Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 447 - 444 Miao Territory Trembles [First Update]
Chapter 447: Chapter 444 Miao Territory Trembles [First Update]
When the news of Yingg Gui’s death, the Deputy Sect Master of Yin Ghost Sect, spread, Miao Territory trembled in horror.
The morale in Yin Ghost Sect was disturbed and enveloped by an ominous deathly stillness.
Having clashed with Immortal Master Li three times, they had already lost five Elders and one Deputy Sect Master. freēnovelkiss.com
Now, besides Elders Ancestor Yin Ghost, only three Elders remained. The top-tier masters had suffered heavy casualties, seemingly returning overnight to the state of chaos before liberation.
Elder Tuu Hunxing stepped forward and solemnly reported: "Sect Master, given Immortal Master Li’s vindictive nature, this matter will certainly not end peacefully. We must prepare in advance!"
Ancestor Yin Ghost indifferently nodded, asking: "Elder Tuu, according to your opinion, how should we deal with Immortal Master Li?"
After considering, Tuu Hunxing said: "Our Yin Ghost Sect has eight thousand disciples and the geographical advantage of the mountains and rivers. It’s like having the harmony of heaven and earth. We only need to set up the Earth Network on Yin Ghost Mountain. As soon as Immortal Master Li dares to attack, we will ensure he has no return!"
Although his proposal seemed a bit like hiding like a turtle, it also had the highest safety factor.
After all, losing face is better than losing lives.
Thus, it immediately received the support of the majority present.
After all, even Deputy Sect Master Yingg Gui had been slain by Immortal Master Li. Apart from the Sect Master, which other Elder or Deacon dared to confront him head-on?
Another Elder, Ha Tianba, also shared his concerns.
"Sect Master, the Bai Family has already secretly allied with Immortal Master Li, becoming his willing tools and servants at his command. Moreover, being natives of Miao Territory, they know our terrain like the back of their hand. If Immortal Master Li receives their full support, it could spell significant trouble for us."
Ancestor Yin Ghost snorted angrily: "Hmph, that Bai Wutian is just a spineless loafer—an old man living a dog’s life, shamelessly pledging allegiance to outsiders. He’s not embarrassed, but I feel embarrassed for his Bai ancestors!"
Seizing the opportunity, Ha Tianba spoke: "Sect Master is absolutely right, to deal with external threats, we must first secure internal stability. In my opinion, before Immortal Master Li strikes, we should first annihilate the Bai Family. In doing so, we not only cripple Immortal Master Li but also serve as a warning to others. Let the world see clearly, anyone who dares oppose Yin Ghost Sect will meet the same fate!"
Ancestor Yin Ghost nodded, stating: "Good, let’s follow Elder Ha’s advice, start mobilizing troops immediately and annihilate the Bai Family!"
To give Immortal Master Li a harsh lesson and intimidate other clan powers, the remaining three Elders of Yin Ghost Sect went to battle, leaving only Sect Master Ancestor Yin Ghost to guard their base.
Furthermore, they offered substantial rewards to form alliances with Heavenly Demon Sect, Witch God Sect, and the Hei, Mon, Ke, Jing, and Tud Families.
In an instant, storm clouds gathered, sweeping across Miao Territory. The shadow of Death God loomed over the Ten Thousand Mountains.
When the news reached the Bai Family, it struck like a bolt from the blue, causing panic among the people of Bai Family Village.
Some malicious individuals even prepared to overthrow the newly appointed Family Head Bai Yaoyao and deliver her to Yin Ghost Mountain in submission to beg for their lives.
However, they were all suppressed by Bai Wutian.
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Chen personally stripping him of his position as Family Head, he was acutely aware that Yin Ghost Sect’s campaign was meant as a show of force, and they would not stop until heads rolled and blood flowed like rivers.
Moreover, even if some lives were miraculously spared, what then?
What could these people possibly use to withstand Immortal Master Li’s wrath?
The pressing matter at hand was to seek immediate help from Immortal Master Li. With him present, Bai Family Village could be preserved.
If there really were plans to eradicate Yin Ghost Sect, perhaps their Bai Family could seize this opportunity to rise again in Miao Territory and restore the glory of their ancestors.
By then, it was not unlikely that Li Chen could dominate the entire Miao Family, and possibly even surpass the other five families, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Witch God and Heavenly Demon Two Sects.
However, the Bai Family’s request for aid was ultimately not sent out.
Because, before that, Immortal Master Li had already arrived.
Inside the main hall of the Bai Family Village, Li Chen sat at the head of the table, with Family Head Bai Yaoyao, serving him tea and water like a maid.
If last year Bai Yaoyao was still an inconspicuous Cinderella,
then this year, she had transformed into a beautiful princess.
At the tender age of seventeen, she was graceful and delicate, with eyebrows like Emei and red lips and white teeth. Moreover, to welcome Li Chen, she had deliberately applied light makeup and drew on eye shadow. Light makeup or heavy, both suit her, giving off a hint of Xishi’s allure.
Even Li Chen, upon seeing her for the first time, was taken aback.
But that was all.
"Yaoyao, how have you been this past year?"
Bai Yaoyao bowed gracefully to Li Chen and smiled brightly, "Thanks to your great fortune, everything has been well!"
Li Chen nodded slightly, indicating her to be less formal.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Bai Yaoyao, Li Chen steered the conversation to the business of this visit.
Although Bai Wutian had been stripped of his position as the Family Head by Li Chen, the actual control over the Bai Family still remained in his hands.
Moreover, Bai Yaoyao, still young and lacking both experience and ability, was not capable of winning people’s approval for the position of Family Head. She merely served as the spokesperson for Immortal Master Li, conveying his will.
Bai Wutian bowed to Li Chen, reporting all the information he knew.
"Immortal Master Li, we have received confirmed intel that the remaining three Elders of Yin Ghost Sect, Ha Tianba, Tud Tu, and Tuu Hunxing, leading over a thousand disciples, are already on their way here."
"Also, Hei Family, Mon Family, and Jing Family have sent their experts to assist. Tud Family and Ke Family have declared neutrality, while the Heavenly Demon Sect and Witch God Sect have yet to send any clear messages. It appears they want to watch from the sidelines and reap the benefits of this fight."
Li Chen nodded, his expression unwavering, "Good, I know. No matter how many come, just wipe them out!"
"And that Hei Family, Mon Family, and Jing Family, really remember the benefits but not the past lessons. This time, along with wiping out the Yin Ghost Sect, we will also erase these three families from the map of Miao Territory!"
Li Chen spoke casually, but his few words aimed to wipe out a sect and three families. Such dominance frightened even Bai Wutian into a cold sweat.
His original expectation, even if everything went smoothly, was at most to severely weaken them.
But Li Chen, on the other hand, planned on annihilating them completely.
Such courage and scale were far beyond what the Bai Family could handle.
Hesitating for a moment, Bai Wutian ventured to say, "Immortal Master Li, Yin Ghost Sect, Hei Family, Jing Family, and Mon Family have been established in Miao Territory for over a hundred years, their influence deeply entrenched and their foundations profound. Eradicating them won’t be an easy task!"
Li Chen smiled faintly, seemingly intrigued, "Then let’s see whose bones are harder, or whose teeth are sharper?"
...
