Chapter 404: The Old Friend Withered

Inside the Li Mansion.

Outside the bedroom of Father Li and Mother Li, the younger sister and younger brother of the Li family accompanied Dongdong and waited.

The younger sister of the Li family has low qualifications, but that doesn't stop her from being a real Jin Dan now, and Yuanying is expected to still be in her prime.

And Li Xiaodi was an absurd playboy when he was young, he was emotionally hurt in middle age, and he had no intention of practicing.

Therefore, his realm is not high. He can survive until now only because of the elixir that prolongs his life. Now he is very old.

More than a hundred years ago, he and his father, Li, and his mother separated, and rarely interacted with each other. But now that the second eldest son is approaching, he still comes back.

Looking at the old man in the bedroom, his eyes showed sadness.

How could he not know how much his father Li and his mother had taken care of him over the years? How could the Li family have developed into its current size if not for the two elders' names?

Let him, a near-waste person, become the ancestor of the great Li family.

It's just that the past is like a sharp thorn stabbing into his heart, making him unable to let it go.

"Taoist Master, will he come?"

The younger sister of the Li family asked Dongdong softly.

Time has finally left its mark on her body. She was once a beautiful girl from a small family, but now she is beautiful and charming, and she still has the grace and nobility of having been in a high position for a long time. She no longer has the slightest restraint of the girl next door.

But in front of Dongdong, she still lacked a bit of temperament.

Dongdong shook his head and said: "I have informed him, but he has been in seclusion for decades at a time, and I don't know if he can receive my message.

But don’t worry, if he receives it, he will definitely come to see Uncle Li and Aunt Li on their last journey.”

In the bedroom.

Fang Chang, who was being discussed by the two women, stood quietly in front of the two old men.

"Uncle Li, Aunt Zhang."

"Lord Taoist Lord."

The two old men, who were rumored to be dead soon, were sitting side by side on the couch, looking healthy and in good spirits.

But Fang Chang saw the strong death aura on both of them.

If it weren't for the fact that the two of them had a Taoist Immortality Pill in their stomachs to extend their lives, they would have gone to the west by now.

However, even with the elixir, the two of them were mortal bodies after all, and when they reached the end of their souls, neither medicine nor stone could cure them.

At this time, I was holding on to my breath, but I still had some unfulfilled wishes.

"Let's call me Xiao Fang." Fang Chang paused and said, "My eldest brother is not here, so I should fulfill my filial piety to my two elders on his behalf."

Uncle Li's face glowed with an abnormal red light and he laughed.

"This kid, Xiaohu, is truly blessed to have met the Tao Master."

He still didn't cry out "Xiao Fang".

People will eventually change.

In his eyes, Fang Chang was no longer the son of his benefactor, Xiao Fang, the boss of Mingdian, and his son's sworn brother.

He is just a Taoist master who gives orders and controls the lives and deaths of billions of people.

And this old guy like him is just a lucky old man who has enjoyed two hundred years of glory by relying on a little blessing in the past.

Fang Chang did not correct him again.

His mystery is not only for those outside Qingxiao Dao City, but even within Qingxiao Dao City, fewer and fewer people can see him.

Old friends from the past, apart from close people like Tie Zhu and Dongdong, as well as heartless children like Pao Pao, others are only more and more in awe of his senses.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Fang Chang asked.

Uncle Li glanced at Aunt Zhang, nodded and said, "The old lady and I are waiting for the Tao Master and want to ask you something."

"My eldest brother?"

"Yes, Xiaohu has been gone for so long. We want to see him. Master Taoist, can you contact him?"

"We have been waiting for this child for two hundred years."

Aunt Zhang answered with tears in her eyes.

At the last moment of life, as an old man, he naturally hopes that his children will be safe before his bed so that he can close his eyes safely.

There is also some hope in Uncle Li's eyes.

No matter what, Li Hu is their eldest son, the person who once placed all their hopes.

Although Li Xiaodi was born later, Li Hu's position was different after all.

Fang Chang shook his head and said, "Sorry, I can't contact him. But I got news from somewhere. He should be doing fine now."

It is difficult to achieve the Dongxu realm, but he and Tie Zhu were able to break through it. A large part of the reason was due to the compatibility between the puppet ancestral realm and the two of them.

This is more precious than any treasure.

And a talented and talented cultivator at the pinnacle of spiritual transformation like the Great Sun God is only one step away from the realm of Dongxu, but he has been stuck for thousands of years and still needs to work hard.

If he hadn't taken the Qing Wang Immortality Pill, the Great Sun God would have passed away by now.

The only good news is that I met Mrs. Meishan, a former saint of the Beidou Dao Sect, and understood that Li Hu's life was not in danger.

The Daozi battlefield where Li Hu went is said to be the Beidou Secret Treasures, and practicing in it for one year is worth more than a hundred years of practice.

Two hundred years have passed, even if it is cut in half, it will still be ten thousand years of work.

But Li Hu still hasn't come back, so there's no guarantee that something happened to him.

It's just that he doesn't have to say these words to Father Li and Mother Li. It's useless and makes them worry in vain.

"That's it."

Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang looked at each other and sighed.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Master Dao."

The air was quiet for a while.

Seeing this, Fang Chang took the initiative to mention: "You still have some time left, but if you still have any unfulfilled wishes, I can help you fulfill them."

Uncle Li shook his head and said: "No, Miss Dongdong has taken good care of our Li family, and we are already satisfied."

But Aunt Zhang hesitated, glanced at Fang Chang, and said slowly:

"Master Taoist, my little girl is still unmarried. Can you accept her into your room, even if she is just a slave serving tea and water?"

For the little sister of the Li family, the two of them had secretly made arrangements to find a good son-in-law for her.

And the monks who want to join the Li family are like carps crossing the river, there are countless, many of them are extremely outstanding young people, and they are dazzled by all kinds of young talents.

But when those people heard that the little sister of the Li family seemed to have had an unclear past with the Taoist Master, they were all frightened.

Even though Mother Li tried her best to explain, her daughter and Master Taoist are just brother and sister.

But if they are not afraid of ten thousand, they are afraid of the worst. They have never even met the Li family's little sister, so how can they have any feelings for her.

In the end, I finally picked someone who was not afraid of death, but the younger sister of the Li family was dissatisfied again.

After more than two hundred years of struggle, the younger sister of the Li family was still single, and finally both elders accepted their fate.

But now that Mother Li felt that her life was not long, she wanted to make one last impulse, even if it offended the Taoist Master, she wanted to find happiness for her daughter.

Fang Chang's expression remained unchanged and he flatly refused:

"I am not a beloved man, and I don't want to delay Axiu. Moreover, Axiu has worked hard in cultivation and is now a Jindan master. He still has a good time, so he is not in a hurry to get married."

There are many women who have had in-depth exchanges with him, but there are only two women who have truly interacted with him and are likely to develop in the next step.

Axiu got acquainted with Li Hu and got acquainted with him because he delivered meals in Zizhulin. With a girlish feeling, she took care of herself and paid her sincerity.

But Fang Chang was not tempted by him and was unwilling to force himself.

There is also Xiaolan, who made an ignorant promise when she was young, but missed it due to a slight difference in thought. Originally, the two never met again, and they forgot each other in the world.

However, Qianzhu County was flooded due to changes in the weather, and was later taken to Qingxiao City by Zhu Gui.

However, Xiaolan did not practice spiritual practice and did not want to take the life-extending elixir.

After she came to Qingxiao City, she adopted several orphans and inherited the name and surname of Xu's Luxiang Medicine Shop.

She passed away more than a hundred years ago, and she didn't even notify anyone when she passed away.

Even her adopted sons and daughters didn't know their adoptive mother's background. They only knew that their Xu Family Pharmacy was lucky enough to have a Daocheng household registration when Daocheng was first built.

Nowadays, the Xu family can be regarded as a small cultivation family.

Thinking of the girl who timidly called him Fang Chang's brother when they first met, Fang Chang's eyes became more indifferent.

"It's Axiu who doesn't have this blessing."

Aunt Zhang was a little disappointed, but she didn't dare to dwell on it.

When Li's father saw this, he laughed and said with a smile to Fang Chang:

"It is a blessing for us two old men to be able to see the Taoist Master before he dies. While we still have some strength, I would like to ask the Taoist Master to let my little son in."

As he spoke, a somewhat bitter smile appeared on his face.

"If I call him, he probably won't come in. Now only the Tao Master can have this face."

Fang Chang knew about the incestuous affair between father and son, and he witnessed it with his own eyes. Although he was plotted against, it also caused a gap between father and son, and they could not let go.

So he nodded slightly and walked out of the door, startling the people waiting outside.

"I've met the Taoist Master."

The younger brother and younger sister of the Li family both saluted quickly.

"You're here."

Dongdong smiled slightly towards Fangchang.

"Li Anle, go meet your father."

Fang Chang looked at the younger brother of the Li family, his tone was neither cold nor indifferent, but it also made him feel worried, not knowing whether he was happy or angry.

"yes."

Facing Fang Chang, Li Anle didn't dare to say another word, so he walked into the house with a cane and an old step.

After a while, suppressed roars, curses, and sobs came from the house...

Fang Chang looked at the little girl from the Li family whose expression had been changing ever since he appeared. He remembered what Aunt Zhang had just said and said:

"Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang both hope you start a family soon.

You are not young anymore, go find someone you like, no matter what the other person’s background or identity is, remember that you have the entire Qingxiao Daocheng behind you.”

Li Xiuxiu looked at Fang Chang and saw that his expression did not change at all, as if it was just a routine matter.

She struggled for a moment and asked:

"What if the person I like has a high status and has a family?"

Fang Chang saw through her thoughts, shook his head and said:

"No matter how high his status is or whether he has a family, I can support you, but only if that person also likes you."

Li Xiuxiu smiled bitterly: "Do you really want me to get married as soon as possible?"

Fang Chang stared into her eyes and said, "You like me, but do you remember whether you like me in the past or me now?

We haven't seen each other for decades, and we have no name or distinction. You really still like me, or maybe you like me because of the obsession in your heart.

I don’t care if you want to get married immediately, I just hope you can get rid of the obsession in your heart and don’t have a dream that will never come true.”

Li Xiuxiu said: "You are so cruel, you shattered all my illusions before I said anything.

But there is something you said wrong, I know very well who I like.

Maybe in another hundred or five hundred years, I will gradually forget about him, but it will never be now."

Without waiting for Fang Chang to speak, Li Xiuxiu turned around and rushed into the room, almost venting:

"Li Anle, for the sake of a woman with ulterior motives, do you want your father to die in peace?!"

"Kneel down and admit your mistake to dad. You know how much he has missed you and worried about you these years!"

"If you have the guts, don't enjoy the benefits dad gives you!"

"But you didn't. You were enjoying it and complaining at the same time. Doesn't the whole world owe you for what's yours?"

"Since you are enjoying the shadow given to you by dad, don't maintain your ridiculous self-esteem. Your current dignity is all given to you by dad.

Without dad here, all your filial sons and grandsons will step on you, one by one.

Do you think your prestige is great?

What do you want in return for all that dad has done for you?!"

Peng!

Inside the house, the younger brother of the Li family was forcibly pushed to the ground. The poor old man who was over a hundred years old still had to enjoy the iron fist of justice from his own sister.

Hearing this, Fang Chang couldn't help but smile knowingly and took Dongdong's hand.

"Let's go, I'll go shopping with you."

Dongdong rolled his eyes angrily and said, "I'll accompany you for a walk. I'm the maid, and I'll let you come and go at a moment's notice.

I was also smitten by you back then, and you took advantage of me in vain."

"What, you still want to regret it?" Fang Chang laughed, "Now that the whole world knows that you are the wife of the Taoist Master of Qingxiao Dao, it's too late to regret it."

Just as Dongdong was about to speak, a sharp female voice came from outside the courtyard.

"I want to see my in-laws, who of you dare to stop me?"

Bang bang!!

When the spiritual light flashed, several servants of the Li family did not dare to stop him, and they were all beaten away.

Then a beautiful woman and a young woman who looked like a small white flower came in menacingly.

"People from the Li family, should we treat us as if we don't exist if we don't talk? My daughter is still the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li family.

If Li Hu is not here, are you going to bully..."

The voice stopped suddenly, and the beautiful woman looked at Fang Chang with a faint smile on his face and Dongdong who looked like he was watching a good show, and smiled.

"Master Taoist, Miss Dongdong, you are here too."

Fang Chang said with a smile: "Mrs. Qin, long time no see."

The visitors were none other than the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of his good brother Li Hu, Mrs. Qin and Qin Qing.

Mrs. Qin had previously injured her foundation in order to give birth to her precious son, but the injuries could not be cured at the time, but now in the Daocheng era, it is not a big deal.

Mrs. Qin, who had made up for her foundation, came from behind and used the resources given to her by her good son-in-law to practice hard. Now she is also a Jindan master, and her cultivation level is even higher than that of Li Xiuxiu, and she is only one step away from the Nascent Soul realm.

Qin Qing, however, does not have as much motivation and perseverance as her mother. Relying on the favorable environment and resources of Qingxiao Daocheng, she has only just broken through to the golden elixir realm.

She still looks weak and weak. She has been very low-key for more than two hundred years, which is not as good as her mother's reputation.

"Ahem, Master Taoist, please give me some advice. My whole family is like this, but no one informed me and Qing'er. Isn't Qing'er not from the Li family?"

Mrs. Qin was embarrassed at first, and then became angry, as if letting Fang Chang make the decision.

Ever since the Li family's younger brother's incident happened more than a hundred years ago, in order to avoid suspicion and for the sake of her daughter's reputation, Mrs. Qin and Qin Qing moved out of the Li Mansion.

However, without Li Hu as a hub, Mrs. Qin, mother and daughter had very little communication with the Li Mansion, so that when Li's father and Li's mother were about to die, no one thought to inform her.

Mrs. Qin was very angry when she heard the news.

Her daughter also has a share in the huge Li Mansion, or even all of it belongs to her daughter.

After all, the Li family's current family fortune was built by her good son-in-law. The city lord's palace favored the Li family not because of her son-in-law's face.

In the past, she could ignore it, but now that the family business was about to fall into the hands of outsiders, she naturally wanted to seek an explanation for her daughter.
