Barrier of Light

Push open the wooden door of the ancestral hall.

Li Qingsui stood at the door of the Zongtang conference room. She watched the figures stand up one after another. Under the weak candlelight, they were as tall as mountains. These people stood too high, and the expressions on their faces were very gloomy. Not sure.

The second elder, Li Changzhi, walked out slowly.

He was holding a thin piece of yellow paper with not much written on it.

This is a joint letter of the Presbyterian Church stripping off the position of acting head of the family.

Li Changzhi read slowly.

"In the year 639 of the New Calendar, the Li family announced that due to the special circumstances, the acting head of the family, Li Qingsui, would be stripped of his power..."

The rest, every word is unimportant.

Li Qingsui raised her head and looked at the old man with a large candlelight in front of her. For some reason, her mood did not change at all when she heard the "sentence" given to her in the Li clan hall.

There was peace.

Perhaps it was because... before she entered the clan hall, she had expected to encounter such a situation.

This is indeed a war.

But not long.

Li Qingsui looked back at the room where Uncle Gao walked into.

The room was dead silent.

Less than a hundred meters apart.

She knew very well how powerful Uncle Gao's mental power was. Even if it was thousands of meters away, let alone a hundred meters away, Uncle Gao could clearly hear every sound coming from here.

Until the sentence has been read out.

There was still no movement in that room.

Li Qingsui didn't even look at the second elder who read out the joint letter. She just looked at the room. After all the sounds stopped, she asked softly: "Is it over?"

The second elder also looked at the house in the distance.

"No need to look any further, Gao Tian won't come out...at least, not during this period of time."

He smiled and said, "So, it's over."

Li Changzhi stretched out his palm to grab Li Qingsui who was close at hand.

next moment.

Li Qingsui raised his head.

"boom!"

A ball of fireworks exploded at the entrance of the ancestral hall!

Li Qingsui raised the long dark umbrella he carried with him, and dozens of bright and blazing flames burst out from the tip of the umbrella. For an instant, the entire dark wooden pavilion of the Zongtang was illuminated like daylight!

Flame Demon Umbrella!

This is the top A-level sealed item that Li Qihu left to his daughter!

Every strike has unparalleled destructive power!

The only flaw is that it requires a large amount of "extraordinary essence" to be consumed, and with Li Qingsui's current strength, he does not have any extraordinary essence to replenish it.

Therefore... after the flame magic umbrella is fully charged, no matter how terrifyingly powerful it is, it can only explode once or twice!

But...that's enough!

The second elder who stretched out his palms withstood all the bombardments of the "blazing flames" at extremely close range. He roared and backed away. His eyebrows were instantly ignited by the flames, and his whole person was submerged in the sea of ​​fire——

The entire Zongtang cabinet where the impeachment meeting was held was filled with the afterglow of the blazing flames!

Li Qingsui turned around quickly.

She did not hesitate to flee away from the ancestral hall, and the next moment... a huge white-robed figure rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire. Li Changzhi, whose body was burning with flames, stretched out his two big hands and grabbed Li Qingsui. go!

And before he had time to expand his territory, bright fireworks bloomed in front of him again!

"Rumble--"

This time, Li Qingsui poured out all the essence accumulated in the umbrella without reservation.

The blazing flames spurted out, dyeing the night sky of the entire Li clan hall red!

Li Changzhi was thrown upside down and slammed back into the ancient house of the ancestral hall.

As for Li Qingsui, her thin body was hit by a strong recoil, and the push of the umbrella handle pushed her tens of meters away. She was like a doll, rubbing blood marks on the ground, but her expression was still cold, and she held her hands on the ground. , like a little cheetah, opening the car door, she knew she didn't have much time. If Uncle Gao was trapped... then it would prove that these guys from the Presbyterian Church were really planning to attack her.

Never get caught by them.

escape!

Li Qingsui stepped on the accelerator, and the front door of the Li clan's ancestral hall turned into a sea of ​​fire. Hundreds of degrees of high temperature evaporated the heat, making everything look like hell. Amidst the violent roar of the oil tank, the black car parked in front of the ancestral hall was like a It sped out like a phantom.

Li Changqi, who rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire for the second time, could only see the shadow of the black car disappearing into the horizon.

…

…

The roar of the flames was far behind.

The shriveled black umbrella was placed in the passenger seat, with billowing heat still emanating from the tip. It was hard to imagine that this black umbrella, which was usually used to keep out wind and rain, could be an extremely powerful weapon. .

Most of Li's sealed objects are registered.

But...there are always exceptions.

This flame magic umbrella is an exception.

In terms of the amount of extraordinary source matter that can be stored in the umbrella body, even if it is fully charged, it can only fire out a total of two bombardments... It may seem a bit useless, but for those extraordinary people who have a huge amount of their own source matter, this weapon The upper limit of the Fire Umbrella can be raised almost infinitely.

The upper limit of the explosion of this fire umbrella depends on...how much extraordinary source of energy the holder possesses.

Li Qingsui looked calm, but her pretty face looked a little pale.

Hold an umbrella.

Fire.

It all happened too fast... The decisions she made and the actions she took seemed to be a habit engraved in her bones. It wasn't until she started "escape" that she realized what she had just done.

In the rearview mirror, I could only see the quiet trees receding.

The second half of the night in Nagano was very peaceful.

If I remember correctly... I used the two waves of bombardment from the Flame Demon Umbrella to burn the entire Li clan hall into a sea of ​​flames.

Thinking back to the scene just now.

Scenes of memories flow, regress, and freeze.

I...just burned down the Li clan hall?

Li Qingsui narrowed his eyes slightly.

She let out a long breath.

That tense face gradually softened.

Then, Li Qingsui couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Ah……"

The feeling of burning down the clan hall was surprisingly good!

The girl drove the Phantom, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and galloped wildly on the road. She opened one side of the car window, and the strong wind blew her hair. At this moment, the etiquette of the five families and the rules of the Li family were crushed and blown away. and left it behind the car.

She put one hand outside the car window, her thoughts clearer than ever.

During the period after her father's death, she was in an extremely closed predicament, running around and bumping into walls at every turn. Until today, when the two sides met and both parties made their stance known, all the anguish was finally released.

Obviously... his opponent has abandoned the bottom line.

Then, you don’t need to tie your hands and feet.

If this ancestral hall is burned, burn it!

To hell with Li's rules!

Li Qingsui stepped on the accelerator and sped towards the highway border north of Nagano. She was now going to Route 447... to pick up her sister.

…

…

Today, a huge cloud of ink poured in from the top of the temple.

This large piece of ink is suspended above the clouds on the top of the mountain, but they are not clouds.

Li Qingci had no intention of practicing.

She stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the distant sky with a worried expression... No matter how much water she watered, it was of no use. The few small white flowers in the flower bed were wilting, as if their vitality had been sucked away.

A sense of death filled the sky above the temple.

In this land, millions of black flowers grow all over the mountains and plains.

Every black flower is an illusion of black spots after the "collapse of order."

These flowers exude their own "breath" all the time.

Perhaps, it is just a small wisp of extraordinary source matter.

But, a little adds up to a lot!

Countless extraordinary sources of matter are floating in the void of the wonderful realm of Shenci Mountain. They cannot be seen or touched, but they actually exist... These sources of matter are flowing and accumulating in the void, and today It is because of "unknowable" reasons that the gathering started inexplicably.

So, there was such a big ball of ink.

Li Qingci tried to use the "Prayer Technique" to find the meaning of this gathering of extraordinary sources... However, this time the Prayer Technique refused to accept her feed.

But she saw that familiar dream again.

All was dark.

The earth shook and the sky shook.

It seemed as if the entire temple was about to collapse... There were countless figures.

as well as.

A bright golden light.

There was a "boom"!

There was a roar outside the boundary of Shenci Mountain, and a familiar phantom crashed into the wonderful boundary of Route 447. Li Qingci immediately sensed the spiritual aura of the driver.

It's Li Qingsui!

And...only Li Qingsui!

Uncle Gao isn't here?

She instantly realized... something terrible was happening outside.

She hurried down the mountain.

Far away, Li Qingsui's voice came: "Get in the car! I'll take you away!"

No need to say more.

Li Qingci had already roughly guessed what was happening outside.

Since Uncle Gao is not with Li Qingsui, he must have had an accident.

Those guys from the Presbyterian Church really dare to take action?

A few seconds later, the Phantom stopped suddenly. Li Qingsui opened the passenger door and said, "Sister! Let's leave the temple!"

However, Li Qingci did not leave.

She looked at the dark sky in the distance, did not get in the car, but said softly: "It's too late..."

That's too late?

Li Qingsui was slightly startled.

She followed the direction of her sister's gaze and looked into the distance.

The entrance to Route 447.

The fog was heavy.

And in the mist, powerful spiritual auras poured in one after another.

Li Qingsui's face looked a little ugly.

He was already moving very fast... but the guys from the Presbyterian Church were even faster. It was obvious that they expected where he would go immediately after leaving.

perhaps.

They have long wanted to take action against the "shrine".

Li Qingsui gritted his teeth and said, "You get in the car first...I'll try to see if I can break out..."

Li Qingci glanced at her stubborn sister and couldn't help but smile.

"useless."

"These guys have been waiting for this moment..."

She shook her head and murmured: "No wonder the Shenci Mountain is so abnormal today..."

Powerful auras gathered at the entrance of Shenci Mountain.

They sealed the entrance very tightly.

Route 447 is the only entrance to the shrine and the only exit.

Li Qingsui could feel the familiar atmosphere.

Now that I think about it... maybe the "conflict" in front of the clan hall was just a prelude to the other party's plan. If I escaped, it would be a good thing for those guys.

Because Nagano is too small.

He couldn't escape anywhere but to the shrine.

Russian qing.

When the huge piece of "ink" on the dome was suspended directly above the Shenci Mountain, Li's extraordinary person also came to the foot of the mountain.

The second elder's robe was burned to pieces before he had time to change it.

Only half of his snow-white eyebrows were withered.

At this moment, he looked very embarrassed.

But there was a smile in his eyes.

This is a triumphant smile.

"Miss Aoho."

Li Changzhi brushed his robes, spoke softly, and said slowly: "Burn down the ancestral hall and burn down the monuments. What you have done... can be regarded as a sinner of the clan."

Li Qingsui clutched the black umbrella.

This scene made Li Changzhi frown slightly.

He moved aside without leaving a trace... He was really shocked by the explosive power of the big umbrella earlier, and he almost fell into the hands of this junior.

If I do it for the third time, I'm afraid I will really do somersaults.

It's just that... the sealed objects in this world always require the consumption of source matter.

The two previous outbreaks in the Zongtang were terrifying enough. The power of this black umbrella should have been exhausted, right?

Just be a little careful and you should be fine.

"You...burned down the ancestral hall?"

After Li Qingci heard this, she was slightly startled and asked through a message.

"Um."

Li Qingsui gritted his teeth and said, "They set up a trap in the ancestral hall and imprisoned Uncle Gao... and they are planning to attack me."

After hearing the news.

Li Qingci's expression darkened.

She took a step forward and protected her sister.

"Elders, it has only been a few days since Uncle Quhu's funeral. Are you so eager to impeach the family leader? Are you planning to commit rebellion... What would the ancestors in the ancestral hall think if they knew about it?"

"joke!"

An elder stood next to Li Changzhi.

It was the elder Li Xuan who had his token confiscated and was able to enter the Shenci Mountain with the permission of others.

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "The one who conspired against us... is Li Qingsui! How dare she burn down the clan hall!"

"Miss Celadon, I respect you as a protector. I won't do anything at the shrine today..."

Li Changzhi said in a rich voice: "Hand over the criminal, and today's matter can be settled."

What happened today...

Very well said.

The Presbyterian Church has deliberately sought power. After detaining Qingsui, how can there be a future for Shenci Mountain?

"I can hand over Li Qingsui." Li Qingci said calmly: "But you need to let Gao Tian take it."

That's all.

Li Changzhi smiled.

He said coldly: "In that case...then you're welcome."

Just reach out!

A huge suction force came out from in front of Li Qingsui, and the little girl's expression suddenly changed.

Li Qingci raised her hand and waved!

next moment--

A formation pattern emerged!

"珰!"

A crisp sound exploded.

I saw a corner of the sleeve of the second elder Li Changzhi cracked.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the place where Li Qingci was standing. An invisible wall seemed to have appeared between the two of them, with strands of extraordinary source matter flowing and rolling in it... Where he reached out to grab before, there was The sharp wind knife slowly turned into calm.

This invisible formation had not been laid out when they last met.

Is this... learning to be smart?

"With a formation pattern, Miss Celadon doesn't think... you can stop me, right?"

Li Changzhi was not in a hurry. He stood with his hands behind his hands and said slowly: "I didn't want to settle the matter with you, the protector... But since you insist on doing so, let's settle the old debt together."

The second elder's voice was very soft: "Li Qingsui is incapable of being the head of the family, and you are incapable of being the protector... The bullshit Lantern Hunting Plan that cost Li a lot of money is simply a joke."

He looked up at the black flowers all over the mountains and plains.

Li Changzhi shook his head.

"What a stupid act..."

"Six hundred years, exchange your lifespan for the so-called hope, the future..."

He couldn't help but sarcastically said: "The Presbyterian Council has long wanted to cancel the investment in the shrine... The Li family clearly possesses miraculous arts such as prayer. They should have become the number one family in Nagano, but they chose to Shu trapped himself in the broken mountain!"

Li Qingci looked at him calmly.

Before entering the temple mountain.

In her memory, this old man was not like this.

It's just...everyone has two faces.

After Li Qihu died.

The old man with white beard and hair finally showed his true face.

His eyes showed contempt and disdain that had been hidden for decades.

"Look...look!"

"This rotten Black Mountain, I have long proposed to destroy it... It is because of you, idiots like you, who persist like stubborn donkeys, that this broken mountain has been preserved to this day, consuming a lot of money every year..."

"Every year... my proposals are rejected..."

"Every year... every protector is willing to be trapped in such a broken mountain..."

Li Changzhi put one hand on the formation pattern.

"Click" sound!

A crack opened up in that solid formation.

He pressed forward.

The array pattern is broken!

But his steps stalled again, because in front of him was the second floating formation.

Li Changzhi smiled: "I really don't understand..."

He walked on.

Li Qingci led her sister back.

Guided by the dream omens that kept her restless all day long, she set up several extraordinary formation patterns in front of the mountain road leading to the Shenci Mountain... But at this moment, one after another, one after another, was broken by Li Changzhi.

If the temple really faced the siege in the dream.

Then these formation patterns are of course unstoppable...

She looked a little pale.

And the voice in front of him, wearing a fluttering white robe, became more and more severe.

That kind, kind old man's face has become a bit ferocious.

Li Changzhi broke through all the formation patterns and stood in front of the two people.

"I really can't figure it out..."

He shook his head with a sneer: "How can there be a divine fetus in this world?"

"Boom!"

A thick thunder.

It sounded from the clouds above the temple mountain.

There seemed to be a golden thunderbolt falling from the sky. At this moment, the entire temple mountain was rendered like gold paper, and everyone's eyes were flooded by the blazing light.

This vision shocked everyone.

And the next moment.

The blazing light slowly disappeared.

At the foot of the Temple Mountain... there was peace.

It's like nothing happened.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next moment.

A soft girl's voice sounded in everyone's heart.

"Nothing is impossible in this world."

This wind-like voice passed through everyone's cheeks.

But I don’t know why.

The pulling power in the dark guided everyone to raise their heads.

On top of the mountain.

Golden light surged.

At the end of the sight... there seemed to be a figure of a graceful young girl.
