mother
Ling Li's trembling expression suddenly froze, and he instantly looked behind him, but there was no woman behind him, not even anyone.
This little guy...who is he calling
The nanny who was taking care of her changed her face slightly when she heard this. She even came over to salute and said in a panic: "Master Protector, please atone for your sins. I have tried my best to teach the young master, but the young master is now ten months old and still can only call me mother." ,this… "
Normal babies can already talk a lot when they are this old, and some smart ones can even call them daddy at seven months old. She has brought many babies with her over the years, and she has never seen such a stupid one, except for "Mom." ", won't say anything.
"I understand, you go down first."
Fang Yuan waved his hand, he was not surprised by this situation.
After the wet nurse left, Fang Yuan stepped into the room and picked up the child. He moved very skillfully. Ling Li followed behind and hesitated several times, but in the end he relaxed. For some reason, he gave up asking for a hug. child's thoughts.
When Fang Yuan saw this, his expression did not change. He lowered his head and looked at the restless little guy in his arms. His eyes, which were originally bone-chilling, were gentle but seemed to be overflowing at this moment. "I'll name him Nian."
"read… "
Ling Li murmured to himself in a daze, it was obvious who he was thinking of.
"Li'er originally told me not to tell you anything."
Fang Yuan spoke very softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the little guy, but the unwillingness shown in his words was enough to shake Ling Li's mind.
"But I'm not willing to give in! Why?! She was born with a miserable life, and it's okay if she doesn't think about herself in this life. Yet she has silently done so much for you, yet you can accept it without any knowledge and heartlessness, even I feel resentful towards her because of her disappearance!”
Ling Li's breath was suffocated, his voice was hard, he shook his head and murmured: "Resent? How could I complain? I just..."
He just missed her so much that after speeding up the destruction of the Dongfang family and throwing away the heavy burden, he embarked on the road to find Su Li without hesitation.
But these words, after all, pale in comparison to what he has done for Su Li over the years.
Fang Yuan snorted and sneered: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Do you think that the Dongfang Family is so easy to destroy? If Su Li hadn't taken action in advance, you would have been destroyed by the Xiao Shen Palace behind the Dongfang Family. There’s not even a scum left.”
"Xiao Shen Palace?!"
Ling Li was horrified and couldn't help but raise his voice, "The Xiao Shen Palace in the true spirit world?"
A year ago, Xiao Shen Palace was suddenly destroyed by mysterious forces. All kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, and there were also many rumors among the Hidden Demon Sect. At that time, he guessed that Gui Gu was probably behind it, but now according to Fang Yuan's words, It's actually
"True spiritual building?"
Ling Li's eyes flashed, yes, only a mysterious and unpredictable force like Zhenlingzhu could destroy Xiaoshen Palace overnight.
The coldness on Fang Yuan's face became even worse, "Who said it was a true spirit building? Ling Li, today I will let you know how much you owe Su Li!"
Ling Li took a deep breath, and then bowed deeply to Fang Yuan's slightly stunned expression.
"Please tell me, tell me everything! Otherwise, I will not be able to sleep at night and have no peace in this life!"
Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "Even if you may be in more pain after knowing the truth, do you still want to listen?"
Ling Li's pupils shrank, but he nodded without hesitation.
"Brother Fang, speak out!"
Fang Yuan was silent for a moment, his expression softened slightly,
"Su Li, you saw the right person."
After saying that, he glanced at the little guy who was still sucking his fingers, "Although I really don't want to admit it, but... he is your flesh and blood, why don't you hug him and take him back?"
Ling Li shook his head in pain and said solemnly: "I... am not qualified. I will wait until I hear what you have to say before I make any plans."
Fang Yuan was startled, "That's fine."
After a while, the quiet room in the valley courtyard.
Yin Xuetong served tea to the two of them, took a look at Ling Li who looked haggard, and turned around without saying anything.
There was silence in the room for a long time. Fang Yuan seemed to have organized his words and finally spoke:
"One thing you should know is that the maid next to you, Ling Xian, almost killed Li'er by spreading false news. Li'er's only aunt Su Yue also lost her life because of this. One body and two lives."
Ling Li gently covered his chest with his right hand and nodded silently. Bringing up Fang Yuan's past is no less than reopening his scabbed wound.
Fang Yuan had no sympathy for him and continued coldly: "But you only blamed Su Li for killing Ling Xian, but you didn't care about Su Li. Her injuries were equally serious, and the severity was beyond your imagination. Those pills you sent were of no use at all, and the doctor even asked us to prepare for her funeral at that time!"
Ling Li's pupils suddenly shrank and he said in shock: "How could it be possible? Later..."
"You want to say that Su Li is still fine after that?"
Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Master Ling, use your brain to think carefully, and don't let me look down on you."
Ling Li pursed his lips slightly and said in a low voice: "Li'er is a little abnormal. She seems to... don't dare to use Xuan Gong easily. It's just that I was busy with the Hidden Demon Cult at that time. Later, Su Li returned to normal, so I didn't care. Now It seems…”
"good!"
Fang Yuan's eyes burned brightly, "Su Li was like an hourglass at that time."
"Hourglass?"
Ling Li's expression changed, and Fang Yuan suddenly sneered: "Yes, just to survive, and to...continue to fulfill your meaningless wishes, she embarked on a road of no return."
"She gambled everything in exchange for short-term strength. Taking control of the Southern Border Kingdom and the Tianji Kingdom over the past few years has created a peaceful environment for you."
"But you got into trouble with an ancient being, causing her to have to kill that being at a loss of eight hundred dollars. After she came back, the old injury recurred, and she had to form a formation to tide over the difficulty. Although she survived this level, it cost her her life It’s come to an end!”
"But with only a little time left, she is still thinking about paving the way for you. After arranging her affairs, she will go to Xiaoshen Palace alone and die together with the ancestor of Xiaoshen..."
"Ling Li, do you know now... how much do you owe Su Li?"
"If it weren't for her, how could it be so easy for you to dominate the martial arts world?"
"If it weren't for her, you would still be at the peak of your innate nature and would not be able to fully control the Hidden Demon Sect!"
"If it weren't for her, you would have been slapped to death by the ancestor of Xiaoshen, and your Ling family would have ceased to exist in the world!"
At this point, Fang Yuan's eyes suddenly turned cold, "But what have you, your Ling family been doing in these years? Although I wish that your Ling family would divorce Su Li and let me guard Su Li's grave. But your mother has been collecting secretly this year. I don’t believe you don’t know those portraits of ladies, but what are you doing? You only see your great cause of revenge. Until Su Li’s death, you never really did anything for Su Li. You are not worthy of Su Li at all. Li!"
boom! !
Anger erupted from around Fang Yuan like a volcano, and his momentum was as strong as
The cold blade collided with Ling Li, and the latter's body-protecting force immediately collapsed without any effort.
"Qiang"!
The long sword was unsheathed and placed across the neck of Ling Li, who was in a daze. Fang Yuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Although everything he said was just speculation, but... from the few words spoken by the old beggar and Qi Xianqing, he had already guessed that it was almost the same. Even if there were some flaws in the details, they were all unsurprisingly important.
"just kill me."
Ling Li suddenly calmed down, and his turbulent state of mind returned like a pool of stagnant water. At this moment, countless memories of getting along with Su Li in his mind were broken one after another, and in the end... they only stayed at the first meeting.
In that bright light, the two met, and the girl burst into tears, while the boy was confused and even wary.
Since then, he has been in debt continuously, until now... he can no longer replace it.
It's better to pay with your life, maybe... you can still see her in the underworld.
"That's enough, stop it."
Suddenly, an old voice came, and then a black shadow flashed, and the short old beggar appeared. His two fingers as old as tree bark clamped the edge of Fang Yuan's sword. There was a "ding" sound, and the sword tip clicked. break.
"Old-timer?"
Fang Yuan's pupils shrank and he immediately stopped his hand. At the same time, a trace of fear arose in his heart. He had just fallen into a rage and lost all sense. If the old beggar hadn't stopped him, he might have... killed him!
Sheathing his sword and standing, Fang Yuan's face showed a hint of apology. Putting aside Su Li's instructions, even if it was for Nian'er, he couldn't let Nian'er lose his parents.
The old beggar looked at Ling Li who was in a daze and didn't care about his arrival at all, and sighed softly: "Wake up, maybe everything... is not without a turn."
Although this sound was dull, it was like a pervasive drizzle that penetrated the nearly blocked sea of consciousness of Lingli, causing him to wake up suddenly, and the light in his eyes quickly condensed.
"Transfer?"
He subconsciously spoke out, but found that his voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant, like frost.
This is the result of extreme grief and state of mind. Even if he has a high level of cultivation, he cannot avoid it.
"Are you... a fortune teller?"
At this time, Ling Li recognized the old beggar. He was clearly the man who had made a strange fortune for him a few years ago.
The old beggar chuckled and looked at the two of them. They were both unique geniuses with powerful shadows behind them. Otherwise, they would never be placed next to the two mirror masters, or even have all kinds of entanglements with them.
However, I am afraid that those powerful men with all-powerful means have never thought that these two people not only failed to plant the seeds in Su Li's heart, but judging from their current appearance, they have clearly become Su Li's cauldron, allowing him to take whatever he wants.
Of course, all this is based on the fact that Su Li is still alive...
"What is the turning point that senior said?"
Fang Yuan frowned, and there was a hint of urgency in his words, "Is it possible... Li'er didn't...?"
"Of course I don't know Miss Su's life or death, but at the last moment of the destruction of Xiaoshen Palace, I sensed the aura of the Mirror Spirit. Maybe..."
Having said this, the old beggar stroked his beard and said nothing.
Ling Li and Fang Yuan's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Senior, when you come here, you must have a gap in your heart. If there is anything we and I can do to help, please let us know. As long as we can save Li'er's name, we will... die without mercy!"
Ling Li spoke loudly, his eyes showing determination.
It's time to pay off your debt.
