As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 444: Chapter 176: Dao Fruit Nourishes Enlightenment and Martial Performance, the Old Spirit Child of Bygone Years is Now the Dominant Bull Demon_4

True Intent emerged, devoured by the Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant, merging into this ultimate study created by Li Che himself!

Li Che’s Furnace Body became increasingly luminous, like a dazzling sun!

Countless ultimate studies and their True Intents intertwined above it!

Merging into the Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant, washing over the viscera and bowels time and again!

Resulting in the continuous strengthening of the viscera and bowels!

The cultivation at the Grandmaster Posterior Realm was still rising!

Li Che was now only short of cultivating a Martial Saint Ultimate Study to the Master level, comprehending the Martial Saint’s True Intent, merging it into the Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant, and performing the final tempering on the viscera and bowels!

He could then make his physical body flawless and internally balanced, giving birth to the Shen Gang Power that only a Great Grandmaster could produce!

And the current Li Che…

Could perhaps be called a Half-step Great Grandmaster!

With a thought from Li Che, the Heaven and Earth chessboard expanded, enveloping and blocking perception.

The next moment.

With a flick of his finger, a streak of black light flashed.

Soul Capturing!

The figure of Xue Dufu, captured to be a Divine General, immediately materialized.

“Fight!”

Li Che’s eyes sparkled brightly as he tore open Qiankun Space and tossed the Crescent Blade to Xue Dufu.

Xue Dufu’s lifeless eyes flickered when he grasped the Crescent Blade and then showed signs of struggle and entanglement.

Hmm?!

Li Che was aflame with battle intent, yet his eyes brightened at this very moment!

“Ser… serial number… greets the lord!”

Xue Dufu, the lifeless Divine General, clasped his fists and his hoarse voice echoed through the courtyard.

Self-awareness?!

Li Che burst into laughter.

This Soul Capturing is quite interesting!

Without further words, Li Che thrust out with the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound Spear in his hand.

Wind and thunder surged with his movements, the spear thrusts like shooting stars!

Upon receiving the command, Xue Dufu charged forward with his blade!

A professional Great Grandmaster, available for sparring.

After some time.

Li Che was drenched in sweat, feeling immensely satisfied, with all his pores relaxed and his spirit at a high.

The dark figure of Xue Dufu stood quietly on one side with the Crescent Blade, waiting for orders.

Li Che swept his hand, and Xue Dufu was bound once more.

He returned to the room.

With a wave of his hand, the Fairy in the Painting incarnations of Li Che scurried out, each taking a Divine Crystal handed over by the original Li Che and began to situate themselves in front of the corresponding Wood Carvings to start Observing Divine Likeness.

Li Che sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the precious Six Ministers Divine Realm crystals, beginning to refine and absorb them.

Meanwhile, multitasking.

[Dao Fruit: Chess Saint (LV3, 75%), Fairy in the Painting (LV2, 15%)]

A prompt appeared.

Li Che’s eyes gleamed brightly; the battle with Xue Dufu and the opening of the Heaven and Earth chessboard, which blocked perceptions from all sides, had led to a considerable improvement.

Secondly, the Divinity absorbed from Xue Dufu also brought enhancements.

Unconsciously, it had reached 75%. Li Che’s routine cultivation also involved using the Heaven and Earth chessboard, which was a slow improvement.

“It’s getting close,”

“I’ll soon break through to LV4…”

Li Che was quite looking forward to the transformation of the Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit. The Prototype of Divine Powers, [Great Avalanche], from the Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit had brought significant help to Li Che.

The Guanyin Lotus Bullet was created based on [Great Avalanche].

Therefore, Li Che naturally anticipated the transformation of the Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit.

What kind of Divine Ability would it give birth to!

The [Fairy in the Painting] Dao Fruit, similar to the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit, was also activated daily, and its maturity was rapidly increasing.

However, unlike the Immortal Artisan and Dragon Elephant Vajra, there was no means to accelerate the transformation.

Slowly calming his mind.

He closed his eyes to meditate.

Li Che entered a state of cultivation.

…

…

Late into the night.

Li Che left the alley, packed meals from a small restaurant, and returned to Zheng Lei Peak.

There was no one in the courtyard; Zhang Ya was probably still in Li Qingshan’s courtyard.

Hence, Li Che directly took the packed meals and went to Li Qingshan’s courtyard.

“Daddy!”

As soon as Li Che entered, he heard the explosive shout!

Xi Xi dashed into the rain, her footsteps splashing, and she hurried towards Li Che at breakneck speed.

She crashed into Li Che’s embrace.

Li Che held her, circulated his blood energy to evaporate the dampness, and rubbed her head.

“Daddy’s fine.”

Li Che said kindly, with a smile.

Xi Xi didn’t believe it and circled around Li Che to inspect him. Only after confirming that Li Che was alright did she let out a sigh, like a little adult.

Holding Xi Xi, he spread open the rain curtain and walked to his wife, Zhang Ya, who was leaning against the door frame, with one hand holding Xi Xi and the other arm around Zhang Ya.

“It’s okay, we’re all fine.”

Li Che’s voice was gentle yet firm.

Zhang Ya nodded.

Inside the house.

Nurse Momo, leaning on her python-headed cane, looked at the warm scene of Li Che and his family, envy shimmering through her cloudy eyes.

Unfortunately, the years had left their marks; she had grown too old and had lost the ability to bear children.

Li Qingshan appeared at some point and took Nurse Momo’s hand.

Without saying much, he just offered a radiant smile.

Just like in those years when they had both plunged into the martial world.

After spending a warm moment with his wife and daughter, Li Che started to make preparations for dinner.

Hearing there was food, Xi Xi perked up, expertly climbing onto the table and waiting for the dishes to be served.

Not long after they began eating, Nan Lihuo and King Taoist arrived.

King Taoist brought with him Little Fatty and Yun E, the two Divine Children.

Nan Lihuo brought back Lu Chi.

Suddenly, Li Qingshan’s courtyard became lively again.

Nan Lihuo was obviously in a good mood, especially since Xue Dufu, the Great Martial Arts Master who had been so arrogant during the earlier visit, had been fiercely killed.

Of course, he was happy.

He even brought out cherished wine to celebrate.

After a hearty meal and plenty of wine.

Nan Lihuo and King Taoist indicated that they would be staying at Zheng Lei Peak for a while to ensure its safety.

This was their way of providing Li Che with a security guarantee.

After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.

Li Qingshan then called Li Che into the study.

Li Qingshan blocked any prying detection and his eyes finally flashed with sharpness, staring at Li Che with wonder and disbelief.

“You, young man…”

“You… you…”

Li Qingshan took a deep breath, expelling the shock in his heart.

“You summoned Horse Face and Divine Monkey and killed Xue Dufu, the Great Martial Arts Master together? And… the matter of taking down Watching Tide Pavilion, the base of the Hunting God Pavilion, was that also discovered by you? You just bulldozed through Watching Tide Pavilion?”

Li Qingshan was utterly astonished.

Among the many from the Underworld.

Horse Face was skilled in long-distance assassination.

The Divine Monkey was wild and unrestrained, capable of challenging Great Grandmasters…

Only the Bull Demon was the master of Mechanical Techniques!

The mushroom cloud fireworks that destroyed the Hunting God Pavilion and rocked the entire Golden Light Prefecture City…

They were the work of the Bull Demon!

And they came from this…

Honest and down-to-earth young man!

Li Che, looking at the amazed Li Qingshan, smiled gently and instead of denying, he generously admitted, “Xue Dufu was indeed killed by a joint attack, and as for the Hunting God Pavilion… They accepted a mission to assassinate me and Zhang Ya, I couldn’t ignore it. Besides… the Hunting God Pavilion was also trying to compete with the Underworld, so I flattened it.”

Li Qingshan gasped!

He had not expected that the old Spirit Child from Fei Lei City, who was tested twenty-one years ago, would develop such a domineering attitude over the years!

Is this the courage that comes with possessing a mighty weapon?

Flattened it, just like that…

But damn it, that was the Hunting God Pavilion!

The number one assassin organization in the world!

Li Qingshan’s face twitched.

Quite impressive…

You, Bull Demon, really are impressive!

But thinking about the terrifying mushroom cloud fireworks Li Che possessed, it seemed he indeed had the capital to brag…

Mechanism Masters… each one is terrifying!

Li Qingshan himself was overwhelmed by the casual audacity that Li Che unintentionally revealed.

The Underworld, maybe, is even more formidable than he had imagined!

Li Qingshan rubbed his hands together.

“A Che… I wonder if your Underworld is still recruiting? I’m part of the Underworld now, right?”

Li Qingshan was genuinely anxious.

Li Che had left him out too many times already!

Li Che look at Li Qingshan seriously, “Joining the Underworld is very dangerous…”

“It’s okay, I love the thrill!”

Li Qingshan waved his hand dismissively.

Upon hearing this, Li Che smiled.

Then, he squinted his eyes.

He uttered words that seemed familiar to Li Qingshan.

“Cat face, there’s a very lucrative cooperation opportunity… Are you interested?”
