My Endless Life.

Chapter 240 Union
Li Xueren stared at Li Qi.

Li Qi was also staring at him, and the two of them stared at each other for a long time.

Seeing that the other party had an expression of "I won't move unless you tell me", Li Qi said helplessly:
"…grandfather."

"Ah! My dear grandson!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xueren, who had a stern face, suddenly laughed. He looked so happy, like a child who got candy, without any of the bearing and demeanor of a second-rank master.

There was no trace of the might and power that had just been used to suppress the six sects' masters.

After Li Qi called out, he seemed to have let go of something. He looked at Li Xueren with a complicated expression and asked:

"Why... did you come back at this time?"

Mr. Li was angry with his son, so he left for more than ten years. Everyone thought he had died somewhere long ago. Who would have thought that not only was he not dead, but he was promoted from the third rank to the second rank.

If this were to get out, the status of Qiqiao Villa would probably rise.

Although because there is only one third-grade grandmaster, Qiqiao Villa is not yet equal to the six major sects.

But if we talk about the number one force among the six sects, all the major forces in the martial arts world will probably recognize it.

If the Li family is willing to work hard and strive to become an aristocratic family, the five surnames and six families in the court will probably become five surnames and seven families.

A strong man at the level of a second-grade grandmaster is intimidating.

After all, if one is promoted to Grandmaster in martial arts, one’s life span will be extended by fifty years, and if one is promoted to the second rank, one’s life span will be extended by another hundred years.

Promoted to the first rank, it is said that he lived to be three hundred years old!
Li Xueren is not even seventy years old yet, but he is already a second-rank grandmaster this year. Based on the average age of eighty, Li Xueren can live to be one hundred and sixty.

One hundred and sixty years is enough to make the Li family a prominent family.

It is even possible to become one of the seven major sects!
But the problem is that Li Xueren doesn't seem to have any thoughts on this.

After all, judging from the skills he just displayed, he should not be a newly promoted second-grade. Even if he is not in the middle second-grade, he has stayed in the early second-grade for a long time.

When he was promoted, he did not come back immediately to tell the world that the Li family had produced a great master.

Then he probably won’t reveal his identity now and let people know that the Li family has a grand master.

So Li Qi was very confused. What was the reason that made Li Xueren return to the Li family and beat up his son?

Li Qi asked out of curiosity, but the old man did not answer. Instead, he continued to smile and said:
"Call twice more."

"?"

"Call me grandpa again."

"..."

Can you be a bit more senior?

The corner of Li Qi's mouth twitched. Seeing the other person smiling as if he wanted to hear him call him grandpa, he felt speechless.

However, seeing the other party like this, Li Qi's eyes turned and he simply turned his head and said:
"I won't call anymore. If you don't tell me the answer, I won't call anymore."

"Hey! Kid, didn't you scream just now and be nice?"

"Just now, now is now."

Li Qi turned his back to Li Xueren, looking like a grumpy child.

But Li Xueren just fell for it. Seeing Li Qi like this, he quickly said:

"Okay, okay, okay. I said no, I came back because I discovered the movements of the Demon Sect overseas. Someone wanted to harm our Li family. If it weren't for the fact that the Demon Sect was so vicious and could easily kill an entire family, I, an old man, wouldn't care about that rebellious son! It would be better if he died. It would give me peace of mind if he died!"

As Li Xueren spoke, he also mentioned Li Wenxin.

But when Li Wenxin was mentioned, his expression changed, and he spoke with a glare and seemed to be very angry with Li Wenxin.

Li Qi didn't care about the grudges of his father and grandfather. When he heard about the overseas demon sect, he suddenly became serious and asked quickly:
"Demon Sect? What happened to the Demon Sect?"

"Don't worry about this, kid. Grandpa just answered your question. Shouldn't you call me again now?"

Li Xueren waved his hand, turned his head and stared at Li Qidao.

"…grandfather."

Li Qi had no choice but to shout again.

Seeing Li Xueren’s face smiling like a chrysanthemum, Li Qi understood that this old man was probably obsessed with his grandson.

But this is also very common in this era. The older generation is very caring towards their grandchildren.

Especially since Li Qi is the only child of the Li family, no matter how much Li Xueren dislikes Li Wenxin and Zheng Qiuqing, he must cherish Li Qi, the only child of the Li family.

So his current attitude is understandable.

But if that's the case...

Li Qi's eyes turned, his tone suddenly lowered a bit, and he blinked his big eyes and said to Li Xueren:
"Grandpa, I really want to know about the overseas demon sects. Please tell me."

After saying this, Li Qi almost vomited because of disgust himself, but Li Xueren just fell for it.

He immediately said:
"Okay, okay, anyway, as long as you don't go overseas, it's not a big deal for you, grandpa will tell you..."

He explained to Li Qi while smiling.

What Li Xueren knew was actually not much different from what the six major sects knew.

A secret treasure has appeared in the magic sect, and the overseas magic sects have united together because of the secret treasure, the Cleansing Dust Platform, and are planning to cause trouble for the Great Qi court. Among them, Qiqiao Villa, Tianyi Valley, Jiangzhou Li Family, Yuzhou Iron Palm Gang... and seven or eight other sects, families, and gangs were listed on the list by the magic sect.

The reason is that these family sects have experienced strange phenomena similar to the appearance of the Dichentai.

Regardless of whether this vision is a rumor or a real thing, the people in the Demon Sect must confirm it.

The same is true for the six major sects in this regard.

Let’s not talk about Tianyi Valley for now. Tianyi Valley is one of the six sects. After the valley master came out to declare that there were no rare treasures in their valley, the six sects and the Demon Sect temporarily ignored them.

Other sects do not receive such good treatment.

Since Qiqiao Villa is a first-rate force, all six sects sent at least fourth-rank masters to investigate.

The same is true on the demonic side. A third-rank grandmaster has already entered the Da Qi martial arts world and is within the sphere of influence of Qiqiao Villa.

Li Xueren had been traveling overseas for many years. When he learned about this, he rushed back to Qiqiao Villa as soon as possible, wanting to help... help his beloved grandson overcome the difficulties.

But he didn't expect to see the six major sects quarreling as soon as he arrived, which made him upset.

Only then did he act out of spite and take Li Qi away to protect his beloved grandson first.

No matter whether the six major sects quarrel or fight, as long as they do not harm the Li family, Li Xueren will not care.

As long as Li Qi isn't hurt.

"So, Grandpa, you have seen the rare treasure in person?"

After hearing the purpose of Li Xueren's return this time, Li Qi asked softly.

"Exotic treasure? I haven't seen it. I've seen that group of people from the Demonic Path send a group of geniuses to the Demonic Island every once in a while. Not long after, a group of fourth-grade innates wearing black robes and whose faces cannot be seen appeared on the Demonic Island."

Li Xueren shook his head in response, then laughed and said, "Hey, the number of these guys in black robes with unknown faces is the same as the number of geniuses sent to the Demon Island. Isn't that strange?"

Tianmo Island is one of the top three demonic forces among the twenty-four demonic islands.

It, together with the Ten Thousand Demons Sect and the Blood Demon Cult, are known as the Three Demonic Sects and are a force comparable to the Six Sects.

Just...send the genius to Demon Island?
"Didn't they say that the Dust Cleansing Platform was discovered by the Ten Thousand Poison Sect?"

Li Qi asked in surprise.

Why would the Di Dust Cleansing Platform discovered by the Wan Du Sect send the genius to the Demon Island?
Could it be that this Cleansing Platform was later handed over to the Demon Island for management?

Li Qi was puzzled, but Li Xueren's smile faded a little. He replied:

"I just said that the demons are united now."

"Weren't they always united?"

Aren't the twenty-four overseas islands the product of the union of the magic sects? Why did they come up with a magic sect alliance? If they were to unite, they would have united long ago.

Li Xueren shook his head and said:

“No, although the previous alliance was called an alliance, in reality, each of them was fighting on their own. For their own interests, the demon sects fought each other overseas.

"But now... they have really united. At least before I came out, there were fewer disputes among their various sects. They are also investigating martial artists from the Central Plains. My dear grandson, do you know what this means?"

“…Da Qi is in danger.”

Li Qi replied in a low voice.

The Jianghu is a huge field of interests. No matter whether it is the righteous or the evil, they fight each other all day long, either for the sake of being the best in the world or for martial arts secrets.

This was the case even within the Da Qi martial arts world, with the six factions fighting each other endlessly, and even the sects related to the six factions were not spared.

The magic path was originally like this.

They are even more brutal than those in the righteous fight.

Because places like overseas have few people and few resources. If they want to develop themselves with such limited resources, they have no other way except to rob.

Besides, the magic skills will make people extreme. Once the character becomes extreme, they will show no mercy in a fight.

There are countless demon sects in the Twenty-Four Islands, but how many of them can truly survive?

The righteous sect is engaged in internal strife, and the evil sect is also engaged in internal strife.

As both sides were at loggerheads with each other, the righteous path was still able to barely defeat the evil path.

After all, the righteous will hold back, but the evil will not.

However, the current situation is that the righteous are still fighting among themselves, while the demons have united together because of a dust-purifying platform, stopped their internal friction and fighting, and started to work together to sharpen their knives and attack Da Qi.

If the Da Qi martial arts world does not stop fighting and make preparations, the day when the demonic army invades will not be too far away.

"Hehe, you are worthy of being my good grandson. You have a smart brain."

Li Xueren said, rubbing Li Qi's head with his big hands, and then said:
"So, Grandpa, I'm going to take you to a secluded place to live in seclusion, away from the conflict between good and evil."

This is exactly what Li Xueren thought.

Seeing that the power of the demons is growing and the martial arts world of Da Qi is about to be in a bloody storm, Li Xueren must of course first protect the only child of his Li family.

Let others fight to the death, as long as Li Qi is fine, then his trip back won’t be in vain, right?
As for Li Wenxin?
Humph, let him die!

Just pretend that he is such a rebellious son!
