Chapter 2631 The Sword Intent of the Martial King
Hearing the sigh from Li Yan, the people present had complicated expressions. No one expected that an unknown young man would have such a powerful background.
They never expected that Qin Fei would receive such high praise.
“Xiao Yanzi, if you just say the word now, I can go and apologize to that young man.”
Just then, the eldest patriarch of the Li family spoke.
Upon hearing his words, Li Yan shook his head with a wry smile: "Great Ancestor, since things have already happened, let's just leave it at that for now."
If the oldest member of the Li family apologizes to Qin Fei, then the Li family will likely never be able to hold their heads high again.
Moreover, the Grand Ancestor is a man who cares about his reputation, and Li Yan would never allow the Grand Ancestor to embarrass himself for his own selfish interests.
Furthermore, even if Li Yan agrees, the rest of the Li family certainly won't.
"Why don't we wait until the patriarch arrives before we talk about this?"
Although quite a few members of the Li family have arrived, they are actually just the vanguard. Many more members of the Li family are lining up to arrive, including their patriarch.
"Second Ancestor, we are all top-tier forces, so why is our Li family the only one lagging behind?" Li Yan asked, changing the subject.
If everyone remains silent about Qin Fei's matter, it will definitely not end well, so he might as well end the topic as soon as possible.
He couldn't call Qin Fei back, nor could he make the Grand Ancestor bow down and apologize to Qin Fei.
Therefore, the best course of action now is to maintain the status quo.
"Because we got the lion's share in the resource distribution, that's why we were at the very back," the second patriarch of the Li family replied with considerable pride.
It's important to know that before these forces entered the teleportation array, they underwent a power reshuffle and resource redistribution.
The fact that the Li family was able to secure the lion's share of the resources at the end demonstrates their extraordinary power.
Without corresponding strength, they could not have obtained the most resources. It was precisely because they received the most benefits that the finishing work was a little slower, and they were at the very end.
Of course, it would be inaccurate to use this to judge the strength of these forces, because no one knows whether they have any hidden methods or resources in the process of dividing up resources.
It can only be said that the Li family is really strong, at least stronger than the Divine Martial Sect.
"The master is here!"
Just as everyone was talking, a voice suddenly came, and then the teleportation array in front of them suddenly lit up with a bright light, as if a star had exploded in front of them.
As a powerful aura swept in, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe, whose aura had reached the peak of the late stage of the Dao Saint Realm, stepped out of the teleportation array.
He is the current head of the Li family!
Li Qin!
Li Qin deserves much credit for enabling the Li family to take the lead in this resource allocation operation.
Because his cultivation level had reached the peak of the late stage of the Dao Saint Realm, he could be considered the strongest among these old monsters.
With him in charge, outsiders naturally have to show respect to the Li family.
"We greet the patriarch!"
Everyone, including the eldest patriarch of the Li family, bowed respectfully to Li Qin.
Just like the Liu family, the Li family's patriarch and others were also people who had stepped down from their positions as the head of the Li family. However, as time went by, their cultivation was gradually surpassed by Li Qin!
In terms of age, the eldest patriarch of the Li family is definitely the oldest in the family.
But when it comes to strength, Li Qin is undoubtedly the number one person in the Li family right now!
In the cultivation world, the most accomplished are respected, and since Li Qin is the strongest, he naturally earned everyone's respect.
"No need for formalities," Li Qin waved his hand, then turned his gaze to Li Yan and asked, "You don't look too comfortable. Did something happen?"
Actually, Li Yan's expression wasn't just a little unnatural; his displeasure was practically written all over his face.
There's no way he could laugh after something so upsetting.
"Reporting to the patriarch, something has indeed happened."
At this point, Li Yan subconsciously glanced at the Great Ancestor. He hoped that the Great Ancestor could take the initiative to clarify the matter at this time, but seeing that he had no intention of doing so, Li Yan could only explain to the family head himself.
After Li Yan finished speaking, Li Qin quickly figured out what had happened.
After a moment of silence, Li Qin finally spoke: "It's clear that this young man named Qin Fei is a promising talent, and his future achievements may even surpass ours."
"But now that it has already happened, let's just let nature take its course."
Clearly, he didn't intend to advocate for the Grand Ancestor to apologize.
No matter what, the Great Ancestor was one of the guardian deities of the Li family, a genuine Dao Saint.
Even if Qin Fei is incredibly powerful, his current cultivation level is only equivalent to that of an ant. Even if he can grow stronger in the future, it will take him a very long time.
So if you look at it from a different perspective, there's nothing to be anxious about.
The Li family wouldn't be affected by having Qin Fei more or less.
At worst, they've just given up on a promising player.
Li Qin made the final decision: "Let's just leave it at that, and don't mention it again!"
Upon hearing the patriarch's words, a hint of sadness appeared on Li Yan's face.
From his own perspective, he actually hoped that the patriarch could persuade Qin Fei to stay, but since the patriarch had already said such things in public, it meant that the Li family would definitely not try to keep Qin Fei anymore.
Thinking that all his efforts had turned to ashes, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
One step wrong, step by step wrong.
Perhaps the Li family really has no connection with Qin Fei.
"Brother, our Li family is a large clan with many experts. You shouldn't bring just any Tom, Dick, or Harry into the family."
Just then, a cold laugh rang out, and Li Yan's younger brother, Li Wei, stepped out from the crowd.
Like Li Yan, Li Wei is also a super genius in their Li family, and he has also comprehended a special realm.
Furthermore, Li Wei's current realm has already broken through to the late stage of the Earth Profound Realm, and he is only one step away from the Divine Radiance Realm.
It's fair to say that the two brothers are very close in skill, and Li Wei could catch up at any time.
Outsiders call the two brothers the twin stars of the Li family. However, because Li Yan is slightly older and his cultivation level is always higher than Li Wei's, he was chosen to be the face of the Li family.
But only Li Yan knew that his brother was always thinking about dragging him down so that he could take his place.
To put it bluntly, their relationship is not just that of brothers, but also one of fierce competition.
Hearing his younger brother's foul mouth, Li Yan couldn't help but say coldly, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute. This matter has absolutely nothing to do with you."
"How can it have nothing to do with me?"
Li Wei sneered in return, "Once you bring this person back, he will definitely use our Li family's resources. You know, resources are limited. If he uses them, we will have to use less of them. Do you think that has anything to do with me?"
Li Wei's words were reasonable and well-founded. On the surface, he seemed to be arguing his case, but in reality, his approach was more like nitpicking.
"You two should shut up. Why don't you use the time you spend arguing to focus on your cultivation?" Seeing that the two of them seemed to be escalating their argument, Li Qin couldn't help but shout in a low voice.
Since the patriarch was furious, Li Yan and Li Wei naturally dared not continue arguing. However, before leaving, Li Wei still made a throat-slitting gesture towards Li Yan.
It's clear that the conflict between the two is not minor.
"Li Yan, how is the situation at the base?" Li Qin asked calmly.
"The site arrangements are almost complete. Construction is underway, and we should be able to move in soon," Li Yan replied.
“You did a good job on this matter; you’ve done a meritorious service. You’ve been here for so long; have you gained anything?” Li Qin asked directly.
"I wonder which aspect you mean, Patriarch?" Li Yan asked, puzzled.
“Whether it’s cultivation level or knowledge, anything you can talk about is acceptable,” Li Qin replied.
Upon hearing this, Li Yan's first thought was that getting to know Qin Fei was his biggest gain from this trip. However, considering what the family head had just said, he swallowed those words back.
He knew this was not the right time to say such a thing, because the patriarch had made it clear that he would not try to win over Qin Fei. If he still said that getting to know Qin Fei was a gain, it would only invite ridicule from everyone.
So he opened his mouth, but in the end he only said one sentence: "My greatest achievement is that my realm has broken through to the early stage of the Divine Radiance Realm."
At this point, Li Yan's face showed not a trace of pride, but rather endless shame.
Compared to other super geniuses, his current progress can only be described as lagging behind.
Since he can't keep up with other people's progress, he should naturally feel ashamed.
"Being able to break through to the early stage of the Divine Radiance Realm means that you haven't slacked off in your cultivation during this time. Keep up the good work, and you'll soon be able to stand on your own."
"Yes."
After bowing slightly, Li Yan didn't know what to say next, so he just stood there, motionless.
"Don't just sit around, go do what you're supposed to do."
……
The Li family members are rapidly assembling, while Qin Fei, who was 'driven away,' has already returned to the gates of the Divine Martial Sect.
"Young Master Qin, why do you look so pale?"
When the Shenwu Sect disciple guarding the main gate saw Qin Fei's slightly unpleasant expression, he immediately inquired about it with concern.
"This has nothing to do with you, so don't worry about it."
Qin Fei certainly couldn't explain what was going on to an ordinary disciple of the Divine Martial Sect, but since even an ordinary person like him could see that his expression was unpleasant, he probably really needed to adjust his emotions.
At the very least, Qin Fei didn't want more people to see the 'story' on his face.
"call……."
Taking a deep breath, Qin Fei quickly adjusted his emotions, even straightening his clothes before stepping into the gate of the Divine Martial Sect.
For Qin Fei at this stage, returning to the Divine Martial Sect is like returning to his own home; not a single disciple of the Divine Martial Sect would stand up to block his way.
He arrived at Liang Xia's location without any hindrance.
"Sect Leader Liang, Qin Fei requests an audience." Qin Fei shouted directly from outside the door.
"Come in directly," Liang Xia's voice came from inside the hall.
Upon entering the main hall, Qin Fei found it empty except for Liang Xia, who was rapidly processing some documents on the table. A quick glance revealed that the documents were mostly about the Liu family's battle.
