Two Faced World

News spread fast but rumors spread faster, by the time it was next morning before Li Jie could even wake up, everyone in the whole continent became aware of the news that the eldest young master of the Li family is a cripple.

While some felt pity and disappointment towards Li Jie, some were glad and grinning to their heart's content, after all, who doesn't like to feel superior and now that everyone has come to know that someone who was born with a golden spoon with an extremely high status can't even cultivate and that they were better than that person even the ones who had low-level bloodline felt superior at that moment.

The ones, who were most disappointed were members of the Li family in the training hall of the Li family where the young generation and most mid-level fighters (Grand-master stage to Essence gathering stage) train,

"Ugh I can't believe that our Li family has to be so unlucky to get a crippled young master, now how will I ever even show my face outside," said one of the fighters, "Yes, what a drag to have such a waste young master,I think that the title of young master should be given to Li Cheng, grandson of the great elder, he has the talent and disposition to be the young master of this clan."

"heh if you don't want your head to roll, then I recommend you keep quiet" scoffed another young man, looking at this scene, the servants cleaning the area sighed and felt pity because their young master was an intelligent and kindhearted kid,

Who treated even the servants of the Li family with respect, they didn't like it how everyone, the same people who treated their young master with kindness are now talking bad about their young master after he was considered cripple.

Suddenly there was a large blast with a bang at the center of the training ground where everyone lost their footing and felt the whole world turn upside down, blood started coming out of some people's mouth, there was a huge amount of dust blocking everyone's sight at the center of the stage after some moments a figure's outline could be seen clearly and it became clearer by the minute and,

When the figure could be seen properly, everyone at the training ground got their tongue-tied with fear and dismay, at the center of the training ground there was the Li family patriarch Li Wei, standing majestically with the whole ground under him which had spiderweb-like cracks and some debris, gravel and dust can be seen on the whole area circling the Li family patriarch.

The Li family patriarch looked at the first person who started badmouthing the young master "there's no need for warning here, any member of Li family tarnishing the image of Li family by insulting the eldest young master is a traitor and will be punished by death",

after which he raised his hand pointing at the first person which glowed purple, seeing which that young fighter cursed himself for his big mouth, right at that moment an old man surrounded by two other elders beside him, came beside the fighter and supported him in getting up and then looking at the patriarch with a questioning tone "Patriarch why are you punishing this promising young man so harshly".

"Li Mu, why are you stopping me?, do you also agree with what they say?" asked the patriarch with a pressing tone towards the great elder whose name was Li Mu, hearing which made the great elder's face down and felt humiliated,

"Patriarch, it's not about whether I agree or not with what they say, but punishing this harshly for just some gossip is a little too extreme don't you think", snorted the great elder after which he signaled the other two elders to which they both nodded and said,

"I think patriarch you are not able to bear the weight of the seat of the head of Li family, a patriarch is someone who first looks at the interest of the whole family not his own family, a patriarch can't be selfish or else everyone in this family will revolt and leave the family if this action is continued.

Listening to the words of the two elders, some started nodding and started raising their voice "Yes patriarch you should resign and pass this distinguished responsibility to the great elder, who is partial with his judgment, has a strong sense of responsibility and most importantly his son is extremely talented, chivalrous and a dragon among men", said one of the elders present.

While some started to worry for the patriarch who was getting slandered by some of the Li family members and more worried for their young master who hasn't even woken up yet.

The Li family patriarch looked at the great elder sighing and some youths of his family who were defying him to the utmost, he didn't want to do any of this but he was instructed by his wife to do this for the betterment of his son's future, he wanted to not hurt his own family members but after hearing their slander against his innocent son who hasn't even woken up yet to hear all of this,

his gaze became cold with a chilly murderous aura and he looked at the great elder and all those who were in the great elder's support and said in the most horror bone-chilling tone "are all of you done!!!"

suddenly the whole atmosphere became chilling and pressing not even one person able to lift their heads everyone rooted at where they stood, not even having the strength to remove themselves from such pressure, the most surprising thing was that even the great elder and the other two elders were in the same position as others,

they were horrified by the fact that even with their cultivation and seniority, they couldn't move an inch!

Li family patriarch lifted his palm this time which and made a motion from up to down towards the two young fighters who insulted the young master, and suddenly they turned to paste,

seeing such a scene in the middle of the training ground everyone felt a shiver in their bone, then the Li family patriarch looked at another young fighter who compared the young master to the son of great elder, he was also turned into a meat paste with a wave of his hand,

finally, when the great elder couldn't hold in the humiliation that he was facing "Li Wei have you turned mad, for your waste of a son will you destroy the whole Li family" with his aura rising, resisting the pressure created by the patriarch.

Li Wei's face turned furious listening to the ramblings of the great elder and suddenly punched towards the great elder who was little far from him but suddenly he was attracted and couldn't control his movement then he noticed that the patriarch's fist was glowing with a purple light.

He tried to use his powers but couldn't stop his body from getting pulled towards Li Wei and suddenly BAM!!! a very tightening fist landed on the great elder's face which got caved in, the great elder lost his consciousness the moment the fist landed on his face and his whole body just fell to the ground, following which there was a pin drop silence in the whole area.

The Li family patriarch then looked at everyone and then said in a pensive expression "If any member of the Li family is feeling, that they don't want to stay in the family for a while then they can leave, after getting their cultivation crippled!!!

Which made everyone quiet even in their hearts, seeing this situation, the Li family patriarch remembered something, as the ancients used to say,

"Actions speak louder than words."
