Second Uncle’s expression gradually became more and more irritable.
“Tianlan, I know what you said, but now is different from the past. These things no longer work. The greatest reason is the fist!”
Li Tianlan sighed softly, and a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes.
“Second Uncle, I know what you mean, and I also understand the reason why you are doing this.”
“Right now, strength is indeed the foundation to establish a foothold, but can we only rely on this kind of method to establish a foothold?”
“Is there no other way to increase strength? Do we have to use this kind of method that uses the lives of our clansmen to increase strength?”
“I don’t want to accept such a method, but the clan has been scheming for a hundred years. If I give up, the clan’s hundred years of scheming will be in vain. I also don’t want to do this.”
“You are right. Perhaps I am really indecisive. I do not know what choice I should make...”
The determination in Li Tianlan’s eyes was no longer there. He began to become a little lost.
If he chose to agree, the lives of over a hundred clan members would be lost because of this. Everything that he had insisted on would be shattered into nothingness.
However, if he did not agree, all the plans that the clan head had been scheming for a hundred years would fall apart. The already difficult clan head would likely continue to decline.
Just as the confusion in Li Tianlan’s eyes became increasingly dense, Li Tianlan’s father, Li Xiuwen, spoke from the side.
“Ai, Tianlan, I am aware of the struggle in the depths of your heart. To be honest, even i, the person in charge of the clan, do not know what to choose.”
“If I were ten years younger, I would definitely force you to agree. For the sake of the clan, I would do anything!”
“But now, after seeing so many life and death departures, I can’t help but question what the clan is for.”
“Is it for the sake of standing on a higher ground, or to better protect the clansmen?”
“If sacrificing a portion of the clansmen can exchange for a better life for another portion of the clansmen, what choice should I make?”
“From the perspective of a bystander, I might choose to sacrifice without hesitation. After all, this can make the entire clan better.”
“But, what if the sacrificed clansmen are his family members?”
“If he sacrificed this time, what about the next time?”
“Is it really good to use the strength and status gained by sacrificing clansmen?”
“According to the genealogical records, the Li family Emperor from a thousand years ago chose a million lions to fight against the Barbarians in exchange for ten years of stability at the border.”
“He clearly only used a large amount of gold and silver, plus ten to twenty thousand people at the border to be sent to be slaves, which could be exchanged for twenty years of stability. But he chose a bloody battle, and in the end, the losses reached two hundred thousand. Is he wrong?”
“I don’t know what to choose either. skymist, make your own decision.”
Li Xiuwen’s voice quickly magnified in Li Tianlan’s ears. It became louder and louder, causing Li Tianlan’s eyes to gradually become firm.
Li Xiuwen’s expression in front of him kept changing, moving back and forth between a normal human and a white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead.
Soon, Li Xiuwen in front of Li Tianlan turned into a white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead, while his second uncle beside him turned into a gray smoke and quickly disappeared into the surrounding air.
Looking at the white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead, Li Tianlan frowned and asked, “Who are you?”
The white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead also frowned, and then softly said, “Unfortunately, you, this woman, actually don’t have the slightest regret for this. I actually can’t influence you.”
Li Tianlan instantly understood what it was saying.., it coldly said, “Although I was a little lost at that time and did not know whether the choice was right or wrong, since I have chosen, I should not regret it. Instead, it is because I am determined to continue down this path!”
“Haha, Good! You have said it very well. With this kind of you, it is a waste of your talent to allow you to be my carrier. It is just right for you to become the nourishment of my soul.”
“In the future, you and I will be one body. You must properly ‘teach’me these great principles. Hahaha.”
The white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead laughed loudly. After which, the eyes on its forehead suddenly shot out a ray of gray light. In an instant, it landed on Li Tianlan’s body.
Li Tianlan’s expression was cautious. However, she immediately felt that her body was unable to move.
Rays of light surfaced from his body. After which, they slowly flowed towards the white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead.
Following the flow of these rays of light, Li Tianlan felt that his mental condition had begun to rapidly decline. It was as though he had been bewitched as he began to become lost.
The white-furred tiger with eyes on its forehead in front of him frowned slightly. It looked at the gray light that was connected to its body. It was as though it was dissatisfied that the speed at which this gray light transmitted the light was too slow.
However, it sighed helplessly and could only wait quietly.
...
Zhao Yuheng was killing people!
The area in front of them was blood-red. All sorts of human figures were floating around them. They were like malicious ghosts as they pounced on Zhao Yuheng.
Their palms were blood-red and seemed to be covered in blood. Their fingernails were all long and turned into the sharpest weapons as they grabbed at Zhao Yuheng.
Zhao Yuheng held a long sword in his hand and frowned as he looked at the ghostly figures around him. He kept waving the long sword in his hand and killing the figures around him who were attacking her.
A large number of figures were killed. Accompanied by shrill screams, they turned into gray smoke and enveloped Zhao Yuheng’s body.
“Cackle, cackle, cackle, cackle, cackle, cackle. Can you finish?”
“We are all dead! Those killed by your Zhao family, why fear to die again?”
“Even if I die today, I will drag you, a vested interest, to hell!”
“That’s right, why can she awaken the 9th rank? Why should we die with her? Why! Why!”
A sharp voice from the front of the mouth of these ghosts, constantly filled in Zhao Yuheng’s ears rise, crazy towards Zhao Yuheng’s ears in the drill.
Zhao Yuheng’s expression did not change at all. It was as though he had not heard these words.
The longsword in his hand continued to be swung. Sword light flashed as the malicious ghost-like human figures in front of him were killed one after another. They quickly disappeared into the surrounding space.
It was unknown whether it was because the gray fog in the surroundings had become more and more. The faces of the malicious ghost-like human figures charging over gradually became clearer.
Numerous human faces appeared on these ghost-like figures, causing Zhao Yuheng to instantly frown.
This was because these human faces gave her a very familiar feeling.
It was as though she had seen them somewhere before...
