Chapter 543: Chapter 386: Going to the Appointment Together_2

"Fan Family Master, Fan Wentian."

"Meng Family Master, Meng Daoxian."

"Qi Family Patriarch, Qi Yunshan."

"Family Head Zhao, Zhao Ding."

The four men bowed their fists in unison to Li Yi, their attitude respectful: "We meet Mr. Li."

"We meet Mr. Li." The twenty top experts behind them also bowed their fists, bowing respectfully.

This bow seemed to signify that the four great families were bowing their heads in agreement to honor Li Yi from now on.

Whether in the Gang Refining Realm or the Refining God Realm, at this moment, everyone had to sheathe their sharpness and dare not show any displeasure.

For the four great families already knew that Li Yi had entered Ghost Street tonight and had slain the Ghost God Tianxiong, indicating that from today onwards, the millennia-old situation of the Four Seas and Eight Continents was about to change, and the world’s pattern was also destined to be rewritten, and they were about to witness this historic moment.

At this moment, they felt both nervous and filled with excitement and joy.

"No need for excessive formalities. We are not strangers to each other, so let’s dispense with the niceties. Meng Family Master, have you managed to arrange for your Meng Family’s Yin God, Meng Fanxing, to inform the Gods and Ghosts about my challenge?" Li Yi, with his silver eyes, glanced calmly over everyone, then his gaze landed on a burly middle-aged man clad in brocade.

Meng Family Master, Meng Daoxian, hurriedly responded: "Mr. Li, I have already dispatched all the Yin Gods of my Meng Family to notify them, and the other family heads have also dispatched their Yin Gods. However, the Eight Continents are vast, and the other four great families are completely unaware of this matter, so it will still take some effort. But rest assured, Mr. Li, the Gods and Ghosts will definitely arrive by dawn tonight."

"Very good. I dislike trouble, so instead of seeking out every individual Ghost God, I’d rather challenge them all at once and decide the outcome in one battle. But I wonder, how many Gods and Ghosts are there in the Four Seas and Eight Continents?" Li Yi asked.

Fan Family Master, Fan Wentian, immediately responded: "We four great families have been investigating the Gods and Ghosts since reaching an agreement with Mr. Li. Excluding the Gods and Ghosts dwelling in obscurity within the Four Seas realms, there are approximately twenty-four within the Eight Continent areas, and certainly, no more than twenty will be able to attend."

"Many Gods and Ghosts are recorded, but have not appeared for over a hundred years, likely perished for some reason or sunk into deep slumber."

"Quite a number indeed." Li Yi nodded approvingly upon hearing this.

For a world of the Four Seas and Eight Continents to accumulate so many Gods and Ghosts is remarkable, especially since it is a universe where energy is scarce. It definitely requires exceptional talent and profound opportunities to reach the Dharma Manifestation Realm in this world. These Gods and Ghosts would be formidable beings in any other world.

But the upper limits of this world lock these once proud Martial Artists into a state neither human nor ghost.

That’s fine.

Since I am here today, it’s just as well that I help them to be released, sparing these Gods and Ghosts from lingering in the world, consuming their heroic vitality"

"In that case, Mr. Li, are you confident?" Qi Family Patriarch, Qi Yunshan, asked with slight unease.

They were now in a difficult position.

The message had already been sent out, and the lives of the four great families were entirely in Li Yi’s hands, with no way back. Although they felt it was somewhat rash, the moment Li Yi had slain Ghost God Tianxiong, the fate of the four great families was sealed: either they would govern the Eight Continents forever or be purged by the Gods and Ghosts, vanishing like smoke.

"Merely twenty or so Gods and Ghosts, nothing significant." Li Yi said calmly.

Having fought with Tianxiong, he knew the strength of the Gods and Ghosts, so he wasn’t particularly concerned.

If in a universe full of energy like Earth, these beings could exhibit the power equivalent to those in the Spirit Power Realm. Even if only their souls remained after their bodies decayed, they should not be underestimated.

Hearing Li Yi’s confidence reassured the family heads slightly.

Indeed.

Without certainty of victory, he wouldn’t act so rashly.

Li Yi then looked towards the city outskirts: "Let’s choose Daqing Mountain Foot as the place for our duel. The feng shui is good there, many have been buried there, and adding some Gods and Ghosts will probably be no problem. If we fight inside Sanyang City, I’m afraid the city itself might be destroyed. After the duel, your task, the experts of the four great families, is only one: to protect Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall and my residence, preventing any Yin Gods or ghosts from seizing the opportunity to attack."

"Mr. Li, please rest assured, our four great families’ experts will defend to the death and ensure not a single harm comes to your residence." The family heads immediately vowed earnestly.

Now was the time to display their merits. After today, no such opportunity would come again.

Li Yi nodded, then motioned: "Then please enter my residence for the banquet. I’ve stewed a pot of fine meat and wish to share it with you all."

The members of the four great families politely exchanged a few words before accepting the invitation to enter the residence.

Upon entering the residence, they were greeted by the smell of an unusual meat fragrance wafting through the air, seeing a large pot in the courtyard, boiling some exotic beast’s meat. Just the scent made their Qi-Blood surge within them.

"Big Brother, this dragon meat is too nourishing. I had only a sip of the soup and felt my Qi-Blood nearly bursting. No, ordinary Martial Artists cannot consume this." At that moment, Shou Hou ran over, his body flushed red, Qi-Blood boiling—a sign of excessive nourishment.
