487: Chapter 131 Li Muxuan, Matters of the Older Generation
Regarding the matter of Master Li taking on a successor mentioned by Xu Si, Meng Li didn't pay much attention, only relaying the information to Lu Linglong.
Because he didn't even know who the other person was.
Upon hearing this, Lu Linglong's expression became worried.
That Master Li, full name Li Muxuan, was of the same generation as her great-grandfather Lu Jin, but the two sides had a grudge, a deep grudge enough to fight to the death.
With Li Muxuan taking on a successor, others might not say anything, but Lu Jin would definitely go to seek revenge.
Lu Linglong had seen Li Muxuan's strength with her own eyes back on Nason Island; he was very strong!
If the two were to fight to the death, Lu Linglong couldn't guarantee her great-grandfather would win.
Therefore, she briefly explained the situation and took her leave.
Meng Li didn't stop her.
Seeing this, Xia He said softly, "This is a good opportunity. This great-grandfather Lu Jin holds a very important place in Linglong's heart. If you can help Old Master Lu at a critical moment, she might just offer herself to you."
"Do you want to give it a try?"
Meng Li shook his head, "Not interested."
"Not interested?" Xia He raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "She is quite stunning after her recovery."
"Her figure looks even better than little Chen Duo's."
Chen Duo, who was sitting on the sofa playing Pokémon, paused. She subconsciously looked at her own figure, then recalled Lu Linglong's, and suddenly felt that the game in her hands wasn't fun anymore, involuntarily casting an annoyed look at the culprit, Xia He.
Xia He noticed Chen Duo's gaze and said with a smile, "Little Chen Duo, don't be angry, your foundation is very good."
"Let Meng Li develop you a bit more, and you'll soon surpass Lu Linglong."
Chen Duo glared at Xia He, lowered her head, and continued playing the game, but her cheeks couldn't help flushing red.
Seeing this, Xia He's smile became even brighter.
Meng Li saw it all but didn't take it to heart.
Xia He had teased Chen Duo more than once; not to mention him, even Chen Duo was already used to it. She would act angry on the surface, but wouldn't take it to heart.
Afterwards, Xia He tentatively asked Meng Li, "How about I also hold a successor-taking ceremony?"
Meng Li glanced at her sideways, "Suit yourself."
Xia He was so annoyed by his indifferent attitude that she gritted her teeth, "Would it kill you to show you care about me a little?"
Meng Li thought for a moment and replied, "You are not allowed to do it, or I will kill you."
Xia He was instantly happy. She wrapped her arms around his neck from behind, breathing hot air into his ear and cooing, "As you command, my master."
Meng Li was accustomed to her daily antics and couldn't be bothered to respond.
Chen Duo looked up once and then continued playing her game.
Although she had a substantial relationship with Meng Li and enjoyed intimate contact with him, she couldn't be as clingy as Xia He.
Xia He didn't feel bored seeing Meng Li didn't respond; instead, she was very happy because of his words, clinging to him and acting spoiled until she received two slaps and finally settled down.
But before long, she poked her head out again while Meng Li was looking at a message.
The message was from Ding Shanan. He said he would go to see Li Muxuan taking a successor. Additionally, Na Ruhu would also go, and even the Old Celestial Master would be present as a witness. He asked if Meng Li wanted to join in the excitement.
Meng Li was a bit surprised.
Even the Old Celestial Master would go to be a witness?
What kind of background does this Li Muxuan have? He has quite a lot of Face.
Meng Li asked Ding Shanan directly.
It turned out that Ding Shanan said he didn't know too clearly either.
He only knew that Li Muxuan was once a member of the Quanxing, nicknamed "Evil Child." His ability was previously called "Reversing Eight Directions," and is now called "Human Magnet." The specific effect is to create a special "field" within the range around his body and to manipulate the direction of Internal Energy within that field.
Meng Li was slightly stunned.
Because Li Muxuan's ability was the same as Xu Xiang's.
In addition, Ding Shanan also said that the Old Celestial Master going to the scene as a witness probably wasn't for Li Muxuan's Face, but because of Lu Jin.
He had asked around; it was said that Li Muxuan had a grudge against Lu Jin's Sect, the Sanyi Sect, in his early years. Later, he took the former Sect Head of the Quanxing, Rootless Life, to cause a scene at the Sanyi Sect. The destruction of the Sanyi Sect was inextricably linked to this incident caused by Li Muxuan and Rootless Life.
Lu Jin regarded Li Muxuan as the enemy who destroyed his Sect.
This time, with Li Muxuan taking a successor, Lu Jin would most likely seek revenge and fight him to the death.
The Old Celestial Master going to the scene was likely because he was worried about Lu Jin having an accident.
Speaking of this, Ding Shanan also revealed a piece of gossip: It was said that the previous generation of Celestial Master of the Celestial Masters Residence felt Zhang Zhiwei was too arrogant and once thought about finding him a Dao Companion, with Lu Jin being a candidate. But in the end, it didn't happen because the strength gap between Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei was too wide, and they couldn't complement each other.
Seeing this news, before Meng Li could react, Xia He, who was peeking at the screen from the side, exclaimed, "Lu Jin was a candidate for the Old Celestial Master's Dao Companion?!"
"This, this..."
Meng Li glanced at her, "What's there to be surprised about?"
"Isn't this worth being surprised about?" Xia He asked back.
As she spoke, she seemed to think of something, and her eyes began to wander over Meng Li.
Meng Li immediately understood that the pink-haired vixen had misunderstood. He raised his hand and slapped her on her voluptuous lower body, then said irritably, "I can tell at a glance that you've never seriously learned about matters of cultivation, your head is full of smut."
"The Dao Companion Ding Shanan mentioned isn't the kind of relationship you're thinking of, but refers to a partner who is equal in strength on the path of cultivation and can help each other."
"For instance, Ding Shanan and Na Ruhu."
Xia He suddenly realized, and her Face felt a bit hot.
It wasn't because she was hit or called out for having a head full of smut, but because she felt a bit like an illiterate.
But soon she didn't care.
She was an Innate individual; her abilities were born with her, no need to study specially, so it's normal for her to lack understanding of cultivation matters.
Thinking this, she continued to peek at the screen.
Seeing this, Chen Duo was also attracted over.
At this moment, Ding Shanan asked Meng Li again whether he was going to witness Li Muxuan's successor-taking ceremony.
Xia He said thoughtfully, "This Ding Shanan seems to really want you to go to the scene. What's the situation? Did you provoke him?"
Meng Li shook his head, "No."
"I reckon he probably wants to let Na Ruhu spar with me, and maybe even wants me to wrestle with the Old Celestial Master."
Xia He was stunned, then thought about Ding Shanan's deeds and smiled, "This is indeed something a martial arts fanatic like him would do."
"Then are you going?"
