"It's fine, Ah Fei's true form is the Longevity Wood, he won't die, he'll be back after a while."
After Li Changqing finished speaking, he sighed lightly, "Tomorrow, come with me to build a clothing grave for Fuguang. For the sake of our father-son matter, Fuguang gave his life."
"Alright."
Li Hengsheng nodded.
The next day, Li Changqing, together with Li Hengsheng and Zhang Fuguang's daughter, Zhang Siyao, built a clothing grave for Zhang Fuguang in Changting Town.
Zhang Siyao cried her heart out.
Li Hengsheng and Li Changqing also promised before Zhang Fuguang's grave to take good care of Zhang Siyao.
Li Changqing directly recognized Zhang Siyao as his goddaughter, making her Li Hengsheng's god sister.
They offered incense for Zhang Fuguang.
Regarding Zhang Siyao, Li Changqing had no intention of letting her engage in cultivation because he knew very well that Zhang Fuguang, when alive, wished most for Zhang Siyao to live an ordinary life.
To be a normal person.
Away from those disputes.
Zhang Fuguang risked his life to escape from the Blood Shadow Sect, fleeing all the way with Zhang Siyao for this very purpose.
It was just that halfway, he encountered Li Changqing, received the favor of eight buns, and planned to repay the kindness before continuing to live with Zhang Siyao.
But unexpectedly, in the end, Zhang Fuguang was unable to reach that peaceful and harmonious place devoid of strife and killing.
After a few days, Ah Fei indeed flew back.
At the same time, Li Hengsheng also decided to leave the Yan family and return to the Mountain Ancient Land to continue his cultivation. Although he couldn't reach the realm of Celestial Immortal in fifty years, Li Hengsheng wanted to give it a try, as he couldn't wait for fifty years and still rely on his father to solve this matter.
Regarding Li Hengsheng's decision, Li Changqing said nothing but expressed his support.
He also gave some Painting Treasures to Li Hengsheng for self-defense.
These Painting Treasures were previously carved by Li Changqing, and now with only One Soul remaining, he couldn't carve anymore.
The items carved were merely ordinary objects without any function.
His Divine Soul cultivation was no more.
Merely an ordinary person.
After Li Changqing caused a scene in Celestial Sea City, even the Longevity Sect was once again quieted down, not causing any more trouble.
Li Changqing had the Ghost Lord of Qishan steal Gu Hanxi's corpse, which indeed startled the Longevity Sect's headmaster.
Once again, Li Changqing disrupted the Longevity Sect's plans.
But he could only grit his teeth in anger without a solution, as the current Li Changqing was recognized by many as the number one under heaven.
With just their Longevity Sect's foundation, they couldn't compete with him.
They could only endure this frustration.
And a month and a half later, someone arrived in Changting Town — Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge was amazed for a long time upon seeing Li Changqing's appearance, and only then did Li Changqing inquire about Li Xuanxi's affairs. Mu Qingge told him that Li Xuanxi had a daughter, but left with her the day after she was born.
Where she went was completely unknown.
Mu Qingge had no choice but to return.
Upon hearing he had a granddaughter, Li Changqing was beyond happy, though now his granddaughter's whereabouts were unknown, which left him with regret.
Otherwise, even if his son wasn't around, it would be a joy to teasing his little granddaughter every day.
Unable to do anything, Li Changqing could only focus his attention on the Evergreen Commerce Association for now.
At the same time, he also had Bai Jingfei have Cangyuan Pavilion's intelligence help to seek out Li Xuanxi's whereabouts.
But as Li Xuanxi was a Celestial Immortal, finding traces of her was truly difficult.
A long time passed without results.
Mu Qingge also once returned to the Medical King Valley, only to discover that, with the quieting of the Longevity Sect, the Medical King Valley was also deserted, with even Mu Hensheng nowhere to be found.
This saddened Mu Qingge, but feeling reassured, she stayed by Li Changqing's side.
Spring went, autumn came.
Seemingly peaceful days passed one by one.
Monarch Yuehan also became very well-behaved, with no messages coming in.
Li Changqing also lived a peaceful life.
Every day he planted vegetables, tended flowers, cooked meals, and tutored Zhang Siyao, living quite a carefree life.
And just as autumn began that year, Li Hengsheng returned suddenly from his cultivation in the Mountain Ancient Land.
He started with a bombshell for Li Changqing.
"Dad, I'm getting married."
Li Hengsheng's excitement carried a touch of shyness.
"Huh?"
Li Changqing didn't expect that after half a year of absence, his son would return and announce his marriage?
"Who with?"
Li Changqing asked in surprise, "Is it that little girl with the surname Lu from Guanglan Palace?"
"Yes." Li Hengsheng didn't deny it and said, "Shiran and I have been corresponding, and we agreed in the letters that we would marry when she reached the Innate Realm. A few days ago, she wrote to tell me she has broken through to the Innate Realm."
"Haha, good."
Li Changqing smiled and then said, "I quite like that little girl too, if you like her, then marry her."
"Hehe, I want to marry her, but since Shiran broke through to the Innate Realm and her Divine Body is nearing the Great Success Realm, Guanglan Palace has now titled her as the Saintess. Whether Guanglan Palace is willing to let their Saintess marry over is another matter." Li Hengsheng said with a bit of shyness.
After stepping into the Innate Realm, Li Hengsheng now served as an outer elder in the Mountain Ancient Land.
But one is a Saintess of Guanglan Palace, and the other is an outer elder of the Mountain Ancient Land, their identities aren't quite matching.
Li Changqing also understood that in such a world, the requirement to be well-matched in marriage is considered very important.
"If my son wants to marry someone, even if she were a Celestial Immortal, your dad will help you marry her." Li Changqing laughed, "I still have some connections with Guang Ancestor, they would give me this face, I'll write him a letter!"
Then, Li Changqing wrote two letters.
One was sent to Guanglan Palace, and the other was handed to Li Hengsheng to take back, for Luo Xiaochuan.
Li Hengsheng didn't know why there was also a letter for Luo Xiaochuan, but he didn't ask and just did as instructed.
Receiving Li Changqing's letter, Luo Xiaochuan was also curious, why would Li Changqing suddenly write to him?
So he opened the letter.
The letter's content was simple.
Brother Luo Xiaochuan, it's been months since we parted, and I miss you very much. Lately, I've been idle at home, contemplating a set of techniques for the Human King's Pen. I'd like to try it out, but it's too powerful and may hurt people. But Brother Luo Xiaochuan, being a Celestial Immortal, shouldn't have a problem, so since there's nothing much going on, would you fancy coming to Changting Town for a spar and helping me test my techniques?
Seeing the letter's words, Luo Xiaochuan's expression changed drastically.
Damn it, a bare-handed strike shattered Yue Zhiming's world and made him vomit blood.
Now with the Human King's Pen in hand, and he wants me to be the test subject?
The moment he saw the letter, Luo Xiaochuan even thought about where to bury himself.
And seeing the following content, Luo Xiaochuan was even more speechless.
I heard there is something called a Saintess position in Guanglan Palace, I don't know what that is, but how come our Mountain Ancient Land doesn't have a Saint Heir position?
I think since we're in the Eastern Wilderness, we shouldn't be outdone, I propose creating a Saint Heir position.
By the way, I have an immature little suggestion, purely casual with no particular intent or selfishness, don't overthink it.
Just saying, hypothetically, is there a tiny possibility, I mean, wouldn't our Hengsheng be more suitable for this Saint Heir position?
After reading it, Luo Xiaochuan was utterly speechless.
Cursing Li Changqing for being shameless, he also convened a meeting with the higher-ups of the Mountain Ancient Land and established a Saint Heir position for Li Hengsheng.
Saint Heir of the Mountain Ancient Land.
With this title added, even Li Hengsheng himself was puzzled.
Was a position specifically set up for him!?
Meanwhile, Luo Xiaochuan also sent back a fierce letter to Li Changqing.
Two words.
No time!
