"Thinking back, this kid was tricked out of all his resources by Kuangren and the others. I even thought he would turn out like Li Yaotie. The path of a person's growth is truly incredible."
Li Changsheng and Li Changyao had already infiltrated the Eternal Sun Prefecture Li family. The kid had even prepared bloodline and identity proof... There were even people near the location of that small family [they eliminated] who could prove the two of them were mbers of the Eternal Sun Prefecture Li family.
Seeing the two successfully 'acknowledge their ancestors and return to the clan', Li Wei deeply felt that Li Changsheng's thods were extraordinary. One could only say he was worthy of being a 'good child' carrying so of Feng Qingyang's 'genes'.
In the following period, Li Wei also followed the two of them, looking around Eternal Sun Prefecture for a bit.
The Eternal Sun Prefecture Li family resided within the central prefectural capital city of Eternal Sun Prefecture. Making a true comparison, it was no wonder everyone said the Azure Cloud region was a barbaric land.
The Azure Dynasty had eighteen prefectures in total, each governing a varying number of seven to twelve regions. Eternal Sun Prefecture originally governed eight regions. Now, three of them had been ceded to the Wu Clan, leaving only five regions. However, the impact on Eternal Sun Prefecture itself wasn't significant.
The remaining five regions surrounding the prefectural capital are known as the 'Spirit-Dragon-Blessed Southern Riverlands'. Since ancient tis, Eternal Sun Prefecture has had nurous secret realms and ancient ruins. There are even many places with explicit regulations stating one must not wantonly exploit spirit veins or randomly harvest from spirit mountains; what they emphasize is sustainable developnt.
They also place great importance on discussing morality; before fighting, they must first argue about who is right and who is wrong. This has also led to many literary cultivators and music cultivators in Eternal Sun Prefecture. Academies and private schools can be seen everywhere, with the clear sound of reading aloud and the music filling the air.
The border regions are different... Anyway, in Li Wei's mory, in a place like Azure Cloud region, who cares about sustainable developnt? Snatch it first, talk later. Who talks about reasoning? Winning is the reason. As for literary cultivators...
Nowadays, the most 'cultured' place in the Azure Cloud region is rit City. In Li Tianniu's branch of the Li family, there's a child of the Kuang generation nad 'Li Kuangru', who also imitates Li Yaowen in cultivating the literary path. But the literary path he cultivates consists entirely of killing techniques... The first introductory lesson involves going to the border with the class to personally kill a Wu Clan mber before anything else.
There were music cultivators too; right now, that one was racking his brains trying to dig up the ancestral graves of the Clear Wind Sect to avenge Li Yaozu.
Thinking about it now, the Azure Cloud region's poverty wasn't without reason. Perhaps Feng Qingyang's idea back then of destruction before reconstruction was actually correct. The key point was that over a hundred thousand years had passed, yet the sects of Azure Cloud region still held onto those kinds of extrely barbaric concepts.
"When can our Azure Cloud region have such prosperity?"
Li Changsheng was currently sitting in the highest place of the Eternal Sun Prefecture Li residence, looking out with Li Changyao at the magnificent scenery of Eternal Sun Prefecture. Opportunities were everywhere here, peaceful and happy; the common people lived and worked in contentnt, making him endlessly envious.
Li Changyao pursed her lips. "Brother, I can't really say if it's good or bad. Anyway, in my opinion, they're all a bunch of spineless cowards. We've stayed here for two months, and you absolutely cannot see the slightest bit of courage in the people here. The Eternal Sun Prefecture Li family is the sa; their younger generation sches against each other for the position of family head. It would be better to just have a real fight. I reckon if the Wu Clan attacked here, they would all run away."
"You can't have it both ways." Li Changsheng looked again at the prosperous scene and smiled, "Senior Star [Sword Saint] should have arrived from Azure Cloud region by now. Next, our plan must also begin step by step."
This Eternal Sun Prefecture Li family wasn't large, having only existed for about four hundred years. The family descendants were distributed among branch families established in all directions. Their ancestor was only at the early Nascent Soul stage, with twenty-sothing elders. Every hundred years, the family's younger generation engaged in internal strife for the position of family head; it was all internal friction.
Soon, the two siblings t the Star Sword Saint within the Li residence, disguised as a stableman.
"Greetings, Senior Star."
Actually, the ones carrying out the mission in Eternal Sun Prefecture this ti were only Li Tianyi, Li Tianqi, and Li Kuanghua. The rest were children from Li Tianniu's generation, about forty people having co. As for the other mbers of the Li family, they were either too renowned—presumably, they would be recognized imdiately if they used any spiritual power outside—making it difficult for them to operate freely.
The Star Sword Saint's presence here was simply because Li Yaozu had been seriously injured in front of him. This fellow had felt guilty for almost three years, clamoring every day that his 'elder brother-in-law' had been injured in his presence, causing him to lose face greatly. He insisted on coming to help Li Yaozu get revenge.
"Father-in-law told that on this trip, I am to listen to your commands. Just tell if you have any instructions. Whoever you want killed, just give the word."
The Star Sword Saint smiled at Li Changsheng, then gazed at the bustling street outside the back door, his eyes becoming vacant. "It truly is a good place. It's just a pity Yaowen isn't here."
"Without her smile, my heart feels no flutter."
"..."
Li Changsheng and Li Changyao exchanged a glance, both their faces darkening sowhat. This old swordsman had, at most, t Great-Aunt Yaowen only a couple of tis, and they hadn't seen each other for over thirty years now.
Look at that, [they thought], the Star Sword Saint has beco the Star Love Saint; he can even compose poetry now...
Imdiately, the two paid no more attention to the Star Sword Saint, silently returned to their room, took out the ancestral spirit tablet, and reported to the Ancestor.
