You can't admit defeat even if you die, because to admit defeat is to lose your life.
With this belief, Li Hong would rather die in Xuanji's hands in a battle than be surrendered to his enemy without mercy.
Those few people back then were just ordinary warriors, but they didn't expect to have a disciple like Long Ao. Li Hong was extremely depressed. Since he came into contact with cultivating immortals, he has four attributes of spiritual roots. Since he joined the Tianji Sect, even though he is known as the Tianji Sect, It is not an exaggeration to say that a genius comes once in a thousand years.
However, the disaster turned out to be because of an old debt from that year, which forced him to turn against his boss Xuanji.
In an instant, Li Hong thought a lot in his mind. He was unwilling to give in, absolutely unwilling to give in. Under the influence of this strong willpower, Li Hong stood up again, which shocked the head Xuanji into a cold sweat.
Xuanji felt a little frightened in her heart. The sworn brother in front of her had already reached the middle Nascent Soul stage when he was still in the Golden Core Stage. It was because of his talent and diligent cultivation of willpower that he became his brother.
Over the years, under his care, he has grown too fast, and he has made great contributions to the Tianji Sect's control of three cities in these years.
However, now the form is not up to anyone!
If he is not handed over, I am afraid that Long Ao really has the strength to bring the Tianji Sect to the point of extinction, because after investigation, it was found that Long Ao was a warrior more than ten years ago, but now he is a sword in the late Yuanying period. Cultivation, this speed of cultivation is not an exaggeration even if he is known as the best in Kyushu.
"Brother Li, please stop struggling! Although I am in the same cultivation level as you, three elders of the late Nascent Soul who are approaching their end have passed on all their cultivation levels to me. Although I have not yet advanced, my strength is always better than yours. You are better than me. If you continue to struggle like this, you will only die!"
Xuanji sighed, feeling a little unbearable when she saw Li Hong covered in blood.
Once upon a time, this little brother had accompanied him for more than a hundred years. The two of them had never been so high-spirited back then. Unfortunately, just when they were about to make a big move, Long Ao came to ask for someone.
"Brother! Stop talking. When we brothers fight, I would rather die by your sword than be killed by that Long Ao without any help! Don't be merciful. If you have the strength, then behead me. Give your head to Long Ao!"
Li Hong gritted his teeth and said, while speaking, wisps of bright red blood spurted from his mouth. It seemed that he had reached the end of his strength, but his willpower was still as strong as ever. This strength even made Xuanji a little scared.
"Okay! Brother! I will make it happen for you! If you can defeat me, from now on, you will be the head of the Tianji Sect, and everything will be decided by you! If you die, I will dedicate your head to Long Ao to resolve the problem. Don’t worry about this catastrophe, I will take good care of your child, I promise!”
The tone of Xuanji's words seemed extremely serious. Not only the two of them, but also the witnesses in the Tianji Sect had tears in their eyes at this moment.
"kill!"
Xuanji knew that Qingchen was waiting for her answer, so she rushed forward without hesitation and slashed Li Hong's head with a sword, preparing to kill him!
"Ouch!"
In a situation where death is inevitable, there is only one fight!
Li Hong roared violently and used all his strength to resist Xuanji's sword.
boom!
Li Hong was knocked back nearly a hundred feet and fell to the ground covered in blood, but he struggled to get up again.
"I can't kill you if I don't believe it!"
The sympathy in Xuanji's heart gradually disappeared, and a trace of cruelty appeared on her face. Everything was for the sake of the sect, and now Li Hong must die!
Time and time again, no matter how powerful Xuanji was, Li Hong still took Xuanji's sword moves, and each time he took them, his body injuries became more serious.
Finally, after Xuanji knocked Li Hong away, she kept moving and her second sword struck like lightning.
At this time, Li Hong had not been able to get up from the ground. Knowing that he would die, he suddenly let out a roar that shook the sky. The strange thing was that after this roar, Li Hong suddenly felt a huge and unspeakable spiritual power in his body.
At this moment, even Xuanji felt the change in Li Hong. His aura suddenly increased several times, and she felt a strong sense of oppression on herself.
"boom!"
The swords of the two collided fiercely in the air, and the result surprised everyone.
Li Hong was not knocked away unexpectedly, but the one who was knocked away was Xuanji, who had always had the advantage.
Xuanji retreated more than ten feet, spit out a mouthful of blood, covered her chest with one hand, and looked at Li Hong with a shocked face, wondering why his strength suddenly increased sharply in this short moment.
"Could it be that he broke through, broke through the late Nascent Soul stage, and reached the cultivation level of the out-of-body stage?"
Xuanji was horrified and looked at Li Hong blankly. If he really broke through, she would definitely not be his opponent, and the position of the leader might have to change.
"Haha! Haha! God has been kind to me! He actually allowed me to break through at this time!"
Li Hong laughed wildly. The blood on his face made him look ferocious, but his aura became stronger and stronger. The injuries he suffered just now seemed to have healed due to his sudden promotion.
"Brother Li, have you really advanced?" Xuanji asked in shock.
Li Hong nodded and swung his sword fiercely at Xuanji. From a distance of more than ten feet, the sword energy made Xuanji retreat in fear. The power was too terrifying and could not be resisted by Yuanying in the later stage.
"Congratulations to the new head of Tianji Sect - Head Li!"
Xuanji felt bitter in her heart and had to say this. At the same time, she sent a message to Qingchen to cancel the original compromise plan and fight to the death with Long Ao!
"Congratulations to Master Li!"
The elders in the Nascent Soul stage all raised their hands in salute. Li Hong was originally the second person in Tianji Sect, but now he was promoted to the number one person, and he naturally won the support of everyone immediately.
Strength comes first. Li Hong has now reached the out-of-body stage strength, so he is naturally more supported by everyone. After all, Tianji Sect is now in the midst of a serious foreign invasion.
Everyone expressed their congratulations, but not many paid attention to the former head Xuanji.
When a new king succeeds to the throne, the king who steps down will of course lose the support of many people. Human relations are cold and warm, and the world is cold and hot, especially among immortal cultivators. Only now does Xuanji find that her heart is filled with a kind of jealousy and anger.
I originally thought that I would defeat Li Hong 100%, and then I agreed that whoever wins would be the leader, but I didn't expect that Li Hong was really a blessing in disguise, and he did it in a desperate situation.
