Excessive ferocity due to caution

The crack in the ring wasn't large, but in Li Chenglong's eyes, it was as if a mountain had collapsed and the earth had split open!

This ring contains the power of extremely ominous rules, how could it crack so easily?

It must be a hallucination!

He shook his head violently and bit his tongue. A sharp pain shot through him. When he looked again, the cracks on the ring had not only not disappeared, but he could even vaguely see black flames!

"How is that possible..."

Li Chenglong's face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with panic.

wow-

The sea boiled, and blood surged like a dragon towards the sky. The giant skeletal hand that had been repelled reappeared!

This time, a body was actually connected to that giant hand!

It was Zhao Yi, covered in black tattoos!

Li Chenglong quickly retreated, his eyes almost overflowing with fear!

No matter how he ran, Li Chenglong was horrified to discover that he could not leave the beach or get away from the coast!

The enormous bone hand fell once more, its palm blocking out the sunlight!

Startled, Li Chenglong raised his fist to meet the attack again!

However, this time there was no earth-shattering collision like before. The two exchanged blows silently, and Li Chenglong did not even notice the power and texture transmitted from the giant skeletal hand.

An inexplicable sense of unease made Li Chenglong feel as if his punch had struck a void that didn't even exist, plunging him into a bottomless abyss...

He even felt that his punch... had been "eaten up" by Zhao Yi.

"So that's how it is..."

Zhao Yi's voice came from the sky, coming from all directions.

Seeing the cracks on his ring widening, Li Chenglong panicked and shouted at the crimson sea:

"You're playing tricks, come out here!"

"Is this all you can do, these dirty little tricks?"

"Hiding in the back... what kind of skill is that, being a disgusting, foul-smelling rat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the strange phenomena in the world vanished.

The sky above returned to normal, and the seawater changed from bright red to its normal deep blue.

The chill subsided, and the warmth of the bright sun returned to Li Chenglong's body once more.

The only thing that remained unchanged was the ring on his hand.

The ring, which contained the power of extremely ominous rules, shattered completely and fell into the yellow sand.

Li Chenglong stared at the cracked ring, slowly squatted down, and picked it up with trembling hands.

Thank you.

Zhao Yi's voice rang out from behind him, and Li Chenglong turned around abruptly.

He didn't see Zhao Yi, nor did he see the familiar seaside manor; he only saw a wine glass fall to the ground...

"Can you catch it?"

Zhao Yi appeared behind Li Chenglong at some point and spoke calmly.

Without hesitation, Li Chenglong ran towards the wine glass!

He had an almost real premonition that if the goblet shattered... he would die!

"Catch it...you must catch it!"

At that moment, Li Chenglong's mind screamed wildly.

But this short road seemed to stretch on forever.

He tried his best, but in the end, it was still too late.

The clear wine glass shattered in front of him, spilling its red wine all over the floor.

Li Chenglong collapsed to the ground.

After being lost in thought for a long time, she suddenly turned her head sharply, staring intently at Zhao Yi with resentment and anger:

"Zhao Yi, you killed me! The Li family will never let you get away with this! You will pay with your life!"

"Everyone connected to you must die!"

Zhao Yi did not answer.

He gave Li Chenglong a look, and Li Chenglong looked down to see cracks appearing on his body, from which a large amount of blood was seeping out...

"No...no!!"

"I don't want to die... I don't want to die!"

"Zhao Yi, please don't kill me! I don't want Blue Poison anymore. Just tell me what you want, and I'll give you anything..."

"I will absolutely not let my family cause you any trouble afterwards!"

"I swear!!"

Feeling the threat of death, Li Chenglong finally stopped being stubborn and began to beg for mercy.

But all he received in response was Zhao Yi's indifferent gaze.

That look was very familiar to Li Chenglong.

He used to look at those lowly people on the streets of the capital with the same gaze.

He never cared about the lives of these people, just as Zhao Yi now doesn't care about his life or death at all.

More and more blood flowed from Li Chenglong's body. His body was broken into pieces, just like the wine glass that had just been smashed. No matter what methods he used, how he circulated his body's power, or the family's divine arts, it was all in vain!

Wounds cannot heal on their own!

The cracks on his body were caused by some means he couldn't understand.

Because he grew up in the capital and his family was very powerful, Li Chenglong, despite his despicable nature, was exceptionally perceptive. He immediately recognized that the source of the wounds on his body was the power of the rules!

He was utterly horrified!

Zhao Yi is clearly not a powerful being, so why is he able to use the power of rules?

The two stared at each other. Li Chenglong slowly reached out his hand to Zhao Yi, but his arm shattered into countless pieces of flesh before he could even extend it halfway...

His body, and even his soul, were completely shattered at that moment.

Li Chenglong is dead.

His body lay on the beach in front of Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi did not leave Li Chenglong's body unattended, but instead chose to perform an on-site autopsy.

He wanted to learn about the Li family through Li Chenglong's corpse.

However, as soon as Zhao Yi came into contact with Li Chenglong's memory palace, he immediately sensed a mysterious and powerful force blocking many of Li Chenglong's memories, most of which were about the Li family.

It's not hard to imagine that this was done by the Li family.

They did not want outsiders to pry into their family secrets.

However, despite all their meticulous planning, Zhao Yi still managed to uncover a crucial secret from Li Chenglong's memories—

Li Chenglong, as the eldest son of the Li family, was mediocre in talent, ability, and character. However, in the end, Li Mao, the head of the Li family, chose Li Chenglong as the young master who would inherit the great cause of the Li family in the future.

It's hard not to overthink this.

Zhao Yi originally thought that Li Chenglong was the only son of the family. Now it seems that the Li family has always had better alternatives, but they insisted on making such a good-for-nothing into the young master of the Li family so that he could inherit the Li family business in the future.

Zhao Yi ended his continued search of Li Chenglong's memory palace.

On the vast beach, only Zhao Yi remained.

Zhao Yi gained a great deal from this battle with Li Chenglong.

The power of the rules on that ring allowed Zhao Yi to understand the essence of the rules, and his spiritual power was already showing signs of breaking through to the Great Famine!

The difference between a near-major inauspicious and a major inauspicious one is no longer simply a matter of power stats.

Whether it's a high-level near-great ferocity or a low-level near-great ferocity, their strength is basically measured by their power stats. However, both the former and the latter can break through at any time.

Once that thin layer of paper is pierced, the sea will be wide enough for fish to leap and the sky will be high enough for birds to fly!

P.S.: I'm already out of my mind.

He frantically revised the text, but still couldn't make any progress.

I'd smash my keyboard if I changed it.

My hand is bleeding from the fall, and I feel uncomfortable all over. I'm hot and restless, and the heat makes me feel anxious. Even setting the air conditioner to 23 degrees Celsius doesn't help. I feel uncontrollably irritable.

I'm so sorry, I've been feeling inexplicably down these past few days.

It's infuriating.
