Now, an ordinary Primordial Pill has come, and it could probably exchange a couple of moves with his decaying body. With his perspective, he can clearly see...
Before him, his own ’good son,’ without exaggeration, has already comprehended the ’Celestial Human Domain.’ His Divine Soul is being suppressed by some profound means, and he knows it well.
Sixteen-year-old Celestial Human Realm...
Li Shen Yao’s heart trembled, and after a long sigh, he spoke:
"To be honest."
"You killed the Duchess and Li Qiankun, which is equivalent to killing your elder mother and elder brother, and now you want to imprison your father and seize power, overturning all the filial piety and ethics of this world."
"Once this spreads, no matter the great achievements you accomplish in the future, your enemies will surely ruin your reputation."
"I know you might not care about these things."
"But..."
He looked over his son, suddenly chuckled, lay back down, and closed his eyes:
"You still have a bright future ahead."
"Must you sink in the mire of Tongye State?"
"My boy, I’ve led troops and fought for half a lifetime; you must know, personal martial prowess... is insignificant in determining the world."
"You are not yet a True Master."
"Yet you want to raise a grand flag..."
"Do you really think, like your master, the Magic Dao Alliance Master, you can command sixteen strong sects, battle demons and Divine Blood, and remain undefeated?"
"You are merely a mountain cultivator."
"Wanting to inherit the title of ’Duke’ and control a territory..."
"It’s far too early."
"Though you slew your mother and brother, your temperament is much like mine when I was younger. Pure blood of the Li Family runs through your veins; although I rose through Divine Blood, but..."
"If the future world could have a place for the ’Li’ surname, I would be happy to see it."
"Go back and cultivate for a few more years, and speak of these things once you become a True Master."
"In the Life and Death Mountain and River Sect, and among many strong sects, you are an unparalleled legend as a Martial Artist Celestial Pride."
"But in Tongye State, you are practically unknown; wanting to be ’Duke Tongye’..."
"Can those soldiers, generals, Prefecture Venerable, and Guardians accept you?"
Jixia’s eyes remained steady:
"Of course, they can."
His expression was serious, as if discussing something as ordinary as water, making Li Shen Yao glance sideways, nearly laughing in anger.
Can? What can you do?
What achievements have you made? Why would the people acknowledge you? How can soldiers accept you? Why should the great families and aristocracy heed your command and not see you as an inexperienced junior? free𝑤ebnovel.com
Conquering the world is easy; governing it is hard!
"It seems... my four sons... are just mediocre as well."
Li Shen Yao gave a mocking smile and said no more.
Jixia’s arrival was likely to conspire with outsiders, taking advantage of the Tongye Duke’s Mansion’s weakness, to grab a share of the power.
Up next, without surprise, would likely be using the Emperor to command the dukes.
This son can’t resist, the eldest son’s head has already rolled, and he has no methods left.
But.
If this is the case...
Plunging into such turmoil without worldly experience...
This ’mountain person’ illegitimate son’s outcome wouldn’t fare well either.
Li Shen Yao thought thus, but at that moment, an unsettled Li Xuanzong, losing his garments, urgently staggered in, and upon arrival, angrily chastised:
"Li Treading Immortal!"
"You madman!"
"Even if you are the ’Great Demon Hunter Master,’ who crossed the Wei River four times, resisted demons, led the Demon Hunting Department and fought against the Jing River Dragon King as such a True Master, making advances and retreats, saving many soldiers and civilians, slightly stalling the demonic aggression, but..."
"You killed Li Qiankun, isn’t that enough?"
"Do you want to ignore human ethics, even kill your biological father, and seize the authority of the Tongye Duke’s Mansion?"
He charged in breathless.
Making Li Shen Yao, who was lying down, suddenly sit upright, his lightly mocking tiger eyes now filled with shock and uncertainty...
Looking at the panting Li Xuanzong, whose eyes were fixed intensely on Li Treading Immortal.
Li Shen Yao pointed at Jixia with his finger:
"You just..."
"Said who he is?"
Great Demon Hunter Master...
Is his son, Li Treading Immortal?
Though bedridden for a month.
Yet even without leaving home, as ’Duke Tongye,’ Li Shen Yao was still well-informed about external intelligence and military affairs.
For instance, the Great Demon Hunter Master, who could frustrate the Jing River Dragon King, was seen on the map maneuvering dangerously many times, hovering on the edge of life and death, surviving despair each time.
Li Shen Yao, from his bed, had praised many times and compared himself, always having to admit that if he were to lead troops...
In nine out of ten attempts, he would likely face ruin!
Li Xuanzong’s words could not be false.
Originally, he thought...
This illegitimate son relied on other malicious forces wishing to overturn the Tongye Duke’s Mansion to satisfy his ambition.
But now it seems...
It’s not depending on others!
Clearly, after the fall of the Life and Death Mountain and River Sect, he relied on himself, collecting so many mysterious cultivation techniques, gathering the scattered strong sect members, and swiftly building a mighty force!
The inability of the Tongye Duke’s Mansion to bear weight is an undisputed fact.
And at this time, if anyone in Tongye State could support this collapsing heaven, besides this emergent Demon Hunting Department, Li Shen Yao couldn’t think of anyone else.
Therefore, he meticulously instructed Li Xuanzong repeatedly to invite the Demon Hunter General managing the ’Tongye Mansion,’ in hopes of meeting the ’Great Demon Hunter Master,’ and by all means, integrating the Demon Hunting Department into the alliance!
