Chapter 59: Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin, Xixi at Three Years Old
Chapter 59: Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin, Xixi at Three Years Old
Lu Chi looked at the burly figure of the Ox Demon, as imposing as a mountain, and slowly walked into the room.
The powerful and intense Qi and blood intertwined, forming a surging wave of energy that spread in all directions.
An inexplicable pressure made Lu Chi's hair stand on end.
Could it be...
Was it true that Big Head said the grip felt good, and he wasn't joking?
In the late evening, was he really going to put it into practice?
Lu Chi, sitting cross-legged on the bed, trembled slightly, but the Divine Nature he had cultivated was already poised and ready to be unleashed, with a spark of fire dancing in his pupils.
If the Ox Demon were to make a move to kill him, he, Lu Chi, would have to summon the Third Prince!
Li Che glanced at Lu Chi, whose entire body was tense.
He, of course, wasn't there to kill Lu Chi. He, the Ox Demon... Although not a good person, he wasn't the type to kill the innocent without reason.
"What's your relationship with that old man?" Li Che asked in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chi immediately understood what Li Che was referring to. His tense heart relaxed slightly as he realized that his master and Li Che had probably discussed this beforehand.
"He is my master," Lu Chi replied.
"Are you from the Divine Sect?" Li Che asked, glancing at Lu Chi.
Inside the room, the raging currents of air continued, and the wind and rain outside became even more intense. The window, which had been pushed open, rattled incessantly.
Lu Chi's body stiffened, but he gradually relaxed, though he didn't respond to Li Che's question. Someone else would provide the answer.
Li Che's eyes, hidden behind his mask, narrowed, and with a clench of his fingers, a Wooden Raven slid from his sleeve into his grasp. His other five fingers twitched, and the Thousand Spider Threads, incredibly fine and sharp, were already taut and ready.
Because inside the room, a figure had suddenly appeared.
The half-white-haired elder, with a face full of wrinkles, wore a gentle smile.
Li Che hadn't even noticed when this elder had entered the room!
"Young friend, there's no need to worry. If I wanted to deal with you, your resistance would be futile."
"But I'm quite surprised. How did you manage to kill Si Mubai?"
The elder chuckled as he spoke.
Under Li Che's black elastic suit, nine thick tendons tightened, and every muscle in his body, like raging dragons, roared with the intertwining of Qi and blood.
"Although Si Mubai was struck by Lu Chi and lost his Divine Nature, he still had the peak 'Cultivation Like a Stream' standard..."
"Logically speaking, with your Cultivation Like a Lamp not yet complete, there's absolutely no possibility of you killing Si Mubai."
The elder was astonished as he observed Li Che.
Li Che's fingers gripped the Thousand Spider Threads, his vigilance at its peak. His eyes, hidden behind the mask, narrowed: "It was just a sneak attack. There's nothing to be proud of."
"How could you sneak attack a Divine Nature Cultivator? Their perception is incredibly sharp. The moment you make a move, they can sense your actions from ten zhang away. How could you possibly sneak attack?"
The elder shook his head, but his heart was somewhat concerned.
The fact that Li Che could kill Si Mubai meant that his martial arts skills were worthy of praise throughout Thunderfall City.
Next, he wanted to find the Spirit Infants Sect's headquarters, and there might be an opportunity for cooperation.
"Young friend Li, this old man and Lu Chi are indeed from the Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin. We are Divine Nature Cultivators who have come down the mountain to select Spirit Infants. However, we descended early and entered the city ahead of schedule, avoiding the attention of the noble families and the City Lord."
Indeed, they were from the Divine Sect!
Li Che's heart tightened slightly, but he didn't relax.
The elder smiled, brushed off the rain from his clothes, and glanced at Li Che, who remained vigilant. "You don't need to be nervous. We Divine Nature Cultivators are not interested in your abilities. Your 'Concealment and Bone Hiding' technique is not bad, but in the eyes of Divine Nature Cultivators, it's not very tempting."
"Divine Nature techniques, Cultivation objects, Divine Nature weapons, and anything related to Divine Nature are what Divine Nature Cultivators pursue."
"Everything related to Divine Nature far surpasses martial arts, Qi, and Inner Strength."
"Allow me to introduce myself."
"This old man is Li Qingshan, a Divine Nature Cultivator from the Yunzhou Branch Sect of the Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin. This young man is my direct disciple, Lu Chi, with Cultivation Like a River, and he belongs to the inner circle of the Branch Sect."
Elder Li Qingshan spoke seriously, introducing himself to Li Che.
The Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin was truly a formidable force. Although Elder Li Qingshan was just from the Yunzhou Branch Sect, for the entire Thunderfall City, he could be considered a formidable figure!
"The Great Jing Dynasty has eleven paths, thirty-six states, and one hundred and twenty counties. The Yunzhou Branch Sect is responsible for the Yunzhou State, which is part of the Lingnan Circuit, and it is governed by the Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin."
"Thunderfall City belongs to the Golden Light Prefecture, which is located in the Yunzhou State and governed by the Lingnan Circuit. The Divine Sect of Heavenly Origin oversees this region."
Elder Li Qingshan provided Li Che with some geographical knowledge.
Li Che felt a sense of vastness and wildness wash over him.
"Xixi's talent is excellent and extremely suitable for cultivating the Wrathful Divinity lineage of our Heavenly Origin Divine Sect. Therefore, I've come to inquire if you would allow Xixi to join our Yunzhou Branch Sect..."
"With Xixi's talent, if she can forge her Divine Foundation before the age of eighteen, there's still hope for her to enter the main sect of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect."
Li Qingshan stroked his beard and smiled.
"Forging the Divine Foundation before eighteen?" Li Che's heart skipped a beat.
"Forging the Divine Foundation before eighteen is the most basic requirement for entering the main sect from a branch sect... Xixi has hope. I've examined her divine nature, and she's an exceptional Divine Child!"
"An exceptional Divine Child? Didn't the Xu family say she was a Superior Divine Child?"
"Those born with divine nature, accompanied by their innate divinity, are not the same as those who cultivate it later. Hence, they can be called Divine Children..."
Li Qingshan burst into laughter. "Our Heavenly Origin Sect's Divine Perception Technique can see through the origin. It's not something that can be compared to the experience and insight of divine nature cultivators in a small city."
"Young friend, are you willing to send Xixi to our Divine Sect?"
Li Qingshan asked again, and Lu Chi, sitting on the bed, blinked his big eyes curiously.
Li Che thought for a moment and asked, "Letting Xixi join the Divine Sect... it's not impossible, but I have a question."
"Ask."
"Does the Divine Sect allow accompanying cultivation?" I want to accompany Xixi in cultivating at the Divine Sect. Is that possible?"
Li Che was unwilling to let Xixi go to the Divine Sect alone. If he couldn't accompany her, he'd rather not let her go.
Xixi was too far away from him, and he felt no sense of security.
Upon hearing this, Li Qingshan was momentarily stunned, then he chuckled and shook his head. "Of course it's possible, and not just that... Although I came to Thunderstrike City a bit late this time, allowing the Spirit Infants Sect to wreak havoc, I still managed to preserve several excellent Divine Children."
"Xixi is one of them, and I've also selected a few from the major aristocratic families. There's also one more..."
As Li Qingshan spoke, the smile in his eyes grew more intense and fervent, and his gaze fell upon Li Che, who was as sturdy as a mountain, wearing a cute bull mask, and had activated the Dragon Elephant Vajra.
"It's you."
"A twenty-one-year-old Divine Child."
...
...
Time passed like sand between fingers, swiftly flowing.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Ever since Li Qingshan's revelation to Li Che, Li Che's mind had been buzzing.
He hadn't expected... Li Qingshan not only had his eyes on his daughter but also on him.
A twenty-one-year-old Divine Child?
This sounded strange, like a twenty-one-year-old virgin, not very impressive but highly insulting.
When Li Qingshan said that he had pure divine nature, Li Che understood that it was the Pure Heart Divine Fruit, and the divine nature he had absorbed had caught Li Qingshan's attention through his Divine Perception Technique.
Strictly speaking, the divine nature accumulated after the birth of the Pure Heart Divine Fruit was indeed very fresh, deserving the title of "Divine Child."
In other words, Li Qingshan wanted both Li Che and Xixi, asking them to enter the sect together for cultivation.
Li Che imagined himself cultivating with a group of kids who weren't even as tall as his knees in the same courtyard...
The whole situation seemed comically absurd.
Unknowingly, another half a year passed.
Since the Divine Foundation Battle, the Si family had fallen, becoming the target of division among the major aristocratic families. Of course, the Si family hadn't completely perished yet, but it had lost its status as an aristocratic family.
All the good things within the clan had been plundered, and the loss of the Divine Technique had directly caused the Si family to lose its foundation.
After the Si family's downfall, Thunderstrike City entered a period of tranquility.
However, the calmer the surface, the more intense the storm brewing beneath.
Lu Chi had moved in with Li Che, arranged by Li Qingshan to protect Xixi. Meanwhile, Li Qingshan was investigating the strange temple and the Spirit Infants Sect in the outer city.
He informed Li Che that the Spirit Infants Sect was causing the strange temple to expand and transform.
Therefore, he was secretly searching for the Spirit Infants Sect's headquarters and trying to suppress the temple deity within.
Regarding Li Che and Xixi's journey to the Divine Sect for cultivation, Li Qingshan said they had to wait until the Divine Sect officially recruited disciples, and they couldn't break the rules to enter earlier.
Li Che didn't mind this delay.
Days passed peacefully.
Time flew by, and seasons changed.
The cold wind blew, and the chill spread.
Unknowingly, another year of cold winter snow arrived.
Xixi turned three years old.
