Li Chen attacked with the ancient halberd, causing Wu Zong to retreat. He never expected Li Chen to be so strong.

In fact, it wasn't because Li Chen was that strong, but because the ancient halberd had been modified by Li Chen and had a lot of new mystical seals added to it. That was why this Martial Ancestor felt that Li Chen was extremely powerful, as if every strike of his contained the power of thunder!

”There's some movement over there. It should be over soon!”

Li Chen's heart tightened when he saw the black phoenix behind the Martial Ancestor. Suddenly, the black phoenix flew up and twisted its slender fingers towards the neck of the Martial Ancestor!

With a ”kacha” sound, Wu Zong's eyes widened and he no longer made a sound.

Li Chen shook his head. He already knew that the black phoenix was powerful, but he did not expect that a low level Martial Ancestor would not even have the strength to fight back before the black phoenix.

Unfortunately, although it was a pity, Li Chen still followed his strange footsteps and quickly disappeared into the night.

A few human figures quickly landed on the spot where Li Chen was standing. They looked at the three corpses on the ground and were immediately shocked!

”Dragon's Twenty-third Elder …” ”This …”

”Who did it?”

The three of them were all elders of the Ji Clan who were leading this experiential learning. They didn't expect an elder and two young disciples with good cultivation aptitude to be in the clan so suddenly. They were immediately shocked.

”What about Long San?”

”Over here!” ”What is this?”

One of them looked at the puddle of black water with a shocked expression. Within the black water, he could faintly see a jade pendant that was half-corroded.

”This is Long San's!” An old man used a branch to stir the thick water to make a conclusion. The other two immediately felt their hearts sink.

”What kind of person is this? Who dares to set his sights on our Ji Clan!”

”The person who has come is not friendly! His current strength was extremely powerful! Look! ” That person pointed at the wound on Thirteenth Elder's neck and said, ”He broke Thirteenth Elder's neck in one go. His current strength is definitely above both of us!”

”Go back!” Tell everyone to be careful when you go out! It seems like this was done on purpose to our Ji Clan, to let the clan's disciples leave their homes in the future! You must not let anyone find any loopholes! ”

One of the elders decisively ordered.

Li Chen naturally did not know what had happened to the Ji Clan.

At this time, Li Chen had already arrived at the Li family encampment. This place wasn't far from the Ji family's residence, and it wasn't close at all. Li Chen's appearance caused the disciple in charge of guarding to be shocked.

”Li Chen?” ”You're not dead?”

That member of the family was also one of the inner court disciples and was very surprised to see Li Chen.

”I'm not dead!” Li Chen rubbed his nose. ”That's right, how long have I been gone for?”

The juniors of the family were amazed, ”You've already disappeared for almost a month, even the Patriarch is at a disadvantage. You definitely won't be able to survive this!”

”Almost a month?” Li Chen muttered, ”Does that mean the sects that are here to select disciples will be here soon?”

”That's right! Originally, everyone would have left the Sky Zong Mountains in three days. ” Although Li Chen entered the inner chamber later than him, his strength was exceptionally shocking. They were all secretly guessing Li Chen's strength, and some of them secretly compared him to Li Fanyin; many people felt that Li Chen's strength was probably stronger than Li Fanyin's. Thus, Li Chen did not know, but there were already many disciples who secretly admired Li Chen.

”Who's talking outside?”

The sound of voices alerted Li Huaiyuan, who was resting.

The disciple looked at Li Chen and Li Chen walked towards the tent.

”It's you?” ”Li Chen!” Li Huayuan got off the bed excitedly and walked around Li Chen a few times. ”It's great that you're fine!” ”I thought …”

When he saw Li Huayuan again, Li Huayuan was more excited than he had imagined. He asked Li Chen where he had been and why he had not contacted his family.

Li Chen tried his best to avoid the attack. He only said that he was chased by the people from the Ji Clan. In the end, he was injured and hid in a cave to recuperate.

Li Huayuan did not think too much about it. His gaze had already turned cold when he heard that Li Chen was being hunted.

Although no one wished for other families to have talents that could surpass them, this kind of thing that could destroy their hopes was simply unbearable.

He patted Li Chen's shoulder and said, ”I will take care of this matter.”

On one hand, he wanted to see how far Li Huayuan would go for him. On the other hand, Li Chen did not want anyone to know about his strength, especially the Black Phoenix, which was his trump card.

The next day, the news of Li Chen's return had already reached the ears of the Li family members.
