Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

His patient and persuasive words caused a flash of resentment to appear in Gu Ruoxu's eyes.

"Following him is definitely not an easy job..."

Gu Ruoxu said something, hesitated for a moment, and then added, "But we can't afford to completely break off relations..."

"Just sideline him. As long as you old brothers unite, he can't make a difference alone. What use is a one-man show?"

Yang Lianlu smiled.

Gu Ruoxu nodded and said, "Actually, no one in our group listens to him anymore. It's just that Deng Huaigu is the most important founder of the Fudao Group. It's easier to do some things in his name."

"Did you get the cultivation technique? How was it?"

He asked again out of curiosity.

"Got it, it's really impressive."

Yang Lianlu said, "With this technique, Ruijie will surely shine brightly at the Mount Tai Conference, and the Li family will have no choice but to bow their heads!"

One of the most important reasons he went to great lengths to obtain this martial arts technique was to fight against the Li family!

He knew that there were only two places in the entire land of China where the Great Yu Cauldron was kept.

Mount Song, Mount Tai!

The next stop is Mount Tai, which is extremely important. If he can obtain the spirits of both cauldrons, he will become the most important favorite of those officials.

No one, not even the Li family, can compare to him. He will create his own era!

Therefore, he keeps the cultivation method he obtained from Li Lan a complete secret, and only he and Bai Ruijie are practicing it.

……

Li Shi.

Are you confident?

In the training ground, Li Chengyuan looked at his daughter Li Daojie and asked a serious question.

"It should be fine. Even if Bai Ruijie is strong enough, I can suppress him using the Blood Burning Technique!"

Li Daojie, drenched in sweat after just finishing a real battle, spoke with confidence.

"It's a pity that Li Lan actually ran away... Otherwise, the stuff extracted from his blood would indeed be useful."

Li Chengyuan sighed regretfully, then said, "At the Mount Tai Gathering, we can only win, we cannot lose!"

"We absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes with the other Great Yu Cauldron, otherwise our Li family will be eliminated—"

……

The Taishan Conference is about to begin!

The world is paying attention!

Today, information about cultivators is completely public on the global internet, and everyone knows that cultivators are the masters of this era.

This Mount Tai conference even featured live streaming across the entire internet, all aimed at stimulating public interest and understanding of the spiritual community.

Armored vehicles and fighter jets landed continuously at the foot of Mount Tai; all of the top dozen or so conglomerates in China had arrived.

The Li family, the Sanhe Group, the Chixue Group, the Zhong family, the Fudaozhe...

It was incredibly lively.

Li Lan and Xia Qingzhu followed Deng Huaigu out of the cabin and looked up to see Mount Tai towering on the plain!

Mount Tai is not actually very high, but because it is surrounded by plains, it is extremely conspicuous, like a large seal standing on a table.

With the revival of spiritual energy, Mount Tai now possesses an even greater sense of grandeur, shrouded in mist and smoke, mysterious and majestic.

Li Lan gazed into the distance, his Heavenly Eye slightly shifting, and saw that the area around Mount Tai was filled with a vibrant and humane atmosphere, and that "human energy" was still flowing in from all directions like trickles of water.

"A brilliant move, drawing crowds from all corners of the world?"

Li Lan pondered.

The hidden realm of Mount Tai has been nourished by countless acts of humanity throughout history, so the key to unlocking it should also lie in the spirit of humanity.

"The ultimate winner of the Mount Tai Tournament, though incomparable to the emperors of ancient times, will still gain top-tier popularity through global live streaming and other means, thus gaining access to the secret realm!"

Elder Deng spoke solemnly.

Li Lan nodded. In this world without an emperor, the spirit of humanity is like a chaotic tide. This method can concentrate "attention." Attention is essentially a concentration of popularity, so it can indeed enter Mount Tai.

"The Denglin that was transformed from Kuafu's staff is also in the Mount Tai Secret Realm. You and Qingzhu... should be able to go in."

Deng Huaigu's eyes were filled with anticipation!

Although Qingzhu and Li Lan have not yet set a wedding date, they are already a couple, and their fate is sealed. According to the ancestral marriage agreement, Li Lan and the others should be allowed to meet Deng Lin!

"This is Mount Tai... Brother Li Lan, when are we going to climb it?"

Beside her, Xia Qingzhu held Li Lan's hand and spoke with longing.

She eagerly anticipated doing anything with Li Lan, going anywhere—hiking, cooking, swimming, traveling…

Li Lan smiled and said, "Okay."

……

"All guests, please enter!"

People from all the major families entered the venue one after another.

At the foot of Mount Tai, a huge arena has been prepared, built entirely with the strongest materials, and surrounded by audience seats.

"For the sake of fairness, the Huaxia Alliance Conference will be witnessed by Mr. Morton, the Special Envoy of the Global Alliance!"

"welcome!"

The host spoke loudly, and in the guest seats, a middle-aged foreign man stood up. He was dressed in a suit and had blond hair, and he smiled slightly.

He was surrounded by the heads of various conglomerates, who were also present.

"There are a total of eighteen groups, with ten people in each group. All members must be under thirty years old and are not allowed to use magical artifacts or talismans. They must win by their own strength."

"The first place winner will receive the top spot in China within the Global Alliance!"

After a brief explanation of the rules, the battle quickly began!
