Chapter 2389: Chapter 2195: What Kind of World Is This_5
"Senior brother, you are right, the matters of the Taoist temple have indeed consumed a lot of your energy. Your cultivation level may not have improved for decades, while your junior brother, me, has been practicing day and night for this day. Senior brother, take this!" Li Wendao finished speaking and flung three talismans towards Li Wenxin, each transforming into flowing water, thunder explosions, and cold frost attacking Li Wenxin.
Li Wendao’s move seemed simple but was actually extraordinary. Being able to throw out three talismans at once was already quite difficult, and these three talismans were also coordinated: watering, then thunder, following with frost. It was clearly a move determined to take a life.
Li Wenxin remained calm and composed as he watched the three talismans fly towards him. He extended the large sleeve of his Taoist robe, capturing all three talismans within the Universe in the Sleeve, rendering them as harmless as firecrackers that had failed to explode inside his robe sleeve, without making a sound.
"You!" Seeing this, Li Wendao was visibly flustered. He had practiced this move for over 20 years, prepared for this very moment, yet did not expect his efforts, specially honed to counter Li Wenxin, would be easily thwarted by him.
"You think I don’t know you’ve been secretly practicing?" Li Wenxin asked Li Wendao.
"You snoop on my practice? You dare accuse me of treacherous deeds?" Li Wendao questioned Li Wenxin.
"As uninhibited and lawless as you are, how could I not guard against you? You practiced this move for 20 years; I’ve practiced Universe in the Sleeve for 50 years!" Li Wenxin retorted.
"You’ve intended to kill me for 50 years?" Li Wendao’s eyes turned red.
"50 years ago, I foresaw that we would one day end up like this! You’ve gone astray! The Way of Nature is not about reckless actions regardless of good or evil, but understanding the heavenly way and acting accordingly!" Li Wenxin told Li Wendao.
"Hahaha" Li Wendao laughed up to the sky, and then, taking a bell from his sleeve, began to ring it. The wind howled through the shadows of the trees, and a dark figure attacked Li Wenxin, who once again deployed Universe in the Sleeve, puffing up his large robe sleeve to envelop the shadow.
"Rip" A sound echoed as Li Wenxin’s robe sleeve was torn open. As he turned his head to look clearly, the shadow was obviously the head of a child, connected below to vertebrae and a string of internal organs, resembling the braid atop a Qing Dynasty human head, with the head completely blackened, empty eye sockets devoid of eyeballs, mouth open revealing animal-like sharp teeth, biting into Li Wenxin’s throat.
"Ah!—" Li Wenxin screamed miserably, as a piece of flesh was ripped from his neck, blood flowed endlessly, and the wound rapidly blackened as if it were poisoned and burnt, with the flowing blood turning black.
"Fly... Flying Down..." Li Wenxin’s throat was injured, managing only to utter a few words, and he collapsed to his knees, wavering from excessive blood loss.
"Hahahaha, indeed, I’ve practiced for 20 years, did you think I only practiced the previous move?" Li Wendao laughed triumphantly, stepping closer to Li Wenxin.
"You practice Nanyang Sorcery, which will bring you retribution!" Li Wenxin knelt before Li Wendao, clutching his neck wound while speaking to Li Wundao.
"Retribution? If there’s truly retribution, based on what I’ve done, I should have been struck by lightning long ago, torn to pieces! Yet am I not well? You’ve lived life as a coward, ultimately losing the Taoist temple to me, and now facing death at my hands!" Li Wendao looked at Li Wenxin, eyes brimming with vengeful gratification.
"Do you hate me so?" Li Wenxin asked Li Wendao.
"Hate, how could I not? We both clearly liked Fang Yu, yet why did you persuade me to go down the mountain? Was Fang Yu sent by you to seduce me deliberately? I fell for your ploy, fell for that bitch, lost master’s affection, lost the Taoist temple, lost Fang Yu! You turned my life into a tragedy! You made me lose my family, destroyed my home! You made me lose the position of head of the Taoist temple! You caused me to be scorned by the Taoist brothers!" Li Wendao’s spittle sprayed all over Li Wenxin’s face.
"I... I thought you loved her more than I did!" Li Wenxin emotionally shouted back at Li Wendao, blood spurting from the neck wound.
"Love? Do you know what love is? Fang Yu committed suicide for me, I killed for Fang Xiaoyu, that is love. You, hiding in the Taoist temple chanting daily, not daring to admit your feelings, not even daring to attend her funeral, you call that love?" Li Wendao retorted Li Wenxin.

Li Wenxin held his neck, tears streaming down his eyes.
"Facing death, have you finally realized? Too late! I will kill Song Xiaodong’s disciples right before your eyes!" Li Wendao told Li Wenxin, then turned around to walk in front of Lu Yaobing, opening the sack containing Lu Yaobing.
Lu Yaobing wept ceaselessly, her eyes, washed by tears, were bright as stars, but her face was filled with terror, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
"Miss Lu, your master saves lives, I just kill your master’s disciples."
Li Wendao said to Lu Yaobing, taking a talisman from his bosom.
