Li Xiaoyao was not a person who would waste time. Since he had already decided to leave with Ling 'er, he did not stay any longer. He directly pulled Ling' er downstairs to find his aunt.
At this moment, Auntie Li apologized to Granny Wang and Liu Sangu," My two elder sisters, I'm really sorry about today. I thought that so many guests came for a big order, but who knew that they were here to cause trouble? I actually wanted the two of you to show up. I can't bear to do this. I still have a few jars of aged wine here. You can take them home and give them to the men."”
Grandma Wang and Liu Sangu smiled and took the wine generously.
Li Xiaoyao came downstairs at this time. When he saw this scene, he asked curiously," Aunt, who are Grandma Wang and Aunt Liu?”
"In the past, there was an extremely famous organization in Jianghu called the Three Heroes of the Central Plains. My two elder sisters and I were the Three Heroes. When we were young, we thought that we could occupy a place in Jianghu just because we were strong. However, we later realized that we were too naive back then. The Jianghu was sinister and unpredictable. After you were born, something happened to your parents. I was planning to retire, so I brought you to this small fishing village to make a living. My two sisters also came with me and sold wild vegetables to make a living.”
Li Xiaoyao was shocked when he heard this. Although he knew that Auntie Li was not an ordinary person, he did not expect her to be so famous in the Jianghu. However, since his aunt had decided to retire, he did not pursue this topic. Instead, he pulled Ling 'er over and stood beside her.
Auntie Li chuckled and said," Ling 'er, Zhao Ling' er, you're really famous. This girl is really handsome. There's a hint of spirit in her innocence. It's really our family's blessing to marry Xiaoyao.”
Ling 'er smiled shyly.
" Aunt, Ling 'er and I plan to discuss with you about sending her back to Nanshao," Li Xiaoyao said.
" Sigh," Auntie Li sighed." Forget it. I didn't plan to let you live in this small fishing village for the rest of your life. You've grown up and your wings have hardened. It's time for you to go out and make a living. I won't stop you if you want to send Ling 'er home, but there's something you must remember!"”
Auntie Li's voice was firm. Li Xiaoyao immediately nodded solemnly. Then, he heard her say," In the martial world, the most important thing is to maintain your reputation. If you encounter someone stronger than you who wants to deal with you, you must protect yourself and the people around you before fighting with the other party. But if you can't win, don't force yourself!”
"You have to remember that there are many people around you who still need you. Therefore, you have to endure and survive. When your strength explodes one day, you can get back the face you lost in the past. Xiaoyao, you have to always remember one thing. In the martial arts world, heroes do not ask for a way out. No one will remember the grievances you have suffered in the past. Everyone will only see your achievements today. Therefore, you must not be as domineering as you were to Elder Shi today. Then can you really defeat Elder Shi?”
Li Xiao Yao shook his head awkwardly.
"Carefree, remember, take a step back when you need to. When your strength has reached a certain level, bully those who bullied you back one by one.”
His aunt's words were very realistic, and Carefree remembered them in his heart, especially the phrase " A hero does not ask for a way out." He would never forget it.
After she finished speaking, she returned to her room and took out a secret manual from ancient times and a rusty iron sword. She handed it to Carefree." Carefree, this Long Flying Cloud Scouting Hand is the unique skill that your father used to become famous in Jianghu. This iron sword was also used by your father. If you want to travel far, take it with you. Even if you don't need it, it will be something to remember!"”
"Auntie, I know. I...。”Although Li Xiao Yao had only been in contact with his aunt for a few days, he had developed a very strong kinship with her. At this moment, he was actually very touched.
"Alright, brat, don't be so wishy-washy like an old lady. Walk steadily. Remember to protect Ling 'er's safety on the way. I'll stay here and watch over this tavern for you. When you and Ling' er come back, I still have to carry your child for you!”The aunt laughed and patted Carefree's shoulder.
"Yes!" Li Xiaoyao nodded. After cleaning up with Ling 'er, they came to the entrance of the tavern. Li Xiaoyao said," Aunt, I asked Wang Xiaohu and Xiulan to take Anan out to play. I won't say goodbye to her. She's still young. If she knows that I'm leaving, she'll probably throw a tantrum again. If you have time in the future, teach her a few moves so that she won't be bullied."”
" Alright, I understand. Just go," Auntie Li said. She then passed a piece of paper to Ling 'er mysteriously and muttered to herself. Ling' er's face was flushed red, which made Li Xiaoyao curious. He asked what the paper was, but Ling 'er refused to say anything.
Li Xiaoyao and Ling 'er bid farewell to their aunt and walked towards the port. Aunt Li looked at the sky and went to Wang Xiaohu's house. She asked Wang Xiaohu," Xiaohu, where's Anan? Carefree said that he would be in your care for a while.”
When Wang Xiaohu heard this, he immediately shook his head and said," No, Xiaoyao left the little girl in my room for a while. The little girl said she wanted to go home and left a long time ago. She's not with me at all."”
His aunt was shocked and wanted to find Xiaoyao to tell him the news, but Xiaoyao and Ling 'er had already boarded a merchant ship heading to Suzhou.
At this time, the huge merchant ship was sailing. It was noon, and the sky was clear and the sun was high. The wind was gentle and beautiful. The sea breeze made people feel like they were floating. Li Xiaoyao and Ling 'er leaned on the deck and talked to each other.
In fact, the distance between the fishing village and Suzhou was not far, but it was not close either. It could not seem very far just because they could only take the water route. After a few hours, the sky gradually darkened. Just when they were about to reach Suzhou, a sound of breaking air suddenly came from the sky. Li Xiaoyao looked up and saw a few sword lights flying in the air.
"Are they from Mount Shu?" Li Xiaoyao thought to himself. However, at this moment, a sword light suddenly stopped halfway in the sky. It turned around and flew directly towards the merchant ship that Li Xiaoyao and Ling 'er were on.
