“These murderous demon cultivators, not one should be spared.
They all deserve to be hacked into pieces.
“To collude with demons and harm the Human Race, their conscience must have been devoured by demons!
“With the fall of Blood Fiend Hall, this matter finally comes to an end.
Although the main Hall Master hasn’t been caught, my guess is that he’s just an elder in the Ten Thousand Demonic Heavens.”
Li Ping’an asked in a low voice, “Will the Ten Thousand Demonic Heavens seek revenge?”
“For the time being, it appears they won’t.”
Tianli the Elder chuckled:
“The Ten Thousand Demonic Heavens now dare not show their faces—previously, we’ve done some things to temporarily suppress them.
“With the obliteration of Blood Fiend Hall, within the high ranks of the Eastern Alliance, it’s actually Heavenly Crane who suffered the most.
“Basically, apart from the top three Vice Alliance Hierarchs, under each Vice Alliance Hierarch’s behind, there are one or two major sects propping them up.
The Sea Watch Ancestor was an old subordinate of Heavenly Crane, running errands and wavering banners for him.
“Besides that, there’s not much else.”
Li Ping’an was about to ask more questions about the Ten Thousand Demonic Heavens, but Li Dazhi, who was beside him, smiled and lifted his cup.
Li Dazhi said, “It’s good that Blood Fiend Hall is extinguished.
Our Wanyun Sect will also be rid of this thorn in our side.
I toast to you, Elder!”
Tianli the Elder raised his cup, speaking indifferently:
“I have something to ask of you too.
Is it possible for your artifact refining method to mass-produce quality magical artifacts?
If so, the Eastern Alliance would like to order a batch of quality artifacts from you.”
“Let’s…
drink first.
I’ll discuss it with you slowly later.”
Li Dazhi laughed heartily and drank the Immortal Brew in his cup in one gulp.
“No need to wait.
I have come precisely for this matter.
Let’s discuss business first.
The Eastern Alliance will certainly not owe you any Spirit Stones!”
Tianli the Elder drank his cup and pressed his hand on Li Dazhi’s arm.
Li Dazhi’s entire body was resisting, but his immortal power was limited, and he really couldn’t resist, so he could only communicate privately with Tianli the Elder using Spiritual Sense.
Li Ping’an tucked into a few mouthfuls of food on the side, eating with a heavy heart.
He glanced at the hidden glow in the corner of the spiritual platform, saw the calamity facing his father, and quickly withdrew his Spiritual Sense after recording the scene.
The mountain of corpses under his father’s feet had shrunk considerably.
Upon closer inspection, there weren’t many bodies of the Human Race left within it.
This was the effect of annihilating Blood Fiend Hall;
It was also the main reason Li Ping’an didn’t continue to target the Sea Watch Sect.
But in the center of the scene, the blood cloud was still there, the large hole in his father’s chest was still there, and the colorful giant serpent on the edge of the image was still there; many major demons were also still present.
Cailin the Great had already attacked him once, and he would have to find a way to eliminate him later.
This blood cloud…
“Ping’an?” Tianli the Elder softly called, “What are you thinking about?”
Li Ping’an casually asked, “I’m wondering, who ended up with Houyi’s sunset god arrows when he shot down the suns.”
“Sunset god arrows?
How did you suddenly think of that?”
Tianli the Elder stroked his beard and mused:
“One of the sunset god arrows is within the Eastern Alliance—it’s the one that didn’t get shot.
“As for the other nine, they were gifted to the Demon Race.
It’s said that seven of the arrows were destroyed and re-refined by Emperor Jun’s ten sons, sealed in an Innate Spiritual Gourd, and turned into an extremely powerful Spiritual Treasure.
“The whereabouts of the remaining two arrows are unknown, likely in the hands of former servants of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
“You want the sunset god arrows?”
“Yes,” Li Ping’an said, “I’m used to using a Long Spear.
If the sunset god arrows could be refined into a long spear, its power would surely be extraordinary.”
A Long Spear?
Xu Sheng, who was eating and studying the Treasure Bead, looked up at Li Ping’an.
Xu Sheng the Elder blinked, glanced at his Spiritual Treasure trove, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Didn’t this present an opportunity to study the Cang Yue Bead more?
Tianli the Elder laughed, “The Eastern Alliance’s god arrow isn’t exactly unavailable to you.
It’s just sitting there like a decoration.”
Li Ping’an’s eyes immediately lit up, “Elder, are you saying I should accomplish some feat?”
“Ha,” Tianli the Elder drank another cup of wine, “Not about accomplishing a feat, but…
Ping’an, look at the current Eastern Alliance, this East Continent, don’t you think something is missing?”
“Missing something?”
Li Ping’an was puzzled.
Tianli the Elder sighed:
“What’s missing is a path, a path that allows the talented youths of the Human Race to rise.
“The positions in the Eastern Alliance have become fixed.
We have a great many Golden Immortals, all of which have made significant contributions in ancient times.
Even if there were any vacancies, we would have to promote them to higher ranks.
“His Majesty has also long been troubled by this problem.
“Golden Immortals, unless it’s a great catastrophe of heaven and earth, do not fall.
Whether it’s seniority or merit and ability, the newcomers can’t compete with the ancients.
If this goes on, wouldn’t the peak of the Human Race be in ancient times?
“Emperor Fuxi once said that the rise and fall defined by the Heavenly Dao boils down to four words—’excess is as good as deficiency; fullness leads to loss.’
“At the peak of the Ancient Heavenly Court, Emperor Jun led the Hundred Clans to oppress weaker beings, hence they declined from their peak; in ancient times, supreme beings like the dragons, phoenixes, qilins, and others quarreled after reaching their peak, which led to their decline.
“Now facing this issue is our Human Race.”
Li Ping’an had an epiphany: “Elder, what you mean is, the Eastern Alliance needs reform.”
Li Dazhi muttered softly beside him, “This is not something my Ping’an can do.”
“Why couldn’t he?”
Tianli the Elder frowned and scolded:
“Ping’an has a strong background, a sharp mind, and what’s more valuable, a sincere heart.
This time, destroying the Blood Fiend Hall has also earned him great merit.
Isn’t this the perfect time for him to flex his muscles?”
Li Dazhi nodded with a smile, winked at Li Ping’an, and mouthed two words.
Shang Yang?
Li Ping’an was speechless, pondering deep within.
Indeed, based on the history of his old home, the reformers in such a feudal society often met with no good end, and those who could retire whole were few and far between.
Shang Yang reformed Qin and led it to prosperity, yet he was purged by the old nobility and met a tragic fate.
