No one spoke.
The clan members understood that stepping forward to speak under such circumstances would undoubtedly offend Li Zhuo.
Although many people looked down on Li Yan’s actions, asking them to offend Li Zhuo for Li Xiaoyao, who had nothing to do with them, was not worth it.
“Li Xiaoyao was at the edge of a breakthrough when he came out from the mirrored training field. Li Yan took advantage of this and launched a sneak attack but was then stopped by Li Pengcheng. Li Pengcheng was no match for Li Yan and was severely injured. I couldn’t stand by and do nothing, so I intervened,” said Li Qinglong, who was not afraid of Li Zhuo as others were.
As one of the prominent young members of the Li Family, Li Qinglong’s future achievements were boundless, and even the Ancestral Elders didn’t dare to secretly hinder him.
“Li Qinglong, do you know what you’re saying?” Li Zhuo’s face darkened, and there was an undeniable threat in his voice.
Li Qinglong met his gaze and said, “I know exactly what I’m saying. Li Yan, as a member of the Ancient Li Family Clan, disregarded his status and launched a sneak attack on Li Xiaoyao during his breakthrough. He was then taught a lesson by the newly advanced Li Xiaoyao. He got what he deserved.”
...
“Are you really a member of the Ancient Li Family?” Li Zhuo glared at him furiously.
“Enough,” Li Jingjiu waved his hand and said, “Qinglong has made the course of events very clear. In this matter, Li Yan was at fault first. Although Li Xiaoyao’s actions were somewhat excessive, under those circumstances, his behavior can also be understood. Let’s put an end to this matter here.”
After speaking, Li Jingjiu turned to Li Xiaoyao and asked, “Are you satisfied with this resolution?”
Li Xiaoyao understood that the five Ancestral Elders were giving him a way out, and he wasn’t ungrateful, so he nodded and said, “No objections.”
Li Zhuo was so angry that his breathing became erratic; if Li Jingjiu hadn’t been there, he would have killed Li Xiaoyao on the spot.
Li Xiaoyao raised his hand and gently summoned the Seven Star Ancient Sword from Li Yan’s shoulder, placing it into his Storage Ring.
Li Yan also fell from the stone wall and landed on the ground with a thud.
Li Zhuo, with a somber face, went up to him, lifted him up, picked up the two severed arms, and left the Secret Realm with him, shrouded in a sinister aura.
The clan members felt as though it was all a bit surreal. Was the matter really settled just like that?
“Those who need to rest, rest. Everyone, disperse,” Li Jingjiu said indifferently. Seeing that the incident had concluded and there was no more spectacle to witness, the clan members dispersed.
Li Xiaoyao, carrying the severely injured Li Pengcheng, passed by Li Jingjiu and said, “Thank you, Elder Jingjiu, for upholding justice today.”
“The fault was not yours today, and no one can hold it against you.” Li Jingjiu took a jade bottle from his Storage Ring and said, “This is a healing medicine; take it and give it to him.”
Li Xiaoyao nodded in acknowledgment, not refusing his kindness.
Having dealt with this somewhat troublesome matter, Li Jingjiu turned and left the Secret Realm.
“I’ll remember this favor,” Li Xiaoyao said to Li Qinglong.
Li Qinglong said nonchalantly, “It’s not a favor; I just can’t stand the despicable actions of people like Li Yan.”
Li Xiaoyao looked at him, said nothing more, and quickly left the Secret Realm with Li Pengcheng in his arms.
No sooner had he left than a couple approached and asked, “How did you get involved with him?”
Li Qinglong smiled and replied, “Don’t you think he’s an interesting person?”
“Interesting?” The man chuckled. “Indeed, he is somewhat intriguing. But his cultivation level is also very strong. In this clan competition, one of us three might be eliminated.”
Li Qinglong’s brows arched playfully, “That definitely won’t be me.”
“Don’t be too confident; while I admit that in terms of cultivation level I’m not your equal, when it comes to actual combat ability, you are not my match.”
…
Back in his room, Li Xiaoyao casually opened the jade bottle, revealing a pill medicine with a rich fragrance, lying in the palm of his hand.
“`
“This is…” Li Xiaoyao stared at the pill medicine for a long time, determining from the spiritual energy it emitted that it was a third-grade pill medicine.
The pill’s grade wasn’t low, the five ancestral elders really were willing to spend a fortune.
After feeding Li Pengcheng the pill, Li Xiaoyao took out a vermilion fruit and fed it to him as well.
Having done this, Li Xiaoyao then laid him on the bed.
Li Pengcheng’s injuries were severe, and even with the elixirs, he would need several days to recover.
However, there was no problem with him getting better before the clan competition.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was already the sixth day since arriving at the Ancient Li Family Clan.
Li Pengcheng’s injuries had already fully healed on the third day, and regarding the events of that day, he hadn’t brought it up spontaneously, and neither had Li Xiaoyao.
But he did know what happened after he lost consciousness that day; he knew that Li Yan’s arms had been severed by Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao had only gone to the secret realm once and had since been staying in his room, not eating or drinking, for six days straight.
Now that the system had a mirror training ground, Li Xiaoyao didn’t need to waste time queuing up or appear disheveled in front of others.
Six continuous days of uninterrupted cultivation had brought obvious benefits and progress.
The current Li Xiaoyao, while not yet perfect, had reached a rather terrifying level in combat awareness and crisis perception.
“Hoo~”
Li Xiaoyao opened his eyes from his cultivation and exhaled a breath of foul air.
If nothing unexpected happened, first place in the clan competition was basically his.
Lately, Li Xiaoyao had been thinking about something. He could easily earn a spot to enter the secret realm, but for Li Pengcheng, it was very difficult.
Li Pengcheng’s overall strength could rank him within the top fifteen of the strong competitors list.
That was already quite formidable, but to seize one of the top three places, he clearly wasn’t qualified enough.
After much thought, Li Xiaoyao couldn’t come up with any good ideas, so he simply stopped thinking about it. After all, such matters ultimately depended on strength.
Stepping out of the room, Li Xiaoyao leaned against a large tree in the courtyard, taking a brief rest to enjoy this rare moment of leisure.
What Li Xiaoyao didn’t know was that throughout these six days of his disappearance, rumors about him had been spreading all over the Li Family.
The events that unfolded in the secret realm that day had almost become known to the entire Li Family Clan. Many wished to size up Li Xiaoyao, and just as many wanted to challenge him. But since that day, Li Xiaoyao had vanished, holed up in his room, never taking a single step outside.
“That guy has been hiding in his room for six days now, I bet he’s definitely scared.”
“What a coward, daring to act but not to own up, huh!”
Many clan members had only heard about the incident, but didn’t know the details, and with some deliberately slandering Li Xiaoyao, many didn’t recognize the despicable side of Li Yan’s sneak attack.
Li Pengcheng had been challenged several times, but he always declined these challenges; not because he was afraid, but because he didn’t want to waste unnecessary energy before the clan competition.
As the sky gradually darkened, Li Pengcheng walked out of the mirror training ground, only to be blocked by a figure in his path.
Seeing clearly the man who blocked his way, Li Pengcheng’s eyes immediately widened: “Li Yan!”
