My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

177 His Strength is Not Enough

The Li family’s manor was very large, so large that it was extremely spacious even when the Li family’s six branches, numbering in the thousands, were stuffed inside.

The side branches, the sixth branch, and the direct line of descent advanced layer by layer, forming the shape of the Li family’s courtyard.

The most central location was the residence of the family head, Li Zeren.

In the study, Li Zeren was handling family affairs.

A middle-aged man dressed like a butler walked in respectfully and said, “Old Master, Qin Huai has already set off.”

“Yes, I know.” Li Zeren’s voice was calm, and he seemed very unconcerned. He wrote a reply to the letter in his hand and threw it on the pile of letters on his left.

“Is there anything else?” Li Zeren looked up at the butler. He had a pair of squinty eyes, a benevolent face, and a somewhat plump appearance that made people not get angry.

This was his younger brother and one of his most capable right-hand men, Li Zetao.

Li Zetao hesitated. “I received some news yesterday. I don’t know if I should tell you.”

“Zetao, just tell me.” Li Zeren smiled faintly.

“Yesterday, I received some news that a junior of the Zhang family, Zhang Haoyue’s trusted aide, Zhang Chengyi, had privately contacted a few elites of the county governor’s mansion. The leader seems to be Wu Zian.” Li Zetao looked at Li Zeren’s face.

“Wu Zian. I haven’t heard this name for a long time.” Li Zeren’s pen paused, and a touch of regret appeared on his face. “Two years ago, this boy was one of the top three geniuses in Lingjiang. Unfortunately, he failed the bone pattern and fell to the eighth refinement.”

“Yes, it’s extremely dangerous to break through the bone pattern realm. Even Wu Zian, a proud son of heaven, would not be able to escape,” Li Zetao said slowly. “However, even if that kid falls to the eighth refinement, ordinary ninth refinement martial artists are not his match, let alone a seventh refinement.”

“So what are you trying to say? Did he say that Haoyue wants to make a move on that brat?” Li Zeren chuckled.

“You and I have seen what kind of person Haoyue is all these years. The younger generation of the Zhang and Li families basically follow his lead.”

“He is considerate of his fellow disciples and treats them equally. Benevolent, resourceful, and even more talented… On the other hand, what does Qin Huai have? A Blood Dragon Platform’s score of over 40?”

“Haoyue would collude with the enemy for such a person?” Seeing this, Li Zetao could only laugh bitterly. “I think I’m thinking too much.”

He knew that although his eldest brother had pinched his nose and acknowledged Qin Huai as his son-in-law, and even had a tough attitude when Song Ya wanted him back, he was still very stubborn.

However, in his heart, he still only recognized Zhang Haoyue, even until now. Moreover, his big brother had not stopped the marriage between Li Shaoxiang and Zhang Haoyue.

“Zetao, Haoyue is different from the others. He’s ten thousand times stronger than his father. His eyes are not on the Zhang and Li families, but the future of the Nine Dragons sect!” Li Zeren’s words were firm. “If Haoyue succeeds and becomes the Nine Dragons sect master, I’m willing to assist him. At that time, our Li family will definitely not suffer a loss!”

“Big Brother, you can’t say such things!” Li Zetao’s heart skipped a beat. There would definitely be another round of wrangling.

“I know. Isn’t it only when you and I are here that we can say something sincere?” Li Zeren smiled and patted Li Zetao’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, Qin Huai has a group of experts accompanying him on this trip. Haoyue won’t let anything happen to him. Haoyue, this brat, is very ambitious. He won’t make any irrational decisions just because of Qin Huai.”

“He’s not worthy either.” Li Zetao smiled bitterly. He knew that Li Zeren had made up his mind.

…

“Son-in-law, be careful.” Qingshui sent Qin Huai off at the door.

“Don’t worry.” Qin Huai nodded.

He thought he was alone, but he didn’t expect Li Buhu to run over as well.

“Brother-in-law, I’ll go with you!” Li Buhu seemed to be even stronger than a few days ago.

On the day they returned from Green Feather Tower, Qin Huai taught Li Buhu the essentials of the blood dragon form.

As expected, Li Buhu had extraordinary talent in his physical body. He only used two days to get used to the white gas entering his blood, qi, and muscles.

Although the increase in strength was not as shocking as Qin Huai’s after activating boiling blood, Li Buhu had an innate advantage. Once he activated his blood dragon form, his strength was shocking.

In the same form, he was on par with Qin Huai, or even slightly stronger.

However, there was still a long way to go before he could push the entire white dragon into his muscles and blood essence and activate the colossal blood dragon form.

“I’m afraid this trip will be extremely dangerous. It’s not appropriate for you to travel with me.” Qin Huai was suspicious.

“Brother-in-law, I’m afraid that my old man will go back on his word and not do his best to protect you. As long as I stay by Brother-in-law’s side, I won’t dare to do anything. I guarantee that I’ll be watching you without blinking for twenty-four hours.” Li Buhu chuckled brightly. He rubbed his nose and puffed out his chest, as if he was telling Qin Huai how smart he was.

Qin Huai looked at the big guy beside him and laughed involuntarily. “With you by my side, I really feel at ease.”

Qin Huai was a little dazed. Li Buhu reminded him of his disciple, Hu Jinghai. He wondered where that kid was now and what he was doing.

“However, with the poison technique that I taught him, coupled with the fact that his brain is quite active, although his cultivation level is not high, it should not be a problem for him to mingle in an ordinary small city.” Qin Huai sighed in his heart.

There were too many people he needed to worry about, and his strength was not enough. This feeling was really unpleasant.
