Chapter 10 Parents' Past

"You bastard!" Luo Xiao landed in front of Luo Tianzong and slapped him hard. "Xiao Li is your niece, you have such a vicious heart!"

Luo Xiao's whole body was trembling slightly, and he was obviously very angry.

The old man showed no mercy this time. Luo Tianzong staggered a few steps and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He lowered his head slightly to hide the sinister look in his eyes. After a moment, he raised his head and said in a cold voice, "Dad, it was Luo Li who wanted to kill my Shuang'er!"

After saying this, he picked up Luo Shuang'er who was unconscious beside him.

Luo Shuang'er's hair was disheveled, her face was red and swollen, her breathing was weak, and most importantly, there was no fluctuation of her spiritual power at all.

Luo Xiao was startled and subconsciously looked at Luo Li who was blocked behind him. The little girl behind him was also a little embarrassed at the moment, but her eyes were clear, and there was no trace of her previous ignorance in them.

"Xiao Li, you..."

Luo Xiao's lips trembled, and an incredible thought appeared in his mind.

"Yes, I'm not stupid anymore."

He looked past Luo Xiao at Luo Tianzong's sinister gaze and smiled frivolously, "So, I will personally take back every bit of care that Second Uncle has shown me."

"You!" Luo Tianzong was furious, but he didn't dare to act rudely in front of the old man. Luo Li, just wait for me!

Luo Xiao looked at the undercurrent between the two and had a rough guess in his mind.

Turning around and looking at Luo Tianzong with disappointment in his eyes, he sighed softly and took out a pill from his space ring, "This is a holy pill that can save Luo Shuang'er from death."

"Just let her take it. Once I figure out what's going on, I'll give you an explanation."

Luo Tianzong gritted his teeth. This old guy was clearly biased towards Luo Li. If he knew that Shuang'er sent people to kill Luo Li, he would probably throw them to feed the monsters.

"My son knows."

Even though he wanted to cut Luo Li into pieces in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He took the pill and flew away with Luo Shuang'er in his arms.

Luo Li didn't relax her tense back until Luo Tianzong left. She spat out a mouthful of blood and half-knelt on the ground.

Luo Xiao was startled and quickly took out a healing pill and put it into Luo Li's mouth, "Xiao Li, are you hurt?"

"Grandpa, I'm fine."

Luo Li casually wiped the blood from the corner of her lips and sat cross-legged to regulate her breathing.

The quality of the pill Luo Xiao gave was not low. After a while, Luo Li felt that the spiritual power running around in her body had calmed down.

He opened his eyes, met Luo Xiao's worried gaze, and smiled, "I'm really fine."

Seeing that she was fine, Luo Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, then said seriously, "Xiao Li, what happened between you and Luo Shuang'er? Also, how did you recover your sanity, and how are you able to practice?"

Luo Li saw Luo Xiao asking a series of questions in one breath and sighed helplessly, "I met a master in the Nightmare Ghost Forest. He said that we are destined to be together."

Luo Xiao was shocked when he heard this, "I think he is a very powerful hidden master."

"But Li'er, why did you go to the Nightmare Forest alone?"

Although Nightmare Ghost Forest is not far from Luo City, Xiaoli has never been out of Luo City since she was a child.

Luo Li did not hide anything and told every good thing that Luo Shuang'er and Luo Tianzong had done in the past.

After listening to Luo Li's story, Luo Xiao was furious, "Luo Shuang'er! How dare she attack you!"

"Oh my little Li, you've suffered!"

Before Luo Li could react, Luo Xiao embraced her in a bear hug.

"Wow, grandpa is sorry for you!"

Luo Xiao cried uncontrollably, tears and snot streaming down his face.

The strength of a Spirit Emperor is extraordinary, and Luo Li's face gradually turned red.

Grandpa, if you continue to hold her in your arms, your beloved granddaughter will be strangled to death by you even if she doesn’t die in Luo Tianzong’s hands!

"City Lord!"

Receiving Luo Li's look for help, Qing Gu reacted quickly and stepped forward to pull Luo Xiao away.

Luo Xiao was not annoyed and patted Luo Li's head. "You wait here, I'm going to kill Luo Shuang'er to vent your anger!"

"Grandpa!" Luo Li knew he wasn't joking and quickly pulled him back. "I'm able to practice cultivation now, so I'll take revenge myself!"

Looking at the high-spirited and unrestrained Luo Li, Luo Xiao was dazed for a moment.

As expected of his daughter, she looks exactly like his father when he was young.

Thinking of Luo Qi, Luo Xiao's eyes dimmed slightly, and a myriad of thoughts surged in his eyes. That was his proudest and most beloved child...

"Walk."

Without waiting for Luo Li to ask, Luo Xiao picked her up directly and landed in the yard a moment later.

"Xiao Li, come in with me."

Watching Luo Xiao walk into the study, Luo Li pursed her lips and followed him.

Luo Xiao's study is very simple. Apart from a bookshelf, a table, and a painting hanging on the wall.

There is a man and a woman in the painting. The man is holding a baby in his arms. They are looking at the baby with tenderness and affection in their eyes.

"This is..." Although the words came out with doubt, the lingering dependence and attachment in Luo Li's heart showed without a doubt that these were her parents.

Luo Qi and Mu Wanqing.

"These are your parents."

Luo Xiao took the painting down and spread it flat on the table.

"Your father, Luo Qi, is the most dazzling genius in the entire Tianyuan Continent in the past thousand years!"

When he said this, his face was full of excitement and his eyes were full of pride.

"I know. My father achieved the Great Spiritual Master level at the age of fifteen, and before he turned nineteen, he was already a One-Star Spiritual Emperor."

A trace of warmth surged in Luo Li's chest. Luo Qi was definitely a genius who could crush all the spiritual masters in the Tianyuan Continent!

"Yes." Luo Xiao nodded and continued, "When your father was twenty years old, he went out to gain experience and met your mother, Mu Wanqing."

"Your father fell in love with your mother at first sight and pursued her for half a year before finally getting her."

Talking about this past event, Luo Xiao's eyes lit up with a smile. This young genius who had never suffered any setback since he was born, fell for the girl he liked.

"Six months after they got married, Wanqing suddenly confessed to me that she was actually the eldest daughter of Qingfeng Valley in the Gods Continent. She possessed a rare treasure and had come to Tianyuan Continent through the space rift to avoid marriage."

Continent of Gods?

Luo Li was shocked. It was rumored that the passage between Tianyuan Continent and the Continent of Gods had not been opened for tens of thousands of years.

"Three years after we got married, Wanqing gave birth to you. This painting was left behind at that time."

Luo Li reached out and touched the man and woman in the painting. At this moment, they thought they would be happy like this for the rest of their lives.

"However, when you were one year old..." Luo Xiao's eyes flashed with grief, and his fists clenched unconsciously. "I don't know who leaked the news, but people from Qingfeng Valley also came to Tianyuan Continent and found your mother."

"That was a crushing battle. Although the power of the laws suppressed their strength to the level of Half-Step Divine King, your father had just broken through to the level of Spiritual Emperor. He could only watch helplessly as your mother was taken away after being injured."

"Grandpa, your injury is also..."

Luo Xiao was seriously injured. Although he was a one-star Spirit Emperor, he could only exert the strength of a seven-star Spirit King. He had to go into seclusion frequently to stabilize his injuries.
