Chapter 712: Chapter 212: A Masterful Move, Seizing Every Advantage, Ascending to Third Grade

The long-legged beautiful woman couldn’t hold back anymore and cried uncontrollably.

"But...

but..."

Li Ping’an clenched his fists, "I don’t think Dad is dead, he...he wasn’t dead before, was he?"

He excitedly grabbed the woman’s shoulders, eyes wide open, and gasped, "Aunt Yao, tell me, Dad is not dead!

Dad must not be dead!

Back then everyone thought he was dead, but he just used the Golden Cicada’s Shell.

It must be the same this time too, it must be!"

Gu Yaojue also started crying, she shouted to the sky, "Master, master...if you are really faking your death, give us a sign so we don’t have to be so sad.

Master... master!"

She cried out fiercely.

Li Ping’an cried loudly as well.

Cui Huayin said calmly, "Enough."

Gu Yaojue fell silent immediately.

Li Ping’an, with red eyes, looked sideways and said, "Third Lady, how can you say enough?! You...you don’t have any feelings for Dad at all?! You..."

Cui Huayin coldly glanced at him and said, "Now that the world is reunited and order is being restored, we need to return to Divine Wood Hall, will you come?"

Li Ping’an, breathing heavily, waved his hand fiercely and said, "I’m not coming! I won’t come!"

Cui Huayin asked, "Then where are you going?"

Li Ping’an said harshly, "It’s none of your business!"

But as he turned his head, he suddenly saw his wife, son, and daughter behind him, and their expressions of sorrow and anger froze again.

He realized that he was still just a child.

But clearly, he already had so many children.

He wasn’t a good father, nor was he a good son!

He looked towards his wives, squeezed out a smile through his tears, and said softly, "You follow Third Lady and Fourth Lady back to Divine Wood Hall, at least it’s a bit safer there... I, I have some opportunities, and I’ll come back once I’m stronger."

Liu Liuxue said, "We will be with you, wherever you go, we will go."

Li Ping’an said gently, "First go to Divine Wood Hall, then... I will return. I promise..."

With that, he didn’t wait for anyone else’s response, turned around, and rushed towards the distance, disappearing in a few leaps.

"Husband!"

"Daddy!!"

His wives and children called out after him.

But Li Ping’an didn’t turn back.

Immediately, many cries rose again.

After a long while, Cui Huayin finally said, "Have you cried enough?"

Liu Liuxue stepped forward and said, "Third Lady... we..."

Cui Huayin said, "Ping’an will be fine, let’s go back to Divine Wood Hall first."

She glanced at Gu Yaojue, and their eyes seemed to be conveying some message, then they both looked towards the direction Li Ping’an had left, and then simultaneously withdrew their gazes.

"Let’s go... to get to Divine Wood Hall, we still have a long way to go," said Jing Shuixiang.

Gu Yaojue suddenly said, "Let’s walk slowly, if Ping’an regrets it, he might catch up with us."

...

...

Li Ping’an was disoriented, charging forward like a madman, not knowing how many times he fell or how many times he fell off a cliff.

His whole body was filthy as he ran to the place of cultivation, shouting around, "Master!! Master!!!"

After shouting for a while, a gentleman with a gentle complexion and a flower crown on his head walked out.

"Master!!"

Li Ping’an knelt down, hugged the man’s leg, and wailed loudly.

The gentleman suddenly asked, "Is your father really dead?"

"Master, you know too, my father... my father..." Li Ping’an couldn’t continue.

Su Mushen gently stroked his hair and said, "How did he die, tell me about it in detail..."

Li Ping’an took a deep breath, sat aside, and slowly recounted.

Su Mushen asked about many details, being a true old fox, he quickly deduced the truth. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

The existence known as Li Yuan should have confronted the hidden forces in the Western Pole.

And he made a decision to merge with Withered Fire.

If successful, he would have the power to fight against that force.

If failed, it was also an olive branch, at least allowing his friends and family to retreat safely.

Unfortunately, how could Withered Fire be fused by humans?

Borrowing fire to shape a new body is already a Celestial Soul Cultivation Method, how could it be merged?

Su Mushen gently shook his head and sighed, "Your father was a hero of his generation. Even in death, he left behind his legend, a legend that will be sung and passed down for thousands of years."

He closed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Ping’an, did you know that actually... all the methods of the Divine Wood Hall have problems?"

"Huh?"

Li Ping’an was taken aback, not knowing why Su Mushen suddenly brought up this issue, but soon he recalled, "My father also said, so he asked Third Lady, Fourth Lady, Aunt Yao, and the others to stop cultivating."

Su Mushen said, "You can ask them if there is such a place where they can fix these problems and walk the true path of Human Soul Cultivation, would they be willing to go."

"Huh?"

Li Ping’an was taken aback again, "What place?"

Su Mushen said, "East Sea Immortal Realm, a place rich in yin and yang.

The Five Elements Forces merely originate from there, I too originate from there.

By the way, all the legends about the super forces on this continent also originate from there.

Now, I want to take you all there, to join my Sect — the Supreme Profound Sect."

Li Ping’an was left speechless for a long time.

To be honest, he did not doubt the words of this master in front of him in the slightest.

After more than a year of getting along, he fully understood how terrifying Su Mushen was.

In Su Mushen’s eyes, whether it was him, Third Lady, or Fourth Lady, they were just ants.

However, Li Ping’an still hadn’t figured it out, he stammered, "Master, why did you suddenly say these things?"

Su Mushen smiled and said, "I just think that a character like Li Yuan should shine upon future generations. This... is my respect for him, I suppose."
