In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since the Southern Fire Region's Grand Competition. However, the battle between Yang Li and Huo Qing was still the topic that everyone was talking about. In fact, people would always talk about it during their leisure time.
There were even some busybodies who dug up Yang Li's experiences in Sky Mist Sect over the past few years, and it caused his fame to rise to another level.
Although the first place of the Spirit Controlling Realm and Spirit Harmonizing Realm Grand Competition was also won by the Southern Fire Region, the attention they received was still not as high as Yang Li's.
This was because Yang Li had indirectly defeated his opponent who was seven levels above him!
Seven levels was something that no one had ever achieved since the ancient times. Even the most famous cultivator in the Southern Fire Region could only fight someone who was four levels above him.
However, the ancient times were a thing of the past. Strictly speaking, Yang Li was truly unprecedented!
However, Yang Li was feeling a little uncomfortable at this time.
During the Grand Competition, whether it was against Li Ling, Huo Lie, Que Hong, or Huo Qing, he had used the Blood Explosion Technique. In just a short period of a month, he had used it four times. This was really too much for his body.
"Sigh, I really can't use this Blood Explosion Technique anymore in the future!" Yang Li smiled bitterly. Even though half a month had passed, his body would occasionally tremble, which was a sign that his body was weak.
"Yang Li, is your body still not recovered?" Su Wanqing looked at Yang Li worriedly and asked softly.
"It will be completely healed in a few days. It's no longer a big problem. How about you? Have there been any changes recently?" Yang Li smiled carelessly and then asked.
"I've been feeling very good recently. I feel like I'm making significant progress every day. At this rate, I'm afraid I will be able to break through to the Spirit Harmonizing Realm this year!" Su Wanqing said excitedly.
Just as Xue Qinghan had predicted, Su Wanqing had fainted four times in a month after the first time. After fainting for the first time, she couldn't remember what happened on that day.
However, at the same time, her cultivation talent had improved by leaps and bounds. A month ago, she had relied on medicinal pills to advance to the Spirit Controlling Realm Level 5, but in just a month, she had advanced to the Spirit Controlling Realm Level 6.
Moreover, her battle prowess was also extremely valiant. Originally, she could only fight three levels above her, but now, her battle prowess was already close to Yang Li's. It could be said to be quite terrifying, and this caused Yang Li's originally relaxed mood to once again become tense.
If he was surpassed by Su Wanqing by too much, and Su Wanqing was taken away by the Su family in the future, it would be very difficult for him to be together with Su Wanqing again. Therefore, during this period of time, he had been desperately cultivating. He had also entered the beast skin once, and it was not bad. He was about to break through to the Spirit Controlling Realm Level 6.
Hearing Su Wanqing's words, Yang Li also smiled and said, "Then you have to work hard, don't let me surpass you again."
Hearing this, Su Wanqing cutely frowned and said, "If you surpass me, then so be it. You're a monster, who can compare with you! Besides, your combat strength is not ordinary, but it doesn't matter, hehe, as long as I don't drag you down in the future, it's fine. "
Yang Li laughed involuntarily and rubbed Su Wanqing's head, his face full of doting and love.
"En, Wan Qing, let's go see your family. There are some things I want to ask." Yang Li pondered for a moment and said.
He had to find out about Su Wanqing's background. Although he was 90% sure that Su Wanqing was a member of the Su family, he still needed to confirm it.
"Ah? So soon? " Hearing Yang Li's words, Su Wanqing's cheeks blushed like a ripe apple, making people want to take a bite.
"En? Why? Don't you want to? "Yang Li did not tell the truth to Su Wanqing and said with a smile.
"No, no! Absolutely not! Then … then when do we leave? "Su Wanqing hurriedly explained. After thinking for a moment, she agreed.
"There's no time like the present. Let's do it today. After all, I'll be going to the Birdy Forest Region soon. When that time comes, you'll have to stay in the sect to cultivate. There won't be much time."
Su Wanqing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Then let's go."
With that, the two walked out of the sect and flew towards the small city where Su Wanqing's family was.
However, the two of them did not travel very quickly. First, the Su family would arrive in a few days. Second, the two of them had very little time alone. Yang Li also wanted to spend more time with Su Wanqing.
On the way, the two of them saw a lot of scenery. Because Su Wanqing stayed in the sect most of the time, she had not seen some of the interesting tricks in the secular world. She often stayed in front of the acrobatic stalls in high spirits.
Five days later, the two of them arrived at the small city where the family was located.
Perhaps it was because she was afraid to return home, but Su Wanqing stood at the city gate and hesitated for a long time. In the end, she walked in under Yang Li's persuasion.
"This is my home." Su Wan Qing pointed at a mansion in front of her and said. There was a signboard hanging above the mansion and the two words "Su Clan" were engraved on it. Although it didn't contain any spiritual power, the strong and elegant handwriting made Yang Li exclaim in admiration.
However, the two of them found it strange that there was not a single guard in front of the mansion. Generally speaking, any family with a bit of power would have their own guards. Furthermore, according to Su Wanqing, the Su family's status in this small city was not bad. This kind of situation should not have occurred.
The two of them frowned slightly. Then, they spread out their divine sense to observe the situation in the courtyard. What they saw made them both shocked.
At this time, the courtyard was overgrown with weeds. Some of the weeds had even grown to the height of a person. The door frames on both sides were also covered with dust. Only a pavilion in the courtyard was clean and new. The other places actually looked as if no one had taken care of them for many years.
After looking at all the decorations in the house, Yang Li found that only two of the houses had decorations that could be considered good. There were even many rooms that were empty.
The two well-decorated houses also had no one in them.
"What's going on? This is impossible! " Su Wanqing also observed the scene in the courtyard. Her eyes were red and she directly flew into the sky. She completely lost her mind.
In her understanding, her parents should be living very well. Moreover, they were living quite well in the sect. Her parents would occasionally send her messages to reassure her, but she had never come back to see them.
If it wasn't for Yang Li saying that he wanted to go home with her this time, she was afraid that she would still be in the dark. This was because her parents had just sent her a letter a month ago.
Yang Li was extremely calm. After entering the courtyard with Su Wanqing, he carefully observed the two clean and well-furnished rooms. He also felt that one of the rooms had traces of people living in it.
Only then did he calm down and began to comfort Su Wanqing.
Yang Li's comfort was very useful. Not long after, Su Wanqing's mood was obviously much better.
After the two of them discussed for a while, they used their spiritual power to clean the entire mansion. Fortunately, they were cultivators. Otherwise, who knew how long it would take to completely clean up.
Even the pond in the courtyard was washed by the two of them with spiritual power. The originally somewhat muddy water also became clear again.
In the evening, the two of them finally finished their work. Only then did they stop to restore their spiritual power.
"Creak ~" The sound of a door opening was heard. Then came two voices.
"I told you not to be calculative with Foreman Li. Look, you've lost your salary for today because of your quarrel. Sigh, what should I say to you?" The woman scolded the middle-aged man beside her as she walked toward the courtyard.
The man lowered his head gloomily and did not speak. After scolding for a while, the woman did not speak. When her gaze turned from the man to the courtyard, she was completely shocked. She patted the man beside her and said, "Old Su, Old Su, quickly look up. What is going on?"
When Su Shi heard the woman's words, he raised his head. When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he could not help but rub his eyes in disbelief.
At this moment, Su Wanqing and Yang Li, who heard the voices of the two of them, woke up from their cultivation.
Su Wanqing could no longer suppress her excitement. She suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of the two of them. Her eyes were filled with tears as she stared blankly at the two of them. Yang Li, who rushed over, also carefully looked at the two of them.
The middle-aged man's appearance was quite extraordinary. His eyebrows were faintly mixed with a trace of white. His eyes gave off a sense of vicissitudes. His straight nose and slightly dry lips gave off the feeling that he had weathered many hardships.
Although he wore coarse hemp clothes, the temperament he exuded faintly had a noble aura. It was obvious that he was once a wealthy merchant. It was obvious that he was Su Wanqing's father, Su Shi.
The woman also had the temperament of a noble woman. Although her face was somewhat old, it was obvious that she had been a great beauty when she was young. She should be Su Wanqing's mother, Bai Yi.
Su Shi stared blankly at Yang Li and Su Wanqing who had suddenly appeared in front of them. His eyes were filled with doubt and wariness as he asked, "Who are you people? At such a young age, why did you imitate that thief and enter someone else's mansion? "
Hearing Su Shi's words, Su Wanqing could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes. She cried out, "Father, mother, I'm Wan Qing!"
Su Shi and Bai Yi were stunned. They carefully looked at Su Wanqing in front of them. After looking at her three or four times, they confirmed that it was really their daughter, Su Wanqing.
Their eyes suddenly became moist. Bai Yi took a step forward and hugged the crying Su Wanqing, constantly comforting her.
Su Shi wiped his eyes and turned his gaze toward Yang Li, saying, "I'm sorry, young man. I let you see a joke. Who are you to Wan Qing?"
Yang Li smiled and said, "Uncle, you're too polite. My name is Yang Li, Wan Qing's cultivation companion. This time, I specially came to see the two of you."
When Su Shi heard Yang Li's words, his expression suddenly became somewhat ugly. He carefully looked back and forth at Yang Li several times. Then he coldly snorted and said, "Your looks are not bad, barely worthy of our family's Wan Qing." After saying this, Su Shi did not look at Yang Li at all. He looked at Su Wanqing with doting eyes, which made Yang Li feel quite embarrassed.
However, he could understand. After all, there was a saying that every time a girl's parents learned that their daughter had a partner, they would always feel like the cabbage they had been waiting for for many years had been taken away by a pig. Naturally, their mood would become extremely unhappy. Therefore, he accepted Su Shi's unkind expression.
After all, this was one of his future father-in-law. He couldn't help but accept it. From this simple matter, it could be seen that even if Su Shi and Bai Yi weren't Su Wan Qing's biological parents, they absolutely regarded her as their own and doted on her. Their relationship was very good.
