Xia Li looked at Li Xiaoyao and said, "If you back down now, we can let bygones be bygones."

She was different from Chen Feng, who was arrogant and conceited. She was thoughtful and paid great attention to detail.

Her intuition told her that if they really started a fight with Li Xiaoyao, even if they had the support of other forces, they would definitely not come out on top.

Li Xiaoyao was so powerful that if he went berserk, even if they managed to kill him, he would take several of them down with him.

Just as Xia Li was ready to defuse the situation, Chen Feng suddenly burst out, pointing at Li Xiaoyao with his eyebrows furrowed and eyes wide, "Aren't you mad? Continue then, let's see how long you can stay wild today!"

Xia Li's Xiubrow furrowed slightly, yet she sighed.

Perhaps she had overthought it, no matter how formidable Li Xiaoyao was, they had enough people to join forces and Li Xiaoyao would definitely be powerless to fight back.

Li Xiaoyao's eyes were cold and stern, his gaze moved inch by inch over Xia Li's beautiful face, finally shifting to Chen Feng's face. He said, "I said that today, no matter who comes, you are going to die!"

Chen Feng felt a chill in his heart under Li Xiaoyao's stare, but still glared back and shouted loudly, "A bastard dares to speak to me like this."

Xia Li turned her head and said, "I request the assistance of the elders."

Hehuan Sect, the Long Family, and the Luo Family, all of which had deep hatred for Li Xiaoyao in the Human Realm, saw this as an opportunity to both make amends with the Rakshasa Sect and to kill Li Xiaoyao for some retribution—why wouldn't they take it?

"When the Rakshasa Sect asks for help, we naturally will not shirk," the elders of the various sects said as they stepped forward to the bow of the ship, speaking loudly.

Li Xiaoyao looked down with an impassive gaze, his right hand holding the Ancient Sword, left hand forming hand seals, not wasting words with them. In this kind of situation, it was time to fight outright.

The three elders of the Nangong Family were also troubled by this turn of events.

Indeed, they were allies of the Li Family, but an alliance was built on mutual benefit. They never imagined that Li Xiaoyao would be so trouble-prone, attracting the attention of so many forces with just one trip out to sea, even the Rakshasa Sect.

This was not Xuan Country, but Hui Country.

The opposition was numerous and powerful; if they killed them, so be it. Even if the Nangong Family were furious, they would have to suppress their anger considering the bigger picture. If they were to die here today, it would have been for nothing.

The Li Family was different. Li Yunchen and Li Tinghai would absolutely not stand by and watch Li Xiaoyao be attacked.

But to retreat just like that, without considering the Li Family, would inevitably damage the reputation of the Nangong Family.

It wouldn't do to say one second that the Nangong Family were allies of the Li Family and the next second, when the Li Family was in danger, to leave them in danger without a care. If word of that got out, how could the Nangong Family save face?

"Qi Tianhe, it seems you all truly have no shame," Li Yunchen said with a smile and a tone of mockery, "To pander to the Rakshasa Sect, you are joining hands shamelessly against a junior of the Li Family. I am embarrassed for you."

The elders of Hehuan Sect, the Long Family, and the Luo Family grimaced upon hearing this and retorted, "Hmph, Li Yunchen, don't try to provoke us with your words. Your Li Family is oblivious to the inevitable, just accept your fate."

"Do you think it's the Li Family who will die today?" Li Xiaoyao, high in the sky, suddenly spoke, cutting off Qi Tianhe's words, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the family elders who had responded to the Rakshasa Sect's call, "Today, not a single one of you will escape."

"Li Xiaoyao, you are indeed formidable. To reach such achievements at your age, even though I long to kill you, I must admit you are a genius," Qi Tianhe stared at him, his murderous aura intensifying with each word, "Given time, your achievements might reach the peak of this world, but sadly, you do not have that time."

"Oh? So, you think you can kill me?" Shaking his head, Li Xiaoyao's left hand had already formed the seal for the Thunder Commanding Art, saying, "Then, let me show you my true strength. You are but ants, killing you is as easy as taking eggs from a hen!"

As his words fell, Li Xiaoyao raised the Ancient Sword high in his hand.

"Boom!"

The already dark sky suddenly gathered thick thunderclouds at this moment, forming a terrifying expanse of thunderclouds as if a storm were imminent.

"Not good, it's the Thunder Commanding Art!" Qi Tianhe's face changed; he finally remembered that this kid also knew some spells.

The elders of the Long Family and Luo Family also changed their expressions, saying, "We actually forgot this part, this kid has studied spells too."

The most shocked were Xia Li and Chen Feng.

They were from the Ancient Rakshasa Sect and knew full well how difficult it was to learn a set of spells.

Chen Feng began cultivating the Spirit Burst Technique at the age of five, and it wasn't until he was twenty-six that he achieved great success, taking him a full twenty-one years. This shows how difficult it is to cultivate spells.

Yet here was the illegitimate child of the Li Family, who had mastered a spell, and it was the Thunder Commanding Art.

You must know that spells are differentiated by their level of difficulty.

For example, the Spirit Burst Technique that Chen Feng practiced was the most basic and simplest spell.

The so-called Spirit Burst Technique, put simply, is about gathering nature's spiritual energy in a certain way and compressing it to the size of an egg before using it as an attack.

It's the simplest kind of spell.

Although simple, the destructive power of this kind of spell is also immense.

Ordinary cultivators learn only some advanced martial arts techniques, and even if occasionally some family clans have Art Technique Manuals, they are not very powerful spells. Moreover, to fully comprehend and integrate a spell requires more than just time.

Spells place strict demands on the perceptiveness of a cultivator.

But Li Xiaoyao had not only learned a spell but also one of the most difficult kinds of spells to invoke.

Invoking spells means connecting with the forces of heaven and earth, subsequently directing nature's spiritual energy as a method of attack.

For instance, the Thunder Commanding Art uses complex and obscure hand signs to call upon the thunder element lurking beyond the clouds, causing it to obey one's command and launch an attack.

Those in the know understand just how terrifying Li Xiaoyao's seemingly simple Thunder Commanding Art is.

Those who are unaware simply think that Li Xiaoyao knows a spell, that's all.

"I'll start with you!" Looking at Qi Tianhe, Li Xiaoyao gave a piercing smile, his right hand holding the Ancient Sword directing the Heavenly Thunder, slashing toward Qi Tianhe.

"Boom!"

Rolling thick ink clouds, lightning snakes leaped within the clouds.

A purple lightning bolt, half a meter thick, broke through the thunderclouds and descended from the sky, aiming directly at the fishing boat where Qi Tianhe was.

Everyone was shocked; Qi Tianhe's hair stood on end, and he felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, up his spine, to the crown of his head.
