Chapter 175: You’re Bound with Yi Qinglan?!
In the Li family’s secret ground…
Li Ran looked at Li Wuqiang suspiciously. “Old Li, are you plotting against me again?”
Li Wuqiang continued to drink his tea. “Do you think that I’m just lying around and scheming against you every day? What is going on?”
Li Ran frowned and said, “What is the marriage ribbon? It feels strange.”‘
Li Wuqiang shook his head. “That was something that I obtained by chance. It seems to involve soul karma. I can’t see through the details.”
He looked at him curiously. “You didn’t use it already, did you?”
Li Ran said helplessly, “I just wanted to give it a try. I never thought that it would really succeed.”
He stretched out his right hand and saw a red line on the inside of his wrist, faintly discernible like a blood vessel.
Ever since the red ribbon had dissipated, such a thing had appeared on his wrist.
Li Wuqiang took a closer look and didn’t find anything unusual.
“Do you feel anything strange?”
Li Ran scratched his head. “I don’t feel anything, but it doesn’t seem right.”
Li Wuqiang said, “Don’t worry. This isn’t some evil thing. On the contrary, it contains some kind of good stuff. It’s definitely beneficial and harmless.”
“Oh, that’s good.” Li Ran heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter what, Yi Qinglan was there to care about him. If he really did harm her, he would feel bad.
Li Wuqiang raised his teacup and asked curiously, “Who did you use it with? That little girl from the Xiao family?”
Li Ran shook his head. “No.”
“Who then?”
“Yi Qinglan.”
Pfft!
Li Wuqiang spat a mouthful of immortal tea.
“Ahem! Yi, Yi Qinglan?!”
He looked at Li Ran in astonishment. “Are you talking about the Sect Master of the Tianshu Institute, that Emperor-level expert, Yi Qinglan?!”
Li Ran lowered his head. “Yes, it’s her.”
Li Wuqiang gulped and his head buzzed.
Li Ran and Yi Qinglan were tied to an A-list marriage?
This was too fucking bullshit!
He snapped back to his senses and asked nervously, “Does Yi Qinglan know about our relationship?”
Li Ran thought for a moment. “I don’t think so. I’ve never mentioned it to her before.”
Li Wuqiang heaved a sigh of relief and said with a serious expression, “Remember, don’t mention my name when you’re outside. You’re not my grandson and I’m not familiar with you.”
Li Ran covered his face and said, “Is that so…”
“Is that necessary? That is Yi Qinglan! If you want to die, don’t drag this old man down. This old man hasn’t lived enough yet!” Li Wuqiang opened his eyes wide.
Only then did Li Ran remember.
Yi Qinglan had a grudge against Li Wuqiang and seemed to have damaged his foundation.
“Don’t worry, Old Li. I will avenge you.”
“I thank you. Just stay away from me.” Li Wuqiang looked at Li Ran and his throat tightened. “You dare to provoke her? This… This little brat is really fat! How about I run?”
At this moment, outside the Li family’s residence.
The doorkeeper, Ding, was yawning in boredom when he suddenly opened his mouth.
One could only see a group of guards dressed in gold armor, majestically arriving in front of the gate.
Each and every one of them had burly bodies and solemn expressions. They had yellow ribbons tied around their necks, indicating their identities.
Royal guards!
The servant was stunned when he saw such a big show.
The guards stood on both sides, forming a passage. A golden sedan chair carved with a dragon slowly descended.
A young girl wearing a bright yellow flood dragon robe walked out.
She was wearing a light golden veil, and her face could not be seen clearly. Her every movement emitted an indescribable noble aura.
The leader of the guards shouted, “Princess Flood Dragon has arrived. Li family, receive the decree!”
“Flood Dragon, Flood Dragon Princess?!” The servant’s legs trembled in disbelief.
It’s actually her?
That was the Sheng Clan’s most famous third princess!
He trembled as he knelt on the ground. “This lowly one greets the Princess!”
Sheng Zhixia nodded. “Stand up, let’s go in and report.””
“Thank you, Princess.”
The servant stood up, pushed the door open, and rushed into the mansion.
After a while, the entire Li family became restless.
From the Clan Leader to the Elders, to the various Executors, they all came to the courtyard and looked respectfully at the young girl who had entered the courtyard.
“Clan Leader Li Daoyuan greets the Princess!”
“Greetings, Princess!”
Following Li Daoyuan’s greeting, everyone was about to kneel.
Although the Li family had the clan Emperor overseeing them, it did not mean that they could transcend the mortal world.
In the end, the Li family was still an aristocratic family living in the imperial capital.
To them, the Flood Dragon Princess was a huge person!
As a result, Sheng Zhixia’s sleeves surged with spirit energy. Everyone could no longer bend their knees and were unable to kneel.
Li Daoyuan was puzzled. “Princess, what do you mean?”
Sheng Zhixia smiled and said, “Li Ran is a hero of the human race. He is the Devil of the world. The people of the Li family don’t have to bow.
“Bring the things over.”
She waved her hand and the guards carried a huge plaque with a red cloth covering it.
Li Daoyuan said doubtfully, “This is…”
Sheng Zhixia said, “Emperor Sheng feels that Li Ran’s merits have been remembered. The Li family has cultivated such a hero, and they should enjoy an extraordinary honor.”
She reached out to remove the red cloth.
One could only see that it was a black plaque with the word ‘Li’ written on it.
The word was golden in color and contained the meaning of the Great Way. It was like a scorching sun that could not be seen directly.
Sheng Zhixia said, “This is the title of Emperor Sheng’s Imperial Brushwork. Officials from all over the court should pass by the door. Civil officials should get off the palanquin, and military officials should show their respect.”
“What?”
“Emperor Sheng’s Imperial Brushwork?”
“Oh my God!”
Everyone immediately went into an uproar.
Even Li Daoyuan was stunned.
The Emperor’s Imperial Brushwork?
This was the first time such a thing had been created. It was simply a supreme glory!
But he did not feel happy.
The Emperor’s heart was hard to predict. Today, he would praise you to the heavens, but tomorrow, he might turn you into meat paste.
Moreover, Li Ran’s identity was so special. He didn’t know if it was good or bad.
However, the item had already been delivered to him, so he didn’t dare to refuse it.
Li Daoyuan bowed with hands folded in front and said, “I thank the Emperor for his grace. I hope that the Emperor will be healthy and the Dragon Fate will be everlasting.”
Then, the elders walked over and carefully put away the plaque.
Sheng Zhixia walked to Li Daoyuan and said with a smile, “You must be Uncle Li, right?”
Li Daoyuan was taken aback. “Uncle?”
It was the first time the two of them had met, and there was a huge gap between their identities. This title was too close.
Sheng Zhixia said, “My trip was rushed and I didn’t have time to prepare anything. I’ve prepared some gifts. Please don’t take offense, Uncle.”
As they spoke, the guards brought over large boxes one after another, and the pearl-like energy inside was almost overflowing.
Obviously, they were all very valuable items.
Li Daoyuan scratched his head. Wasn’t this princess too polite?
Sheng Zhixia looked around, “Uncle, why haven’t I seen Li Ran? Is he not at home?”
Just as Li Daoyuan was about to speak, a voice sounded.
“Princess Sheng.”
Sheng Zhixia turned around and saw Li Ran striding over.
She was a little shy and surprised. “Sheng, Sheng Zi Li…”
Li Daoyuan frowned.
Why did he feel that something was wrong with the princess?
