I Can’t Be a Sword God

"Um?"

Hearing this voice, Yan Ren's eyes were filled with confusion. Because he could hear it clearly, it was clearly his father's voice.

But why did dad scold him before he even entered the door?

Is there something wrong?

Sure enough, a pair of big feet stepped into the door of the room in the next second, and a majestic middle-aged man walked in with the sound of the wind, looking menacing, and there were many generals from the Yan family following behind.

It was Yan Ren's father, Yan Linan who was in charge of the second room of the Yan family.

In Yanling City, he can be regarded as a real power figure.

But looking at it like this, it seems that he is not the leader of the team yet, but just an opener, surrounded by the crowd in the center, is a woman in a black cloak.

The woman's whole body was covered under a cloak, her face was calm, and she couldn't tell how old she was. It's just that the vicissitudes of life can be seen in those eyes, which indicates that she is by no means young. There is still a strong but not strong coercion around the body, so that those who are close can feel the invisible pressure.

Yan Ren also seemed to know this woman, and when he saw her face, he immediately showed a look of awe, and shouted: "Third grandma?"

The woman he called grandma stood at the door, motionless, neither answering nor speaking, just watching quietly.

Yan Linan strode forward, walked up to Li Chu, and said with a smile: "Oh, is this the little friend Li Chu? I don't know what wrong things the dog did to offend the little friend? Please rest assured, when I go back, I will He must be disciplined severely."

"Father..." Yan Ren said weakly, "I didn't mess with this little Taoist priest."

"Shut your mouth!" Yan Linan suddenly became furious, and slapped him across the face.

Snapped--

This slap was so hard that Yan Ren flew out sideways, knocked down a table before landing, and didn't get up for a while.

The eyes of all the people present trembled.

"Young friend Li Chu is supposed to be my equal. You have to be called Uncle Li. You don't know any manners." Yan Linan said angrily.

He looked at Li Chu again, and heard Li Chu say lightly: "He really didn't mess with me."

"Oh." Yan Linan immediately rubbed his hands with a smile, "It's fine if you don't have one, I'm afraid you'll have conflicts. Why is the atmosphere so tense? I'll make Yan Ren reflect on it when I go back..."

The smile is so kind.

Like a kind old father.

Yan Ren hasn't gotten up yet, but tears are already streaming down his face.

There was even a little lack of self-confidence in his heart, this middle-aged man who was very dark towards him and treated Li Chu kindly... Who is the father?

Yan Linan looked left and right again, then turned around, and said to the woman: "It seems that there is nothing wrong, no one was injured, and there was no big trouble. Hehe, I even alarmed you, Third Aunt, really... "

"Father..." Yan Ren struggled to get up, leaned over and said, "No one was injured, but someone died..."

"Who?" Yan Linan frowned, seeming extremely displeased.

"It's the fourth uncle's son... Yan Wuxie." Yan Ren gestured to the air with his hand, "I was standing here just now, such a big living person, but that little Taoist priest..."

Speaking of this, he felt his father glaring at him viciously. Yan Ren thought it was the wrong address for him, so he hurriedly changed his words: "I was killed by Uncle Li's sword..."

"Shut up!" Yan Linan was suddenly furious, and slapped him again with his backhand.

Bang——

This slap was harder than before, Yan Ren flew out again in another direction, smashed another table, and saw the stars in the sky.

"How could Xiao Daoist Li kill people in public?" Yan Li Nanton shouted, then with a fierce look in his eyes, he looked around, "Who saw that?"

The juniors of the Yan family who were present were all subordinates, and they had always feared him like a tiger, and the good girls beside him were even more afraid to speak out, all the ones he watched were trembling, how could anyone dare to speak out?

Everyone could see that Yan Linan was determined to protect the little Taoist priest, so naturally no one would touch this bad luck.

"Hmph..." Yan Linan snorted, just as he was about to relax.

Suddenly Li Chudao said: "I did kill Yan Wuxie."

If it weren't for his tone, it would be quite flat, calm and full of what should be expected.

Yan Linan would probably interpret this as a provocation.

It seems to be saying... I will kill, what can you do? hit me? Are you angry?

"..."

Yan Linan was silent for a while, and then showed an amiable smile again: "Even if Daoist Li killed someone, there must be a reason... I will make the deceased reflect on it when I go back..."

Yan Ren's tears flowed down the red and swollen cheeks and formed a river...

"Yan Wuxie abandoned his wife and daughter. He deserves death. It is indeed not wrong to kill him." The woman suddenly said, "Your master wrote it very clearly in the letter to me."

Yu Qi'an did have a handwritten letter at that time, but Li Chu and the others didn't read the content, so they left it with the token.

It seems that the person entrusted by the master is indeed this woman.

In fact, he could have guessed it a long time ago, who doesn't know that Yu Guanzhu's letters are only written to women?

"Haha, that's good, then it's fine." Yan Linan seemed to wipe the cold sweat off his brow, and looked at the general beside him, "Bring up this traitor, let's go!"

A large number of votes stepped forward and lifted Yan Ren, who was beaten by his own father, and withdrew from the room.

Yan Linan came to the woman's side and whispered: "Then third aunt, I'll go back first?"

"Go." The woman glanced at him, and said: "Your children in the second room need to be strictly disciplined, how can the Yan family pass into the hands of such a temperamental person?"

"I didn't think that kid Yan Wuxie was his father's own!" Yan Linan said seriously, "He is at best... a temporary child."

"Third Aunt, please rest assured..."

"I'll go back and hurry up with the arrangements... No, hurry up and investigate, he will definitely be expelled from the door wall of the second room of my Yan family!"

Yan Linan tremblingly led the people away like this.

Others in the room also sneaked away.

Suddenly, only Li Chu and the woman were left in the huge room.

"Thank you senior for upholding morality." Li Chu said.

Naturally, he didn't think that Yan Linan was really so talkative, and the only explanation was that the woman in front of him was helping.

"The Yan family has a luxuriant branch system. There are nearly ten thousand people in the whole family. It is inevitable that there will be mixed good and bad. But like Yan Wuxie, it is just an exception." The woman smiled for the first time, "I hope it will not affect your love for Yan. Impressions of home."

"No." Li Chu shook his head.

"Say hello to your master for me." The woman said this again lightly, then turned and left.

Not even a name was left.

It can be seen that he is also a very cold person.

Looking at the woman's indifferent back, Wang Longqi shook his head emotionally, "I'm tired of saying Yu Guanzhu's awesome words..."

"The inheritance of Deyun Temple... is really worthy of my lifelong study." Duranke also sighed with deep emotion.

...

Deyun Temple.

"Ah-choo—" Yu Qi'an sneezed violently.

Then he rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "One thought, two scolding, three Fenghan... I don't know who missed me... Ah Xie——"

Before he finished speaking, he sneezed a second time.

On the opposite side, Li Maoqing wiped his face with a livid face.

He said coldly: "I don't know who scolded you."

"Hehe, no." Yu Qi'an shook his head and smiled, "It's the two of you who missed me together."

"I have been a human being in two lifetimes, and I have traveled far and wide, and I am used to seeing the world, but this is the first time I have seen a thick-skinned person like Yu Guanzhu..." Li Maoqing said.

"There are three key points in cultivating the Tao, which are nothing more than boldness, carefulness, and thick skin." Yu Qi'an didn't refute, but talked eloquently, "One is indispensable..."

Li Maoqing couldn't help asking: "The way you practice...is it serious?"

"Hehe." Yu Qi'an smiled without saying a word.

"Actually, I'm very curious. Daoist Li came to find trouble with the Yan family. The Yan family is as rich as it is, and it has its own majestic laws. Even if he can forcibly kill people, it is bound to make things worse. What are you looking for? An acquaintance? Can settle this matter." Li Maoqing asked again.

"It's just an acquaintance within the Yan family." Yu Qi'an said: "I think back then, everyone in the world called her Miss Yan San, but now everyone in the world calls her Grandma Yan San..."

"Grandma Yan San!" Li Maoqing was surprised, "That's the youngest land fairy in the Yan family, if you don't count those old guys who are in doubt about life and death, it may be the only land fairy in the Yan family. Yu Guanzhu... unexpectedly Intersect with her?"

"When young, slightly intersected."

Yu Qi'an said simply, "I haven't seen you for many years now."

"It's just a slight intersection?" Li Maoqing looked suspiciously, "Then why would she help you deal with your own family?"

"Well...friendship is only one aspect." Yu Qi'an said with a smile: "On the other hand, any upright person will naturally help punish that villain. And..."

"I also explained in my letter to her..."

The old Taoist stroked his beard, "My apprentice alone may not be able to destroy her Yan family."

As soon as these words came out, Li Maoqing's hands seemed to tremble, "Is Guanzhu Yu joking?"

"Master Guoshi has lived in my Deyun Temple for a long time, am I joking, what do you think?" Yu Qi'an was there.

Li Maoqing was silent for a while.

Then he raised his head, "Xiao Daoist Li...what's going on?"

"What is the national teacher asking?" Yu Qi'an asked back.

"He is obviously not a reincarnation of great power, but in this life...in eighteen or nineteen years, he has cultivated to such an unfathomable level." Li Maoqing's expression became serious, "This is beyond what talent can explain."

"I don't know." Yu Qi'an shook his head.

However, Li Maoqing didn't seem to believe him, and looked directly at Yu Qi'an: "Xiao Daoist Li... is it really..."

He slowly spit out two words: "Xianyuan."

"Oh?" Yu Qi'an smiled again, "Master National Teacher also knows about Xianyuan?"

"Although I haven't caught up with that era, I have heard a little bit... that there were a lot of troubles in the south of the Yangtze River because of the fairy fate." Li Maoqing said: "Please tell the truth to Master Yu."

"To tell the truth..." The old Taoist didn't hold back, and shook his head very directly: "No."

"Huh?" Li Maoqing didn't seem to believe it.

"I know you have been suspicious of Li Chu these days, but I can tell you very clearly that my apprentice is a good person."

The old Taoist was rarely serious.

"Moreover, he is a noble person, a moral person, a pure person, a person who is free from vulgar interests, and a person who is beneficial to the common people..."

"That's right..." Li Maoqing also smiled, "Little Daoist Li really..."

"You don't have to laugh, I know what you're thinking." Yu Qi'an continued: "You people in the court are used to seeing dirty things, so it's easy to think bad things. Since ancient times, there has been a way of being ruthless But I advise you not to have any bad thoughts about my apprentice, although he is upright, he is not stupid."

"If you want to plot against him, even if he agrees, I, a master, won't agree."

"How could I have a bad heart..."

Li Maoqing's smile seemed forced.

"The scariest thing is to use that kind of self-proclaimed righteousness to do wolf-hearted things." Yu Qi'an pointed to the mouth of the well on one side, and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you ask me what's in the well before?"

"What?" Li Maoqing asked.

Yu Qi'an approached him and whispered something.

"This!" Li Maoqing immediately jumped up from the stone bench in shock, pointed at Yu Qi'an, trembling again and again, "So it's you... So it's you..."

After a while, he calmed down and sat back down again.

"In your Deyun Temple, there is no normal person."

"Haha." Yu Qi'an laughed again: "Of course, I know that Master Guo Shi still regards us as friends. It's just that when you return to the court in the future, you will inevitably do things towards that side. It's just a kind reminder. Anyway, it's just... don't say it's unexpected..."

"I understand." Li Maoqing's smile now seemed much more sincere.

"It's good if you understand, let's continue playing chess." Yu Qi'an said.

"Okay." Li Maoqing looked at the chessboard again.

The cool wind blows, the clothes flutter, and the old locust tree has regained the tranquility of the years.

only……

"Hey, Guanzhu Yu, did you secretly change the chess pieces while you were talking?"

Li Maoqing's voice sounded again quickly.

"It's nothing, don't talk nonsense." Yu Qi'an categorically denied it.

"Looking at your upright and serious appearance, I thought you were a good person. If you do this again, no one will play with you two..."

"I swear on your dignity!"

"We can't lose our conscience as human beings..."

The noisy voice of the two old men spread into the house.

Baby Thunder Dragon, who was holding a book and reading silently, put down the book, looked up at the sky outside the window, where the four corners of the roof were drawn, and couldn't help leaning on his chin and sighing: "Hey..."

...

In the mansion of the second bedroom of the Yan family.

Yan Ren was lying on the bed, and Yan Linan was sitting by the bed, sighing: "Ren'er, are you still blaming your father for beating you?"

"Hmm..." Yan Ren rolled his eyes, saw his father's iron palm still hanging in the air, and shook his head resolutely, "No, absolutely not."

Yan Linan's hand still fell, but he touched Yan Ren's head.

"I'm doing this for your own good." He said slowly, "I don't know why that little Taoist priest was able to invite Third Aunt to help out. She has never liked mundane affairs and never got involved in family affairs. But once Speaking, whoever dares to disobey in the slightest, is not kidding!"

"Father, the child knows." Yan Ren replied.

"Especially now is the critical juncture when the Patriarch is about to change." Yan Linan continued.

"I am similar to those in the other rooms in terms of cultivation, achievements, and power. It is not just a matter of what the ancestors say to choose who will be in charge?"

"Compared to those old ancestors, although Third Aunt is young, she has the highest level of cultivation! On the contrary, her words have the most weight. So at this time, no matter who I offend, I can't offend her."

"As long as I become the head of the family, who else will succeed me in the future except you?" Yan Linan pressed Yan Ren's shoulder, "Son, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years..."

"That's right!" Yan Ren seemed to be mobilized by his father's words, gritted his teeth and said, "Thirty years in Hexi, thirty years in Hedong...I want to bear it!"

"There was a change in Huaxu's Secret Realm the day before yesterday, and I won the right to take charge of this matter for you. Then you will work hard inside and make some credits, and you will also gain face for your father."

"My child must work hard!" Yan Ren said.

"I heard that the last time the Qi family achieved extraordinary results in the secret realm, it was because of the help of a strange person. He possessed special supernatural powers and was very powerful in that secret realm. Moreover, the strange person and the Qi family were only in an employment relationship. Now all seven families After entering the Huaxu Secret Realm, everyone has their eyes on this person..." Yan Linan said again.

"Are we going to invite that person?" Yan Ren said immediately.

"Of course, it's just that the Qi family has a very strict tone of voice and has always refused to disclose any information..." Yan Linan said with a smile: "It's just that the Chu family who entered the secret realm together with them seems to have some clues. I found out that Chu Xiangyu has already left Yes. Ren'er, this time you go out, as long as you follow Chu Xiangyu closely, you should be able to find that person, and you must move him!"

"Okay!" Yan Ren got up from the bed and nodded heavily: "The child will definitely live up to father's expectations!"

"Father believes in you." Yan Linan nodded in satisfaction, "You child... you've been smart since you were young."

This month of Chinese New Year is really difficult... Finally passed... I wish you all a happy March.
