Chapter 193: Chapter 14 Repaying the Li Family's First Act of Kindness (7K Double Chapter)_4

This is none other than the foremost among the ten great famous swords!

Its reputation and status even surpass Eternal Night. After all, Eternal Night was forged for a decade but was unsheathed for only three years before it was sealed again.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Soar Sword passed through the hands of several powerful individuals in the Dayu Dynasty, has been forged for hundreds of years, and was once the companion sword of a Sword Saint.

"Indeed, it's a fine sword,"

Li Hao tapped lightly on the blade and seemed to hear a low, dragon-like roar—an aura of murderous intent that made him feel the chilling sharpness.

After examining it a moment, Li Hao sheathed the sword and handed it back to Ren Qianqian.

Ren Qianqian, hanging her own sword by her waist, took it with both hands, her eyes revealing surprise and excitement.

She had heard of Dragon Soar's renown—a top-tier famous sword. Her father had never even had the chance to glance at it, yet now she had touched it.

"The meat is ready, let's all get ready to eat,"

Li Hao said with a smile.

Li Hongzhuang and Li He came back to their senses, their expressions complex. At the same time, a figure appeared silently—it was Feng, who had just left.

He didn't show much concern about Li Hao receiving a reward, merely glancing at Dragon Soar before pulling out a wine gourd, ready to eat and drink.

That evening,

Li Hao copied a total of 124 Cultivation Techniques that he learned at Listening Rain Tower, the sum total of the Li Family's techniques he had encountered. The ones he copied were all advanced versions after his own deductions.

The inferior versions he had learned once were now returned as superior ones; Li Hao believed he had returned them with ample interest.

Besides, he wrote three Peerless Techniques after entering the Grandmaster Realm, combining the understanding of the essence of all things that came with his self-cultivation.

He packed these three Peerless Techniques along with the others, a gift to the Li Family.

However, learning these three Peerless Techniques wouldn't be so easy; there was a prerequisite.

After finishing the writing,

Li Hao handed them to Song Qiumo, entrusting her to deliver them to the nearby city of Liangzhou, to replace the local Li Family's stationed army, and have them send the package back to the Li Family.

...

...

A few days later,

In Qingzhou City, in front of Divine General Mansion,

Several jiao-lions galloped over, these creatures being hefty enough to carry seven or eight people, and some had large bundles tied on their backs.

The leading person jumped down from the jiao-lion, presented his identity token to the gate guard, and whispered a few words.

Soon, the message was conveyed to Mountain and River Courtyard.

In the study, Li Tian Gang was scrutinizing interrogation results with a dark expression, his eyes flickering.

Just then, a trusted aide came in and reported the situation outside the mansion.

Li Tian Gang was taken aback and suddenly slammed the table, exclaiming angrily, "He's returning the Li Family's first favor? What does he mean? You say he sent back many Cultivation Techniques?"

Seeing the trusted aide nod, Li Tian Gang's face turned ashen as he said, "Bring everything in. I want to see how he has returned them!"

Soon, the large bundles from the jiao-lions' backs were delivered into the courtyard.

Besides the bundles, there was also a letter.

Yu Xuan handed the letter to Li Tian Gang, who casually opened the bundles and saw they were all filled with books.

Li Tian Gang then opened the letter and saw several lines of elegantly and neatly written words.

The handwriting was clearly superior to any of theirs, the warriors.

After reading through it, his expression turned sour.

With a wave of his hand, he fetched several books and quickly flipped through them.

The Cultivation Techniques in the books were all written in the same handwriting, all by the same person.

After finishing one book, he picked up another and continued through several.

The courtyard was silent as the grave, utterly still.

Zhao and Li Fu both stood to one side, their faces filled with worry.

"Good, very good!"

After looking through several manuals, Li Tian Gang's eyes were filled with anger and shock.

The few cultivation techniques he casually picked up were all of superior quality, just like the letter said!

Not only did the other party return the cultivation techniques, but they also returned them with interest, exceeding the amount owed!

In total, 124 manuals.

Moreover, there were three peerless techniques.

Li Tian Gang found it hard to believe that his son had actually learned so many cultivation techniques!

Over a hundred!

How could he have learned over a hundred in just fourteen short years?

While practicing so many varied cultivation techniques, how could he manage to raise his cultivation level to the Fifteen Li Realm? And even attain an epiphany to become a Tianren Grandmaster during a battle with him?

At this moment, Li Tian Gang's heart couldn't help but waver slightly.

Such talent was unheard of, even a demon possessing someone may not achieve this level.

Could it be that he was really wrong?

Was he truly too harsh on him?

But soon, the memory of those cold eyes drawing a sword against him emerged in his mind, and the slight warmth in his heart quickly cooled.

His talent might be peerless, but that disposition was indeed not suitable to be the Li Family's True Dragon. If he could draw his sword against him, what about other members of the Li Family?

If he entrusted the Li Family to this person, he could not rest easy.

Right now, the Dayu Dynasty was in troubled times. He must steer this ship well, for any mistake could ruin a thousand years of glory and leave him without the face to meet his forefathers!

Taking a deep breath, Li Tian Gang picked up the rest of the cultivation techniques and started copying them down.

These techniques had names, and he gave the superior quality cultivation techniques to Yu Xuan to review, and the peerless techniques were for him to check personally.

With Yu Xuan's status and reputation, he couldn't easily access the peerless techniques.

Meanwhile, Li Tian Gang called several elders from Listening Rain Tower. These elders were bound to never leave the mansion for life. They were all outstanding members of the Li Muxiu's generation and cooperated with Li Muxiu on a daily basis to manage and look after Listening Rain Tower.

These elders were also the living dictionaries of the Li Family, their minds filled with many secrets of the family.

The cultivation techniques collected in Listening Rain Tower were also reviewed by them on a regular basis.

As the elders got involved, the other courtyards also received the news, and they couldn't help but feel surprised and astonished, hurrying to Mountain and River Courtyard.

In a day and a night, the elders had reviewed all the techniques, confirming they were all cultivable without any defects.

Upon hearing this news, Li Tian Gang's feelings were incredibly complicated, filled with shock as well as a sense of pride and happiness, and an indescribable anger.

And hearing what the elders said, He Jianlan, Li Xuanli, and others were stunned.

To collect so many superior cultivation techniques in one go was unheard of even for a Grandmaster. Besides dedicating their entire lives to deriving their own peerless techniques, deriving other techniques would take a considerable amount of time, and few would waste time doing such a thing.

The last time so many superior cultivation techniques were collected in Listening Rain Tower was a thousand years ago.

Back then, various sects caused chaos and violated the imperial laws. The imperial court dispatched their Divine General Mansion to clean up and suppress the sects, conducting a bloody purge that resulted in the one-time collection of hundreds of cultivation techniques, of which also barely amounted to a hundred superior ones.

And now, all these manuals were returned by Li Hao himself?!

Could it be that several Four Stands Realm strong practitioners helped Li Hao derive them?

What shocked them most was knowing that Li Hao had spent his years with his second uncle in Listening Rain Tower, where if he wanted to learn the techniques, he could. Being a direct descendant, there was no barrier to that.

But, Li Hao was just fourteen years old, and he had already learned over a hundred techniques from there, which seemed a bit too exaggerated.

Where could he replace so much time and energy!

"Tiangang, are you satisfied now!"

Li Muxiu was alerted and came rushing over. After understanding the situation, rather than showing any joy on his face, he looked at Li Tian Gang with an icy expression.

Hearing his words, the others also showed subtle changes in their expressions, considering the purpose of Li Hao's return of these cultivation techniques.
