Chapter 386
386 Fate
“The young miss of the Li family?” King Duan thought for a moment and remembered.
The Li family did have a legitimate daughter who could not be married off. The reason why King Duan knew about this was because of his son, who had almost become the Emperor.
PU Jun was a famous Playboy in the capital. Every day, he was either playing with women at home or outside. He was a Playboy. How could such a person be the Emperor? Yes, it was the ancient times where fathers were the most important.
PU Jun and the Li family’s di daughter did not have any interactions. The difference in status between the two sides was huge and they could not play together. It was one of PU Jun’s younger brothers. When he reached marriageable age, he went around and picked for a long time from a few large families of equal status and finally took a fancy to the Li family’s di daughter.
He quickly arranged for a matchmaker to come to propose marriage. The little brother’s father had a good relationship with li Qiyun. When the latter heard this, he was also very happy. He thought to himself, ” my daughter is already at the marriageable age.
Of course, they didn’t get married. One time, when the little brother came out of a brothel, he broke the leg of a girl who was guarding the door. The one who hit her was the Li family’s daughter.
When King Duan was chatting with PU Jun, he heard about this.
This was something that happened many years ago. Since then, the Li family’s legitimate daughter had been going around to play the Hawk and Kasaya. Other than not going to brothels, she had done everything that a hedonistic son should do.
He had no reputation.
After that, it was silent for a few years. If he had not met her today, King Duan would have forgotten all about the gossip in the capital.
“She’s so beautiful, but it’s a pity that she’s a wild girl who doesn’t know the rules. What a pity, what a pity.”
That was what his son, PU Jun, had said back then. But he didn’t expect her to be such a beautiful woman.
Seeing her approach, the father and son were a little anxious, afraid of angering King Duan. It was fine if she was unruly at home, but how could she be so unruly in the residence as an important guest?
Zhao Ying had been in the military for his entire life and had killed countless people. He had never been belittled by a woman before. He snorted coldly, ” “A woman.”
“So be it. Why won’t you let me say anything?” Li Yun raised an eyebrow.
“Huang ‘er, don’t be impudent.” Li Qiyun shouted in a low voice and apologized, ” “Please don’t blame me, heavenly Zhao, and don’t stoop to my daughter’s level.”
Zhao Ying could see the disdain and contempt in li Luan’s bright eyes. He had just established his power in the Li residence. How could he allow a woman to ruin the atmosphere that he had worked so hard to create and affect his follow-up plans? If li Qiyun had come forward to punish her, it would have been fine, but she was just a person with a strong mouth but weak hands.
“I’m only a beginner in martial arts. Could you please teach me?” he sneered.
Li Luan seemed to have been waiting for these words. She smiled sweetly and stepped on the fence of the corridor. Her body was as light as a swallow as she flew over a distance of more than a hundred feet and landed in front of Zhao Ying.
“What a handsome martial art.” King Duan’s eyes lit up.
Li Qiyun could only laugh dryly. In this era, it was not something to be proud of for an unmarried woman to have extraordinary martial arts.
“Please enlighten me.” Zhao Ying tried hard to control her emotions, put away her anger and contempt, and in an instant, raised her physical condition to the best. She clenched her fist and attacked.
“Pa!”
A resounding slap.
That’s right, it was a slap. Everyone saw Li Yan raise his hand and swing it out. Then, the mighty Li Yan spun three times in the air like a top before falling to the ground with a thud.
This slap was as easy as a mother hitting her son. There was no reversal.
The scene suddenly fell silent, even the sound of a needle falling could be heard.
Li Qiyun’s eyes widened. He knew that his daughter was very cowardly, but his daughter’s strength had stopped before he sent her out to cultivate. After she came back from cultivation, he only knew that his daughter’s cultivation had improved, but he had no idea how much she had grown. Moreover, after she returned to the residence, she had never fought, and as a father, she had no time to think about school. Thus, when he saw his daughter make a move, he was shocked to death.
King Duan and the rest were even more dumbfounded. They widened their eyes and mouths in disbelief.
Heavenly Zhao had been knocked unconscious by a slap?
What is it that has blinded our eyes?
If not, then there must be something confusing our minds.
Could it be that this woman knew demonic Arts?
In their eyes, Zhao Ying was like a god who had descended to the mortal world. He was a hero born in a chaotic world. He blocked bullets with his hands and kicked cannons with his feet. He was a celestial being. Even li rufeng, one of the top masters in the Imperial Guards, had just been defeated by Zhao Ying.
In the blink of an eye, it was a little difficult for them to believe that heavenly Zhao had been beaten to the ground by a weak woman.
Only li rufeng was calm, as if he had expected such a situation. However, he was a little confused, even if he was strengthened by one realm, he shouldn’t be this powerful.
Demon descendants had strong physical bodies, and their minds went blank for a few seconds. Zhao Ying regained consciousness and looked up at the girl’s 360-degree beautiful face. She was confused for a while.”You …”
“Gokudo path?” His eyes widened. In his impression, only Gokudo Masters could kill him in one move.
The two words “Gokudo path” were so shocking that everyone who heard it was dumbfounded. This time, even li rufeng held his breath.
“No.” Li Jun denied.
“Impossible, don’t try to hide it from me.”
When Zhao Ying was still a young man, he had experienced the turmoil in Taiping country and was lucky enough to see a half-step Gokudo path. Today, he himself was not far from that realm.
If a half-step Gokudo master couldn’t do it, he would have been slapped and almost died.
“My realm is similar to yours. I can do it because of my special ability.”
“Special ability?” Zhao Ying couldn’t believe it. Since ancient times, abilities and strength had always been matched. There would never be a situation where a rookie could use his abilities better than Gokudo path.
Because the more you use your special ability, the stronger it gets. Your realm will also increase rapidly. If you were more skilled than a Gokudo master, that meant you were also a Gokudo master.
“This is the special feature of my Li family’s strengthening ability.” Li Luan looked proud and took the opportunity to show off the Li family’s prestige. in fact, as long as I want to, I can continue to strengthen endlessly.
Although I’ve never been to a private school, don’t try to lie to me … Zhao Ying used her eyes to express her inner thoughts.
Li Luan was even more straightforward. She clenched her fists and began to gather her Qi.
Two seconds later, her hair moved on its own without any wind.
Five seconds later, a strong wind started blowing in the courtyard.
Eight seconds later, a hurricane rose out of thin air, and the sky was filled with dust and leaves.
After a long time, the wind stopped, and the courtyard was silent.
……
King Duan and Zhao Ying left. The former was shocked, thinking that he had seen a miracle. The latter was trembling, and her legs were trembling.
After getting on the carriage and getting some distance away from the Li residence, Zhao Ying, who was holding a cup of herbal tea, finally calmed down. His eyes lit up.”Your Highness, I have a candidate.”
“Mm … Ah? What do you mean?” King Duan seemed to have just reacted and slapped his thigh.”Are you saying that she’s an immortal?”
Zhao Ying avoided the question of “Immortals” and said in a deep voice, ” “The unparalleled war spirit has been selected.”
“Who is it?”
“Her? the Li family’s first wife’s daughter, Li Jun.”
“Preposterous. The great Qing Dynasty has fallen to the point of relying on a woman to save the country?”
Although King Duan was a bad person, he was a man who held power in a feudalistic dynasty. He was a male chauvinist to the bone. Even if he died under the guns of the foreigners and jumped off a carriage, he would still rely on a woman to save the country.
He had already fallen, alright … Zhao Ying was disdainful. Although the volunteer Peace Corps held the banner of supporting the Qing Dynasty and destroying the ocean, in reality, they had no choice but to change their tone. Previously, they had expelled the Manchurians and restored the Qing Dynasty. However, in the early stages, they were constantly suppressed by the Qing army and suffered heavy casualties. A few leaders even died. Only then did they change the flag and become Fuqing and annihilate the ocean.
On the other side, li Qiyun’s study.
“Dad?”
The crisp call woke li Qiyun up from his deep thoughts. He couldn’t help but look up at his daughter, who was standing in front of the desk like an obedient little girl.
To be honest, he didn’t dare to sit on the chair. He felt that he should stand up and respectfully say, ” Come, come, come, please sit.
Even though the other party was an embryo that he had created.
Even though this was a society that emphasized the three talents and four virtues, men were superior to women.
There had not been a Gokudo master in the demon descendants ‘community for many years. Since the Opium War, the land of China had suffered and the people had no means of living. Isn’t it said that a chaotic world produces fierce heroes? this time, it seems that the Qing Dynasty has fallen. From the first time the country’s Gate was opened to the present, sixty years have passed, and there have been many capable people in the demon descendants ‘community, but no master has ever broken the last piece of cloth.
If he had a Gokudo master, the soul training plan would not have been in such an awkward situation.
As he thought about it, he was lost in thought again.
Li Jun called out,”father.”
Li Qiyun coughed and carefully probed. Luan ‘er, have you really reached Gokudo path? ”
“No, father, what I said just now was true. I’m not a Gokudo master. However, by relying on the strengthening ability, I did step into Gokudo path for a short time just now.”
“How did you do it?” Li Qiyun swallowed his saliva.
“As I practiced, I did it.” Li Jun felt that this was simply nonsense. It was like asking the god of poetry li Taibai: How did you manage to write those poems?
If it was a carefree and arrogant poet, he would definitely say, ” There was no other reason other than talent.
This answer was very touching, but the person in front of her was her father, so she couldn’t give such an answer.
“…..”Li Qiyun was at a loss for a long time, and only one thought was left in his heart: Are you my daughter? Are you a monster?
He knew that his daughter was talented, but she was wild and difficult to tame. Thus, in the past few years, he adopted a free-range attitude.
Who knew that as he raised her, he would raise a monster …
“Wait, Luan ‘er, this isn’t the same thing as strengthening a realm you mentioned, right?” Li rufeng asked the question that had been in his heart for a long time, ” although I haven’t reached that realm yet, I’ve at least touched it. I’m definitely not as strong as you’ve shown.
“Yes.” Li Zheng pecked his head. this is an even higher realm. In theory, I can strengthen my power endlessly, without any limit.
Li rufeng didn’t understand and was at a loss.
but there’s actually a limit, because my body can’t withstand such a powerful force and will collapse. Just that one attack was already very hard on me, and I can only hold on for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
This time, the father and son both understood. A stick of incense worth of Gokudo path …
“Why didn’t you tell me before?” Li rufeng asked.
“I’m afraid it’ll hurt your confidence.”
“……”
You really are a monster.
Even though it was hard to believe and even hard to accept, the truth was right in front of him. All he could do was accept it, accept the fact that his daughter was a monster.
Then, he said,
“Rest early. Tomorrow, you will go to the village with your sister-in-law.”
“I don’t want to.” Li Jun rejected her father’s suggestion.
“Is it the Gokudo path that gave you the confidence to challenge me?” Li Qiyun’s face was dark.
“Yes.” Li Jun nodded.
Li Qiyun opened his mouth, but he was speechless. He really doesn’t care about my face as a father …
After thinking about it, he realized that he really couldn’t do anything to this daughter of his. She had spent a lot of money in the battle of the Eagles, and she had made friends with a mob of people from all walks of life. She was not the kind of girl who would kneel down in fear when her father was angry.
Therefore, it was useless to put on the airs of a father.
Even if they fought, they wouldn’t be able to win. Of course, their daughter probably wouldn’t fight back, but her legs were on her body. Wouldn’t she know how to run?
“We clearly agreed on this.” Li Qiyun’s tone was slightly aggrieved.
“I heard everything just now. The so-called soul training plan. King Duan forced you to do it, didn’t he? A few days ago, big brother was injured because of this. The clan is definitely in trouble. I can’t leave at this time.” Li Jun wrinkled her nose.
She had chosen to teach Zhao Ying a lesson in order to give her and King Duan a taste of their might. She had heard that her father and brother were not in a good situation.
“You guys aren’t as good at fighting as I am. I can protect you and big brother when you’re in danger.” She added.
It was an embarrassing bloody reality …
“Alright,” he said. Li Qiyun thought about it and felt that it wasn’t a big problem to keep his daughter.
Not long after, he recalled the conversation he had tonight. He realized that this sentence was the last sentence he would say in his daughter’s life.
In the following 120 years, she had recalled this conversation with her father countless times and asked herself countless times, did she regret it?
A single decision had changed the fate of a lifetime and the fate of an entire clan.
