There was no trace of negotiation in Li Bi's tone, and his attitude was very tough.
The Haoran Sect has been very strong recently, which is a threat to the Nine Star Empire. It must be suppressed, and the suppression cannot be too light.
The royal family will never allow anyone who is not afraid of them to appear within their sphere of influence.
Just like the Haoran Sect, they actually dared to kill members of their royal family in public, which had already touched the royal family's bottom line.
If it is not suppressed, how can other forces still have awe towards the royal family in the future?
Yun Mo's expression was extremely grim. "Elder Li Bi, the only person who died was Li Liang. Isn't this punishment too harsh?"
"Excessive?"
Li Bi sneered and said, "So your choice is to destroy the entire Haoran Sect? You killed my royal family first. Even if I destroy your Haoran Sect, no one will say anything wrong."
"Don't think that just because your Haoran Sect has one Immortal King, it's enough to make the royal family wary. It's just one Immortal King. Even if there are three or four, it's not enough for our royal family to be wary."
"Of course, the Immortal King is also a formidable figure. My royal family has given him some respect, which is why we didn't destroy the Haoran Sect. Otherwise, do you think the Haoran Sect would still be able to survive?"
His words were full of unquestionableness and there was no intention of negotiation at all.
He seemed to be the master of the future of Haoran Sect.
Yun Mo covered his chest with his hands. Li Bi's previous attack had caused him considerable injuries. His face was ashen. A mere Li Liang wanted to destroy him, the sect leader, and the genius of their Haoran Sect.
How ridiculous this is.
Is this the royal family?
Yun Mo believed that he was still from a righteous sect, so most of the things he did were not against human nature. He also understood the cause and effect of Li Liang's matter. It was Li Liang who was wrong, and Su Chen killing him was considered to be eliminating evil and protecting the good.
But the royal family is so unreasonable.
Yun Mo suppressed his anger, forced a smile on his face, and said humbly, "Elder Li Bi, my Haoran Sect is at least a vassal of the royal family. We pay tribute to the royal family every year. Could you please be more tolerant of the royal family? In addition, my Haoran Sect is willing to provide any compensation."
This is how a sect leader is. He has to do things that will bring him attention, and he also has to do things that will embarrass him.
As the head, he cannot escape, and any problem must be solved by him.
Li Bi's face was filled with impatience. "This elder has already said that your things are not worthy of our royal family. So, Master Yun Mo doesn't want to die? Or do you want me to do it myself?"
"Don't blame me for being ruthless. If I take action, no one from your Haoran Sect will survive."
After he finished speaking, an extremely strong murderous intent emanated from his body, and the entire hall was filled with this chilling aura.
Li Bi's eyes were full of mockery. The more Yun Mo wanted him to let go of Haoran Sect, the more unlikely he would agree.
The Haoran Sect is just a small sect, do you really think you have some weight?
He wanted to let everyone in Fengyang County know that there would be no good consequences if they offended their royal family. He wanted to make the Haoran Sect suffer an extremely miserable end so that others would learn their lesson.
Although there is a chain of contempt within the royal family, the collateral branches are indeed insignificant.
But the collateral branches are also members of the royal family. If we ignore their killing, it will greatly affect the prestige of the royal family. After all, the royal family is also a collective. They prosper together and suffer together.
Yun Mo's eyes gradually became cold. Although he was not a bad person, he was not a good person either. Even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered, not to mention that he was still a human being.
Li Bi pressed on step by step, leaving him no chance to survive. Isn't that just forcing him?
But the question is...what should we do with the Haoran Sect?
Even if he fights his best, the royal family will definitely vent their anger on the Haoran Sect in the end. Can the Great Elder withstand it?
Yun Mo was filled with helplessness. When facing the royal family, he felt powerless. If he were alone, he could try to escape at all costs, but the problem was that the Haoran Sect was still here.
Li Bi seemed to be sure of him and sat there leisurely.
"Elder Li, does this mean you must destroy our Haoran Sect?"
Suddenly, a refreshing voice was heard, and the oppressive atmosphere in the hall immediately disappeared.
Li Bi's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he looked in the direction where the voice came from. There stood a man in snow-white clothes, with his hands behind his back. He had an extraordinary temperament and was obviously a hermit.
The moment he saw the Great Elder, Li Bi's eyes immediately became solemn.
Originally, I thought that the Immortal King of Haoran Sect had just broken through, but now it seems that the information was wrong. This person's cultivation level is definitely not just a breakthrough to the Immortal King level.
"You are the Grand Elder of Haoran Sect, right?"
Li Bi's words were cold.
The Great Elder smiled and said, "That's me, Elder Li Bi. Why don't we wait until the real master returns to discuss Li Liang's matter?"
"You said you wanted to kill Elder Su Chen. If he agrees, my Haoran Sect will naturally cooperate."
Li Bi snorted coldly and said in a stern tone, "So if he doesn't agree, then your Haoran Sect will not cooperate? Or do you think that with an Immortal King, you can challenge my royal family?"
Even though the Great Elder was not a newly-broken Immortal King, he was not afraid.
With his strength as a mid-stage Immortal King, he could hold out for a while even against a late-stage Immortal King. As long as the Great Elder dared to take action, he would directly send a message to the royal family for support, and then the Haoran Sect would be destroyed in an instant.
The Great Elder said calmly, "Of course not."
After saying this, he didn't say anything more.
Li Bi stared at the Great Elder's back, his eyes filled with coldness. After a while, he sneered and sat back in his chair.
"Okay, just call that Su Chen over here."
He wanted to see what the Haoran Sect was trying to do.
However, the Haoran Sect did make him extremely unhappy, so he had the intention to kill and wanted to destroy the Haoran Sect directly. However, there were powerful Immortal Kings in the Haoran Sect, and their strength was not weak. He alone was definitely not enough.
The only way is to let Haoran Sect take the initiative, or reject his previous request.
In this way, he could let the royal family kill him directly.
Yun Mo didn't quite understand the Great Elder's purpose, but since things had come to this, he had no choice but to do as he was told.
He used the leader's jade pendant to send a message to Su Chen.
Soon, a figure appeared outside the reception hall.
The person who came was Su Chen. He had been paying attention to Chunlan before, and the Haoran Sect didn't care much about it.
Xiaotian followed closely behind and came to Su Chen, but he did not enter the hall. Instead, he waited at the door.
Su Chen walked closer, glanced around, and then looked at Li Bi with cold eyes.
"Looking for me?"
Su Chen's completely indifferent attitude made Li Bi extremely unhappy.
As expected, the Haoran Sect should be destroyed.
