Chapter 289: Li Family’s Little Princess
Chapter 289: Li Family’s Little Princess
[Year 149]
In the center of the spirit lake that Li Wei had instructed his clan members to build, he sat cross-legged, comprehending the sparkling ripples on the lake's surface and the changes in the water day and night.
"Hmph, it infuriates me! What's so great about being a young master from Starfall Region? My parents already said that the Prince's Mansion is full of bad people. There's no way I'm going to listen to that old thief Feng and marry him!"
Hearing the murmuring.
Li Wei opened his eyes and looked at the woman beside the lake, kicking at pebbles - Li Changyao.
"Our family's little princess?"
Li Wei raised an eyebrow slightly. Back then, Li Dalong had said that Li Changyao would definitely grow up to be a beauty capable of overturning kingdoms, but that guy Li Dalong was always wrong. Li Changyao resembled Li Kuangren; both father and daughter had a very low-key appearance. However, Li Changyao had still inherited many of Feng Mi's good features—
A closeness to the earth, and a flat chest.
"Hmph, now Feng Qingyang wants to use our Li family again? After selling off his daughter, he doesn't even spare his own granddaughter."
Thinking about what Li Changyao had said, Li Wei looked at her personal experiences.
[From childhood, she was doted on by the family elders and spoiled by her older brother, but she was also deeply influenced by the family's teachings. Although she didn't know what the family had gone through these past years, and she didn't understand why the Wu Clan members outside were always so arrogant, she had inherited the family's pride and would always teach a lesson to any Wu Clan members she encountered.]
[At age 13, Feng Qingyang from the Prince's Mansion sent word, wanting Li Changyao to marry into the Feng family in the Qi Region for them.]
[At age 16, she was nearly abducted by experts sent by Feng Qingyang.]
[At Age 22, Mi Shufeng, the young prodigy of the Mi family from the Starfall Prince's Mansion, was willing to form a marriage alliance with the Feng family. However, unexpectedly, the younger generation of the Feng family had been mysteriously dying one after another these past years, leaving them with no successors. Feng Qingyang once again wanted Li Changyao to marry Mi Shufeng.]
[Mi Shufeng was unwilling to marry, but he was sent by the Mi family to personally visit the Li family's residence and meet with Li Changyao. Mi Shufeng, a seasoned veteran in the game of love, interacted with Li Changyao on multiple occasions. The more he was rejected, the more deeply he became infatuated with the ordinary-looking Li Changyao.]
"..."
Li Wei was silent for a long time before muttering, "Feng, you old dog, the lessons you've been taught over the years haven't been enough, and you still dare to provoke my Li family?"
He came out of seclusion.
"Whoosh."
He exhaled deeply and returned to the familiar room. Even inside the room, he could still sense the thunder brewing above the villa area. He frowned, "What kind of damn thunder tribulation is this? I have mastered the laws of the five elements of Heaven and Earth, yet the threat is still this great?"
He narrowed his eyes, paid it no mind, and put away the offerings that had piled up in the room during the two Grand Ceremonies into his storage ring. Then he had Yue Xian cook a meal. After eating, he went to the computer.
Ignoring the rest, he clicked on Li Changyao's avatar.
The Ancestor's spirit tablet appeared and wrote the words instructing her to go find Li Yaowen!
"Oh! Ancestor, the Ancestor has manifested!" Li Changyao had rarely seen the Ancestor's spirit tablet float like this. Seeing the words in the sky, she excitedly waved her little fists. From a young age, the stories she had heard the most were about the Ancestor.
Great-grandfather Yundou said that the Ancestor was extremely fierce. When he manifested in the past, he could open his giant maw and swallow eighty thousand Wu Clan members in one gulp.
Seeing the little girl's excited expression, Li Wei also smiled slightly. Look how well-behaved this child was. She must be impressed by his mysteriousness. Although this little girl was a bit naive from being overprotected, wasn't that how all the Li family members grew up?
"Do you feel it, Changyao? This is the Ancestor's charisma!"
While feeling delighted, Li Wei casually gave her a 'Pat from the Ancestor.'
Afterward, he clicked on Li Yaowen's avatar, signaling him to resolve this matter. Li Wei then casually drove around outside, traded for some things with Boss Qi, relaxed a bit from the prolonged stay in the game world, had some tea with the neighbors, and then returned home feeling satisfied.
Just as he was about to re-enter the game world, the phone rang.
Li Wei frowned. In the game, Li Changyao was already nearing the Dawn Headquarters.
"Hello? Hello, this is Li Wei." He said casually. He saw that it was Xiao Qingling's phone number.
He had barely finished speaking.
The voice on the other end of the line was somewhat subdued yet gentle, "Um... Li Wei, my brother told me to be nice to you and to ask you to report for duty soon. Are you busy with something at the moment?"
Li Wei was still paying attention to some of the interfaces.
That kid Li Tianming seemed to be killing people outside and had suffered some injuries. While using a skill to heal the 'Li Family Husky,' Li Wei pondered how he should respond.
On the other end of the phone, Xiao Qingling said, "Alright then, if you don't want to report for duty, then don't. There are plenty of people who would cherish this opportunity that you don't appreciate."
At this moment, Li Wei's face lit up with joy. In the event log, some of the children were making breakthroughs. Both Li Kuangren and Li Kuanghua had reached the Golden Core stage. Li Kuanghua's body seemed to have been affected by the flood dragon's blood, and coupled with her previous trait and her frenzied cultivation over the years, her Golden Core had reached the level of a Heavenly Core!
Hearing Xiao Qingling's words, Li Wei was even more delighted and said, "Thank you, you are truly understanding!"
"You..." Unexpectedly, the voice on the other end of the phone grew increasingly agitated. "Can't you see how rare an opportunity it is to join the Spirit Examination Team?"
Li Wei was checking Li Kuanghua's traits.
[Your descendant Li Kuanghua saved the Raging Sky Flood Dragon and earned its gratitude. She has acquired the trait: Flood Dragon's Favor.]
[Bathed in the blood of the flood dragon, her constitution and strength are increased by 20%. She has obtained a portion of the flood dragon's power, and her Golden Core has become even more condensed.]
[In order to prove that their generation are all warriors, Li Kuanghua cultivated frantically and acquired the trait: Daredevil Dame]
[She cultivates even more diligently, and her body refining speed is increased by 10%.]
On the phone, Xiao Qingling was furious, "Do you think you're a Nascent Soul cultivator already? How can you not value the resources of the Spirit Examination Team?!?!"
Hearing this, Li Wei understood. He said sincerely, "Thank you, Sister, but I'm a useless person. It's not that I don't want to go, but I know that using these resources on me would truly be a waste of society's resources. The old lady next door taught me since I was young that one shouldn't take advantage if they lack ability and shouldn't squander what they have. Therefore, I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy this. Please be sure to leave the resources for someone who can make good use of them. I was born ordinary."
Li Wei grinned. So, once one reached the Nascent Soul stage, the Spirit Examination Team's resources were no longer useful, so why bother going? He could sense that the thunder tribulation was approaching. As long as he could comprehend the power of the sun and moon, he could break through to the Nascent Soul stage! During these days, he could feel that although the Li family was currently very calm, with Xu Cuihua's breakthrough, everyone was preparing for their own breakthroughs and for battle.
As the Ancestor, he couldn't fall behind either. Every second counted!
Moreover, Li Kuanghua and Li Yaowen had already joined forces, discussing a great plan to give Feng Qingyang a taste of his own medicine!
He pondered for a moment.
Li Wei choked out, "Sister Xiao, please don't tell the teacher. I'm afraid he'll be worried about me. Please tell my successor that there is a future in the tomb. Please ask him to carry my hopes and serve society."@@novelbin@@
In the laboratory, Xiao Qingling stared at the phone in disbelief. Her eyes were slightly moist, "This child... I..."
"I was angry with him earlier, I... I'm really not human!"
In the room, Li Wei hung up the phone smoothly and powered it off. "Finally, I can focus on fighting alongside my clan again!"
His eyes turning white, the rested Ancestor returned once more to the home that truly belonged to him!
