Chapter 645 - 455: The Failed Calculation_2
"Li Yi has already become a force to be reckoned with. If we don’t kill him today, and he continues to breach boundaries a few more times, his growth might become a serious threat in the future."
"Indeed, fellow cultivator Yuan Ye speaks the truth. Others may be inconsequential, but Li Yi must die. He has already slain over a dozen Golden Core cultivators in one breath and reverse-slayed two Nascent Soul masters. His progress in strength is far too rapid. If he doesn’t die, I cannot rest easy."
"Taixian Weng, I understand you. You neither want to offend our sect elders, nor dare to blatantly cross the Golden Academy. After all, they do have some experts who have crossed boundaries and left. If they return one day with the intent of settling accounts, you, as a senior, would bear the brunt. How about this: After killing Li Yi today, find a way to apologize to the Golden Academy."
The Nascent Soul cultivators present had united in their resolve: Li Yi must die at all costs.
Taixian Weng merely smiled without speaking, as he knew this outcome was inevitable. However, he could not voice it himself—it needed to come from these Nascent Soul cultivators of the major sects.
"Since everyone has spoken, this old Taoist will follow your lead."
Then he transmitted his voice to Li Chengyu: "In this battle, you must kill Li Yi. At critical moments, do not hold back. If the situation becomes unfavorable, I will assist you in secret. After killing Li Yi, gather his possessions and escape back to Xuanxian Continent. I will handle the aftermath. However, once it’s done, I will take the Xuanhuang Seal."
"Senior, your appetite seems rather large," Li Chengyu said, narrowing his eyes. Frankly, he didn’t need Taixian Weng’s help; he could kill Li Yi alone.
"That bracelet of five colors is also a treasure, not to mention the Divine Needle, and my Glazed Golden Light Mirror, plus the Jiao Long Armor... With so many opportunities, don’t you think they are worth the price of one Xuanhuang Seal?" Taixian Weng replied.
Li Chengyu’s expression flickered as he realized Taixian Weng was set on obtaining the Xuanhuang Seal.
And why not?
