The Mysterious Way of Heaven

Chapter 9

"Well, but Little Bird is your pet. You should give it a name, I don't care!" Li Yun said with a smile.

"What's a good name for it? A bird with feathers on its back? Blue yan, white claws, red feathers! That's right! Those three red feathers are the best on its body. I'll call it red feathers. How about it, young master?" The little girl's current appearance was much happier than before.

"Starchaser, is the Young Master awake?" Uncle Cheng's voice came from the outside.

"Uncle Cheng, I'm already awake. I'm coming out now." As she spoke, she winked at Zhaixing. The little girl shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue, and quickly jumped out of bed and ran out of the room.

When they came to the outer room, the strong man in black outside had already sent in the clean water and breakfast. Star-picking served Li Yun to wash his face and rinse his mouth. After breakfast, the three went back to the inner room and sat down.

"In previous years, the people who came to inspect the villa all left in a flash. Most of them came for money. Why is it so strange this time? Why don't they want money?" Li Yun asked the question from last night.

"This matter is not simple. This Zhao Sancai is the head of the Li family's Steel Guard. He has a surname outside, and since he is able to command the Iron Guard, how could there not be a special place for him? Yesterday, when he came, I exchanged blows with him and realized that I was no match for him at all. This person is probably already at Purification stage, and the men that he brought along are also not beneath my cultivation level. Sending such a person to patrol the courtyard. I have never heard of him before. This time around, he must have come specifically for us." After saying this, Uncle Cheng's expression became increasingly worried.

"Are they against us? We have nothing to do with them in this remote place. How could they...?" Li Yun asked strangely.

"They're so powerful, let's run away!" Zhai Xing whispered, holding the bird cage. He leaned against Li Yun, feeling a little scared.

Uncle Cheng said, "They can't escape. Each of their kung fu is not below mine. How can they escape?"

"So what? At worst, you'll just have to lock me up for a few more years." Li Yun said indifferently. After going all out, the pressure in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"Oh yes, Uncle Cheng, I have already completed the Bone Forging Level 9."

"What?" He Cheng felt a clap of thunder beside his ear and stood up suddenly. "How is this possible?" Although he knew that Li Yun was talented, he never expected that he would be even more talented than a monster. He knew too well how difficult it was to practice the nine methods. It was almost impossible to succeed. If it weren't for He Chaoyang's insistence, He Cheng would never agree with Li Yun to practice this method.

"What kind of luck did Xiaoyun go through yesterday?" Although there were a lot of doubts in his mind, he knew that Li Yun would not say it.

"Wait, Miss!" A clear thought appeared in He Cheng's mind at this time. "I'm going to think about something in the outer chamber. You two don't need to disturb me." In the command, He Cheng stepped out, leaving Li Yun and Zhai Xing looking at each other in dismay.

"The Li family's big coup this time is not aimed at us, but at Miss. It's true that the only person who can be connected with Miss is Miss." Since the main vein had been revealed, He Cheng continued to analyze it.

"I don't have a reason. Although Miss is hot-tempered, she knows how to behave properly. Moreover, she has been restraining her temper all these years. She will not easily become enemies with others unless there is interest disputes." He Cheng was shocked. "Profits" made him sweat in a cold sweat.

At this time, scenes of Li Cui's appearance in Zhongdu flashed across He Cheng's mind.

She slowly closed her eyes, tears flowing down from the corners of her eyes. She thought that she was just speculating, and it might not be true. But other than that, there was no other relief.

"What help? What help? We have been rescued by Miss since we were young. Miss, you have both saved our lives and raised us up. If you really sell Miss, you will die without regret." He Cheng opened his eyes, wiped the tears on his face, and murmured, "It seems that before the establishment of the villa, He Gong had sold the news. I said why other son of a concubine had been built by the Li family, but Xiaoyun sent me here. It turned out that it was for Miss An's heart. At the same time, he also indulged Xiaoyun, so that we could have something on him. He was famous. He shouldn't suddenly cause trouble and arouse people's suspicion without any excuse."

"The Li family is really well-designed. It seems that the Li family is just a threat, and they just need to wait for Miss to come to save them. But it's a pity for them." Thinking of this, yesterday's doubts were all solved, and he let out a long sigh and went inside.

In the middle of the night, a group of people was marching toward the direction of Cuiping Village on the official road.

"How can you catch up with the law enforcement team by walking in this way? Do you really want to fight to the death?" A woman's anxious voice sounded from the carriage in the middle of the line.

Li Munan sat opposite He Chaolu in the carriage. Facing He Chaolu's questions, Li Munan said, "I'm the Master of the Li family. I don't know how many people want to get rid of me! How can I ride with you? It's already a great risk to have only four elders accompanying me this time."

"Where is the carrier pigeon of the Li Mansion? Why isn't it used?"

"In the mansion of Li Yun, there is no place for pigeons to stay. How to pass on the message?" Seeing the explosive momentum of He Chao, he added, "Well, we are not far from Cuiping Village. I'll write you a handwritten letter. You go first, and I'll come later."

After a while, a fast horse rushed out of the team and left.

Li Munan's calm voice came out of the carriage. "It's too late to go there now. Let me show you how to handle the follow-up tricks, instead of showing you off."

On the morning of the third day, the sky was overcast with dark clouds. The clouds were so low that it seemed as if they were about to press on the ground. There was no wind at all. It was so stuffy that it made people feel a little difficult to breathe.

In the bedroom, Li Yun and Zhaixing were still awake. "Young Master, why do you think this bird is still sleeping? I thought it was dead. It hasn't eaten for so many days. Won't it be hungry?" The little girl asked as soon as she opened her eyes.

"When the bad guys outside leave today, I'll ask Uncle Cheng for some healing medicine," Li Yun said.

"It's not dawn yet. I can't fall asleep!"

"It's already daytime, but it's very dark outside."

Just as they were chatting, they heard someone yelling from outside the door, "Li Yun, He Cheng, Zhai Xing, hurry up and leave the house. The punishment for our Master has arrived."

"Young Master, I'm afraid!" Hearing the sudden voice, Zhaixing suddenly shrank into Li Yun's arms. "Don't be afraid. With Young Master here, they should leave after punishing you." Li Yun hurriedly comforted Zhaixing.

The three of them put on their clothes and walked out of the room. Outside the door, Zhao Sancai was waiting with four strong men in black. When he saw the three of them coming out, he first cupped his hands and said, "Ninth Young Master, I'm sorry to offend you."

Under the pressure, the three of them came to the front yard. There were five people standing in the yard, and the first one was an old man. He was tall, skinny, and gloomy. Behind him were four strong men in black with dark red sticks in their hands. At this time, the old man saw the three of them and waved his hand. The four strong men in black came forward and surrounded the three of them. Zhai Xing was so scared that he grabbed Li Yun's arm tightly.

The old man said, "The master of the family said that Li Yun went out without permission, so He Cheng failed to watch him. The two broke his Elixir Field and were not allowed to leave his mansion. Take him aside and execute him later."

As soon as he said this, even Zhao Sancai was shocked, not to mention Li Yun and the other two. "How can there be such a heavy punishment? What on earth does the family head want to do to kill such a genius?" Even though Zhao Sancai was as clever as a wolf, he couldn't figure out the reason. He just stood there and felt a little confused.

Li Yun and He Cheng didn't expect that when they were still in a daze, they were held down by two strong men in black. Zhai Xing was still pulling Li Yun's arm, and he was at a loss.

"Starfallen and incited Li Yun to go out. He's sentenced to—death!Carry it out immediately!" As the old man's voice fell, the other two strong men in black pulled up Starfall, who was still in a daze, and dragged him into the courtyard.

Zhai Xing was timid. He burst into tears. "Young Master, Young Master, Young Master" He was in the hands of the strong man in black, struggling and shouting.

Everything happened so fast that no one could react in time.

Seeing this, Li Yun widened his eyes and shouted, "Let Zhaixing go. It's my own business. It has nothing to do with Zhaixing." He shouted and struggled hard to get rid of it, trying to save Zhaixing. He had no choice but to hold his hand, as motionless as a mountain.

"Zhao Sancai, watch He Cheng!" Seeing that He Cheng was about to move, the old man knew that he could not be controlled by a strong man in black, so he ordered Zhao Sancai.

At this time, Zhai Xing had been pressed on the ground in the courtyard. The other man raised his stick and hit on Zhai Xing's back. Zhai Xing was beaten to spit out a mouthful of blood and stopped crying.

Li Yun only felt a surge of hot blood, and his whole head was growling. Only the scene of Zhai Xing being beaten was in his eyes. He could not hear any sound in his ears. His struggle was getting bigger and bigger.

In the blink of an eye, the second blow had already landed. Zhai Xing spat out another mouthful of fresh blood. At this moment, he was unable to make any sound. He merely lifted his head and looked at Li Yun with tears in his eyes.

"Ah!!!" Li Yun's scream was filled with brutality. The golden inner strength in his body was circulating faster and faster. The True Origin Spiritual Liquid that was originally hidden in various parts of his body was also beginning to stir.

With a bang, the third stick fell on Zhai Xing again. But at this time, there was no movement of Zhai Xing at all.

There was already blood flowing out from the corner of Li Yun's mouth. It was caused by too much gritting his teeth. The corners of his eyes were wide open, and there were also traces of blood. The true essence and spiritual milk in his body began to appear, but this time it didn't destroy. Under the guidance of the golden inner strength, they merged into the connection between the two sides of the bones. The veins of his skin, flesh, and viscera were all inside. The white ball that had been hidden in the flesh of his bones was also quickly being moved by the golden inner strength.
