Chapter 138: Chapter 106: Disinherit the Son (Supplement 1/20)

Seeing Li Hao’s actions, Li Qianfeng was immediately stunned.

Soon after, his eyes widened slightly, as if he couldn’t believe what he was seeing, and his whole body started to tremble slightly with anger,

“What do you mean?” he asked.

“I’m afraid I might hurt you with a sword, so I’ll use this instead,” said Li Hao with a slight smile. However, deep down, he was filled with a cold intent to kill.

When the people in the yard heard Li Hao’s words, they were all shocked, doubting their own ears.

Facing off against Li Qianfeng, of the same Fifteen Li Realm and a direct disciple of the Buddha, considered a top prodigy, Li Hao actually planned to fight with only a chopstick?

What does it mean to be reckless in one’s youth? They had truly witnessed it today!

This was no longer mere rashness, but thorough contempt, looking down upon everything!

At the banquet, Li Tian Gang’s complexion changed drastically, filled with shock and anger in his eyes.

Previously, he had merely thought Li Hao to be arrogant, which he could barely understand—after all, with no one to guide him and achieving such a terrifying cultivation level at the age of fourteen, it’s no surprise he would be arrogant.

But now, it was more than just arrogance—it was arrogance to the extreme!

If it had been an ordinary Fifteen Li Realm opponent, perhaps there was a chance of winning, but Li Qianfeng was a disciple of the Buddha!

Moreover, even if Li Hao really had such ability, so what?

Using a chopstick to defeat his cousin would be such a blow to Li Qianfeng, causing him to never be able to hold his head high again, perhaps even shattering his resolve and ruining his life!

If that were the case, how could Li Tian Gang face his deceased brother?

Those at the banquet, like Jian Wudao and Chu Jiuyue, were shocked and had never expected this gifted young man to be so insane.

A chopstick defeating a prodigy, how could that be possible?

Was he replacing the sword with a chopstick? Jian Wudao was puzzled as he watched Li Hao’s stance, combined with the fact that the Li family had presented him with a famous sword, he was most likely a practitioner of the sword.

However, remembering the look in the eyes of that child all those years ago, he couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly. Ever since the mention of the Eternal Night Famous Sword, he had been displeased, feeling that the Li family had once again buried a famous sword.

This boy could not possibly achieve anything on the path of the sword!

Compared to the three of them, Liu Yue Rong and sword saint Jiang Haiping were both shocked and angry, but also a little pleased.

This Li Hao’s madness was self-destructive!

This thought also emerged in the minds of most of the guests present. Indeed, a genius is still a genius, but they also have the flaws of a genius, and these very flaws often lead to their early demise!

“You…” Li Qianfeng stared at Li Hao, although the young man’s face wore a warm smile, through his eyes, Li Qianfeng could feel the contempt.

“I will make you pay the price!” Li Qianfeng said through clenched teeth, word by word.

His aura suddenly expanded, causing his robes to billow, and with a sudden swing of his sword, he exclaimed in a low voice while grinding his teeth,

“Take my sword!!”

Li Hao stood calmly, his smile already faded, not even interested in forging a sarcastic smirk.

The clear Sword Qi fiercely cut towards him, lifting the hem of Li Hao’s robes and causing his hair to fly.

With the chopstick in his hand, he casually flicked it, sending out a slash of Sword Qi.

With a loud bang, the two Sword Qi instantly collided and neutralized each other, whipping up dust from the ground.

The tables and houses around, covered by Li Qingzheng’s power, were not affected.

But realizing that the two had already began fighting, Li Qingzheng suddenly remembered that he had not invited the ancestral spirits from the shrine to temporarily release their heart oath for them.

But soon, he came back to his senses, as neither of them followed the Li family ancestors’ soul lineage, they didn’t have to worry about hurting the other and breaking the oath.

“This kid…” Li Qingzheng muttered to himself, but his gaze was fixed on the center of the courtyard. At first, he was sure that Li Hao could win, but now he was somewhat nervous at Li Hao’s overconfidence.

The brief exchange clearly didn’t use full strength, but they seemed evenly matched, which surprised those around them.

“Hm?”

Jian Wudao’s eyes narrowed slightly, the Sword Qi that the young man had just flicked out seemed to have a naturally perfect feel to it.

Li Qianfeng’s eyes were cold, with a hint of murderous intent. He had not expected the opponent’s control of objects to be so powerful; now, he was not holding back anymore and suddenly raised his aura to its peak, like a War God wielding a sword.

“Sword technique, Bright Moon, Rising!” Li Qianfeng unleashed his strongest move, intending to crush Li Hao with one blow!

A terrible Sword Intent gathered in his palm, the sharp Sword Qi extending outwards, causing everyone around to change color, feeling as if their throats were being slit.

“It’s the Li family’s Endless Sea Sword Skill!”

“To think he has understood it up to the Third Layer, reaching such a level at such a young age?”

“Such a high talent in swordsmanship, this sword is hard to receive for anyone less than a Grandmaster!”

Everyone was in shock, their gazes solemn.

Ren Qianqian stood outside the open ground holding the Sword Box with a gleam in her eyes; that sword felt so familiar!

But… it seemed quite different from what she saw that day.

Much more rudimentary.

As Li Hao saw the sword technique utilized by his opponent, his eyes were cold and indifferent. A mere perfect level, indeed admirable, but… still not enough!

He slowly lifted the chopstick in his hand.

In an instant, a dazzling light burst forth from his fingertips.

Endless Sea.

Bright Moon Rising!

Suddenly, a bright moon lit up the entire courtyard.

And it also illuminated a myriad of eyes!

Even in broad daylight, the brilliance of that moon could not be overshadowed.

Jian Wudao had been regretting that such a sword prodigy like Li Qianfeng had not become his disciple, but now, his eyes suddenly widened.

The wrinkled lids at the edges of his old eyes seemed to stretch wide open with astonishment.

“`

Is that… the Genuine Realm?!!

Jian Wudao suddenly stood up, his composure lost, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at the young man.

Aside from him, his four disciples, including Bian Ruxue, all wore expressions of shock, incredulously watching the scene unfold.

As sword cultivators, how could they not perceive the terror and sheer brilliance of that strike!

The radiance from the ancient city wall once again illuminated heaven and earth.

Ren Qianqian’s palms, clutching the black sword box, tightened, whitening at the knuckles, her eyes filled with the glow and the silhouette of the youth.

“Hao!” Li Yuanzhao, too, was so excited that he clenched his fists tightly.

“What?”

Liu Yue Rong, upon seeing that bright moon, had her originally mocking gaze freeze, slightly lost for words.

Next to her, Jiang Haiping the War God, Bodhisattva Lin Wujing, and others were also shocked. They had not expected that, apart from his cultivation level, Li Hao’s swordsmanship would reach such an extent, truly a rare sword prodigy seen once in a thousand years!

At this moment, however, the one who felt it the most was Li Qianfeng. He was immensely shocked; reaching a perfect level was already incredibly remarkable, and his uncle at this age was not even as skilled.

But the youth before him…

Before he could ponder any further, that bright moon had already crushed down on him, all from a single chopstick.

Li Qianfeng’s eyes bulged with fury, and immense shame made him bellow out, his hair flying wildly as he roared, “Break!!”

Two identical sword techniques collided, but in the next moment, Li Qianfeng’s body was sent flying backward, crashing forcefully into a banquet table and spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

His richly ornate brocade garments were now riddled with tatters and tears, a mere brief encounter yet already so scarred and damaged.

And this was because Li Hao had only used a single chopstick — had he used a sword, it wouldn’t just be superficial cuts but blood sprayed all over!

Li Qianfeng climbed up from the ground, his gaze furiously shifting toward Li Hao, eyes filled with shock.

Even though his own swordsmanship was not on the same level as his opponent’s, the disparity in their weapons was vast, yet his sword had not managed to break Li Hao’s chopstick!

He could feel that in that moment of clashing, the force of object control wrapped around the opponent’s chopstick had steered his sword off course, and there hadn’t been a true clash.

He had sparred with others of the Fifteen Li Realm using the same method, defeating them, but he did not expect to face the same situation himself.

This could only be achieved by a complete overpowering of object control forces!

But he had practiced one of the most top-notch Object Control Qi Circulation Skills!

To surpass him, it would have to be the royal family’s “Nine Heavens Ascension Skill”!

Yet even then, the difference shouldn’t be this vast!

Under Li Qianfeng’s watch, Li Hao was calmly approaching.

Li Qianfeng’s pupils shrank; his heart filled with grief and humiliation. He had thought to suppress Li Hao with his own power, but instead, he found himself pressured to this extent.

He had been cultivating for four more years!

His eyes nearly bursting with fury, he restrained the murderous intent showing on his face, but inside, he was seething:

Die!!

Suddenly, the power within him gathered in his chest and violently unleashed the force imparted to him by his master.

A humming sound, like the evening drum and the morning bell, seemed to herald a rampaging force, buzzing through his mind.

“`

Immediately afterward, a terrifying power surged from his chest into his limbs and bones, reaching the pinnacle of his qi and blood, and his strength exploded!

At the same time, the major meridians within his body that had not been opened began to break through one by one at this moment, as the raging power poured into these meridians. Although it was only temporary, it filled all of them up.

In just an instant, Li Qianfeng’s meridians in his body increased from 58 to 82!

The meridian tempering skill of the Li Family was opened to 54 meridians, the top-tier meridian tempering skill passed down to him by Mount Wuliang’s Buddhist master was 58 meridians, and the first meridian tempering technique of the royal family was 62 meridians.

Under the impact of this force, his major meridians were forcibly opened to 82 meridians!

That was a full 20 more than the royal family’s meridian tempering method.

This increase in meridian power gave him a sensation of free flow throughout his body, and at the same time, there seemed to be a low chant of Buddha’s teachings in his mind as his soul power also surged, and his mind became clearer than ever before, with his divine soul’s power expanding rapidly!

It grew from the original twenty li all the way to thirty li!

Even the royal family would pale in comparison.

With the enhancement of his divine soul’s power, the power to manipulate objects followed suit.

Li Qianfeng felt the power within his entire body increasing rapidly, feeling as if he could pluck stars and seize moons with his hands!

His eyes were fierce as he rose from the ground, facing the youth. He then suddenly put his movement technique to use, his figure like a streak of light, the power to manipulate objects bolstering him, he rushed forward almost as if teleporting.

He wouldn’t give his opponent a chance to react, nor would he allow others the chance to intervene. He intended to disable Li Hao with a single sword strike!

The surging aura of Li Qianfeng naturally attracted the attention of countless onlookers who were all shocked, not knowing what cultivation technique this was.

Li Qingzheng’s face changed slightly, ready to take action, but suddenly, Li Hao’s figure, which was moving with large strides, accelerated fiercely.

Not running away, but charging towards Li Qianfeng!

The two figures intersected almost instantly, moving so quickly that below the Fifteen Li Realm, they could barely be seen, just a gray afterimage!

Li Qianfeng slashed fiercely at Li Hao, but in the next moment, he felt a tiger’s fierce momentum coming from Li Hao, causing his pupils to shrink with shock in his eyes.

His sword struck at the chopsticks, but they slipped away.

The chopsticks stabbed straight towards his eye socket.

Li Qianfeng’s other hand swung out hastily, using the Buddhist palm skill which was a form of fist and kick technique that could enhance weapon blocking as well.

But the arm that was meant to be sealed was grabbed by Li Hao at an even faster speed, catching hold of his palm.

As if grabbing a soft sponge.

98 meridians, plus the power of circulating qi 369 times, and the instant double explosion of power from the Yin and Yang Dual Pulse, led to his palm being directly crushed, the bones and flesh mangled together.

And before Li Qianfeng could scream, Li Hao’s chopstick had already plunged in, piercing into his eyeball.

With a loud bang.

A sudden shock wave spread out.

But simultaneously, an even more vast power enveloped down, protecting Li Hao.

A white figure swept by, it was the Buddhist Bodhisattva. He appeared in front of both Li Hao and Li Qianfeng, separating the two on the spot and carrying Li Qianfeng out to a dozen meters away.

“Such a ruthless move!”

Lin Wujing’s gaze was slightly cold as he glanced at Li Hao, then immediately looked down at Li Qianfeng whose eyeball had been pierced.
