It was not until dawn that Zhou Tianlong finally felt tired from all the hard work and fell into a deep sleep.
He slept until midnight. Zhou Tianlong rubbed his head and slowly sat up from the bed. He felt extremely tired all over and his mind was still thinking about what happened last night.
"Dong dong dong"! There was a knock on the door from outside. It turned out that Li Tongming sent someone to invite Zhou Tianlong to come over to discuss matters. Zhou Tianlong came to the Li family meeting hall and saw that the main senior officials of the Li family were there.
Tongming sat in the middle, and Li Tianer sat next to him.
After Zhou Tianlong greeted everyone, Li Tongming pointed to an empty seat next to Li Tian'er and said to Zhou Tianlong: "Xiannephew Tianlong, sit down!"
Zhou Tianlong walked over and sat on the empty seat. Just as he was about to talk to Li Tian'er, he saw Li Tian'er suddenly stand up, leave her original seat, and sit on the other side of his father.
"Uh..." Zhou Tianlong couldn't help feeling embarrassed when he saw Li Tian'er hanging himself there.
"It seems that Tian'er is still angry with me because of what happened last night!" Zhou Tianlong secretly complained in his heart.
Everyone in the hall saw this scene and couldn't help but be surprised and whispered. Li Tongming also stared at his daughter with doubtful eyes, while Li Tian'er seemed not to notice everyone's gaze and ignored others except herself.
He lowered his head and sat in his seat without saying a word.
Zhou Tianlong shook his head helplessly and stopped changing seats, sitting there with his head lowered.
Li Tongming felt funny when he saw the two of them acting like this. It was extremely normal for boys and girls to quarrel, and he wouldn't take it too seriously.
Now that business was important, Li Tongming no longer thought about Zhou Tianlong and Li Tian'er's affairs, and immediately said loudly to the people below: "Everyone, I have called everyone here today to discuss the matter of dealing with the Tong family!"
When everyone heard the mention of the Tong family, they immediately stopped whispering about the behavior of Li Tian'er and Zhou Tianlong, and looked at Li Tongming solemnly.
Li Tongming knew that the Tong family was worried about the martial arts competition and would definitely cause trouble for the Li family. Since the Li family was not as powerful as the Tong family, it would be the Li family that would suffer if they fought. That's why the Li family was
Everyone gathered here, first to discuss the current situation with everyone, and secondly to arrange their own defense work for the family members.
Just listen to Li Tongming say: "Yesterday's martial arts competition, thanks to the help of Tianlong's nephew, we were able to defeat the Tong family. But according to my expectation, the Tong family will never give up, I am afraid that they will find ways to retaliate against our Li family...
…”
Zhou Tianlong listened to Li Tongming's speech above. He wanted to listen carefully, but he always felt distracted and couldn't listen to Li Tongming's words. He just stared at Li Tian'er.
Li Tian'er was lowering her head at this time, staring at the ground. Looking at her appearance, she also looked absent-minded, not listening to what her father said at all.
After everything was arranged, Li Tongming asked Zhou Tianlong: "My nephew Tianlong, do you think there is anything inappropriate about this arrangement?"
After the last battle between Zhou Tianlong and Tong Liang, Li Tongming had already regarded Zhou Tianlong as the core figure of their Li family, so after making the decision, he had to ask Zhou Tianlong what he meant.
"Nephew Tianlong!" Li Tongming couldn't help but ask again when he saw that Zhou Tianlong didn't answer him, but just stared at Li Tian'er.
"Ah!" Zhou Tianlong finally came back to his senses and looked at Li Tongming.
Li Tongming shook his head slightly. When he saw Zhou Tianlong staring at Li Tian'er without blinking, he knew that Zhou Tianlong had not listened to what he said at all.
"Nephew Tianlong, are my arrangements just now appropriate?" Li Tongming asked again.
Zhou Tianlong was stunned. He didn't listen to what Li Tongming said just now. How could he know whether his arrangements were appropriate? Therefore, he could only scratch his head and said stupidly: "Appropriate! Appropriate!"
Seeing Zhou Tianlong like this, Li Tongming couldn't help but sigh, and glanced at Li Tian'er. Li Tian'er was staring at the ground, obviously not listening to him.
Li Tongming couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that the two of them looked distracted. However, he also knew that this was a matter between the two of them. No matter what conflicts there were, they should resolve them themselves. He was not suitable.
Ask more.
Moving his gaze from Li Tian'er to Zhou Tianlong, Li Tongming said again: "Xianlong Tianlong, if we fight with the Tong family this time, my Li family will be at a disadvantage. I hope you can stay and help us!
"
After all, if Zhou Tianlong is here, then at least the younger generation of the Li family will have an advantage in the battle.
Zhou Tianlong nodded solemnly and said to Li Tongming: "Uncle Li, please rest assured, I will live and die with the Li family!"
Hearing these words, Li Tongming nodded happily, and Li Tianer suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Tianlong, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Zhou Tianlong felt Li Tian'er's eyes looking at him and hurriedly looked up at him, but Li Tian'er immediately looked away and looked at the ground again. Zhou Tianlong could only shake his head with a wry smile, and then looked at Li Tongming,
And Li Tongming also made a helpless expression towards him.
After the matter was discussed, Li Tongming ordered everyone to leave. Li Tian'er did not hesitate and was the first to stand up and leave the meeting hall without even saying hello to the elders around him.
Zhou Tianlong looked at Li Tian'er's leaving back, then turned to look at Li Tongming. When he saw Li Tongming winking at him, he no longer hesitated and hurriedly chased in the direction where Li Tian'er left.
Everyone in the Li family burst out laughing as they looked at the two people going out one after another.
Li Tongming also smiled bitterly and looked helplessly at the backs of the two people.
Li Tian'er walked quickly on the road leading to her boudoir. She felt someone behind her and knew it was Zhou Tianlong chasing her, so she did not stop and just walked forward on her own.
"Tian'er, wait for me!" Zhou Tianlong shouted from behind.
However, Li Tian'er acted as if she didn't hear him and continued walking forward without stopping at all.
Seeing this, Zhou Tianlong hurriedly caught up and blocked Li Tianer's path.
Li Tian'er raised her head and glanced at him without any expression on her face. Then she turned her face to one side and ignored him.
Zhou Tianlong scratched his head and said softly: "Tian'er, I'm really sorry for what happened last night! At that time, the skin all over your body turned fiery red, and flames kept flying towards your body. I
I was really worried about your safety, that’s why I didn’t leave the room, I didn’t mean to peek at you!”
Having said this, Zhou Tianlong also cursed himself secretly. He did not leave the room. Part of the reason was indeed that he was worried about Tian'er's safety, but part of the reason was definitely because he was really reluctant to leave the room.
Li Tian'er didn't speak. She didn't even look at Zhou Tianlong with her big eyes, and kept looking around.
Zhou Tianlong became even more anxious when he saw Li Tian'er not speaking, and continued: "Tian'er, it's all Brother Tianlong's fault. Brother Tianlong is here to apologize to you. Don't be angry!"
However, no matter what Zhou Tianlong said, Li Tian'er neither spoke nor looked at him, as if there was no such person in front of him at all, which only made Zhou Tianlong scratch his head and scratch his head.
"Hahahaha!" Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from the tree, which immediately startled Zhou Tianlong and Li Tian'er. Li Tian'er hurriedly grabbed Zhou Tianlong's arm subconsciously.
Zhou Tianlong was secretly happy when he saw Li Tian'er grabbing his arm. He knew that Li Tian'er was not really angry with him, and was just pretending to be angry with him.
Zhou Tianlong stretched out his hand and patted Li Tian'er's little hand. Only then did Li Tian'er realize that she was holding Zhou Tianlong's arm. She suddenly snorted coldly and let go of her hand.
Zhou Tianlong was secretly amused. Although Li Tian'er still looked very angry with him, his subconscious behavior just now betrayed her.
At that moment, Zhou Tianlong no longer thought about Li Tian'er and shouted loudly at the tree: "Who?"
"Hahaha!" The laughter started again, and the man said: "Kid, you have to apologize to this little girl, but you have to show some sincerity!"
Zhou Tianlong frowned and asked loudly: "Who are you? Why are you hiding in my house?"
"Hahaha!" Laughter came from the tree again, and Zhou Tianlong felt a red shadow flash in front of him, and a person appeared in front of them.
Zhou Tianlong discovered that the man was an old man, probably fifty or sixty years old, and he was wearing a fiery red robe, with three pills embroidered on the right chest of the robe.
"Is he from the Medicine Temple?" Zhou Tianlong was suddenly startled and subconsciously touched his space storage bracelet.
The old man looked at Li Tian'er with an expression of great surprise, and nodded heavily: "It seems that Renhuo is right, this little girl is indeed extraordinary!"
Seeing the old man's eyes staring at her motionlessly, Li Tian'er couldn't help but feel a little frightened. She hurriedly grabbed Zhou Tianlong's arm and hid behind Zhou Tianlong.
The old man couldn't help laughing when he saw Li Tian'er's timid appearance.
Zhou Tianlong was also speechless and thought to himself: "Tian'er is now at the peak of the ninth level of the mortal martial realm. He is one level higher than me. At this moment, he is still hiding behind me. Let me...
Body refining realm warriors come to protect her!"
However, he had sworn to protect Tian'er back then, so even though his strength is now far inferior to Tian'er's, the oath he made that day would not change. Since Tian'er is afraid, he should step forward.
Thinking of this, Zhou Tianlong hugged the old man and said, "The old man must be a senior of the Medicine Temple. Why do you come to my Li's house?"
After hearing Zhou Tianlong's words, the old man turned his eyes and looked at Zhou Tianlong: "Boy, since you know that I am from the Medicine Temple, then you took the God King Cauldron from the Medicine Temple. Now that you see me, why don't you hand it over as soon as possible?
