Chapter 189: Let Bygones Be Bygones
Chapter 189: Let Bygones Be Bygones
[Skill deactivated!]
[Congratulations! Through your cunning strategy and your clan's valiant cooperation, you have slain over two million cultivators from the Azure Cloud region, including a total of 36 Golden Core cultivators, and captured one Nascent Soul cultivator!]
[A large number of spoils of war acquired.]
[7 complete Golden Core cultivator corpses, 17 complete Spirit Weapons. Various Golden Core cultivator fragments, 1 Nascent Soul cultivator thigh fragment, various Spirit Weapon fragments...]
[Your clan members witnessed your valiant struggle, Ancestor. They express their utmost respect and admiration, granting you 20,000 incense merit points!]
"Whew~"
In his room, facing the screen, Li Wei numbly manipulated the computer mouse. Only when he saw Li Dalong enter the Skyveil Sect in the game did his pale face regain some color.
This was his second time entering the game world, and this time, he had died!
Although it wouldn't affect him in the real world, still the pain and fear of that moment remained vivid in his memory.
"It's no big deal. I only died once."
Li Wei rubbed his face, looking at the Li family descendants surrounding the Skyveil Sect on the screen, the mushroom cloud still rising in the image, and... the little girl being restrained by Li Yaowen.
A smile finally spread across his face. "I won!" he exclaimed.
He clearly saw the final moments of the Dongfeng missile explosion; he had ignited the missile with his dantian fire.
He saw Abbot Wuyou narrowly escaping, his muscles bulging once again. That old monk was indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator, and a rare body cultivator at that. While fleeing, he even managed to punch Long Xuankong's golden scale barrier. Just as Li Wei had predicted, the trap set by the three Nascent Soul cultivators had backfired on them!
Long Xuankong was also momentarily delayed by the Blood Frenzy Demon Lord's self-destruction. His golden scales seemed to be a Natal Spirit Weapon, and Abbot Wuyou's punch caused him to erupt in curses.
In the end, Long Xuankong took out a talisman and vanished from his spot.
As expected of Nascent Soul experts. Despite Li Wei's meticulous planning, he couldn't manage to keep either of them there.
The only one who remained...
Li Wei looked at the little girl being restrained beside Li Yaowen.
"Xuan Tianzi!"
Li Wei grinned. In that battle, Xuan Tianzi was undoubtedly the most unfortunate one.
She had been in the process of abandoning her charged attack, suffering the backlash when Li Dalong's coffin lid blocked her path for a moment. She also bore the brunt of the nuclear explosion!
Clicking on Xuan Tianzi, Li Wei saw her important information.
[Xuan Tianzi]
[Realm: Early-stage Nascent Soul]
[Status: Severely injured, Nascent Soul greatly damaged, Suppressed]
"As expected of a Nascent Soul cultivator, she still hasn't died from this."
Li Wei let out a long breath. Only after facing them did he truly understand how difficult it was to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator. But now, with Xuan Tianzi's ability to recover suppressed, she was as good as dead.
If the family didn't have a significant use for her, they would have already destroyed her Nascent Soul.
Soon, notification windows popped up before Li Wei's eyes, signifying their victory in this battle!
[Special Event - The Family's Valiant Counterattack.]
[Your family lay dormant for seven years, slaughtering those who opposed the Li family. The death toll reached over two million. You suppressed the Azure Cloud Pavilion and set a trap outside the Skyveil Sect, annihilating thirty-two Golden Core experts, repelling two, and capturing one Nascent Soul expert.]
[Congratulations! Your family has established a formidable reputation in the Azure Cloud region. The trait 'Family of Outlaws' has transformed into — Bloodstained Family!]
[People throughout the Azure Cloud region witnessed the rising mushroom cloud, and news of the Li family's overwhelming victory has spread. The people of the Azure Cloud region will be filled with fear towards the Li family. Previous stat boosts have been altered: All family members, Presence +20%, Likeability -50%, Desperation Combat Power +8%.]
"...."
Li Wei was momentarily stunned. The 'Family of Outlaws' trait had a likeability rating of -99%, meaning they were public enemy number one. Now it was 50%, which meant that despite capturing a Nascent Soul cultivator, the family still had half of the Azure Cloud region as their enemies.
Although they might fear the Li family's terrifying power, it wouldn't stop them from being two-faced and treacherous.
"In other words, the Li family is still in grave danger. The missile is gone. Even if we had more, if another Nascent Soul cultivator comes next time, they won't fall for the same trick again."
Li Wei frowned.
Soon, another notification window appeared.
[Special Event - The Pig Demon King's Sacrifice, completed!]
[Group Trait 'Year of Red Snow' has transformed into — Year of Bloodshed!]
[Your descendants will forever remember the 'Year of Red Snow,' permanently increasing their cultivation speed by 5%. As long as they remain on Azure Cloud region soil, they will remember the family's achievements today, recall the might of their ancestors, and gain a 20% increase in incense merit points during worship.]
[Incense merit points +20000 acquired!]
Li Wei smiled slightly.
He had already figured it out. Each Qi Refining descendant's worship would grant him a maximum of around 300 incense merit points per year. Foundation Establishment cultivators provided 1000 points, and Golden Core cultivators around 3000 incense merit points.
This time, he had used all the incense merit points accumulated over the years for cultivation, and after entering the game world, only the reward points remained.
Being able to increase his incense merit points was a great thing for him.
Besides that...
Li Wei looked at the Li family descendants surrounding the Skyveil Sect.
At this moment, after their continuous acts of revenge, they no longer harbored the initial anger and resentment.
After a bout of unrestrained sobbing, they had found closure.
The emergence of the "Year of Bloodshed" trait also signified that they had moved on from the sorrow of the Pig Demon King's death. Hatred could drive a person's growth, but continuous hatred would only lead to madness.
Let bygones be bygones. The enemies were dead. The Li family would only carry the memory and respect for Old Pig as they moved forward on their future path.
