Thanks to "Liuli Jin" for the reward, mwah~

*************************

Li Longyun rambled on for quite a while, the old Clan Leader seemed indecisive, but in reality, he had already made up his mind.

Li Longyun felt there was an opportunity, after all, this body belonged to the old immortal’s only son, losing a son would surely hurt, right?

Continuing to act pitiful.

The old Clan Leader’s expression changed, yet he said nothing and went out directly.

Li Longyun explained a lot, but he didn’t really see it as a reason.

He’s not a fool; many words have flaws.

And if it had been his son, would he have been so useless?

Even though there was a gap of two minor ranks between him and his son, his son would never have been captured so easily.

All in all, it’s still about being soft-hearted.

In a situation of uncertainty, he couldn’t bring himself to kill.

That face which was identical to his son’s, the same body, how could he bring himself to do it, it was the child he raised himself.

At this moment, the old Clan Leader’s back seemed slightly hunched.

After all, it was his only son. Letting him out was not an option, being of the Demon King level, his release would still pose a great threat.

From then on, the old Clan Leader took charge of the affairs of the White Wolf Clan. Li Shuning never saw that Li Longyun again, and no one asked about it.

She also breathed a sigh of relief.

At least the sword hanging over her head was slightly moved away.

The old Clan Leader later secretly tested the bloodline of Li Shuning and the others, comparing it with the essence blood left by his son, finding they were related, he relaxed a little, but his doubts increased.

In the following years, he spent his time on Li Shuwei and Li Shuning, of course, seeing Li Shuhui being well-behaved, he also taught him.

In the plot, the old Clan Leader fell due to an attack by the Demon Clan, but this time it didn’t happen.

Li Shuning, however, received news that the Human Clan previously sought to cooperate with the White Wolf Clan, and upon refusal, went to the Giant Tiger Clan instead.

The Giant Tiger Clan agreed, and their Clan Leader improved his cultivation after consuming the prepared elixir pills.

However, the Humans and the Giant Tiger Clan took the Black Jade Lotus Seed painstakingly cultivated by the Demon Clan, which greatly angered them.

This time, the entire Demon Clan moved out, concealed their presence, and ambushed the Giant Tiger Clan.

The Giant Tiger Clan Leader was severely injured, and within the clan, many tigers were either hurt or killed, suffering heavy losses.

The Humans, on their side, remained unscathed.

"Grandpa, do you think the Humans did it on purpose? With so many factions among the Humans, why don’t they collaborate amongst themselves and just have to involve our Demon Clan? It feels like they want to weaken us so they can control the upper hand," Li Shuwei analyzed.

Li Shuning, however, clapped her little hands: "Thankfully, Grandpa didn’t go; otherwise, it might have been our White Wolf Clan suffering heavy losses, that Venerable is really annoying."

The old Clan Leader patted Li Shuning’s head, but he too felt a bit of lingering fear: "It might not have been intentional, they wouldn’t dare. They mistrust each other, preferring to trust a demon clan with common interests over their own kind."

If it weren’t for Shuning’s reminder that day, he would have gone.

Li Longyun constantly urged him to go; was he also part of it?

In a few years, Li Shuwei hadn’t progressed much, now being an Eighth Rank expert.

Li Shuning, though, had caught up.

With her spiritual power as guidance, her cultivation seemed like a cheat, being only six but already a Seventh Rank expert.

Moreover, Li Shuning’s spiritual power had also improved.

Li Shuning thought, maybe one day she could hypnotize Li Longyun, get him to reveal his origins, and then Grandpa should be able to deal with him. But in this world, spiritual powers, or soul-related cultivation methods or divine skills are very rare.

With Li Longyun’s matter, the old Clan Leader would surely have some doubts about them.

Previously when the old Clan Leader took her essence blood, she simply pretended not to know.

No need to overdo it.

The three kids were cultivating, and the old Clan Leader was also cultivating. Recently, Yang Tiantian hadn’t seen Li Longyun, and inexplicably felt relieved.

She was aware of Li Longyun’s changes, but her heart still held a hope that the man who was once a hero would return.

Yang Tiantian recalled how that man tried to hit Li Shuning, and how her son got in the way and was injured, and she felt deeply saddened.

That was their shared child.

Yang Tiantian didn’t want the children to worry, so she forced herself to get better and started cultivating too.

However, one afternoon, a woman’s arrival broke this peace.

A human woman arrived with Li Longyun’s token to the clan.

But how could a woman without any cultivation reach the White Wolf Clan?

The White Wolf Clan’s territory isn’t in any big city, it’s in the center of Anze Forest.

With danger everywhere here, how could a mortal come this far?

The old Clan Leader and Li Shuning were present, the old Clan Leader’s face looked grim.

The woman was crying softly.

It wasn’t long before Li Shuhui arrived.

Seeing Li Shuhui, the woman suddenly rushed forward, hugging him, leaving Li Shuhui completely stunned.

"Child, my child, Mother misses you so much, boohoo."

Li Shuhui stiffly looked at the old Clan Leader.

The old Clan Leader sighed: "Hui’er, she is indeed your mother."

Back then, Li Longyun brought the child back, intending to bring the woman over; the old Clan Leader only kept the child, having looked into the woman, her background was clean.

Yet today, she had come here on her own, was her background truly clean? Something seemed off.

Yang Tiantian’s expression was cold, feeling that her son being so young already having a child out of wedlock was a blatant slap in the face. Normally with Li Shuhui, she wouldn’t be cold but not particularly warm either. Seeing this woman, she felt quite unhappy.

The woman cried for a long time before stopping.

The old Clan Leader directly asked: "Ye Lian, is it?"

Ye Lian nodded: "Father."

The old Clan Leader twitched his face upon hearing "Father", restraining himself, he didn’t say anything.

"How did you get here?"

Ye Lian began to cry again, after a long while, seeing the old Clan Leader growing impatient, she finally spoke: "Brother Yun used to visit me in the Human Clan often, but it’s been years since he last came. People in the village bullied me, I was so scared, Brother Yun told me before that if something happened, to find Spirit Void Sect, give them this token and it’d help me."

"Then I had the Spirit Void Sect send me to Brother Yun’s clan, I didn’t come on purpose, firstly I’m worried about Brother Yun, secondly, I was bullied; staying in the village anymore could lead to unimaginable consequences, I’m just a woman, if my chastity was ruined, what face would I have to see Brother Yun?"
