Chapter 10: The Abandoned Tai Dragon Sect—A Grand Gift for Ye Bufan (Please Recommend and Bookmark)
“Kill the rebels.”
Li Xuan’s expression remained calm. Behind him, figures darted through the sky, swiftly descending upon the Tai Long Sect.
The elders of the Li family smiled as they brought up the rear. One elder raised his hand, and a massive formation diagram spun and expanded, instantly enveloping the entire Tai Long Sect!
A blockade!
The entire Tai Long Sect was sealed off!
In the great city, silence fell. People watched as the sect was shrouded by the formation, their throats tightening, faces paling.
A burly man touched his arm and whispered, “Is Tai Long Sect really gone just like that?”
Nearby, others murmured softly, afraid to speak too loudly, as if fearing to disturb something.
“Most likely, yes. Tai Long Sect is finished.”
“This is unbelievable!”
“What exactly is the Li family’s background?”
They spoke in hushed tones, terrified. Street vendors nearby were already preparing to flee.
It was terrifying—a once mighty immortal sect, the Tai Long Sect, had been utterly destroyed!
They needed to leave for a while, to observe how things unfolded.
In a teahouse, amidst the quiet, a sudden scraping sound caught everyone’s attention as a strong man knocked over a teacup, then forced a sheepish smile at the others.
“Tai Long Sect has been wiped out!”
“Do you think the sect master could have resisted?”
“Highly unlikely. Crushing the sect’s protective formation with a single step—how could the sect master possibly withstand that?”
Their conversation flowed.
On the stairs, an old man held a little girl’s hand as they ascended, overhearing the talk. The girl looked up confused. “Grandpa, is Tai Long Sect gone?”
The old man’s face twitched; how was he to answer? Who knew the true strength of this Li family?
He said nothing, and a voice came from upstairs.
“Tai Long Sect is definitely gone. I had a premonition—maybe this was all caused by Ye Bufan.”
That was the pessimistic expert.
“Not necessarily. The Li family’s actions are wrong. Aren’t they afraid the Tai Long Sect master will retaliate against their disciples? It’s madness. Where did this Li family come from? Not afraid of a Tai Long Sect master at the Refining Void realm!”
In a corner, a figure wearing a straw hat set down his wine cup abruptly and said, “Don’t count on the Tai Long Sect master. That head that flew out earlier—that’s the one you think is the sect master.”
Suddenly, the teahouse fell silent, deathly quiet. Comparing the sect master’s face to that severed head…
The man with the mustache trembled as he held his cup, which slipped and shattered on the floor.
…
Inside Tai Long Sect, disciples were thrown into chaos. The deputy sect master’s face was stunned—the sect’s great formation had been shattered in an instant!
How was this possible?!
Elder disciples panicked, visiting guests swallowed nervously, all frantic.
They never expected something like this would happen during the ceremony!
They were doomed!
Mo Yao furrowed her brow and said calmly and gravely, “Yin Granny, your assistance is needed.”
Yin Granny forced a smile and nodded slightly, “Yes, Miss.”
After speaking, Yin Granny looked up, then vanished and reappeared before Li Xuan. Without hesitation, she raised her hand and drew the hairpin from her head, slashing it toward Li Xuan.
“This ends here!”
The aura of the Harmonized Realm caused everyone in Tai Long Sect to tremble.
But before anyone could react, Li Xuan turned his hand and struck the air. With a loud crack, Yin Granny staggered, her body exploding in a mist of blood.
She was slammed to the ground with earth-shattering force.
Yin Granny crashed deep into the earth, creating a pit, stones scattering everywhere. She lay there, life uncertain.
“Yin Granny!” Mo Yao cried out.
“Disable every one of Tai Long Sect’s disciples!” Li Xuan ordered calmly.
The deputy sect master immediately stepped forward, took a deep breath, cupped his hands respectfully, “Honored ancestor of the Li family, we do not know where Tai Long Sect has offended your Li family. We are willing to compensate.”
Li Xuan glanced at him coldly and shook his head, “It is Tai Long Sect’s Ye Bufan who offended me. As for compensation, it is unnecessary.”
He snapped his fingers, and an immense force instantly pierced through the deputy sect master. His body exploded, and a powerful spiritual aura radiated outward.
Only his severed head remained, shock frozen on his face.
Li Qingqing, standing beside a Li family member, witnessed the scene. Unlike the others’ excitement, she felt uneasy—deeply uncomfortable.
The ancestor was too extreme.
Li Xuan strode forward. A table was dragged down, and he sat atop the elevated platform in the martial arena’s center. Pouring a cup of tea, he looked toward the deputy sect master’s remains.
“I will personally avenge my grievances.”
The battle within Tai Long Sect quickly ended. The disciples were incapacitated and gathered together.
Li Xuan did not allow anyone to harm the guests who had come to witness.
Mo Yao glared at Li Xuan, feeling deeply disturbed by what she saw. She was unharmed for now, but her worry for Ye Bufan grew.
She approached. Li Xuan watched her with interest. This was a girl of destiny.
He had already received two system alerts about Mo Yao.
He gained some villain points.
“Ancestor Li, I do not know what offense Brother Bufan has committed against the Li family!”
“I advise you to release Tai Long Sect! You even injured my protector! You owe an apology!”
Mo Yao spoke confidently. She came from the Mo family, a clan of saints, and was the most favored daughter of the clan head!
“An apology?” Li Xuan smiled and casually sealed Mo Yao’s cultivation, ordering her to move aside.
[You have shocked the destined daughter Mo Yao, gaining 680 villain points and extending your lifespan by one.]
Mo Yao was dragged away, bewildered. She shouted, “Li family! I am from the saintly Mo family, the clan head’s daughter! Dare you attack Tai Long Sect? The Mo family will never forgive you!”
Li Xuan took a sip of tea and said calmly, “Very well, I await the Mo family’s arrival. You may summon them now.”
Mo Yao was stunned, staring incredulously at Li Xuan. Their Mo family was a saintly clan. Why was this man not afraid?
At that moment, a severed head flew out, and the Tai Long Sect master roared furiously, “Li Xuan! You break your word!”
The sect master looked over the ruined disciples, eyes blazing with hatred.
The sect master?!
Everyone recognized him immediately—it was their leader!
Yet the sect master was reduced to a severed head!
Just like the deputy sect master!
What on earth had happened?
The entire Tai Long Sect was bewildered. They could not understand how their sect had fallen so suddenly, how they had been ambushed, slaughtered, and crippled!
Li Xuan tapped the table, frowning in annoyance, then looked at the sect master.
“You supported Ye Bufan in his forced marriage, humiliating me and the Li family. Is it not natural that Tai Long Sect has come to this ruin?”
The sect master faltered.
Li Xuan sneered and swept his gaze over all the disciples and elders.
“If you blame anyone, blame your sect master and Ye Bufan. They dared humiliate me; Ye Bufan forced marriage, your sect master supported it, so this is your fate.”
Ye Bufan?!
Forced marriage by Ye Bufan?!
The disciples and elders finally understood why they had been crippled.
Mo Yao clenched her fist and shouted, “Impossible! Brother Bufan is only mine!”
Li Xuan ignored her. The sect master took a deep breath and said solemnly, “No… it’s not Ye Bufan’s fault. It’s mine.”
He looked at Li Xuan. “Do not attempt to sow discord between us and Bufan!”
Immediately, the disciples echoed in agreement.
“Yes, Brother Bufan is not that kind of person!”
“You want to sow discord between us and Brother Bufan? We will never let you succeed!”
“We believe in Brother Bufan!”
“Brother Bufan is the Supreme Double-Pupil! He will save us!”
Li Xuan clapped his hands. “Such touching loyalty. I almost shed tears. Rest assured, your feelings for Ye Bufan will be known to him.”
A Li family elder arrived. “Ancestor, all preparations are complete.”
Li Xuan smiled and nodded. “Then send this great gift to Ye Bufan. I hope he likes it.”
