Supreme of Seven Realms

"It's over, it's all over this time. The Wang Clan's Tier 4 pill refiner has made his move."    

    

The Li family's meeting hall was filled with news. Li Tianhao and the few elders all had worried looks on their faces.    

    

"Patriarch, what do we do now? The Wang family is starting to suppress our market. It must be because that lass Yiru released that news that displeased the tier 4 pill refiner of the Wang family that such a thing happened. "    

    

"If we were to say that our marketplace was annexed by the Wang Clan, then our Li Clan is really finished."    

    

The elders had ugly expressions on their faces. They looked as though their parents had died.    

    

Li Tianhao also didn't know what to do, but he was the head of the family after all, so he wasn't as anxious as the elders.    

    

"Li Tian Hao, what do you mean? You don't want to settle the matter with your daughter." Seeing that Li Tian Hao didn't say anything, one of the elders shouted loudly. He no longer had any intention of respecting others.    

    

"That's right. Although we are only elders, we are still members of the Li family. If we knew back then that you were so indecisive, we would have definitely not supported you as the master."    

    

"I'm telling you, no matter what, we have to give the Wang family an answer today. If we send our memories over, perhaps the Wang family might even leave us a chance of survival."    

    

A few people started to criticize Li Tian Hao with anger.    

    

They had made up their minds to let Li Tianhao marry Li Yiran.    

    

Li Tian Hao closed his eyes. He couldn't retort against their accusations.    

    

Indeed, it was his indecision that caused the Li Clan to fall into a predicament. Originally, the Li Clan's strength surpassed the Wang Clan's. If he had been decisive enough, then their clan might have been the strongest in the entire Xuzhou City.    

    

"Don't worry, I'll give the Li family an explanation." Li Tianhao sighed helplessly. He couldn't bear it anymore. Was it really the only way to send his daughter there?    

    

"Dad, it's great that both of you are here." At this moment, Li Yiran excitedly walked in.    

    

In her hands was a jade bottle. It was the nine grade-4 pills which Ling Tianyu had given him.    

    

Ling Tianyu knew that as long as Li Yiru spread the news, the pill refiner of the Wang family would force him out.    

    

A marketplace was simply the best method because all the cultivators in this city needed pills.    

    

Thus, when the grade-4 3-star pills were released from the Wang family marketplace, Ling Tianyu was able to produce a batch of grade-4 pills. However, his star rating was limited to 4-star, and he was only slightly above the apothecary's.    

    

He did not concoct any top-grade pills, because he would have to break his opponent's heart step by step. Only then would he be able to display the might of an alchemist.    

    

Besides, didn't that grade-4 apothecary not directly give out superior pills?    

    

"Hmph, that's great. Li Yiru, let me tell you, for the sake of the Li family's survival, we will send you to the Wang family today."    

    

The Great Elder said fiercely.    

    

The others looked at her with cold gazes. They knew from their eyes that these so-called uncles had already decided to make her a victim of the clan's interests.    

    

Hearing that, Li Yiran's delicate body trembled. She didn't understand why her relatives were so heartless.    

    

Glancing at her father, Li Yiru's hands, which were holding the jade bottle, started to tremble. She clenched her fists tightly as she felt the heartlessness of her family.    

    

Only that figure did not lie to her. Back then, when he found out that a Tier 4 pill refiner from the Wang Clan had helped, he was shocked. When he entered his room and saw Ling Tianyu's calm face, he calmed down.    

    

Later on, when he obtained this bottle of medicinal pills, he didn't even dare imagine that the grade of this medicinal pill would be higher than the Wang Clan's 3-star medicinal pills.    

    

Even though he didn't personally witness Ling Tianyu forging it, judging from the temperature of the pill, it should have just been produced.    

    

Back then, she had asked Ling Tianyu whether he was the one who forged the pill. However, with a smile on his face, Ling Tianyu didn't deny it nor confirm it.    

    

Just at this moment, Li Yiru's heart was filled with Ling Tianyu's figure. As she walked, she couldn't help but reveal a sweet smile.    

    

However, upon entering the meeting hall, the sweetness instantly disappeared. What met them was a basin of ice-cold water.    

    

"Yiru, I'm sorry. It was father who didn't have the ability. Father can't do anything about it now." Li Tianhao lowered his head. He didn't dare to look his daughter in the eye.    

    

"Is there no way to sacrifice everything for me?" Li Yiran asked.    

    

Li Tianhao didn't answer, but the elder was furious.    

    

"Impudent! As a son and daughter of the Li family, you should sacrifice yourself for the Li family. Besides, this is not like asking you to die."    

    

When Li Yi heard this, her body felt like it was struck by lightning. She didn't move for a long time, but her heart was crying. The family she hoped for was different. In the past, she had her parents' love and her brother's protection.    

    

Later on, her brother left and her mother passed away from longing. Although her father doted on her, he was unable to give her a complete home.    

    

Plus, he was the head of the family, so everything had to be done in the interest of the family. Li Yiran had given up all hope, she already felt that this family wasn't worth it for her to stay.    

    

"Hahaha …" She laughed, cold and forlorn.    

    

"Hmph, do you think that I, Li Yi, am a banner that can be manipulated by others?" I am flesh and blood, and I am not a victim of the family's interests. "    

    

Li Yi seemed to have completely lost her previous gentleness.    

    

Her face darkened as she said: "I will solve the Lee family's problem. From now on, I, Li Yiru, will never step foot into the Lee family ever again."    

    

With that, she placed the jade bottle on the table, turned around, and left.    

    

"Come back, you wicked girl!" The few elders shouted in unison, but Li Yi acted as if she didn't hear him, disappearing from sight.    

    

"Li Tian Hao, look, this is your daughter, hmph!" The Head Elder pointed at Li Tianhao and spoke as if he was venting his anger.    

    

However, they had also seen the jade bottle that Li Yiran had left behind.    

    

"What is this?" The Third Elder walked over doubtfully.    

    

"Hmph. This was left behind by that unfilial woman. It's most likely not some good thing. Throw it away." The Great Elder said.    

    

"Throw it away?" The third elder picked up the jade bottle and opened the lid.    

    

In just an instant, the fragrance of medicine wafted out from the jade bottle.    

    

"This, this, this …" The third elder's voice came out as he stared at the jade bottle.    

    

As for the others, they naturally smelled the medicinal fragrance.    

    

"Ol 'Three, what's in there?" Another elder asked.    

    

"Yes, it's a grade-4 pill. From the looks of it, it has reached the level of a 4-star master teacher." The Third Elder finally said it out loud.    

    

"What?! A grade-4 pill? You aren't mistaken?"    

    

This time, the Great Elder directly rushed over and snatched the jade bottle away.    

    

Even the guilty Li Tianhao came over. The 4-star pill was given to him by his daughter.    

    

"It's really a 4-star pill! How could Li Yiran have something like this?" Suspicion appeared on the faces of the few people present.    

    

"Could it be that a Tier 4 pill refiner really came to the Li family?"
