The commotion on Mount Lanke made this New Year in the Eastern Wasteland Domain even more lively.
Mainly because Little Li's daily special effects were incredibly loud.
The news that the inheritance of a mysterious powerful figure had appeared spread like wildfire.
New Years come every year, but inheritances are once - in - a - lifetime opportunities. So, the news spread from person to person, and even high - ranking sects from other places began to gather in the Eastern Wasteland Domain.
Of course.
If one could trace the source of the news, they would find that.
The news had become a big deal and initially spread from the Happy Sheep Hot Pot Restaurant.
At the Happy Sheep Hot Pot Restaurant.
Several elders of the Qingyuan Sect were sitting around the hot pot.
"My unfilial disciple left a letter saying he'd come back after the New Year," Shang Wu said, crossing her arms and angrily throwing the letter on the table.
"Well, it's for the best. Recently, the Purple Sun Prefecture has been in turmoil. The people who come to challenge the two of them have almost worn out the threshold," Elder Xue sighed.
The elders were originally going to go home for the New Year, but now, with the increasing commotion on Mount Lanke every day, they couldn't leave.
"What kind of strange phenomenon was there today?"
"The sound of phoenixes singing in harmony. Now, we don't know who the owner of the inheritance is again."
"Yesterday, I guessed it was the inheritance of a Buddhist powerful figure, but it's different today."
"We can't figure it out, we really can't!"
"This is definitely a muddy water."
The people of the Qingyuan Sect hadn't decided whether to get involved in this muddy water yet.
After all, just the major sects they knew about that had come numbered no less than five, all of which were major sects in Zhenzhou, comparable to the Hengyun Sword City.
Moreover, it was not ruled out that there might be hidden sects coming.
There was even the figure of the Demon - Summoning Sect!
But with the strange phenomena shaking the heavens and earth every day, they really itched to go and take a look.
At this time, the door was pushed open.
The elders were startled and looked at each other, looking a bit awkward.
It was Elder Qian.
They hadn't invited him to have hot pot...
"Actually, we planned to invite you today, but..."
"Let's talk about the hot pot later," Elder Qian said angrily.
"Hmm?" Elder Xue Jing and Elder Hanhe glanced at each other, realizing the seriousness of the matter. Old Qian didn't even care about the hot pot. What was the difference between this and Shang Wu not caring about not being invited to drink?
It was probably something bad again.
Elder Qian said,
"Today, a captain of the Sky - Patrol Guards came to our sect."
Ordinary Sky - Patrol Guards were at least at the Inner Realm, and they were much more powerful than ordinary Inner Realm cultivators.
The captain must be at the Outer Realm.
It was rarely a good thing to be approached by the Sky - Patrol Guards...
Shang Wu narrowed her eyes: "Should we... find a way to take him out..."
As she said, she made a slashing motion across her fair neck, with a murderous look in her almond - shaped eyes.
"Take him out my foot. He brought a message from the Crown Prince,"
"Li Mo and Ying Bing, the two latent dragon prodigies, have made great contributions to protecting the country. The Crown Prince, Jiang Yu, will come to the Qingyuan Sect after the New Year to reward the prodigies of the Great Yu."
"????"
Clang -
A plate fell to the ground.
Jiang Chulong stood there stupidly at the door, looking like she'd lost her soul.
...
As the New Year approached, it snowed heavily in Qinghe County.
The world was covered in a vast expanse of white, quiet and beautiful. Every household was decorated with lanterns and festoons, adding a touch of joy and celebration to the snow - covered landscape.
The streets were bustling with carriages and horses, and every family was preparing New Year goods.
Li Dalong and his wife were sitting in a carriage, having just made a big purchase from the market. They could have sent someone to do it, but they felt that the New Year wouldn't be the same if they didn't do it themselves.
"Brother Li, Sister - in - law, you've bought so much?"
As soon as they reached the street of the Li Mansion, a man came towards them.
"Old Tian? Little Mo and Bing'er are back. Things are different now. I've told our relatives and friends not to come and pay New Year visits, to keep it simple. But they insisted on coming. Oh, well, haha..."
Comrade Li Dalong pretended to be modest but was actually very proud.
The middle - aged man, Old Tian, had always been secretly competing with Li Dalong.
They didn't get along when they were both county officials, mainly because of different ideas.
"Tsk tsk, latent dragon prodigies are like figures in the clouds," Old Tian said with a smile. Instead of getting angry, he unexpectedly praised them.
But then he changed the subject:
"When my two grandchildren grow up a bit, I'll have to come to your place shamelessly and ask your prodigies to guide them in opening their spiritual veins."
"?"
Li Dalong and his wife looked at each other and were a bit stunned.
Old Tian lifted the curtain of the carriage, and two young people were sitting inside, each holding a baby.
"Come on, call Uncle Li. Uncle Li is generous. Call him and you'll get a red envelope."
"Um... hehe, Happy New Year."
Li Dalong's face stiffened a bit, and he took out a red envelope from his bosom.
Unexpectedly, Old Tian was so cunning. After getting the benefit, he still showed off:
"Tsk tsk, one grandson is enough, but they gave birth to a dragon - and - phoenix pair. Oh, I'll have a lot to worry about in the future. I'll be driven crazy by these two little ones."
"Hey? Your two..."
Li Dalong said expressionlessly:
"Yes, indeed. Recently, there has been a lot of commotion on Mount Lanke. I don't know how many people are flocking there. Our Qinghe County has become quite a mixed - up place. We need to pay more attention to public security."
"???"
Li Dalong got back into the carriage. He was very annoyed at being shown up by Old Tian.
He looked at his wife and found that she was looking out of the window, staring blankly at the happy family entering their home together.
The couple looked at each other, and their expressions were a bit complicated...
They originally didn't think much of it and had been on high alert recently, but after being shown off by Old Tian.
Both of them started to yearn for grandchildren.
But Little Mo and Bing'er were at a crucial stage. They couldn't bring it up. They couldn't just tell them not to compete for the Latent Dragon Ranking and just stay at home...
"Let the kids handle their own affairs. We'd better not worry too much, or they'll find us annoying," Li Dalong sighed and shook his head.
"Yes, we should let nature take its course, but can we... give them a little nudge?" Gu Xueqin couldn't help but say.
"Getting married doesn't necessarily mean having children right away..."
The couple returned to the mansion but didn't see the two kids who had made them feel so complicated. So they asked the maid:
"Where are Little Mo and Bing'er?"
"They said they went out for a stroll on the street."
On the other side.
On the streets of Qinghe County.
The snow - covered streets were filled with the sound of falling snowflakes, but it couldn't cover the bustling noise of the crowd. The New Year atmosphere spread from this lively market to every household in Qinghe County.
Little Li had no idea what his parents were about to do.
He rubbed the little hand in his palm and looked sideways.
Ying Bing was wearing a newly - made red dress, with her black hair looking like it was covered in snow. Her thick eyelashes couldn't hide the seriousness in her eyes.
"What kind of birthday gift should I prepare for him?"
She had never given anyone a birthday gift before.

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence."

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
