The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 293 Disposal
After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour and seeing that the old man remained silent and did not answer, Li Daoming knew that he would not reveal the location of Shenzhouzi.

Li Daoming was not disappointed about this. He was just trying his best. If it succeeded, it would be gratifying as it could solve a potential threat. If it failed, he would not care much.

"It seems that you are unwilling. There is nothing more to say. Do you want to continue to resist or commit suicide?" Li Daoming asked calmly.

"I have another question. How are you going to deal with the people of my Shenzhou Dynasty inside and outside the imperial capital?" The old man stared at the three people.

"They..." Before Li Daoming could finish his words, the Li family ancestor revealed a hint of ruthlessness and said, "If you are willing to tell us the location of Shenzhouzi, they can live, otherwise they will all be killed!"

Hearing this, Yao Chi Great Sage frowned slightly, she felt that this was a little inappropriate.

However, thinking that the ancestor of the Li family might want to use this to force the other party to reveal the location of Shenzhouzi, he did not refute.

But she also decided in her heart that if the ancestor of the Li family really wanted to kill everyone, she would definitely try to dissuade him.

The Emperor of Shenzhou is the emperor of the human race. He has quelled the dark turmoil and protected the people. Although the two sides are now enemies, their imperial inheritance should not be completely cut off.

And it’s okay for those within the imperial capital. Outside the imperial capital, there are no less than tens of billions of people in the Shenzhou Dynasty who have the blood of the Shenzhou Emperor. Very few of them can awaken the emperor's blood, and some are even just mortals. If they are all killed, it would be too much.

Hearing this, the old man's expression remained unchanged as he stared at Li Daoming closely.

He knew that the person who would ultimately decide the life and death of the people of the Shenzhou Dynasty inside and outside the imperial capital was Li Daoming.

If Li Daoming wanted to stay, the Li family ancestor would not object. If Li Daoming wanted to kill him, the Great Sage of the Yao Chi would not be able to stop him even if he wanted to.

"Kill those who are close to the Shenzhouzi lineage! Kill those who are hostile and hateful towards me!" Li Daoming said bluntly.

He knew that the Li family ancestor said that not only to force the old man to reveal the location of Shenzhouzi, but also out of his own conscience.

Rather than leaving these people behind, who might become hostile to the Li family in the future, it would be better to kill them once and for all to avoid bringing disaster to future generations.

But he has another opinion:

If the old man was willing to tell the whereabouts of Shenzhouzi and others, he would have told them long ago. Those people might have some status in the old man's heart, but they are definitely far inferior to Shenzhouzi and others. Trying to use this to coerce them is absolutely futile.

In addition, he felt that unless one had the ability to do things thoroughly, one should not do things too thoroughly.

What does that mean? If he now has the ability to destroy all the members of the Shenzhou Dynasty, along with the Shenzhou Ding, then he might be able to get rid of them all.

However, he obviously didn't have the ability! Even if the old man didn't want to die, he couldn't even keep him.

Since you can't do things completely, don't do things too thoroughly.

If he did things too drastically, the old man might not be able to wait for death peacefully. He might use the Five-Colored Altar to teleport away, and then secretly return to Beidou, and unscrupulously retaliate against the Li family before he died.

Although he is very old and his life span is not long, he is also a powerful being at the peak of the Great Sage level. The Taoist gods he has separated out are not something that cultivators below the Great Sage can resist.

If he sent out Taoist gods everywhere to attack and kill the Li family, then no one in the Li family would have to go out, and all their industries would be destroyed.

Even if we could catch his Taoist deity, it would be useless. If we lose one, he can always find another one.

However, he was not good at deducing and tracking the secrets of the universe. Even if he could learn it on the spot, it would not be possible to deduce and track a great sage in a short period of time.

He would probably have to wait until his lifespan ran out, but by then the Li family would definitely suffer heavy losses. In addition, he had just seen the reaction of the Yao Chi Great Sage. If he really chose to kill them all, the relationship between the Yao Chi Holy Land and the Li family would probably end here.

In addition, the many aristocratic families, dynasties and imperial dynasties in the Eastern Wilderness of Zhongzhou all have intermarriage, unless they are complete and mortal enemies like the Yin-Yang Sect and the Li Family in the past.

Even the Shenzhou Dynasty and the Li Family had had marriage alliances before.

So he would not kill them all at once. If he did that, what would happen to the men from the Li Family, the Great Xia Dynasty, and the Guhua Dynasty who married the women from the Shenzhou Dynasty, and the women who married the men from the Shenzhou Dynasty?
Moreover, the achievements of Emperor Shenzhou and the most crucial Shenzhou Ding also made him not want to go to the extreme.

After suppressing the Shenzhou Ding, he also thought about how to deal with the Shenzhou Ding in the future.

In his opinion, it is impossible to suppress it permanently, so the only two options are to destroy it or release it.

If it is to be destroyed, it is certainly impossible to do it now, but he will definitely be able to do it after he attains enlightenment. However, he feels that the Shenzhou Ding is after all an imperial weapon of the human race, and it may be of some use in the future.

As for releasing him, he would definitely return to the Shenzhou Dynasty, or even to the hands of the Shenzhouzi lineage. Although he was not afraid, when he thought about how the Shenzhouzi lineage had repeatedly caused trouble for him, he would never allow this to happen.

After much thought, he felt that it would be better to choose some descendants of Emperor Shenzhou who were close to the Li family, or even had Li blood, to rebuild the Shenzhou Dynasty, intermarry from generation to generation, change the surname to Li, and return the Shenzhou Ding to the Shenzhou Dynasty after he achieved enlightenment.

Of course, some ingredients must be added to prevent the Shenzhou Ding from being taken away by the Shenzhouzi lineage.

Therefore, he will not kill all the descendants of Shenzhou in the imperial capital of the Shenzhou Dynasty.

They will even train some of them, especially those with Li family blood, to revive the Shenzhou imperial blood in them and allow them to rebuild the Shenzhou Dynasty.

As for the original main lineage of the Shenzhou Dynasty, it is better for them to die completely.

With this thought in mind, Li Daoming couldn't help but set his sights on the old man in front of him.

Perhaps he could squeeze out the imperial scriptures and forbidden secret techniques of the Shenzhou Dynasty from him.

"I know you won't tell the location of Shenzhouzi and the others, so I won't threaten you with those people!"

"If Shenzhouzi and his men go into hiding and no longer oppose me, I will not bother looking for them. But if they still jump out and become my enemy, I will hunt them out and kill them all."

"The Emperor of Shenzhou has made great contributions to the human race, so I will not sever his imperial lineage and inheritance."

"I will find some descendants of Emperor Shenzhou in and outside the imperial capital who are worth training, and have them rebuild the Shenzhou Dynasty."

After saying that, Li Daoming fell silent!

"What do you want?" The old man looked at Li Daoming deeply and asked.

Although he knew that Li Daoming had other intentions, he was unwilling to let go of this life-saving straw.

He knew Shen Zhouzi's character well, and knew that he would definitely seek revenge on Li Daoming. In the future, the tribe members hiding in the secret place might be implicated.

If they were all destroyed, the inheritance of the Shenzhou Dynasty would be completely cut off.

Now Li Daoming wants to select some clansmen from inside and outside the imperial capital for training. That way, no matter what, he can ensure that the bloodline and inheritance of the Shenzhou Dynasty will not be completely cut off.

He couldn't refuse no matter what!
