He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

"Father, I'm leaving tonight. Time waits for no one. My fellow disciples have already laid a trap."

"Father, after this mission, I will be returning to the sect. Please take care of my elder brother here. I will continue to search for medicinal pills once I arrive at the sect..."

Liu Yu appeared very composed. His elder brother had been managing the family with their father for years, and while doing these things, he also had to cultivate himself. One can imagine how difficult that must have been.

"Father, the day I advance to the Foundation Establishment stage will be the day the Li family is destroyed!"

Liu Yu didn't say these words aloud, but kept them to himself. It was too early to say them now. Their mother had died at the hands of the Li family, but their father had been enduring it all these years.

The ancestor is nearing his end, but the situation with the Li family is still unclear. The ancestor has twenty years left.

Time is running out for him. Within twenty years, he must advance to the Foundation Establishment stage. Only then will the Liu family have a chance to annex the Li family and become the true power holders of Ya City.

This is also the meaning of his hard work in cultivation. However, he cannot sit in Yacheng all day long. He is a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator in the sect. If he wants to advance further, he must fight for the interests of the sect and his family. Isn't that also fighting for some interests for himself?

"Yes, second son, you've grown up and become more sensible. I've been collecting the five elemental spiritual items you need, all so that one day you can reach a realm that I myself have never been able to reach..."

Liu Yun had placed all his hopes on his second son. While the eldest son's talent for cultivating immortality was not as good as the second son's, the eldest son was indeed much better than the second son in managing the family and controlling people's hearts.

One scholar and one warrior—that's the true sign of a family's prosperity.

"Oh, by the way, I heard from Lao Liu that you let a stranger into your house?" Liu Yun's tone suddenly became serious. He actually wanted to criticize his second brother for this. Letting a stranger into the house without knowing the other party's bottom line was a bit too hasty.

What if he's from the Li family? Coming to test the boss's strength? Wouldn't that be a bad thing?

"Hehe, Father, I can tell at a glance that this young man is no ordinary person. Perhaps his background is much more powerful than we imagine."

"Father, do you know that this person's cultivation is extremely solid? His every move reveals no fluctuation of spiritual power."

"This shows that this person has a strong control over spiritual power. Not only that, the sword on his back is also of the highest quality. I recognized it as a treasure at a glance."

"But this person doesn't know how to restrain himself. Such a treasure should be put away."

"It is conceivable that this person must be a scion of a prestigious family or the offspring of a prominent figure in a sect."

"Father, I've seen many such people in the sect. Most of the elders' children are actually just like him."

"To have a more solid cultivation level than me at such a young age, Father, you can only imagine!"

Liu Yu continued to speak at length about what he believed.

In fact, Liu Yun also saw Xu Yi, but he didn't go to greet him or anything. There was no need, and it was better not to have any contact with him for the time being.

Liu Yun actually felt that what his second son said made sense. This person had an extraordinary temperament, unlike ordinary people. This kind of aura could not be faked.

"Since that's the case, let's do it your way!" Liu Yun felt that both of his sons actually had their own strengths, but his eldest son... sigh.

Thinking of this, Liu Yun aged considerably in an instant, and even the joy brought by his second son was overwhelmed.

"Dad, don't overwork yourself. Eldest brother isn't feeling well. You need to support the family now," Liu Yu said softly, supporting Liu Yun who was about to faint.

So much has happened in the family these days, but the Li family hasn't made any moves. Instead, they've brought a lot of treasures to our door, ostensibly to help our eldest son with his illness. But what their true intentions are remains a mystery.

"Father, you should rest now."

After Liu Yu helped Liu Yun to a relatively safe location, he prepared to leave and was just about to reach the door when...

But then came a series of hurried footsteps outside the door.

When Liu Yu opened the door, he was surprised to see Liu Dengyun, the housekeeper.

"Butler Liu, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?" Liu Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Second Young Master, that distinguished guest said he's going to treat the Eldest Young Master's illness, so I've come specifically to ask the Master for permission." Liu Dengyun dared not hide anything; he was now just a messenger, and he was well aware of his role.

"Oh? He has this ability? Dad, what do you think?" Liu Yu turned his head. His father could definitely hear this conversation. They were both cultivators, so their hearing was still good.

"Hmm, we can give it a try. Our distinguished guest comes from a big city, so perhaps he has his own unique insights on this matter." Liu Yun didn't actually have high expectations, because he had already consulted countless famous doctors.

The ancestor also examined it and determined that it was damage to the soul. The ancestor was at the Foundation Establishment stage, but there were no Foundation Establishment stage cultivation techniques in his family. All of his techniques were based on his own understanding, so he simply did not have any techniques for healing the soul.

Even the ancestor was at a loss.

This requires a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator who is proficient in the soul. There are not many people who cultivate immortality. Body refinement is easy, and most people refine their bodies. The Liu family has some influence in Yacheng, but in some larger cities, the Liu family is just a small family.

Not to mention finding a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator who is proficient in soul techniques; that's practically a pipe dream. But the Liu family is still searching. They can't just give up because they can't find one. If they can't even persevere with something as simple as this, then the Liu family is truly pathetic.

The eldest brother has made many contributions to the family, and we cannot give up just because there are no results yet.

"Alright, Butler Liu, I'll go with you!" Liu Yu still wanted to see this mysterious person; he had a strong presence and was definitely not a local.

......

"Young master, the master has agreed. Please come with me."

Standing in front of Xu Yi's guest room, Liu Dengyun spoke respectfully. He had just heard the master and the second young master address this person as an honored guest, so this person's status and position must be even more powerful than he had imagined. Such a person must not be offended.

Upon hearing the sound, Xu Yi straightened his clothes, then went out and saw the handsome young man again.

Upon meeting Xu Yi, Liu Yu smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "I am Liu Yu, the second young master of the Liu family, and an inner disciple of the Wind and Fire Sect. May I ask your name?"

"My name is Xu Yi, a wandering cultivator without any sect or school."

"Oh? Fellow Daoist Xu, you're just a rogue cultivator?"

Liu Yu naturally didn't believe such nonsense. How could a rogue cultivator have such an aura? There's always a limit to joking, isn't there?

However, Liu Yu could understand that these people were often unwilling to let others know their true identities.
