Chapter 623 A Deterrence

"Li'er." Qin Yi and Ruan Lufei called out softly as soon as they saw their daughter.

"I came here to tell you that I already have a new partner. Even though our relationship is limited to dual cultivation partners, I feel comfortable being with him, so you should stop thinking about marrying me to another man. Besides, I want to tell you that you should sever ties with the Gu Clan or any other clans that have connections with the Dark Moon Sect."

"We-"

"You don't need to bother denying it, especially since the Gu Clan is one of the sect's founders. I'm not a stupid girl like you think all this time, and I am fully aware that you have ties to that heretic sect." Qin Yi and Ruan Lufei were speechless in response to their daughter's words, and Qin Li then conveyed Chen Li's warning to them. "Even though I hate you two because of how you treated me, you two are still my parents, and I don't want you guys to die. That's why I will warn you for the first and last time, and it would be better if you listened to me, or you will die along with all the other members of your two clans."

"What do you mean by that, Li'er?"

"Isn't the meaning of my words clear, Mother?" Qin Li responded with a shake of her head. "I don't care about the others, but you guys are my parents, so sever ties with the Dark Moon Sect and move to another region, or you will both die."

After she said that, Qin Li left the punishment hall, especially since she was too fed up with them, leaving Qin Yi and Ruan Lufei wondering about the identity of the person who wanted to kill them. However, she did not return to Chen Li's residence, and she went to see Diao Wudie instead.

Li Jingyun had already arrived at the disciple peak, meeting Wu Laochen and Ruan Dongcheng. "Where is Gu Jiao?"

The two male disciples were surprised by Li Jingyun's question, but they immediately shook their heads at him before Wu Laochen told him. "We went to different places a week ago, and Gu Jiao went to the Eastern Region to follow Long Wang, but she disappeared, and we couldn't contact her to this day, so we thought that he had captured her. We tried to investigate his residence, but our senses couldn't penetrate the barrier there, so we couldn't confirm where he locked him up."

"Hmm?" Li Jingyun was really shocked to hear that. "Did you two report Gu Jiao's disappearance to Gu Ya?"

Li Jingyun's knowledge of Gu Ya surprised both men. "Uncle Gu told us that Gu Jiazhen would come here to take Qin Li back to the western region, and he asked him to look for Gu Jiao's whereabouts as well."

"What have you done to Hua Gaoyun and Li Jingyun, Big Brother? Bei Yudie asked curiously, but she already knew that those two would definitely not fare well, especially after she saw Chen Li's clone evil smile.

"Hahaha." Instead, Chen Li laughed heartily and shook his head. "You guys will find out tomorrow, so you don't need to be curious. As for Sheng Du, I will deal with him myself when my real body returns, but I will provide a deterrent to him for now, and I hope he can rethink his decision, or else I will kill him."

After he said that, Chen Li's clone released his deathly killing intent, leaving Diao Hudie and Shou Xiang completely shocked. Even though he didn't direct it at them, they could still feel the horror of his killing intent, which made them feel cold down their spines.

Sheng Du was forced to crawl on the ground under the pressure of Chen Li's clone killing intent, and his breathing became very heavy. Cold sweat covered his body, and the ground beneath him began to crack, causing the disciples who walked past to feel confused at his sight. 'Damn it! Was this really the guy killing intent? How can an inner disciple have such a deadly killing intent? I've once experienced Sect Master Yueyan's killing intent, but hers wasn't as deadly as this one.'

Some of those who knew Sheng Du tried to approach him, but they were knocked back by Chen Li's clone, and he warned them through voice transmission not to interfere in their affairs.

Quickly, hundreds of disciples began to crowd the area. They kept wondering about the problem between Sheng Du and Chen Li, especially since no other disciples knew about his relationship with Qin Li.

Seeing how crowded the place was, Yang Hao and Cai Yan, who wanted to meet Chen Li, immediately abandoned their intentions and decided to wait in the distance. 'It appears that the man is looking for trouble with Brother Chen's wife.'

'En.' Cai Yan agreed with him. 'It appears that a woman is the root of their problem.'

'He is indeed strong, with his cultivation already at 8th Stage Earth Realm, but he is committing a big mistake if he seeks trouble with Brother Chen, let alone if he does it for the sake of a woman, especially since no woman will be able to leave his side once she fall for him.' Yang Hao then turned to his wife. 'Honestly, I still find it hard to believe that you didn't fall for his charm, wife.'

Cai Yan smiled when she heard that. 'I don't know about it myself, but I've never felt attracted to Chen Li since we first met. Even when I met him again after he became a cultivator, I still didn't feel attracted to him.'

'Haha.' Yang Hao laughed and hugged her waist. 'That's why I'm grateful that you are willing to be my wife, and I'm sure you will be faithful to me.'

'That's for sure.' Cai Yan nodded with a smile.

However, their closeness made Huo Rui, who was standing on the tree behind them, feel jealous of Cai Yan, especially since Yang Hao continued to ignore her.
