Chapter 192: Li Family’s Fifth Generation"So, we still have to leave our homeland?"
Li Wei sighed deeply. Admittedly, they had caused great carnage in the Azure Cloud region this time, their actions shocking the world, but the region was indeed filled with danger.
Before this, the family had fought for revenge. Now, they were striving for the allure of returning home.
Li Wei also saw the fourth generation of the Li family descendants, at the time of separation, returning to their ancestral home one by one. They knelt and bowed before the Pig Demon King's grave in the back mountain, recounting their experiences over the years, then departed one after another.
It was evident that with their enemies eliminated, they had also let go of the hatred in their hearts.
Li Wei was relieved about this.
As their ancestor, he hoped that each of his descendants could live a happy life.
If it weren't for unavoidable circumstances, no one would enjoy fighting and killing. After all, his descendants were all kind-hearted people...
[Special Event - Li Tianming's Offering]
[Your descendant, Li Tianming, hasn't sensed your presence. He believes that he must have killed too few people lately and disappointed his ancestor. He has decided to take the Drunken Madman to Qingluan Mountain and drench the ancestral tablet with the blood of his enemies every day to win your favor.]
"You brat, you just had to trigger this bizarre special event while I was having a moment of reflection, didn't you?"
Li Wei grimaced and switched the computer screen to the Li family estate.
...
[Li Family Estate]
"Not bad."
Looking at the development of the Li family estate, Li Wei finally relaxed. Over the years, the estate hadn't slowed down its development despite the Li family's absence.
Green Valley Town still formed a semicircle, encircling the estate along with the Silver Iron Forest, everything well-organized and orderly.
Now, there were spiritual fields everywhere. Over the years, the Li family had given Huang Xiujin a considerable amount of spirit stones. Huang Xiujin was a man of his word, and all those spirit stones had been used to purchase various things for the Li family.
The entire estate was brimming with spiritual energy.
At this moment, Huang Xiujin was standing in the center of the courtyard with the six children of the Li family's fifth generation.
The Primordial Blood Tree had returned to the Li family estate overnight!
[The Primordial Blood Tree cherishes old ties. It refused Li Yaoqing's tempting offer of ten fresh corpses every day from the Thunderfire Cave and requested Li Dalong to bring it back to the family estate. Overnight, its roots reached ten li (about 5 kilometers) deep into the ground beneath the estate.]
"Grandpa Huang, come quickly and see! I peed here yesterday, and today, such a big tree has grown!"
"...."
Huang Xiujin had a strong impression of this tree!
He had seen this thing the first time he came to the Li family estate. Back then, it was still a Blood Spirit Fruit Tree. Now... he had heard news from the outside that at least a million lives lay beneath the roots of this tree.
Nothing had deviated from his prediction all those years ago. This tree could at least reach the Sixth-Grade level, but he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.
Just as Li Kuangtu was rejoicing that his urine had seemingly watered a towering tree, and Huang Xiujin was lost in thought...
The tree's shadow swayed, and a face materialized on the Primordial Blood Tree. This aged face opened its crimson eyes!
"Ah! A monster!"
Li Kuangtu was so frightened that he clung tightly to Huang Xiujin's leg.
"A child of the fifth generation of the family, the youngest, Li Kuangtu."
A bloody glint flashed in the Primordial Blood Tree's eyes. It sighed and said, "I have seen it. You are a coward. Perhaps sending you to the Cloudsea Pavilion was the wrong choice. Excessive pampering will only lead to your downfall. However, you will be a benevolent family head."
"Kuangtu is not a coward, he's not!"
The frightened child, his eyes still pure, looked up with a stubborn expression.
This caused Huang Xiujin to frown. "Divine Tree," he questioned, "what do you mean by that? I, Huang Xiujin, assure you that Kuangtu grew up listening to the stories of his elders. He will not disgrace the Li family!"
The Primordial Blood Tree didn't respond.
It looked at the other children, who were somewhat afraid.
"Li Kuangming," it said, "you grew up in the Gu family. You are also the last hope for the Gu family's future. One day, you will return."
"Li Kuanghua," the tree said, "the Hundred Fists Sect has caused you much suffering since childhood. I have seen your future."
Looking at the young girl among the six children of the Li family's fifth generation, the Primordial Blood Tree's eyes fixed on Huang Xiujin. "Tell your story to this friend," it said. "He will take you back to the Hundred Fists Sect. Good and evil will be repaid."
As the little girl with braided hair recounted her story in the Hundred Fists Sect, she described how her wet nurse had poked her with needles since she was a child and called her a "Li family bastard" every day.
Huang Xiujin made a quick calculation with his fingers, then picked up Li Kuanghua. "Don't worry," he said, "you're not some little bastard. Your Grandpa Huang will take you to deal with the Hundred Fists Sect."
Little Li Kuanghua pursed her lips. She didn't know what "deal with" meant, but she knew it couldn't be anything good. She shook her head and said, "No, Grandpa. Sect Master Uncle is very kind to me. And Nanny..."
Huang Xiujin listened quietly.
Combining that with his calculations, he roughly understood the reason. Li Kuanghua's wet nurse mistakenly believed that Li Kuanghua was the illegitimate daughter of the Hundred Fists Sect's Sect Master. Under the Sect Master's wife's instructions, she had always been malicious towards Li Kuanghua, even nearly drowning her. But at such a young age, Li Kuanghua didn't dare tell anyone outside.
He took a deep breath. Before leaving with Li Kuanghua in his arms, he frowned and looked at the Primordial Blood Tree. "Divine Tree," he asked, "you can divine and calculate. I wonder if you can see mine?" Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
A cold breeze blew past.
The Primordial Blood Tree stared at Huang Xiujin's aged face and white hair, remaining silent for a long time. Finally, it uttered two words, "Ten years."
"Thank you."
Huang Xiujin, seemingly relieved, let out a hearty laugh and left with Li Kuanghua in his arms. Looking at the slightly frightened child, he said gently, "Child, Grandpa Huang will take you to get revenge."
