The Drunken Madman grumbled, "The only iing ones in your Li family are the Saintess and that traitorous brat, Tianming. The rest of you... from old to young, are so utterly b. Why do you have to do things so quickly and decisively? You won't eve me have some fun with these two bastards."

  "The Li family!"

  Upon seeing Li Dalong, Xiao Huang'er went mad again. She had received the intelligence report about the day the Li family stormed the Xiao residence. In that footage, it was Li Dalong who ahe Li family members and issued the order to kill!

  "Qiuye, kill this scum! Go and kill him! Avenge my Xiao family!" Xiao Huang'er's Phoenix Dharma Body materialized. Despite being pregnant, she was still pulling and urging Qiuye to charge forward.

  But...

  Qiuye was sweating profusely. His worst fear had e true!

  Li Dalong merely g the two Dao panions with indifferehen, just like his usual simple and ho self, he scratched his head, appearing slightly embarrassed, and replied to the Drunken Madman, "Senior, enemies meeting is always intense. If I mao snate good wiime, it will be even more iing."

  "Well said!" The Drunken Madman's eyes lit up.

  "Then, Senior, please help me hold back this Elder Qiuye."

  "You got it."

  The Drunken Madman took another mouthful of wine, but this time, instead of swallowing it, he spat it towards Elder Qiuye on the distant spirit shuttle. After spitting, he grumbled, "Ah, what a waste of my good wine."

  Despite his pint, the Drunken Madman, being a peak Golden Core cultivator, spat out the wine, which transformed into nine dragons, r as they charged towards Elder Qiuye!

  The two were already fighting elsewhere.

  The Drunken Madman even had the leisure to gnce back at Xiao Huang'er, who had already unched an attack with her Phoenix Dharma Body, and at Li Dalong, who was calmly uning the white cloth from his coffin. "Patriarch Li," he called out, " you hahis? That's a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, you know?"

  Li Wei was also watg all of this unfold. Over the years, despite being lovey-dovey with Xu Cuihua, Li Dalong hadn't ed his cultivation. However, advang to the Golden Core stage wasn't that easy.

  But...

  "No, I 't defeat her."

  Li Dalong replied holy. As he watched the shadow of the phoenix approag, he slowly opehe coffin, his gaze and voice both cold. "But I have the prote of my aors, and..."

  Xiao Huang'er, who was attag Li Dalong, suddenly found her spiritual power stagnating.

  A formation rose from beh Li Dalong's feet, and boundless deathly energy filled the air. One by one, ghostly figures crawled out from the formation!

  It was the iance of the Heaven-Pierg Coffin: the Soul-Summoning Camity Formation!

  He could see it.

  He saw the terror in Xiao Huang'er's eyes, and her gaze frozen in that instant.

  Those ghosts of the dead...

  "I am fighting alongside the deceased souls of the Xiao family!"

  Li Dalong's voice was deep and resonant, with a hint of ess, like the King of Hell emerging from the underworld. His eyes were filled with satisfa as a spirit stone floated in the air, rec this moment. "Xiao Huang'er," he decred, "you killed our Li family's loved ones. And now, our Li family has extermien geions of yours."

  "You might not know what happehat day, but I tell you, the Xiao family didn't even knoe stormed their home, ere so ruthless. Do you know the aor of the Xiao family? ht, I looked into it ter. It was your sed son. Do you know how he questioned me as he watched the Xiao family beiroyed?"

  "He said, 'The Xiao family and our family have no feud. Why are we causing such bloodshed?'"

  Back when they dealt with the Su family, Li Dalong couldn't eveo kill children.

  Now...

  His voice was like that of the most ruthless King of Hell in the underworld. Watg Xiao Huang'er's growing terror and panic, he felt an indescribable satisfa. "I couldn't answer him then," he said, "perhaps you give them an expnation. Oh, and our Li family is still quite kind. At least we didn't torture them along the way, didn't brutalize them. They died quickly."

  As soon as he finished speaking, more and more souls of the Xiao family emerged, surging from the formation towards Xiao Huang'er, baring their fangs and brandishing their cws. They were vengeful spirits demanding their lives.

  "Why? Why did you kill us?!"

  "Help me! You are the aor, our aor in the Azure Cloud Pavilion! Tell me, why did they kill me? Bring me back to life, aor!"

  "How did I die? It's so dark here, I'm so scared."

  "..."

  These demonic voices of the dead, oer another, pierced Xiao Huang'er's ears.

  During the sughter at the Xiao residence, Li Dalong had already used the Heaven-Pierg Coffin teique to capture the souls of the Xiao family members. On that day at the 'Tower,' he only released the souls of others. These... were saved for today!

  Xiao Huarembled all over, desperately c her ears. As she watched the souls of the Xiao family members approag her, with her sed son walking at the forefront, reag out to her, she finally lost her mind.

  "No! It wasn't my fault! Don't e near me!"

  Beh the crazed Xiao Huang'er, a noticeable trail of blood flowed from beside her red shoes, dripping onto the ground.
