Chapter 108: Accusation (7K, double-chapter minimum)
"Lin Wujing!"
A roar of fury rang out, followed by Li Qingzheng, who arrived as if teleporting in his snow-white robes, blocking the path before Li Hao.
The cold electricity currently shooting from his usually gentle eyes seemed to cause the temperature in the entire courtyard to plummet.
He did not address Lin Wujing by his Buddhist title, "Great Feng Sage Bodhisattva," but instead called him by his given name—a sign of extreme discourtesy! Lin Wujing, however, turned his head and looked at him coldly: "During the Li Clan's True Dragon competition, he actually went for the kill. If I hadn't intervened in time, Long Chan would likely be dead by now. Are you actually going to blame me?"
This statement left Li Qingzheng slightly choked. He was angry because the other party had interfered in the Li Clan's True Dragon selection without authorization, but if he were to cast blame now, wouldn't that imply he tacitly permitted Li Hao to kill Long Chan?
That, naturally, was impossible.
If Lin Wujing hadn't acted just now, he would have intervened himself.
With his Four Standing Realm cultivation, even if he only opened half an eye, he would have been in time to block it.
"This is my Li Clan's True Dragon competition. Hao'er has his own sense of propriety. I ask the Bodhisattva to conduct yourself with dignity!"
In the end, Li Qingzheng still managed to say something to regain some face. At the same time, these words were meant for the others present; he was making excuses for Li Hao.
In that instant just now, how could he not see that Li Hao had been moved by a murderous intent?
Having killed countless demons beyond the borders, his perception of killing intent was extremely sharp.
However, besides Li Hao, he had also sensed that Long Chan possessed murderous intent as well! The relationship between these two juniors was not as peaceful as that of other cousins, let alone compared to their fathers' generation, during the harmonious era of the Li Clan's Nine Sons.
Although they were blood relatives, there was ultimately a layer of distance between them.
Li Qingzheng could not help but sigh inwardly. This was not the first time such a thing had happened. In the Li Clan's thousand-year history, it was naturally unavoidable; even the imperial clan of that lineage had experienced bloody struggles, only they had been covered up and suppressed.
Precisely because of this, the Li Clan had tests of character, and universal love was an ancestral teaching.
"Hmph!"
Lin Wujing knew Li Qingzheng was being stubborn, but he let out a cold snort and said: "Long Chan's eyeball needs immediate treatment, otherwise, if it damages the brain, I fear he will become an imbecile. Is your Li Clan going to take care of this or not?!"
"Long Chan!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuerong was so frightened that her face turned pale. At this moment, this lady who had once been renowned for her beauty in the Liu Clan could no longer maintain her smiling facade; she rushed over, unleashing her Fifteen-Li Realm cultivation.
The wives of the Li Clan were basically all martial artists; there were very few weak ones. Moreover, the Li Clan possessed countless treasures and secret medicines, so even those with ordinary aptitude could be piled up to the Fifteen-Li Realm.
Because below the Heavenly Human Grandmaster Realm, one could rise straight up by relying on resources and bone quality! This was the early-stage acceleration effect brought about by the foundation of a major power.
Liu Yuerong rushed to Lin Wujing's side, and seeing her son with a chopstick stuck in his eye socket and blood gushing out, her heart ached so much that tears immediately fell.
Her body trembled; she wanted to touch him but dared not. Seeming to think of something, she turned her head abruptly and glared at Li Hao:
"You little bastard, he is your cousin, and you actually struck such a heavy, lethal blow!"
In the depths of Li Hao's eyes, there was only regret left—regret that he hadn't been able to kill the other party outright.
Hearing these words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but reveal a sneer. Cousin? You are my "kind" second mother, but what have you ever done? Up ahead, Chen Hefang looked at the sudden, shocking change, her face losing its color; the prayer beads she had used for years of chanting were nearly crushed in her grip.
The pain of losing her sixth son made her feel dizzy at the sight of a descendant's blood, but having managed the Li Clan for many years, she quickly regained her composure and spoke: "The hour is late. Since my Li Clan's True Dragon has been chosen, everyone, please return."
These words were polite, but everyone knew the old lady didn't want people staying to watch the spectacle.
This left many secretly regretful; with the two juniors being so fierce, the hidden grievances between them were likely quite interesting.
He Jianlan quickly stepped out and arranged for people to escort all the guests out of the mansion.
Li Tiangang's face was ugly, but this was not the time for him to berate Li Hao. Suppressing his rage and temper, he personally escorted Jian Wudao and Chu Jiuyue out of the courtyard.
The two of them also understood the awkwardness the Li Clan was currently facing and did not linger.
Although they were surprised by Li Hao's ruthless strike, they weren't overly shocked.
They were scions of great families, after all; there would always be grievances unknown to outsiders.
Moreover, it concerned the True Dragon competition, where tensions were high. The Li Clan's previous Nine Sons hadn't erupted into bloody combat primarily because Li Jiulang had been too brilliant, and being of the same mother, their relationship had been close.
Compared to Li Hao's ferocity, they were more shocked by the powerful strength Li Hao had displayed in that brief moment.
This had already far exceeded the Fifteen-Li Realm they had seen before.
The massive power Long Chan had erupted with at the critical moment—if it wasn't some secret technique, it had to be some external force.
That his master was the Buddha Lord made having such a trump card unsurprising, but they hadn't expected him to be crushed by Li Hao before he could even show it off, nearly being killed in the process.
This generation's Li Clan True Dragon could not be underestimated!
"That boy's Sword Dao actually reached such a level. How is that possible..."
Before leaving, Jian Wudao still took a look at the youth standing in the field. The shock in his heart had subsided, replaced by doubt.
Many years ago, that child's eyes had held no obsession for the sword; it was no different to him than looking at a tree branch.
With such a state of mind, how could he have practiced such a domineering and fierce sword intent?! "Quick, quick, save my son!"
As the courtyard full of guests dispersed, Liu Yuerong hurriedly said to Lin Wujing and the old lady.
Chen Hefang also knew there was no time to delay; she quickly led the way, letting Lin Wujing take Long Chan to the Green Lotus backyard, while ordering people to summon the family's divine physician.
Liu Yuerong followed, and the other wives, seeing this, also followed, wanting to see exactly how serious Long Chan's injuries were; saving him was the most critical thing right now.
After Li Tiangang sent Jian Wudao and the others away, he returned to the courtyard.
He strode toward Li Hao, glaring at him.
At this moment, there were no guests around. Li Tiangang glared at Li Hao and said:
"I haven't disciplined you, but you are too presumptuous!"
Li Hao was just about to tell him about the poison pill, but hearing this, he countered: "Didn't you hear how that woman just called me?"
"You!"
Li Tiangang was furious. He had naturally heard it, but he believed it was his second sister-in-law worrying for Long Chan's life, speaking without restraint out of hatred: "I'll go see how Long Chan is first, and I'll deal with you later!"
Having said this, he swept away like a gust of wind, sprinting over.
Since his own son had injured the other party so severely, he had to go over and take a look; otherwise, how could they continue to be relatives?
Li Qingzheng turned back and looked at Li Hao, his eyes complex: "Hao'er, why are you so impulsive?"
Li Hao, however, was expressionless, as if lost in silence. Hearing Li Qingzheng's words, he slowly squeezed out a trace of a smile: "Fifth Uncle, this is what that woman owes me."
Li Qingzheng was slightly startled, looking at him with confusion.
Li Hao did not elaborate, instead turning and walking toward the Green Lotus backyard. Now that things had reached this point, the events of that year should naturally be revealed.
Li Qingzheng looked at Li Hao's back, his eyes flickering. Having interacted with Li Hao over these years, he considered himself quite understanding of him; he cared nothing for fame or wealth. Just for the sake of a True Dragon struggle, the child had absolutely no reason to go for the kill.
Exactly what was the reason?
He took a deep breath, preparing to go to the backyard first, and incidentally check on Long Chan's injuries.
With a flicker of his figure, Li Qingzheng vanished.
In the courtyard, Li Mingguang, Li Sibei, and the other third-generation Li Clan members were all looking at Li Hao in shock.
Everything had changed too quickly; they hadn't reacted yet.
In the crowd, Li Yuanzhao was also standing there blankly with his mouth agape. From the "Hao Brother" he had always followed, he actually felt a sense of strangeness.
Suddenly, Li Mingguang's figure flickered, blocking Li Hao's path: "Where are you going?"
Li Mingguang's gaze was cold and sharp, his face filled with anger as he stared at Li Hao.
As the eldest brother among the Li Clan's third-generation cousins, he felt extremely shocked and furious at Li Hao's actions! Hadn't he and Li Sibei given up the True Dragon struggle precisely because they valued these two cousins? Seeing the angry appearance of this cousin, the emotions in Li Hao's heart had already been reined in. Toward the person before him, he held no ill will; on the contrary, the other party's previous performance had left him with a favorable impression.
"I'm going to see him."
Li Hao smiled.
"Don't be hypocritical; you struck that heavy blow on purpose!" Li Mingguang raged.
Li Hao's smile faded slightly. He looked at him and said: "That's right, it was on purpose."
"You!"
Li Mingguang hadn't expected Li Hao to dare admit it so easily. His pupils constricted in anger, and his whole body radiated a terrifying Three Imperishable aura.
However, he did not act, because as the inheritor of the Li Clan ancestors' heroic souls, attacking Li Hao would cause him to break his heart-oath.
"I thought your talent was peerless, and I even saw the style of Ninth Uncle in you. I didn't expect you to have such a character. It was in vain that His Majesty valued you so much..."
Li Mingguang gritted his teeth, furious beyond measure.
"Do you think that just because you've won the True Dragon position, you can act without restraint?"
Li Sibei also walked to her brother's side, standing shoulder to shoulder, her eyes staring coldly at Li Hao.
Li Hao looked at them, was silent for a moment, and said: "I have my own reasons. If you two want to know, just follow me to the backyard."
"What reason could possibly allow you to harm your own kin?!"
Li Mingguang said angrily.
"Mingguang Brother, perhaps, perhaps Hao Brother really has a reason?"
Li Yuanzhao said, approaching cautiously.
Hearing the little fatty's words, Li Hao looked at him, a warm current passing through his heart, and smiled at him.
Seeing Li Hao's smile, Li Yuanzhao immediately felt that sense of strangeness vanish; the familiar feeling had returned to Li Hao.
His heart settled slightly, feeling he had guessed right, so his courage grew a bit more. Just as he was about to speak again, he heard Li Sibei say coldly: "Shut up, you're still young, don't get involved in this!"
Li Yuanzhao opened his mouth slightly, but stammered, not knowing how to refute.
Li Wushuang, Li Yun, and the other siblings also walked over, their eyes looking at Li Hao with complexity.
Li Wushuang thought of the slap Li Hao had given her on the buttocks that day. While feeling a bit ashamed and annoyed, she also felt a bit of doubt.
Although Li Hao's strike that day had been extremely heavy—so much so that she hadn't dared to sit on a chair that day—she could feel that the other party was simply teaching her a lesson, with no killing intent, which was completely different from today.
She had offended Li Hao, but the other party had held no killing intent toward her, showing he was not a bloodthirsty person.
Or perhaps, as Cousin Li Mingguang said, Li Hao had exposed his fierce nature and was acting without restraint because he had already obtained the True Dragon seat by defeating Long Chan today?
Li Yun looked at Li Hao timidly. If his eldest sister hadn't been by his side, he wouldn't have dared to approach; he already had a shadow in his heart regarding Li Hao, and now it felt magnified.
"Hmph, my mother was right. His mother is from the Great Desolate Heaven; fierce nature is hard to change. Like mother, like son!"
Li Jiangying and Li Rumeng, the brother and sister, also walked over, looking at Li Hao with disdain.
Both were jealous of Li Hao taking the True Dragon seat. Li Rumeng even felt that if her father hadn't stopped her earlier, she could have participated, and it would have been livelier; perhaps she could have shown off as well.
Hearing the other party's words, Li Hao's eyes turned cold, and he simultaneously captured the information they had spoken: Great Desolate Heaven? Wasn't his mother from a small family? How could she be from the Great Desolate Heaven? Living in the Li Clan and chatting with Second Uncle, Fifth Uncle, and Old Feng since he was small, Li Hao had mastered many top-secret pieces of information, surpassing these third-generation brats.
And the Great Desolate Heaven was not too secret a matter.
Beyond the East Desolate Continent guarded by Emperor Da Yu, in the places the human race had never set foot, where demons ran rampant, was the Great Desolate Heaven.
It was said that the demons in the Great Desolate Heaven were far more cruel and terrifying than those around Emperor Da Yu.
Those demons around Emperor Da Yu were just weak races that couldn't survive in the Great Desolate Heaven and had been driven to the periphery.
And in the depths of the Great Desolate Heaven, ancient fierce beasts ran rampant, extremely terrifying; even Four Standing Realm cultivators were unwilling to easily set foot there.
To the people of this world, the Great Desolate Heaven was like the ocean in an age without technology—mysterious, dangerous, and vast. "You know about my mother?" Li Hao stared at the other party.
Li Rumeng raised an eyebrow: "What, didn't your father tell you? Oh, I forgot, you and your father haven't been together since you were small, and your father probably couldn't say it either; after all, she's a barbarian savage..."
*Slap. *
Li Hao abruptly swung a slap, and five bright red palm prints appeared on Li Rumeng's face, causing blood to spill from her face and a tooth to fly out.
"Li Hao!!"
Beside them, Li Jiangying regained his senses. Seeing his sister being hit, he glared at Li Hao in a rage, his soul-phase appearing above his head.
But the heroic soul he had inherited was not a Li Clan ancestor, but a Wang Clan heroic soul!
Therefore, if he attacked Li Hao, he wouldn't break his heart-oath.
Yet, under Li Hao's cold, piercing gaze, this surge of anger was forced back, and his body, poised to pounce, ground its teeth and came to a halt of its own accord.
Thinking of how this fierce person before him had nearly killed Long Chan in public—setting aside Long Chan's own status, the other party was also a personal disciple of the Boundless Buddha Lord, yet he still hadn't been put in Li Hao's eyes.
If he attacked, he wouldn't get any benefit either.
And at this moment, there were no family elders sitting in charge to back them up; they had all run to the Qinglian backyard.
"You!"
Li Mingguang saw Li Hao strike suddenly, caught off guard. Moreover, this slap from Li Hao was unexpectedly fast, seemingly faster than when he had attacked Long Chan. In his shock, he hadn't reacted.
But when he regained his senses, he was so angry his eyes turned red: "Do you really think I dare not attack you? If I had known this, I shouldn't have listened to my mother. I should have competed for this Li Clan True Dragon seat too!"
Li Hao, however, was in no mood, saying coldly: "If you want to compete, you have to be capable of competing. Don't make it sound like you yielded it to me!" Li Mingguang choked, speechless.
Li Hao stared coldly at Li Rumeng: "Insult my mother again, say it one more time, and I will make you regret it for the rest of your life!"
Seeing Li Hao's terrifying gaze, Li Rumeng, who had been spoiled since childhood, was actually frightened, covering her face in anger and rage.
Li Hao, however, couldn't be bothered to ask about the other party's mother anymore. The other party knowing this was likely heard from her mother, the Wang woman. He could just ask his father later; even if Li Tiangang wouldn't say, he could ask Fifth Uncle, Second Uncle—he would eventually get to the bottom of it.
The previous explanations were likely all lies to deceive him.
Thinking of this, Li Hao felt some anger in his heart. Why, as a son, did even outsiders know his mother was from the Great Desolate Heaven, while he didn't?! With cold eyes, he walked toward the Qinglian courtyard.
The other party wanted to heal Long Chan. Even if they succeeded, he would still bring up the poison pill matter and have him crippled in public.
He wanted to let that second mother watch with her own eyes as the son she had planned so deeply for was completely ruined!
Seeing the aura radiating from Li Hao, the crowd's expressions changed, and no one blocked him anymore.
They had originally come to question him, thinking Li Hao would explain and repent, but who would have thought the other party would just lay his cards on the table and stop pretending.
At this moment, they didn't know what else to say.
"Hao Brother..."
Bian Ruxue stood by the banquet table, staring blankly at that back, feeling very strange.
Whether it was Li Hao contradicting her master or his ruthless strike just now, neither was like the warm, gentle figure in her memory.
That figure had never taken anything to heart and had treated everyone with gentleness.
But why...
Watching Li Hao walk out of the courtyard, Ren Qianqian hurriedly followed, clutching the black sword box.
The young girl's little head was still a bit dazed, unable to distinguish the situation; everything had changed too abruptly, making her heart pound.
But the black sword box in her hand made her realize she was Li Hao's sword servant.
A sword servant should not leave her master's side.
In the Qinglian backyard.
The Li Clan's divine physician had been invited. He was an old man, also of Li Qingzheng's generation, but a collateral descendant with ordinary cultivation aptitude.
However, that lineage was a medical clan, and most of the descendants practiced medicine, passed down through generations. Although they were collateral, their status in the mansion was quite high.
At this moment, everyone was gathered around Long Chan and the divine physician.
Liu Yuerong clutched her handkerchief nervously, her palms covered in cold sweat, and sweat also broke out on her face, but she dared not make a sound to disturb them.
He Jianlan and the other wives stood by watching, their eyes filled with concern, no one speaking.
The quiet treatment finally ended.
With Lin Wujing's assistance and the divine medicine taken from the Li Clan's treasury, the blood from the pierced left eye was finally stanched, and the brain inside had not been damaged.
As for restoring the eyeball, Long Chan would need to cultivate to the Three Imperishable Realm himself to regenerate the limb and let the nerves inside the eyeball regrow.
Although the treatment process had been dangerous, the result was ultimately good. Once the youth's eyeball was bandaged, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The divine physician bowed and took his leave of Chen Hefang, not asking any more questions.
As the divine physician walked out of the courtyard, he happened to meet Li Hao, who was coming over. Li Hao asked: "Is he healed?"
Seeing Li Hao's attire, the old divine physician knew he was a direct-line young master of the Li Clan and dared not be negligent, thinking he had come to care about Long Chan, so he smiled: "The injury is temporarily stabilized, and the wound will be completely scabbed over in two days."
Li Hao nodded. That Boundless Mountain Bodhisattva had acted too quickly; he hadn't managed to strike too deeply, and he knew this injury was nothing to the latter.
Although an eyeball was ruined, hindering his vision, with the other party's aptitude, the probability of cultivating to the Three Imperishable Realm was extremely high, and there was still a possibility of regeneration in the future.
In the courtyard.
After Long Chan's wound healed, Liu Yuerong hurriedly asked with concern.
Does it hurt? Can you see clearly? Where else are you injured? A mother's pain and love were fully displayed, and all were true and sincere.
Li Tiangang stood to the side, his face ugly, feeling like he was on pins and needles.
Long Chan's body had calmed down, but the temporary stimulation of his major meridians had consumed a great deal of his body's energy; at this moment, his whole body felt exhausted, and his face appeared exceptionally pale.
He looked at his mother and said weakly: "Mother, I'm fine."
Hearing her son's words, Liu Yuerong's tears could no longer be stopped, falling in large drops.
But soon, she wiped them away rapidly with her handkerchief and turned her head abruptly to look at Li Tiangang.
"Li Tiangang!"
Liu Yuerong's face was full of grief and indignation. In the past, she had always called him the affectionate "Old Seven" or "Marquis," but now she called him by his full name, showing her inner rage: "A good son you've taught! You really know how to teach!"
"Wolfish ambition! It was in vain that I cared for him all these years; he's simply an ungrateful wretch!!"
The roar of this angry mother echoed in the courtyard, leaving everyone silent.
"Long Chan went up the mountain to cultivate at six and never returned to the mansion. I was the one who went up the mountain to visit him. They were cousins meeting for the first time, just the first time! Where did the grievance come from? How could he strike so heavily!"
"Isn't it just a True Dragon seat? If you, Li Tiangang, want it, I'll give it to your son. Why did you have to instigate him to bully my son!"
Li Tiangang's face was ugly, and he was speechless.
Although he had not instigated or taught him.
But, a father's fault is a father's fault! He could not avoid Li Hao's negligence; he could only bear it.
"Second Sister-in-law, I will definitely give you and Second Brother an explanation!" Li Tiangang said in a low voice, the anger in his eyes like a raging storm.
He Jianlan's face changed slightly: "Old Seven, Hao'er was just impulsive. Perhaps he had little experience in facing enemies and struck without restraint. You should be gentler..."
Liu Yuerong heard this, and before He Jianlan could finish, she looked at her with tear-filled eyes: "Eldest Sister-in-law, have I ever offended you? Could it be that my son nearly lost his life just because he was impulsive and struck by mistake?!"
He Jianlan's face changed slightly. Facing Liu Yuerong's tearful, angry gaze, she chose to retreat for the first time and did not answer.
"Eldest Sister-in-law!"
At this moment, Li Tiangang also spoke, his gaze terrifyingly gloomy: "That Hao'er has reached this point today is all my fault. It is because I was not by his side to discipline him that he received such indulgence from all of you!"
"You indulged him, shielded him, and cherished him—I understand!"
"But since it's inconvenient for you to discipline him, I will!"
Having said this, he turned and walked out of the courtyard.
At this moment, Li Hao also entered the courtyard.
The gazes of father and son collided at this moment.
"Unfilial son!!"
The anger in Li Tiangang's eyes surged instantly, and he roared: "Come over and kneel! Kowtow to your Second Aunt!"
Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly. From the misunderstandings of Li Mingguang and the others earlier, he knew others were waiting for an explanation from him.
He had come here for this as well.
He just hadn't expected this father to be so furious.
"Just have Second Aunt come out, and incidentally have Fifth Uncle, Grandmother, and the others come out to bear witness," Li Hao said expressionlessly.
Seeing him say this, Li Tiangang thought he had repented, and the rage on his face softened slightly.
There was no need for him to go inside to notify them; at this moment, the others had all arrived in the courtyard.
At the same time, Li Mingguang, Bian Ruxue, and the others who had followed behind also walked into the courtyard, standing behind Li Hao.
The courtyard was full of Li Clan wives and direct descendants.
Fifth Uncle Li Xuanli and Eighth Uncle Li Fenghua were among them, looking at Li Hao with complex eyes.
Toward this proud son of heaven of the Li Clan, they saw the shadow of Li Junye in him, so they felt a sense of closeness.
But Li Junye would never strike his own kin.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Li Hao looked at that mother and son. That second mother, who usually always smiled at him with false affection, now made no attempt to hide, her face full of anger and hatred.
But at this moment, no one felt that her anger and hatred were wrong.
Li Hao sneered slightly: "Second Mother, the evil you did back then, the fruit you reap today—is it delicious?"
Liu Yuerong's face full of hatred and anger froze, as if her heart had been pierced, and she trembled violently.
Everyone was stunned, unable to help but look at Liu Yuerong.
Liu Yuerong's face was full of anger: "I don't understand what you're saying. You injured Long Chan, harmed your clan brother, and you still want to quibble?!"
Li Hao couldn't be bothered to act with her anymore, sneering: "When I was a year and a half old, you took me to your courtyard and fed me poison, ruining my divine blood. Do you think you can forget this?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at Liu Yuerong.
Liu Yuerong's heart, however, was filled with horror, and a chill rose up. Especially looking at the angry gaze Li Hao cast, she felt as if her mind had gone blank.
She naturally remembered that matter; she even thought of it often at night.
But how could this child know? "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Although her mind was buzzing, Liu Yuerong only looked slightly dazed. Her years of management and meticulous thinking allowed her to recover instantly, and she said angrily: "You can't awaken divine blood—what does that have to do with me?"
Ever since Li Hao had revealed his cultivation, everyone had understood Li Hao's situation. Moreover, Li Tiangang had revealed in his early years that Li Hao likely had his divine blood, warning everyone to ensure they helped Li Hao step onto the path of cultivation.
But when they asked Li Hao, they learned that Li Hao hadn't awakened it.
However, everyone's first reaction was to think of Li Hao's mother, that woman who had walked out of the Great Desolate Heaven.
With the other party's peculiar bloodline merging with Li Tiangang's, it was highly possible that the divine blood had been suppressed, making Li Hao unable to awaken it.
And Li Hao's cultivation realm was so powerful, far exceeding top geniuses; it was highly likely that this was also due to that woman's bloodline relationship.
Everyone thought so; after all, in their understanding, only this was reasonable.
"You sought secret medicine from Boundless Mountain to ruin my divine blood to pave the way for your son. You were planning this more than ten years ago. Did you think no one would know?"
Li Hao looked coldly at the other party acting: "There is a saying: if you want people not to know, you must not do it yourself!"
Liu Yuerong's heart trembled, but on the surface, she remained angry, her thoughts spinning rapidly: "You think that just because you won the Li Clan True Dragon seat, you can make false accusations? You say these things—do you have evidence?!"
"That's right."
Beside them, Lin Wujing spoke, his voice cold: "Originally, this was your Divine General Mansion's family matter, and it was inconvenient for me to intervene, but since it concerns my Boundless Mountain, I have to say a word."
"My Boundless Mountain does not have this secret medicine you speak of at all. Young Master Li, you are now the True Dragon, although you haven't completed the inheritance ceremony, you must still be responsible for what you say!"
"Slandering my Boundless Mountain, slandering the Buddha Lord—even if it is the Divine General Mansion, you must give an explanation!"
Hearing his words, Li Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"What a Boundless Mountain, what a Bodhisattva! How much can you know about Boundless Mountain? Do you know every detail? Even today, you are backing this boy—is it possible that you were involved in the matter back then as well?!"
Lin Wujing's expression changed, his gaze staring coldly at Li Hao:
"Good, good, good! Worthy of being the Li Clan True Dragon, making accusations without evidence!"
Li Hao stopped smiling and said: "Since I dare to say it today, I naturally have a way to prove it!"
He looked at Liu Yuerong and sneered: "Second Mother, you thought I was still small and remembered nothing, but I tell you, I remember everything!"
These words made Liu Yuerong change color.
Li Hao, however, looked at the other wives, scanning them one by one:
"I remember when I was one, Ninth Mother embroidered a pouch for me!"
"I remember when I was one, I drank Fifth Mother's breast milk!"
Hearing this, Li Wushuang and the three siblings couldn't help but look at their mother in surprise.
Gao Qingqing was startled, and then her face turned bright red. She glared at Li Hao in shame and anger, but at the same time, she was secretly shocked. Could Li Hao really remember what happened when he was one? They all knew Li Hao was precocious; this wasn't impossible.
Li Hao listed the events that happened when he was one as if he were counting his family treasures.
Hearing Li Hao finish, everyone in the courtyard looked at each other.
These events were long ago; they even had no impression of some, but hearing Li Hao mention them now, they seemed to recall some things.
This child could actually remember things from when he was one! (End of chapter)
