Immortal Father
Chapter 535 - 535 188 Retreat of the Four Monsters_2

535: Chapter 188: Retreat of the Four Monsters_2 535: Chapter 188: Retreat of the Four Monsters_2 Indeed, it was a grave calamity.

Wounded and with his right hand gripping a sword, Cailin the Great pressed the tip against Li Ping’an’s throat.

With just a slight push, Li Ping’an’s blood would have spattered on the spot.

A faint green light flickered around Li Ping’an, firmly blocking Cailin the Great’s longsword.

He frowned as he looked at the Snake Demon, remaining silent.

“Cailin!”

Mo Linyuan stomped his foot in anger beside them and cursed, “Aren’t you even listening to me now!”

Cailin the Great’s eyes were filled with a mix of sadness and indignation, “Senior, you told me to kill him!”

“Why would you kill him!”

“He is the illegitimate son of the Yellow Emperor!”

“No, his father is Li Dazhi, a Great Fate Holder of the Human Race!

He is the one you were trying to capture before!”

“I don’t believe it!”

Cailin the Great exclaimed angrily:

“If he isn’t the Yellow Emperor’s illegitimate son, why does he have the Xuanyuan Sword Command and the Xuanyuan Sword Sheath on him!”

Xuanyuan Sword Command?

In the corner of the hall, the silver-maned lion that had been lying down healing suddenly sat up, transformed into a human form amidst a flash of silver light, shook off the bovine creature trying to help him, and a longsword appeared in his hand, his eyes bursting with rage.

“It was you!

You killed Ah Zheng!”

Li Ping’an closed his eyes and still did not speak.

Yin Kui the Great staggered over with his sword, ready to strike.

Mo Linyuan, with a look of helplessness on his face, raised his hand to block him: “What are you doing!

He is a distinguished guest I invited!”

“He killed Ah Zheng!”

Yin Kui the Great’s handsome face twisted, and the gaping wound in his chest looked horrific.

“Senior, have you ever lost a loved one!

Do you understand how much pain I’m in right now!”

Mo Linyuan sighed: “You’re in pain…

You’re wounded, Yin Kui!

Your heart was almost shattered!”

“I must avenge Ah Zheng!”

“Avenge?”

Li Ping’an opened his eyes and looked at Yin Kui the Great, knowing deep down that he should prioritize his own safety, but he still couldn’t suppress the righteousness within him.

After all, he was currently at the mercy of Mo Linyuan, and struggling with his current strength would be futile.

And since Mo Linyuan was protecting him, these great demons wouldn’t be able to kill him for now.

At this time, he needed to be justified, righteous, and grasp the pulse of this great Daluo Golden Immortal Mo Linyuan, to ensure his continued protection.

Li Ping’an said coldly, “Did I, without any reason, kill that Heavenly Immortal Realm lion?

Did I go to your Lion Clan’s territory and kill this Ah Zheng?”

Yin Kui the Great glared with fury: “You!”

“You bunch of wicked demons!

“Invade the lands of the Human Race, abduct the people of the Li family, can my father and I simply watch as Aunt Yue suffers humiliation!”

Li Ping’an stood up, casually pushed away the Longsword of Cailin the Great, and declared in a firm voice,

“You harbor ulterior motives and devious plans.

What wrong have I done in striking back and slaying that lion?”

“In ancient times, the lion clan was often praised by the Hundred Clans for justice, for upholding righteousness.

Is this how you uphold justice?”

“Ridiculous!”

“Did that lion really die by my hand, or by your treacherous schemes?

Right and wrong, cause and effect, all have been turned upside down.

No wonder the lion clan of today is mostly composed of bloodthirsty and shameless individuals!”

“You bastard!”

Yin Kui the Great’s nostrils quivered uncontrollably, and he turned to slash with his sword, but the edge was similarly enveloped in a green light.

Li Ping’an took a half step forward, “It was you who did wrong first.

In fighting back, had you and A’Zheng devoted yourselves to good deeds, how could you have encountered such disaster?”

Yin Kui the Great gave a mournful smile, “A’Zheng was killed by me…

If I hadn’t taken this matter, if I hadn’t brought him with me…”

From behind came a light laugh.

It was that still coquettishly beautiful Hu Niang who laughed and said,

“The realization of an almost-Immortal isn’t just in appearance, but also in the power of speech.”

“Great King, they of the Human Race call us the Demon Race, describe us as cruel and merciless beings.

Why should you care about what he says?

He is merely using the false benevolence and righteousness of the humans to deceive you.”

“The Hundred Clans battling the Human Race must use all means at their disposal.

The two are natural enemies; why bother talking about justice?”

“Such a vixen!”

Li Ping’an glanced at Mo Linyuan and said calmly,

“You only hid behind your comrades during the great battle, and now you start to stir up trouble here.”

“What?

Do you want Yin Kui the Great to kill me?”

“If you have a grudge against me, come and kill me yourself.

Why resort to such manipulation and backbiting?

This place is the dwelling of Elder Mo who is kind-hearted, full of love, and enacts justice on behalf of the heavens.

How can he allow you to run wild here!”

“That’s right!”

Mo Linyuan glared at Hu Niang and scolded,

“You little fox!

Do you think I was unaware of earlier events?

“You spread rumors multiple times, inciting Cailin to capture Brother Li Ping’an, repeatedly putting Cailin in danger.

I saw all of it!”

Hu Niang hastily said with a smile, “Elder, you are our Great Da Luo of the Hundred Clans.”

“You are mistaken,” Li Ping’an said calmly, “Elder Mo is not the Great Da Luo of the Hundred Clans, nor is he the Human Race’s Great Da Luo.

He is the Great Da Luo for all living beings, a crucial pivot for restraining the Heavenly Dao!”

Mo Linyuan’s expression subtly changed, and he turned to look at Li Ping’an, his eyes carrying a touch of surprise.

Hu Niang’s brow furrowed slightly, and she retreated behind the imposing figure, laughing, “I never imagined Elder Mo to be so, so magnificent.

I greatly misunderstood.

Elder, please do not blame me.”

Li Ping’an looked at that towering figure, the Great King Kui Shan, Niu Benben the Bull Demon.

Niu Benben shuddered and hurriedly said, “Misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, I truly didn’t know it was you, Elder, who captured Li Ping’an.

I was too anxious at the time and spoke without thinking, spoke without thinking.”

“Hmph!”

Mo Linyuan swept his sleeve, and a black wind crossed, Hu Niang’s figure instantly disappearing from sight.

He said indifferently, “Little fox, I do not wish to kill, otherwise, you might not escape so easily today!

Go and cultivate!

If I see you stoking discord again, I fear I will have to begin a slaughter!”
