Chapter 557 - 179: Fathers and Sons, Husbands and Wives Reunited; The Whole Family Enters Cloud Mountain (Long - )
In the process of killing the enemy, even if her body keeps being blown apart, it doesn’t matter, because instant destruction will be followed by instant recovery...
And this state is the embodiment of the "6238" value.
Gu Yaojue felt the power within the blade, incredibly happy.
A spiritual artifact can completely change the power of a Fifth Grade powerhouse.
That night, Gu Yaojue properly thanked Li Yuan.
The two lived for more than ten days an "almost like a married couple although not actually" lifestyle.
During this period, Gu Yaojue occasionally returned to Divine Wood Hall to investigate the situation.
Finally, one day, she learned news of Li Ping’an going out for training and smiled, "Ping’an, come sit by Auntie’s side, Auntie has sorted out all the information for your mission..."
Li Ping’an agreed.
...
Two days later.
Li Ping’an arrived at a secret manor.
This time, he was to go out and disrupt a secret gathering of the Lotus Sect, where there were no Fifth Grades but many Sixth Grades.
Since many Fifth Grade Elders from Divine Wood Hall had already been dispatched, this task fell to him.
After all, everyone knows Li Ping’an is very powerful.
This former rising star has been rapidly advancing in a peerless manner with an insatiable momentum, now faintly ranked fifth among the powerhouses of Divine Wood Hall.
The four ahead of him are: Qing Hancheng, Gu Xuejian, Jing Shuixiang, Jing Ruyi.
Not to mention the first two.
As for Jing Shuixiang and Jing Ruyi, one holds Li Yuan’s three hundred years of life-bound weapon, and the other holds Master Gong’s dying masterpiece.
These two rely entirely on powerful spiritual artifacts to suppress Li Ping’an.
As for the likes of Patriarch Jing Banfeng, they are already beneath him.
You could say, as long as Li Ping’an does not encounter Fourth Grades, he can basically handle escaping.
Plus, Divine Wood Hall values him highly, never sending him on distant missions, only those around the vicinity, thus allowing him to stride broadly, people outside who see him would address him as "Master Ping’an", while some with deeper connections might secretly call him "Young Hall Master".
After all, almost everyone in Divine Wood Hall thinks Li Ping’an is the destined Hall Master.
He is too exceptional.
In these years, Li Ping’an has also tried to find his parents’ whereabouts, but to no avail.
Fortunately, he still has Aunt Yao, Third Lady, and Fourth Lady as relatives, as well as his master, and once his little follower, now his wife.
He survived the most difficult times, emerged, and now, although still arrogant and reckless, is a true powerhouse.
He has said more than once that, if he were to live another life, he would definitely defeat his father to show him his prowess...
After arriving at the secret manor, Li Ping’an received the information compiled for him by Yaojue, then ate a meal and left.
Just after he left, a figure followed.
...
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Ping’an successfully completed the mission, casually slaughtering the three Sixth Grade members of the Lotus Sect at the gathering, then leisurely headed back to Divine Wood Hall, bearing a long blade forged for him by the Weapon Forger of the Holy Fire Palace from the Five Elements Sect.
By now, Mid-Autumn had long passed, and leaves in the forest began to fall.
The leaves fell like flying flowers and butterflies, covering the yellowing tall grass, wafting with the wind, tumbling and swirling until they could no longer fly, then turning into mud and dust.
Li Ping’an strode across this desolate late autumn, his eyes looking at the sunset on the horizon, suddenly his expression changed, he stopped, and a smile tugged at his lips as he shouted:
"If you dare come to ambush your Uncle Li, you must have some skills.
Come out, if you can amuse me, I might spare your life."
With those words, a figure wearing a conical hat and a mask stepped out, holding a dead branch of late autumn in his hand.
The branch bent slightly, resembling a blade.
Li Ping’an glanced at the dead branch, clapped his hands in admiration, "Respectable, but everyone knows without a good weapon, no matter how strong your power, you can’t unleash its full potential, can you?"
The person was none other than Li Yuan.
Since mastering "Dragon Breath" and "Human World Transformation," Li Yuan’s flesh and fire have fused, resulting in a transformation.
Others use weapons, but he no longer needs them.
Because his flesh is the weapon.
In other words, the fire can stimulate him at any time, allowing him to enter Fourth Grade; this is tantamount to a peerless divine weapon, after all, "Sun and Moon in the Sky" and Barbarian King’s Axe have such effects.
This is also why he could pose as Dian Wei with only an ordinary long blade to slaughter multitudes.
If an ordinary long blade can slaughter multitudes, then... a Phoenix Tree Branch will do as well.
He flicked the Phoenix Tree Branch with his palm, eyes fixed on the branch, his left hand slightly extending, disdainfully beckoning with a finger towards the "Young Hall Master of Divine Wood Hall" at the far end of the field.
Li Ping’an laughed heartily, "Interesting, you’ve piqued my interest."
Though he laughed, he was not careless, his eyes like lightning, swiftly drawing the long blade from his back, swaying back and forth like a breeze brushing willow, each sway creating two Li Ping’ans, each flash forming another pair.
Four Li Ping’ans stood in front of him, one suddenly flying into the sky, reaching mid-air, fingers pointing down...
The seemingly illusory long blade became substantial, swiftly slashing down, silver light flashing, reaching the masked figure.
Whoosh!
The masked figure blew a breath.
The blade shattered.
He waved the Phoenix Tree Branch.
The airborne Li Ping’an exploded.
Li Ping’an: ??????
The masked figure raised his left hand and continued to beckon with a finger.
Li Ping’an’s expression grew solemn, his form flickered, and immediately, like the "Clone Skill" Li Yuan had seen before in his previous life, one by one, Li Ping’ans of different postures were separated out.
