The next morning, Yang Li walked out of a room and headed towards the kitchen.
He could sense that Bai Yi was awake and busy cooking.
Su Shi was still asleep and Su Wanqing was still cultivating. This was a good time to ask Bai Yi about Su Wanqing's past.
When he reached the kitchen, Yang Li knocked on the door. Bai Yi turned her head and saw that it was Yang Li. She smiled and said, "Little Li, why are you awake so early?"
"Good morning, Aunty. I've come especially to ask you something," Yang Li smiled.
"Hm? What is it? " Yang Li's words made Bai Yi curious. She didn't know why Yang Li would come looking for her. If it was because of Su Wanqing's preferences, the two of them had known each other for a long time.
"This question might be a bit presumptuous, please forgive me," Yang Li said after a moment of silence.
"You and Wan Qing are dao companions. If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to hide it," Bai Yi smiled.
"Aunty, is Wan Qing your biological daughter?" Yang Li said slowly.
"Hm? You don't know? " Bai Yi was surprised when she heard this question. "Wan Qing isn't our biological daughter. We adopted her. Wan Qing knew this a long time ago. Didn't she tell you?"
Hearing this, Yang Li was startled for a moment and said, "This brat really doesn't know. Wanqing has never mentioned it before."
"It's okay. Since you've asked, I'll tell you. It's not a big deal."
"In the past, the Su family was doing well, but because of my body, I didn't have any children. Your Uncle Su wanted a child, so I felt very guilty.
"It just so happened that I saw an abandoned baby on the side of the road when I went out to play in the carriage. It was placed on a big rock. I was tempted because I didn't know if my body could be healed. Rather than that, I might as well adopt the baby."
"So I brought her home. The abandoned baby was Wan Qing," Bai Yi said as she recalled. She told the story of how she found Wan Qing.
"When I brought Wan Qing back, there was a jade pendant in the blanket. Wan Qing's name was engraved on the jade pendant. It must have been left to her by her biological parents. To make it easier for her to find her parents, we gave her the same name as Su Wanqing."
"We've told her about this a long time ago. Although we adopted her, we treated her like our own and never let her suffer any grievances. Plus, Su Wan Qing has never said that she's looking for her biological parents. Xiao Li, are you mentioning this because you know where her biological parents are?" Bai Yi was puzzled.
Yang Li heard this and nodded silently.
"What is the background of Wan Qing's parents? Where are they? " Bai Yi's sudden question surprised Yang Li. From what he knew, Su Shi and Bai Yi were not the kind of people who would curry favor with those in power. Asking about the background of Wan Qing's biological parents seemed a bit snobbish.
"Wan Qing's biological parents should be in the central region and their family should be quite well-off." Yang Li thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. He felt that the two of them were not snobbish people. "The central region is too far away.
"The Middle Region? That's too far. Looks like it will be very difficult to see Wanqing in the future. However, this is also good. After all, they are her biological parents, and their family background is also quite good. If they can make Wanqing happy, then the two of us can be at ease. Our Su family's current situation is indeed not good, ai." Bai Yi was clearly somewhat disappointed when she heard Yang Li's words.
After all, she had raised Su Wanqing for so many years and had long regarded her as her own daughter. Now that she suddenly found out that it would be difficult to see her in the future, she was naturally very sad.
"Auntie, don't worry. I already understand the situation in your family. I will help you settle this matter when I get back." Yang Li had learned about the changes in the Su family through yesterday's conversation.
The reason why the Su family had become like this was because of another big family in the city, the Qi family. The Qi family also had a cultivator, and it was a cultivator from the two sects. The Su family and the Qi family did not get along, so there was often friction between them.
A few years ago, when the two sects were at their most arrogant, the Qi family used their son to ruthlessly suppress the Su family, causing the Su family's status in the city to plummet. In the end, all the servants and guards left and even their property was emptied.
When Yang Li heard about this yesterday, he was furious and wanted to go directly to the Qi family. In the end, because Su Wanqing's condition was not good, he was afraid that something might happen to the three of them, so he did not leave immediately.
"Oh, by the way, auntie, there is one thing you can rest assured about. Wan Qing's surname will not be changed because her biological father's surname is also Su. You can rest assured." Yang Li said with a smile.
"Really? That's great! " Bai Yi was also very surprised. After all, the surname Su for so many years suddenly changed to another surname. If Wan Qing felt uncomfortable, they would not feel comfortable either. Now that the ending was like this, everyone was happy.
After that, Yang Li chatted with Bai Yi for a while. After asking for the direction of the Qi family, he directly soared into the sky and flew in the direction of the Qi family.
…
In the Qi family's meeting hall, Qi Xuan sat in the main seat. A man in black knelt on one knee and reported to him.
"What did you say? The girl from the Su family is back? " Qi Xuan was surprised. As far as he knew, Su Wanqing had been practicing in the Tenlan Sect and rarely left the sect. In addition, Su Wanqing cared about Su Wanqing and had never told her the truth. He was afraid that she would be in danger, so Qi Xuan had never taken Su Wanqing seriously.
But now that he suddenly knew the news of Su Wanqing's return, it made him panic for no reason. He always felt that something bad was going to happen.
"Yes, the spy just sent news that she came back and brought a young man. The man's appearance is very similar to the Yang Li in the rumors in recent months. It is suspected that they are the same person."
"This is troublesome! Yang Li is not a soft-hearted person. If we are not careful, I am afraid that our Qi family will be destroyed! "
"Little Jiu, immediately arrange people to prepare gifts and recruit some guards to go to the Su family. Do your best to remedy the situation. Otherwise, I am afraid that our Qi family will be gone." Qi Xuan thought for a moment, then made a decision and arranged a task for Little Jiu.
"Yes! (No need.) "A clear voice and Little Jiu's voice sounded at the same time.
"Hmm? Who are you! "Qi Xuan heard the clear voice and turned to look at the person.
He saw that the person was wearing a white robe, sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. A cold aura was emitted from his body.
"Just now you mentioned my name. Have you forgotten it now?" Yang Li looked at Qi Xuan with a smile that was not a smile and said.
"But it doesn't matter. You will understand after you go down."
Yang Li directly blasted Qi Xuan with his Spirit Controlling Realm level five. With Qi Xuan's Spirit Movement Realm level nine cultivation, how could he block it? In an instant, he was crushed by the fierce Spirit Force and disappeared from the hall.
Yang Li gently shook his head. His divine sense spread out and killed all the men above the rank of guard captain. However, his wife and children were not involved. Yang Li did not touch the old, weak, women and children. However, even if he did not do it, there would be others who would.
Not everyone was as gentle and principled as Yang Li. The Qi Clan had always been tyrannical in the city, oppressing the good people. There were countless families who had enmity with the Qi Clan. Now that all the leaders of the Qi Clan were dead, they naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity.
Little Jiu, who was by Yang Li's side, was not killed by him. Before Yang Li left, he said, "Your cultivation should be the strongest in the Qi family. Take the Qi family's wealth and go to the Su family to find me. Don't try to escape, or I will make you live a life worse than death!"
Little Nine's entire body was covered in cold sweat. Hearing Yang Li's words, he hurriedly nodded his head. Most likely because of the fear of death, his voice was trembling as he said, "Un … I understand."
When Yang Li heard Little Nine's voice, he did not say anything, directly turning and leaving.
Seeing that Yang Li had completely left, Little Jiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Taking out a jade pendant, he said in a hoarse voice, "Young master, the Qi family is finished!"
"Hmm? What do you mean? Speak clearly! "When Qi Meng heard Little Jiu's words, a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
"The Qi family has been destroyed by Yang Li. Now I also have to escape. Young master Qi, don't even think about revenge. Yang Li is too terrifying!" Little Jiu said again, then crushed the sound transmission imprint in the jade pendant. He quietly put it away and walked towards the Qi Clan's storehouse.
The news of the Qi Clan's leader's death could not be hidden for long. The Qi Clan's guards and servants were in chaos. Very quickly, the other families in the city discovered the situation. When they found out about the Qi Clan's situation, nearly half of the families in the city gathered their strongest subordinates and headed towards the Qi Clan's residence. They wanted to annihilate the entire Qi Clan in one battle, leaving not a single chicken or dog alive!
However, all of this had nothing to do with Yang Li. At this time, Yang Li had just returned to the Su Clan's residence and was chatting with Bai Yi and the others.
Su Wanqing did not seem to know about the news that she had just spoken of. She still had a smile on her face as she accompanied Su Shi and Bai Yi. Su Wanqing's silvery laughter and Su Shi's doting laughter rang out incessantly, causing Yang Li to feel envy. He could not help but think of his parents who had disappeared, and his heart felt a little sad.
As if sensing Yang Li's sadness, Bai Yi pondered for a moment before saying, "Su Shi, I acknowledge Yang Li as my son-in-law. What do you think?"
Su Wanqing's face immediately turned red. However, Su Shi did not feel so good and his expression became ugly. He looked at Yang Li with dissatisfaction, causing Yang Li to feel awkward.
After watching for a while, Su Shi looked at Su Wanqing and said, "Wan Qing, do you want to marry him?"
When Su Wanqing heard Su Shi's words, her face became even redder, and she shyly nodded.
Su Shi sighed and said, "Men and women should get married when they're of age. I can't keep my daughter, ai."
"Stinking brat, let me make it clear to you. If my Wan Qing is wronged because of you, I will definitely go to her house to seek justice! Bai Yi and I have doted on her since she was young, we will not let her be wronged with you! "
Su Shi's voice was very strict, with the aura of a scholar. After hearing this, Yang Li nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Don't worry, Uncle. I won't let the late Qing Dynasty down. If I've done anything wrong, Uncle can punish me as you wish!"
Su Shi's complexion eased a bit. He and Bai Yi were originally close to Su Wan Qing. At this time, he also took the initiative to give way. He got up and walked to Bai Yi's side and sat down, leaving the position for Yang Li.
