Shixiu, Jian Chen, Mo Xuan, and Lin Ce were respectfully welcomed into the Li Family's living room by the members of the Li Family.
At that moment, Li Yuan, the son of Li Wuji, stood trembling to the side, carefully attending to their needs.
Logically speaking, Li Yuan was the son of the head of the Li Family, Li Wuji. He was considered half a master of the Li Family.
However, in front of these individuals, Li Yuan appeared somewhat anxious.
He stood there with utmost respect, even afraid to sit down.
The pressure these people exerted on him was simply overwhelming!
Especially Jian Chen, who sat there calmly.
Li Yuan recognized him. Not long ago, he had been beaten up by that brat from the Ye Family.
But that did not mean this person lacked strength; in fact, he was incredibly strong.
According to his father's speculation, anyone who could command Mo Xuan and Lin Ce—both at the Tribulation Stage—to follow him without question must be a master of the Great Accomplishment Period.
As Li Yuan's thoughts wandered, Mo Xuan's slightly indifferent voice broke through his reverie.
"Li Yuan, these two are elders of my Heavenly Heart Sect. Where is your father? Hurry and bring him to meet us!"
"Elders of the Heavenly Heart Sect...!!!"
Li Yuan instinctively turned his gaze towards another person, aside from Jian Chen.
This glance was not inconsequential; he felt an invisible wave of terror emanating from that individual, striking hard at his heart.
"Thud, thud, thud!!!"
Li Yuan found himself uncontrollably staggering backward, taking five or six steps before crashing against the wall, finally managing to stop himself.
Looking at Stone Cold, Li Yuan's face was filled with fear as he hurriedly knelt down, saying, "S-Senior... I did not mean to offend you. Please forgive me."
Stone Cold snorted coldly, his tone slightly heavy as he said, "Quickly bring your father here. I have questions for him."
"Yes, yes..." Li Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I will go call him myself right away."
"Apologies for keeping you waiting, Stone Cold and Jian Chen!"
Before Li Yuan could leave the living room, Li Wuji's voice came from outside.
He then quickly walked in.
Li Wuji approached and first glanced at his son. Seeing him drenched in sweat and pale-faced, he signaled for him to step outside.
Then he directly cupped his fists towards the two seated at the top, Stone Cold and Jian Chen, saying, "Li Wuji pays respects to the two elders."
Afterward, Li Wuji subtly glanced at Mo Xuan and Lin Ce, who were seated nearby.
"You are the head of the Li Family?"
Stone Cold asked lightly as he scrutinized Li Wuji.
"Yes," Li Wuji replied respectfully. "If the Elder has any tasks for our Li Family, please feel free to command us."
"That's not necessary," Stone Cold waved his hand and said, "Just tell me about that Ye Fan from the Ye Family!"
At the early stages of Great Achievement, Jian Chen was not even a match for him.
Thus, Stone Cold wanted to learn more about this person.
Upon hearing this, Li Wuji understood in his heart; it seemed his suspicions were correct.
The strong from the Heavenly Heart Sect had indeed come again to trouble the Ye Family.
However, Li Wuji did not show any signs of concern. Instead, he nodded respectfully and said, "As for that child Ye Fan..."
"Child?"
Li Wuji had just begun to speak when he was interrupted by Stone Cold.
"You mean he is really just a child?"
On the way here, Jian Chen and the others had also mentioned Ye Fan and the Ye Family's situation to Stone Cold.
However, Jian Chen insisted that Ye Fan was an ancient monster who had lived for hundreds of years, deliberately disguising himself as a child to deceive others.
Mo Xuan and Lin Ce had previously come to the Li Family to investigate Ye Fan's situation.
They knew that Ye Fan was indeed just a child.
But since Jian Chen insisted that Ye Fan was an ancient monster, Mo Xuan and Lin Ce naturally did not dare to say much.
"Yes! If we calculate correctly, that child should be eight years old this year!" Li Wuji looked at Stone Cold with some confusion, unsure if he had said something wrong.
Upon hearing this, a glint of sharpness flashed in Stone Cold's eyes as he shot a fierce glare at Jian Chen beside him.
Then he waved his hand at Li Wuji and said, "Continue."
"Understood."
Li Wuji continued, "The Ye Family is the foremost family in Heavenly River Mansion, their status unshakeable. This is because they have an Ancestor whose cultivation has reached the Great Accomplishment Period, making Heavenly River Mansion invincible."
"However, not long ago, it was rumored that Ancestor Ye fell in battle." At this point, Li Wuji couldn't help but glance again at Stone Cold and the others. According to the news that reached Heavenly River Mansion, it seemed that Ye Jiuchong had fallen on Overseas Immortal Island!
Could it be related to the Heavenly Heart Sect? Li Wuji couldn't help but speculate.
One of Stone Cold's hands rested on the table, lightly tapping it as he spoke with a solemn tone, "I already know all this. Now tell me about Ye Fan... that child."
"Alright." Hearing this, Li Wuji nodded respectfully and said, "The reason I mentioned the Ye Family is that after Ancestor Ye's fall, not long ago, another prominent family in our Heavenly River Mansion, the Mo Family, directly attacked the Ye Family to seize the title of the first family."
"But... the outcome was predictable." A hint of fear surfaced in Li Wuji's eyes as he continued, "Everyone thought the Ye Family was finished. After all, the head of the Mo Family, Moyang Yun, is a master at the late Tribulation stage. The strongest member of the Ye Family besides the fallen Ye Jiuchong is their current head, Ye Qiancheng, who only possesses late-stage Dividing Spirit cultivation."
"It could be said that the entire Ye Family was utterly defenseless."
At this point, Li Wuji paused slightly and took a deep breath before saying, "However, just then, it was rumored that Ye Qiancheng's son, Ye Fan, emerged out of nowhere and directly killed Moyang Yun before undergoing his own Tribulation."
"What? Are you saying he underwent his Tribulation after killing Moyang Yun at the late Tribulation stage?" Stone Cold's eyes sparkled with intensity as an overwhelming aura began to emanate from him.
Feeling the change in Stone Cold's aura, a flicker of fear crossed Li Wuji's face.
Nevertheless, he hurriedly replied, "That's right. Moreover, his way of undergoing Tribulation... is simply astonishing; it's unprecedented!"
A seven or eight-year-old brat, without any Tribulation, had killed a master at the late stage of Tribulation.
This meant that prior to this, he hadn't even reached the Tribulation Stage of cultivation.
Yet, without being at the Tribulation Stage, he was able to kill a master at the late stage of Tribulation.
Stone Cold couldn't help but reveal a chilling smile, coldly glancing at Li Wuji and saying, "Speak. I'm curious to hear how this unprecedented feat was accomplished."
Li Wuji cast a wary glance at Shixiu and Jian Chen, concerned that if he spoke too astonishingly, they might not believe him and instead direct their anger at him.
Mo Xuan and Lin Ce noticed Li Wuji's hesitation and snorted coldly, saying, "Li Family Master, the elder has asked you to speak. Just go ahead."
Li Wuji nodded and astonishingly declared, "He turned the Heavenly Tribulation into a ball and directly threw it at the Mo Family."
"Bang!"
Stone Cold slammed his palm down on the table with such force that it shattered into pieces. He shouted angrily, "Nonsense! Turning the Heavenly Tribulation into a ball—are you foolish or am I? Do you dare to spout such nonsense in front of me?"
Li Wuji was startled, beads of sweat instantly forming on his forehead. He quickly stammered, "Elder, I wouldn't dare to speak carelessly in front of you even if I had the courage of a bear or leopard!"
"But he really did turn the Heavenly Tribulation into a ball and threw it at the Mo Family, annihilating them completely and leaving no survivors!"
"Really?" Stone Cold's sharp gaze pierced through Li Wuji.
Li Wuji didn't dare to meet his eyes and quickly replied, "Every word is true."
"I doubt you would dare to deceive me." Stone Cold withdrew his gaze but furrowed his brow slightly.
An eight-year-old brat could kill a master at the late stage of Tribulation without having undergone Tribulation himself.
After Tribulation, even Jian Chen in the early stages of Great Achievement was no match for him.
In summary, this Brat is likely quite formidable.
Not only is their strength terrifying, but there is also an air of strangeness about them.
Seeing Stone Cold deep in thought, Li Wuji stood by, holding back even more astonishing words that he dared not speak.
Jian Chen tentatively asked, "Elder Shi, what should we do next? Should we just charge in? With your Peak of the Great Achievement Stage cultivation, you could easily crush that Brat."
"Indeed, in front of Elder Shi, a seven or eight-year-old Brat can't stir up much trouble," Mo Xuan flattered.
Lin Ce was not to be outdone and sharply added, "As long as Elder Shi gives the order, we will follow you into battle immediately."
"Charge in immediately?" Stone Cold looked up at Lin Ce upon hearing this, then shook his head with a smile and said, "Well then, Lin Ce, Mo Xuan."
Suddenly, Stone Cold declared, "I have a plan in mind. You two should go to the Ye Family first."
"What... us two?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Xuan and Lin Ce instantly stood up in disbelief, looking at Stone Cold with astonishment.
They swallowed hard and said, "Stone, Elder Shi! If even Elder Jianchen isn't a match for them, how can we possibly handle it?"
As they spoke, Mo Xuan and Lin Ce cast a fearful glance at Jian Chen.
Hearing his name mentioned, Jian Chen frowned and couldn't help but snort.
Stone Cold chuckled and reassured them, "Don't worry. I'm not sending you to kill him; I just need you to deliver a message."
"Deliver a message?" Confusion appeared on the faces of Mo Xuan and Lin Ce.
If that's the case, then it shouldn't be too much of a problem after all.
"That's right, go tell him that the Inner Sect Elder of the Heavenly Heart Sect, Shixiu at the Peak of the Great Achievement Stage, is waiting for him here. He should come to pay his respects immediately; otherwise, I will annihilate the entire Ye Family."
"Understood."
Mo Xuan and Lin Ce exchanged glances, feeling a slight sense of relief.
However, Li Wuji, who stood to the side, was even more anxious!
Letting Ye Fan, that brat, come to his Li Family?
Wasn't that just openly telling the other party that their Li Family was in cahoots with the Heavenly Heart Sect, leaking information?
No way, no way!
If that brat got angry and wiped out his Li Family...
That would be disastrous!
Li Wuji wore a distressed expression and hurriedly stepped forward, trembling as he said, "Elder, please! We can't let that brat come to my Li Family!"
