Chapter 1886: Chapter 1949: Promise
Li Yifei recounted the healing process to Su Tianhai, who was relieved to hear there were no mistakes, and took Li Yifei back to his room to continue explaining formation thods. He didn’t have much ti left, and none of his children or grandchildren were interested in learning about formation thods. eting soone like Li Yifei, who was genuinely hardworking and interested, he was willing to teach him. After all, it was a cultural treasure, and having one more inheritor is always beneficial.
Li Yifei didn’t feel tired, so he spent the afternoon learning from Elder Su, gaining a lot of knowledge. However, the knowledge of formation thods was too complex to be learned quickly. Throughout the afternoon, Li Yifei managed to set up a small formation, which made him laugh because the use of this formation... was to alter the air within the formation, capable of raising the temperature slightly. If used on a snowy mountain, it could change the temperature enough to prevent freezing.
Used at ho, it could make the environnt feel like spring all year round with a constant temperature. However, Li Yifei could only build a formation the size of a fist. To create a larger formation, much more calculation is needed; it’s not as simple as just placing the materials.
It was indeed a ntal task. Li Yifei rubbed his face as he left Su Tianhai’s room, feeling more exhausted than when suppressing Su Lio’s True Qi, but he enjoyed learning. Su Tianhai was truly a formation expert, much stronger than Murong Yuanqing and others.
After dinner, Li Yifei continued studying when he received a call from Song Lianyao, who excitedly told him that the restaurant had opened today with help from Bai He’s father, Bai Tianpeng, and the support of several major bosses from Ying City. The restaurant was booming right from the start.
After so discussion, they decided to set the prices at a dium level. For three to four people, a al would generally cost around 200 to 300 yuan, which isn’t too expensive even in Ying City and is affordable for regular families.
Today was just the first day of official business, and they were all present. People knew the restaurant owner was a formidable person, and the local gang leaders had already been warned not to cause trouble. In fact, if anyone dared to stir up trouble, those leaders would co to settle it swiftly.
This was just a trial, and if successful, they could expand to the whole province, or even beyond. Hearing Song Lianyao’s excitent, Li Yifei was happy for her. This girl had always been a bit self-conscious, as was Li Xinyue. Finding sothing to prove their worth was a good thing in Li Yifei’s opinion.
The difference between having a goal and having none is vast. So, Li Yifei encouraged her, telling Song Lianyao to go for it. Li Yifei and the sisters at ho were her backing. As for the child, when older, there would be enough people at ho to look after it.
Excited, Song Lianyao kissed Li Yifei several tis over the phone and teased him with a soft voice before reluctantly hanging up.
Li Yifei took a shower and lay on the bed, relaxing his mind and organizing the tasks he needed to do. The fight with the Saintess needed to be scheduled, as his internal injuries had healed and she would surely hear about it. It might be better for him to propose it himself.
But there was no rush; he could discuss it after returning ho. He was confident. Although the Saintess was strong, she was likely similar to Satan. In his current condition, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage in a fight. Moreover, Li Yifei believed she wouldn’t fight desperately, making it easier to win.
Thinking this, Li Yifei felt more at ease. This battle with the Saintess was even more crucial than the one with Satan. To overco the inner demon and achieve a higher level, the Saintess needed to kill him. But Li Yifei... he neither wanted to kill her nor be killed.
"Hmm, it feels like I’m at a disadvantage, considering I hadn’t planned to kill her!" Li Yifei muttered to himself. The image of the Saintess appeared in his mind. She was indeed enchanting. Li Yifei wasn’t usually fond of European or Arican won, but the Saintess’s looks were flawless. Her figure, beauty, aura, and skin were all exceptional. Killing her would be such a waste.
"I must defeat her, and only then... can I bring the Saintess ho. Then wouldn’t I have another supre expert at ho!" Li Yifei drew a few lines in the air, as if outlining the shape of a woman.
He stayed at the Su Family for another two days. Apart from eating and sleeping, Li Yifei was mostly learning formation thods from Elder Su. Although he didn’t learn much, it was enough for his needs. His initial goal was to set up a large formation at ho to maintain a spring-like climate and provide so level of alarm.
Packing was easy as he only had a few clothes, but Elder Su gave him many items for setting up formations, such as crystals, jade, and so refined tals. Knowing that there was a Worm King at Li Yifei’s ho that could extract essence from flowers, Su Tianhai also gave him a formation that could further refine the essence.
According to Su Tianhai, everything has a spirit. The essence of flowers is also a type of wood attribute essence, which can be considered a formation material. It’s extrely rare. Wood and water are inherently life-giving, and wood essence has many uses. For example, if a nearly withered and dying plant receives a bit of wood essence, it can defy the laws of nature and rejuvenate. The sa applies to humans, but a person couldn’t withstand it directly. They’d need help from soone like Li Yifei to consu it in a special way to be effective.
Imdiately, Li Yifei thought of Old Master Su Jingguo. His health was also not good. Perhaps he could use this too. Su Tianhai confird this, though he noted that flower essence, while a kind of wood essence, wasn’t as effective as pure wood essence. Flower essence could easily lead to hallucinations, similar to certain drugs. Li Yifei secretly blushed because he’d fallen for it once, nearly exhausting the three won at ho.
Items were sent to Li Yifei’s house by designated personnel, so he only theoretically needed to carry his luggage. However, as he was leaving, Li Yifei found himself with an extra... person, which was Su Lio.
Initially, Li Yifei was taken aback, but he understood in a few seconds. Su Lio’s internal chill was happening more frequently, unlike in the past when it could be suppressed once every few months. Now it needed to be suppressed weekly. Li Yifei couldn’t travel to Changbai Mountain weekly, so she needed to stay with him at the Li Household instead of remaining on the mountain.
Of course, Su Lio was reluctant, and her health didn’t allow much hassle. But the doctor had to leave, and if she wanted treatnt, she had to go with him...
Initially, Su Lio found it hard to accept. She didn’t want to leave her grandfather and ho because nowhere felt as comforting as ho. So Elder Su persuaded her, saying that staying at the Li House would be the sa. The families were related now, and Li Yifei had Su ngxin. By seniority, she should call Su Lio ’aunt.’ So, going to the Li House would be the sa. Furthermore, Li Yifei would set up formation thods, making the environnt similar to the Su Family.
With much persuasion, Su Lio finally accepted, but she still deliberately put on a stern face in front of Li Yifei.
The Su Family also expressed their gratitude to Li Yifei. Elders like Wang Chao and Ma Han expressed further appreciation privately and gave Li Yifei cherished items, including alcohol, dicine, and so antiques.
Li Yifei insisted it wasn’t necessary, but the Su Family persevered, so he had to accept, which seed to ease their minds.
Not everyone at the Su Family was happy, though, like a few brothers and cousins of Su Lio’s age, especially Su Tong. He was practically furious with Li Yifei. Although Li Yifei saved Su Lio, taking her away to spend every day together made Su Tong worry. If anything inappropriate occurred, Su Tong felt he’d be crushed.
Other third-generation males in the Su Family were also a bit displeased, but they couldn’t save Su Lio. They could only watch as she left.
Li Yifei ignored such attitudes. He had no inappropriate intentions. If misunderstood, according to his nature, it didn’t bother him. After all, he wouldn’t be the one upset or angry.
Li Yifei promised Su Tianhai he would send so flower essence in return, hoping he’d recover well, take care of his health, and most importantly, guard against villainous sches and stay safe.
Li Yifei truly wished for Su Tianhai to have a peaceful end, ideally passing quietly in his sleep rather than dying suddenly. For a heroic figure, this would be the best outco. A tragic end would be too heartbreaking.
Su Tianhai laughed, saying to rest assured. He had weathered many storms over the years; he wouldn’t die so easily. Of course, this conversation was private and not ntioned in front of the Su Family.
As the car drove away from the Su House, Li Yifei and Su Lio looked back. The entire family was waving at the doorway, with Su Tianhai waving as well. Although the old master’s body was slightly hunched, he still exuded a strong aura. Sadly, he had aged. Taking Su Lio away made Li Yifei wonder what Old Master Su’s feelings were.
"Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to make her feel better and find a treatnt thod!" Li Yifei vowed in his heart.
anwhile, Su Lio was teary-eyed, entangling her fingers as she looked at Su Tianhai.
