Chapter 44 Judgement
Chapter 44 Judgement
A horror filled atmosphere spread through the whole Li Clan,
The whole Li Clan became chaotic; figures flew outside the courtyards and appeared in the void including General Li,
They started looking around at dark Li Clan buildings. Even the living and dead weren't spared; everything was covered in an unknown darkness.
"My Son/Daughter," A loud noise spread from a courtyard far away.
"It can't be real." Exclamation spread through the whole Li Clan. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"What is this?" General Li frowned looking at miserable roars coming from Li Clan courtyards, then his face changed. He glanced at his main courtyard, looking at the dark color shrouding it.
"No, no, no, Li Han, my Han." He shouted painfully and instantly flew toward the courtyard.
It appeared inside a room, looking at the pitch-black walls, the bed, and a black male body turning into ashes.
His heart sank, and he spread his consciousness, seeing everything disappear, including his wives, children, and concubines. Not only the main courtyard, but all those other courtyards belonging to other Li Clans have the same situation.
"Ahhh, how dare you?" General Li shouted angrily with red eyes, feeling extreme pain in his heart.
Heavenly Star Judgment!!!
He raised his hand. A lot of golden halberds condensed around him and blasted everything around; the whole courtyard burst into pieces, scattered around.
"Puft!!! Who are you? Show yourself." General Li shouted couldn't stop his blood pressure and spurted blood angrily.
Swoosh!!!
Instantly, a few figures appeared floating above the Li family; they belong to other top families, each exuding a horror aura of the Holy Lord's. Looking at the situation below, everyone took a cold breath.
"What happened here, General Li?" One of them asked, He is a middle-aged man wearing armour similar to General Li, the head of the Jun family, General Jun of East.
"I don't know; when I opened my eyes, I saw everything on the brink of destruction. Our Li Clan is under attack." General Li said angrily, all of their brows furrowed, and everyone spread their consciousness throughout the whole Li Clan.
Those living and anything dead, even these courtyards and materials, are disappearing into dust, except those Holy Members of the Li Clan; all other members died hopelessly.
The next moment, their faces changed, feeling the darkness shrouding the whole Li Clan, everything disappearing and turning into dark ashes.
Those living and anything dead, even these courtyards and materials, are disappearing into dust, except those Holy Members of the Li Clan; all other members died hopelessly.
"Yan Lao, can you identify what these tiny wonders are?" One of the clan heads asked, frowning, looking at Yan family head standing beside him, a young man with red goatee and hair's and a red couldron mark on his forehead. He is the head of the Yan clan, Yan Jin.
Head Yan Jin furrowed his brow, raised his hand, and spread his consciousness. Instantly, dark particles gathered from the surrounding area, and a dark liquid ball condensed in his hand. "This is some kind of unknown metallic thing's; it looks like those metallic races." He spoke in surprise, and then a shock spread on his face. Looking at the dark ball in his hand, it turned into ashes.
"General Li, these things are outside our comprehension; you have offended someone you shouldn't and that ended up in such retaliation and became the reason for your clan's destruction. These are small objects; they are devouring everything, including living and dead, like locusts. Also, after devouring them, they are disappearing, as if these things were sent for a specific purpose. I haven't seen anything like it before." Yan family head spoke in amazement after observing for a while.
General Li and others glanced at the ashes scattering around his finger's. All nanobots self-destructed after completing their task,
They were also shocked to extreme and fell into daze.
While they were thoughtful and General Li was cursing in fear and anger, instantly everyone's pupils shrank, including General Li.
General Li's eyes widened, and cracks spread through his face, eyes, and whole body.
Shrub!!!
Huge spikes protruded out of his body, shredding it through, and those bloody spikes reached the sky.
All Clan heads faces changed, looking at the destroyed body of General Li, then they turned and glanced at other Li Clan members' bodies floating around.
"Ahhhhh, save me; please save me." With horror cries spreading around, those Li family members who flew away before all of them were shredded by similar spikes fell to the ground one by one.
A chill spread through those clan heads hearts: "Hurry up, leave the Li Clan premises, inform your Majesty, secure the capital city." One of them exclaimed in horror; they realized the gravity of the situation—even a semi-immortal is not safe in front of these things.
"Ahhhhh, damn, bastard my Li Clan; no matter where you are or who you are, I will find you and kill you." General Li's soul flew out of his destroyed body; his body then slowly disappeared completely.
"General Li, you are under arrest for putting the Shang Dynasty in such danger." Jun family head spoke expressionlessly, looking at General Li coldly. A huge blue chain appeared and pierced General Li's soul, binding it. Other family heads also shot and imprisoned his soul.
"You sons of bitches, I know what you are thinking—you are paying attention to my Li Clan property." General Li shouted with red eyes resentfully, and a dark aura spread through his soul.
"General Li became a demon and involved in the smuggling of dangerous, uncontrollable things, which can endanger the whole Shang Dynasty." General Jun spoke coldly, looking at the dark ashes on the ground. A flicker flashed through his eyes. 'These things can even destroy the Whole World; we have to find their main source.' He thoughtfully glanced at General Li, then added, "General Li, cooperate and tell us, where did you get those things?"
While a few clan heads were gloating in their hearts, looking at General Li, 'It seems the count of top families is reduced by one.'
They started planning about the benefits, and then they realized something, a chill rushed through their spines. They couldn't imagine a Holy clan disappearing just like that.
They glanced at the disappearing dark spikes, and once again a horror and fear flashed through their eyes. 'What is this? What kind of things are these? Can we really control them?'
Instantly, two more figures appeared in armor, looking at General Jun and Li, then glanced at the barren Li Clan area.
"General Huang, General Han, hurry up and intercede for me; these guys's are framing me. I don't know anything about these things." General Li spoke angrily.
"General Li, your majesty summoned us to the court; explain anything you want to explain there." General Han replied calmly,
Soon they apprehended the other Li Clan souls, and appeared in the Royal Court, along with other prominent figures of the eight clan's.
Ruler Shang Yan glanced at the General Li soul in the middle of the hall; his expression became strange. 'Wasn't he fine yesterday?' then asked majestically, "General Li, tell us about the destruction of the Li Clan. As a general, you know better that such an enemy can pose a huge threat to our Shang Dynasty. I want you to cooperate with other generals and find the culprit behind this incident."
"Your Majesty, I don't know how all this happened." General Li spoke resentfully. If he had a physique now, he would be crying with red eyes and bloody tears.
"Your Majesty, give us permission to search Li Clan memory and find the cause." General Jun then respectfully requested.
A chill rushed through General Li's soul, looking at General Jun angrily. 'Damn Bastard, once I recondense my physique, I will teach him a lesson."
Ruler Shang Yan shook his head, then spoke solemnly: "Li Clan served the Shang Dynasty for thousands of years; soul search is not permissible on Li Clan."
"Thank you, your majesty; Li Kun is grateful and will serve the kingdom for life." General Li spoke hurriedly, Just as he was relieved and happy.
Ruler Shang Yan glanced at Li Kun's soul; a cold luster flickered through his eyes. "General Li is the reason for Li Clan destruction and endangering the Dynasty; soul search is permissible on him only."
"Your Majesty, forgive." General Li's soul turned pale in fright almost dissipated.
After ordering, Ruler Shang Yan ignored his pleas, glanced at General Jun, and said, "I give you the authority to interrogate. I want the exact report on those things and to find out if our Shang Dynasty can get them somehow."
General Jun's mouth curled a little, then bowed with a smile, and he replied, "Yes, your Majesty."
General Li suddenly realized the reason why he was sacrificed because of those things: indeed, a weapon that can destroy a top clan is more expensive than a handicapped general. A regret swelled through his heart, thinking who he had offended.
Ruler Shang Yan then gave eviction orders after announcing his judgment.
General Li's soul was dragged amidst his miserable roars and expressionless faces of everyone around him.
…
While inside the Xuan Immortal Sect,
Leaf Peak,
Lin Lee glanced at the six more jade's in his hand and then looked at Chu Lan, standing in front of him.
"Apprentice, these are the remaining Immortal Art's inside the sect pavilion," Chu Lan said solemnly, then her expression became anxious and worried.
"Little Lee, are you sure you want to learn all these techniques? It will affect your future; more souls means more struggle." She said hesitatingly, wanting him to change his decision.
