Chapter 75: Wu family of Lantier Town
Chapter 75: Wu family of Lantier Town
Soon, the Violet Tempest Python was moving within the Silver Iron Forest. Li Wei wasn't worried about its safety; green represented an ally!
As expected, As the Violet Tempest Python ventured deeper, Li Wei also saw many spirit beasts!
The nests of these spirit beasts were in the center of the Silver Iron Forest, within a valley. They seemed to be serving the king inside the valley.
Upon entering the valley, A gigantic pig came into view, more resembling a mammoth!
It was covered in black fur all over, with only its bulky physique and pig snout hinting at its porcine features. Its four limbs were so robust that one couldn't help but wonder what immense force would be required to knock it down. Its face was also covered in black fur, obscuring its features and giving this colossal creature the appearance of a benevolent elder.
Only the two sharp, thick tusks protruding from the corners of its mouth revealed the ferocity of this Demon King.
[Mintu Pig]
[Demon King of the Silver Iron Forest, also the guardian of the birds, beasts, flowers, and trees within!]
"Little snake, I know you. You're the snake from the Beast Blood Fruit tree. You were tamed by the human Li family and brought humans into the Silver Iron Forest to hunt demonic beasts."
The Li family's in-law had a deep and aged voice.
"Hiss~"
The Violet Tempest Python was clearly very afraid of the Pig Demon King. Despite being significantly larger, it lowered its body in a clear display of extreme fear.
"Don't be afraid. You haven't caused excessive bloodshed. After my warning, you were able to make the Li family outside the Silver Iron Forest restrain themselves, and you have earned my gratitude for that."
Hearing the Pig Demon King's understanding, the Violet Tempest Python finally relaxed.
Li Wei watched the exchange between the snake and the pig.
In truth, he didn't understand what the Violet Tempest Python was saying, but he could guess from the Pig Demon King's words. He was also surprised by the Pig Demon King's intelligence. This was the first time he had encountered such a being as a Demon King.
Immediately after, Li Wei began conversing with the Pig Demon King through the Violet Tempest Python.
He explained that Bai Rourou had married into the Li family.
"I am already aware of this matter."
The Pig Demon King's black fur twitched slightly, and Li Wei had a feeling that it was smiling.
"Please convey my thanks to the Li family. They treat my daughter well, and the children she bore are healthy. If possible, I hope my daughter can bring her mate and children to visit me."
"Hiss~"
The Violet Tempest Python nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that the Pig Demon King had a favorable impression of the Li family, Li Wei no longer hesitated and told him about the seven major families' plan to attack the Silver Iron Forest.
"Hmph! Greedy, selfish, and ungrateful humans!"
The Pig Demon King was furious. "What attack? They have repeatedly challenged the bottom line of the Silver Iron Forest, challenged my bottom line. Let them come! The Silver Iron Forest will be fully prepared!"
Li Wei frowned. He continued to communicate through the Violet Tempest Python, expressing the Li family's wish for the demonic beasts in the Silver Iron Forest to temporarily avoid the conflict.
But the Pig Demon King let out a long sigh.
"I appreciate the Li family's kind intentions, but the Silver Iron Forest is not only a habitat for demonic beasts but also a habitat for the trees and a pure land. Humans often say 'to settle down and take root,' and countless lives in the Silver Iron Forest have long been rooted here. Our lives are all interconnected with the Silver Iron Forest."
"Even during the years of severe drought, we used our life force to sustain the vitality of the Silver Iron Forest. Now, facing another drought, all beings in the Silver Iron Forest are willing to protect this land with their lives!"
Li Wei also let out a long sigh.
When he sent the Violet Tempest Python back, there was a look of admiration on his face.
Li Wei also understood that there was no way to dissuade them. Just as outsiders repeatedly invaded the Li family, the Li family would also fight to the death for their ancestral land.
That was not just their homeland, but also intertwined with the emotions that generations of the family had poured into it. There were the purest memories, the laughter and tears of joy and sorrow that could never be abandoned.
"I must help with this matter!"
Li Wei suddenly narrowed his eyes. Besides the Pig Demon King being an in-law, he also saw the immense benefits in this!
The Pig Demon King clearly had a very favorable impression of the Li family.
If the Li family helped the Pig Demon King overcome this current difficulty, it would be equivalent to having the Pig Demon King as an ally, like a relative through marriage.
At the same time, The previous problem of being unable to enter the depths of the Silver Iron Forest for mining would be solved. The Silver Iron Forest would become the Li family's backyard, and its environment would also be more suitable for the Li family to cultivate demonic beasts!
As for the risks involved?
"Hahaha, over the years, has our Li family ever not faced risks?"
After conveying his plan to the Li family through the Violet Tempest Python, Li Dalong laughed heartily and said, "Ancestor is right. With so many benefits, how can our Li family not help our in-laws?"
"Thank you, Ancestor! Thank you, Father!"
Bai Rourou wept with joy.
In the following days, the Li family was busy with the Silver Iron Forest matter while also developing rapidly.
Li Wei was also pondering solutions.
And that guy Li Yaozu, after becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator, also gave Li Wei a slight surprise.
[Your descendant, Li Yaozu, after forming the Black Blood Hall, has trained 50 Qi Refiners!]
[After years of training, they have completely mastered the "Spear Forest Formation"! ]
Spear Forest Formation, That was the formation used by the Hu family when they attacked Tailin Town. They held long spears, forming an array with their spears, their True Qi interconnected, possessing immense destructive power!
In one wave, Nearly 80% of the Li family's hundred or so demonic beasts were killed.
This shows the formidable power of this spear formation!
And at this moment, On the training ground of Green Valley Village, fifty young and strong men, all wearing Black Iron Beast Blood armor and carrying longbows, quivers, spears, and long knives at their waists, were holding spears and throwing them in unison towards the distance.
"Whoosh!"
With the sound of piercing air, those long spears infused with True Qi formed a net of True Qi in the sky!
"50 people are this powerful?"
Li Wei looked at the ground pierced into a net-like pattern, his mouth slightly agape. "If it were 500 people, or even 5,000 people, what Lantier Town Wu family..."
Thinking of this, Li Wei narrowed his eyes.
"The Wu family of Lantier Town? You've brought this upon yourselves!"
A bold idea suddenly arose in his mind. They had already dominated Tailin Town, so what was the big deal about dominating another town like Lantier?
If they could annex the entire Sky Jade City, that would be even better.
