Chapter 147: Where should we go, and whose blood should stain the earth?Within the Li family residence, everyone gathered in the ancestral hall. Beneath Li Wei's ancestral tablet, they had placed the Pig Demon King's memorial tablet.

Li Yaotie held his wife, Bai Rourou, in his arms. At this moment, Bai Rourou no longer had any tears, because—

Outside the ancestral hall, there was a line of characters. It was a message left by the ancestral tablet as it soared through the sky, imbued with spiritual energy! seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

[It should be the enemy who grieves]

Yes, why should we grieve?

"The intelligence reports said that Old Pig fought his way back, killing everyone who stood in his path."

Li Yaozu, carrying his sword case, approached. Looking at his younger brother and sister-in-law, it was the first time he had seen his brother so sorrowful. He was equally filled with rage. When he saw Old Pig's body, he remembered the first time they met, his confusion then, and the respect he eventually developed for him. "Third Brother, Sister-in-law, we don't have time to mourn Old Pig's death."

"When we faced the Shancai Monk, Old Pig didn't retreat a single step. When our family faced difficulties, he was always willing to lead all the beasts of the Silver Iron Forest to our aid. Now it's our turn. With Old Pig's fearless spirit, we should make the unknown enemy feel the pain that the Li family is experiencing now."

With Li Tianyi's music playing in the distance, Li Yaotie and his wife looked at their elder brother and the message left by their ancestor, and they nodded slightly.

Li Yaozu knew he had said enough. He quietly retreated into the darkness. The sound of a sword humming came from his sword case. He was like a sword hidden in the shadows, ready to strike at the Li family's enemies at any moment.

The couple huddled together, seeking warmth from each other in the dark and cold night.

A round bead with alternating yellow and black stripes appeared in Bai Rourou's hand. The bead glimmered with light. Her expression was filled with sorrow, but remembering her elder brother's words, she gradually calmed herself. "A Tie."

"Mm." Li Yaotie, who spent his days blacksmithing and was usually rough and gruff, now held his wife with the utmost care, as if cradling a fragile doll. His tenderness was evident; this was his way of comforting her.

Bai Rourou said, "I grew up alongside Old Pig. The first time I saw other people, I felt like an outsider and was afraid to integrate with them. It was Old Pig who told me that they were the ones who should be afraid. He said that his daughter shouldn't fear anything, and that he would always be there to protect me."

"From now on, he can no longer protect me. Will you beat your wife because Old Pig is gone, like Wang Ergou in the village?"

"Yes."

Li Yaotie grinned, his face illuminated by the candlelight in the ancestral hall, radiating warmth. "If you don't eat well, sleep well, and stay by my side forever, I'll beat you. But it would pain me more than it would pain you. So, for convenience's sake, I'll just beat myself to death."

Married for who knows how many years, Bai Rourou was still moved by her husband's affectionate words. In the past, she would have suspected him of having an affair. But now, Bai Rourou snuggled tightly into Li Yaotie's embrace. "Then I'm not afraid of anything anymore. Old Pig is dead, and Ancestor and Big Brother are right. Old Pig fought his way back; his death was not in vain."

"I shouldn't be sad, nor should I fear the days without Old Pig. If it were me who died, Old Pig would have led the demonic beasts of the Silver Iron Forest to avenge me."

"Now..."

Bai Rourou took a deep breath and slowly placed the round bead into her mouth. It was the Pig Demon King's blood core. A red light flickered in her eyes. "It's my turn to fight for Old Pig. I will avenge him with his spirit. I will also protect our children, just like he did."

In that instant, Bai Rourou's spiritual energy surged!

Li Yaotie held his wife tightly, his gaze fixed on the Pig Demon King's memorial tablet. "Father-in-law, may you rest in peace. I won't let anyone bully Rourou, and I won't let anyone bully our children. I will bring back the enemy's head and offer it as a blood oath to you."

[Your granddaughter-in-law, Bai Rourou, has consumed the second Demon King blood core. The blood core of the previous Silver Iron Forest Demon King is merging with the new one.]

[Gained trait: Will of the Pig Demon King]

[She will inherit part of the Pig Demon King's power.]

[Gained trait: Master of the Silver Iron Forest]

[By combining the blood elixirs of two generations of Demon Kings, her bloodline is changing. Her aura will suppress all creatures in the Silver Iron Forest!]

Seeing this couple, Li Wei was finally at ease.

He had been most worried about Bai Rourou being unable to cope, as she was the one who grieved the most. But Bai Rourou proved herself worthy of being a heroine of the Li family.

Outside the ancestral hall, the Seven Ironclad stood before the Primordial Blood Tree. Since their birth, this was the first time Li Wei had seen them so quiet. They also saw the message left by Li Wei and heard Li Tianyi's music.

Behind them stood dozens of their descendants.

Each of them had grown up on the Pig Demon King's back. They had all broken their arms while playing with him, and perhaps this was why they felt even more grief.

"Divine Tree."

In the depths of the night, they stood beneath the shadow of the blood tree. The distant candlelight cast a reddish glow upon them, making each of them appear as if stained with blood.

The eldest, Li Yundou, had a resolute expression. In the past, he might have been like a slow-witted black bear.

But at this moment, he, like all the children who grew up on the Pig Demon King's back, was like a ferocious lion awakened from its slumber!

"You said that the earth would be stained red next year. Please tell us,"

"Where should we go, and whose blood should stain the earth?"

Hearing this, As the crimson leaves and branches of the Primordial Blood Tree trembled, it opened its calm yet bloodthirsty eyes.
