High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 888 - 425: Ten Years Passed, Divine Skill Effect (Triple Combo)

But only the Li Family is still reluctant to submit.

Of course, the Chen Family is also among them, but the Chen Family now is in name only, no longer kindred spirits with these demigods.

”You all.”

”Have you forgotten what the Chu Family once did?” The voice of the Li Family’s demi-god, Li Qingqiu, turned icy, her cold gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Her words caused all the demigods present to change their expressions.

”Watch your words!”

”Li Qingqiu, this matter has long been set aside,” the Wang Family’s demigod said in a low voice, ”This is forbidden talk, do not bring it up in front of the Chu Family.”

The other demigods nodded in agreement, all deeply apprehensive.

Seeing this scene, the Li Family’s demigod couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

She laughed at their foolishness, their fear of death, and her own powerlessness...

Clearly, evidence of the Chu Family’s betrayal of civilization had been found, so why do these people still uphold the Chu Family?

There was no choice.

Behind the Chu Family stands a God.

A God!

Chu Jingye of the Chu Family was taken as a disciple by the God, and the Chu Family was shrouded in divine might, an untouchable force on Blue Star.

”Even the Alliance Leader Qitian had to retreat,” the Li Family’s demigod sighed inwardly.

Months ago, Alliance Leader Qitian announced his seclusion, presumably to reach a higher realm.

But even if he succeeds, so what?

In front of a God, he is still minuscule.

Qitian claimed seclusion, but everyone knew he had quietly stepped down, unable to fulfill the role of alliance hierarch.

”You say the Ultimate Shadow Calamity was stopped by that God.”

”If He is so powerful, why not directly eradicate the Shadow Race?” the Li Family’s demigod said coldly, ”Instead, He allows the Shadow Disaster to happen repeatedly, watching as the Shadow Race gradually consumes Blue Star. Is this the God you revere?”

”Silence!”

The Wang Family’s demigod’s face changed dramatically, shouting, ”Li Qingqiu, how dare you speak presumptuously about the God?!”

”That God has His reasons for doing so, reasons beyond our understanding.”

”Moreover.”

”Who else but that God could stop the Ultimate Shadow Calamity?” the Wang Family’s demigod said solemnly.

In the past months.

They had sensed signs of the Ultimate Shadow Calamity multiple times, yet each was halted at the last moment.

Such power, who could it be but the God?

”Enough.”

”Li Qingqiu,” the Wang Family’s demigod said in a low voice, ”Do not be stubborn, hand over Jiang Ye.”

”As long as you hand over Jiang Ye, the Chu Family will forgive past offenses against the Li Family,” the Wang Family’s demigod advised.

This was the purpose of their meeting.

To have the Li Family hand over Jiang Ye!

This was the Chu Family’s order.

”Jiang Ye is not with me,” the Li Family’s demigod said flatly, ”Even if he were, I would never surrender him, he is one of mine!”

”Such audacity.”

”Let the Chu Family bring that God then, might as well step over my dead body!” Li Qingqiu shouted coldly, her beautiful face beneath the veil full of resolve.

”You!”

The Wang Family’s demigod’s face turned livid, pointing at Li Qingqiu, momentarily speechless with anger.

As former comrades, he was actually thinking for Li Qingqiu’s good.

Little did he expect her to be so ungrateful.

”What?”

”The Chu Family can’t call upon the God?” Li Qingqiu let out a cold laugh, ”Then don’t think of ordering me, Li Qingqiu, I am not afraid of Chu Wanmo!”

With that said.

Whoosh~ The Li Family’s demigod vanished from the hall, leaving only a breeze in her place.

The many demigods of Blue Star looked at each other, finally letting out a sigh.

Only the Wang Family’s demigod’s eyes flickered, thinking secretly, ”Must I resort to the methods the Chu Family suggested... attack the Chen Family to force Jiang Ye to appear?”

He really didn’t want to resort to such methods unless it was a last resort.

After all, the Wang Family had past interactions with the Chen Family.

”Damn Chu Family, making us play the villain,” the Wang Family’s demigod cursed inwardly, quickly quelling the thought.

As if fearing detection by some terrible being.

...

Time flew by.

Outside, the situation was tumultuous, but Jiang Ye, both in body and spirit, remained engrossed in his secluded cultivation.

In a blink, he had been in this cultivation for nine years.
