Chapter 1116: Chapter 1110: If I Say I’ll Spare Your Life, I’ll Spare Your Life

"Yes, Grandfather, these people are outer sect disciples from the sect I joined. I had the fortune to join a mysterious sect ten years ago and became a direct disciple of the Sect Leader. Now, I have made some minor accomplishments in my cultivation," Li Changlin knew this was the time to put on a show, so he gave a somewhat embellished explanation.

Li Guorui nodded noncommittally and did not pay much attention to the mysterious sect mentioned by Li Changlin.

In Xuanyuan Country, even the most formidable sect surely couldn’t compare to the Eight Great Families.

Moreover, Li Guorui didn’t believe that Li Changlin could achieve a very high realm. After all, he only started practicing martial arts ten years ago; no matter how talented Li Changlin was, it was ultimately impossible for him to break through to the Transformation Realm!

Having understood these matters, Li Guorui then asked about how to deal with Li Changfeng. Regarding the Family Elders and Deacons of the Enforcement Team, he did not mention them again, nor did he know what the old man was truly thinking.

"At first, I indeed wished nothing more than to kill Li Changfeng," Li Changlin did not avoid the subject nor did he mind the expressions of Li Changfeng and Li Chengyang. He looked utterly calm as he lightly said, "As long as Li Changfeng apologizes to my mother and sister, and swears never to trouble them again, I can naturally spare his life."

"Changfeng, what do you say?" Li Guorui did not nod or object, but merely looked up at Li Changfeng and asked indifferently.

"Grandfather, I did nothing wrong!" At this moment, Li Changfeng was stubbornly defending himself, outright denying any wrongdoing, and even accused Li Changlin of killing his companions, requesting Li Guorui to punish Li Changlin.

"Li Changfeng, these people were killed by my orders, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the young master. If you dare not apologize today, I, Chen Mingjiang, will take your life even if it means I won’t leave the Li Family alive!" Chen Mingjiang would naturally not allow his young master to be dragged down by Li Changfeng’s delusions at this time.

A fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand, ready to strike Li Changfeng on the head.

"Grandfather, save me!" Seeing this, Li Changfeng’s face turned pale with fear. He knew this was a ruthless man who would truly kill him, completely different from Li Changlin.

Li Changlin might be restrained due to his status or familial reasons; he was not willing to directly kill him, but would be pleased to see Chen Mingjiang make a move.

And as for this Chen Mingjiang, also a disciple from some mysterious outer sect, even if he killed him, the Li family might compromise and let him go in the end.

So at this moment, Li Changfeng was truly scared.

He wasn’t scared of Li Changlin, but of Chen Mingjiang, this ruthless man.

"Valiant sir, please hold your hand." Seeing Chen Mingjiang’s action, Li Guorui was also frightened and hastily raised his hand to shout.

Chen Mingjiang’s hand paused in place, looking sarcastically at Li Guorui, "Family Head Li, since you’re unwilling to ensure justice for my young master, then I have no choice but to take action myself and eliminate Li Changfeng. If need be, my life for his—this will spare Family Head Li the trouble."

Chen Mingjiang was no fool; if he was a fool, how could he have reached the position of leading a group?

With Shisan Jian loyally serving him, Chen Mingjiang’s means were not easily contended with.

"Changfeng, if you’ve made a mistake, you should admit it. Just apologize!" In truth, according to Li Guorui’s real thoughts, he was exactly the same as Li Changfeng: he did not want Li Changfeng to lower his dignity for two outsiders.

Apologizing was the lesser consequence, but from then on, Li Changfeng would effectively lose face among his peers, and his authority would undoubtedly be greatly impacted.

From then on, it was equivalent to Li Changfeng losing the capital to compete with Li Changrui and Li Changping.

"I, I..." Li Changfeng’s lips trembled, he was not a fool, he had thought of this long ago, which is why he had been stubbornly refusing to apologize.

If he apologized, it would mean that everything he did today would become a reality, and he would definitely be despised by everyone in the future.

However, the situation was stronger than people if he did not bow his head and choose to apologize, the only outcome might be immediate death.

Between life and death, what choice could Li Changfeng make?

Helplessly, he finally turned around and said sorry to Jiang Yiyun and Qiu Yingying in a low voice.

"Li Changfeng, haven’t you eaten?" Li Changlin frowned and sternly reprimanded: "If you apologize, do it sincerely, Yingjie, show him how. Damn it, someone like you is also worthy to become the Li Family’s Family Head Successor, are all the high-level members of the Li Family blind!"

Li Changlin was really pointing to the monk and cursing his bald head, Li Guorui’s face immediately changed slightly upon hearing this. As for Li Chengyang standing behind him, he was absolutely furious.

If it were not for his identity, he would have rushed forward immediately and slapped Li Changlin fiercely!

"Master Changfeng, you’d better listen carefully!" Huang Yingjie, feeling like he had made another mistake, immediately raised his voice and said: "Aunt Jiang, Miss Qiu, I was wrong about what happened just now, I am worse than pigs and dogs, I am not human, I am wrong, please forgive my fault, I..."

"Enough!" Huang Yingjie’s words were too malicious, Li Chengyang really couldn’t listen any longer, and immediately shouted loudly: "Changfeng, a man should be flexible, it’s just an apology, make it crisp!"

If Huang Yingjie were to finish speaking, then his, Li Chengyang’s, face would really be lost completely.

Hearing his father’s reprimand, Li Changfeng felt even more aggrieved in his heart, but he knew that there was no possibility of turning the situation around, so he had to forcefully hold back the resentment in his heart and seriously spoke a few words of apology.

Jiang Yiyun and Qiu Yingying looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

But Li Changlin just laughed, casually raised his hand and waved, indicating Zhou Jian to let go.

He walked up to Li Changfeng, and said in a low voice: "Cousin Changfeng, since you’ve apologized, let bygones be bygones, don’t overthink. It’s just a mistake, as long as you correct it, it’s fine. Hey, rest assured, I said I’d spare your life, and I will. A man’s word is his bond, from now on, just behave well, I definitely won’t hurt you again."

While speaking, Li Changlin even gently patted Li Changfeng’s shoulder, as if he really had put everything in the past.

"It seems, this Master Changlin is nothing special after all!"

"To return to the family, I didn’t expect he was even able to hold back against his foster mother and foster sister’s hatred, he is indeed quite a character."

"Master Changfeng was too impulsive this time. If he had understood more about Master Changlin, he definitely wouldn’t have acted."

"Yes, I didn’t expect that Master Changlin has also cultivated Ancient Martial Arts, and it seems his power is not weak!"
