Chapter 178: Chapter 96: The First Alliance in the Chaotic Era!

Boom!!!

Several breaths after reacting, Xue Daoyong suddenly swept his sleeve, stirring a massive surge of Inner Qi. It transformed into a roaring tiger, circling around to separate the inside from the outside, ensuring that none of the movements here could be detected from beyond. The elder stood up, gazing at the young man who sat before him in peace.

Several months ago, when Li Guanyi had killed a fugitive.

The Breaking Cloud Sky-shattering Bow had been howling incessantly.

As the young man engaged in the act of killing, the White Tiger Seven Stars ascended to Central Heaven, and at that moment, Xue Daoyong began to suspect that this young man had a Fate Grid like that of his ancestors, bearing the mark of the White Tiger Sect. However, he never took the initiative to tell Guan Yi about this guess.

He still said Yuwen Lie might be of the White Tiger Sect.

Thus, when Li Guanyi claimed himself to be of the White Tiger Sect, waves of ripples surged in Xue Daoyong’s heart because this signified the fulfillment of what was written in the family scrolls. Great chaos abounded, and from the Three Sects of the World, the Stargazing School of the East Continent emerged.

Their disciples had already found the young man before them, as the White Tiger had found its fangs, honing their sharpness, and overlooking the tumultuous times.

Signifying that the true chaos was about to begin.

Xue Daoyong gazed at the young man before him, softly chanting, "Oh, White Tiger Sect..."

"The hero who holds sway over weapons and chaotic times."

"Who has found you? Was it Breaking Army, or was it Shaking Light?"

After posing such a question, Xue Daoyong closed his eyes. Then, suddenly raising his hand, he stopped Li Guanyi’s actions, gently saying, "Don’t speak, this old man does not wish to know these things..."

"I am a gambler."

"A hopeless gambler who should’ve been hanged long ago."

"But even a gambler like me has managed to live to this ripe old age and even multiplied the family fortune of the Xue Family several times over. The key lies in knowing when to stop; I understand myself."

"The gambler’s nature is endless."

"No gambler can hold back, seeing the brilliance of a chaotic world. All the high stakes will fly into the flames like moths to a flame, regardless of whether they know that the flames will reduce them to ashes; they are willing to take the risk, hoping that the fire they feed will brighten the inferno even more."

"Heroes of old and failed rebels alike were all the same."

"There has never been an exception."

The ferocious tiger of turbulent times looked at the young man sitting quietly before him, a broad smile spreading across his face:

"When I know more, I can’t help but stack greater stakes on the gambling table of chaotic times. In doing so, I would surely bet the entire Xue Family. I should stop here, no matter how tumultuous the world is; I only need to know one thing."

"You are the Qilin’er of the Xue Family."

The elder closed his eyes, speaking softly, "You grew up alongside Shuangtao. My daughter has held you in her arms, and even the Emperor has met the youthful you."

"Hereafter, the Xue Family will give their utmost effort to substantiate your background."

"Even Wen Lie should not dare to lay a hand on you in Chen Country’s Capital, a distinguished general of Ying with armor-clad and Divine Weapon in hand. If he has thousands of soldiers behind him, then to him, this old man is just a common old man. But this is Jiangzhou City."

"This is the place that the Xue Family has nurtured from generation to generation."

"My old self, at the age of one hundred thirty, can still wield one of the top ten mystical War Bows of the world, can still hunt exotic beasts fifty miles away, piercing through mountains with a single arrow."

"The Military School advocates for calculated tactics, exchanging the small for the big. If he wants to kill you, he will have to pay the ultimate price."

Li Guanyi was astonished to ask, "Elder Xue, can you defeat Yuwen Lie?"

The elder replied, "I am certainly no match for him."

Then, looking at Li Guanyi, he smiled and said, "But before he kills me, I can shoot and kill Ying’s Crown Prince Jiang Gao and Prince Jiang Yuan in General Yuwen’s Mansion."

"A famous general always has the grand ambition to flatten kingdoms and unify the world."

"If he dares to hurt you..."

"I will ensure his complete ruin, incite chaos once more in the world."

"I will ignite the fire, burn this sham peace, and have his grand ambition accompany you to Netherworld, pinning him forever to the pillar of shame in the annals of history."

"What do you say?"

The elder’s face beamed with a smile, stretching out his hand, his demeanor composed with a heroic air, "All heroes of this world are but gambling ruffians, Qilin’er. Will you join this old man, join this fifth-ranking Divine General of the land, and make a bet with the whole world?!"

"Should we lose the bet, the fifth-ranking Divine General would be disgraced, chaos arising once again in the world."

"Should we win..."

"Then set forth toward the world you envision!"

The old man before his eyes was usually just a doting grandfather, but whenever Li Guanyi needed support and a backbone, he would reveal his razor-sharp fangs, embodying the stance of a powerhouse of chaotic times. Each instance stabilized Li Guanyi’s heart in an instant.

Li Guanyi smiled and reached out his hand.

He clenched his fist and brushed it against the elder’s fist.

Suddenly, his own life seemed to feel secure, and for some reason, despite the elder not being as strong as that fifth-ranking Divine General, when he said he could safeguard Li Guanyi’s life, Guanyi was strongly convinced that the elder would fulfil his promise.

He declared earnestly, "For such great kindness, Elder Xue, I must repay it someday."

Xue Daoyong shook his head decisively, saying cheerfully, "Don’t worry about such formalities, I don’t need any sort of repayment from you."
