Kong Rui naturally thought of what Chao Bai had said.
Although the Li family’s patriarch and the others were delayed because of Li Han, the destruction of the ancestral hall was much more important than Li Han!
Kong Rui nodded heavily. “Do it!”
She came in front of the seven of them again, took the jade token in Hua Xing’s hand, and recorded their wishes one by one.
In order to ensure that Kong Rui’s identity wouldn’t be questioned by their sects or families, they also told Kong Rui some methods to make them trust her.
When everyone was done explaining, they revealed calm and gratified smiles. “We can finally leave this place!”
The seven of them slowly closed their eyes, as if they were waiting for Hades to descend.
Kong Rui and Chao Bai looked at each other, then killed the seven people in front of the seven coffins.
As the seven of them died, the seven coffins kept swaying violently, as if they were affected by a huge force, and emitted cracking sounds.
Kong Rui watched as the seven coffins cracked from the center and then scattered in all directions.
“Let’s leave quickly!” Chao Bai protected Kong Rui with one hand and the two of them ran out together.
Just as they reached the entrance of the ancestral hall, Chao Bai suddenly grabbed Kong Rui and hid behind the huge stone pillar beside the ancestral hall.
Chao Bai held the seal with one hand and muttered something.
Kong Rui glanced at Chao Bai and knew that he must have discovered something.
In the next moment, two figures rushed in from outside the ancestral hall.
The two of them stood in the middle of the ancestral hall. One of them looked around at the dilapidated scene and shouted anxiously, “What’s going on?! Who did this?!”
Kong Rui saw that the person was the First Elder.
The person standing in front of him was the Li family’s patriarch, who stood with his hands behind his back.
The Li family’s patriarch’s expression was dark as he looked at the seven destroyed coffins in front of him. Anger appeared in his eyes. “Seal the residence. We must capture the person who destroyed the ancestral hall! Send someone to the palace to report to the queen that the ancestral hall was destroyed. Tell her to make plans early.”
The First Elder didn’t dare to delay and hurriedly turned to leave.
Kong Rui realized that the two people were so anxious that they didn’t discover her and Chao Bai. It seemed that Chao Bai must have used some spell to hide their whereabouts.
Kong Rui, who was originally on guard, immediately felt relieved.
She watched the Li family’s patriarch’s actions carefully.
The Li family’s patriarch walked to the coffin and stared at the blood on the ground for a long time.
Kong Rui was worried that the Li family’s patriarch would harm their corpses, so she placed them in her storage ring before leaving.
No matter what, she couldn’t let the Li family harm their bodies after they died!
The Li family’s patriarch’s eyes were filled with anger as he slammed his palm against the wall.
The palm print was deeply embedded in the broken wall. Not to mention Kong Rui, even Chao Bai couldn’t help but frown.
The Li family’s patriarch never showed off, so they didn’t expect him to have already reached the ninth level of the Earth realm.
As Kong Rui looked at the faint black ball of air on the palm print, her expression changed slightly.
Was that… demonic energy?
Kong Rui blinked and turned to look at Chao Bai.
Chao Bai seemed to be surprised as well. As he looked at the demonic energy lingering on the palm print, he seemed to have thought of something.
His eyes widened and anger surged.
Kong Rui could tell that something was wrong with Chao Bai’s expression and immediately pulled him back. She shook her head and whispered, “Let’s leave this place first!”
Chao Bai seemed to want to do something, but Kong Rui didn’t let go of his hand.
Chao Bai knew that arguing with Kong Rui now might expose their positions. Moreover, even if the cultivation level of a sorcerer was a level higher than cultivators of the same level, Chao Bai knew that with his current strength, he was still inferior to the Li Clan’s Patriarch. He might be able to hold his own against the Li Clan’s Patriarch, but he had almost no chance of winning!
He frowned slightly and grabbed Kong Rui’s hand. Then, he turned around and rushed towards the broken wall beside the ancestral hall.
The Li family’s patriarch seemed to sense something. He turned to look at the broken wall, but saw nothing.
His gaze changed slightly. After a while, he turned back to the seven coffins in front of him and reached out towards the center of the wall.
As the Li Clan’s Patriarch grabbed it, a blood-red crystal shot out of the wall.
The Li family’s patriarch held the crystal in his hand and took a deep breath before saying, “The Li family is in danger.”
