Li Shouren was terrified. The two women of the Wu family were extremely terrifying. They dared to challenge Fan Qinghui. Even he did not have the guts to do so. Just now, he was just holding on at the Wu residence. He couldn't be scared by the people of Kind Boathouse. If the headmaster knew that he was scared, he was afraid that the headmaster Zhu Yuyan would abandon his Li family. Then, the Li family's status in Jiangnan would plummet, and there would be no chance of revival.
The Li family had relied on the support of the Demon Sect to gain a foothold in the Sui Dynasty, but now the Li family and the Wu family had tied their interests together. The profits from the saltworks alone were several times the original income of the Li family. They could not bear to part with it. This was the foundation of the Li family's rise. The Jiangnan family was different from the Guanlong family. Since the Northern and Southern Dynasties, they had been divided and had been assimilated by the Hu. That was why the Song family of the Southern Mountains resisted the invasion of the Guanlong Group into the Jiangnan Fortified Land. At the same time, the Demon Sect also secretly supported the Jiangnan family.
Li Shouren returned to the mansion and immediately reported the news. He was not worried that Kind Boathouse would harm the current Wu Residence. Before killing Wu Tian, Kind Boathouse would not dare to act rashly. Moreover, Wu Tian's performance today was too shocking and terrifying. It was impossible for a five-year-old child to have such monstrous talent.
Wu Tian was only five years old now, but his intelligence and strategy were already extraordinary. Even a smart person like Fan Qinghui had fallen into Wu Tian's hands and was seriously injured by him. Li Shouren had clearly seen the killing intent in Wu Tian's eyes, but he had concealed it. Clearly, Wu Tian had considered the consequences of killing Fan Qinghui. At that time, with Wu Tian's methods, it should not have been a problem. However, Wu Tian had thought of the safety of the Wu Residence in an instant, which was why he had seriously injured Fan Qinghui and immediately left the Wu Residence.
At such a young age, Wu Tian was as intelligent as a demon, and his attacks were ruthless and merciless. He no longer suspected that Wu Tian was the demon who had caused the phenomenon in the sky three years ago. It was no wonder that Cihang Jingzhai was so afraid of Wu Tian. Heavenly King Daowu had done something that left the Buddhist Sect with a lingering fear. They did not want a second Heavenly King Daowu to survive in the world.
After Li Shouren sent out Wu Tian's information in detail, he relaxed. In fact, Wu Tian's identity had been exposed, which was very beneficial to him. He had become the most popular person in the Yin Sunflower Sect. After all, he had formed a structure of interests with the Wu Residence. They would rise and fall together, and he could even pull Wu Tian to the side of the evil cult Yin Weed Sect.
Li Shouren drank a cup of Jiangnan's newly produced tea. This tea making method was also invented by Wu Tian. In the past, he had thought that it was Madam Wu and Miss Chen of the Wu Residence. Now, it seemed that it was not the case. It was the little demon Wu Tian who had created it. However, the new products like Jiangnan tea leaves had made the Li family spend a large sum of money. The reason why they dared to stand up for Fan Qinghui in the Wu Residence was because the Li family could not leave the Wu family. If they left the Wu family, it would be difficult for the Li family to rise.
Originally, Li Shouren wanted to marry the Wu family. He wanted to betroth his daughter, who had just been born, to Wu Tian. This way, the Li family could be more tightly bound to the Wu family. With Wu Tian's current performance, he seemed to be confident and was not worried about the Buddhist Sect hunting him down outside.
Li Shouren was very relaxed, but the Wu Residence was in an uproar. Groups of people surged. In the eyes of these orphans, Wu Tian was a god in their hearts. His wisdom was even more terrifying. He was as knowledgeable as an old scholar. Just Wu Tian's casual works,"Hundred Family Surnames" and "Thousand Character Classic", made people who had a headache about education call him a genius.
Especially Wu Tian's Hanyu Pinyin, which solved the difficulty of learning to read. Just these alone could make Wu Tian sit on the throne of the number one literary hero in the literary world. In the eyes of scholars, the status of a saint was comparable to Cangjie's creation of characters. Moreover, the Wu family also had the art of paper making and printing. These were the fundamental reasons for the rapid rise of the Wu family.
Chen Hui 'er stood in the courtyard and stared blankly at the north. At this moment, no one knew what she was feeling. Although Wu Tian was only five years old, his behavior was not what a minor should have. Instead, she treated Wu Tian as her confidant and placed all her heart on him. Wu Tian had left, and she did not know where home was. If the Wu family did not have Wu Tian, it would be equivalent to losing their backbone. They were at a loss and felt lost.
She didn't know if the heavens were playing a prank on her and her sister, Zhang Lihua. Since they had given the two of them hope, why would they give them despair? Although Wu Tian was smart and had a strong adaptability, from the performance of Kind Boathouse today, it seemed that not killing Wu Tian was not enough to appease the anger of the Buddhist Sect. Without seeing Wu Tian's corpse, the Buddhist Sect should not dare to do anything to the Wu family.
Chen Hui 'er secretly swore in her heart that if Wu Tian was really killed, she would take revenge on the Buddhist Sect, no matter what the price was. When Wu Tian was around, the house was filled with laughter and joy. However, after Wu Tian left, the Wu Residence suddenly became quiet. The sound of the children reading in the courtyard outside the wall could not be heard. The moonlight was still as bright as before, but it gave the Wu Residence a gloomy aura. They could not feel the clear and bright light, as if the Wu Residence was in darkness and could not see a trace of light.
Zhang Lihua walked out of the room and looked at Chen Hui 'er's lonely figure. Her heart could not help but ache. She knew the relationship between Chen Hui' er and her son. If there were no accidents, she would marry Chen Hui 'er when her son was young. However, her son had left unwillingly. What father? What War God Hall? Actually, she knew that this was a lie her son had made up. If there was a War God Hall, her son would have left long ago. Why would he wait until now?
Zhang Lihua had never felt the pain of losing a loved one. Now, she deeply experienced it. This kind of pain was like a knife cutting through your heart. In the past, she thought that her son had no parents and would be traumatized. Who knew that God would give her a son and at the same time, give him a divine light filled with wisdom. She knew that her son had left for her and Hui 'er. The Wu Residence would only be safe if her son left and avoided the pursuit of Kind Boathouse.
Zhang Lihua sighed in her heart."I hope what Tian 'er said is true and that such a wondrous knowledge exists.”She was a strong woman. She usually looked gentle and kind, but today, she revealed a trace of hatred, hatred towards the Buddhist Sect. Zhang Lihua had never hated anyone before, but today, she did. If it wasn't for the Buddhist Sect's oppression, her son wouldn't have left her to take revenge on her mother.
The mother was supposed to protect her son who had yet to grow up, but instead, it was the son who protected the mother. No one who had never been a mother could understand this kind of pain. Her heart seemed to be bleeding, and the kindness in her heart gradually disappeared. The Wu Residence could not sink into oblivion just like that. Since her son had handed over such a large fortune to her and Hui 'er, they should manage it well. They would kill anyone who stood in their way.
It wasn't until Zhang Lihua walked to Chen Hui 'er's side and gently patted Chen Hui' er's thin shoulder that Chen Hui 'er finally reacted. When she turned around, her eyes were filled with endless tears. It was said that women were creatures that were easily injured. At this moment, it proved that this was the case. Men bled, women cried, and it seemed to have been repeated for thousands of years.
Chen Hui 'er suddenly threw herself into Zhang Li Hua's arms and cried. The more she cried, the louder she became. Xiao Gui Zi secretly hid in a corner and wiped his tears. A fierce light flashed in his eyes. He hated himself for not cultivating his martial arts well. The Young Master had left for the Wu Residence. Whether he lived or died depended on the Young Master's fate.
He was a eunuch, but he had been by Wu Tian's side for five years. He had never seen anyone look down on him. Instead, he treated Wu Tian as a family member. Eunuchs were also a strange species. Ever since the emperor was born, eunuchs were born. They were very strange and extremely loyal to their masters. Because he was not a man, he cared very much about what others thought.
Wu Tian had given him a sense of home, which was why he swore to properly manage the businesses outside for his master. He had not been able to see through the things that his young master had instructed him to do in the past. Although he was puzzled, he now understood. He killed the midwife to hide his identity. If he didn't kill the midwife, he would have been exposed two years ago.
Chen Hui 'er wiped the tears from her face and raised her head. She said firmly,"Sister, I think the Wu Family should recruit more Jianghu experts. We thought that the Wu Family was aloof from the world, so we rejected Tian 'er's request. Now we realize that the experts we recruited are not able to compete with the Kind Boathouse at all. Without the participation of the Kind Boathouse, it is enough to protect the Wu Family's property. However, it was far from enough. If she did not have absolute confidence and absolute strength, Tian 'er would probably never return home.”
Zhang Lihua used a scarf to wipe away the tears on Chen Hui 'er's face. With a gloomy face, she said fiercely,"Elder Sister doesn't want there to be a next time. The Wu Residence was founded by Tian 'er, so no one can take it from my hands. Tomorrow, go and tell Zhang De that we will be recruiting experts, but they will be under our control. This is the token Tian 'er gave me a week ago. She said that no matter who the experts we recruit are, we should not be afraid. As long as we swear on this token, no one will betray us.”
Only now did Zhang Lihua realize her son's painstaking efforts. This token must have a very unique use. Otherwise, Wu Tian would not have given it to her, nor would he have lied to her. She used to think that her son was lying to her, but now she unexpectedly believed her son's words.
Since the heavens knew that she was the Stone Maiden, they naturally knew that she had no descendants. They pitied her tragedy, so they bestowed her with a son. Since the heavens had given her a son, they would not let anything happen to him. Of course, she had ways to protect her son and her safety.
Chen Hui 'er's eyes flashed with surprise as she said,""Sister, did Tian 'er really give it to you?" She could not believe that Wu Tian seemed to know more about the outside world than they did. However, Wu Tian had always been by her and Zhang Lihua's side. When she thought of Wu Tian's magical actions, especially in recent days, it was as if he was giving instructions for his funeral. Looking at the ancient and unadorned token, he understood that Wu Tian must have used some method to make people swear oaths and control them through the token.
This token was a slave token from the primeval era. It was a contract token specially refined by the dragon clan in order to subdue the four seas. Its purpose was to control all the experts who submitted to the dragon clan. However, Ancestral Dragon died in battle and was obtained by Ancestor Hongjun, who kept it in the Treasure Dividing Cliff. During the treasure distribution in the Zixiao Palace, no one cared about it. Moreover, Hongjun had merged with the Dao. The battle between Tiandao and Hongjun caused the Treasure Dividing Cliff to be injured and disappear into space. In the end, Wu Tian benefited.
