Chapter 54 Ye Lengleng's Family (1)

Li Muyun looked at Xiao Ai's receding back, with a helpless yet doting smile on his face. He shook his head gently and said to himself, "This girl is getting more and more naughty."

Then, his gaze fell on the thousand-year soul bone on the table again, and his eyes became deep.

"This Senior Guang Ling is really willing to give. A thousand-year soul bone is an extremely rare treasure even for a high-level soul master."

Li Muyun turned around and stared into the distance. A faint sound of wind approached quietly, but it did not alarm him at all.

Suddenly, a dark figure flashed out from the darkness, knelt down in front of him silently like a ghost, and whispered: "Sir, I have something important to report."

Li Muyun tilted his head slightly, his eyes like torches, piercing through the night, falling on the visitor, his voice was calm but with unquestionable majesty: "Speak."

The man trembled slightly, obviously in awe of Li Muyun's majesty. He lowered his voice, spoke quickly and excitedly, "Sir, those soul masters who dared to tease Miss Xiao Ai yesterday all encountered unspeakable accidents overnight. Some of them went astray during their practice and suffered great losses in their cultivation. Some of them fell into traps inexplicably while performing their missions, and their lives are uncertain. Some even died suddenly in their sleep, and the cause of death remains a mystery."

Li Muyun nodded slightly, a hint of approval flashed in his deep eyes, his tone was still calm but revealed an unquestionable power: "Well, you did a good job, go down."

The man in black shuddered when he heard this, as if he had received supreme recognition. Then he turned into a black shadow again and blended silently into the night, leaving only slight air fluctuations to prove his existence.

The courtyard returned to peace. The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on Li Muyun's resolute profile, outlining a somewhat cold outline.

"Don't blame me. If the Spirit Hall takes action, not only you, but your family may cease to exist."

Li Muyun sighed softly, and that sigh seemed to travel through the cracks in time and space, carrying a bit of helplessness and heaviness. He looked up at the starry sky, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, as if he was mourning for those soul masters who paid the price for their momentary greed.

The night wind blew gently, lifting the hair on his forehead and seemed to blow away some of the haze in his heart. But the heaviness was like the night, quietly covering his heart, making him sigh again: "What a sin..."

The voice was deep and long, echoing in the empty courtyard, and seemed particularly clear. He closed his eyes, as if at that moment, all the grievances and hatreds turned into a wisp of light smoke in the night wind, drifting away with the wind.

"..."

the next day.

Tiandou City, this prosperous city of soul masters, is bustling with people. The Soul Awakening Hall of the Soul Branch Hall is crowded every day, and all kinds of families gather here with their visions and expectations for the future.

Below the Awakening Stage, the queue of people was like a long, winding dragon. The children were either excited or nervous, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and desire for the unknown world.

"Next, Li Minghui!" Following the loud voice of the awakening master, a child of about six years old, accompanied by his parents, walked up to the awakening platform with slightly trembling steps. His little hands tightly grasped the corner of his mother's clothes, but when he looked at the dazzling awakening array, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. In the awakening hall, the noisy voices suddenly paused, as if an invisible force had pressed the pause button. Everyone's eyes turned to the entrance at the same time, where a servant in the uniform of the Spirit Hall was walking quickly. He walked through the crowd and said clearly and powerfully: "Li Muyun, someone is looking for you!"

Li Muyun put down the work in his hands and asked, "Who is looking for me?"

Xiao Ai walked in and said, "It's the little girl at Tiandou Royal Academy that day. Her name is Ye Lengleng. She came with her parents and said she has something to talk to you about."

Hearing this, Li Muyun paused his pen, and the ink droplets spread out on the rice paper to form a black lotus. He looked up at Xiao Ai, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Then, he put down his work, stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the entrance of the hall.

Passing through the bustling crowd, Li Muyun's eyes searched the crowd and soon locked onto a little girl with a cool temperament - Ye Lengleng. She was wearing an elegant green dress and standing next to the Spirit Hall attendant, which made her particularly eye-catching. Next to her, a middle-aged couple looked nervous and expectant, exchanging glances from time to time, as if they were full of trepidation about meeting Li Muyun.

Li Muyun walked towards Ye Lengleng's family with a smile on his face. His smile was warm and friendly, instantly easing the tension of the middle-aged couple. He nodded slightly, his voice gentle but powerful: "Hello, I am Li Muyun, you are Ye Lengleng's parents, I have heard of you for a long time. Please follow me, let's go to a quieter place to talk in detail."

As he spoke, he stepped aside to make way and led Ye Lengleng's family through the side door at the edge of the Awakening Hall and into a reception room with simple yet elegant decoration.

Ye Lengleng followed behind her parents, with a look of curiosity and a hint of nervousness. She quietly raised her head and looked at Li Muyun's broad back, secretly speculating about the conversation that was about to unfold.

Li Muyun gently pushed open the door of the reception room, and a light sandalwood fragrance filled his nose. The light in the room was soft, and through the half-closed curtains, a few rays of sunlight sprinkled on the dark wooden floor, adding a bit of warmth to this quiet space. He gestured sideways and said with a smile, "Please sit anywhere."

Ye Lengleng and her family walked in. The middle-aged couple seemed a little reserved, looking around the simple yet tasteful room. Ye Lengleng looked curiously at the large sofa, which was decorated with several soft pillows, the color of which matched the overall tone of the room. She gently pulled the corner of her mother's clothes, and her mother understood, smiled, took her hand, and walked towards the sofa together.

"Xiao Ai, go make some tea." Li Muyun's voice was gentle and clear, breaking the initial tranquility in the reception room.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai immediately turned around from the door and walked briskly to the tea room in the corner. She skillfully opened the teapot, scooped out a handful of warm tea leaves, put them into the simple purple clay pot, and then picked up the boiling water that had just been boiled and poured it into the pot slowly.

At that moment, steam rose up, carrying a faint scent of tea, instantly filling the entire reception room, interweaving with the sandalwood to create a refreshing aroma.

Xiao Ai turned her wrist slightly and shook the purple clay teapot gently to allow the tea leaves to fully expand in the hot water. The movement was both professional and ritualistic.

Then, she picked up several exquisite porcelain cups and poured out golden tea soup one by one. Every drop seemed to contain the essence of nature and the craftsman's mind. After finishing all this, Xiao Ai carried the tray and walked lightly back to the reception room, placing the tea cups one by one in front of Ye Lengleng's family and Li Muyun, showing her gentleness and meticulousness in her movements.

Ye Lengleng's father, a resolute middle-aged man, was the first to break the silence. His words were filled with a bit of urgency and anticipation, and his eyes were fixed on Li Muyun. The fragrance of tea and sandalwood in the room added a bit of solemnity and mystery.

"Friend Muyun, I heard from Leng Leng that you have a way to make her a Titled Douluo in the future? This... this news is like a blessing from heaven to us. We... we really can't believe it, but we can't help but feel excited."
