Chapter 22
Seeing his ancestral heirloom stolen, Jiang Mo roared angrily, "Old man, that's a family heirloom of the Jiang family! Your shameless act of stealing it is robbery!"
"Can't stand it already? Let me tell you, not only does my Li family want this brand, but you yourself belong to my Li family too." Li Man raised her hand and patted Jiang Mo's face.
"Li Man, don't touch him." Li Xue'er, who was standing to the side, saw Li Man touching Jiang Mo and hurriedly reached out to push Li Man away.
"Li Xue'er, you bitch, how dare you push me!" Li Man raised her hand and slapped Li Xue'er, threatening, "Li Xue'er, do you believe that I can turn you, this beloved superstar, into a worthless piece of trash that everyone despises with just a word?"
Jiang Mo tenderly held Li Xue'er in his arms, touched her face, and glared at Li Man: "Don't force me to hit a woman."
"I'm forcing you. Men, strip Li Xue'er of her clothes. Whoever is quickest gets to play with Li Xue'er." Li Man smiled innocently, uttering words that were worse than those of a beast.
"Get away! Don't touch Xue'er." Jiang Mo held Li Xue'er tightly in his arms.
"Jiang Mo, I told you long ago, once you're in the Li family, you can't just call yourself Young Master Jiang anymore. Stop struggling, can't you just watch the show from the sidelines?" Li Man said, waving her hand. The bodyguards rushed forward and pulled Jiang Mo and Li Xue'er apart.
Jiang Mo was no match for four people, so he could only hold on to Li Xue'er with all his might. He couldn't let Li Xue'er be humiliated, absolutely not!
Ye Ziqing's cold eyes flashed with murderous intent as she lowered her gaze and drew her sword.
"Wait a moment."
Suddenly, Li Nao spoke up.
"Grandpa, why did you call it a halt? People are waiting to see the show," Li Man said, acting coquettishly as she approached Li Nao.
Li Nao: "She is, after all, a member of the Li family. We should hand her over to Grandpa and send her to the inner quarters."
"Send her to the inner quarters, good." Li Xue'er would only suffer more if she fell into her grandfather's hands, so Li Man happily agreed.
Upon hearing Li Nao's words, Jiang Mo looked at the head of the Li family in disbelief. This old man was inhuman; he actually dared to harm his own junior.
Jiang Mo looked at Li Nao with hatred in his eyes and cursed, "You old bastard, my Jiang family will never let you get away with what happened today."
"Your Jiang family is nothing." Li Nao smiled, completely disregarding the Jiang family. "In this world, let alone the small Jiang family, no one will dare to be my enemy, Li Nao."
"Outrageous!"
A clear, cold voice rang out, and Ye Zi leaped down from the rooftop.
"Master." Jiang Mo was so excited when he saw Ye Zi that he almost cried. "Master, you've finally come. Why are you so late? That old man is no human being. He bullied your disciple."
"Yes, it's definitely not human."
Ye Zi waved to Jiang Mo and Li Xue'er, and in the blink of an eye, Jiang Mo and Li Xue'er had been moved behind Ye Zi.
"Witch...witch!" Seeing this scene, the fear in Li Man's memory was activated, and she turned pale with fright. She turned around and hid behind Li Nao. "Grandpa, she...she is that witch. Grandpa, kill her, kill her quickly."
"This is a celestial body!" Li Nao's cloudy eyes gleamed as he stared at Ye Zi with a thirsty look in them.
This is the Immortal Body, the truly immortal Immortal Body! The cultivation method says that as long as one refines the Immortal Body, one can achieve complete immortality, and even become an immortal!
Ye Zi: "Your eyes are disgusting."
As soon as he finished speaking, the spirit sword appeared before Li Nuo and slashed towards his eyes.
Before Li Nao could even close his eyes, everything went black, and black, foul blood kept gushing from his eye sockets.
As soon as the black blood appeared, the entire room was enveloped in a stench of corpses!
Li Man was closest to it, and the stench of the corpse made her vomit.
"My eyes!" Li Nao covered his eyes. "Impossible! My divine skills are complete. No one can hurt me. I am immortal. You can't kill me."
Ye Zi coldly replied, "You're already dead!"
"I won't die. I want to eat you. If I eat you, I can become an immortal." Li Nao searched his body for something and finally pulled out a black bottle from his pocket.
Then he held the bottle devoutly, chanting some kind of spell, "Uru bala".
Ye Zi wouldn't give him time to finish reciting the incantation. With a wave of her hand, the spirit sword pierced through Li Nao's brow, and a large amount of dense Yin energy surged out of Li Nao's body.
Ye Zi created a barrier, enveloping Jiang Mo and Li Xue'er, preventing them from being contaminated by the evil energy.
The spiritual sword released its spiritual light, purifying the evil energy in the air. Li Nao's body grew thinner and thinner until it fell to the ground like a piece of paper and crumbled into powder.
Jiang Mo: "This old monster is indeed not human."
Without flesh and blood, without bones, how can one still be considered human!
Seeing Li Nao reduced to shredded paper, Li Man couldn't believe her eyes. She looked up at Xin Yue beside her and pleaded for help, "Stepmother, what happened to Grandpa? How could this happen? Where is Grandpa?"
Xin Yue feigned panic, squatted down to check the situation, and silently tucked the fallen You Token into her sleeve.
The yin energy in the Li family courtyard began to dissipate. Ye Zi raised her eyes and saw a phantom flash by amidst the yin energy receding towards the back of the house.
Ye Zi turned around and saw that where Li Nao had just fallen, only Li Man remained.
"One escaped." Ye Zi flew to the back courtyard, completely overlooking this thing, which was hidden quite well, and Ye Zi hadn't noticed it at all.
"Master." Jiang Mo watched his master fly away and wanted to chase after him.
Li Xue'er grabbed Jiang Mo. The scene just now was too bizarre, and Li Xue'er was frightened. But looking at the chaos in the Li family, she forced herself to calm down and said, "Jiang Mo, let's leave the Li family first. If we stay, we will only be a burden to your master."
"Oh, it seems so." After saying that, Jiang Mo took Li Xue'er's hand and started to walk out.
Suddenly, remembering something, Jiang Mo turned around again.
“Jiang Mo.” Li Xue’er looked at Jiang Mo in confusion.
Jiang Mo walked up to Li Man and said, "I never hit women, but you are heartless and don't deserve to be human. You really deserve to be hit."
Jiang Mo raised his hand and slapped Li Man twice hard: "One is to return Xue'er's body, and the other is that you dared to have the idea of ruining Xue'er. I said my Jiang family will not let this go. Your grandfather is gone, and there are you and your family. You have done so many sins, and you should pay the price!"
Seeing that Jiang Mo still wanted to stand up for her, Li Xue'er went up and grabbed Jiang Mo's hand, patting it: "Let's go, don't you mind getting your hands dirty by hitting her."
Looking at Li Xue'er's swollen face, Jiang Mo said guiltily, "Xue'er, it's my fault for being incompetent. I will follow my master to cultivate diligently in the future and I will definitely be able to protect you."
Li Xueer: "Yes, I believe you."
"Jiang Mo, I am the eldest daughter of the Li family. You should like me." Li Man couldn't understand and looked aggrieved.
"This is utterly unreasonable and beyond redemption."
Jiang Mo felt nauseous staying there even for a second longer. Holding Li Xue'er's hand, and amidst Li Man's devastating cries behind them, Jiang Mo left the Li family home without turning his head.
Some people just look like human beings, with a human-shaped shell, but no one knows what they are really like.
Tianlong Pavilion
Luo Yi was organizing documents when she heard the door open. She looked up and saw Luo Hengzhi pushing the door open and entering.
"Boss, why are you back? Did Master come too?" Luo Yi craned his neck to look behind Luo Hengzhi, but there was no one there, only Luo Hengzhi returned alone.
Ignoring Luo Yi's probing gaze, Luo Hengzhi placed Long Bao on the sofa and asked, "How do I guide Qi into my body?"
Luo Yi realized something and exclaimed excitedly, "Boss, you can cultivate too?"
Luo Yi quickly took out the cultivation manual Ye Zi had given him from his storage bag and handed it over: "Boss, it's written clearly here, it's very simple, just follow the steps to practice it."
"Is that a storage bag?" Luo Hengzhi looked at the palm-sized bag in Luo Yi's hand, but then pulled out a thick manual.
Luo Yi shook the small bag in her hand: "Yes, it was given by the junior uncles. It's not as big as the 100 square meters that Master gave to the eldest brother. Mine is only 10 square meters, but it's enough to store snacks."
Luo Hengzhi looked down at the ring on his hand and tried to sense Ye Zi's location. He discovered that Ye Zi was no longer at Lingju Temple, but had gone to the Li family's old house.
Ye Zi wouldn't go to the Li family for no reason. Before Luo Hengzhi entered Lingju Temple, she felt that Li Nao was not right. Of course, at that time she hadn't thought about demons and monsters, but she was sure that Li Nao's body was definitely not good.
But after entering Lingju Temple and learning more, Luo Hengzhi thought that Li Nao's appearance clearly indicated that he had used some kind of evil magic. Ye Zi's visit to the Li family at this time must mean that something had happened to Li Nao.
"Ye Zi is currently at the Li family's old residence. Go there immediately to find out what happened to the Li family. If Li Nao is in trouble, then we can take action against the Li family."
Because of the Daoist Couple Contract, Luo Hengzhi can know where Ye Zi is at any time, and Ye Zi also knows where he is.
Luo Hengzhi sensed that Ye Zi was at the Li family's house, and Ye Zi also received Luo Hengzhi's current location at the same time.
"Don't worry, boss. We've been wanting to get rid of those parasites and scoundrels at the Li family's old house for a long time." Luo Yi was furious when he recalled how the Li family had humiliated Luo Hengzhi by posting her on a substitute marriage website for 2 million yuan. He had wanted to deal with them for a long time.
Luo Yi took the car keys and went out.
"Master, can I eat the things on the table?" Long Bao looked at the fruit on the plate, smelling its delicious aroma, and asked softly.
Luo Hengzhi rubbed Longbao's big head: "If you want to eat anything in the future, just tell Luo Yi and he will buy it for you."
"Okay, thank you, Master. I'm not a glutton like Fire Phoenix. I eat very little and am easy to feed." Long Bao hugged the plump grapes, his mouth covered in juice.
Luo Hengzhi picked up a tissue to wipe Long Bao's mouth. He didn't care about the many spiritual fruits in the spatial secret realm, but he did care about these grapes.
“Long Bao, since you are a dragon, you should have profound cultivation. Why is it that besides flying, you don’t seem to have any other amazing abilities?” Luo Hengzhi asked, staring at Long Bao with a probing gaze.
Don't expose someone's shortcomings, and don't hit a dragon in the face. When Longbao heard its master's question, it felt like it had been slapped in the face. The sweet grapes stuck on its tongue instantly became tasteless.
Should he tell his master that he used the dragon clan's precognitive dream to obtain his master's information in order to go to the realm of gods to find his father, which led to this series of staged accidents and contracts?
However, having precognitive dreams always comes at a price, and the price he paid was having his cultivation locked up for three years!
That's why Long Bao was reverted to his clown-like appearance at birth. He wasn't actually that ugly, and with another year of cultivation, he could completely detach from his fetal body and transform into a celestial dragon, looking incredibly handsome and domineering. But now, there's no way around it; he'll have to wait four years to become good-looking.
So, unable to tell the truth, Long Bao began to deceive his master: "I was in a slumber in the space-time rift. I have just awakened and have not had time to cultivate, so I have no cultivation. However, as long as I wait for three years, my cultivation will greatly increase, and I will be able to transform into a true dragon in the fourth year."
