Follow the path of Dao from infancy - Chapter 100
Chapter 100: Chapter 88 Sensation_2
After all, with a talent like Li Hao’s, even in the Li Family, where geniuses spring up like bamboo shoots, he is an overwhelmingly dominant presence.
“Hao Er is extraordinarily intelligent, beyond the imagination of ordinary people, not just a typical genius,” said Li Muxiu with a smile.
Li Tiangang came back to reality, startled, and said, “But isn’t it said that Hao Er’s meridians are blocked?”
He is Li Hao’s biological father, the news he heard couldn’t possibly be false.
There’s no need to hide it from him, right?
Besides, Li Hao has his mother’s bloodline; such a condition is not impossible.
“Indeed, the meridians are blocked.”
Li Muxiu sighed, “That’s what makes it terrifying. According to Hao Er himself, he suddenly broke through the blockage in his meridians in a dream. I’ve researched this and found it’s a case of pseudo-meridian closure, not completely sealed. This kind of accident is tens of thousands of times rarer than a pure meridian blockage. After all, many children from ordinary families inherit impure blood over the generations, with quite a few cases of meridian blockage.”
“He was around six or seven years old when his meridians became unblocked.”
Meridian blockage in an ordinary household is not uncommon, but it is rare in the Divine General Mansion.
Li Tiangang’s eyes widened in shock.
Accustomed to the battlefield, he had seen countless scenes of sword glints and bloodshed without batting an eyelid, but now, he was so astonished he couldn’t speak.
Does this not mean that Li Hao only began his cultivation at the age of six or seven?
Without Foundation Establishment, without Blood Melting, yet in just seven years, reaching the Fifteen Li Realm?
And from what was understood before, Li Hao was not serious about his cultivation on a daily basis, played around everywhere, and barely trained seriously…
No wonder, even his second uncle refers to it as “terrifying”!
Li Tiangang had thought the most monstrously talented genius he had seen was his ninth brother, but now he realized that even he paled in comparison to his own son.
This is his son!
Li Tiangang’s body trembled slightly, his heart unable to hide the excitement.
Yu Xuan was so astounded that he couldn’t find his words.
The seemingly lazy young master was this formidable?
Seeing their reaction, Li Muxiu showed a proud smile, enjoying the look of someone who has not seen the world before.
I shouldn’t be the only one, along with Feng and the fifth brother, to be shocked.
“Where’s Hao Er?”
Li Muxiu looked around.
Still excited, Li Tiangang said, “Hao Er should be in his courtyard.”
Li Muxiu nodded and smilingly said, “I came here firstly to see you, and secondly, I have some matters to attend to. Now that you’re back, I can go handle them with peace of mind, and leave Hao Er in your care.”
“Given Hao Er’s cultivation level, he’s already capable of wandering the Jianghu, he hardly needs my care.”
Li Tiangang said with a laugh.
Li Muxiu’s smile faded slightly, and he glanced at him meaningfully, saying, “No matter how strong he is, he’s still a fourteen-year-old child.”
When I said ‘take care of him’, I wasn’t worried about him being bullied, but rather about him being left alone, do you understand?”
Li Tiangang was stunned, the smile on his face gradually fading into silence.
Is it companionship?
Suddenly, he remembered Li Hao’s recent questions.
“What if I now do as you wish, aiming single-mindedly for the title of Grandmaster? What then?”
“If I were to be the once in a millennium genius, what then?”
Li Tiangang couldn’t help but take a deep breath, his expression changing.
Apparently, what the child wanted to say was, if he performed so well, what would he get from him?
Praise from his parents or their companionship?
Thinking of his fourteen years fighting in Northern Yan, Li Tiangang silently sighed, feeling somewhat guilty: he indeed had been neglecting his duties as a father.
He said to Li Muxiu, “Second Uncle, I understand. I will take good care of Hao Er and make up for the years of absence.”
Li Muxiu’s face beamed with a smile, “Alright, I won’t say more. I’m going to take a look at Hao Er, then I’ll be on my way.”
“Second uncle, may I ask what matter you are going to handle?” Li Tiangang quickly asked.
“A meeting with an old friend, to discuss a matter of rain,” said Li Muxiu with a smile, then waved his hand and turned to leave with an air of nonchalance.
…
…
Li Hao returned to his own courtyard.
Upon entering, a white fox named Xiao Rou leaped out from nowhere and plunged into Li Hao’s arms.
Coming back to himself, Li Hao realized what was happening and smiled, hugging the white fox and stroking its fur on the head, saying:
“Where did you run off to earlier, why didn’t I see you around?”
The white fox looked at him with a pleading gaze, unable to speak, just burying its head in Li Hao’s embrace.
Li Hao didn’t think much of it, taking the white fox and sitting down at his desk, he glanced at the chessboard beside him. He casually picked up a piece from the chess case, fiddling with it between his fingers, leaning back in his chair with an air of idleness, looking out the window.
Suddenly, a figure jumped outside the window, startling Li Hao.
“What are you doing here, lad? Didn’t the fifth brother come to play chess with you?”
It was Li Muxiu who had come.
Li Hao was taken aback for a moment before he came to his senses and smiled, “Second Grandfather, are you free? Let’s go dragon fishing.”
Li Muxiu looked at him with annoyance and said, “Fish for what dragon, can you even catch one? Your father’s back, and you don’t spend more time with him.”
Li Hao’s lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled, “Last time I managed to catch a lesser dragon, next time I’m sure I can catch a real dragon.”
“You wish, last time was just dumb luck like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse!”
Li Muxiu gave him a look and then said, “I’ll be away for a while, if you want to go fishing, find your Uncle Feng. Don’t go alone if you can help it. There’s an old dragon in that lake I haven’t located yet, and although you’re at the Fifteen Li Realm, it’s still a bit dangerous for you.”
Li Hao smiled and said, “Alright.”
…
Meanwhile, at the Eternal Spring Court.
“What?!”
In the main hall, He Jianlan’s teacup fell to the carpet, soaking a spot, with tea leaves scattering.
