What a joke, how could he publicly announce his misdeeds over the years.
Moreover, to accept legal sanctions on top of that, it was even more absurd.
"Seeing your reaction, you don't intend to follow my advice. Very well, then leave. I can only guarantee your safety for the next ten minutes. After ten minutes, it will be your own affair." Li Xuan naturally knew that Li Quan would not agree so easily.
These people were accustomed to being overbearing. If they were to submit so readily, it would be a waste of Li Xuan's preparations.
"Then I'd like to see if what Master is saying is true. Go!" Li Quan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and immediately turned to walk back inside. At this moment, Li Quan naturally did not dare to stay outside.
Although he appeared not to believe Li Xuan's words on the surface, he still had some fear in his heart. What if it were true?
Li Xuan paid no attention to Li Quan's actions. He smiled, waved his hand, and said, "I will be here for two hours today. After two hours, I will leave this place. Go, go."
Li Quan frowned slightly at the sound, but his footsteps did not stop. After Li Xuan finished speaking, his pace even quickened. As the roller shutter door automatically lowered, Li Xuan's lips curved into a slight smile.
Inside the room, Li Quan held a towel to his mouth, while the other four sat around the table, looking at each other. At this moment, none of the four dared to speak.
"Watch the time!" Li Quan glared at the four, then rinsed the towel again. The bleeding from his broken front tooth had finally stopped. The four people at the table immediately took out their mobile phones.
"Quan... Brother Quan, three minutes left," a man said tremblingly.
"Wait," Li Quan said after a moment of silence, then sat on the sofa to wait.
Time gradually passed. Describing the state of mind of Li Quan and the other four as enduring each moment as if it were a year would not be an exaggeration. In just three minutes, even Li Quan's forehead was beaded with sweat. Every second was an ordeal for the five of them.
Boom!
As Li Quan and the other four looked at the time on their phones, a powerful force suddenly struck them. The bodies of the five were instantly crushed to the ground, unable to move at all. This bizarre and terrifying change instantly turned the faces of the four at the table pale.
Even Li Quan was looking around in terror, sweat pouring down his face like a waterfall.
"This lesson is not enough. Since you have done evil, you must accept the consequences. If this were not Huaguo, based on your actions, you would have already died. Oh well, I shall abide by the rules of this place."
Li Xuan withdrew his divine sense. The oppressive aura that was pressing down on Li Quan and the other four showed no signs of receding. Li Xuan then stood up and simply left.
Half an hour later, Li Xuan slowly arrived at the graves of his body's parents. Looking at the inscriptions on the tombstone, Li Xuan felt a strange surge of emotion.
Around the graves of Li Xuan's parents, traces of burning incense, candles, and paper money could be vaguely seen. In addition, the weeds around the graves were well-kept. Clearly, someone had been visiting the graves over the years. Apart from Li Weiye, there would likely be no one else.
"You gave birth to me, and in a sense, I am indeed your child. It is just that I had not recovered my memories then, otherwise, you would not have died so early. And if it weren't for you, my soul trial this time would have encountered problems. You deserve this kowtow."
Li Xuan said, then knelt down. He then lit the purchased incense, candles, and paper money, his expression solemn and reverent.
"Li Xuan, Uncle was worried you were going to find Li Quan and the others, so you were here." Just as Li Xuan lit firecrackers, Li Weiye's figure also came quickly down the path.
"Uncle, you're here," Li Xuan turned and smiled at Li Weiye, then said, "I told you last night that I would come to pay respects to my parents this morning."
"It's what a child should do," Li Weiye nodded at the words and then looked at Li Xuan's parents' graves with emotion. "Over the years, every Qingming Festival, I would come to pay respects to them for you and clean up. Of course, this is also my atonement."
"Uncle, it's not your fault about the house. And soon, the house will be back," Li Xuan stepped forward, patted the water droplets on Li Weiye's body, and said with a smile.
"Li Xuan, I've come to terms with the house issue. And it's been so long, it's hard to get it back even through a lawsuit. It's clearly written in black and white, and I'm not legally illiterate, I understand. So Xuan, you must not go find Li Quan. Otherwise, how can I face your deceased parents?" Li Weiye said immediately.
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I'll be mindful. Uncle, you should go back first. I'm going to buy something on the street and I'll be back soon."
"Then... alright. Er'er, absolutely do not do anything foolish," Li Weiye still said worriedly.
After saying this several times, Li Weiye finally turned and left under Li Xuan's gaze.
"To make honest and kind people so afraid, this world ultimately has its ways of bringing good and evil to light. Hmm, it's been almost an hour now, they probably won't last much longer."
Li Xuan sighed slightly, then glanced into the distance before heading towards the street.
Dongyang Street, house number 56.
"Brother Quan, what should we do? Could it be that what that Master said is true? Otherwise, why would we be like this?" After nearly an hour had passed, the four people inside could no longer endure.
Even though they were lying on the ground, they still felt as if Mount Tai were pressing down on them. Their clothes were soaked with sweat, but they had no strength to resist.
"Cough cough... Earlier, I thought he was just putting on a show, and that he had done something on the street. But now it seems that it might all be true. Oh well, if we don't want this to continue, we can only ask him for help."
Li Quan coughed lightly and then said reluctantly.
If, as that person had said, they would later be stiff-limbed and unable to move, and eventually confined to their beds, Li Quan found the mere thought terrifying. He knew very well what he had done over the years. By then, he would probably only be waiting for death.
"But we can't even get up, how can we ask that Master for help?" a man said in panic.
"If you can't get up, can't you crawl?" Li Quan was already frustrated. To have become like this for no reason, and to hear the complaints of the four at this moment, he shouted loudly.
As the words fell, Li Quan twisted his body and began to crawl towards the door. The other four, seeing this, fell silent and dared not say more. But then, they also began to crawl, bit by bit, towards the door, just like Li Quan.
"Since ancient times, evil people have always met their match. The ancients did not deceive me. After this matter is resolved, the work of popularizing law will likely have to be done by the relevant departments."
Li Xuan, walking towards the stall, sensed something and then smiled, murmuring to himself. He then sat on a chair, his gaze fixed on the roller shutter door, waiting.
At this moment, Li Quan and the five had crawled to the door. Li Quan fumbled in his pocket for the remote control and pressed it.
As the roller shutter door opened, Li Quan and the five once again drew the attention of pedestrians on the street.
If it weren't for Li Quan's notorious reputation, someone would have stepped forward to help them up. But at this moment, Li Quan and the five no longer cared what people were thinking as they looked at them. They cast a quick glance and then shouted loudly in the direction of Li Xuan.
"Please, Master, save us."
