Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 446 - 287: Nothing Happened Today, It’s All a Misunderstanding

Chapter 446: Chapter 287: Nothing Happened Today, It’s All a Misunderstanding

The old man looked at his obedient granddaughter, and the granddaughter looked at the old man, speechless.

Old Sect Leader Li sat at the table with a blank expression, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

He might be a steady and mature sect leader, but he wasn’t a good father or grandfather. For some people, this might not mean much, but Old Sect Leader Li was a stubborn man.

When there are things that you’ve done wrong, you should find ways to make amends.

But this old face...

Old Sect Leader Li was in a dilemma, but his granddaughter spoke first.

"Grandpa, can I ask you something?"

"Speak," Old Sect Leader Li replied somewhat awkwardly, like any ordinary elderly man.

"After Spirit Fusion, why do clothes change as well? Also, if I am congenitally disabled, can the Spirit Fusion Technique restore me?"

Li Yueqi tossed back at her grandfather the foolish questions Zhang Ze had asked her.

These questions left Old Sect Leader Li a bit stunned for a moment, but he soon started to laugh.

"Grandpa, why are you laughing?" Li Yueqi sat on the bed, picked an orange from the small table, and began peeling it.

"Your father also asked the first question," said Old Sect Leader Li.

"My father?"

"Yes. Although he never learned it in the end, when I taught him this trick as a child, he asked the same question."

Old Sect Leader Li accepted the peeled orange handed over by Li Yueqi. "Everything in this world, when traced to its roots, is transformed from that original strand of Qi between heaven and earth."

After speaking, the orange in his hand began to change.

Spiritual Qi gathered at the old man’s fingertips, and the orange peel reappeared, becoming whole again.

Li Yueqi widened her eyes, "So if you practice this technique to the very end, wouldn’t it mean you could create anything?"

"Perhaps, I don’t know. After all, even I haven’t practiced it to the end. Without my thoughts, these creations from nothing would dissipate."

Old Sect Leader Li placed the orange back on the table, and once out of his control, the spontaneously generated orange peel dissipated back into the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.

"If that’s the case, doesn’t it mean I could change clothes at will? Wear whatever I want just by a thought?"

"Yes, but you can’t do it yet. To achieve that, you need to cultivate to the Second Layer."

"Troublesome." Li Yueqi sighed. "Is there any shortcut?"

"There is, but it has nothing to do with the Spirit Fusion Technique."

The grandfather and granddaughter chatted on this topic, both being rather wooden-headed people, they always found endless topics to discuss once they started.

But as they talked, the conversation circled back to family matters.

"You don’t resent me and your parents?" Old Sect Leader Li put down his teacup and asked.

"You haven’t done anything wrong, why would I resent you? See, Li Jue is cheerfully happy every day. It’s just my own stubbornness." Li Yueqi shook her head.

"As for my father, what does my dad look like?" asked Li Yueqi as a child left behind.

Old Sect Leader Li, "..."

What a sorrowful question.

Perhaps finding this question too sad, and also because the grandfather and granddaughter had opened up in conversation, Old Sect Leader Li shifted the topic dramatically and suddenly talked about another matter.

"Do you know why, as cultivators advance in cultivation, their offspring are fewer?"

"Oh, why?" Li Yueqi didn’t understand why her grandfather was bringing up this topic, so she asked subconsciously.

"Because cultivating the Heartless Path is a dead end, to ascend to immortality, one must remain human.

"And if you have too many offspring, inevitably there will be situations where sons die before fathers, and having relatives pass away before oneself is a very sad thing."

"It’s better to focus on quality. To achieve this, methods are crucial."

"So without meticulous preparation, and without the right timing, location, and harmony, some things cannot be done."

"Our Beast Taming Sect is no less than their Sword Sect. Whatever you decide to do, I, your grandfather, will support you. But this matter... should not happen too early, or it will be very troublesome."

Click.

Li Yueqi snapped off a piece of the table corner.

"Nothing happened!"

Old Sect Leader Li waved his hand, indicating he knew everything, wore a face of an old man realizing children’s wings had grown strong, and turned to leave the room.

As she saw her grandfather about to leave, Li Yueqi suddenly remembered something, "Aren’t you going to ask about Zhang Ze knowing the Spirit Fusion Technique?"

The old man waved his hand, "It’s not important, if he knows it, it’s as expected."

After hearing her grandfather’s cryptic remarks, Li Yueqi sat on the bed, her face turning blue and white alternately. After thinking for a long time, she decided to go and beat up Li Jue first.

He must have said some things he shouldn’t have in front of grandpa. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

This child cannot be kept!

Having changed her clothes, Female Hero Li went out to search, but couldn’t find any trace of her brother.

It was as if he had caught wind of something early and fled the country without a trace.

Approaching dusk, Li Yueqi only found Xia Yan.

"Where’s Li Jue?" Li Yueqi asked as she pushed the door open.

Xia Yan was crouching by a large fish tank, using a small cauldron to cast spells to refine pill medicine, while an odd sea race creature half fish, half plant in the tank watched curiously and used Qi to write notes with a pen and notebook.

"Li Jue, oh, he said he often missed his parents since he hadn’t seen them for a long time, and since he has nothing to do with Qinghe now, he said he was going to the West Continent to find his mom."

Xia Yan said without looking up.

Li Yueqi clenched her fists; she was now one hundred percent sure that her grandfather’s demeanor had everything to do with this bastard.

"Oh, by the way, Li Jue said before going to the West Continent, he wanted to go to Thousand Mechanism Pavilion to buy some things. You might still catch him there."

"Understood." Li Yueqi nodded, then took off her wrist guard, entered Spirit Fusion state, and disappeared from the room.
