Chapter 146: Decision!

  Under the bright moonlight, Qin Li suddenly let out a breath. A pair of eyes gradually regained their natural luster and followed Qin Li's body, slowly dispersing outward.

  Dust Yihans living next door, was practicing qigong, his mansion, did not have the luxury that ordinary people imagined, and even had very few servants. Dust Yihans remained a bachelor all his life, in his eyes, there were only two words: Cultivation!

  Just now, he suddenly startled, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the courtyard of the young marquis next door, with an incredible look in his eyes.

  Just at that moment, he felt a vast aura, like a sea of smoke, coming from over there, but without the sharp and suffocating feeling that a top-level warrior's aura would give. On the contrary, it made one feel an inexplicable sense of closeness.

  This realm is what Dusty Cold has been pursuing all along, but has never reached!

  And yet, his opponent, a teenager of just over ten years old, had actually reached such a state, how could he not be shocked?

  A surge of unwillingness flashed through his mind, but immediately, a wry smile spread across Dusty's cold lips. It seemed that in this world, there indeed existed such super geniuses!

  Otherwise, he really didn't know how to explain the changes on that young master's body.

  At sixteen, he was only six years older than Feng!

  Chen Yi Han sighed, suddenly thinking of Qin Li's battle against the mysterious island visitor. With ease, he defeated his opponent. Now that he thinks about it, Qin Li was completely confident at the time! Otherwise, how could he have made such a bet? Not only did he and Old Yi, those so-called top-level masters, not see through it, but even the mysterious island visitors didn't see through it either!

  Qin Li, however, easily established his position in the Azure Dragon Country with that one battle, becoming an idol in the eyes of those genius students at the Advanced Academy.

  At this thought, Chen Yi Han let out a soft sigh and said to himself: This young man is exceptional in both intellect and martial arts. He's probably even more outstanding than those geniuses from the mysterious realms. It seems that the next few decades will be his stage! And in the annals of history, there will be a brilliant chapter written about this youth!

  How enviable!

  Dust Cold shook his head, closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.

  Qin Lishun walked out of the backyard and saw that Buxiaoyan's room was still lit up. He hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and knocked gently on the door.

  "Who?" A soft and gentle voice echoed, belonging to Bu Yunyan.

  "Bo Jie, it's me."

  "Ah, it's you, young master, I'll open the door for you."

  The door opened, revealing Bu Yunyan's delicate face, and upon seeing Qin Li, a joyful smile spread across her face. Although they lived in the same compound every day, Qin Li was a recluse who rarely showed his face, while Bu Yunyan occasionally had to go to the store to take care of business. Therefore, opportunities to see Qin Li were not that many.

  "How did you think of coming here?" asked Bùyún Yān in a soft voice.

  After being together for so long, Bai Yunyan couldn't understand why Qin Li didn't comprehend his feelings towards Shang Guan Shi Yu. Occasionally, she would feel ashamed of her own behavior, thinking that she was doing the same thing as the woman who had taken her father away from her all those years ago.

  It wasn't until now that she finally understood, emotions are actually selfish. Even if she understands, she is still unwilling to let go, she doesn't need to be the only one in this man's heart, as long as she has a place in his heart, she will be content.

  So, by now, Bu Yunyan's hatred for her father has already faded a lot. Whether it was indifference or coldness, she is no longer an innocent child and has long since gained a clear understanding of the world's complexities.

  "After a while, I will make a trip away from home and take the opportunity to see if I can find those spiritual medicines listed by Leng Yao." Qin Li said directly without hiding anything.

  Since it's already been decided, let's just go ahead and do it!

  "Huh? You want to go to that place?" Baiyunyan's face turned somewhat pale, and a hint of desolation flashed in her eyes. Then she covered it up with a smile and said: "Young master, with your current strength, can you guarantee that there won't be any problems if you go to that place?"

  Qin Li shook his head slightly and said, "Even if I broke through to the Heavenly level later on, it's not necessarily possible for me to return unscathed from that place. My body can wait, but my heart cannot! There is the woman I love most, there is my mother, no matter what, I must go! Moreover, you can rest assured, my strength has already broken through the Heavenly level, and just now, I have gained some insight. I believe that the day when I enter the Broken Sky realm will not be too far away."

  "Really! That's great." A smile finally appeared on Bùyún Yān's face, and then she gazed at Qín Lì with a gentle expression, saying softly: "Yún Yān has no other wishes, only hoping that the young master can bring Miss Shàngguān back safely."

  Qin Li nodded silently and then said: "I came to find you today, actually there's another thing"

  "What's wrong?" Bu Yunyan furrowed her delicate eyebrows, looking at Qin Li in confusion.

  "I may have news about your father." Qin Li looked at Bu

  "What" this, how is this possible?" Bu Yunyan felt her heart suddenly tighten, with an unspeakable feeling spreading throughout her body.

  "Don't be in a hurry, whether it's true or false is still unknown," Qin Li comforted. "Your surname, is it the same as your father's?" Bu Yunyan nodded silently and said: "Although my mother told me from childhood that I have her surname, but I actually knew long ago that my mother doesn't have the surname Bu! So, this surname of mine should be my father's."

  "Ah, the vice president of Imperial College, and also the most likely candidate to succeed as president, with the surname Bu, named Bu Tong. Qin Li said in a low voice, then continued: "Actually, when I first saw him, I felt strange, your eyes are particularly similar to his. Although he is now middle-aged, it can be seen that when he was young, he should have been very handsome and talented. If he were twenty years younger and stood with you, people might even believe you're siblings."

  "If he wasn't a talented and handsome man, how could my mother have loved him to the point of life and death? She waited for him in hardship for many years, only to die young."

  "Step-sister, don't you want to see him in person? Don't you want to ask him face-to-face about what happened back then?"

  "Sir, don't say any more, it's meaningless. After a while, when you leave, I'll return to Huangsha City! The Daqing Gang needs one of our own people, although Leng Ping is loyal, but I think my life should also have a brand new goal! I want to fulfill the promise I made back then, to establish a huge business empire! Recently, I've been thinking about this issue too, even if you don't leave, after a while, I will bring it up anyway."

  Qin Li let out a sigh, and somewhat understood some of Bu Yunyan's thoughts. He nodded and said: "If you like it, go do it! I support you! However, for you to just go alone like this, I'm not too at ease. How about this, let Ah Hu follow you instead? The medicinal herbs needed for Leng Yao's alchemy are quite common anyway, so just give them to Xigua."

  Bu Yunyan nodded and said, "Let Ahu follow me too. Hehe, young master, don't worry, the government officials look down on you, but I'll establish a super powerful business empire right under their noses! Squeeze them to death!"

  Qin Li smiled: "Don't play too much, the Upper Official's family has several old monsters with heavenly-level strength."

  "Hehe, young master's words, don't let Miss Shangguan hear them," said Buxiaoyun with a smile, seemingly restored to her usual cheerfulness. But who knows if it's really like that?

  "She wouldn't care." Qin Li said casually, but didn't notice that in the depths of Bu Yunyan's eyes, there was a hint of melancholy.

  "Alright, Po sister, I'll go back to cultivate first. You go out and return, but you must work hard to cultivate. Remember, our ultimate goal is not in this mundane world! So, don't abandon the fundamental for the trivial. Also, remember to take care of yourself and protect your body."

  Qin Li's gentle words brought a warm feeling to Yunyan's heart, and she said softly: "I know, I didn't expect you to be so considerate of others. Let's go quickly, or else someone will be moved by you and offer herself to you!"

  Qin Li smiled bitterly and backed out, closing the door behind him. Bai Yunyan leaned against the door, two lines of clear tears streaming down her face.

  Does she really not care about anything? Doesn't she long for fatherly love?

  But in this world, nine out of ten things don't go as planned. Even if she cares, even if she strives for it, what's the use? Will there be any result?

  Forget it! After some days, leave Qinglong City and put all thoughts into realizing one's lifelong wish!

  Bù Yún's heart was filled with thoughts of smoke and clouds.

  "Master Hou, Master Hou! Something's wrong, Master Hou, you must come out quickly!"

  From the gate, far away came the shouting of Doudou, Xiaoyao's face was anxious as she ran inside, the people below naturally all recognized Doudou, because she originally lived here and wouldn't be stopped by anyone, they were just curious, this girl who was usually calm and composed, why today was so flustered.

  Qin Li's figure seemed to descend from the sky, appearing beside Duo Duo, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened? Don't worry, take your time, I'm here."

  She took a few violent gasps. Her flushed face was covered in sweat, and then she said: "There's a group of rich kids who came to our store, flirting with us, after Boss stepped out, they turned their attention to Boss, and then wanted to take Boss away. Among those people, there was one who was particularly formidable, exuding an aura that made us not even dare to move, Boss wasn't a match for him either. I still felt something was off, so I ran out of the back door."

  "I understand," Qin Li said, and his body suddenly disappeared into thin air.

  The stunned and bewildered servant searched for half a day before asking the servants in the courtyard, "Just now, was Master Hou speaking to me or was I hallucinating?"
