Chapter 65 - Rumors Spread
After asking the Dead Elder, he was full of expressions of "I didn't see that your taste is so unique", and looked at Li Xiuyuan with a playful expression.
Li Xiuyuan looked helpless when he heard this, knowing that it was a misunderstanding by Elder Death, but he didn't expect this thousand-year-old man to have such a strong gossip heart.
So he explained to him: "Ask Uncle Death, things are not what you think.
First of all, I don't have any special relationship with Elder Hu Wenlong, and those are all groundless. Secondly, in the Demon Suppression Tower, I didn't know any demon beasts of the opposite sex.
The most important point is that although this little glutton is like father and son with me, or even closer than my own grandfather, he is definitely not my biological son!
I met him in the Demon Suppression Tower, and I had a deep relationship with him during the time I spent with him, so he recognized me as my father later.
I named him Li Hanhan, and although he looked like a big-mouthed little earth dog, he was actually an authentic ancient beast glutton. ”
After listening to Li Xiuyuan's explanation, Elder Ask Death still looked unconvinced, and raised his eyebrows: "Really?
Now let's not talk about this for now, I think you must have gone well this time to find a real person with a ring, right?"
Li Xiuyuan thanked the Elder of the Dead and said, "Thank you for the concern of the Dead Uncle, this trip was quite smooth." ”
Elder Death said, "You are my nephew, and you are the honorary elder of the academy, and I am worried about your safety, that is, I am responsible for the future of the academy.
And you were able to come out with the demon beast from the Demon Suppression Tower, which is absolutely impossible without the permission of a real person.
So I judged that you must have met a real person and done what you wanted. ”
Elder Taishang asked Death as if he suddenly remembered something, smiled and said, "However, you should hurry back now." If you go back any later, there will be a fight at home. ”
Li Xiuyuan thought to himself: "Don't look at the high-sounding you said, in fact, it has been closed in the forbidden place of the Demon Suppression Tower for too long, so you are obsessed with eating melons, right?"
It's just that you haven't been out of the forbidden land since the Yuan Infant Period, and although you have the heart to gossip, where do you know so much about the outside world? It's very puzzling. ”
Although he was not convinced, he said, "Thank you, uncle, then I'll go back and have a look." ”
After thinking about it, he said: "Uncle Shi, about Li Hanhan, don't talk nonsense with others, it's easy to cause misunderstanding." ”
Wen Tian listened to Li Xiuyuan's words and replied, "What are you talking about? Do I look like the kind of person who is very gossipy?
Li Xiuyuan looked at Elder Wentian with suspicion, his eyes were full of distrust, but there was no better way but to choose to believe him, so he bowed down and said goodbye to Wentian.
After speaking, Li Hanhan also raised his two little dog paws, asked Elder Taishang for death, and then the two of them left the forbidden land of the Demon Suppression Tower.
Elder Asking Death saw Li Xiuyuan and Li Hanhan gradually walking away, and when they disappeared into the formation, they rushed into the thatched hut where they asked Sheng, and they didn't care if they were cultivating or not.
I couldn't hold back my gossip: "Ask Sheng, do you know? Li Xiuyuan, the honorary elder of the academy, has been in the Demon Suppression Tower for more than a year, and has given birth to children with demon beasts!"
So not long after, from the Zhengqi Academy, there was a news that "Li Xiuyuan trespassed into the Demon Suppression Tower and fell in love with the demon beast and had children", which swept the entire Wuzhou in a short period of time.
Really ▪ tight-lipped as a bottle ▪, the elder Taishang asked death.
The popularity of the news is because "the heir of the Li family in Scholarly City falls in love with the demon beast", "the honorary elder of the Zhengqi Academy gives birth to a child out of wedlock", "the combination of man and the demon beast gives birth to a puppy".
These few sensitive keywords quickly became popular and had a tendency to spread to other states.
Not surprisingly, this news quickly spread back to Li Xiuyuan's hometown of Scholar City.
It was a very ordinary day, Li Xiuyuan's father Li Wanzheng and Shui Yaya and his wife were sitting at home chatting, and suddenly heard a housekeeper outside the door to report: "Tell the head of the family, the news of the son of Xiuyuan has come back from the Zhengqi Academy!"
Hearing the news of having a son, the couple was overjoyed. Before Li Wan could open his mouth and let the housekeeper in, Shui Yaya had already rushed over and pushed the door open: "How is my son?
Xiu Yuan went to the Zhengqi Academy to practice, and he didn't say goodbye to us before leaving, only left a letter. There's been no news since he left, so what's going on?"
Before the housekeeper could speak, Shui Yaya had already babbled a lot, since Li Xiuyuan left, the most concerned person belonged to her mother, how could she not be excited when she heard the news of her son?
But he saw the butler standing at the door, and did not dare to speak.
Li Wan saw that the housekeeper wanted to speak and stopped, and suddenly felt bad in his heart, because if it was good news, then the housekeeper would have already shouted loudly, how could it be like now?
Now he is standing at the door, not even daring to enter the door, and there must be something unspeakable.
So his eyes widened, and he said to the housekeeper: "Come in first and close the door, no matter whether the news is good or bad, I don't blame you, just say it!"
"Yes!" replied the butler, and as he walked into the room, he turned and closed the door shut, "Actually, most of the news is good......! The subordinates don't know if it's good or bad. ”
When Shui Yaya heard the housekeeper say this, he suddenly became anxious: "Can the news still be divided into half and half? What do you mean I don't know if it's good or bad?"
The housekeeper saw that the master mother was really anxious, so he hurriedly said, "The good news is that Gongzi is now the honorary elder of the Righteous Qi Academy!"
"What? Xiu Yuan is already an elder of the Righteous Qi Academy? He is only in the Qi Condensation Period, how can it be? Could this news be false?"
Li Wan didn't wait for the housekeeper to finish speaking, he interrupted him and hurriedly asked.
The housekeeper replied: "Gongzi is now a cultivator in the foundation building period, and this matter has been confirmed by the deacons of the Zhengqi Academy in the Scholar City, I believe there should be no fake." ”
Hearing this, Shui Yaya instantly smiled: "My son is really promising!But the foundation building period is not enough to serve as the elder of the Righteous Qi Academy? No matter how many reasons there are, as long as my son is promising!"
At this time, only Li Wan was relatively calm, not carried away by the incomplete good news, and continued to ask: "Didn't you say that there is still half of it, I don't know if it's good or bad news?"
"And ......" The housekeeper looked at Shui Yaya, who was immersed in happiness, and hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to speak.
Li Wan looked at him, and the bad feeling in his heart became more obvious, and he frowned and scolded: "Don't grind, say it quickly!"
When the housekeeper heard what the master of the house said, he emboldened himself and said, "And ...... It is rumored that Gongzi fell in love with a demon beast, and for this demon beast to trespass into the Demon Suppression Tower, he went in for more than a year, and now even the child has been born!
It is said that the child born turned out to be a puppy, because someone heard the puppy himself call Childe Father!"
When Li Wan and Shui Yaya heard the news, their hearts instantly paused for a few seconds, as if the sky was about to fall.
Li Wan had lost the ability to think at this time, and thought to himself: "My Li family is in the same lineage, and there is only one heir to Xiuyuan, but now his eldest son, the eldest grandson of my Li family, is actually a puppy?"
No, we must take advantage of the fact that the news has not yet fermented, and arrange a few more family affairs for Xiuyuan as soon as possible, and this matter may still have a chance to be redeemed. ”
Thinking of this, Li Wan asked in a trembling voice, "Who else knows this news?"
The housekeeper replied honestly: "The other states of the entire Xuanling Continent should not be clear for the time being, but the entire Wuzhou has been spread, and I believe that few people do not know." ”
Shui Yaya closed his eyes when he heard this, and his tears couldn't stop flowing down, and Li Wan's whole body was paralyzed in the Taishi chair, he raised his hand with great effort and waved: "You go out first." ”
Seeing this, the butler quickly retreated and left, and closed the door with his hand.
