Chapter 686 Surrounded

Tang Lian smiled, looking at Li An with a pleading expression."We had no other choice but to resort to this!"Li An suddenly asked, "How do you plan to help the Asura Clan?"Tang Lian flipped his spatial ring, revealing a crystal-clear sphere surrounded by a faint aura of blood.He quickly replied, "Luck is not just a power, but also a supreme material.""This is the Killing Asura Great Source Pearl, forged using 2 million units of luck. It can hold hundreds of Killing Asura Dao Fruits, and can forge a Killing Asura Dharma Image of the 14th Heaven!""To create a Killing Asura Source Body, this is indispensable.""Our resistance cannot personally engage in combat, but we can use this as support to express our sincerity!"With that, Tang Lian tossed the pearl towards Li An.But something unexpected happened.Li An tilted his head slightly, brushing past the pearl without making any contact.This scene finally made Yao Yan, who had been holding back her anger, lose her temper."Li An, everyone knows you've achieved unparalleled merit, but is it necessary to be so arrogant?""The strongmen of the resistance army went through so many hardships to descend to the mortal realm just to help us, but you've had a dark face the whole time, as if someone owes you money. What are others supposed to think of us?!"Li An ignored Yao Yan's reprimand, continuing to stare at Tang Lian opposite him.Suddenly, his gaze fell on Yao Tianren beside Tang Lian, and he said, "City Lord, come here for a moment, I have something to say to you."Yao Tianren stood up and walked towards Li An.On the way, Yao Yan kept looking at her father, winking and expressing her dissatisfaction.Yao Tianren snorted coldly and said, "Get out, you have no right to speak here!"Yao Yan turned her head away, refusing to listen.At this moment, she noticed that Li An seemed to be acting strangely, stroking her father's arm.Her eyes widened suddenly, a series of outrageous thoughts surfacing in his mind.His love story with Shuangxue was all a lie, a facade!A facade about his sexual orientation!This pervert!“What are you doing!” Yao Yan shouted from the middle.But Li An met Yao Tianren's gaze, ignoring her.The two stared at each other for a long time. Yao Tianren seemed uncomfortable, swallowing hard as he looked at the hand stroking his right arm, and said, “Li Zun, what do you have to say?”Across from him.Tang Lian frowned and said, "Li An, why won't you accept the sentiments of my resistance?" Li An stood up, grabbing Yao Tianren with one hand and Yao Yan's neck with the other, saying, "I appreciate your kindness, but the mortal realm doesn't need your help." Yao Yan, unable to resist, was pulled up by Li An. Now, hearing his words, she couldn't help but ask, "Li An, what exactly do you want?"Li An calmly said, "Shh, don't speak yet.""Huh?" Yao Yan was startled.Li An's gentle eyes revealed an unusual charm."Ah." The little princess was immediately speechless, feeling as if she had punched a piece of cotton, and this cotton was warm and comfortable.Then.Li An walked towards the conference room door, leaving Tang Lian alone in the room.Suddenly, the aura of an array rose.Li An couldn't push open the door in front of him.Tang Lian's voice suddenly became hoarse, somewhat chilling."Why?" The three turned to look, only to see that Tang Lian's smile was gone, replaced by a chilling glint in his eyes.Li An sighed and put Yao Yan and Yao Tianren down.Yao Yan was somewhat bewildered, while Yao Tianren reacted strongly.His brows furrowed, as if immense rage was gathering between his brows, finally exploding with a roar!"You!" Yao Tianren abruptly turned and pointed at Tang Lian.Tang Lian, however, pointed dismissively.A luck bracelet suddenly appeared on Yao Tianren's wrist, surrounded by swirling luck."Kneel down." Tang Lian's words seemed to carry a divine power."Bang!" Yao Tianren's body involuntarily collapsed to his knees, cold sweat pouring down his body, his lips pale, his face filled with terror.Seeing the world turned upside down, Yao Yan trembled, murmuring, "What happened? What happened?"At that moment, the only man still standing before her said softly, "It's nothing."This not-so-heavy voice brought with it that strange power, easing Yao Yan's tension by a third.Suddenly.The world spun.Space shifted.The meeting room vanished.The three opened their eyes again, finding themselves in a lush, green backyard.Here stood an ancient tree, thousands of years old.Li An was intimately familiar with this backyard; it was his home in Dao Shi City.To be transported from Tang City to the border city in an instant—the strength of the opponent was unimaginable.Yet Li An remained unmoved, protecting Yao Yan and Yao Tianren behind him. He looked up and saw at least a hundred celestial beings dressed in black, wearing medals.With long arms and legs, they were easily identifiable.Each person exuded the aura of a divine being, surrounding Li An in the center, and their medals all bore the large character "Zuo" (Left).Furthermore, upon Li An's appearance, the power of these hundreds of divine beings connected, forming a large barrier. Vibrant light surged within the barrier, radiating a deadly aura.The truth was now clear.Tang Lian was not a member of the resistance, but rather from the Zuo Clan.Now, Li An was trapped, and he heard a desperate sob beside him."I'm sorry, Li Zun, I'm sorry... I didn't know... I didn't know... I was deceived..."It was the voice of Yao Tianren, kneeling on the ground.Although Yao Yan was arrogant, she wasn't stupid. At this moment, as if struck by lightning, her voice lost its spirit, utterly hollow: "The Zuo Clan?""The Zuo Clan of the Heavenly Realm!?"So, Li An had already seen through it.So, he was trying to take us away?But the other side was prepared, having moved the battlefield to Li An's home.Now, no one could come to his aid.The divine aura emanating from the hundreds of Zuo clan generals made the little girl tremble; the colorful barrier above her head blotted out the sky.She even found it difficult to breathe, feeling like a pig waiting to be slaughtered."Greetings, Master Zuo!" The voices of the hundreds of divine realm commanders were vast and majestic.Zuo Tianxing, however, remained expressionless, inwardly furious.So close.If Li An had touched that bead, he would have died.From beginning to end, if Li An's attitude had changed even slightly, if he had believed a single word he uttered, he would have suffered a fate worse than death, becoming a puppet of the Zuo clan, just like Yao Tianren.The Zuo clan possessed the strongest bewitching power in the world; they were the most terrifying cult in the world. Anyone who heard their voice and nodded would become their most loyal follower.He didn't even need to hear Zuo Tianxing's voice; he had already planted the seed of bewitching intent in Yao Yan. If Li An believed Yao Yan was Shuangxue, he was finished. In Zuo Tianxing's plan, the mission would be successfully completed if Yao Yan could successfully enter the First Research Institute and exchange three sentences with Li An.But he failed.Li An's Dao heart remained unmoved, like an indestructible ancient tree standing firm in the storm.Thinking of this, Zuo Tianxing, in a bad mood, slashed down the ancient tree beside him; just looking at it annoyed him.
