Chapter 731: Big Brother and Second Sister

~9 min read 1,768 words

Facing the overly enthusiastic Li Li Jingtao, Li Luo felt somewhat awkward and tried to pull away from the other's arm, but the grip was too tight, so he could only give up, forcing a smile: "I am Li Luo. Greetings, Big Brother."

In terms of seniority, this Li Li Jingtao was indeed his Big Brother.

"Haha, no wonder you are Third Uncle's son; you are just as handsome as him. What a pity Third Uncle isn't my father, otherwise I wouldn't look like this." Li Li Jingtao said, enthusiastically patting Li Luo's shoulder.

Li Luo's smile nearly froze. If you say that, won't your father beat you to death?

"Li Li Jingtao, can you restrain yourself?" At that moment, a somewhat cold voice from the girl sounded.

Li Li Fengyi, with her willow-leaf brows slightly furrowed, looked at the enthusiastic and excited Li Li Jingtao. This fellow was behaving terribly; who greets someone by immediately patting their shoulder and hugging them? He had lost all dignity.

Hearing Li Li Fengyi's rebuke, Li Li Jingtao quickly withdrew his hand with a sheepish look. It seemed that although he was the Big Brother in terms of seniority, he was somewhat afraid of this fierce and domineering Second Sister.

"Li Fengyi, you have been waiting here longer than me. Aren't you the one who admires Third Uncle the most?" Li Li Jingtao muttered.

Li Li Fengyi gave Li Li Jingtao a fierce glare and, gritting her silver teeth, said: "Shut up. I admire Third Uncle, not his son!" After speaking, she ignored Li Li Jingtao, fixed her gaze on Li Luo, walked forward, sized him up with two glances, and said in a flat tone: "You do have a bit of Third Uncle's style. I am Li Li Fengyi. In terms of seniority, you must call me"

"Second Sister."

Li Luo smiled and said: "Li Luo greets Second Sister." Looking at the handsome youth before her who remained calm and composed, showing not the slightest panic or anxiety despite coming from the remote Outer Shenzhou to the Dragon Tooth Pulse, a hint of admiration flashed in Li Li Fengyi's eyes. Although she did not yet know the youth's

talent or strength, this composure and attitude were indeed worthy of Third Uncle's child.

Moreover, the key point was that he was indeed good-looking. Li Li Fengyi had seen many young heroes in the Tianyuan Shenzhou, but in terms of appearance, her little brother was definitely among the elite.

Clearly, Li Luo had perfectly inherited his parents' genetic traits for looks. Hearing such a good-looking person call her Second Sister, Li Li Fengyi could not help but feel a sense of pleasure and comfort in her heart. Having always seen Li Li Jingtao's ordinary face, she was thoroughly tired of it. Now she finally had a

little brother; could she bully him at will in the future?

Next time she met those little bitches from the other four pulses, as long as she brought this little brother out, they would probably be so envious that their drool would flow down!

"Little brother, you must be quite tired from the journey, but Grandfather and my father are still waiting for you, so you must hold on a little longer. However, you don't need to be nervous; everyone is looking forward to your return home," Li Li Fengyi said.

Li Luo nodded with a smile.

"Come, little brother, Big Brother will take you up." Li Li Jingtao enthusiastically pulled Li Luo's arm and led him toward the stone stairs in front of the stone platform. Li Li Fengyi swept her gaze around and, addressing the many onlookers nearby, scolded: "Did you all see? This is my Third Uncle's child. His name is Li Luo, and from now on he is one of us in the Dragon Tooth Pulse. In the future, whoever dares to"

"look down on him just because he comes from the Outer Shenzhou, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Upon hearing these words, some laughter arose from the surroundings. The many gazes scrutinizing Li Luo were withdrawn, and they gradually dispersed, though some murmurs could still be faintly heard.

"Is that the child of Third Master?"

"He is indeed good-looking and has Third Master's style."

"What's the use of being good-looking? We aren't here for a beauty contest. Everything depends on one's talent and strength. However, I heard that the Outer Shenzhou lacks resources and cultivation is slow, so I think this Li Luo probably won't be outstanding either."

"That remains to be seen..." "Just wait. There will always be a chance to see clearly later. After all, the Old Master has said that in our Dragon Tooth Pulse, everything must be fought for by oneself. If he is mediocre, even if he is Third Master's child, it won't mean"

"anything."

"..."

Li Li Fengyi looked at Li Luo and said: "Little brother, there are too many people in the Dragon Tooth Pulse. If anyone bullies you, just tell me."

Li Luo nodded with a smile and said: "Thank you, Second Sister, but I have a small suggestion."

"Speak."

"You can call me Li Luo, or Xiao Luo? The title 'Little Brother' doesn't sound very good."

Li Li Fengyi nodded and said: "Okay, Little Brother. Do you have any other suggestions? Little Brother."

Li Luo: "..."

"No more." Finally, he shook his head and followed Li Li Jingtao up the stone stairs.

Li Li Fengyi fell a step behind, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned. At this moment, Li Li Rouyun also walked over and walked beside her, smiling lightly: "How is it?" Li Li Fengyi took Li Li Rouyun's arm and said in a voice only the two could hear: "He looks quite good. Just his appearance makes people like him. I hope his talent is also good, so that even if he wasted some"

"time in the Outer Shenzhou, he should still be able to catch up." Li Li Rouyun thought of Li Luo's Three Phases and smiled inwardly. A Three Phase is completely inferior to a Nine Affinity Rank, and even in the Inner Shenzhou, a Three Phase is considered quite rare, so Li Luo's talent is beyond doubt.

However, in terms of level, he is indeed a bit behind. After all, people like Li Li Jingtao and Li Li Fengyi, although only about a year older than Li Luo, are already in the Fiery Body Realm. But this is mainly due to the age difference. At the same age as Li Luo, Li Li Rouyun remembered that Li Li Jingtao and Li Li Fengyi had only just entered the Fiery Palace Realm. Comparing them like this actually makes Li Luo seem quite extraordinary.

After all, living in a place like the Outer Shenzhou, the cultivation resources he possessed were completely incomparable to those of the latter two. Yet even so, he did not fall behind too much, showing that his own talent is also extremely extraordinary. Of course, as cultivation gradually advances, the so-called talent becomes broader and cannot be determined solely by Affinity Rank, especially with the emergence of the "Sealing Marquis Technique." At this point, the power it brings

is not much weaker than that of a high Affinity Rank. This can be seen from Lan Lan in the Holy Cup Battle. His own Affinity Rank was not high, yet he was able to overpower high-Affinity prodigies like Gong Gong Shenjun and the Long Princess. What he relied on was the one

"Bright King Three Bows" Sealing Marquis Technique he had cultivated.

Li Luo was enthusiastically pulled by Li Li Jingtao all the way up the stone stairs. This fake Big Brother kept chattering on, saying things like how hard it had been for so many years. Hearing the buzzing sound in his ears, Li Luo felt somewhat helpless. This fake Big Brother clearly gave an impression of laziness, yet why could he talk so much... However, the enthusiasm he showed was quite

sincere and did not give Li Luo a sense of pretense.

Clearly, Li Li Jingtao held no hostility toward him.

Li Li Fengyi was the same. In their brief contact earlier, although she was somewhat curious and scrutinizing toward him, there was more of a sense of goodwill.

This made Li Luo begin to believe what Li Li Rouyun had told him before; the attitude of those two Uncles toward him should be quite good.

This made Li Luo secretly sigh with relief, because he came to the Dragon Tooth Pulse to cultivate, not to engage in some boring family soap opera struggles.

Walking along the stone stairs, after about a few minutes, they finally reached the top, and then Li Luo saw an ancient pavilion like an ancestral hall appear ahead. The ancestral hall was surrounded by water on three sides, with a bluestone path and clusters of green shade in front.

Li Luo's group arrived in front of this ancestral hall, and then Li Li Rouyun stepped forward and respectfully said inside: "Old Master, I have brought back the Tai Xue Bloodline."

"Come in." From inside the ancestral hall came the voice of an old man. That voice seemed to carry a steadiness like a mountain, like an old dragon coiled at the mountain peak, breathing in wind and clouds.

Li Li Rouyun pushed the great door open directly, and light extended in through the crack.

Li Luo's gaze followed, projecting inside. The interior of the ancestral hall was quite spacious, and at this moment there were many figures within. Figures with extraordinary auras sat there, and Li Luo's gaze immediately turned to the main seat of the ancestral hall. Then he saw that there,

an old man in gray clothes with a vigorous spirit opened his eyes.

The old man's gaze also turned at this moment to the youth standing at the door, bathed in sunlight. The youth's body was tall and slender, and his face appeared somewhat youthful. However, on this face, the old man saw a familiar shadow. In that instant, even with his strength, he experienced a momentary daze, and distant memories

stirred at this time. He seemed to remember Li Taixuan back when he was still a youth, standing at the door just like this, showing him a flying, brilliant smile full of youthful energy, then waving his hand and calling him "Old Man" in a playfully unconcerned manner.

"."

At this moment, the old man could not help but stand up, and a murmur came from his mouth. "Taixuan... you have finally returned."
