Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 288: In a Martial Contest, Losing One’s Head Just Leaves a Bowl-Sized Scar

Chapter 288: Chapter 288: In a Martial Contest, Losing One’s Head Just Leaves a Bowl-Sized Scar

Hiss!

When everyone saw clearly what Li Tianxiu was missing, all the people on the scene couldn’t help but draw in a breath of cold air.

Including the people from the Li Corporate Group!

Then, the next second, ninety percent of the seated spectators in the plaza suddenly stood up.

They seemed unable to believe that what had happened on the martial arts platform was real. One by one, they couldn’t help standing up to get a clearer view and to confirm it again and again!

Only after rubbing their eyes and looking several times did they accept that the occurrence was indeed true.

Boom!

The atmosphere instantly erupted into heated discussion!

"Li Tianxiu actually died! My god, this is too terrifying; how could Xiao Yu be this strong?"

"I was only hoping Xiao Yu would teach Li Tianxiu a lesson, or at best, beat him. But I didn’t expect that he would kill him... I feel like there’s a risk that we might become collateral damage!"

"It’s madness, sheer madness! Xiao Yu actually dared to kill Li Tianxiu. Doesn’t he realize what kind of consequences this could bring upon the Xiao Family?"

A group of people was shocked; they couldn’t fathom why Xiao Zhan wanted to kill Li Tianxiu.

Moreover, judging by his actions just now, it was clear that he was deliberately setting up Li Tianxiu to kill him; from the beginning of the fight, Xiao Zhan decided to kill Li Tianxiu.

Even for this, he purposefully moved to the edge, so he could distance himself from any possible help Li Cungao could provide to Li Tianxiu!

What on earth was Xiao Zhan thinking?

At the Li Corporate Group’s seats, Li Quanxian witnessed this scene, utterly incredulous.

When he saw Xiao Zhan’s initial actions of avoidance during the match with Li Tianxiu, he sensed that Xiao Zhan might be plotting something.

But even in his wildest thoughts, it was just Xiao Zhan defeating Li Tianxiu, never did he expect Xiao Zhan would be bold enough to directly kill Li Tianxiu.

He slammed the table violently and directly roared at the Xiao Family Head Xiao Tiance, "Xiao Tiance, you have such gall to allow Xiao Yu to kill my descendant!"

His words fell, and the surrounding noisy discussions instantly went silent.

At the same time, the Li family’s guards also sprang into action, charging into the martial arts platform.

It seemed like upon Li Quanxian’s signal, they were ready to execute every member of the Xiao Family!

On the Xiao Family’s side, Xiao Tiance and the others were not panicked at all.

The current situation was already within Hose’s calculations.

Xiao Tiance stood up, feigning ignorance, and said, "Family Head Li, what do you mean by that? It’s common for the younger generation to get into fights, and it’s normal for some serious bruises. How could you say it was my doing?"

Li Quanxian snorted angrily, "Hmph, if it wasn’t your doing, would Xiao Yu have the guts to kill someone?"

Xiao Tiance replied, "Courage resides within Xiao Yu himself; do you say he has it or not?"

Seeing how firm Xiao Tiance’s attitude was in speaking, Li Quanxian instantly understood that the entire Xiao Family was in on it, and their purpose was to kill Li Tianxiu!

Just then, Xiao Tiance added, "Besides, the competition doesn’t have rules against killing, does it? Your Li family seems to have killed quite a few before too. So, just because our Xiao Yu accidentally killed someone, are you preparing to exterminate our Xiao Family?"

"Are your Li family members human, and our Xiao Family members not? What about those who died from other families, are they not human either?"

In debating, with Hose’s blessing, it would be hard for Xiao Tiance to lose.

Outnumbered and standing on the shoulders of righteousness and the interests of the public, the Li consortium, no matter how powerful, must swallow this loss!

No, it is an overt loss!

Indeed, upon hearing this, the other families present began to discuss amongst themselves.

Li Quanxian couldn’t entirely hear what they were saying, but he knew they were definitely talking about him.

Li Quanxian cast a gloomy look around at everyone, those who caught his eye quickly lowered their heads or averted their gaze, not daring to meet his stare.

But as soon as Li Quanxian’s gaze passed, they started discussing again.

The pressure exerted by one man could never override the crowd, Li Quanxian said with a cold voice to Xiao Tiance, "Xiao Tiance, consider this grudge set. I hope the people from the Xiao Family who come out next all have the skills of Xiao Yu!"

With that, he waved his hand and the guards who had surged in retreated like the tide.

After Li Quanxian sat down, he immediately instructed the butler, "Check the background of this Xiao Yu and Ye Youyou."

The butler was puzzled, "Ye Youyou’s background has been checked. It’s very ordinary and normal."

"I’m telling you to check, so just check! Check thoroughly, turning everything upside down!" Li Quanxian’s face was veined with anger as he said, holding back the urge to explode.

At this moment, he was like a keg of gunpowder, ready to blow at the slightest spark!

Seeing him like this, the butler was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly and immediately went to make arrangements.

Seeing the state of affairs, the rest of the Li family dared not make a sound either.

Not until after a while did Li Quanxian’s facial color gradually stabilize, and his son dared to come forward and ask, "Father, why do we need to check on Ye Youyou and Xiao Yu again?"

Li Quanxian’s gaze was fixed on Xiao Zhan with a nasty look as he said, "The way the Xiao Family is handling this, it is clear they’ve planned to kill Xiao Yu. This Xiao Yu disappeared for three years, and after reappearing, not only has he awakened an SSS-grade talent himself, but his contract with the Artifact Spirit has also awakened as an SSS-grade Artifact Spirit."

"Not only that, but in a mere three years, he has grown to the realm where he can instantly kill a Fourth Grade Spirit Master."

"And what’s more, this Xiao Yu didn’t appear earlier nor later, but coincidentally showed up in the week before the martial arts competition. Don’t you think that’s suspicious?"

Linking it to the possibility of the Xiao Family being controlled by others, Li Quanxian seriously suspected that this Xiao Yu could be an impostor.

SSS-grade talent, SSS-grade Artifact Spirit; how many are there in the entire Federation? His Xiao Family has two, which sounds very fishy no matter how you look at it!

Upon hearing this, Li Quanxian’s son also immediately understood the situation.

After considering for a moment, he said, "If this Xiao Yu is an impostor, father, who do you think he could be?"

This question stumped Li Quanxian for a moment.

He had not thought about it that far.

"The Pickle Federation certainly doesn’t have such a person, all awakening records are in our hands, even if some were missed, it’s impossible to miss two SSS-grades at once, so they must be from another federation, and it is very likely from the Longxia Federation!"

The Pickle Federation and the Baka Federation are confederates; they wouldn’t do such a thing.

Only the Longxia Federation could be possible.

Considering recent events between the Pickle Federation and the Longxia Federation, Li Quanxian’s eyes suddenly brightened; he seemed to understand something, and the chaotic thoughts in his mind cleared.

"Go, have them investigate the Ye Family, especially the Ye Family’s Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong, check their current whereabouts!"
