Tang Rao's swagger is so big, even he is scared by it.
"Since you've said it, let's do as you suggested. The Li Family has fallen. Once the new ho is built, let's rena it to the Tang Family."
If it weren't for Tang Rao, the Li Family would be finished. For Li Zhentong to make Tang Rao rena the newly built house to the Li Family, wouldn't that chill Tang Rao's heart?
"Whatever, it doesn't matter to ."
The na doesn't an much to Tang Rao. What's truly important is for everyone to recognize him, for Tang Rao to beco the representative of the Li Family and subsequently of the Kao Shan Sect. That's what Tang Rao is eager to do right now.
"Then I'll trouble my father-in-law to prepare a hundred skilled carpenters for . I'll give them the plans first so they can build according to them."
The structure of the Forbidden City has always been the style Tang Rao longed for. It looks grand and atmospheric, aningful and splendid.
Then have soone make him a Dragon Chair. In the days to co, the freedom would be unimaginable.
"Alright, I'll handle it right away and get this done imdiately."
What Li Zhentong says goes. The whole Li Family is like they've just erged from bathwater. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't even have ti to cry, but who knew Tang Rao and Li Zhentong already had a rescue plan.
Tang Rao had it all figured out. The first phase would involve building the parts of the Forbidden City where they would live, followed by the second phase, which is where the brothers would reside.
The Kao Shan Sect is expanding, and the current residence only houses about twenty people, which feels cramped. He envisioned the current place as temporary housing. Once the second phase is complete, they would all be moved back, providing Liu Da and others a better living environnt.
"Tang Rao, I was really scared out of my wits just now."
When Li Zhentong went off to busy himself with Tang Rao's requests, and seeing no one else around, Li Qi Qi approached Tang Rao and hugged his waist, still a bit shaken by the earlier events.
"I was worried about you too. As long as you're all in one piece."
Tang Rao didn't know how to comfort Li Qi Qi. Those mushy words make him cringe just at the thought, let alone saying them to Li Qi Qi's face.
"What do you an by 'as long as you're all in one piece'? Tang Rao, don't you know how to care for won?"
Tang Rao's concern warms Li Qi Qi, but the way he shows concern seems a bit peculiar.
Maybe Tang Rao didn't have other won around him before, so he doesn't quite know the kind of words girls like to hear?
Thinking of this, Li Qi Qi finally felt a bit reassured.
"Qi Qi, what happened yesterday was just the beginning. Those arsonists will return. Try not to go out during this period. If there's any danger, contact with this."
Tang Rao retrieved a pair of Illusion City glasses from the Space Ring.
It was the first ti Li Qi Qi had seen sothing like contact lenses.
"What are these?"
Soft and seemingly fragile.
"Open your eyes, and I'll put these on you. You can ask Liu Da tomorrow about how to use them and let him teach you."
If Tang Rao had to teach each person individually how to use it, he might as well beco a training instructor.
"Rember, in case of danger, send a ssage inside this first. Even if I can't return, soone will save you."
Li Qi Qi is disadvantaged because, despite having a special constitution, she has never found a suitable ntal thod for her to train with and lacks self-preservation skills.
If Li Zhentong hadn't hidden Li Qi Qi on an island, she might have lost her life long ago.
"Okay, I've got it."
With Tang Rao's house still untouched by the fire, Li Qi Qi returned to her room, and Tang Rao went back to his room. Without Li Qi Qi around, Tang Rao doesn't have to hide his actions.
He extended his hands, and from the palms of his hands, the black mist naturally spilled out.
"Luckily, I'm the source of this Evil Physique, or I'd have been done for in the first round by that idiot Leng Pengfei."
Looking at the swirling black mist, Tang Rao still felt a bit of fear.
"But this black stuff, I still don't recognize it."
Tang Rao only knows that after refining part of it, his body feels energized, but whether it harms his body after it's refined as part of him is still undetermined.
"Of course it doesn't harm you. If it were harmful, would your body absorb it so easily? Would you willingly eat poop?"
Jixing appeared out of nowhere. Though its words were crude, they weren't without reason.
"Yeah, but what if you didn't know it was poop? Wouldn't you eat so by mistake?"
No, Jixing felt it was really not suited to be with Tang Rao. Talking with Tang Rao muddles its own thoughts.
"Just pretend I didn't say anything. I was wrong, I shouldn't have discussed this with you."
After speaking, Jixing automatically hid itself.
Whether it spoke or not, it didn't seem to make much difference, did it?
Forget it, Tang Rao's strength improved after refining the black mist, so there shouldn't be any issues. Even if sothing went wrong, Jixing wouldn't just watch Tang Rao die.
If there were a problem, Jixing would have already warned Tang Rao to stop refining.
In one night, the Tingzhou Li Family was burned to ashes, and the next day, the entire Divine Realm heard the news.
The ones most worried about Tang Rao were the Wen Family and the brothers of the Kao Shan Sect.
Mr. Wen, concerned that his Alchemist might be in trouble and he wouldn't have any way to show off anymore, rushed over as soon as he heard the news. anwhile, the other judges were afraid of attracting attention and dared not openly connect with Tang Rao.
Fortunately, Fan Hua had so sense. He didn't show up in person but sent his left and right-hand n to specifically express their condolences to Tang Rao.
Upon hearing the commotion outside, Tang Rao ca out to find rows of people waiting.
"Mr. Wen, Liu Da, Zhang Wang, why are all of you here?"
Today isn't a festival, and with so many people visiting Tang Rao, he's not planning to cook for them.
"Boss, you're not dead?"
As soon as Zhang Wang spoke, Mr. Wen gave him a smack.
"You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting? Don't you know how to talk?"
Only Mr. Wen dares to lay a hand on Zhang Wang, and Zhang Wang wouldn't retaliate.
"Sir, I an, we're all here to check on the boss, we're all family, would you dare say you're not worried about the boss?"
Mr. Wen paused for a mont.
"I worry about it in my heart, at least I didn't say it out loud, did I?"
As soon as Mr. Wen said that, there was a collective dismissive sound from the crowd.
"I know you all wanted to see if I'm dead or alive. Now that you've seen I'm not dead, can you leave?"
Anyway, Tang Rao doesn't have much of a good image among these people. When they see him staying at soone else's house, they probably won't give it much thought.
"Boss, how can you say that? We're not just here to check if you're dead or alive."
Wen Lei spoke up, "Boss, the dicine you gave last ti really worked. Can you give so more?"
