Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 296: Eliminating the Li family

But now he finally understood. They were not cowards. They were a group of terrifying beasts lying in wait.

They are secretly amassing power, accumulating a force that no single tribe, or even an entire region, can contend with!

The middle-aged Wu clansman glanced at the chieftain who had died a miserable death on the ground. A tortoise shell on the chiefʼs body gleamed brightly. He trembled as he picked up the tortoise shell. This object was the spiritual artifact used for communication between the priest and the chief!

”Priest...”

He intended to report the current situation, but suddenly he froze again.

Shadows were enveloping everything around them. Outside of Green Valley Town, the ground cracked like a spiderweb. Inside Green Valley Town, that ten-meter-tall blood-red ancient tree was growing larger; its crimson canopy was redder than the setting sun.

It grew until it was a hundred meters tall, and finally, the ancient tree opened its eyes on its trunk.

”Rumble!”

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and a stone beast crawled out of the ground. The ancient trees around Green Valley Town, which possessed sentience, were walking on their roots, following the Li familyʼs army!

”Priest, we... weʼre finished.”

”Quickly, take our people and flee.”

.....

The former manor of the city lord of Sky Jade City had now been transformed into a massive mountain due to the settlement of the Spirit Jade Division.

Inside a dark cave, High Priest Guan Tian, who was in seclusion, furrowed his brows. For some reason, he felt particularly restless today.

Before him were his subordinate priests and chiefs.

”High Priest, through utilizing the Li family these past years, we have unified the Beast Division and the Ghost Division. Now both sides have become our subordinate tribes, and the entire Azure Cloud region is under the control of our Spirit Jade Division. We no longer need the Li family. Eliminating the Li family is imperative!”

”Hahaha, those cowardly humans, did they really think our Spirit Jade Division would treat them as one of our own?”

”That scoundrel Li Kuangtu never allows us to enter the inner city of Green Valley Town. I fear he harbors treacherous intentions. Itʼs best to eliminate the Li family as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.”

”...”

Hearing this, Guan Tian nodded slightly, his uneasy feeling beginning to ease.

Thatʼs right, what was there to be uneasy about?

For thirty years, he had been extremely glad about his decision to cooperate with the Li family. Through the Li family, he had eliminated dissidents and gradually took over the entire Azure Cloud region. Within the Azure Cloud region, the Spirit Jade Division was now invincible!

”Hahaha, those cowardly humans, did they really think our Spirit Jade Division would treat them as one of our own?”

Even the two Divisions that had initially come with the Spirit Jade Division were now willing to follow his lead. The two high priests of their tribes had become his subordinate priests. Later, another three Divisions that wanted to come and get a share of the spoils were all driven away by him.

Now, this Azure Cloud region had long since become his territory. In a thousand years, he might even break through to the Deity Transformation stage!

”Those not of our kind harbor different intentions. Although the Li family are cowards, they cannot be underestimated.”

Guan Tian waved his hand dismissively. ”Have the Beast and Ghost Divisions go together. Half the strength of my Spirit Jade Division should be enough to flatten the Li family. I quite like that seventh-grade spirit tree of the Li family. Capture it alive and bring it back. As for that scoundrel Li Dalong, I want him alive as well.”

Speaking of Li Dalong, he narrowed his eyes. He still remembered the humiliation Li Dalong had inflicted on him during his birthday banquet that day.

”Yes, sir!”

The numerous priests and chiefs acknowledged the order and were turning to leave when their expressions suddenly changed.

The tortoise shells on their bodies were flashing.

Guan Tianʼs eyes narrowed even further, and anger instantly filled the cave. Several chiefs reported to him that the Li family... had rebelled!

Just as he was about to send out his Nascent Soul.

”High Priest, something terrible has happened! In our tribal lands in the Endless Forest, someone is undergoing a thunder tribulation! Everything... everything has been utterly destroyed!”

”High Priest, itʼs the Thunderfire Demon Cave! The experts from Azure Cloud region who were hiding in the Thunderfire Demon Cave suddenly made their move. Theyʼve all charged out and are attacking the Beast Division! And... and in the Ghost Division, there are several unkillable beings wreaking havoc. Li Yaowen of the Li family and the Heavenly Star Sword Saint from Starfall Region are also there, waiting for an opportunity to strike!”

”High Priest...”

These ones after another call made Guan Tianʼs expression dazed. He seemed to sense tentacles reaching out to him from the darkness, silently and stealthily.

He looked down at the tortoise shell in his hand... the tortoise shell showed no abnormalities. Todayʼs divination was neither ominous nor auspicious, only as calm as still water.

”High Priest!”

Suddenly, a tribesman came rushing in from outside the cave, ”Someoneʼs charging in and attacking!”

Guan Tian took a deep breath, ”Is it the Li family?”

”Yes... no, not exactly.”

The Wu clansman shook his head and said in a low voice, ”Itʼs only one person, the head of the Li family, Li Kuangtu!”
