Chapter 0735: Parents' Matters



Chapter 0735: Parents' Matters

"The other Heavenly Emperor Bloodline had similarly placed a lot of importance upon this engagement. Additionally, it was coincidentally the case that there was a peerless beauty with both strength and looks in their clan. She possessed status and talent and thus the two clans saw this joining as a way to form an almighty alliance that benefited both. This matter was mostly orchestrated by the Dragon's Blood Lineage as they were the Mountain Ruling Lineage then, having significant control of the bloodline. Most importantly, Grandpa did not disagree to it. This was an important matter for the other bloodline, and the person Li Taixuan was to be engaged to was someone he was satisfied with. There came the problem..." Li Rouyun bitterly smiled as she looked at Li Luo.

"When your father heard of this, he was not happy. You can probably guess the reason. He had been cultivating outside the clan and had already met your mother. Your mother... was actually quite a renowned individual in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. She was unknown in the past and no one knew which clan or bloodline she had come from. However, in just a few short years, her reputation preceded her and even some of the geniuses reared by top tier powers were suppressed and crushed beneath her. I suppose she must have encountered some fortuitous event. She was a monstrous existence in her generation. Even with an ordinary background, she defeated all of the other geniuses with reputable backgrounds, which is something that we have to admire. Of course, it was probably because of all this that the top powers in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent felt immense dissatisfaction towards her and would often cause her trouble. There was an instance where she defeated a genius of the Dragon's Blood Lineage. Perhaps because that individual had infuriated her, she declared upon his defeat, ‘the supposed talents of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li do not amount to much.’ This caused shockwaves throughout the clan. As the situation within the clan worsened and got more raucous, Li Taixuan was eventually forced to take action. He was the most outstanding member of the entire younger generation, and even though the Dragon's Blood and the Dragon's Fang Lineages had some tension between them, they were ultimately still part of the bloodline. Tan Tailan's words were simply too humiliating, so he was forced to find her and, of course, defeat her. It was then that your father met your mother for the first time."

Li Luo blinked as he heard Li Rouyun recount the story, and a deep admiration for his mother grew in his heart. She was truly a fierce individual! She did not possess an influential background and yet she had overwhelmed all of the rich young masters of the continent who had resources poured into them... She was someone to be admired and an inspiration for everyone.

Although he already knew that his mother was amazing considering how suppressed his father was at home, this story only brought about even more praise for her.

"Thus, there were many within the clan that did not like her. Your grandpa was no exception... Still, this was not purely because of her lacking background, but she was instinctively born to be at odds with your family," Li Rouyun said with a complicated expression.

"What do you mean?" Li Luo felt a little puzzled. What sort of strange reason could it be?

"Do you know your mother's first resonance?" Li Rouyun asked.

Li Luo was a little surprised before he answered in shock, "Her first resonance is the ninth-grade Golden Winged Peng resonance, right?"

Ox Biaobiao chuckled. "The Golden Winged Pengs are also peak existences in the world. They are life and death nemeses with the Dragon Tribe, often feeding upon young dragons. The Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li has a trace of the Heavenly Dragon's spirit and thus have also inherited some of their habits. Thus, there is an innate revulsion towards Golden Winged Pengs, including your mother, who possesses the resonance."

Li Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was something he had never expected.

"Your father sought out Tan Tailan and the two dueled several times with no one gaining the advantage. In fact, this only served to bolster her reputation even more. Your father was, of course, a determined individual, unwilling to resign himself to defeat. He continued to struggle against her for a period of time. He didn't really win very often, but instead she won his heart... In the end, he even assisted your mother with beating up some of the troublemaking geniuses, and that included some from our clan..." Li Rouyun bitterly smiled.

Li Luo smacked his lips. His father was truly ruthless. He had basically surrendered himself to the enemy without much struggle. Despite the Golden Winged Peng resonance's influence, he still fell in love with her. Was that true love? Or Stockholm Syndrome after being beaten quite a few times...?

"In any case, this caused an uproar and everything was a mess. It was at this time that news of the engagement came. The other party did not reject the engagement to Li Taixuan either. Plus, you should know how charismatic and charming your father is. Your father, however, rejected this idea strongly. And to protest the decision, he left the clan and proposed to Tan Tailan in a high-profile fashion. This caused both clans to become furious. The other clan's leader personally came to our clan to demand an answer. Internally, the Dragon's Blood Lineage Chief was also frustrated and incensed. He directly hollered for Grandpa to meet him, and things were a disaster that day. The atmosphere was extremely tense, as though a bomb would go off at any point. Of course, in the end, the situation was resolved with force. Your dad was simply too special, having gained the personal recognition of the Ancestor and given a Heavenly Emperor's Writ. Thus, even the Mountain Ruling Lineage did not hold any sway over him. And the engagement was considered a failure and the relationship between our clans was significantly influenced." Li Luo nodded slightly. This was truly a mess as he had expected.

"Wait, then could it be that this was enough for that bloodline to chase down my parents?" Li Luo frowned. If this was the reason, didn't things seem a little contrived?

Li Rouyun lightly sighed as she glanced at Ox Biaobiao. He was rubbing his chain with a smile that was not a smile.

"The engagement was just the spark. Eventually, the two became a couple that cared for each other fondly. Although Grandpa was enraged, Li Taixuan was still his favorite and he gradually began to accept Tan Tailan. Besides, other than that bit about her Golden Winged Peng resonance, he admired her strength in private. If nothing went wrong from there, it was something he could accept. Until one day..." Li Rouyun's tone turned gloomy.

"An ancient remnant had been unsealed and its presence was made known to all. All of the superpowers had sent individuals to investigate, and your parents were the first ones to enter. Inside, they stumbled upon the party who Li Taixuan was originally supposed to be engaged to, that peerless beauty. There is no point in talking about the quarrel that happened between them, and conflict broke out in the end. The two sides confronted each other violently and the other lady was heavily injured. At the same time, several geniuses who possessed high standings within that clan were also mercilessly killed."

Li Rouyun pursed her lips as she continued. "When news of this broke out, the other Heavenly Emperor Bloodline was fuming. They dispatched numerous experts to capture Tan Tailan in order to have her pay for her sins with her life. Of course, Li Taixuan did not agree. He explosively attacked and attempted to fend off the enemies. Alas, no matter how amazing the duo were, it was impossible to resist the strength of an entire bloodline with just two individuals. Thus, they could only retreat whilst requesting assistance from the bloodline. When Grandpa received their call for help, he was about to mobilize the entire Dragon's Fang Lineage when he was stopped by the Dragon's Blood Lineage. Their reason was simple. They did not want a blood feud to start between the clans. It would be a war that would shock the entire Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. Grandpa furiously resisted, but the might of the Mountain Ruling Lineage was simply too great, and a decision was made after much discussion." Li Rouyin stared at Li Luo, remaining silent for a few seconds.

"Protect Li Taixuan. Abandon Tan Tailan."

Li Rouyun sighed as her gloomy voice echoed out.

"Do I need to explain what happens next?"
