"It doesn't matter."

Li Xuan said calmly, he was very confident.

Ye Qingcheng looked at Li Xuan speechlessly, expressing her doubt, "Where do you get your confidence from?"

Li Xuan waved his hand, and Ye Qingcheng remained silent.

……

……

Inside the Star Glory Sect, the atmosphere was as oppressive as the night before a storm. After learning that all the disciples sent to the Li family had died tragically, the sect leader's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

He sat high on the throne of the sect leader, his hands gripping the armrests tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force. A sinister light flashed in his eyes as he gritted his teeth and muttered, "Hmph, the Li family, how dare they! They are so ignorant as to dare to lay such a cruel hand on the people of my Xingyao Sect. I will make them pay for this debt tenfold!"

The elders beside him were also filled with anger, but also with a hint of fear. After all, the strength displayed by the Li family was too terrifying. However, they were unwilling to swallow their anger. For a moment, the hall was filled with an atmosphere of resentment and helplessness.

"Sect Master, the Li family is currently very powerful, and our Xingyao Sect may not be able to contend with them alone. This matter needs to be considered carefully." An elder frowned and spoke cautiously.

"Take it easy? Hmph, are you saying my Star Glory Sect's disciples died in vain?" The sect leader slammed his hand on the armrest and stood up, his wide robes billowing in the wind, revealing his anger and resentment. "Immediately send someone to inform the noble young master of the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty. He promised to protect our Star Glory Sect. Now that something like this has happened, he will definitely not sit idly by!"

The disciples of Xingyao Sect who remained behind were terrified and lived in constant fear after learning that their fellow disciples who had gone to cause trouble at the Li family had died one after another.

Before long, the news reached the ears of the noble young master of the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty.

At this moment, he was in an extremely luxurious celestial palace, surrounded by celestial mist, with spiritual springs flowing and radiating a hazy spiritual light.

He leaned lazily against a long chair made of rare spirit jade, surrounded by several graceful, beautiful women with different temperaments. Some offered him spirit fruits and immortal wine, while others gently fanned him with jade fans, creating a scene of comfort and extravagance.

This young nobleman was handsome, with striking features, sharp eyebrows, and bright eyes. His eyes held an innate arrogance and disdain, as if nothing in the world could catch his eye.

He wore a magnificent brocade robe embroidered with intricate and mysterious celestial patterns in gold thread. Every detail highlighted his incomparably noble status. A jade belt inlaid with various rare gemstones was tied around his waist. With his movements, the gemstones reflected a dazzling light, so bright that it was hard for people to open their eyes.

When he heard the servant trembling as he reported the tragic events that Xingyaomen had suffered at the Li family's residence, he was first slightly taken aback. Then, a barely perceptible glint of coldness flashed in his eyes, while a contemptuous smile curled at the corner of his mouth, as if he had heard something utterly ridiculous.

Upon hearing the news that Xingyao Sect had suffered a great loss at the Li family's hands, and that all of its disciples had been wiped out, he was first slightly taken aback, then a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips as he sneered: "Heh, the Li family? They're just a small family that doesn't know its own limitations. They actually dared to touch people protected by my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty. They really have a death wish."

He casually toyed with a jade wine cup in his hand, the wine swirling gently inside without spilling a drop. His movements were elegant yet somewhat nonchalant.

"The mere Li family dares to act wildly in front of me. They probably don't know how powerful my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty is. Those trash from the Star Glory Sect are dead, but since they went out using my name, I still have to help them regain their face. Otherwise, the cultivation world will think that my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty is easy to bully in the future."

Upon hearing this, the beautiful women around him echoed in sweet voices, praising the young master's prestige and promising that he would surely make the Li family pay a heavy price. Their fawning manner made the young master feel even more superior and arrogant.

"Hmph, the mere Li family is so ignorant of their own mortality that they dare to attack the Star Glory Sect, which is protected by my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty. They really have a death wish."

The young nobleman's languid voice rang out, yet it carried an undeniable sense of oppression, making the surrounding air seem to chill. The women who had been smiling sweetly were all terrified and fell silent, daring not to utter another word.

He slowly stood up, waved his hand casually, and the women, like startled birds, hurriedly retreated to the side.

The young nobleman strolled to the window, gazing into the distance as if he could pierce through layers of space to see where the Li family was located. "I want to see just what abilities this Li family has that makes them so reckless. Do they think they can run rampant in this cultivation world just because they have some resources? I will make them pay back double for what they did to Xingyao Sect today."

A servant mustered his courage and stepped forward, saying, "Young master, the Li family is said to be quite powerful. When the people from the Piaoyun Dynasty went to apologize, even the Sage King Ancestor treated them with utmost respect. We should be careful."

Upon hearing this, the young master's eyes widened in fury. He whirled around, unleashing a powerful aura that sent the servant flying backward, crashing into the wall and spitting out blood. "How dare you! Are you questioning my abilities? What Piaoyun Dynasty, what Li family? Before my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty, they are nothing but chickens and dogs. If the Li family dares to touch anyone from my Xingyao Sect, I will make them know the consequences of offending my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty. Even the Heavenly King himself couldn't protect them!"

With that, he waved his long sleeves, and his spiritual power surged, instantly spreading a powerful aura that enveloped the entire pavilion.

"Go, send someone to tell the Li family to come to Xingyao Sect. Tell them to be prepared. If they know what's good for them, they should obediently pay what they owe and give what they owe, and then kneel down and beg for mercy. Perhaps I can show them mercy and spare their lives. Otherwise, hmph, don't blame me for erasing the Li family from this cultivation world!" The young master's tone was icy, his eyes full of contempt and disdain, as if the Li family were already fish on his chopping board, at his mercy.

The young nobleman stood in the pavilion that radiated spiritual light, his heart filled with anger at being disobeyed. He never expected that the Li family, to which Jiang Yu belonged, was just a small family that he had never taken seriously, yet they actually had the courage to openly defy the majesty of his Seven Star Immortal Dynasty and to show no mercy to the people of Xingyao Sect.

"Hmph, what use do they think such resistance is? It's like an ant trying to shake a tree, utterly overestimating their own strength!" The young nobleman sneered, his exquisite face slightly distorted with anger, and the contempt in his eyes grew even stronger, as if the Li family's resistance was nothing more than a ridiculous farce in his eyes. "In the cultivation world, the strong are always respected. My Seven Star Immortal Dynasty stands at the pinnacle of many forces, and wherever we go, everyone treats us with utmost respect. But the Li family dares to defy my will; they probably don't understand what this means."

He paced back and forth, each step sending ripples of spiritual energy across the jade floor beneath his feet, as if echoing his restless emotions.

The servants around him were all silent and trembling, their heads bowed, not daring to utter a sound, for fear of offending this capricious young nobleman and suffering another misfortune.

"The Li family is courting death. I originally thought that if they were sensible and obediently accepted punishment, I could spare them this time, as a way to give them a chance to learn their lesson. But now it seems they are determined to go down this dark path." The young nobleman narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold glint flashing in them, and a palpable killing intent surging within them. "Since that's the case, then I will grant their wish and make the Li family disappear completely from this Eastern Wilderness. This will also give those forces that dare to challenge the authority of my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty a bloody lesson, letting them know just how terrible the consequences of disobeying me can be."

Seeing the young master so angry, the trusted confidant hesitated for a moment, but still forced himself to speak up and advise, "Young master, although the Li family does deserve to be taught a lesson, they did make the Piaoyun Dynasty bow down and apologize before. They might really have some hidden tricks up their sleeves. Why don't we send someone to investigate first and then make a decision?"

Upon hearing this, the young master frowned, his eyes filled with displeasure. He glanced coldly at his confidant. "Inquiring about their strength? Do you think I'm afraid of the Li family? The prestige of my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty wasn't earned through timidity. No matter what tricks they have up their sleeves, they're all futile in the face of absolute power. As for the Floating Cloud Dynasty, in my eyes, they're nothing but a small fry, dependent on the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty for survival. Their bowing to the Li family only proves their weakness, but I'm not so easily fooled."

With that, he waved his hand, and a beam of spiritual energy shot out from his fingertip, instantly condensing into the shape of a spirit bird in mid-air. The spirit bird shimmered with dazzling light, and its flapping wings exuded a lively aura, as if it were a living creature.

"Go and relay my words to the Li family verbatim. Tell them I'm giving them three days. If they don't come to Xingyao Gate to apologize and beg for mercy after three days, I will personally lead my troops to raze the Li family to the ground and let them know the price of opposing me!" The young master coldly ordered the spirit bird, his ruthlessness evident in his words.

As if understanding his words, the spirit bird let out a clear cry, then spread its wings and flew high towards the Li family's direction, disappearing from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

The young nobleman looked in the direction the spirit bird had gone, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his lips. "The Li family, the Li family, I hope you won't regret your rash actions today."

Standing atop the pavilion, the noble young master Jiang Liang gazed in the direction the spirit bird had flown away. The cruel smile on his lips gradually faded, replaced by an expression of ruthlessness and scheming.

Actually, he came to this Eastern Wilderness for the sake of the young master of the Jiang family.

The young master of the Jiang family is a peerless genius rarely seen in the entire cultivation world, who has shown extraordinary talent since childhood.

It is said that when he was born, the world was filled with spiritual energy and auspicious signs, as if the heavens were celebrating the birth of such a genius.

As he grew a little older, his talent for cultivation became even more astonishing. He could easily cross realms that others would need to spend years or even decades to reach, often in just a few months. Moreover, each time he broke through, his spiritual power was so powerful and pure that it was astonishing, as if he had an innate affinity with the spiritual power of heaven and earth that was unmatched by others.

Most importantly, the young master of the Jiang family possesses the legendary Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart.

This Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart is no ordinary thing. Its possessor can understand the operating rules of all things in the world and has a unique advantage in comprehending various techniques and supernatural powers. High-level techniques that are difficult for others to understand can be mastered by him with just a little study, and he can unleash power far beyond that of ordinary people.

Moreover, this keen intellect allows him to anticipate his opponent's moves in battle. No matter what tactics his opponent employs, he can always predict them in advance, cleverly deflect them, and even turn the tables by exploiting the opponent's weaknesses to deliver a fatal blow.

Such a brilliant and talented person was naturally regarded by the Jiang family as the hope for their future rise. The entire family poured resources into him and carefully cultivated him. The young master of the Jiang family lived up to expectations and made a great name for himself in the cultivation world at a young age. All forces praised him highly, and many people predicted that given time, he would surely stir up a huge wave in the cultivation world and stand at the peak, looking down on all living beings.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yu became a stain on the young master of the Jiang family.

Outside of the Jiang family, not many people knew much about this matter. However, there were still some members of the Jiang family who were still alive and working for Jiang Yu.

Jiang Liang was well aware of the young master's thoughts. As a trusted confidant of the Jiang family, he was eager to curry favor with this future leader in order to secure a higher position and more benefits for himself within the family. Therefore, when he learned that the Li family, to which Jiang Yu belonged, dared to defy the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty and even clashed with the Star Glory Sect, he saw this as an excellent opportunity. He believed that as long as he could severely torment the Li family, especially by making Jiang Yu suffer humiliation in front of everyone, he would surely win the favor of the young master of the Jiang family.

"Hmph, Jiang Yu, you're really unlucky. Who told you to be so blind as to provoke someone you shouldn't have?" Jiang Liang muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with malice. "Once I've crushed the Li family and captured you, I'll bring you before the young master of the Jiang family and let him do as he pleases. That would be a great achievement for me. I want to see how you'll hold your head high in this cultivation world. And those who used to compare you to the young master should wake up and realize that in this world, only the young master of the Jiang family is the true chosen one, unmatched by anyone."

As Jiang Liang pondered, he strolled back into the pavilion and sat on the bench, resuming his languid and comfortable demeanor. However, a deep ruthlessness and scheming still lingered in the depths of his eyes. He summoned a servant and ordered, "Go, gather more men. In three days, I want the Li family to witness the might of my Seven Star Immortal Dynasty. Make sure you bring Jiang Yu back to me unharmed. If anything goes wrong, you will all suffer the consequences!"

The servants hurriedly obeyed and left, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
