As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1564 - 415: Above Martial Saint Lies Martial Immortal, and I Tread on Thin Ice Because I Love Backstabbing [Monthly Ticket Requested]
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
"Capture him!" Xi Xi’s small voice rang out, filled with more resolve than ever before!
"Their Sect Master was just killed! Hey, the Young Sect Master should be the one in charge now; let’s track down their Young Sect Master and give him a beating!"
Xi Xi was brimming with a fierce fighting spirit.
"That is far too risky!"
Yun E shook her head, her expression grave.
"The Heavenly Pill Divine Sect possesses power equal to our Qian Yuan. Even though the Imperial Court has drafted many of their powerful cultivators, they are still a force to be reckoned with."
Zhou Peng quickly chimed in: "Sister Yun E is right. We need to stay on course and reach the True Martial Divine Sect quickly to finish the mission Elder Li gave us..."
Yun E shifted her gaze from Zhou Peng to Xi Xi: "At the end of the day, the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect is a Divine Sect. Even with the Sect Master gone, they still house many Martial Saints and Divine Fetuses. Being one of the wealthiest Divine Sects globally, their tally of elite cultivators might actually exceed ours at Qian Yuan..."
"I am aware of how strong you are, Xi Xi, especially after taking first place at the Flat Peach Victory Meeting and the Chulong Victory Conference, but... we are still only children."
"We aren't capable of defeating those adults yet."
As she listened to Yun E’s sincere advice, Xi Xi had somehow drifted over to her side. She plucked the small rabbit from Yun E’s arms and balanced it on her own head, nestled between her pigtails, her large eyes sparkling.
"Mm-hmm, Sister Yun E, you are so beautiful, and you’re right!"
Little Fatty Zhou Peng felt instantly slighted; did his words carry no weight just because he, Zhou Peng, wasn't as good-looking?
Turning toward the quiet Jin Taixui, Little Fatty Zhou Peng asked: "Old Jin, what’s your take?"
Jin Taixui remained silent for a long moment before saying: "I believe Xi Xi is right."
Fuming with frustration, Zhou Peng shoved three buns into his mouth at once, effectively silencing himself.
"If we are going to visit Guangling Dao City, we can look around, but we must keep a low profile and avoid trouble. Our primary goal remains traveling the Tongyou Road to the True Martial Divine Sect to fulfill the task Elder Li entrusted to us."
Yun E leaned down on her long legs, a playful grin appearing as she gave Xi Xi’s cheek a pinch.
Xi Xi didn't protest.
She considered the situation; with her current Cultivation, she didn't fear a Great Grandmaster, but if a Martial Saint appeared...
She would likely have to flee while clutching her stomach.
Sigh, wandering the martial world is truly difficult.
After letting out a sigh, Xi Xi dashed energetically toward the outskirts of Guangling Dao City. Finding a tree, she dug a small hole and, with a wave of her hand, manifested a Thunder Chess Piece, burying the white stone inside.
"This is a Thunder Chess Piece my father gave me. With this... I, Li Nuanxi, am the greatest escape artist in the world!"
Xi Xi declared with a bright, cheerful grin.
"When things get dangerous, just stay close to me, and I can teleport you away."
Because he was so concerned with Xi Xi’s martial training, Li Che had naturally invested a great deal of effort.
He had condensed the essence of the Dao Fruits of the Dragon Elephant Vajra and the Chess Saint into a Dao Fruit image, which he then integrated into Xi Xi’s body.
Consequently, Xi Xi was now able to utilize certain Dao Fruit characteristics.
This included the Flying Thunder Chess Piece Teleportation, the small chessboard between heaven and earth, the Slumbering Dragon Elephant, and the Vajra Transformation of the Dragon Elephant Vajra.
Naturally, her version could not rival the true Dao Fruit Power that Li Che himself wielded.
Only Xi Xi, acting as a Dominator Avatar, could support Li Che’s Dao Fruit because of their unique paternal bond.
No one else was capable of carrying the Dao Fruit Power.
Li Che had attempted it with Zhang Ya, but she could not withstand it; only Xi Xi was compatible.
"Let’s move!"
Once the Thunder Chess Piece was buried, Xi Xi even used her foot to stomp the earth flat over it.
Then, she and her friends set off toward Guangling Dao City.
The four children, disguised as traveling Jianghu Guests, entered Guangling Dao City as the snow swirled around them.
...
Guangling Dao City.
Mountain Gate of the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect.
Purple Gold Refining Pavilion.
"Clang clang clang——"
Within the sweltering heat of the Alchemy Pavilion, a massive pill furnace suddenly let out a sharp, resonant ring.
The figure in robes sitting cross-legged before the furnace, hair in a state of disarray, slowly opened their eyes.
A flash of crimson blood-red light darted through their pupils.
"What an exquisite scent of refined human medicine..."
"The Heavens are truly smiling upon me!"
...
Qian Yuan Divine Sect.
Elder Court, Study.
Li Che gradually opened his eyes as the vision concluded.
"It is a good thing Yun E is with them. Without her, nobody would be able to control the wild spirit of Xi Xi... That girl, if left unchecked, might actually try to invade the Divine Capital to assassinate the Emperor."
"She doesn't even stop to think if her Cultivation is high enough..."
Li Che gave a slow shake of his head.
"So, they have arrived in Guangling Dao City?"
The Heavenly Pill Divine Sect had just lost its leader—a top-tier Great God’s Sect Master had perished—and since Guangling Dao was right next to Lingnan Circuit, the news had already reached him.
By leaving a fragment of his divine mind, he was able to constantly monitor and track the progress of the children's training.
Li Che then focused his thoughts inward.
He intended to use the Instant Enlightenment Feedback from the Dao Fruit to further refine himself.
However, a sudden thought struck him.
The [Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons] Dao Fruit in his chest seemed to be pulsing with a rhythmic sense of indignation.
Reflecting on this, Li Che gave a soft smile, stood up, and took a lazy stretch.
"I nearly forgot about those four demon dragons..."
The Dragon God Clan might be called the Dragon Clan, but in essence, they are simply part of the Demon Race.
The Dragon God Crown Prince and the three Dragon Sons could execute a Combined Skill that yielded power equivalent to a Half-step Dragon God level being...
During the conflict with the imperial army that had surrounded the mountain to destroy the Sect, they had caused significant trouble for the Qian Yuan Divine Sect.
Had it not been for the sudden power of Fang Hanshu, resisting the might of the court’s forces would have been incredibly difficult.
Furthermore, Li Che remembered the time they assassinated Xie Yun Shen, specifically the God Hunter Killer from the Hunting God Pavilion who had obstructed Gu Qianchi, the Divine Tribulation Great Cultivator.
"The Great Elder... was actually a God Hunter Killer."
Li Che’s eyes narrowed slightly at the thought.
Even though Fang Hanshu had hidden his presence, the Star Vortex Mask had made his aura indistinguishable from his true self.
