Chapter 439 440: Divine-level Treasure

The Celestial Envy Old Monster said confidently, "Patriarch Li, no need to look. I guarantee that brat has been blown to smithereens."

Li Yuandao nodded.

He was also confident that Su Mo had been torn to pieces.

After all, he and Celestial Envy Old Monster were both at the Semi-Saint Level now.

No one in Meteor City could withstand a joint attack from the two of them.

'Trying to trick me?'

Li Yuandao sneered, "Heh, since you're all about to be crushed under my heel, I'll play along."

With that, he turned to look behind him.

But the next second, he was dumbfounded.

He saw Su Mo staring at him, his eyes bloodshot and filled with rage.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Li Yuandao stared at Su Mo in disbelief.

'How could Su Mo possibly be alive?'

'Am I seeing things?!'

Li Yuandao rubbed his eyes hard, but when he looked at Su Mo again, Su Mo was still standing there, perfectly fine.

At that moment, Li Yuandao completely panicked.

Celestial Envy Old Monster asked, puzzled, "What's all this 'impossible' business? Patriarch Li, what on earth are you talking about?"

'They'd already killed Su Mo, so why was Li Yuandao so nervous?'

'Could it be that Su Mo came back from the dead?'

'What a load of bullshit!'

Li Yuandao tremblingly raised his hand and pointed at Su Mo. "Celestial Envy Old Monster, you... see for yourself."

"Fine, I'll look!"

Refusing to believe it, Celestial Envy Old Monster looked behind him.

Instantly, his mind went blank.

'Su Mo is really alive?'

'Just now, when he and Li Yuandao attacked, they had clearly used their full strength and definitely hit Su Mo.'

'Not even a Semi-Saint could have withstood that.'

'But Su Mo? He was completely unaffected.'

'What the hell is going on?'

Just as the two were reeling in confusion, Su Mo suddenly burst out furiously, "Celestial Envy Old Monster! Li Yuandao! Fuck your ancestors!"

He had been about to kill them both just moments ago, but held back when he saw they had reached the Semi-Saint level.

'Who knew they'd be so pathetic?'

'They couldn't even injure him, let alone scratch a single hair on his body.'

'What a disappointment.'

That was why he had started cursing.

Su Mo complained, "Damn it, you made me get my hopes up for nothing. You two really deserve to die."

It was the first time he had ever been this furious.

Celestial Envy Old Monster knew Su Mo was about to kill him and hastily retreated, trying to put some distance between them.

He didn't forget to warn Li Yuandao, "Patriarch Li, get back!"

WHOOSH!

Li Yuandao also fell back to evade.

'In his mind, even if he couldn't kill Su Mo, as long as he dodged Su Mo's attacks, Su Mo couldn't do anything to him.'

But...

BANG! BANG!

The moment he and Celestial Envy Old Monster lifted their feet, Su Mo had them by the throat.

"You..."

Li Yuandao watched helplessly as he and Celestial Envy Old Monster were lifted into the air.

No matter how they struggled, it was useless.

CRACK, CRACK...

The next second, their necks were crushed.

THUD!

Su Mo tossed their bodies aside and said with exasperation, "Get stronger in your next life. Don't fucking disappoint me again."

'All his immense power, and they died before he even had a chance to use it.'

Panic!

Utter panic!

All the Li Family Members Li Yuandao had brought with him descended into chaos.

Especially Li Mu!

He had never imagined he would provoke such a monster, bringing annihilation upon the Li Family.

'He was filled with regret.'

But in this world, there was no medicine for regret.

"The Patriarch... the Patriarch is dead!"

"What the hell are you standing around for? Run!"

The Li Family Members fled in a panic, scrambling for the gates of the Zhao Family estate.

However, they had barely reached the gate when Su Mo caught up, stomping Li Mu under his foot.

"Don't! Don't kill me!"

Li Mu begged in a panic.

Su Mo said indifferently, "I already gave you a chance on the street, but you didn't take it."

SPLAT!

Su Mo stomped Li Mu into a pulp.

Before he died, Li Mu cried out resentfully, "Ah... You killed me! The King of Reincarnation will not let you go! He'll kill your entire family!"

Su Mo curled his lip in disdain.

'Even if the King of Reincarnation was willing to let this go, he wasn't. The King of Reincarnation had to die.'

"Patriarch, it's our turn to act," Zhao Chengru said excitedly.

Patriarch Zhao said coldly, "Block the Li Family's escape. Kill them all. This time, I will utterly annihilate the Li Family."

Soon, the Li Family was wiped out.

Patriarch Zhao came before Su Mo and said respectfully, "Thank you, Young Master Su, for giving our Zhao Family the chance to eliminate our mortal enemy."

"No need to thank me!"

Su Mo said, waving his hand.

Patriarch Zhao said politely, "The Li Family has been destroyed. We can head back now. I will host you with the utmost sincerity."

However, Su Mo remained standing where he was.

'Head back? What's there to head back to?'

'I haven't even dismantled their estate yet.'

Su Mo said, "Patriarch Zhao, Patriarch Lan, and everyone else, can you do me a favor and help me dismantle the Li Family estate into a Storage Ring?"

"Dismantle their estate?"

Patriarch Zhao, Patriarch Lan, and the others looked astonished.

Su Mo pointed at the Li Family's main hall. "See that support beam? That's a Tier Seven Spiritual Soldier forged from Spiritual Materials. It would be such a waste not to take it back."

"And that flock of cranes—they're all Spiritual Birds. If we catch them and cook them, the taste would be to die for."

"Oh, and that willow tree in front of the latrine. It can release Spiritual Qi. We can't let it go to waste."

Su Mo listed the treasures as if they were his own family heirlooms.

Patriarch Zhao laughed. "Since Young Master Su wants them, let's help him out today. We'll level the Li Family estate."

"Heh, I would be happy to help!"

Patriarch Lan and the others said.

It had to be said, the Li Family was truly wealthy.

It took them a good half-day to completely dismantle the Li Family estate. Only after all the Treasures were packed into the Storage Ring did Su Mo leave, satisfied.

Looking at the Li Family residence, now reduced to a barren wasteland, Patriarch Lan, Liang Yi, and the others couldn't help but feel a lingering sense of fear.

During the banquet, they too had offended Su Mo.

If Su Mo had decided to hold a grudge, their family estates would probably be barren wastelands now, too.

For a moment, they couldn't stop the cold sweat from pouring down their backs.

「Back at the Zhao Family estate.」

Patriarch Zhao said enthusiastically, "I wonder what business brings Young Master Su to Meteor City? If it's convenient, you can tell us. We would be willing to help you with your troubles."

Patriarch Lan, Yu Tie, and the others all nodded.

In their eyes, Su Mo was a thick thigh to be hugged tightly.

"Are you all really willing to help me?"

Su Mo asked, pleasantly surprised. "Then I'll trouble you all to help me find a few Enlightenment Stones. I need them for my Cultivation!"

"What?"

"Enlightenment Stones?"

Patriarch Zhao said with difficulty, "Young Master Su, I can help you with anything else, but these Enlightenment Stones..."

"I know Enlightenment Stones are precious, so I don't need many. Ten or so should be enough," Su Mo said lightly.

He planned to find a few extra to keep as spares.

However, Patriarch Zhao gave a bitter smile. "Young Master Su, surely you don't know the true value of an Enlightenment Stone? That's a Divine-level Treasure."

"A Divine-level Treasure?"

Su Mo asked, surprised.

The Second Elder had only told him that Enlightenment Stones were very precious, but not that they were Divine-level Treasures.

'No wonder Patriarch Zhao was so hesitant.'

Su Mo compromised, "Since Enlightenment Stones are so precious, I won't make things difficult for you. Finding one or two should be fine, right?"
