Chapter 319 - Go Home

Chapter 319: Go Home

Li Wuxiang didn’t need to die?!

All those present were the top of the Baoze’s power hierarchy. They were sharp and sophisticated and sank into silence the moment they heard Li Xianyu as they carefully considered Li Xianyu’s words.

Except for Thunderbolt Battle Lady, she was just a senior employee after all and didn’t need to use her brain very much. She didn’t understand.

“Your father has been dead for twenty years.” She asked blankly, “What did you mean by that? Are you saying that he feigned death?”

“I also hope it’s a fake death, but so many people witnessed his death. Grandma was also there. With her perception, if my dad faked his death, she would surely know.” Li Xianyu sighed and immediately changed his expression. “But Battle Lady, think about it. My father is half-step Gokudo Path, right?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady nodded.

“His master is the world’s Buddha Head, the top expert in the native demon descendant community.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady nodded again.

“My Great-Grandma should also have the strength of Gokudo Path at that time. Although she was not of tip-top Gokudo Path strength, she should not be worse than Buddha’s head.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady continued, “Hmm… Yea.”

“In just half a year, the Great Demon’s Alliance has accumulated such a huge force relying on what my father brought out of the Great Deities Palace. That ’emperor’ could do it, but did you think that my father couldn’t?”

“He could simply hide and accumulate his strength. With the presence of the Buddha Head and Great-Grandma, he could buy a lot of time. When he built his own power, how could the blood community stand up to him? And it doesn’t even take that long.”

After making it so clear, Thunderbolt Battle Lady finally understood, but she became even more puzzled, and asked, “Then why…?”

Li Xianyu shook his head. “I don’t know. Great-Grandma once told me that my father begged her to stay out of this. After that, he begged the Buddha Head not to interfere. At last, he fell in the siege of the crowd. This is the most illogical part about back then”

“If the thing that father brought out of the Great Deities Palace was not the awakening meat, it’s understandable that he didn’t want to involve Great Grandma and Buddha Head. After all, even Demonic Priest who was so powerful was unable to stand up to the world.”

“This world still functioned based on the crowds. And precisely due to that, once father made a faction that was not weaker than the Great Demons’ Alliance or one that even surpassed the Great Demons’ Alliance…”

“A faction with a Half-step Gokudo Path along with a true Gokudo Path, let alone China, is a top-tier force in the world. At that time, there was no Baoze. The Taoist Buddhist Association and the seven surnames were the representatives of the Chinese demon descendants’ community. The Buddha Head would not fight against his disciples, so my father should be invincible in the world. But his conclusion was to die!”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady slowly shivered. “Why?”

Thunderlord and others also became solemn.

“I don’t know, but there must be a reason. There are only two ways to solve this puzzle,” said Li Xianyu in a deep voice. “One is to seize the ’emperor’ of the Great Demons’ alliance. If she could get my father’s relics, she should know everything, at least some.”

“And the second is to wait. After the opening of the Great Deities Palace, we may get clues from it. All of these came from the Pantheon, so it’s time to finally go to the Great Deities Palace.”

Earth God Tian Hao’s face was complicated, and he hesitated for a moment. “Maybe he didn’t want to die, but he knew he was going to die for sure?”

In the meeting room, people’s faces turned worse.

Li Xianyu raged. “Nonsense! What could possibly make him die for sure? Who in the world can be more powerful than my Great-Grandma.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was shocked. In her impression, Li Xianyu seldom had such moments of emotional outburst except for when he was faced with a crisis of life and death. He could always control his emotions well.

This young man could control his emotions and prioritize logical thinking and was something that she had always admired about him.

It was then she noticed that Li Xianyu’s hand under the table was slightly shaking.

“Did he guess anything?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady secretly frowned.

Lightning King was a bit taken aback by the developments and knocked on the table, saying, “Okay, the conclusion would be that the ‘flesh’ obtained from the Great Demons’ Alliance is related to Li Wuxiang. As for the truth of Li Wuxiang’s death in that year, it is no longer the scope of this discussion. Without better evidence, we could only be led astray by our own guesses. This thing shall be investigated by Baoze.”

Li Xianyu sat down dispirited. He spat out a sigh, and he sounded exhausted. “I’m sorry.”

As Lightning King said, in the absence of clues, any conjecture without proper basis may lead them astray from the truth.

Tian Hao waved back, and didn’t mind Li Xianyu’s outburst previously.

“So that’s the end of today’s meeting. Battle Lady, copy the data of the monitoring equipment in the conference room, put it on a thumb drive and pass it to Mo Fei. The confidential level will be set as S-level.”

These jobs should have been done by secretaries, but secretaries were not qualified to sit in for this level of meeting. The work naturally fell on the long-legged beauty.

Everyone here was a powerful person, or at least was backed by some powerful person. Thunderbolt Battle Lady was like the matchstick girl, she had no money and power. And thus the job of a secretary naturally fell on her shoulders.

As for San Wu, from the beginning to the end, she was listening carefully and did not express her opinions. As long as she sat there and just be a quiet and beautiful girl, everyone was grateful.

If one were to tell her to express her opinions, she would be so sarcastic that one’s mentality would explode from the negativity.

Leaving the conference room, following the Lightning King, Li Xianyu took back his loot: the Meat of Evolution.

The dark brown meat was hard and dry, like a piece of beef jerky.

Li Xianyu didn’t go back to his room, but knocked on his Great-Grandmother’s room. She had just taken a bath and was wrapped in a bath towel. She opened the door and looked at him, then closed the door, and said, “Wait.”

After a while, Great-Grandma, wearing a white nightdress, reopened the door. She was graceful, her hair was still wet, and her face became more and more white and transparent because she had just taken a bath.

“What’s up?” Great-Grandma said.

“This thing is the magical thing of Great Demons’ Alliance to awaken the demon descendants. Lightning King said it can make the demon descendant’s ability to go to a higher level.” Li Xianyu opens his hand and shows her the dark brown dried meat in the palm.

“Why did she give you this?” Great-Grandma frowned deeply.

“Who knows? They also asked me this question. My answer was that I took it from Li Peiyun. You must remember not to let this information slip.” Li Xianyu entered the room, closed the door, and casually took off his shoes and climbed onto Grandma’s bed.

“I’m going to eat this, Great-Grandma. Keep a watch out for me.”

“Sure.” Great-Grandma sat cross-legged opposite him and nodded.

“I still don’t feel safe,” Li Xianyu said.

“Shall I chew it up and feed you? Are you some three years old? ” Great-Grandma rolled her eyes.

“Good idea.” Li Xianyu’s eyes brightened, and rubbed his feet against Great-Grandma’s smooth jade thighs, “My Great-Grandma, do it for me please. You can chew it up and feed it to me. With Great-Grandma’s disinfection, I can eat three kilograms of Asadin.”

Great-Grandma responded with a kick aimed right at his heart, which turned him over directly. Great-Grandma picked up the pillow and beat his head. “Why are you so annoying? Can you talk to me properly? Can you be as serious as your ancestors? How did my Li family give birth to a casanova like you? Can you not be so annoying to me? I’m your Great-Grandmother. ”

Li Xianyu curled up. He dared not resist, like a helpless dog being bullied. “I know, you are my Great-Grandma. Since when did I say otherwise? Why did you hit me suddenly? Are you having menstrual cramps today?”

Is she having mood swings? Why is her temper so bad today?

“You dare to talk back.” Great-Grandma cutely scolded, while she rained down blows like raindrops.

A long time later, the rain stopped. The Great-grandmother and Great-grandson sat opposite each other and wore a serious face.

“Grandma, I am eating it.” Li Xianyu looked serious.

“Well, no more bullshit. Just…”

Li Xianyu put the dried meat into his mouth and was about to chew it. However, he was surprised to find that the dried meat dissolved into a warm gush in his saliva and he almost spat it out by reflex.

Gulp. He had to cover his mouth and swallow the warm liquid. “How fishy!” Li Xianyu frowned as the taste.

Even though both seemed related to the relics of the ancient demons, the slime was indestructible, while the meat of evolution melted immediately after consumption. It could be seen that the two were not from the same source and to each its own miracle.

After swallowing the meat, Li Xianyu’s belly seemed to be on fire. He felt like something was burning through his belly. There was a stove in his abdomen. The heat lingered in his belly for a moment, and then it spread out to his limbs. Li Xianyu’s skin was strangely red, like a cooked shrimp. This was a sign of blood boiling. The ancient demon gene in the body was reactivated to develop his body and make it more powerful and perfect.

“So it is…” Great-Grandma mumbled to herself.

The true nature of the meat of evolution was to activate the ancient demon gene in the individual DNA, therefore achieving an effect that is essentially the same awakening. Typical awakening was the same and essentially awakened the genes of the ancient demons in the body but there were no patterns. However, the awakening flesh could achieve a safe and risk-free awakening. The premise was that the proportion of ancient demon genes in an individual was high enough.

The process of cultivation for demon descendants was to continuously develop the ancient demon gene in the body, just like the human brain development, the more thorough the development, the stronger the strength. So when the awakened demon descendants take this kind of meat piece, which was equivalent to the development process that had been saved for many years, they would immediately gain great strength.

The whole process lasted for ten minutes. Li Xianyu was tired and lying on the bed, sweating profusely, but his eyes were full of energy.

“How do you feel?” Great-Grandma asked with concern.

“I feel great,” Li Xianyu said happily. “My ability has made rapid progress, but… It seems that only the strengthening ability had been enhanced, but the self-healing ability had not changed.”

“No change? Oh well, how much has your power of reinforcement improved?” Great-Grandma frowned, and then ignored the self-healing ability. There were so many strange things in him that nothing was really strange anymore.

Li Xianyu snickered, then he grabbed the pillow. “Strengthen!”

The soft pillow suddenly became as hard as iron. No one in the world knew the enhanced ability better than his Great-Grandma. Seeing this, she knew that her great-grandson’s enhanced ability had entered a new level. She pecked her head with a smile. “Very good, very good.”

Now, even if he didn’t cheat, he would have the confidence to fight with Li Peiyun, Jie Se, Dan Chenzi, or other young experts of his generation. At first, his raw strength was slightly inferior to the three.

Li Xianyu smiled mysteriously. “Not only that, I have also developed a new way to apply the strengthening superpower. I don’t know if the predecessors have tried it.”

Great-Grandma was stupefied. A split second later she seemed even more delighted. She said curiously, “Not bad, you just awakened not too long ago, and you already developed a new application?”

“Wait for it!” Li Xianyu raised his eyebrows.

Li Xianyu’s face was serious as if he wanted to do something really amazing. His breath gathered at the tip of his tongue and he said in a deep voice, “strengthen!”

Li Xianyu’s face was full of exciting joy. “Look, look, Great-Grandma. There is nothing more exciting than this. With this thing around me, we Li family will never worry about not having enough descendants! Ha ha ha… Ouch!”

Grandma was shaking all over with anger. Her pretty face turned red. She swung the pillow that was as hard as iron and slapped her great-grandson on the face. “I don’t want you as a descendant. Now I’ll clean the household for the Li family.”

“It’s painful. My face is broken. Great-Grandma please be merciful…”

There was only the scream of Li Xianyu and the muffled sound of slapping in the room.

….

The next day, at seven in the morning.

Li Xianyu took his harem group to the buffet restaurant for breakfast. After ordering breakfast, Thunderbolt Battle Lady was curious, and asked, “What happened yesterday? You made Great-Grandma so angry.”

Li Xianyu pretended to be silly. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady stared. “What a lie. I heard your scream last night in the next room. It was such a tragedy. Many colleagues opened the door to check the situation. Everyone couldn’t bear to hear it.”

Li Xianyu emptily drank his salty soy milk. “Nah, we were just fooling around.”

My God, I lost all my reputation last night. Battle Lady, you don’t know. My Great-Grandma broke a dozen of my bones yesterday. She must be crazy to do that to the lone inheritor of the Li Family. I don’t understand. It’s all men’s dream to be able to do that. But in the eyes of Great-Grandma. I was a bad descendant and scum who defiled the family’s power. Boo, Great-Grandma doesn’t know what is truly important in life.

“Fine, if you don’t want to tell me, then don’t say it. You hide everything away from me, it is like I am nothing to you.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady seemed really upset.

Hesitating for a moment, Li Xianyu said in a low voice, “Just don’t smile too happily. You will enjoy it someday.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was confused.

Ring! The mobile phone in Li Xianyu’s pocket rang. He took it out and looked at it. His foster mother sent a message: “Son, where are you?”

“I’m at home,” Li Xianyu replied.

“Lying children are not good children. I’m in your house. What’s the matter with you kid? How long have you not been home for? There’s a layer of dust here. You didn’t come home for summer break, and I thought you preferred to be alone. But only when I came here did I realize you didn’t even stay here.” A long message came from his foster mother.

“I-I was traveling before, so I never came back,” Li Xianyu rambled about a reason.

“Then where are you now?” asked his mother.

Li Xianyu bit the bun and typed in a text message: “In the hotel. Why did you get to my place?”

The foster mother replied, “I came to see you several days after school reopened. As a result, I found that you are not at home. Your home is full of dust. If you wanted to travel, shouldn’t you cover the furniture with plastic first? Did you see that your home was like this, and just decided not to live here anymore?”

Li Xianyu replied: “I will come back today to clean up.”

Mother: “I’ll clean it for you already, but come home for dinner in the evening. How many times have you been home this year? Are you too lazy to travel half an hour’s journey?”

Li Xianyu pondered for a moment: “OK, can I take some friends home in the evening?”

Mother: “Female classmates?”

Li Xianyu: “Well, it’s the female classmates with whom I have a good relationship with. I was about to bring them home as guests.”

Mother: “Oh, I’ll try to make more dishes. Don’t tell me what they like. I’m too lazy to buy them. By the way, your sister is at home. You’d better buy some presents before coming home. She hadn’t seen you for so long, she wouldn’t be happy if you don’t get her anything.”

The character of the foster mother was similar to that of Ice Shards. They were not the kind of good wives and mothers who treat people warmly, just that the daughter was way worse than the mother.

Putting down the mobile phone, Li Xianyu said, “Great-Grandma, do you remember that I told you that my foster father is my father’s brother?”

Grandma raised her head from the plate and nodded. “What’s the matter?”

Li Xianyu squinted. “Today we’ll go home. Battle Lady, you too.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was taken aback. “I… What am I going to… What identity am I going to take?” She looked at Li Xianyu with an expression that anyone could tell what she was thinking of.

Li Xianyu said straightly, “Female classmate.”

Long-Legged Beauty said, “Ok…”

Li Xianyu said, “Mother Hua Yang, you go too.”

Hua Yang’s voice came from within his body. “Ok.”
