Chapter 315 - 315 117 The Mu Family's Big Secret

315: Chapter 117: The Mu Family’s Big Secret 315: Chapter 117: The Mu Family’s Big Secret “Master Li Dazhi!

Why have you come?”

“Uncle Li Dazhi!”

“Oh?

Dazhi, what are you doing here?”

The beach instantly livened up.

Li Dazhi, all smiles, came forward and paid his respects to Senior Xu Sheng and his family’s two elders.

Li Ping’an stepped forward and gave a cupped-hand salute to Elder Xiaoyue and Steward Xinhuai Wang.

Xiaoyue, with a cheerful smile, hurried over to Qing Su and continued her efforts to network with the Immortal.

Qing Su still seemed unsure how to communicate with Xiaoyue, merely listening with a smile and nodding occasionally.

Li Ping’an noticed Xiaoyue’s attire today.

She wore a light green dress of simple elegance, her long hair coiled into a graceful bun, appearing much more genteel and not as excessively stunning as before.

In this way, Li Ping’an could surmise that Aunt Yue’s relationship with his father was steadily warming.

Li Dazhi laughed and said, “You all keep drinking, don’t mind me, I need to talk to Ping’an about something!”

Senior Xu Sheng waved his hand grandly, “Go ahead, Dazhi, as your master said, you only think about your son!

Remember to come back for a drink later!”

“No problem!

Xinhuai, come and keep Old Master Xu company for a while!”

Li Dazhi called out, then slipped over to Li Ping’an’s side, pulling him aside.

“Not bad,” Li Dazhi chuckled, “While I’m busy running around the gate, here you are enjoying a little barbecue under the blue sky and white clouds, planning to get some oysters, scallops, and small squid later, aren’t you?”

Li Ping’an laughed, “I was just about to, but then you arrived…

Dad, what brought you here all of a sudden?

Didn’t you say you weren’t stepping out until you achieved Heavenly Immortal status?”

“Hey!”

Li Dazhi raised an eyebrow:

“A half-step Heavenly Immortal, rounded up still counts as a Heavenly Immortal, doesn’t it?

“All three Golden Immortals and the Sect Leader are in seclusion, and there’s no one to oversee me.

“Don’t worry, when I left, I delegated all responsibilities properly.

With two capable Vice Sect Leaders and so many elders looking after things, nothing can go wrong.”

Li Ping’an sighed, “You have great fortune, your going out is no small matter…

Did you find any treasures along the way?”

“No treasures, but I did come across a bit of good fortune.”

Li Dazhi flipped his hand and passed Li Ping’an a spiritual power storing bag containing that White Tiger egg (the eggs of ancient divine beasts are laid).

He laughed and said:

“Previously, I fed this egg quite a few treasures, and it is about to hatch.

You take it and look after it from now on.

“Today, not long after I left the sect’s gate, while I was underground with your Aunt Yue and Xinhuai Wang, we got lost.

Following the ley lines, we stumbled upon an ancient dwelling.

“That dwelling seemed unoccupied for many years.

Behind the dwelling was a Spiritual Spring.

The egg started to move on its own, so I placed it in the spring.

In just a moment, the entire Spiritual Spring was absorbed by the egg.

“I examined it, and the Spiritual Power in this White Tiger egg has more than doubled since then.

“Apart from that, there were no other fortunes.”

Li Ping’an: …

No!

Can you really just stumble upon an abandoned dwelling while walking around?

Li Ping’an pursed his lips tightly, extending his hand into the spiritual power storing bag.

Touching the eggshell with his fingertips, he could feel a faint emotion coming from inside.

Joy, closeness, and a touch of dependency.

Li Ping’an laughed, “Dad, did you come here just to give me this?”

“Of course not.”

Li Dazhi coughed.

He had discussed things thoroughly with Xiaoyue and Xinhuai Wang on the way over, and it was Xiaoyue who had given him the idea.

Li Dazhi said, “Actually, it’s like this.

Didn’t you mention before that you wanted to visit Ningning’s parents at their home?”

“Yeah.”

“I was thinking, if it’s alright, we could bring her parents to the sect gate.

But then, Xinhuai Wang went to check, and it seems…

her mother has fallen seriously ill.

I thought we should visit them together first.”

Li Ping’an was taken aback and immediately asked, “Does Ningning know about this?”

“She doesn’t,” Li Dazhi affirmed seriously, “My idea is not to let Ningning come over for now.

We’ll cure her mother’s illness first, then bring her mother back with us to the mountain.”

Li Ping’an sensed something out of the ordinary.

If it was indeed a serious illness, a single Heavenly Immortal healing pill could surely cure it, yet his father had personally left the mountain and brought only Xiaoyue and Xinhuai Wang.

Xinhuai Wang must have brought back some troubling news from Priestess’s home, and his father must be concerned about the negative impact…

At this moment, having just defeated the second of the Blood Fiend Hall, his father came to find him.

Could it be…

“Dad, could the Priest’s family be involved with the Blood Fiend Hall?”

“Huh?”

Li Dazhi looked completely puzzled:

“No, how did you connect the Blood Fiend Hall with the Priest’s family?

“What the Priest’s family is proudest of is their three generations of Wanyun Sect external disciples, and then Ningning joined the inner gate.

They’re just a small family on the fringe of ordinary society.

“Ping’an, don’t imagine things recklessly!”

“That’s good, that’s good.”

Li Ping’an visibly relaxed:

“Then without further delay, let’s set off.

Shall we request Senior Xu Sheng to come too?”

“That would be best,” Li Dazhi said, “Having a Golden Immortal senior with us will greatly increase our safety.”

Li Ping’an decisively said, “I’ll go ask Senior Xu Sheng, let’s not waste time.

While the fighting here has just ceased, let’s hurry over!”

Li Dazhi agreed, “Right!

If we need Ningning to come, I can send a message to the sect gate at any time and ask a familiar elder to bring Ningning over.”

The father and son quickly reached an agreement.

Li Ping’an rushed over to Xu Sheng and whispered a few words to him privately.

Before long, Xu Sheng, Qing Su, Li Ping’an, along with Li Dazhi, Xiaoyue, and Xinhuai Wang—a total of one Golden Immortal, one Heavenly Immortal, three True Immortals, and one Qi Cultivator from the Heaven and Earth Bridge—rode the clouds towards the southern part of the East Continent.
