Chapter 890 – The Fellow Li Clan Members, Attack of the Purple-Masked Assassins, the Great Bow Appears

News of Chu Kuangren and Li Xueying returning to the Li clan soon reached the Li clan disciples who were scattered all over the planet.
Many of them quickly rushed back home.
Meanwhile, inside the Li clan’s mansion.
Chu Kuangren was now forging something with his Phoenix’s Flame.
He was trying to make… a new bow!
After obtaining the Li clan’s Immortal Technique, he passed it on to his Earth Soul and Hell Soul to study it. He had almost mastered that technique by now.
One could tell by the name that the Four Mystical Art Solar Shot was an Immortal Archery Technique. Naturally, one would need to have a good bow to use that Immortal Technique.
“Good thing I found some excellent forging materials back at the Black Blood Tower’s branch. Now, I can put them to good use.”
“Furthermore, I’ve finally found a use for this Immortal Tendon too.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
With the white Immortal Tendon in his grasp, he decided to use it as the string of the bow!
Bows that use an Immortal Tendon as their bowstring were basically nonexistent in the Violet Gold Galaxy, and the bow that Chu Kuangren was making was probably the only one. Besides, with his weaponsmithing skills, Chu Kuangren might even create a bow close to the level of an Immortal Weapon.
While Chu Kuangren was busy forging that weapon, many of the scattered Li clan disciples arrived at the Li clan mansion one after another.
These disciples have gathered back home and were discussing the recent happenings.
“D*mn it. They’re just too despicable!”
A former Li clan sky-pride said resentfully, “The Black Blood Tower is determined to wipe us all out. We can’t stay at Planet Sirius any longer.”
“But if we leave Planet Sirius, where else can we go?”
“Although the Violet Gold Galaxy is vast, the Black Blood Tower has their spies placed everywhere. Unless we change our identity, we will certainly be discovered very quickly.”
“That’s right. Besides, even if we do find refuge in other civilizations, it doesn’t mean that they will take us in too. It’s too hard just to start over in other civilizations, not to mention the existing threat of the Black Blood Tower.”
Everyone discussed.
They were a little in despair.
Especially having been on the escape for the past few days, their will to fight was almost destroyed. The Black Blood Tower was like a guillotine blade hanging over their heads, not knowing when it would fall on them. It kept them on edge the entire time.
“Everyone, I’ve called you back this time because I’ve found a way to turn this situation around,” said Li Xueying to everyone.
She then told everyone about what happened with Chu Kuangren.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in doubt.
“The Sword Poet Immortal, Chu Kuangren? So he’s here on Planet Sirius…”
“I’ve heard the rumors but thought they were just that. I can’t believe he’s really here. Where is the Sword Poem Immortal now?”
One of the Li clan elders asked.
“He’s now in closed-door meditation,” Li Xueying said.
“I suppose you’ve handed over the Li clan’s Immortal Technique to him?”
“Yes.”
Li Xueying nodded.
“How can you be such a fool!” The Li clan elder could not help but shake his head. “What if Chu Kuangren suddenly changes his mind?”
“There’s no doubt that Chu Kuangren has come to Planet Sirius to defeat the Black Blood Tower. He’s the key to improving our Li clan’s current situation. By giving him the Immortal Technique first, I’ve shown my sincerity and promise to our agreement. If he changes his mind, we’re all going to die either way. It doesn’t matter if I give him our Immortal Technique or not.”
Li Xueying said.
‘Besides.’
‘If Chu Kuangren truly wanted that Immortal Technique, he could’ve taken it by force. There was no way I would have been able to stop him if he did that anyway. I might as well hand it over nicely at the start.’
“The Sword Poem Immortal, Chu Kuangren, has certainly made a reputation of himself throughout the Violet Gold Galaxy recently. Can he really defeat the Black Blood Tower? The Black Blood Tower Master is no ordinary Heavenly Daoist Celestial, you know.”
Some questioned Chu Kuangren’s capability.
Although he was very famous, none of them had actually witnessed his true strength in battle before. However, things were different with the Black Blood Tower Master, who killed the Li Clan Leader. Everyone still had a terrifying memory of his power.
“No matter what, he’s our only hope.”
Li Xueying said.
“There’s no hope for all of you anymore!”
At that moment, an indifferent voice suddenly rang out, and several incredibly powerful auras instantly locked onto the whole Li clan mansion.
The expressions of Li Xueying and the others immediately turned stern.
Three figures, two men and a woman, were hovering above the Li clan mansion. All of them were wearing purple masks.
They were the purple-masked assassins from the Black Blood Tower!
Other than them, there were many more silver-masked and even gold-masked assassins surrounding the Li clan mansion.
“It’s the Merciless Swordsman, Mental Chaos Daoist Celestial, and the Dark Fox Daoist Celestial. The remaining three purple-masked assassins from the Black Blood Tower have arrived.”
“What a terrifying aura!”
Li Xueying’s expression was terribly grim.
She then took out a rune and activated it in mid-air.
Suddenly, large amounts of Daoist patterns intertwined in the void, forming a runic boundary that enveloped the whole Li clan mansion.
“Oh, it looks like you already knew we were coming.”
The purple-masked assassin, the Dark Fox Daoist Celestial said coldly.
“You bet. This is a restriction barrier made by Brother Chu. Even a Heavenly Daoist Celestial will have to spend some time breaking through it.”
Li Xueying said lightly.
“Chu Kuangren… Where is he?”
The Merciless Swordsman asked coldly.
He was the most powerful among the three purple-masked assassins. At the mention of Chu Kuangren, a hint of battle intent flashed across his eyes.
“You should focus on this runic boundary first.” Li Xueying snorted while taking out her longbow. She immediately drew her bow and fired multiple arrows toward them.
Her arrows rained down and exploded among the crowd of assassins.
Some of them could not dodge in time and were caught in the attack.
The remaining Li clan disciples attacked as well.
Having been on the run for so long, everyone channeled their Emperor qi to the limit, releasing countless arrows to vent their anger.
Boom, boom, boom…
The void continued exploding.
The three purple-masked assassins also attacked.
The Merciless Swordsman unleashed a strike, his sword beam covering the whole sky.
The Mental Chaos Daoist Celestial was a woman with a charming face and sweet smile. As soon as she took out a guqin and started playing it, waves upon waves of guqin fluctuations unleashed and slammed forth towards the boundary like a crashing tide.
Lastly, the Dark Fox Daoist Celestial was a yokai that had become an Emperor on Planet Sirius. His surging yokai qi gathered and formed a gigantic dark fox avatar behind him, unleashing terrifying storms and hurricanes with a swing from its claws.
As the three Heavenly Daoist Celestials attacked, their terrifying energy caused the whole runic boundary to tremble violently. Even the Li clan mansion was rumbling because of it.
After a round of attacks by the Heavenly Daoist Celestials, the light from the boundary became a lot dimmer.
“This boundary will be gone after a few more attacks.”
“When that time comes, not only the Li clan members, but even the Sword Poem Immortal, Chu Kuangren, shall die here. Word says that he has killed our Young Master at one of the branch outposts too. Whoever can kill this man will not only receive tons of great rewards but also a special reward from the Master himself.”
“That’s right…”
The three Heavenly Daoist Celestials remembered that and soon became very delighted. Their following attacks grew more powerful.
Along with a loud explosion, the runic boundary was completely shattered. Li Xueying found herself incredibly anxious upon seeing that.
The others also started to feel a sense of hopelessness building up within them.
“Attack!”
The Merciless Swordsman yelled coldly.
However, several ripples appeared in the void at that moment, and a colorful pillar of light shot into the skies.
Countless Daoist patterns were flowing through that pillar of light. Within it, a purple-red longbow could be seen vaguely, beaming with powerful surges of energy.
“Is that a Daoist Weapon?!”
“What a powerful Daoist Weapon fluctuation! It’s a Heavenly Daoist Weapon! No, this aura far exceeds any ordinary Heavenly Daoist Weapon!”
“To think there’s still a great treasure hidden in the Li clan mansion!”
