Chapter 147: Blood Suppression

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

When Li Xianyu was eating, he filled himself up with the basic information of the five immortal families in Northeast China, as well as the information regarding the family leaders and important figures. As a recognized legal force, the five different families in the northeast of China which formed the Demons’ Alliance, naturally, had their roots. The pictures in the background were very interesting. The figures were divided into one inch photos and prototype photos.

The Liu family’s leader was Liu Tong, who was 70 years old. The genes of the ancient demons had extended the life of the demon descendants. His original form was a python that was more than 50 meters long. He was not a python, but snakes had more cell divisions than humans. If they lived long enough, they could grow until they were very long.

Liu Tong probed, “My descendant can’t match others in battle. He deserved to die. However, thinking about it, I don’t think he made any big mistakes. Mr. Li, don’t you owe me an explanation?”

In his eyes, it was no fault of him to suck the essence of a human being.

Li Xianyu didn’t answer as his eyes swept around the crowd, ignoring the view of the Liu family leader. He looked at Huang Xiaoming and said with a smile, “Didn’t you always shout for your ancestors to teach me a lesson? Now, your old ancestor is here. Why don’t we do this? I’ll call for my old ancestor to come. Let’s fight in terms of old ancestors, not fathers.”

The Huang family leader was speechless.

Everyone was shocked, and couldn’t help but think of the invincible war spirit. Liu Tong’s cold gaze suddenly restrained itself.

Huang Xiaoming said, “I’m not scared of you…” As soon as he finished speaking, he was knocked on the skull by his old ancestor.

“Mr. Li, don’t stoop to the same level as this little beast,” said the Huang family leader, who waved his hand frantically.

Huang Xiaoming shrunk his head and dared not speak. His eyes were confused, yet he appeared indignant.

“Minister Wu, we’re not here to drink,” said the small eyed, sharp mouthed leader of the Hui family.

Since he stepped into the room, he kept to himself as he continued to drink one mouthful at a time, which was unbecoming of a host. He did not possess the calm and concentration that a regional leader should have.

Everyone privately called him “Useless Minister.” He was not pragmatic and drank excessively all day. In front of the Wu family and the demon alliance, he would compromise if he could. He seemed to be very afraid of trouble. As long as they didn’t cross the line, he did not interfere in their affairs. Therefore, in recent years, the position of Fengtian branch was undoubtedly the lowest in the tripartite relationship.

The employees of the Fengtian branch hated the Minister to the core. They had submitted letters of complaint to the headquarters many times, suggesting that the headquarters should appoint a new minister who could handle affairs properly. However, the headquarters, which had always been wise, decisive and full of vitality, had acted decadently in this matter and ignored it. Therefore, it was speculated that Minister Wu and the senior management of the headquarters must have had private dirty transactions. However, a decadent person who had had his solar plexus crippled and expelled from his family would not be qualified to engage in these transactions, whether from appearance or potential.

The Wu family and the Demons’ Alliance were happy to see this phenomenon. Although they had their fair share of laughs at the minister in private, it was obviously better for an incompetent person to be in charge of the Fengtian branch, rather than a strong and capable person.

“I have something to say as well, but your business is more important. You guys can talk about it first.” Wu Sanjin, as always, had no backbone. “Oh, by the way, where is the Bai family leader?”

The people from the Bai family, hearing these words, wept in reply, “Master has been eaten up.”

The color in Minister Wu’s face drained as he replied, “Even the family leader has been eaten up? Audacious. Someone dares to eat endangered species. Don’t cry. Baoze will seek justice for you.”

The Bai family was the weakest among the five families. Its talent was withered as the number of people in the family decreased. Most of them were eaten up, to the point where they were now being classified as endangered species. However, what was with the family leader being eaten up?

The head of the Hu family, who looked overcast and soft, said lightly, “We can rest assured given that Minister Wu has said this. In fact, we are here just for this matter. You must know that recently, a serial killer has appeared in the northeast. This figure has hurt many of our people by marking his territory unreasonably. The Bai family leader was killed by his surprise attack. When we found his body, there was only a suit of armor left.”

“Ah? Is this the case? I didn’t know.” Minister Wu took out his cell phone and made a phone call. “Hello/ Xiao Lan, did something happen in Northeast China recently? I heard that there was a murderer and he ate the Bai family leader. How can I not know about this… Oh, the information was put on my desk yesterday? Sigh, you have to tell me about this. How can I know if you don’t tell me? I was drinking yesterday…”

Everyone stared at him, frustrated, as the corners of their mouths twitched slightly.

Li Xianyu thought to himself, Fuck, how did this kind of person make it to the branch head position? Was Baoze’s HR department blind… Oh, this blame can’t be pinned on the HR department. It was said that the boss of Baoze ordered for this to happen? Was the big boss blind?

“How about his power level… What? S-level? Emmmm, okay. I see.” Minister Wu hung up the phone and asked, “The guy’s background is known. He ran out from the Greater Khingan Range. Because there was a serious massacre and reports of humans being eaten in the village, the company sent the God of Food to investigate it. It’s a kind of bear, and it’s powerful. After all, the God of Food didn’t kill it. He escaped.”

“You know, we don’t have an S-level master in Fengtian. I don’t think anyone is that guy’s match. Also, it didn’t eat people. According to the company’s regulations, Baoze should not strike out at him.”

Look at your cowardice… thought everyone in the room.

The head of the Hu family said in a deep voice, “Minister Wu, it is a wanted being. It’s up to Baoze to catch the wanted fugitive. Besides, the elections for the Alliance is coming soon. Who knows if it’s coming for us. We are in an unstable position now. If Baoze doesn’t care and we fight at will, I’m not sure whether it will affect ordinary people.” This was a passive-aggressive threat.

The S-level bracket was also divided into the strong and the weak. Baoze’s S-level masters were able to safely rank in the top 30. Those who did not “pay-to-win”, those poor players who did not have S-level skills… their equipment and overall strength were certainly not comparable to Baoze’s S-level masters, but it wouldn’t be difficult for them to rank in the top 40.

After the Bai family leader was killed, other family leaders also feared for their lives unless they hide in their base camp all the time. If they were ambushed, there was a high chance of death.

The Demons Alliance was determined to kill an S-level, and that was achievable. However, the other side was a stranger, akin to a monk without a temple. If they wanted to find him, they needed the assistance of official organizations.

Minister Wu was conflicted. “I have the determination, but no power to encircle and suppress an S-level expert. After all, the branch does not have that level of combat power. I have to ask the headquarters for advice on such a big matter.”

The head of the Liu family took a look at Li Xianyu and gazed at him coldly. “Who says the branch has no such combat power? Minister Wu, aren’t you sitting next to him? It’s not hard if the Unparalleled War Spirit can be mobilised.”

“This, this…” Minister Wu looked at Li Xianyu and saw that he didn’t say a word. He was immediately caught in the middle. He couldn’t order him around.

“The Demons’ Alliance and Baoze have an agreement. We have been cooperating for so many years in peace. Does Minister Wu want to break this harmonious relationship personally?”

“We can understand Minister Wu’s difficulties, but in the face of such enemies, the Demons’ Alliance has to take it seriously. If it causes casualties to ordinary people, you have to take the blame from headquarters.”

“It’s said that after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, it was forbidden for spirits to appear. However, in recent years, there have been more and more wild animals awakening. This is becoming more and more difficult to control. There are many that have experienced this. There are also big adversaries outside the Demons’ Alliance. We can’t self sacrifice talents, right?”

All of their words were bizarre and full of hidden meanings which hinted at threats. Minister Wu was like a little mouse that had been forced into a corner. Getting desperate, he pretended to be dead. Minister Wu selectively lost his hearing and kept to himself as he continued drinking.

If this was the God of Apes, he would have decisively wiped out all the guys in the room. The old men in the Northeast should have been very heroic and able to stand up for themselves, but Minister Wu’s performance disappointed Li Xianyu. No wonder the employees complained about him. He thought that the local old men must have had a lot of suppressed grievances as well.

Strictly speaking, Baoze did not have the obligation to help the Demons’ Alliance. They were just “good friends” on the surface. They were actually competitors in the Northeast demon descendants community. They ran into trouble, yet shamelessly came to ask Baoze for help. Instead of being courteous and sincere in asking for help, they dared to threaten Baoze. This was utterly unreasonable.

However, after seeing Wu Sanjin’s performance, Li Xianyu knew what was fuelling their audacity.

It was an old saying: kind people were always being bullied.

“Everybody!” Li Xianyu said, “If you need help, you can write an application. Minister Wu will deliver it to the headquarters for you. But before we do, let’s talk about the second thing. ”

He stepped on Minister Wu’s foot under the table, but Old Wu was determined to shirk responsibility as he continued to drink while ignoring everyone.

Li Xianyu wanted to drown him, just like how Daji drowned King Zhou alive in the forest of wine and meat. He sighed helplessly and looked at the beasts around the room. “From the 10th to the 20th, according to the data collected by Baoze in these ten days, it was confirmed that there were almost 2,000 people that were killed by demon descendants in the three eastern provinces. This does not include the cases that were not reported, as well as missing people who reported the case but have not been found.”

“What do you want?” He suddenly slammed his hand on the table, and the meeting table was smashed to pieces by him. Li Xianyu’s voice was like a thunderous roar. “Do you want to rebel?”

The beasts’ expressions were angry, cold, or disdainful.

“Don’t mention any privileges to me. I don’t recognize them.” Li Xianyu said calmly, “The population of Liaoning is more than 40 million, the population of the three eastern provinces is nearly 200 million. 2,000 people may seem like a drop of water in the ocean that will not cause public opinion and turbulence. Maybe, in your eyes, it’s not too much. It’s within your control. But, I don’t agree with your rules. I only know that you are killing my compatriots everyday in order to strengthen yourselves while fighting for territory and the head of the alliance. You are laying the way for your ambition with the bones of my compatriots. I’m sorry, I don’t recognize your hidden and shallow rules.”

“Arrogance!”

“You think you can speak for the entire Baoze?”

“Don’t think you can be arrogant just because you are a Gokudo Path Inheritor.”

“Only human beings are allowed to kill our compatriots, yet we are not allowed to eat people?”

The owners didn’t speak, but their children and their subordinates were furious as they spoke out.

“Don’t get agitated, don’t get agitated. Let him talk if he wants to. He is a Gokudo Path Inheritor, we all have to show some respect.”

“It doesn’t hurt for him to say a word, and I think what he said is quite reasonable. Of course, you don’t need to care about my stand,” Minister Wu cut in peacefully.

“Liu Tong, didn’t you ask me what Liu Kun did wrong? He killed a human. That was his biggest mistake. It’s an unforgivable sin in my eyes. He deserved to die.”

Liu Tong’s cold gaze intensified.

“It’s your own business if you are in trouble. If you can’t handle it yourself, there’s no need for the Demons’ Alliance to exist. You killed my countrymen and now, you ask us to help you eradicate the enemy. You take and take. Do you treat humans as weak pushovers? You want my great-grandmother to help you fight? Pfft, you guys are not worthy.”

“I know it’s some person’s weakness and incompetence that fuels your spirit, blinds your mind, and makes you think that humans don’t dare to touch you. NO! Wrong. I’ll wake you up today. You are not what you are today based on your own abilities, but because human beings have accommodated you. We’ve marked a piece of land and raised you here, letting the animals manage the animals. That’s all. Don’t be so arrogant as to be able to compete with human beings, let alone think that Baoze doesn’t dare to touch you.”

“How does the Demons’ Alliance compare with the Ancient Gods Clan? It’s not that the Ancient Gods Clan didn’t throw all their chips out too. You know more about what happened in those days than I do. As a result, it wasn’t difficult for Baoze to block the news and influence public opinion. Nothing happened. Do you think you can make more trouble than the Ancient Gods Clan? You think you’re stronger than them? The Ancient Gods Clan is still a human force. If you dare to go all out, it is not only Baoze, but also other forces, that will crush you.”

“I can’t represent Baoze’s position, but I can represent the position of the Li family,” Li Xianyu continued, “Today, I, Li Xianyu, leave my words here. I will stay in the Northeast until the new alliance leader is elected. During this period, as long as Baoze finds out that someone died in an animal’s hand, we will retaliate. If one dies, I will kill one animal. If two dies, I will kill a pair. If you don’t like it, continue to make trouble. There are 1.4 billion people in Northeast China. How many of you are there? We will see who lasts the distance.”

“Go ahead and make trouble. Cross Baoze’s line, and we will see who’s the unlucky party. I even fought with the God of War. The Demonic Priest’s descendant was defeated by me also. Tell me, I’m afraid of you rats?”

“Unbridled!” The four heads of the family shouted in unison. In a flash, the demonic airs flooded every corner of the conference room.

Old Comrade Wu spat out a mouthful of wine, as his face changed greatly. “No, no, no. Let’s talk it out amicably. Harmony breeds prosperity. Harmony breeds prosperity.”

Li Xianyu’s breath was smothering as the sweet smell in his throat intensified. The pressure of the four masters together affected him badly.

He clenched his teeth, rounded his mouth and swallowed his blood. His eyes were bloodshot. After all, Li Xianyu’s foundation was shallow and insufficient. If he didn’t use his “cheat code”, he was at best, a better junior, on the same level with Liu Kongcao.

Were they trying to gather the qi in their blood to suppress me?

He slowly stood up. His shoulders seemed as if he was carrying a mountain. He gritted his teeth and straightened his spine inch by inch, as if he was carrying the backbone of 200 million people in the northeast, as well as the broken backbone of Fengtian branch.

Li Xianyu raised his left arm and took off the gloves.

“Rats!” With the roar of his voice, his left arm suddenly swelled, breaking his sleeve. Underneath the dark and disgusting skin, scarlet blood vessels started to protrude out. It seemed to be the most evil thing in the world, left by the devil himself.

In a flash, a great pressure descended from the sky.

Everyone seemed like they had entered hell directly. Shadows of scales suddenly appeared in front of Liu Tong’s face. His body was like ripples of water, taking a while before stabilising. His original form was almost forced out. Fortunately, he was stable in his profound cultivation.

The same was true for the other three owners, who were almost forced back into their original forms. However, the other animals didn’t have this ability. In the moment when Li Xianyu showed his arm, they were forced back into their original form.

Huang Xiaoming’s legs kicked out, his whole body twitched and his mouth froze.

“Squeak!”

“Sizzle!”

Ten-meter-long snakes crashed into each other wildly; the mice, who were bigger than cats, panicked. The weasels jumped up and down; the yellow foxes crouched on the ground, while the hedgehogs curled up into a ball. If ordinary people were to see this scene, they would be scared to death.

The conference room was large, but it looked cramped as well. This mess had been formed in an instant.

These animals sensed the coming of the earthquake and were eager to escape. However, when Li Xianyu stopped at the door, they dared not pass. They panicked as they bumped into each other. The scene continued to spiral out of control.

It was Slime’s passive skill: blood suppression!

It should have been known that initially, even the senior employees such as Thunderbolt Battle Lady and You Mingyu went weak in the legs as they wanted to escape from it. This was when Slime was at its weakest. Li Xianyu and Xia Xiaoxue were unable to move, and was subjected to its mercy.
