There are seven thousand people on Ziyang Peak, and more will come in the future. This is your family. No one in Black Wind Stronghold will ever look down on you. If Xie Xiao succeeds, it will be because of your family's strength that he will value you.

Li Ruo was taken aback, a warm feeling flowing through her heart. So that's what her grandmother thought; she had thought far ahead for her.

Looking at the wrinkled old lady, her eyes welled up with tears.

That's actually what she thought too.

Even if she marries Xie Xiao, her power will not stop growing.

She lived up to Xie Xiao's expectations, as well as those of her family and friends.

"Don't worry, look at Liao Fusheng, Yang Huahua, Lao Wang, Chen He, Dayu Xiaoyu, Xu Dafu, aren't they all capable? Don't you have confidence in your own people?"

Li Ruo: "I just—well, I'm a little panicked about marriage."

Grandma Li smiled. "I understand. Once bitten, twice shy. But Xie Xiao is different from Song Zhijing. But you have to walk the path of being a wife yourself, just like you have to give birth to your own child. But Grandma will be watching over you as long as I'm alive, as well as your father, mother and brother in heaven."

Tears welled in the corners of her eyes, as if she were looking outside, but her gaze was distant and unsure of where she was looking.

at night.

Li Ruo had a dream.

"Ruo'er is indeed worthy of being her father's daughter; you tamed such a spirited little colt in just one day." A man laughed heartily.

"That's right. Father must keep his promise and will start teaching me archery tomorrow."

"Haha, of course..."

"Ruo'er, your father is going to war."

"Hmph, you promised to stay home with me for two months, but it's only been a month and a half."

"Father promises you, I'll be back in six months."

But soon after, a shrill voice, sharp and piercingly loud, announced, "The Li family father and son died on the battlefield, their bodies never to be found. I am deeply saddened and grant..."

"Father!" Li Ruo suddenly sat up in bed, panting heavily, and it took her a while to realize that she was dreaming.

I even broke out in a sweat.

Her heartbeat didn't calm down for a long time.

She saw the man's face; it was the same face she remembered from the original owner of the body—her father's face.

At this moment, a large ship passing Guiyang and heading towards the Xiang River was speeding along.

A black and red banner fluttered high in the wind on the boat, bearing the large character "Li".

A burly man in armor stood at the bow of the ship, his eyes radiating a sharp aura.
