Chapter 86: The Secret of the Li Family
Deep in the inner courtyard of the Li family, in the ancestral hall
In this place where countless spirit tablets were placed, an old man walked around this empty place with a white blanket, sweeping the dust on the tablet from time to time, and behind him, unhurriedly followed a twenty-year-old young man.
The young man was tall and dressed in a long brown coat, the color of which was a little old-fashioned, but it was very flattering to his calm temperament. His facial features are also well-born, his eyebrows are wide and his eyes are broad, and he is very atmospheric.
This person is Li Wei, the second brother in Li Wu's mouth.
Li Wei followed behind Elder Taishang, silently watching his slow movements, silently.
Elder Taishang cleaned all the spirit tablets before his eyes fell on Li Wei.
"Still want to find an answer?" he asked with a deep and cloudy gaze as he looked at Li Wei and asked in an old voice.
Li Wei nodded: "I still don't understand, why did you stop me and Li Yue'er from joining the sect in the first place? Why did you just let the eldest brother enter the Ten Thousand Swords Sect? Isn't this unfair? The three of us are all good qualifications of the Twin Spirit Roots, why are we treated so differently?"
Elder Taishang sighed: "Idiot, why do you bother looking for an answer!"
Li Wei straightened: "I just want to know the reason......"
"You kid, hey~" Elder Taishang sat down, and seemed to be getting older all of a sudden. "Do you know why our Li family has also produced a lot of Heavenly Spirit Roots and Dual Spirit Roots over the years, but each generation only sends one child into the sect?" Looking at Li Wei's persistence, Elder Taishang couldn't bear it, and he still planned to reveal some news.
"I don't understand!" was the most confused part of his mind.
"Ten thousand years ago, our Li family used to be a giant in the Cangyun Continent, and later, I don't know who we offended, the Li family was quickly defeated, and was forced to move to this remote place! The Li family was once unwilling, and the children with slightly better spiritual roots were sent to the sect, but those children, if they were a little out of the ordinary, they would be hunted down and killed......! Later, the ancestors of the Li family had a rule that each generation of the Li family would send a double spirit root or a heavenly spirit root to the sect to explore the path, and the others would watch over the family and preserve their strength, which ...... It's also a kind of protection for you!"
Li Wei's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he didn't expect this to be the reason for his thoughts: "Isn't that big brother dangerous?" If it is really like what Elder Taishang said, then Li Zhi is unknown in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, if he really wants to get ahead, he will not follow in the footsteps of the rest of the Li family.
"Fifty percent of the tablets here are for those children! Over the generations, so much has been accumulated. ”
Li Wei heard his sigh and felt a chill in his heart.
"Can't we find out who is behind the scenes and solve it?" He never knew that the elders had such a secret in their hearts. No wonder the Li family does not allow the children of the Three Spirit Roots to enter the sect for cultivation, and the Double Spirit Root and the Heavenly Spirit Root also try to stay, this is all to preserve the power of the family! Even if a few excellent sons are sent to the sect, I am afraid that they are also testing the bottom line of the people behind them.
At the moment of leaving, the family had already given them up, and life and death were up to them.
And the four spirit roots and five spirit roots were allowed to participate in the selection of the sect, which is also the reason why the family does not attach importance to them.
Li Wei came back to it, and he couldn't say anything in his heart, it was extremely complicated.
"No, this kid can't enter the Heavenly Yan Sect!" the white-bearded old man said as he looked at Li Dai below.
When he opened his mouth, Li Ce and Li Dai were shocked.
Li Ce thought that his father didn't let his daughter go to Tianyanzong because of her three-spirit root qualifications, and she had to stay and watch over the family according to her clan, so he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and immediately told Li Dai's performance in the martial arts arena, and finally concluded: "Although Dai Dai is a three-spirit root, it is no worse than Zhi'er, Wei'er, and Yue'er...... Why can't she go out and earn a good future? I was asked to stay in the family, and I didn't care, but her daughter is still young! Isn't she going to waste her life like this?" Li Ce looked at his father with some anger and said.
"It's because she's excellent that she's even more unsuitable for entering the sect!" said the white-bearded old man with a frown.
"Why?"
"Why?"
Li Dai and Li Ce asked at the same time.
Seeing that their eyes were insisting, the old man seemed to need an answer, so he told the Li family's secret just as Elder Taishang told Li Wei.
Listening to his father's words, Li Ce was silent.
Li Dai smiled.
"If I don't dare to step out because I'm afraid of losing my life, I look down on myself!" she said confidently and domineeringly.
