Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 180: He Was A Warrior. And You, You Are A Coward

Elder Qiuye had just fled with Xiao Huang when the silver coffin arrived right behind them. The Li family members calmly watched the direction of Qiuye's escape, but they couldn't conceal the hatred and fury in their eyes.

"Saintess, Patriarch Li."

The Drunken Madman cupped his hands towards the Li family members in greeting. He certainly wouldn't have done this before; he wouldn't even bow to the Saintess. But after seeing what Li Dalong was capable of, and the family led by such a man, he felt compelled to show his respect.

Especially beside the coffin stood Li Tianming, who, in his memory, always enjoyed killing people for fun. Li Tianming was holding a pole with several withered skins hanging from it. Based on his experience, it was clear at a glance that these skins were: three Golden Cores cultivators and a group of False Core Formation cultivators.

Looking above the coffin, he saw threads wrapped around cultivators who had been flayed. These people were still alive, wailing in agony.

"They're all still alive?" Li Yaoqing casually asked.

"I let them go. They're fleeing towards the Skyveil Sect. I've crippled their cultivation, leaving them with barely any spirit power. Their realm has fallen to the early stage of Golden Core."

The Drunken Madman couldn't help but glance at the Li family's handiwork. It seemed he had learned something, suppressing the urge to imitate them. He frowned and said, "Are you really going to the Skyveil Sect? Right now, none of the sects and clans will let you off easily, especially those with Nascent Soul cultivators."

"Your Li family, in just a century, has already attained such strength. Now that you've revealed yourselves again, the major powers in Azure Cloud will be even more eager to destroy you. This is no longer just a simple matter of hatred between your Li family and that adulterous pair."

"Resources here are limited. The emergence of a powerful family like yours is no different from taking food from their mouths."

"If I were you..."

The Drunken Madman said with a wry smile, "...after taking revenge, I would simply leave Azure Cloud region. I can guarantee that right now, all the sects and clans are already converging on your location. Going to the Skyveil Sect would be like tying yourselves up."

Li Dalong shook his head and cupped his hands towards the Drunken Madman. "Thank you for your advice, Senior," he said. "We are grateful for your assistance this time, and the Li family will remember it. However, we dare not trouble you further on our path ahead."

"You... are still going?!"

The Drunken Madman's eyes widened.

Although the Li family hadn't said much to him, only asking him to intercept Qiuye and Xiao Huang'er and then let them go, he could tell that they were intentionally heading toward the Skyveil Sect.

He still couldn't understand where the Li family got the courage to actively head toward the Skyveil Sect.

As they were speaking, the Li family members cupped their hands towards him in farewell, and the silver coffin soared off into the distance in pursuit!

"They're even crazier than those damn demon cultivators in the Demon Cave!"

The Drunken Madman guzzled down a mouthful of wine. Looking at the direction the Li family was heading, he felt an indescribable admiration and chased after them.

...

"Escape! I must escape back!"

On the spirit shuttle, Elder Qiuye's face was pale. He was incredibly terrified. He vaguely understood why the Drunken Madman had let him go, but he had no other choice!

He heard an eerie voice from behind him.

"The Drunken Madman was right about you. You still want to run." Xiao Huang seemed to regain a moment of clarity but quickly returned to her crazed state. She raised the battered bundle, a horrifying smile spreading across her bloodstained face. "Look, Qiuye," she cackled, "the child is calling for its mother! Hahaha, we have a child!"

Qiuye gritted his teeth, but he didn't have time to deal with this madwoman.

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically.

A voice boomed from above the clouds, resounding like a great bell, filled with resentment and malice!

"When you chased after my Li family's in-law, did he also flee like this?"

He saw him, Li Dalong!

That bastard who had smashed all his hopes with a single blow from his coffin was chasing after him!

Li Dalong's spirit coffin was even faster than his spirit shuttle.

"Seven years," Li Dalong's voice boomed. "Xiao Huang has felt the pain of losing her loved ones. Do you know why our Li family spared your lives for seven years?"

Li Dalong slowly drew a large saber with a ghost head design, his voice like that of the King of Hell. "Because only she felt it," he continued, "but you, the mastermind behind it all, would find it difficult to truly understand. It's a pity your family is all dead. When we heard you wanted another child, we waited patiently for seven years. You deserve to feel the pain that my children felt when they lost their loved ones."

"Do you understand now?"

Hearing this, Elder Qiuye's eyes widened in fury. He finally understood.

Seven years ago, when the 'Tower' of the nine generations of the Xiao family was erected at the Azure Cloud Pavilion, he thought the Li family's revenge was over. But... that was just the beginning!

For these past seven years, they had been waiting for this day, waiting for Xiao Huang to give birth, waiting for him to place his hopes on this soon-to-be-born child.

The Li family aimed to destroy not only their lives, but also their souls!

And now...

"Flee with all your might, just like Old Pig fled back then! Run like that!"

Li Dalong's face was contorted with rage. He poured all his spirit power into the ghost head saber, and a massive blade shadow slashed toward the spirit shuttle!

Amidst the sound of the saber ripping through the air, Li Dalong's roar echoed, "Do you think only you can brutally murder?! Now, you cowardly waste who only knows how to run, and that madwoman beside you, remember! Remember how you hunted down Old Pig that day!!!"

"Beasts! You Li family beasts!"

Elder Qiuye, his heart filled with terror and rage, cursed loudly. His Golden Core began to burn as he frantically urged the spirit shuttle to fly faster.

He truly remembered.

He remembered that day, when the Pig Demon King, just like them today, was battered and wounded, chased back towards Tailin Town.

He felt it.

He felt that desperate desire to survive, that yearning to return to the Skyveil Sect!

But...

"BOOM!!!"

The massive blade shadow struck the protective shield that Elder Qiuye had hastily erected with his spiritual power. The tremendous force propelled the spirit shuttle forward, accelerating its flight. In this moment, Qiuye actually felt a surge of gratitude that he was moving even faster!

Watching the spirit shuttle fleeing in the distance, Li Dalong, standing atop the Deathbringer Coffin, narrowed his eyes and shook his head. "Unfortunately," he said, "you're not Old Pig, and you're not worthy of being him. When Old Pig returned, it wasn't to save his own life. He came to bring the message back to our Li family. For that, he didn't even bother defending himself, using all his spiritual power to escape."

"He was a warrior. And you, you are a coward."
