The turmoil of war

The fact that so many Cultivation Method were returned at once shows just how determined the child was to sever his father-son relationship with Li Tiangang!

He Jianlan glanced at Li Tiangang, whose face was ashen, and sighed:

"Heavenly Gang, you are now a father, so please stop holding a grudge against Hao'er. If it weren't for the open-mindedness of your father and the older generation, your marriage with Qingqing would have faced numerous obstacles, and your child would have suffered all sorts of criticism."

"Everyone says Hao'er is lucky, but what makes him so lucky? Although he was born into the Military Family and lives a life of luxury, you and Qingqing have never been there for him. That child waited for you for fourteen years before you came back, and you've only spent a few days together before you had such a big conflict."

"If this continues, your father-son relationship will truly be over."

"Seventh Brother."

Li Xuanli's expression was complicated as he said, "I've seen Hao'er. He's not as bad as you say. If he were my son, I'd be overjoyed. He's polite and considerate, not a reckless person. Besides, you saw the interrogation results..."

At this point, he seemed to remember something, his eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Seventh Brother, you can't blame Hao'er for Ru Meng being slapped," Li Fenghua couldn't help but say.

At this point, he glared fiercely at his wife, Wang Xiangru, who was standing beside him.

Wang Xiangru glared back angrily, showing no fear whatsoever.

Li Fenghua was consumed by anger, clenching her fists, but ultimately letting them relax.

Remembering his father's teachings, a man's fists are for All Under Heaven, not for beating his wife.

That's why he endured it for so many years.

"Seventh Brother, even if you think Hao'er is carefree and Easy Duty, no matter how carefree he is, his cultivation level is still beyond that of his peers. Since he has this Heavenly Talent and the right to Easy Duty, why do you have to push him so hard?"

Jiang Xian'er said softly.

Hearing everyone's advice, Li Tiangang remained silent with a sullen face.

He knew all the words of advice, and it wouldn't be true to say he felt no remorse at this moment. However, whenever he thought of the child's cold face, he felt a surge of anger.

Especially the return of these Cultivation Method, with such a resolute attitude—he's his father, after all!

Blood is thicker than water; even if the bones are broken, the tendons remain. Even if he misjudged the situation, would the child really draw his sword against him?

They even turned against him because of a Demon Creature beast.

How much of that child's affection for his father did he truly share?

"Getting rid of it won't be that easy."

Li Tiangang took a deep breath, his eyes turning cold. "Although I don't know how he obtained these Cultivation Method, what he owes the Li Family is certainly more than this."

"Three years of Border Defense is no easy task; Liang Prefecture is about to descend into chaos!"

Everyone was taken aback by his words.

This concerns the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Liang Prefecture, so Li Xuanli couldn't help but ask, "Seventh Brother, what do you mean by that?"

Li Tiangang glanced at him. Now that things had come to this, there was no need to hide some secret reports anymore.

Besides, he had been planning to make arrangements for some time now; today was simply an earlier step.

Do you know why I ordered the withdrawal of Heaven's Gate Pass and allowed Hongzhuang to return?

"That's where Third Brother and Sixth Brother have guarded for many years. Countless soldiers of the Li Family have perished there, their blood flowing freely. If we withdraw, it's tantamount to abandoning them all!"

Li Tiangang's eyes turned icy and fierce as he said, "It's not that I don't want to defend it, nor that His Majesty is unwilling to defend it, but rather that it's simply impossible to defend it!"

"Outside the Pass Liang Prefecture, beyond the pass, Demon are gathering, preparing to unleash war. Heaven's Gate Pass will bear the brunt, becoming the first Dao Gate!"

"Recently, three 'Mo River' have appeared in Liang Prefecture, all of them at the Nether Capital Tier. One city was affected and submerged by the Mo River; half of the city disappeared and was submerged overnight, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."

"The older generation of the Wang Family has already gone there, hoping to temporarily defeat the Mo River. Passing the level is out of the question, but if they can destroy them all, they can also temporarily erase the three Mo River and prevent them from spreading further."

"The Demon plan to take this opportunity, using Liang Prefecture as a breakthrough point, to invade Great Yu."

"Over the years, Demon have long regarded our Great Yu as their dining table, and the people of our vast territory as fish and meat to be eaten. They have been stirring for a long time. A few days ago, the Xia Family suffered heavy losses. Two Demon King at the Four Establishments Realm invaded our territory, and one of the elders of the Xia Family has already died in battle!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the series of astonishing revelations he made.

The Li Family's core Intelligence network was in the hands of Li Tiangang, a True Dragon, but unexpectedly, so many things happened outside.

"Heavenly Gang, since Liang Prefecture is so dangerous, why did you let Hao'er..." He Jianlan came back to her senses and hurriedly asked.

Li Tiangang said coldly, "I originally planned to wear him down, but who knew that a Four Establishments Realm was secretly protecting him, and he insisted on going against me!"

At this point, he glanced at Li Muxiu.

Li Muxiu roared, "Without the protection of the Four Establishments Realm, do you really think you can protect your son with just Li He?"

"Don't forget that the child's talent has already been revealed. How could those Demons who have a grudge against our Li Family just stand by and watch him grow and rise!"

"At the critical moment when he needed protection the most, you pushed him out of Qing Prefecture, out of our base, leaving him exposed to the wind and snow. Weren't you determined to kill him?!"

Li Tiangang could no longer contain his suppressed anger and roared:

"If it weren't for your spoiling, would Hao'er have ended up like this? Would he have run away from home over something so trivial? And now he still has the nerve to sever ties with me?!"

"You!"

Li Muxiu was so angry that his old face turned red, and he trembled, unable to speak.

"Heavenly Gang, Second Uncle meant well after all, you can't say that." He Jianlan changed slightly, and she hurriedly said.

The others glanced at Li Muxiu. Although this old man had always been in the Divine General Residence, he had done some strange things when he was young and had even argued with their father, which made them all have a bad impression of Li Muxiu.

Over the years, He Jianlan was the only one who was relatively close to Li Muxiu and understood the old man's temperament.

Others were unsure whether they should help persuade them.

Li Tiangang also managed to control his anger, realizing that his attitude just now had indeed been somewhat offensive. He took a deep breath, looked at his Fifth Brother Li Xuanli, and said in a deep voice:

"Fifth Brother, I was planning to talk to you about this in a few days. I intend to have you Past to Liang Prefecture to oversee the situation and scout it out first. When the Demon launch a full-scale attack, I will personally lead the army Past."

Li Xuanli nodded and said earnestly, "No problem, leave it to me. I've been recovering from my injuries all these years, and I'm almost fully recovered. I was supposed to go to the battle in Northern Yan anyway."

Li Tiangang shook his head. "Why should we bother with these distinctions?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xuanli's eyes reddened slightly, but he restrained himself and said nothing more.

Li Fenghua said, "Seventh Brother, just call me if you need anything."

"Eighth Brother, you just need to guard Cang Province well. That's the place that Xiao Jiu risked his life to win back. It cannot be lost," Li Tiangang said in a deep voice.

Li Fenghua nodded slightly. He understood this point as well. That was why he had been diligently guarding Cang Province all these years, and rarely even returned to the Divine General Residence.

Because of this, he neglected to discipline and spend time with his children, resulting in both of them being spoiled rotten by his wife. When he came back this time, he found that it was extremely difficult to discipline them anymore.

Moreover, his wife, relying on her status as Wang Family and the influence of her own family, was not afraid of him.

Therefore, seeing the great battle between Li Tiangang and Li Hao, he felt a deep sense of empathy and unconsciously sided with Li Tiangang, sensing the helplessness he felt as a father.

"In that case, Fifth Brother, you should make preparations in the next few days and set off. Go there as soon as Past to find out the situation. You don't need to worry about Heaven's Gate Pass."

Li Tiangang said.

Li Xuanli was slightly taken aback. "What about Hao'er...?"

"He has the protection of the Four Establishments Realm. If things go wrong, he will naturally come back, unless he really doesn't value his life!" Li Tiangang said coldly.

Li Xuanli's expression changed slightly, but he only sighed inwardly and said nothing.

"Elders, please take these Cultivation Method to the Listening Rain Pavilion."

Li Tiangang bowed slightly to the Elders.

The Elders all nodded slightly. They had no intention of interfering in Li Tiangang's family affairs and had been dutifully fulfilling their duties over the years.

"Then these three unique Signature Technique..."

One of the Elders hesitated.

Li Tiangang immediately thought of the contents of the letter, and his expression darkened slightly.

"What's so special about this Signature Technique?" He Jianlan asked, puzzled.

The Elders statesman spoke gently, saying, "First Madam, it seems that Young Master Li Hao said that if we were to acquire these three Signature Technique Cultivation Method manuals, we would need to guarantee that Li Qianfeng would not be allowed to practice them before we would allow the Signature Technique to be given to him."

Everyone was taken aback and looked at each other, not expecting that the child still remembered this matter.

However, since the father and son had a major argument over this matter that day, it's understandable that the other party would hold a grudge.

"Besides that, there is another option: the other party can also cultivate this Signature Technique, but cannot inherit the position of the Li Family True Dragon," another Elders said.

He Jianlan looked at Li Tiangang: "Is it true?"

Li Tiangang nodded with a stern face.

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances. Fortunately, Liu Yuerong wasn't present; otherwise, she would have certainly launched into a tirade upon hearing this.

"This child is quite shrewd." He Jianlan couldn't help but smile.

Li Tiangang glanced at her and sneered, "Trying to blackmail us with three Signature Techniques? That's wishful thinking! You're incredibly cunning, not like a child at all!"

"He's clearly clever Dexterous Level, how come you call him scheming and manipulative!" Li Muxiu couldn't help but say again.

Li Tiangang frowned but remained silent.

Li Xuanli pondered, "Hao'er's actions are not intended as a threat. This child has resorted to an open strategy. If Qian Feng is truly allowed to cultivate and inherit the True Dragon, and this Signature Technique Cultivation Method comes from his hand, who knows if he has hidden even a single move? If Li Qianfeng uses these Signature Techniques to fight him in the future, the True Dragon will crumble in front of Hao'er with a single blow."

"Even if Qian Feng learns these skills, he won't have the awe-inspiring presence of True Dragon. Therefore, once Qian Feng learns these Signature Techniques, he will be completely controlled by Hao'er for the rest of his life."

"What about the others?" Wang Xiangru asked, her expression changing. She had been thinking of having her two children study here.

Li Xuanli glanced at her and said softly, "As for the others, the gap between them and Hao'er is huge, so whether they learn from him or not... it makes no difference."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangru's expression changed, feeling embarrassed that she had made a fool of herself.

But she had to admit that she couldn't really refute what the other person said for the time being.

Among the next generation, only the one Personal Disciple Buddha Master has a chance of catching up with Li Hao in the future.

Even if everyone else's Signature Technique were flawless, they would be utterly helpless against Li Hao due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels.

However, she was somewhat Qi Ingestion.

There's plenty of time ahead. A lead at one step doesn't guarantee a permanent lead. Once you reach a certain level, you'll naturally hit a bottleneck, and that can take decades. By then, the current lead of a few years will be wiped out and won't seem like much.

Although my two children are not particularly outstanding, they have the advantage of the Wang and Li families' heritage, which is something that other child cannot match. In the future, they may have a chance to compete with them.

Thinking of this, she felt a little better, but she still didn't like Li Xuanli as much, and snorted coldly in her heart.

"Since that's the case, I think we should still include it first. After all, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. As for whether or not to cultivate it, that's up to Qian Feng himself. If he cultivates it, it's like he's willingly accepting being trampled under Hao'er's feet. If he's not willing, he can only cultivate other Signature Technique."

"That's right. Anyway, Listening Rain Pavilion Signature Technique. As long as you master the others and reach their peak, one technique can overcome all others, so there's no difference."

After a few words, everyone finally decided that they should accept the three Signature Techniques.

Seeing this, Li Tiangang also had the same idea, so he said nothing more.
