Chapter 193: Turbulent Undercurrents Hidden Beneath The Surface

The Primordial Blood Tree turned its gaze to the remaining three children.

"Li Kuangren, the eldest son of the fifth generation, you will not inherit the position of family head. But I see you ascending a lofty throne."

"A throne?"

Li Kuangren, a twelve-year-old boy with ordinary features, fell into deep thought. "Divine Tree," he said, "I've heard stories about you, but I don't want to ascend a throne. I want to be like Great-grandfather Sword King, slaying enemies in all directions with my sword."

The Primordial Blood Tree paid no attention to the boy's dreams.

"Li Kuangshi, Li Kuangcai," it said, "you two siblings have returned from the temple. You are now ten years old. After years of burning incense and worshipping Buddha, your Buddhist nature is deeply ingrained and is hard to erase. You should go to the Thunderfire Cave. Depart today."

"Amitabha."

A young monk and a young nun.

Watching the two set off on their journey alone, Li Wei clicked the mouse. Back then, because the Li family was facing the entire Tailin Town, they had sent these children to the temple. He hadn't expected them to become Buddhist disciples.

However, this Primordial Blood Tree wasn't just capable of giving omens; the omens it had given the Li family children had always been quite accurate.

Among the six children of the fifth generation, only Li Kuangtu and Li Kuanghua had developed traits, and neither of them were particularly good ones.

[Your descendant, Li Kuangtu, has lived a pampered life in the Cloudsea Pavilion for the past seven years, acquiring a child bride named Qingyu. His cultivation has reached the second level of Qi Refining. Huang Xiujin, who has been alone for three hundred years, dotes on young Kuangtu. Growing up surrounded by love and care, he has acquired the trait — Greenhouse Flower.]

[He has a high starting point, but he is sensitive and fragile, unable to withstand life's trials. The chance of receiving gifts from elders is greatly increased, but cultivation speed is reduced by 10%.]

...

[Your descendant, Li Kuanghua, despite suffering abuse since childhood, still diligently cultivated at the Hundred Fists Sect, silently enduring and striving for progress. At only 9 years old, she has already reached the third level of Qi Refining. Acquired trait — The Striving Victim.]

[Years of torment have made her even more self-conscious and fearful of others' bullying. She will be hesitant and timid in everything she does. Cultivation speed increased by 20%, combat power reduced by 10%.]

"Sigh."

Li Wei sighed deeply. A child's formative years were crucial. If Old Pig were still alive, and the Li family elders had raised them, perhaps things would be different.

One of these two had been pampered too much, while the other had suffered too much. Both had developed deep-rooted issues. Li Wei could only hope that things would gradually change in the future. Li Kuangtu wasn't a big problem; at worst, he could be sent to the Thunderfire Cave or Dawn to experience a different life.

But Li Kuanghua, this child, who had endured years of abuse, still spoke up for the Hundred Fists Sect when Huang Xiujin wanted to take her to seek revenge. This showed her inherently kind nature.

He glanced once more at the well-developed estate.

Li Wei sped up time.

Spring passed and autumn arrived quickly.

[Year 92]

[Special Event - The War Between the Two Sects, Concluded!]

[It is said that the Sect Master of the Skyveil Sect, Zhen, has reached the end of his lifespan. The Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise Sect, Lan Jing, along with their Sect Master, Gui Daoren Daoist, went to offer their condolences. The two thousand-year-old elders shared a grand feast and drinks, and the long-standing feud between the two sects vanished like smoke.]

He stared at the screen for two hours.

After the chaos caused by the Li family two years ago, the entire Azure Cloud region had surprisingly become peaceful.

Except for the lingering nuclear radiation around the Skyveil Sect, it was as if nothing had ever happened. All the sects and clans withdrew their wanted notices for the Li family members.

Two years had passed, and the Li family was no longer being hunted. Even... the two major sects that had been fighting for decades were now hand in hand, respecting each other.

The events of that year — the Li family building the 'Tower' of human heads, their brutal attacks on twelve factions, and their battle against thirty percent of Azure Cloud region's top experts at the Skyveil Sect — had become the most taboo subject in the entire region.

With Huang Xiujin's help, the fifth generation of the Li family was slowly growing up. The elders who were scattered outside also sent back treasures from time to time, enabling the rapid development of the family estate.

World peace?

No!

Li Wei tapped his fingers rhythmically on the side of his bed. A line of text appeared on the screen.

[Your descendant, Li Yunbing, has once again taken control of one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs' factions within the Thunderfire Cave. Their strongest member is at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Your family currently controls twelve of the Heavenly Gangs. Li Yunbing is excitedly relaying this news to you. He seems to be growing fond of the feeling of power and hopes you will bless him with continued success.]

[Your descendant, Li Tianshuang, has acquired another spirit beast in the Swamp Forest, an "Ancient Giant Rooster." The two Demon Kings occupying the swamp are growing increasingly wary of her. She has decided to leave the Swamp Forest with her spirit beasts and head towards the Golden Dipper Forest. Along the way, her mount found a Lightness Fruit, allowing her to break through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment!]

[Your descendant, Li Tianqi, stood on the arena of Black Tortoise Sect's ten-year martial arts competition. He looked at the talented young cultivator on stage, who, at 49 years old, was at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Considering his own strength, which was nearing the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, he felt he hadn't pushed his luck far enough. He decided to temporarily restrain himself and continue courting death for another ten years, at which point he would crush the entire Black Tortoise Sect. Acquired trait — Never Give Up, Never Surrender.]

[He has developed a fascination with near-death experiences. Opportunities slightly increase when near death.]

[.....]

All the Li family descendants understood that despite the current calm, turbulent undercurrents were hidden beneath the surface!

He slowly opened the large map of the Azure Cloud region.

On it... more than half of the markers were red dots, indicating enemies!

[All your descendants swear to you that one day, they will return to their homeland with honor and dignity!]
