Chapter 240 Your son is a genius
The news of Li Hao's cultivation and release came out, and not long after, Ji Yunyue and others came to visit Li Hao.
When they saw him again, they all noticed that Li Hao's aura seemed to have changed slightly.
However, Li Hao was covered by his all-encompassing attributes, and they were unable to detect the specific depth.
Li Hao inquired and learned that it took him five days to draw Tao into the spirit and practice Qi meridians.
"When can I go see my mother?"
Li Hao asked.
"The wild sea is almost subdued, you will see it soon."
Ji Yunyue took out a ten-inch-high ancient mirror from the space and said warmly: "This is the holy treasure sky-viewing mirror. The family master and I borrowed it temporarily so that we can observe the situation on Prison Island. You can now see it from a distance." Qingqing.”
Li Hao thanked him and took it, and under Ji Yunyue's guidance, he injected strength into it. He immediately felt as if his consciousness was sinking into the ancient mirror, and a huge map appeared in his mind.
This map contains the entire secret realm of the Ji family's holy land. As long as Li Hao concentrates and concentrates, he can see the entire secret realm of the holy land.
Being able to borrow this thing also shows the Ji family's recognition of Li Hao.
Li Hao could feel their thoughts, but he did not take the liberty to pry into other places. Instead, he focused his thoughts on the far north of the secret holy land mentioned by Ji Yunyue.
I saw a picture appear on the ancient mirror, which seemed to penetrate the clouds and mist, and a vast sea appeared.
The sea area was deep and dark red, as if there was a pool of blood settling deep in the seabed.
The waves surged above, clouds and mist gathered, and the sea breeze blew from time to time.
Li Hao was secretly surprised that the area of the secret realm of the Ji family's holy land was far wider than he had imagined.
The holy land I saw earlier seems to occupy only one percent according to the map scale!
In the center of this vast sea, there is a deep, dark hole. Viewed from a high altitude, you can't see the bottom at a glance, just like a huge eyeball in the center of the sea.
Above this huge deep cave is a suspended island, swaying slightly with the strong wind blowing from high altitude.
There are three thick and huge chains at three angles around the island, interspersed into the island. The island is like a kite, being held by the three chains to prevent it from flying to a higher place.
Li Hao kept focusing his thoughts on the island and saw several mountain caves on it, but one of them was a thatched cottage in the mountain.
In front of the thatched house, there was a figure who was bending down to carry stones and pile them up beside the thatched house. Her clothes were torn and her hair was gray and disheveled, as if she hadn't washed herself in a long time.
His face and arms were covered with dirt and dried mud spots.
Although she looked very sloppy, Li Hao recognized her at a glance as the woman who held him in her arms fifteen years ago.
Li Hao did not expect that the first time they met again, he would see the other party in such a mess.
She is completely different from the beautiful woman in luxurious clothes in the memory of the Divine General's Mansion.
Li Hao's face turned ugly, and a kind of anger or complicated emotion emerged from his heart. He took a deep breath and said: "With my mother's cultivation, she shouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation, right?" , could it be that her cultivation was destroyed?"
Ji Yunyue and others also saw the scene in the painting, their expressions changed slightly, and they all knew what happened on Qitian Island.
It was an extremely dangerous place, so many criminals from the Ji family were imprisoned.
Crimes like Ji Qingqing's were considered relatively minor there, while other crimes included betraying the family, colluding with demons, killing clan members in order to seize treasures, etc.
Some were executed on the spot, and some were spared their lives and were exiled here after pleading with the kindness of their ancestors.
"Qingqing's cultivation has not been abolished."
Ji Yunqing was afraid that Li Hao would misunderstand, so he immediately explained: "If you abolish your cultivation, you may not be able to survive for a few days on Qitian Island, which is no different from being executed."
"That's right, not to mention that Qingqing has pure blood and is considered a genius in our clan. He has reached the three immortal realms in his teens. It would be a pity to abolish his cultivation." Ji Yunyue said.
She looked at the picture in the ancient mirror and said, "The reason why it is like this is because of the special laws on Qitian Island."
"In the deserted sea outside Qitian Island, ordinary people cannot cross it, even in the realm of Juexue, unless they master the Dao domain and use their own Dao domain rules to fight against the rules of the deserted sea."
"As for the desolate abyss in the center of the deserted sea, even the Dao realm cannot do it. It is an absolute forbidden air territory, and sound cannot be transmitted, and the energy of heaven and earth is isolated!"
"Therefore, it is impossible to practice on Qitian Island, and if the energy is consumed, it will be lost and cannot be replenished."
"The criminals detained there can only rely on their own physical strength to survive. If they cannot survive, they will have no choice but to die there."
Ji Yunyue said softly: "When Qingqing was sent to Qingtian Island, the space given to her was filled with food and drink. The family owner also turned a blind eye. We plan to send her more food every ten years." Once, after all, it's too frequent and it's inevitable that she will be discussed. She doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but the environment there is indeed a bit bad. "
Ji Yunqing nodded and sighed: "Fortunately, the Celestial Empire has said hello. The other criminals on the island do not dare to provoke Qingqing. What's more, the criminals there are all looking forward to coming out. They will not offend the outside easily unless they are forced." For someone with a background, your mother doesn’t have to worry about anything else except that her life will be difficult.”
Li Hao silently stared at the ancient mirror while the woman in front of the thatched house carried stones and piled up the blown stone wall next to the thatched house.
Then she wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked up into the air as if she noticed something.
The sight seemed to penetrate the ancient mirror and meet Li Hao's eyes.
Li Hao suddenly felt an indescribable feeling.
It's like a blood connection.
But the woman in the ancient mirror just glanced at it, a little confused, and then walked into the thatched house, seemingly to rest.
Li Hao continued to focus for a moment, and then turned his eyes to look at the rest of Qitian Island. In some caves, he saw many Ji family prisoners who were naked and looked like savages, with disheveled hair and dirt all over their bodies. Sitting or lying down listlessly.
Others took pieces of stone and carved something on the mountain wall, as if they were recording the days.
There were not many criminals, but Li Hao could feel the desolation and gloomy and desperate atmosphere permeating the island just by taking a glance.
He stopped snooping, put away the ancient mirror, and said to Ji Yunyue: "How long will it take for the deserted sea to calm down? Can you let Daoyu take me across it?"
"Don't worry, kid, you should be fine tomorrow. As you just saw, the deserted sea is almost back to peace. Even if you let Daoyu take you there, there is no energy replenishment in the deserted sea. If Daoyu crosses over, the return journey will be difficult. In the end, It’s better to take a boat.”
Ji Yunyue immediately persuaded: "I will go with you tomorrow. By the way, I have to pick twin flowers first, so that I can take your mother away from Qingtian Island. Otherwise, there will be no twin flowers to detoxify your mother. After leaving Qingtian, The special environment of the island and the deserted sea will soon lead to death from poison. "
"She was poisoned?" Li Hao's face changed slightly.
"It's not the kind of poison you imagine. This is a special poison that all prisoners on Qingtian Island must take. It is specially taken to prevent prisoners from being picked up by family elders or from escaping from Qingtian Island privately."
"As long as you stay on the island, you won't be in any danger, just like normal people. But if you leave without authorization, big problems will arise."
Li Hao understood. It seemed that the Ji family had extremely strict control over criminals.
"Son, just ask your aunt to accompany you there tomorrow. Since you are out of seclusion through cultivation today, why don't you go see your grandpa first. He has heard about you in the past few days and has been thinking about seeing you every day."
Ji Yunqing said warmly.
Li Hao looked at them and saw the hope in their eyes. Thinking of Li Tianzong's obsession with the remaining soul, he felt a little unbearable in his heart and nodded.
Seeing that Li Hao agreed, both of them looked happy and immediately took Li Hao to the Ji Family Ancestral Hall.
On the way, Li Hao asked why he didn't see the old man. He was referring to Ji Tianchao.
When Ji Tianchao was mentioned, Ji Yunqing and Ji Yunyue both looked strange and glanced at Li Hao.
Ji Yunqing said: "Recently, people from the Qin family have been wandering around outside the secret realm, looking for trouble with my Ji family. They said that someone witnessed a young man who claimed to be an ancient god clan coming here, and then disappeared. He wanted to investigate in my Ji family's secret realm. Find out."
Speaking of this, both of them looked at Li Hao.
Li Hao was slightly stunned, a little surprised. On the way here, his whereabouts were actually glimpsed?
But he didn't notice it.
"Listen to the description of the Qin family, that young man defeated the genius of the Qin family, even Qin Tianchen, who was at the extremely academic level. He was one of the top ten geniuses of the Qin family, extremely powerful, and the young man was only fourteen or fifteen years old..."
Ji Yunqing just looked at Li Hao and said these messages one by one.
When Li Hao saw the strange looks in their eyes, he immediately knew that they had guessed that the person the Qin family was talking about was him.
He also showed a helpless look immediately.
In this regard, he did not deliberately conceal it, he just asked: "Will this bring trouble to the Ji family? Otherwise, I will solve it myself later?"
"Is that young man really you?"
Ji Yunqing couldn't help but laugh when she saw Li Hao admit it.
Li Hao nodded.
The two of them looked at each other with expressions that confirmed the situation.
But then he burst into laughter. Although he had already inferred it in his mind, he was still surprised to see Li Hao admit it himself.
"Recently, your reputation has been widely circulated in the Great Wilderness. It is said that there is a young man from the Ancient God Clan who kills everyone. He is extremely powerful and can defeat the genius in adversity. We guessed that it might be you."
"Are those legends true? Are you really from the ancient God Clan? Isn't your father from the wilderness?"
Both of them looked at Li Hao curiously.
"That's nonsense. If you don't say that, I'm afraid they won't be able to accept it."
Li Hao explained.
"..."
Both of them were speechless.
I thought of various reasons and reasons, but I never expected it to be this.
Can't accept it? Are you afraid that the geniuses of the Qin family and other families will be shattered when they see it?
You are quite a nice person... The two of them smiled inwardly, but thinking about the strength that Li Hao showed, this time it really hit the younger generation of many families deeply.
Among these people, they were either decadent and depressed, or they regarded Li Hao as the reincarnation of a god and respected him highly.
The reputations of other geniuses all eclipsed in front of Li Hao.
After all, the ancient family itself respects the strong.
"The head of the family also guessed that it was you and asked Heaven to deal with the Qin family, so he didn't come." Ji Yunqing said with a smile.
"They don't dare to really cause trouble. After all, this is my Ji family's territory. If they really make trouble, they will kill all the people who came here. No one will be left. It depends on what the Qin family says. The worst is to start a war. We can at least return it. Taking advantage of the opportunity to strike first."
Ji Yunyue said, although she is a female, when it comes to fighting, her eyes shine with a cold light that is not inferior to that of men.
When Li Hao heard this, he was a little speechless. He had learned a little bit about the behavior of the ancient family.
It didn't take long.
Li Hao came to the Ji family ancestral hall and met the grandfather.
Thinking that the ancestors of the Ji family were all displayed in the ancestral hall, Li Hao thought about it and followed the etiquette of the Ji family and bowed to worship.
After Ji Yunqing introduced Li Hao's identity, he and Ji Yunyue left the ancestral hall. When Ji Yunzhan saw his grandson, he was so excited that he flew out of the memorial tablet and pulled Li Hao to ask questions.
Li Hao also sat on the futon and chatted with the old man's heroic spirit.
Although it was the first time they met, they didn't feel too unfamiliar with each other. Li Hao was in a more relaxed and easy-going mood and chatted about the mother's childhood.
Occasionally, chuckles could be heard in the ancestral hall.
Ji Yunqing stood outside the ancestral hall, and her eyes were somewhat pleased when she heard the chatter and laughter inside.
The next day.
News of the calmness of the desert sea came.
Ji Yunyue came early in the morning, and Li Hao, who had been waiting all night, also got up and flew with the aunt to the far north of the secret realm of the Holy Land.
Thinking that he would be able to meet the mother face to face soon, Li Hao felt somewhat expectant in his heart. This was not to say that he had deep emotions, but it just felt like he was about to meet an old friend from many years ago.
Li Hao still remembered the earnest concern in those seven letters home.
He also kept the woman's thoughts in his heart.
…
…
Outside the Ji family's territory.
Amidst the desolate rocks, a figure lurked here, it was Li Tiangang.
He stared closely at the noisy place in the distance. The fierce battle that broke out there earlier attracted him and made him realize that it was the Ji family's territory that he had been looking for for many days.
He has been hovering around here for four or five days, but he always seems to be stuck in the same place.
He realized that he was in some kind of maze.
At first he suspected that his wife had deliberately left a wrong message to prevent him from coming to her and kill her, but then he thought that his wife was willing to leave the route to Dahuangtian. Even if she did not enter Ji's house, the area was extremely dangerous and dangerous, so she did not deceive him. necessary.
If you really want to deceive, you might as well refuse to provide any clues.
"Qingqing, Hao'er..."
Li Tiangang's eyes flashed and he took a deep breath.
He calmed down and waited for the noisy conflict to end and the other party to leave. After another moment, he quietly approached.
When he saw the group of people with the ancient Chinese character "Ji" on their clothes, Li Tiangang was both excited and nervous. He knew that he had finally arrived at the secret place of the Ji family that his wife had mentioned.
The ancient character Ji is his wife's surname, and it is also one of the few ancient characters he knows.
Seeing that the group of people were about to leave, Li Tiangang gritted his teeth and finally chose to give it a try. Whether he lived or died, he could only leave it to fate. He could not let his children, including his wife, bear the responsibility for the mistakes he made.
"Everyone, please wait!"
Li Tiangang stepped out and called out.
Many of the Ji family members in front were shocked when they heard this, and looked quickly, all their eyes falling on Li Tiangang.
"Who?!"
Suddenly someone shouted vigilantly.
Li Tiangang said quickly: "I am Ji Qingqing's husband, and I am here to find my wife."
He did not directly report his surname and identity, fearing that the Ji family would kill indiscriminately and try to avoid causing trouble to the Li family.
If the other party really wants to break out of the wilderness and cause trouble for the Li family, then they can only ask the family to seek royal protection.
Hearing Li Tiangang's words, many Ji family members were stunned.
One of the old men was none other than Ji Yunyu, Ji Laosi, Ji Yunge's fourth brother.
"Are you Qingqing's husband?"
When Ji Yunyu heard Li Tiangang's words, she couldn't help but be stunned, and soon she thought of that young man, and her eyes glowed with light.
"Um……"
Li Tiangang felt great oppression from the old man, and his heart was secretly trembling. He had encountered a being in the Taiping Dao realm before, and the old man in front of him gave him a similar feeling.
This Ji family is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Any old man in front of you is in the Taoist realm of Taiping. What my wife said is indeed true. If she hadn't reached the Taoist realm, she would have basically died in this place!
He tensed up, gritted his teeth, and was about to plead guilty directly, hoping that he could die in exchange for the survival of his wife and Li Hao, but suddenly, the old man said to him:
"Are you separated from your son? Why are you here now?"
The tone was actually very gentle.
Li Tiangang has been working in the army for a long time. Hearing this tone, which showed no murderous intention, he couldn't help but be startled, and then his heart tightened again:
"Senior, have you seen my son?"
He looked at the other party nervously.
Ji Yunyu couldn't help laughing and said: "Your son came here a few days ago. Why did you come here? Are you trapped by the magic circle outside and lost?"
Li Tiangang's face was slightly pale, but looking at the kind smile on the other person's face, he felt a little hope: "Yes, this junior is stupid and trapped by the magic circle. I don't know if he can offend my son, senior." Everyone, I am willing to apologize to you on my son’s behalf. Even if it costs me my life to uphold the laws of the Ji family, I will never resist. I just want to bring harm to my wife and children. I beg you, senior, to spare Qingqing and my son Li Hao.”
"Li Hao?"
Ji Yunyu was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately, and he stared intently: "Did you just say that you are Qingqing's husband?"
Li Tiangang's face changed when he heard the sudden coldness in the other party's words. He didn't know which of his words he said was wrong. He felt uneasy and said: "Exactly."
"You said your son is Li Hao?"
"...Exactly."
"Nonsense!"
Ji Yunyu's face suddenly darkened and he said, "Think about it again, what is your son's name?"
"My son..." Li Tiangang felt a little ridiculous. Do he still need to think about his son's name?
“Let me ask you, Ji Leping, do you know?”
Ji Yunyu stared intently and said, although he felt strange in his heart, he suddenly thought that there might be many reasons why the child changed his surname to follow his mother. Besides, the man in front of him was in the Fourth Realm, so there was no need to pretend to be stupid and die.
"Ji Leping..." Li Tiangang was confused.
Suddenly, an arrow that seemed to have been shot more than ten years ago passed through his mind and hit him suddenly.
At a sunny moment, in the courtyard, when the woman's pregnant belly was swollen, she said softly:
"Husband, if our child is born, let's call him Leping, Li Leping, how about it?"
"Okay, it's all up to you..."
Leping, Leping...
Li Tiangang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he felt his heart trembling. He thought again of what the second sister-in-law had personally admitted in the interrogation hall after the father-son battle.
Give poison.
And at the end of the real dragon battle, during the confrontation in the courtyard, the young man spoke with certainty, I remember everything from childhood to adulthood!
It turned out that he really remembered everything.
However, no one mentioned this matter since Li Hao was given a name. Even if he remembered it, from whom did he know it?
Could it be that what his wife whispered while holding the child was also remembered by him?
Li Tiangang's whole body was trembling slightly, feeling incredible, but at the same time, there was a tearing pain in his heart.
It's Ji Leping, not Li Leping. Has the child already changed his surname to his mother's?
He gritted his teeth slightly, but knew that this was not the time to argue about this. He came here just to let Li Hao go back safely, so he forced a smile and said:
"Yes, this is my son's nickname."
"Really your son?"
Ji Yunyu stared.
Li Tiangang said quickly: "There is absolutely no lie. I know that my marriage to Qingqing has broken the rules for the nobles, but I am willing to bear the responsibility. I hope you will not embarrass them."
Seeing that his attitude was serious and not lying, Ji Yunyu's expression softened and she chuckled:
"Don't be nervous, just come in with me first."
Li Tiangang was relieved when he saw that the other party's attitude had improved, but he was still uneasy. He had heard from his wife countless times about the strict rules of the Ji family.
I also deeply understand that unless I have the strength of the real person from Qiandao Palace, I can come to the Ji family to ask for someone, otherwise I will die.
It's just that things have come to this, and he has to come.
"Yes, senior."
Li Tiangang lowered his head and walked over.
Others were a little surprised and surprised when they heard that the other party was really Ji Leping's father. They kept looking at him, wanting to see what kind of person that Taoist father was, who could actually cultivate such a monster genius.
After entering the secret realm of the Holy Land, Li Tiangang was immediately shocked when he saw the magnificent Holy Mountain and many floating islands in front of him.
He finally knew that what his wife said about how dangerous the Ji family was was not empty talk.
Is this the ancient saint clan in the wilderness?
Li Tiangang's heart was beating wildly, and he felt that his hope was even slimmer.
He gritted his teeth slightly, feeling small and powerless, a feeling that he once hated so much.
He was so powerless over his father's death.
He was also so powerless when it came to the deaths of his brothers.
After succeeding his ninth brother to inherit the True Dragon, he guarded Yanbei for more than ten years. When his wife left, he was still so powerless.
Now, he felt it again.
This feeling of hopelessness and powerlessness.
"Don't be nervous, your son is fine here, and Qingqing will be released soon."
Ji Yunyu couldn't help but smile slightly and said with relief when she saw Li Tiangang tensing up and looking downcast.
Li Tiangang's heart was shocked, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at him in shock: "Senior, are you serious about this?"
"Of course, your son is the genius of our clan!"
