Chapter 169 – Do you know Li Changqing?


“Why are so many people helping this Qinglian Sword Sovereign?

Didn’t this Qinglian Sword Sovereign just rise to prominence not long ago?

Moreover, he had a conflict with the North Cold Country before, causing a ruckus there, and even fought with Zhao Beiming. How come even Zhang Yuan from the North Cold Country is helping him?

Even the proud Yuan Wudi is speaking up for the Qinglian Sword Sovereign.

His Guanglan Palace is indeed impressive.

But no matter how impressive, he wouldn’t dare to offend so many sects in the Eastern Desolate Land, would he?

At this moment, everyone’s gaze at him was as if they wanted to eat him alive.

This made He Juming feel a sense of dread in his heart.

If all these sects were to attack Guanglan Palace, even Guangzu would have to take it seriously. Moreover, Guangzu also likes the little girl Lu Shiran. Under pressure, he might really hand him over and make him the scapegoat.

“Do you think I’m enough?” Li Changqing stared at He Juming and asked.

“This…”

He Juming swallowed hard, not knowing what to say for a moment.

He looked at Lu Shiran beside him, not expecting that after Lu Hanyan was gone, there would be a Qinglian Sword Sovereign protecting this little girl.

Moreover, the identity of this Qinglian Sword Sovereign is unknown, but all the sects are speaking for him. This is really unthinkable.

He couldn’t figure out why, even if he pulled out all his hair.

“Qinglian Sword Sovereign.”

At this moment, Lin Qingyi lazily said, “If you really need help, you can ask me. Our Tianhai City also owes you a big favor. Guangzu should still give us some face.”

Upon hearing this, He Juming’s face changed drastically.

Lin Qingyi has spoken?

This matter has taken a turn for the worse.

Lin Qingyi represents Tianhai City, and Tianhai City represents the Lord of the Cangyuan Realm!

This matter has really blown up.

“Thank you, but it’s not necessary.” Li Changqing shook his head.

“Rest assured, Qinglian Sword Sovereign. I will protect Lu Shiran in Guanglan Palace in the future and won’t let her be bullied. I will treat her the same way Lu Hanyan treated her.” At this moment, He Juming really backed down.

He had to back down.

Being threatened by so many big shots, even if he backed down, it wouldn’t be a disgrace!

Lu Shiran also looked at Li Changqing in disbelief. In fact, she didn’t quite understand why the Qinglian Sword Sovereign would help her so much.

This made Lu Shiran feel a bit of warmth after Lu Hanyan’s death.

“Lu Shiran.” Li Changqing looked at Lu Shiran, “Take back your things. That thing is yours from now on, and no one can take it away.”

Lu Shiran nodded, walked up to Han Ning, and was about to snatch the painting from Han Ning’s hand.

Han Ning was so angry that her teeth itched. She looked at Lu Shiran with murderous eyes, but Lu Shiran ignored her.

She would not give her master’s painting to anyone else.

She directly snatched the scroll back.

When the Qinglian Sword Sovereign spoke, Han Ning didn’t dare to say anything. She just envied the little bitch in front of her even more. Why was she always so lucky?

“Li Hengsheng.” Li Changqing called out to Li Hengsheng.

“Senior Qinglian Sword Sovereign, what can I do for you?” Li Hengsheng quickly responded respectfully. At this moment, in Li Hengsheng’s heart, the Qinglian Sword Sovereign was his life idol!

Without a doubt!

So no matter what the Qinglian Sword Sovereign ordered, Li Hengsheng would do it without hesitation.

“Your wife was slapped. You can’t just pretend nothing happened, right?” Li Changqing said leisurely.

“Huh?” Li Hengsheng was taken aback, and quickly explained, “Senior Qinglian Sword Sovereign, she is not my…”

“A man should take responsibility.” Li Changqing hummed, “You should understand the principle of being soft when taking someone’s hand and short when eating someone’s mouth.”

“Uh, yes.” Li Hengsheng immediately wilted.

Li Changqing was clearly telling Li Hengsheng that even if she is not your wife, you have eaten her Seven Treasures Crystal Pill, you should make some effort, right?

Li Hengsheng turned around, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he walked towards Han Ning.

Han Ning’s pupils shrank, and the innate momentum instantly crushed down. She looked at Li Hengsheng arrogantly, “What do you want to do, you little brat?”

“Whatever you did to Lu Shiran, I will do to you.” Li Hengsheng also said calmly.

“You dare!” Han Ning was furious.

“Don’t worry.” At this moment, Yu Fengxian, who was watching the excitement from a distance, said, “Kid, just do it. If this little girl dares to move, Uncle Yu will help you cripple her on the spot.”

Upon hearing this, Han Ning’s face changed drastically.

She quickly looked at He Juming for help, but He Juming just glanced to the side, as if to say, you’re on your own.

Li Hengsheng looked at Yu Fengxian in surprise. Where did this Uncle Yu come from?

Although Yu Fengxian is a rough man, he is not stupid. He can see that the Qinglian Sword Sovereign has been taking care of Li Hengsheng these days.

So naturally, he is willing to establish a friendly relationship with Li Hengsheng and get closer to the Qinglian Sword Sovereign.

Moreover, he could also see that Li Hengsheng’s status in the Dao Mountain Ancient Land was not ordinary. Even Xue Qianbai was intentionally or unintentionally taking care of this kid.

Yu Fengxian certainly didn’t mind thickening his face and calling himself Uncle Yu.

Who knows if this kid will become a dragon among men in the future? After all, he has the potential. He was the first in the Ghost Devil trial, worth investing in.

So Yu Fengxian directly expressed his goodwill to Li Hengsheng at this time.

“Slap!”

Li Hengsheng raised his hand and slapped it out fiercely!

This slap was not simple. The momentum of the Overlord Immortal Spear technique was running in his body, making this slap extremely explosive!Han Ning originally thought that Li Hengsheng was just a little guy in the postnatal perfection realm, how much strength could he have? To her, it was like being slapped in the face by an eight-year-old child. She, a dignified Prenatal Realm cultivator, was afraid of him?

However, when the slap landed on her face, Han Ning was directly slapped away by Li Hengsheng.

She flew more than twenty meters and fell directly to the ground, making a fool of herself. This left Han Ning completely dumbfounded.

This was an eight-year-old?

“Huh.” After slapping her, Li Hengsheng even blew on his palm.

The others looked at Li Hengsheng with strange expressions.

This kid was really ruthless!

They could all feel the explosive power within Li Hengsheng when he made his move.

“So the Overlord Immortal Spear technique can be used like this.” Li Jinsong was also enlightened.

“You!”

Han Ning got up, almost unable to control her urge to kill Li Hengsheng.

But she knew that if she acted rashly, she would definitely be the one to die.

There were so many powerful people present, all backing Li Hengsheng.

In the end, Han Ning could only grit her teeth and stand up, silently returning to He Juming’s side, no longer looking at Li Hengsheng. For her, staying here for even a second was unbearable.

She, a dignified Prenatal Realm cultivator, was slapped by a postnatal perfection realm brat, it was utterly humiliating!

“Since there’s nothing more to do here, and the excitement is over, let’s take our leave.” Yu Fengxian said with a smile, “Li Hengsheng, you’re welcome to visit Uncle Yu when you have the chance.”

“Uh, thank you, Uncle Yu.” Li Hengsheng quickly responded with a fist salute.

What kind of Uncle Yu, but since the other party said so, Li Hengsheng naturally couldn’t refuse his kindness.

The others also took their leave one after another.

“Let’s go too.” At this time, He Juming looked at Lu Shiran and Han Ning and said.

Han Ning glared at Li Hengsheng fiercely, her eyes filled with threat, but Li Hengsheng didn’t care at all.

“Husband, I’m leaving.” Lu Shiran came to Li Hengsheng and said.

“Ah, go ahead.” Li Hengsheng was already tired of talking, this stupid woman wouldn’t listen, so let her go, let her call whatever she wanted.

“When I return to Guanglan Palace, I will write to you.” Lu Shiran’s expression finally softened. Since Lu Hanyan’s death, her look at Li Hengsheng had changed.

She remembered what Lu Hanyan once said, that your lover is the one who can accompany you for a lifetime, and everyone else is just a passerby in life.

Lu Shiran truly felt from the bottom of her heart that Li Hengsheng was the only family she had in this world.

He was the only warmth in this world for her.

So when it was time to leave, Lu Shiran felt a bit reluctant.

“Alright.” Li Hengsheng knew that Lu Shiran’s days back in Guanglan Palace might not be easy. She had suffered for so many years, and just when things were looking up, her master died.

Such a contrast was indeed a bit cruel for a teenage girl to bear.

Lu Shiran left with He Juming and the others.

Li Changqing watched Lu Shiran’s departing figure. He didn’t know what Li Hengsheng was thinking, but he had accepted this daughter-in-law.

Although she was a bit abnormal and silly, it was normal considering her rootless and drifting childhood.

When Lu Shiran gave the precious Seven Treasures Crystal Pill to Li Hengsheng, Li Changqing felt that this girl was good, and his son was so outstanding.

In the Cangyuan Realm, there was no law that said a man could only marry one wife, right?

Hehe.

Li Changqing had one regret from his previous life.

He didn’t have a grandchild.

His son was such a jerk that no girl wanted to be with him. Even if there was a girl willing to be with his son, Li Changqing would feel it was too cruel for the girl.

But this life would definitely be different, and not just one grandchild. Let Lu Shiran have two, and then let Lu Qiaoqiao have two as well.

Holding his grandchildren every day, playing with the dog, what a wonderful life.

Li Hengsheng didn’t even know that while he was still worrying about the Seven Treasures Crystal Pill, Li Changqing was already considering how many grandchildren to have.

In the end, the Dao Mountain Ancient Land and Zhanhe Residence’s Black Crow also arrived.

Someone from the Medical King Valley came to pick them up. Mu Qingge glanced at Li Changqing. She always had a feeling that this mysterious Qinglian Sword Sovereign was somewhat similar to Li Changqing.

But she couldn’t be sure.

The wooden carving he had was a treasure that only Li Changqing could bring out.

But whether it was or not, Mu Qingge didn’t ask, because if too many people knew about this, it would be bad.

Mu Qingge also knew that when she returned to the Medical King Valley, the situation there was still uncertain.

Yan Zhentao of the Medical King Valley was a member of the Longevity Sect, and this matter had to be explained to everyone.

Especially Guanglan Palace.

After all, Lu Hanyan was killed by Yan Zhentao.

This matter wouldn’t end so simply, Guanglan Palace would definitely seek justice.

Everyone said their goodbyes and left, marking the end of the Ghost Devil trial.

Mu Qingge also specifically came to say goodbye to Li Hengsheng, which surprised him. He didn’t expect Sister Qingge to have such a good personality.

“Senior Qinglian Sword Sovereign, I bid you farewell. When I return to Changting Town, I will have the opportunity to visit you again.” Li Hengsheng bowed to Li Changqing.

Li Changqing nodded, then took the disciples of Zhanhe Residence and left.

When they came, there were three elders from Zhanhe Residence, but when they returned, only one was left. One mysteriously disappeared, but was probably killed by the Longevity Sect. The other was killed by a powerful member of the Ghost Clan during the final battle.

Such a result could be said to be very heavy.

Just as the Black Crow of Zhanhe Residence took off, a figure jumped up and came to Li Changqing’s side. It was Lin Qingyi.Li Changqing glanced at Lin Qingyi and then asked, “Mr. Lin, are you also planning to return to Zhanzhou with us?”

“When there were many people around earlier, it wasn’t convenient to discuss this with you.” Lin Qingyi lazily sat down and then said, “As I mentioned before, this time, Tianhai City owes you a favor. You can make any request, and I can discuss it with the Lord of the Realm when we return.”

“Anything?” Li Changqing asked.

“Almost.” Lin Qingyi said, “After all, you have solved a big problem this time and even contributed two precious Buddha’s Treasures. So, we will seriously consider your request, as long as you don’t ask to take the position of the Lord of the Cangyuan Realm.”

“Alright.”

Li Changqing had no interest in the position of the Lord of the Cangyuan Realm. He whispered a few words into Lin Qingyi’s ear.

Lin Qingyi was taken aback and looked at Li Changqing in surprise.

“Is it possible?” Li Changqing asked.

“No problem.” Lin Qingyi said, “Alright, now that we’ve settled this matter, I have something else to ask the Qinglian Sword Sovereign.”

“What do you want to ask?” Li Changqing asked curiously.

“It’s nothing important, I just want to inquire about a person.” Lin Qingyi looked forward, his hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes particularly bright, “I want to ask if you know a man named Li Changqing.”

Hearing Lin Qingyi mention his own name, Li Changqing was slightly silent, then nodded, “I know him.”

“Can you tell me about him?” Lin Qingyi asked.

“What do you want to know?” Li Changqing felt that something was off about Lin Qingyi. Why did he suddenly want to inquire about him?

Li Changqing had always been a transparent character, there shouldn’t be anything that would attract the attention of someone like Lin Qingyi, right?

“Nothing much, I just heard that he moved to Changting Town more than a decade ago with a newborn son. I am investigating some matters and wanted to inquire about these two. Since you know them, I thought I’d ask you.”

“Do you know where Li Changqing lived before he moved to Changting Town?” Lin Qingyi turned his head and asked.

“I don’t know.” Li Changqing shook his head.

He really didn’t know.

Not only did Lin Qingyi want to know this, but he also wanted to know.

After he crossed over, Li Changqing had already died. He had revived using Li Changqing’s body, but he didn’t have any of the original host’s memories.

Everything related to the original host was learned through some pitifully scarce information at home.

Where did he live before?

Where did he come from?

Who was his wife?

He knew nothing.

“Really don’t know?” Lin Qingyi smiled.

“I really don’t know! I can swear.” Li Changqing said firmly.

“Well then.” Lin Qingyi didn’t know whether to believe him or not, he just said, “Since you don’t know, let it be. I was just asking casually.”

“Can I ask what you are investigating about Li Changqing?”

Li Changqing was more concerned about this question at the moment. He should have been keeping a low profile all along, there shouldn’t be anything that would attract the attention of the people from Tianhai City.

If it was the identity of the Qinglian Sword Sovereign that attracted attention, it would be understandable, but he couldn’t understand why Li Changqing was noticed.

So he thought about probing Lin Qingyi to see if he could find out anything.

“Are you curious?” Lin Qingyi counter-asked.

“I guess so. After all, I know Li Changqing. I’m curious about what happened to him. If he really got into big trouble, I’d better stay away from him.” Li Changqing said with a wry smile.

“That’s not the case.”

Lin Qingyi sighed lightly, “Do you know the Yue family?”

“I’ve heard of them.”

“I heard that the Yue family is one of the strongest families in the Cangyuan Realm, and they should be under the jurisdiction of Tianhai City, belonging to the Lord of the Cangyuan Realm.” Li Changqing responded.

“The Yue family once had a genius named Yue Hanjun.” Lin Qingyi said.

Yue Hanjun again?

Li Changqing frowned. Li Jinsong had asked him this question before, asking if he knew Yue Hanjun.

He wasn’t sure if the original host knew him, but he definitely didn’t.

“Yue Hanjun stole a treasure from Tianhai City. Although Yue Hanjun was caught later, the treasure was not found on him. Later, the Lord of the Realm used various means to deduce that the treasure should have been taken to the Eastern Desolate Land.”

“There are many other things that I won’t go into detail with you.”

“In short, I investigated up to this point, and I just feel that this Li Changqing is a bit suspicious.”

“Really?” Li Changqing felt wronged.

What treasure?

After he arrived, he had turned the entire Changqing Art Studio upside down. He was so hungry at the time that he couldn’t even find a sweet potato, let alone a treasure!

Even if there really was a treasure, it must have been pawned by the previous Li Changqing for painting paper.

“Who knows, the investigation is still ongoing.” Lin Qingyi said lazily.

“Alright, since you don’t know about Li Changqing’s background, it makes me even more curious. It further proves that he is problematic.” Lin Qingyi stood up, “I’ll go first. When I come to Zhanzhou next time, remember that you promised to treat me to chicken, a chicken that tastes better than the one from Chicken Plucking.”

After saying that, Lin Qingyi jumped off the black crow and flew away.

“Ah.”

“Another troublesome person has appeared.” Li Changqing couldn’t help but think of what Xue Qianbai had told him before, that Lin Qingyi was a troublesome person.

Now he finally understood.

What does the theft by Yue Hanjun have to do with him?

Just because he moved to Changting Town more than a decade ago?

Isn’t that a bit far-fetched?

And that Lord of the Cangyuan Realm, he’s so awesome, why doesn’t he go and tell fortunes?

Li Changqing decided to return to Changqing Art Studio and rummage through it again. If there really were treasures, he would quickly take them out and sell them.

To avoid unnecessary complications in the long run.

Here, I would like to address some of the questions raised by previous readers.

Some have accused me of promoting Buddhism and suppressing Taoism. I would like to clarify this. While I do write more about Buddhism, where does the idea of suppressing Taoism come from?

Personally, I have a high regard for Taoism, and I am indifferent to Buddhism. But the reason why I write the book this way is mainly for readers of different age groups, just to enhance their sense of immersion.

Because the TV dramas we have watched, some of the more famous ones like “Journey to the West” and “Legend of the White Snake”, feature characters like the Buddha, Sun Wukong, and Fahai, most of whom are Buddhists. There are also many Buddhist stories, and we are familiar with the plots, such as the Great Mighty Dragon, the Havoc in Heaven, and so on. The treasures I depict, like the Five Finger Mountain, are all well-known things, familiar to people of all ages.

On the other hand, if you ask me about the stories of the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord or the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, I might not be able to tell you much. There is no issue of favoring Buddhism or Taoism, it’s just about starting from a sense of immersion and familiarity.

So, there’s no need to fuss over this matter.

Some people die, but they are not completely dead…
