Xue Hongquan sat back down, waved his big hand, and said in a deep voice: "Give it all to me! I will take this battle book!"

"You!

Xue Hongquan's bull temper, Xue Huaizhong is naturally clear, once he makes a decision, no one can change it. Sighing heavily, Xue Huaizhong and Xue Hao, father and son, had no choice but to retreat.

Xue Huaizhong walked to the door, saw Ji Li standing outside the door, and said fiercely: "Look at the good things you did!", and walked away after speaking.

Ji Li stood there without speaking, and Meng Lan on the side comforted him in a soft voice: "Young Master, don't listen to him." ”

Ji Li squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm fine, you go back first, I'll talk to my father." ”

Meng Lan thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay." ”

"Is it Li'er? Come in. Xue Hongquan's voice came out.

Ji Li walked into the hall quickly, half-knelt on the ground, and said, "Father, it's me who is useless, it's me who has burdened you." ”

Xue Hongquan got up and stepped forward, helped Ji Li, grabbed his shoulder, and said with relief: "Li'er, I heard the guard at the door say, you did a good job, and a man should be bloody." ”

Ji Li said in disappointment: "Bloody, hey, I don't deserve it, it will only add trouble to my family." ”

Hearing this, Xue Hongquan looked solemn and said, "Li'er, there is still hope for everything, before the age of sixteen, people's aura perception will gradually increase." ”

Ji Li knew that these were Xue Hongquan's words to comfort him, and in the past few years, his aura perception had not increased at all, and he couldn't have known this very well.

"Perhaps. ”

Xue Hongquan didn't answer again, but took out a jade pendant from his arms, "This is for you." “

The jade pendant is pure white and flawless, crystal clear, there seems to be a soft light flashing inside, just look at the quality, it is definitely a piece of excellent jade, the jade side is engraved with a Ji word, the font is soft, but it gives people a feeling of strength and strength.

"It turns out that there really is this jade pendant. "Ji Li had only heard the old housekeeper at home mention this jade pendant, but he had never seen it. He stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, and the moment he touched the jade pendant, a strange feeling surged all over his body, this feeling is indescribable, if you have to describe it, it is a sense of intimacy, but Ji Li didn't care too much, and carefully took it into his arms.

"When I picked you up, this jade pendant was right next to you, and now I hand him over to you, maybe as a clue to find your biological parents. Xue Hongquan's expression was slightly sad, now the Xue family is in great trouble, if he loses in the duel, he hopes that Ji Li can rely on this jade pendant to find his biological parents.

Ji Li saw Xue Hongquan's thoughts and asked, "Father, how sure are you of the duel?"

"Why, do you think I'm going to be defeated?"

"I'm just a little worried, it is said that Lu Benchu was already a master of the Lingtai Realm. ”

Ji Li still understands the basic theoretical knowledge, and when a cultivator enters the Lingtai realm, he needs to condense the Lingtai in the spiritual sea in his body, and if he condenses the Lingtai, he can obtain a powerful mystery. The combat power of the powerhouses of the Lingtai Realm is far from being comparable to that of the Linghai Realm.

Xue Hongquan said indifferently: "Being a father is not a fool, if I don't have some hole cards, I won't fight." ”

Ji Li was very curious and asked, "What hole card?"

Xue Hongquan smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Ji Li was stunned, he didn't expect that a serious person like his father would also sell Guanzi. He didn't ask any more, and changed the subject: "Even Lu Benchu is back, why is grandpa... ”

Ji Li's words struck Xue Hongquan's heart that had been buried in his heart for twenty years, he paced back and forth with a complicated expression, thoughtful, and after a while, he replied: "I don't know very well, twenty years ago, the Heavenly Saint Kingdom suddenly besieged and conscripted troops outside the country, not only your grandfather and Lu Benchu, but all the people on the periphery of the Heavenly Saint Kingdom, above the Spirit Sea Realm, were forced to enlist, and it is understood that most of them went and never came back. ”

Xue Hongquan stepped forward and patted Ji Li's shoulder, and said earnestly: "These are all old things, and the current things are the most important." ”

Ji Li nodded heavily, "Understood." ”

"Go back and rest, for you will have to retreat for a few days for your father's sake. ”

After the father and son talked, Ji Li didn't stay for a long time, and walked back slowly alone.

Along the way, the subordinates all saluted him, but there was no special respect, Ji Li had long been used to it, he knew that in this holy spirit world where the strong are respected, he did not have the capital to gain the respect of others. He took out the jade pendant in his arms, he was very concerned about the jade pendant left by his biological parents, so he looked left and right, and secretly said in his heart, this jade pendant is really good, but except for this Ji word, I can't see other clues to find my biological parents, and in this world, there are not a few people surnamed Ji.

"Forget it, since they abandoned me, what else am I going to do with them?"

"Ahh ”

Ji Li just buried his head in thought, and didn't pay attention to the front, and hit an old man in front of him who was sweeping the floor.

The old man asked in a trembling voice, "You, are you okay?" ”

Ji Li raised his head, looked at the old man's thin and rickety body, and said apologetically: "I'm fine, it's that I didn't pay attention." Lao Li, it didn't hurt you, did it?"

This old man is a servant of the Xue family, who came to the Xue family five years ago and has been doing the work of sweeping the floor. He looks old, his body is also crumbling, as if he is about to be blown down by the wind at any time, the Xue family didn't want to keep him, but he didn't want to be paid, just a bite to eat, so he reluctantly left him, and the people in the house didn't know what his name was, they all called him Lao Li.

Ji Li has a good impression of Lao Li, in addition to eating and sleeping, he usually sweeps the floor, and in his free time, he often sits alone in front of his small hut, holding a pipe and reading a book. He is silent, does not compete with other servants and is jealous, and the key is that Ji Li has always been respectful.

Lao Li supported the ground with a broom, bent over and waved his hand, and said with a smile: "I'm fine, I'm fine!

Listening to Lao Li's cough, Ji Qi tightened his heart, and kindly persuaded: "Lao Li, you are so old, I will talk to my father later, give you some gold coins, and go back to retire with peace of mind." ”

"No, no, I can still do it for a few more years!"

Ji was a little sad in his heart, thinking in his heart, maybe he had no relatives for a long time, and he had no home to go back to. He looked at the broom in Lao Li's hand, and then said, "Anyway, I'm idle and idle, I'll help you sweep for a while." ”

Lao Li shook his head again and again, and said, "How can this trouble you, young master." ”

"I'm not a porcelain doll, can't I do this work?" After speaking, he put away the jade pendant in his hand, and without waiting for Lao Li to respond, he took the broom in his hand and bent down to sweep it up.

Lao Li looked at Ji Li intentionally or unintentionally as he withdrew the jade pendant in his arms, after Ji Li lowered his head and bent over and began to sweep the floor, a light flashed in his cloudy eyes, and his old and godless face suddenly burst into vitality, straightening up his rickety body, and he muttered, "Is it time?"

Ji Li only lowered his head and swept the floor, but he didn't notice Lao Li's amazing changes, "Lao Li, don't say it, this sweeping is really tiring." ”

"Yes, young master, don't look at it, this sweeping can also exercise your physique. ”

Lao Li replied, looked around, saw no one, and pointed at Ji Li's head.

With a "snap", Ji Li didn't react and immediately fell to the ground.

"Young master, I'm offended. Lao Li's young master shouted differently from the past, full of a deep meaning. After speaking, he actually hugged Ji Li with his thin arm like a branch, and the light and shadow flashed, and Ji Li appeared in his thatched hut at an astonishing speed.

Lao Li gently put Ji Li on the bed, and then took out the jade pendant from Ji Li's arms, looking at the jade pendant, Lao Li had something more crystal in his eyes. Then wisps of subtle golden light emanated from his palm, and the jade pendant seemed to have been responded, and it also flashed with a brilliant golden light, "Go!" With Lao Li's low shout, the jade pendant flew to Ji Li's eyebrows with a swish. Lao Li's hands quickly formed a complex magic seal, and the magic seal flew into the jade pendant, and the jade pendant suddenly turned into a golden light and disappeared in Ji Li's eyebrows.

Lao Li exhaled as if relieved, and whispered with a complicated expression: "You still have to look at yourself in the future." ”

After doing this, he pushed the door and went out, re-posing as if he was in the old age, leaning on the broom, and shouting in a trembling voice: "Oh no!
