Chapter 52: Making Arrangements For The Worst
"It can be fought, but the loss may be huge."
In front of the screen, Li Wei also heard the information from the Chen family. After all, they had been destroyed by those two families. So no one knew the enemy's strength better than the Chen family!
He could also see the fighting spirit of everyone in the Li family at this time.
Future generations are not afraid. What does he, the ancestor, have to be afraid of?
As long as the chance of defeating the opponent reaches 50%, it's worth a try!
The Hu and Wang families have ancestors in the fake golden core stage and a top-grade spiritual weapon, but their Li family's combat power is also not small. They have the Ancestor Hall Guardian Beast, the Violet Tempest Python!
Before, he wasn't sure how powerful the Violet Tempest Python was, but after controlling the war puppet, Li Wei definitely felt its power. The Violet Tempest Python is definitely among the best spiritual beasts, with strength comparable to the fake golden core stage!
As for a cultivator in the Golden Core stage ... Maybe he can barely survive, but if he wants to win a fight, it is absolutely impossible. There's a vast difference between each great realm.
Next up is the war puppet.
This tool is primarily used in large-scale interstellar battles, but it also has the power to fight against fake golden core stage cultivators. Especially since Li Wei is confident he can control the war puppet to defeat a fake golden core stage opponent!
As for foundation building...
"What we really lack now is the number of foundation-building stage cultivators and Qi refining stage cultivators compared to the two major families."
Li Wei frowned.
In Li's family, Li Dalong and his wife are in the foundation-building stage.
Despite the passage of years, the Li family still has only four spiritual beasts. Among them, the Eight-leaf Flower Demon is the weakest spiritual beast.
In terms of Qi refining, they are far behind those families in Tailin Town.
Li Yaozu is the strongest, now at the ninth level of Qi refining thanks to the cultivation of beast blood fruit and various elixirs.
Siblings Li Yaoqing and Li Yaotie are at the seventh level of Qi refining, Li Yaowen...ignore her.
Among the third-generation members, 12-year-old Li Yunlin is extremely talented but only at the peak of the third level.
The spirit beasts they currently have in the Spiritual Beast Garden are pretty good, with 102 of them capable of fighting with Qi Refining.
As for the 150 people in the guard team trained by Li Yaozu, only a meager 12 people have reached the Qi Refining Stage... The most powerful one is only at the second level of Qi Refining.
Li Wei, who has the highest level of combat power, is confident of victory.
But the middle and lower ranks... Even if the Chen family is willing to fight alongside the Li family, they will still be outmatched.
"Is this the foundation the Chen family's ancestor mentioned?"
Li Wei felt deeply troubled. This was only the difference in the number of cultivators.
The Hu and Wang families have been developing for hundreds of years. They have a large number of weapons, there are formations in their family land, and they even have various other methods.
Expecting the Violet Tempest Python and War Puppet to handle everything is unrealistic.
Their movements aren't as flexible as those of the cultivators and they already have their opponents.
"I just hope my hand speed is fast enough to control the war puppet and use the 'Ancestor's Wrath' at the same time."
Li Wei squinted his eyes.
This battle is inevitable. The Li family currently has limited resources. Without additional resources, their growth rate will be very slow and may even reach a limit. Meanwhile, Tailin Town will continue to grow stronger, and the longer they delay, the more passive their position will become!
"It would be great if we could lure them all here and prepare the ancestral spiritual formation diagram."
Li Wei pursed his lips.
...
While Li Wei was calculating the comparison of combat power between the two sides, the Li family did not rush to Tailin Town immediately. They still maintained a clear sense of the situation, understanding the current gap with Tailin Town.
But none of them are cowards!
Once the hope of revenge appeared, they could not suppress it again. Perhaps this is the blood and will that the Li family has gradually formed over the years.
On this day, the entire Li family seemed to be going about their usual activities.
Li Yaowen sat under the peach blossom tree in the Li family's courtyard, holding a book. She seemed unconcerned about the life-and-death battle the Li family was about to face, but her grip on the book tightened.
"If we do nothing, the Li family will slowly die and be liquidated by Tailin Town sooner or later. If I fail, I will be the sinner of the Li family."
No one knew that this seemingly calm woman had proposed the fight in the ancestral hall. What kind of burden is in her heart?
But she had to seize the best opportunity and make the best choice for her family.
Just like her family and ancestors, who did not look down upon her because of her frailty and inability to restrain even a chicken, they supported her as much as they could!
While she was thinking, several maids loyal to Li Yaowen arrived with a shadowy young man and a child.
"Auntie."
Li Yunlin and his younger brother saluted Li Yaowen.
Li Yaowen nodded slightly. "Yunlin, we have to do something big at home. If something goes wrong, you take Yunbing and escape. These maids will take care of you, but remember, you will always be part of the Li family."
"Auntie... What happened?"
Although Li Yunlin was young, he knew that his aunt wouldn't say such things unless there was a risk of extermination.
"Nothing, just a big battle." Li Yaowen waved to the two brothers and touched their heads. "Child, go ahead. Our ancestors will always protect the children of our Li family. You don't have to worry."
Watching the maids lead the two children away, Li Yaowen breathed a sigh of relief.
Even in the face of a formidable enemy, she made arrangements for the worst.
"I hope everything goes well."
