ALL NOVEL Chapter 50
The head of the Xue Family looked at his son’s bloody severed arm, heartache in his voice, “As long as you’re alive, it’s fine. We’ll just need to reattach your hand!”
“What about the young master’s hand? Answer me!” The head of the Xue Family turned sharply to question his underling.
“Reporting to the family head, it seems the young master’s hand fell into the lake!” the subordinate stammered.
“What are you standing there for? Go find it now!”
“Yes!”
The head of the Xue Family’s expression darkened as he gazed at the Hat Man, who was barely clinging to life, bloodied all over.
The look in the Hat Man’s eyes was full of resentment, making him feel a chill in his heart.
Swish!
The Ancestor of the Xue Family arrived beside him, hands behind his back, coldly stating, “If I hadn’t intervened, your useless son would be dead by now.”
“Greetings, Ancestor!”
The head of the Xue Family cupped his hands in respect.
“Thank you, Ancestor, for saving my life! I, Tianyi, will forever remember this!” Xue Tianyi said excitedly.
“Enough, we’re all family here.”
The Ancestor of the Xue Family waved his hand, his icy gaze fixed on the Hat Man, his voice radiating an unyielding authority:
“Now tell me, who sent you? How dare you create a ruckus at my banquet, you clearly don’t respect me!”
He had broken through to the Virtual Immortal realm, declaring it to the world, and yet someone had the audacity to come and assassinate his grandson at such a moment?
It was a blatant provocation!
Regardless of which force was behind this, he would use ruthless means to exact revenge!
“Who sent me? Hahaha…” The Hat Man laughed maniacally, his laughter dripping with mockery.
But within it, there was also a hint of sorrow!
“This dog is guilty of countless crimes, and justice can’t let him go. It’s a pity you intervened; otherwise, I would definitely have killed him!” the Hat Man yelled.
Clearly, this was a personal vendetta.
The Ancestor of the Xue Family frowned, “Tianyi, do you know him?”
Xue Tianyi replied angrily, “Ancestor, this man is a lunatic! I don’t know him at all! He’s got a screw loose, determined to kill me!”
In Xue Tianyi’s eyes, this was pure misfortune!
“Hmph! My son doesn’t know you! Who on earth are you?” The head of the Xue Family was furious, waving his sleeve as he scolded.
The Hat Man spat out a mouthful of bloodied saliva, growling fiercely, “Listen well, your grandfather is none other than Li Wujie!”
“What? You’re Li Wujie?!”
Gasps erupted from the crowd.
One guest murmured, “He—he’s the Blade Demon, Li Wujie!”
The Blade Demon Li Wujie was quite famous in the Eastern Domain’s several states for his fast and accurate swordplay, and he had no rules. Anyone he deemed undesirable would be cut down regardless of their background or status!
He had even roamed Yun Province like a madman, searching for strong opponents to hone his sword skills, and those who crossed paths with him often ended up ruined and infamous!
For a long time, cultivators in Yun Province had lived in fear, terrified of being targeted by Li Wujie!
And yet, this guy had come to assassinate the young master of the Xue Family?!
If this got out, it would definitely be explosive news!
“Damn it, how did our Xue Family’s invitation end up in the hands of such a Demonic Cultivator?”
The head of the Xue Family looked grim as he shouted at his subordinates.
“Stop shouting; I took it myself.” Li Wujie sneered.
The head of the Xue Family was left speechless.
“Blade Demon Li Wujie?”
Xue Tianyi gritted his teeth, “I’ve heard of you, but I’ve never seen you before! I have no grudges against you; why are you attempting to assassinate me?”
“No grudges?”
Li Wujie’s emotions nearly boiled over, he growled, “My sister died at your hands!!”
“Your sister?”
Xue Tianyi was taken aback.
“My sister is Li Xiaofei. We were inseparable from childhood. Later, we embarked on the path of cultivation together in the Eastern Domain. That year, my sister broke through to the Golden Core and planned to travel to Ling Province to see the best flower sea in the Eastern Domain. I was obsessed with cultivating my sword skills and didn’t accompany her. A few months later, I received a shattered jade slip she left behind, and that’s when I realized she had encountered an accident in Ling Province.”
Li Wujie’s eyes were bloodshot, his tone filled with deep regret: “I rushed to Ling Province, asking around, spending nearly all my money until I got a crucial piece of information: my sister had a conflict with you at the Drunken Immortal Tower in Anyang City. Then she was captured by your Xue Family guards and never appeared again.”
“Everyone in Anyang City knows that you, Xue Tianyi, the young master of the Xue Family, are extremely fond of women! There are even rumors that you’re practicing some evil techniques in secret, tormenting countless innocent female cultivators to death, and my sister, being a Golden Core Cultivator, must have fallen into your clutches at that time!”
“I can’t imagine the inhumane treatment my sister suffered before her death! All of this is because of you! Xue Tianyi! Since that day, I’ve sworn to take revenge, no matter the cost!”
“Later, I trained harder and sought out people to spar with to enhance my power. Finally, over a hundred years ago, I broke through to the Combined Body realm, and then I began to look for chances to seek revenge. But I found that every time you went out, there was a group of powerful guards following you. If I struck recklessly, I would surely fail, so I had no choice but to lie low and search for opportunity, and this banquet hosted by the Xue Family was the perfect time for me to assassinate you!”
“Just like they say, the most dangerous places are often the safest. I planned to strike on the territory of the Xue Family because that would be when you’re the most relaxed—my success rate would be higher. But I never expected…”
Li Wujie’s voice filled with unwillingness as he roared, “Your damn life is really tough! You’re really hard to kill, aren’t you!? I was just one step away! Just one step!!”
Hearing the whole story, many guests looked enlightened, their eyes filled with awe for Li Wujie.
Everyone knew that the young master of the Xue Family had a notorious reputation as the first wastrel in Ling Province, long rumored to engage in immoral acts, but given his powerful background, he ran rampant in Ling Province without anyone daring to provoke him.
Whereas Li Wujie, although frightening as the Blade Demon, had a reputation that was many times better than someone like Xue Tianyi!
It was a pity that this fearsome Blade Demon was about to meet his end in the Xue Family’s mansion today!
“Drunken Immortal Tower, Li Xiaofei…”
Xue Tianyi calmed down, frowning as he fell into his memories. Then, looking at the bloodied Li Wujie, he smirked with a teasing smile, “I see, now I remember, that little firecracker is your sister!”
He had harmed countless female cultivators, and while many would fade from memory over time, some stood out, even after years, worth reminiscing about.
For instance, Li Wujie’s sister was one of them!
“I still remember, her figure was quite stunning, but her temper was like a firecracker, ready to explode at any moment. But a woman like her is much more satisfying to tame!”
“I once approached her at the Drunken Immortal Tower, and she outright rejected me. So, I had my men capture her and tie her to my bed. At that time, she looked angry, hurling insults at me, but after a while, what I did to her made her break down and beg for mercy—oh, that voice was truly delightful…”
Xue Tianyi seemed to reminisce, clicking his tongue, “That fiery mare was really something, but ultimately all would be obedient under my command!”
“Stop talking! Stop talking!” Li Wujie’s face wracked with pain, tears streaming down his face.
The more Li Wujie reacted, the more excited Xue Tianyi became, “I tormented her for three days and nights. At that time, she was completely helpless and out of her mind. I found it boring, so I just choked her neck, ending her life in a very merciful manner.”
“Li Wujie, I treated your sister so well, and yet you’re willing to kill me? Shouldn’t you be grateful to me? Hahaha…”
Boom!
At those words,
Li Wujie completely broke down, tears streaming down his face as he screamed hysterically, “You beast! You damn beast! Why hasn’t someone like you died! Why are you still alive?! I will kill you, kill you ahhhhhh!”
