Chapter 357: Chapter 356: the Magnanimous Old Master Li
Translator: 549690339
The Sky had just brightened when old master Li woke up early because of his excitement. In fact, he had slept late last night because of his excitement. However, in the morning, the tiredness in his body could not conceal the excitement in his heart.
However, when he walked out of the room and into the living room, he realized that he was not the only one who was excited.
The second and third children had been waiting in the living room with their children since a long time ago, their faces full of antic.i.p.ation…
Of course, there were more people than just his two children. Previously on the phone, that girl Jiayi had also said that she was bringing the younger generation to show the sect master their apt.i.tude.
Everyone who had read Qidian literature knew that in cultivation, people paid attention to apt.i.tude. In order to increase the probability of the Li family’s children being valued by Jiayi’s teachers and elders, he had basically informed all the children of the collateral line.
This included the children of his elder brother and two younger brothers…
Of course, if he wasn’t afraid of being too exaggerated, he even wanted to call his relatives even further away.
In his heart, as long as there was an extraordinary person in the Li family’s bloodline, it would represent the interests of the Li family!
But regarding this point, Li Guoshang’s son and daughter were very dissatisfied with their father’s decision.
Previously, Jiayi had said on the phone that she wanted to go back and ask for a quota, which meant that there was a high possibility that the quota was limited.
With the Quota Limited, the more people who partic.i.p.ated, the lower the possibility of their children being selected. If it were anyone else, they would not be willing.
However, their grandfather’s situation was the entire Li family, which made them very helpless…
“Second brother…”just as Li Guo Shang walked into the living room.., sitting on the sofa, an old man with a square face and looks somewhat similar to Li Guo Shang said to Li Guo Shang with a serious expression, “The things you said to us on the phone weren’t just for fun, right?”
“Am I that boring?”Li Guo Shang rolled his eyes at the other party before slowly walking to the sofa and sitting down. The surrounding juniors were very well-behaved as they stood in a circle outside. Even though there were still many empty seats on the sofa.., however, there were still only the four old men sitting on it.
The old man who had spoken earlier looked at Li Guo Shang. His expression slowly turned from a stern one to a gentle one, there was a complicated look in his eyes as he nodded and said, “If this matter is true, you have done it perfectly. To be honest, if it were me, I might not be able to split my own child’s chances like you did for the Li family…”
After pausing for a moment, he said with a solemn expression, “It seems that father was not wrong to pa.s.s the family business to you back then…”
When the old man said this, the remaining few people, including Li Guo Shang, were stunned for a moment. Back then, the old master had mainly given the Li Group’s family business to his second son, Li Guo Shang, and did not choose to let his eldest son inherit the Li Group, this had always made the boss very dissatisfied.
Even though the Li group had almost doubled in size in Li Guo Shang’s hands, he still expressed his dissatisfaction. However, this was only human nature. After all, everyone in the world would think that if he went up, he would also do well. Moreover, he would definitely do better.
However, he did not expect that this Li Guo Yan, who had been in conflict with Li Guo Shang for his entire life, would finally relent when he was ninety years old.
Li Guo Shang’s mood immediately became a little agitated. To be honest, to be able to make his big brother, who had hated him for his entire life, say such words, it was really not a waste of his final decision…
The other two old men at the side also nodded when they heard this. Although they were not convinced of their father’s favoritism when they were splitting up the family, they were still convinced of Li Guo Shang’s absolute position this time.
This decision indeed had the bearing of the head of the family…
The older generation was convinced of each other, so the younger generation was naturally different.
The group of young people all had a fake smile on their faces as they sized up their peers around them. Before they came, the elders had already told them that there was a quota limit, so they knew that they were all compet.i.tors, even if they used to be on relatively good terms with each other. At this moment, there was an inexplicable estrangement between them as they talked…
Transcendence…
The Li family’s disciples did not practice martial arts very much, but their yearning for transcendence was real. Not to mention other things, just the fact that those cultivators could live for so long already made them unusually motivated.
After all, who among the rich and powerful did not want to live a little and have more time to enjoy themselves?
“Big Brother only brought two children?”Li Guo Shang looked around and was surprised to find that the Li family only brought a man and a woman, two juniors.
He had a deep impression of these two children. The man was called Li Zhu and was one of the most outstanding children of the third generation of the family. He had a high talent in internal martial arts and was currently trained under the Grandmaster of internal martial arts, Feng Guo Sheng, at such a young age, he seemed to have already reached the realm of internal force. Elder Feng had even taken him to Quan Zhen sect to study under him. Unfortunately, he was rejected.
Elder Feng had even said that if he partic.i.p.ated in the sect’s ritual fairly, there was a high possibility that he would be accepted into the sect. Unfortunately, even the newest Yunshan sect only recruited children and rarely recruited people.
Now that there was such an opportunity, the Li family’s eldest master naturally would not miss it. This person was also the person that the surrounding juniors feared the most because the advantage was too obvious. After all, most of the juniors present did not practice martial arts. Even if they did, they would not have such good apt.i.tude as Li Chong…
The second girl was called Li Xiaoxin. Li Guosang had a deep impression of this child. Of course, this was not like Li Chong who had a deep impression because of her apt.i.tude. On the contrary, she might be the one who was the least likely to be selected.
This child was the daughter of the youngest son of Li Guo Yan’s family. She was the youngest granddaughter of the eldest brother. As the youngest in the family, she was originally very favored. Unfortunately, she had contracted leukemia at a young age. Moreover, it was a more complicated M-5 type.
Those who had some medical knowledge knew that at this stage, among the acute leukemia types, only the M-3 type had a high chance of being cured. The other types had to be transplanted as soon as possible after induction chemotherapy.
Unfortunately, the little girl’s type physique was relatively rare. Even though Big Brother had used a lot of connections, he still could not find a bone marrow type that matched his granddaughter. And now, the little girl who was almost eight years old… Seemed to have reached her limit…
Li Guoshang looked at the chubby girl who was now as skinny as a stick when she was born. There was a trace of pity in his eyes. He looked at his big brother and said, “Big Brother… What are you…”
“I heard that some sects are good at refining pills, and there are precedents of curing cancer in Kunlun. Today, I have a rare chance to go to an immortal sect, so I’ll have to trouble second brother to help my granddaughter ask if there’s a chance to be cured…”. “No matter what the result is, I owe you a favor!”
Li Guoshang sighed slightly when he heard that, but there was a hint of hesitation on his face. They had gone there to beg the immortal sect to take in a disciple. Under such circ.u.mstances, he did not want to cause any trouble, in case he offended the immortal, it would not be worth it to affect the sect’s impression of the Li clan.
Although he also pitied this child…
Just as Li Guo Shang was hesitating on how to politely decline the other party, the butler in charge of his villa suddenly trotted in and whispered to Li Guo Shang, “Master, Miss Jiayi has arrived…”
Everyone’s hearts jolted when they heard this, and they thought to themselves, the main character has finally arrived… …
