He really cannot threaten this mercenary since for him personally, the action is not punishable by death. However, the rest might not think the same especially Gao Lan Mei. Xi Jun personally does not trust Gao Lan Mei, not only because she is a woman, but also because the information that they have with her is totally different from what they have seen so far.
For him, she is like a totally different being that is too gifted for her own good, making anyone feeling cautious around her. It also concerns him that he cannot feel any spiritual energy from her.
Li Shao only grinned, "You are not interested to know more about me?" asking casually, playfully even. His tone so welcoming that makes Xi Jun more annoyed.
"No need to ask, since you are in a good mood to tell us, right?" Xi Jun retorted sarcastically.
Nodding his head in agreement, "Surname Li, given name Shao," he paused, then frowned, when Li Mao looked at him with surprise, "What?" he asked.
"What is your father"s name?" Li Mao asked, remembering a cousin that she had not seen for a while, though she not sure yet.
Then she moved closer to Li Shao, looking closely at him with narrowed eyes, "You father is Li Guang!" then she suddenly blurted out.
"What are you talking about? I am not his son!" he denied indignantly. His father is already a wanted criminal so there is really no surprise if these Keepers is looking for him.
The surname Li is very common, especially on the Mortal Domain. How would he know that someone would notice his similarity to his father? Even with Keepers, Li has used a lot a fake name.
"Why are you lying? Your father is my cousin. My name is Li Mao." she stated with wrinkled brows, unsure if she should be happy that Li Shao is a relative or not based on the man"s reaction of denial.
Li Guang is a free-spirited man that loves to travel a lot. Li Mao is pretty much sure if Gao Shen will meet the man, they will instantly become best of friends.
Not only the man is talented and good-looking, but Li Guang is also very mischievous by nature. He is the type that will surely have a new lover after visiting a new place.
"Are you one of his children?" Li Mao asked carefully, afraid to hurt his feelings.
The only reason that she can think of when a child denounces the parent is that of shame. Perhaps, Li Shao is one of Li Guang"s b.a.s.t.a.r.ds?
Gritting his teeth, as Li Shao is aware of his father"s endeavors, "He married my mother." he said with confidence and a hint of sadness, raising his chin like he is proud of it.
Though his mother threatened the marriage, it"s still legal and binding.
It is normal for a typical husband to have more than one wife. However, for Li Shao, he is not even sure how many does his father have. Since he was seven summers, he had not seen the man again.
Li Mao coughed lightly, then she smiled apologetically to Li Shao, "Though you are family, you understand that I cannot just free you. You understand our way, right?" she asked.
Nodding his head, "Yes. My mother is a Keeper too. I learned everything mostly from her." Li Shao uttered, whispering under his breath.
After hearing this, Li Mao is satisfied. Then facing, "Mei"er, I would like to explain to you how our customer work. Would you like to hear it?" she asked.
Many believe that Keepers are the type of cultivators, like Tamers for beast or Casters for magic, however, that is not the case.
Keepers are race, a lineage, as old as the world that they currently live in.
