Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 305: No One Will Ever Know

[Your Guardian Beast awaits. Please bestow a name upon it, any name will suffice.]

”...”

The Event Log once again displayed a message from the Raging Sky Flood Dragon. Li Wei stroked his chin, assuring himself that his impending retaliation was definitely not because the gigantic serpent had condensed his meticulously crafted, several-hundred-word message into a mere few words. After all, the Li family were not known for their pettiness.

”Hmm, thatʼs the one...”

[The Primordial Blood Tree reports to you: Your descendants, Li Yaotie and the Seven Ironclad, are taking advantage of Li Yaoqingʼs absence and attempting to retaliate against it for previously reporting their misdeeds while it was resting. It requests your permission to teach them a lesson.]

”Permission granted.”

Li Wei solemnly clicked on the Raging Sky Flood Dragonʼs avatar and, after a serious consultation with his clan members, finally bestowed upon it a resounding name.

He then swiftly switched the scene to the Li familyʼs main hall.

Meanwhile, the members of the Li family gathered at their home to discuss matters concerning the Azure Cloud region. After Li Kuangtu, the family did not appoint a new head. Li Dalong declared that from then on, all family matters would be decided collectively by those present. Once they had formulated a plan, if it was a major issue, they would simply consult their ancestor.

Suddenly, everyone in the Li family looked towards the outside with bewildered expressions.

”Hahahaha, I have a name! Out in the world, I shall be known as Raging Sky Flood Dragon! And at home, you can call me Lao Genʼer (Old Root)! Hahahaha, I even have a family name now, Li Lao Genʼer (Old Root)!”

”Oh!”

”Tremble before me, enemies, before the might of Lao Genʼer (Old Root)!”

The corners of everyoneʼs mouths twitched. They recognized the ecstatic roars of the Raging Sky Flood Dragon...no, Lao Genʼer (Old Root).

They didnʼt notice little Li Changyao proudly lifting her head.

She would never tell her clan that their ancestor had just appeared before her in a vision, asking her to give the Guardian Beast a mighty nickname. This meant that their ancestor approved of her!

No one will ever know...

Suddenly, Li Changyao froze, the gazes of her elders fixed intently upon her.

”...”

Li Changyao tilted her head and scratched her head. Was it really that obvious?

The Li family members, their faces darkening, were just about to teach Li Changyao a lesson to avoid more incidents that would tarnish the ʼfamily prestigeʼ when their expressions turned black.

On the side of the Primordial Blood Tree...

”Help!”

”You despicable, snitching old tree! Donʼt think youʼre so great just because youʼre powerful! Just you wait!”

”Hahahaha! Iʼve finally been waiting for this day! You eight bastards itʼs time to settle both old and new scores!”

”...”

Outside, branches swayed wildly as roots entwined the eight brawny figures, flinging them around like rag dolls in a whirlwind. Inside the main hall, the Li family members, their faces grim, casually activated a soundproofing formation, effectively tuning out the cacophony from outside.

But as they turned away, they couldnʼt help but reveal a hint of a smile.

In Green Valley Town, those queuing up to pay their respects at the ancestral shrine also gazed towards the Li family home. Hearing the commotion, they couldnʼt help but smile.

Perhaps...no, surely.

This is what they sought to protect. This is how it should be.

...

Inside the main hall.

Li Dalong settled back into the head seat and took a sip of tea. There werenʼt many people present; Li Tianyi, Li Tianming, and Li Tianqi had gone off to the Wu Clan to ”borrow” some resources again. Glancing around at the remaining members, he finally spoke, ”The Feng family, after all, is under the jurisdiction of the imperial dynasty. If we take action, it cannot be overt. Moreover, we cannot allow the Li family to be implicated in this matter.”

”Donʼt worry, Grandpa.”

Li Yunbing sat stiffly. ”Fourth Auntʼs Dawn has already been handed over to me. These past few days, Iʼve had Dawnʼs assassins keeping a close eye on the Feng family. Not a single one of them will escape. Now that the major powers in the Azure Cloud region have reemerged, they are all willing to follow our Li familyʼs lead. Grandpa, if you want to deal with the Feng family, we have plenty of ways to do it.”

Li Yaoqing said casually, ”If the demonic cultivators take action, then it wonʼt be our Li familyʼs business. After all, demonic cultivators are capable of anything.”

”Kuangren, Miʼer, Changsheng, Changyao, what are your thoughts?”

Following Li Dalongʼs inquiry, everyone turned their attention to Li Kuangrenʼs family.

After all, the Feng family was their maternal family.

The family remained expressionless. Li Changyao harbored no affection for the Feng family. After her birth, all she knew was that her so-called maternal grandfather had sent people to snatch her away, intending to marry her off at such a young age. Even when she reached her twenties, they still schemed to use her for marriage alliances. She had vaguely heard some tales of past events and simply couldnʼt comprehend how such a shameless prince could exist within the esteemed Princeʼs Mansion.

”Sigh...”

Li Changsheng let out a long sigh. He noticed the reluctance in his motherʼs eyes, as did the rest of the Li family. Then, with a deep exhale, Li Changsheng said, ”Mother, thereʼs something I must say. Did you know? In the past, the direct descendants of my uncleʼs lineage tried to harm me, believing I was vying for the position of heir.”

Everyone looked at Li Changsheng, their brows furrowed.

Li Changsheng continued, ”How could I possibly have any right to contend for the position of heir? I am of a different surname. It was my maternal grandfather who wanted me to take the position. He gave me a drop of precious Human Emperorʼs blood. So many years have passed, and Iʼve been forced to spend my days sleeping and cultivating in seclusion atop Grandfather Divine Tree, seeking to shield myself from the Heavenly Secrets. Why do you think that is?”
