Chapter 24 Come to the Door

To think he has the face to say that! Liu Yi sneered in his heart as he watched Old Liu retreating step by step. Then, his figure flashed and he appeared in front of Old Liu. Old Liu only saw a blur, and in the next second, a figure appeared in front of him.

“My good grandfather…” Liu Yi’s voice was deep and cold. He stared at Old Liu as if he was looking at a dead person, “Do you want to leave by yourself, or do you want me to send you?”

Boom! An overwhelming pressure pressed down on old Liu. He only felt that it was inexplicably difficult to breathe. Just as he wanted to say something, he felt as if he was being stared at by a tiger, and a deep fear emerged in his heart.

“No… There’s no need! I’ll leave on my own, I’ll leave!” After saying that, he took a step back half a meter, then turned around and ran out the door.

The remaining two uncles looked at Liu Yi as if he was a monster. They struggled to get up and did not dare to say anything else as they ran away without looking back.

Liu Yi didn’t stop them. He just stood there and watched them run away, further and further away until they disappeared.

Just as the three of them disappeared from his sight, Liu Yi’s tense emotions finally could not hold on any longer. He immediately let out a breath of relief, and the sense of powerlessness magnified. He collapsed to the ground. In his state of extreme anger, he had broken through his bottleneck and stepped into the beginner stage of the Qi-forging Realm.

However, because he had just broken through, he hadn’t mastered his strength yet. Just now, when he fought against the three elders, he seemed to be relaxed, but in fact, he had used up all his strength. Now, he had entered a state of spiritual power exhaustion, and his physical condition had become particularly unstable.

At this moment, Ye Yan was sitting at the table and stuffing his mouth with the buns when the mechanical voice of the system suddenly sounded in his head.

[Ding! Disciple Liu Yi has broken through to the first level of the beginner Qi-forging Realm. Host, please take a look.]

“What?” Ye Yan was dumbfounded. He didn’t

expect Brother Scar to break through so quickly.

This was because when they left the mountain, Brother Scar had just told him that it was

difficult for him to comprehend the technique. He had said that it would take him a long time to break through.

Could it be that he had secretly practiced at home? After much thought, Ye Yan still couldn’t figure it out. Ye Dahai even punched him twice on the grounds that he wasn’t concentrating on eating.

At the same time, on the muddy path, Old Liu and the two uncles were running with staggering steps. They fell with every step they took. They were so panicked that they didn’t even dare to look back because they were afraid that Liu Yi would catch up to them. When they finally ran back to the Liu residence, the three of them rushed inside in a panic.

“How is it? did you bring Qian back?” A deep voice came from inside the door, and a man with a strong and stocky build walked out. When the Liu family’s uncles saw who it was, they quickly howled, “Big brother! You have to help us get revenge!”

The man was the head of the Liu family, Old Liu’s eldest son, and Liu Yi’s eldest uncle. Due to Old Liu’s poor health in recent years, he had made his eldest son the head of the family so that the latter could adapt to the family affairs

in advance.

“What’s going on? Stop crying! What’s with the

injuries?” When Eldest Uncle Liu saw that his two younger brothers were injured, he frowned and shouted angrily.

“It’s Liu Yi!” The second uncle’s eyes flashed

with a trace of ruthlessness, “He appeared and stopped us from taking Xiao Qian away. He even threw us out!”

When Eldest Uncle Liu heard this, he looked up

and down at his second brother’s body, his face full of disbelief, “With your build, you can easily beat up Liu Yi. How did you get thrown out? Could it be that you backed out at the last minute?”

Old Liu sighed and slowly came up to explain, “My son, don’t get agitated. My second son is not lying. I don’t know what monstrous strength that brat Liu Yi suddenly gained today, but he managed to knock them to the ground with just a sway of his body. If I weren’t his grandfather, I might be lying on the ground now as well.”

Since even his father had spoken, it was hard to

say if the matter was fake. Eldest Uncle Liu immediately became angry, “What a bastard. He doesn’t even respect his elders. Bring me my stick. I’ll teach him a lesson!”

With that, he took the stick that Old Liu had used to beat him back when he was young, then left. The stick had been passed down for

three generations.

Back at Liu Yi’s house, after Liu Yi was exhausted, he asked Liu Qian to close the door and the three of them returned inside.

“It’s alright, I’m here,” Liu Yi touched Liu

Qian’s head and forced a smile, “They won’t dare to come again.”

Liu Qian was still a little scared, and she was

simply in a daze. It was only when she saw Liu Yi’s gentle smile that her nervous mood finally

eased. “I… I’m not afraid anymore,” Her body trembled slightly, “I’m not afraid of anything with brother here.”

Widow Liu sat at the side and looked at her two

children with a smile, but she felt a little empty inside. Looking at Liu Yi’s thin body, she wondered if she had owed him too much all

these years. “You’ve grown up… Xiao Yi…” After a long

time, Widow Liu finally squeezed out a sentence. However, her words were like a bolt of lightning on a clear day, stunning Liu Yi.

How long had it been since she last heard her

mother speak to her? A month ago? Or was it half a year ago? He did not know.

“Are you hurt?” Seeing that her son was just

sitting there, Widow Liu thought that he was still ignoring her. She smiled helplessly and couldn’t help but ask.

Only then did Liu Yi react. Although he was still a little uncomfortable with speaking to his mother, he still answered hesitantly, “It’s

alright, mother. They can’t do anything to me even if they come again.”

Widow Liu shook her head, “Child, how old are

you? Your body is so thin and weak, yet your uncle is so strong. Did you sprain anywhere just now? Let’s go to a doctor tomorrow to take a look.”

Seeing his mother so concerned about him, Liu Yi couldn’t help but feel touched. After a while,

he said, “Mother, it’s fine. I told you, right? That I’ve been cultivating with Brother Yan recently. When I was in a confrontation just now, I suddenly understood and the shackles in my heart were broken. I broke through directly.” Widow Liu was dumbfounded. She had never

thought that her son’s joke would come true. The conversation between the two was heard by Liu Qian. Her eyes rolled as she thought about something. Suddenly, she said, “Brother, I also want to cultivate. Take me with you. I want to become stronger and protect my mother and big brother!

Liu Yi looked at his sister and was about to say

something, but the next second, there was a sudden change!

“Bam!”

A loud sound was heard. The next moment, the gate of the courtyard seemed to have been hit by a strong impact and exploded into pieces!

“Who is it?” Liu Yi looked out of the door alertly. When the figure of the person appeared, his eyes almost popped out!

“My good nephew, you’ve done a good job. To think you even dare to hit your elders…” Eldest Uncle Liu walked in with a stick on his shoulder.

The loud noise disturbed many who all came

out to see what was happening, but when they

saw Eldest Uncle Liu, they were all shocked and didn’t dare to say anything. Eldest Uncle Liu was a well-known rascal in

the village. His strong muscles allowed him to beat up several big men, and no one in the village dared to talk back to him. When Liu Yi saw the person who had arrived, he knew that things were not looking good. Even after he

had broken through, it was impossible for him to fight against his eldest uncle! When Eldest Uncle Liu entered, he didn’t say anything. He simply picked up the stick and

charged toward Liu Yi, “Kid, let me tell you what it means to respect the elderly!” Liu Yi was shocked. Just as he wanted to raise

his hand to block it, he realized that he could not exert any strength at all. The stick was fast

and went straight at his abdomen.

“Bang!”

“Ah!”
