Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 1203: Chapter 1197: Two Daos

“He possesses two Daos: Light and Shadow.”

The Nirvana Sage Elder’s soul floated in the main hall.

Having completely lost all hope, he figured he might as well spill everything—at least he could drag some others down with him.

“Two Daos?”

The expressions of the family members darkened.

“Yes, Light and Shadow.” The Nirvana Sage Elder said numbly,

“The only time I fought him was alongside the Rising Sun and the Dragon Bird.

That was also after we discovered that Min Tiange had planted Dao Seeds among our tribesmen, leading us to set an ambush to fight him.”

“He actually fell into your ambush?” Li Yaoqing was doubtful.

If the Nirvana Sage Elder had the ability to ambush Min Tiange, what had the Department of Immortal Suppression and the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion been doing all this time?

However, the Nirvana Sage Elder’s next words made everyone’s hearts grow heavier.

“Yes, but he never cared in the slightest whether we set a trap for him.”

The Nirvana Sage Elder gave a bitter laugh.

“His Daos of Light and Shadow allow him to transform into light, which is the absolute limit of speed in this world.”

“He can transform into a shadow, and where in the world are there no shadows? He is omnipresent. Arrays, barriers, Dharma Treasures—none of them can trap him.”

“He said we were still useful, and that was the only reason we were allowed to live after daring to offend him.”

Li Wei calculated in his mind.

Which was faster: Min Tiange’s Light and Shadow, or his spatial rules? It was just that his spatial rules were far from reaching the realm of a ‘Dao’.

Li Wei also admitted that if the family were to fight Min Tiange, even now, they only had the ability to protect themselves.

Between the Dao-Glimpsing realm and the Dao Integration realm lay a massive gap in cultivation; it had taken him and Ah Tie over a year of combined effort just to deal with Uncle Rain.

Thinking of this, Li Wei slightly raised his hand, looking at the spatial ring he held.

Inside the ring floated two long spears.

One was a blue long spear—Uncle Rain’s lifebound Spirit Treasure.

The other was the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear that had collapsed during the great battle.

There were also many, many other items inside. He believed that once he fully digested Uncle Rain’s final gift, his combat power would elevate to another level.

The same applied to his descendants.

He then asked the Nirvana Sage Elder, “Since you already knew you were no match for him, you still dared to investigate him? You certainly have guts.”

“Because you were also investigating him.” The Nirvana Sage Elder’s words astonished everyone.

“The Department of Immortal Suppression?” Li Wei raised an eyebrow.

Unexpectedly, the Nirvana Sage Elder shook his head.

“Many, very many. Our Wu Tribe breaking the old rules and invading the Imperial Dynasty involved many coincidences.

The Human Emperor’s physical condition, the cooperation with the Demon Tribe, and the matter of the Dao Seeds were only part of it.

I was sent to test the waters because, within our Wu Tribe, we felt a threat.”

“A threat?” The more Li Wei inquired, the more bizarre the Western Frontier seemed.

Back then, Nirvana had charged in with such unbridled arrogance, yet now he claimed he had felt a threat.

Seeming to hear the confusion in Li Wei’s words, the Nirvana Sage Elder said,

“Threats and karmic opportunities are equivalent. Your Crown Prince was in the Western Frontier for over a hundred years cultivating the Corpse-Stitching Art; how could that escape our eyes? He was merely a puppet on Min Tiange’s strings.”

The corners of Li Wei’s mouth twitched. Turning around, he realized that from top to bottom, inside and out, the entire Western Frontier was filled with scheming old bastards.

Their Li Clan was the only group of honest people.

“Crown Prince Fei Heng spent over a hundred years in the Western Frontier secretly cultivating the Corpse-Stitching Art, using the entire Southern Frontier as his foundation.

His schemes were grand, yet he was entirely preparing a dowry for Min Tiange.

Many factions within your Imperial Dynasty were paying close attention to the Western Frontier, but they turned a blind eye and let it happen.”

“Damn it,” Li Wei cursed silently. No wonder back at the Dusheng Nunnery, hardly anyone cared about Fei Heng’s safety.

Under normal circumstances, protecting the Crown Prince should have been the main priority, but in the end, only Perfected Qinghe from the relatively honest Heavenly Secrets Pavilion went to save him.

So everyone already knew there was something wrong with Fei Heng.

“Within your Imperial Dynasty, a group of people wanted to see if Crown Prince Fei Heng could truly grow.

If he could, then so what if the great war in the Western Frontier served as a dowry to strengthen his Corpse-Stitching Art?”

The Nirvana Sage Elder sneered.

“Another group of people were also waiting—waiting for Crown Prince Fei Heng to put on a show so that Wenren Xianyi could seize supreme power over the Imperial Dynasty.”

“But the true victor was Min Tiange.”

“For over a decade under the Blood Moon in the Western Frontier, did anyone ever care?”

Li Wei’s breath hitched. Yes, their Li Clan cared constantly, always thinking about how to take down that son of a bitch and stuff him back into Min Youguo’s pants!

“The only ones who truly cared were us.” The Nirvana Sage Elder exhaled a long breath.

“We couldn’t investigate exactly what the Blood Moon was. We only knew that the Blood Moon encompassed the entire Western Frontier and was advancing toward our Endless Forest. One day, Min Tiange would use it to become a Mahayana expert.”

“Some in the Imperial Dynasty hoped Min Tiange would reach the Mahayana realm, while others wanted to wait for the moment of his breakthrough to replace him.”

The Nirvana Sage Elder looked at the Li Clan members.

“He is your Imperial Dynasty’s genius, the person with the greatest hope of reaching the Mahayana realm and contending for the imperial throne.

Even though his track record is riddled with misdeeds, there will always be conflicts of interest, and there will be people whose goals align with his.”

“Just like you. You cultivate unorthodox arts, yet there are still people willing to associate with you.”

“…”

The soul was returned into the baby’s body.

Because he cooperated obediently, Li Zhijing placed the Nirvana Sage Elder inside the Old Tree’s body and had Tian Xing feed the Nirvana Sage Elder milk.

The family members sat together, weighed down by heavy thoughts.

The information from the Nirvana Sage Elder’s words was too massive.

Li Chang took a deep breath.

“Old Ancestor, Uncle Rain came to our Azure Cloud Prefecture this time, and a whole year passed. Could it be that Min Tiange didn’t dare to come?”

Li Wei was speechless.

This time, when Uncle Rain came, the family’s reserved trump cards were actually meant to deal with Min Tiange.

Li Wei truly thought Min Tiange was too afraid to come; after all, an expert like Ah Hei was also in Azure Cloud Prefecture.

But hearing that Min Tiange dared to be so arrogant when facing three Body Integration experts after invading the Wu Tribe, he really wasn’t sure anymore.

“Unless he was delayed by something more important… in the Western Frontier.”

Li Chang said calmly, “In truth, there are very few people who would help him.”

“The one in the imperial court.” Li Yaoqing didn’t even need to think much about it.

“Not necessarily.” Li Chang frowned.

“The Empress is not stupid. The child does not believe she would let someone run free whom even the Grand Preceptor cannot control.”

Li Yaoqing’s delicate brows furrowed tightly. She wouldn’t doubt her own child because of the rumors in the Imperial Capital. “Min Youguo?”

Li Yaoqing had always only thought about how to do things, never bothering with these convoluted schemes.

“This child frequently interacts with the Grand Preceptor.” Li Chang smiled bitterly.

“I’m afraid no one in the world wants Min Tiange dead more than the Grand Preceptor. He holds nothing but hatred for Min Tiange.”

“Whoosh.”

As soon as his voice fell, a clear breeze swept through the hall, causing robes to flutter loudly.

Li Chang froze.

Led by the Old Ancestor, the clan members were all sitting in their seats, staring at him with wide, curious eyes, having even brought spiritual fruits to their mouths like they were watching a show.

Experiencing a rare moment of nervousness, Li Chang could only spread his hands.

“How could the Grand Preceptor speak of such matters? It’s just that my observations have never been wrong.

He never mentions Min Tiange, and only shows interest when someone wants to kill Min Tiange.

This child suspects that Ah Hei’s arrival this time was also to lie in wait for Min Tiange.”

Sure enough, a wave of light sighs followed. For the first time, Li Chang felt the clan’s disappointment in him, making him want to go feed milk to the Nirvana Sage Elder.

Li Wei patted his clothes and smiled. “Whether that is the case or not, we will know with a simple question.”

He vanished from the spot.

The Li Clan members were slightly startled.

Li Zhiheng hurriedly walked toward Li Chang. The Old Ancestor’s appearance this time had finally fulfilled the longing he had held since childhood.

Who knew that before he even had time to properly burn incense to the living Old Ancestor in private, the Old Ancestor disappeared.

He hurriedly asked, “Where did the Old Ancestor go?”

The family elders exchanged a glance, the corners of their mouths lifting into smiles.

Li Yaoqing said, “The world is vast; there is nowhere the Old Ancestor cannot go.”

“We are now an Eternal Immortal Clan.”

“It’s about time some people got knocked down a peg.”

…….

Heavenly Palace.

“Dong! Dong! Dong!”

The bell tolled, and all the experts across the entire Heavenly Palace rushed over.

The Department of Immortal Suppression, the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, the Nation-Protecting Guard, the Divine Temple… experts from these powerful factions arrived all at once, densely surrounding the Golden Throne Room.

Above the Heavenly Palace, the protective grand array lit up layer by layer, exuding a powerful coercive pressure.

“Why is the escort bell ringing?”

“I don’t know. The expert protecting the Empress struck the bell.

He said the array formation sensing danger around Her Majesty was triggered, and the intruder even managed to evade the eyes and ears of Body Integration’s mighty figures.”

“An assassin?!! Where is the assassin? Assassinating the Empress in the Imperial Capital… how audacious!”

“…”

Figure after figure arrived simultaneously.

The most powerful batch of experts had already entered the main hall.

Even Ah Hei, who had just returned from Azure Cloud Prefecture, nervously and blankly followed the crowd inside.

Ah Hei didn’t know what had happened either, but since everyone else was going in, it would be too impolite if he didn’t follow.

Looking up from within the crowd, Ah Hei saw the bitch wearing a gloomy face.

Sensing a residual aura in the main hall that was identical to the attack on Uncle Rain’s remains, Ah Hei’s heart skipped a beat.

Good heavens, your fucking guts are even bigger than I thought?

An old man furrowed his brows and asked, “May Your Majesty be safe and well. I merely wonder, why did the warning bell ring today?”

Wenren Xianyi remained expressionless.

Suddenly, someone outside the main hall rushed over hurriedly on a flying sword, completely ignoring the numerous cultivators present.

The crowd was vigilant, but upon sensing the aura of the Wenren family on this person, they frowned and didn’t dare to ask too much.

As soon as the young man entered, he fell to his knees. His face was the color of dirt, his residual fear still lingering as he shouted in panic.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, our… our Wenren family’s rear mountain has been destroyed by someone!

They only left behind a Heavenly Secrets Pavilion token and mask hanging on a crooked-neck tree!”

“…”

The cultivators of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion who had come to the rescue immediately shrank their necks.

The surrounding cultivators all cast their gazes over to them.

The leading old man’s face flushed bright red as he dropped to his knees, “We are falsely accused, Empress! As you well know, bizarre things like this happen all the time!”

At this time.

Li Wei had already returned to the family.

Watching Yaotie holding a blue long spear and his North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear, burning them with Nine Origins True Fire, a faint smile surfaced on his face.

The Spirit Gathering Cauldron was in the sky. He floated into the cloudy sky.

To the side, Sword Venerable Drizzle was dispensing rain, completely unable to see his figure.

“Wenren Xianyi said that she wasn’t the one behind Min Tiange; she only had contact with Uncle Rain.

If it weren’t for the hindrance of the Dao Seed, she would have joined forces with Uncle Rain to kill Min Tiange. Then who on earth is behind Min Tiange?”

Li Wei guessed left and right, but in the end, he wasn’t someone who relied heavily on his brain.

Gazing at the entire Azure Cloud Prefecture, he recalled how he had conveniently dropped by the Wenren Immortal Clan and then taken a trip to the Heavenly Palace.

He grinned broadly, “Everyone has a home, don’t they? Yours is just bigger than mine, and you actually have two, hehe.”
