Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

"It's the same old stuff. I'm really tired of it."

"A genius like you naturally doesn't understand the pressure we're under." Hua Tianming said, "I want to take my daughter back. I hope you won't stop me. What I just said was just to make sense of it!"

Bai Yu burped, his expression calm and his heart steady. "I'm very familiar with Captain Zhou from the Changye Division. If you want to use force, you can try."

Hua Tianming looked at the young man. Normally, young people tend to be soft-hearted and not tough. Moreover, there is a huge contrast in temperament even between geniuses and adults.

But Bai Yu's attitude was consistent with his perception of an adult office worker: a seasoned veteran in the workplace, a bad person who even the boss couldn't easily control.

Don't eat soft or hard food.

After a brief standoff with Bai Yu, Hua Tianming received a call. After a few words, he said to the other end of the phone, "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, he raised his voice: "Li'er! I know you're awake... Just now on the phone, your grandfather is dying. Are you still insisting on not going back with me?!"

no respond.

He looked at the closed bedroom door, then at Bai Yu: "I'll come again tomorrow."

After saying that, he left.

Before leaving, he was still as vigorous as ever... But for Bai Yu, who had seen many storms, it was nothing.

He closed the door and shouted, "The person has left."

The bedroom door was pushed open and two neatly dressed girls walked out.

"Where's Hua Li?"

"Curled in bed like a quail."

"That's probably fear."

"Scared?" Qin Xuezao raised an eyebrow: "She is clearly laughing wildly."

Bai Yu: "?"

"Ahem, I'm not, I didn't." Hua Li walked out of the room, still in his pajamas, pretending to be pitiful and said, "I'm scared! So, please continue to take care of me, a poor, helpless but edible little cutie! I can wash the dishes!"

"Go wash up first, then eat." Su Ruoli said gently. She really didn't care about all this.

Bai Yu asked, "Your father just said that your grandfather is seriously ill. Don't you plan to go back to see him?"

"Of course I don't plan to go back." Hua Li held a newly opened toothbrush in his mouth, his eyes reflected in the mirror silent and calm: "Because my grandfather passed away several years ago."

Chapter 197 Defense Master

"Your grandfather is dead?" Qin Xuezao was surprised. "I hadn't heard of this before I fell into a coma."

"I don't have one either. If it was news of the death of a high-level transcendent, it would be published in newspapers and the media."

As Su Ruoli spoke, she picked up the fried dough sticks that Bai Yu had not finished eating from his plate. Her movements were so smooth that Hua Li looked subtle.

"Of course it won't be published, because my grandfather is still on life support." Hua Li explained while drinking rice porridge.

"What do you mean?" Bai Yu was about to pick up the remaining half of the fried dough stick, but Qin Xuezhao took it away.

He cast a questioning look at her, "Aren't you finished eating?"

Qin Xuezao said confidently, "I'm not full!"

Su Ruoli asked, "I don't quite understand. What's your grandfather's condition?"

"Quantum state? Schrödinger's cat box?" Bai Yu frowned, undecided. Quantum mechanics could not be explained, and there was parallel time and space.

"It's not that complicated. It's just a matter of prolonging life through various means."

Hua Li smiled, a smile that revealed bitterness, repression, and unspeakable anger. "It's already been four years now... I've tried countless methods, consulted countless miracle doctors, and spent countless amounts of money, all just to make an old man die with regrets."

"In four years, Grandpa has never woken up once. Although he is still alive, he is only alive on the surface."

"He should have passed away four years ago, but his family kept him alive until now. How painful it must have been."

"If they really did it out of love for Grandpa, then perhaps it could be explained."

"But look at their attitude now. What's the difference between how they treat me and how they treat grandpa?"

"It's just that I need the golden signboard of a transcendent for the family business. Like my grandfather, I am here to maintain the prosperity of the family..."

“Supplies.”

Hua Li said this and took a mouthful of rice porridge, swallowing the heat that was enough to burn his throat.

She whispered, "I don't want to be like Grandpa. It makes me feel scared."

"You're such a piece of shit!" Qin Xuezao slammed the table, his eyes revealing anger. "You're treating your closest relatives like this! You're worse than a beast!"

"This is probably a decision forced upon us." Su Ruoli sighed softly, "I've also heard many similar stories from my parents. Although what the Hua family did was wrong, it's better than..."

"The Ruan family."

Bai Yu also thought about the things he had experienced before. It was indeed an unsolvable proposition. If he had not been able to rewrite history, Ruan Qingshan would have turned to ashes and Ruan Qingxue would be alone and lonely.

It's all a choice to decide.

It is obvious that the Hua family does not want to become an Uchiha like the Ruan family. Between the crisis of genocide and the unfilial son, they chose the latter.

Just continue to make things difficult for your father and son, what else can you do?

Bai Yu couldn't help but gasp at the thought: "He's quite good at relying on his parents and children."

After Hua Li finished eating, he lay down on the chair and said, "Anyway, I won't be going home these days. I'll just live, eat and sleep with Ruoli. They can't do anything to me!"

Su Ruoli smiled gently: "That won't do."

Hua Li suddenly revealed a pitiful look: "Ruoli!"

"I still have things to do, so I can't stay with you all the time." Su Ruoli touched her hair: "Even if you can hide until the college entrance examination, can you hide forever?"

"Yes, the best way to defeat fear is..." Bai Yu echoed.

"Isn't it okay if I pay and hire you?"

Hua Li found his backpack and took out a lot of things from it. Just then, a metal box fell in front of Bai Yu's feet.

"what is this?"

I bent down to pick up the box. After dropping it, the lock loosened and the box opened automatically. Inside was a letter.

There was a line of words written on the front of the letter.

'To Lin Haiya'

Qin Xuezhao didn't react much when he saw the name, but Su Ruoli showed a hint of surprise: "Lin Haiya?"

"you know?"

"I know him... I'd rather say I've heard of him," Su Ruoli explained. "Lin Haiya's name isn't universally known, but it's certainly a household name. He's one of the most talented people in the world today, nicknamed 'Sea-Slashing Madman,' and officially recognized as one of the Great Xia Haoyue."

There is the bright moon and the scorching sun again.

Bai Yu touched his chin and said, "A Haoyue-level genius, is this letter addressed to him?"

"Grandpa wrote it to him. I helped write it for him, but I didn't finish it." Hua Li looked at the iron box and sat back in her chair. She had already read it countless times and felt a bit tired and resigned. "I only wrote the first few sentences. Naturally, there's no way I can send it. I guess I won't have another chance in this lifetime. Four years have passed and Grandpa is gone. There's no point in keeping this letter."

Bai Yu asked, "Can I take a look?"

"Whatever. I'm planning on burying it with Grandpa anyway, so I won't send it out."

Bai Yu picked up the letter and unfolded it.

Indeed, there is only the first line of text.

"I wonder if my friend Lin still remembers this old man, Hua Yuzhang. It's been three months since we last met, and I still reminisce about that night's confrontation with a sigh... You, the younger generation, have risen, your genius is like a sword, yet you defeated the elders' pursuit of the Tao. How deplorable, sad, and hateful it is! I..."

The conversation stopped abruptly here, without any follow-up.

Just as Bai Yu finished reading this paragraph, a surge of energy surged out from the letter.

He saw this scene.

……

A full moon night.

The old man lay weakly on the sickbed, basking in the moonlight, staring at the ceiling with increasingly dazed eyes.

He held on to what little strength he had left.

He said to his beloved granddaughter, "Grandpa wants to write a letter. I'll tell him and you write it."

The girl immediately took out a pen and paper, wiped the corners of her eyes, and nodded vigorously.

The old man began to speak, his strength growing weaker.

"It's been three months since we last met, and I still remember that night's battle with a sigh..."

He looked at the moonlight outside the window, and in an instant he returned to the Hua family martial arts training ground three months ago.

The young man stood sideways in the moonlight, holding a knife. His whole body was like a knife. Just standing there was enough to split the falling moonlight into two.

Sharp, flexible, and refined.

There is no doubt that the old man was defeated in this battle.

His expression also revealed endless regret and lament, as if he was unwilling to accept the outcome. He clutched his increasingly painful chest and began to chant, "You, the younger generation, have risen, your genius is like a knife, yet you have defeated the elders' pursuit of the Tao. How lamentable, tragic, and hateful it is! I..."

His voice suddenly stopped and he covered his heart with his hands.

The knife wound left three months ago pierced his chest and also left a hidden wound. Now the emotional excitement caused internal injuries.

The contents of the letter were not completed.

The girl dropped her pen and paper and rushed to the bed, calling out to the old man. However, crying and shouting could not bring back his life that had long since passed away.

Lying on the sickbed, he passed away with regret in his heart.

……

The scenery faded away, and the white elm was also pulled out of it, and the flaming words formed a structure in front of my eyes.

[Relic: Unfinished suicide note]

[Two-Star Heroic Spirit: Defense Grandmaster]

【Status: Full Movie】

[Contract Failure]

[The afterimage of the heroic spirit has become history]

[Heroic Spirit Contract has been recorded, currently 2 times]

The prompt has sounded, and the attribute in front of me is actually a relic of a heroic spirit.

To be judged as a heroic spirit by the system, there must be something extraordinary about them.

Both Mr. Tongyu and Mr. Liu Huai have had considerable and rich experiences in their lives.

On the contrary, the end of Hua Yuzhang's life seemed very ordinary. He died with the regret of losing to the younger generation.

He died before he could even finish writing his suicide note.

Bai Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Moreover, this Heroic Spirit is in a full shadow state... It does not need to be cultivated. As long as you get it, it will be a complete Heroic Spirit.

Would you like to try it?

Bai Yu looked at Hua Li... This girl's current condition was probably closely related to his grandfather's death.

If I can help her and gain a two-star heroic spirit at the same time, I won't suffer any loss.

Although Heroic Relics are common, two-star ones are rare.

And... Grandmaster of Defense.

Grandmaster, not master.

Generally speaking, martial arts masters refer to masters of the fourth level of transcendence.

The level of a two-star hero is generally level 40. In other words, he is a master who is on par with the fourth-level extraordinary level with the strength of the third-level extraordinary level. He has been immersed in this realm for many years and has a profound foundation.

The title given by the Chronicle of Heroes is probably correct.

A heroic spirit of this level should have some magical skill no matter how you look at it.
