"Boy, when you were young, did you have nothing to do and go to your house to pick people up every day?"

In the streets of Yuzhou City, Mao Nanfeng asked while strolling.

The emergence of so many geniuses shows how amazing the number of children adopted by the Li family is.

This kid, can you pick it up?

"Almost."

Li Ziye responded casually, "At that time, the Li family was in its infancy, and the opponents were not very high-level. I was relatively free, so I went to pick up people from home to play with every day. I personally brought back as many as eighty people to the Li family, if not a hundred.

"

"How many have been trained?" Mao Nanfeng asked curiously.

"Three." Li Ziye responded.

"Good luck." Mao Nanfeng praised.

"I think so too."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "The success rate is indeed very high. Over the years, Sister Hongzhu and Taotao have made great contributions to the development of the Li family. The most important thing is that they are brothers and sisters who grew up together and have witnessed together.

The rise of the Li family, their sense of belonging and loyalty cannot be compared to those who entered the Li family halfway."

Mao Nanfeng had a look of emotion on his face after hearing what the boy next to him said.

So awesome.

The growth of Hongzhu and Taotao and the Li family are almost synchronized. It would be impossible for any other family to bet their future on some children.

If the Li family dares to do this, there is no doubt that all the confidence lies in this boy.

"Weren't you afraid at the time that these children wouldn't be able to support the Li family's future?" Mao Nanfeng asked seriously.

"Afraid."

Li Ziye nodded and responded, "So, the Li family trained many, many people in the beginning, but unfortunately, most of them were eliminated halfway."

Having said this, Li Ziye showed a look of regret on his face and continued, "One of them, I remember very deeply, is a boy two years older than me. He is very smart and has strong martial arts talent. At that time,

, I originally planned to give him the role of second brother, but..."

At this point, Li Ziye sighed softly and did not want to say any more.

"Just what?"

Mao Nanfeng frowned and asked, "Don't make people appetizing."

"Dead."

Li Ziye sighed softly, "A mission that was not too difficult, but there was an accident midway. He was seriously injured and died in the end."

"Geniuses who fail to grow can only be forgotten by history."

Mao Nanfeng looked calm and said, "My condolences."

"I'm used to it."

Li Ziye forced a smile and replied, "Three years ago, I also almost died in Mobei. Unknown dangers are always difficult to guard against."

Maonanfeng was silent and said nothing more.

The rise of any force is always accompanied by countless sacrifices, and the Li family is no exception.

Only they themselves know how many hardships the Li family and the Li family have gone through to get to where they are today.

Moreover, the fact that Hongzhu and the others were able to survive, to a certain extent, does not mean that their own strength is any better than those of the Li family who sacrificed their lives, but that they are just luckier.

After countless sacrifices and eliminations, they became the lucky ones to survive.

"In the early days of the rise of the Li family, didn't those in the Taoist sect come to help?"

After a long silence, Mao Nanfeng spoke up and asked, at that stage, if the Taoist people were willing to take action, the talents of the Li family should be able to survive a lot longer.

"Trust is built slowly on the basis of equality."

Li Ziye looked calm and said, "There is no such thing as trust without reason in this world. If the Li family does not have the corresponding height and respect, Uncle Xi and the others will have no reason to take action."

The rise of the Li family is not due to the help of the Taoist sect, but the Taoist sect will take action when the Li family rises.

Should we expect the eagle to protect the ugly duckling all the way?

Not realistic.

At least, the ugly duckling has to become a white swan or an eagle before it can be possible to walk with it all the way.

"It's really cruel."

Mao Nanfeng sighed, "But it's also very real."

"The growth of a family will never be a fairy tale."

Li Ziye said calmly, "Just like Senior Nan Wang, if the Li family cannot provide enough resources to meet the needs of senior, what reason does senior have to stay in the Li family."

"Oh."

When Mao Nanfeng heard this, he smiled lightly, but did not deny it.

"Third Young Master."

As the two of them were strolling along the street, a tall and strong young man came up at the end of the street carrying two jars of wine. When he saw the two of them, he called out happily.

Li Ziye heard someone calling him and looked over subconsciously. When he saw the owner of the voice, he was stunned for a moment.

Wen Ruyu?

Lie down!

Why does this grandson look more and more like a gorilla? How ugly!

At the end of the street, Wen Ruyu took two steps quickly, with a look of excitement on her face.

In fact, in terms of appearance, Wen Ruyu is not ugly, but her figure is too tall and strong, which makes her look a bit scary.

"Third Young Master, when did you come back?" Wen Ruyu stepped forward quickly and asked excitedly.

"yesterday."

Li Ziye looked at the big man in front of him and asked in confusion, "My return should be big news in Yuzhou City, don't you know?"

"I got drunk after a drinking contest with Master yesterday, and I slept until this morning."

Wen Ruyu scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "What are you going to do, Third Young Master?"

“Let’s take a walk around the city with the senior next to me.”

Li Ziye responded and asked curiously, "Ruyu, I heard that you were the one who made the seal of my family. Is that okay? You're going to start training soon, right?"

"not yet."

Wen Ruyu grinned and replied, "I have been learning to cast tools from my master recently. Once I learn how to do it, I will start my apprenticeship."

"Cast?"

Li Ziye was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, "It's just a few hoes. Do you need to say it so fresh and refined?"

"Not a hoe."

Wen Ruyu shook her head and said seriously, "It's a weapon."

Li Ziye's expression suddenly froze when he heard the answer from the big man in front of him.

After a brief period of confusion, Li Ziye quickly gathered his thoughts and asked, "Can you forge swords?"

"Studying." Wen Ruyu responded.

"Later, I will send someone to give you a sword. You can study it."

Li Ziye thought for a while and said, "Help see if there is any possibility of saving it."

"good."

Wen Ruyu nodded in response, then hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go to Li's house to get it. Anyway, I have nothing to do now."

"Alright."

Li Ziye nodded and said, "Just ask Lao Li to bring it to you."

"good."

Wen Ruyu responded, "Then I'll go first. Third Young Master, you and this senior can continue shopping."

After saying that, Wen Ruyu didn't say anything more and walked towards the Li Mansion.

"This young man is very extraordinary."

Beside Li Ziye, Mao Nanfeng looked at Wen Ruyu's retreating back and reminded him.

"Innate divine power is certainly not simple."

Li Ziye responded with a smile, "His master is not simple, but he is better at hiding. He has guarded a blacksmith shop for so many years and refuses to show any of his skills."

After hearing what the boy next to him said, Mao Nanfeng frowned slightly and asked, "Master?"
