C17 Half-step king

Half a Spirit Grass, regardless of whether Liu Zhengjun could be saved or not, was enough to make Li Ke a distinguished guest of the Liu family.

Li Ke had just taken out half of the Spirit Communication Grass from Liu Zhengjun's sickroom when a large group of Liu Family elders rushed over, wanting to share a portion of the spoils with him.

It would be hard for others to even look at the herb if they wanted to.

After not seeing him for two years, Liu Zhengjun didn't seem to have grown up much. Seeing that the person who came was Li Ke, and also hearing that Li Ke was here to deliver medicine, he complained, "Where have you been these two years? Little Leopard isn't staying to play with me. Don't tell me you're only willing to come back because I'm sick to death."

Looking at the pale face of Liu Zhengjun, who looked like a broken porcelain doll, Li Ke could not find a single word to explain himself.

Liu Zhengjun said with a tearful voice, "You're a bad guy!"

"I'm sorry!" Li Ke didn't dare to retort. Right now, he was the biggest patient.

"In the future, you are not allowed to not play with me, and you are also not allowed to leave without telling me. It will still take a long time before you come back."

"I'm sorry!" Li Ke had no choice but to apologize.

Sick Liu Zhengjun talked a lot and complained over and over that Li Ke left Huainan without telling him. He even took Little Leopard and ran away, not staying to play with her.

Li Ke was very careful not to mention Gong Lingruo. Subconsciously, Li Ke felt that if Liu Zhengjun were to find out about Gong Lingruo, Liu Zhengjun might jump out of his sickbed and take a knife and chase him all over the world.

Although he didn't know why, Li Ke felt the same way.

Talking happily with Li Ke, Liu Zhengjun's spirit is rare and good. The elders of the Liu family didn't want to disturb the two children from their conversation. They listened attentively to Li Ke's story about the wolf cub mountain, wanting to hear some clues about the search for the Spirit Grass.

Even Liu Zhengjun's father, Liu Song, was not immune to vulgarity.

At this point, it can be seen that the ones who are hurting the children are all their mothers.

Zhu Jun Pingping found a trustworthy doctor and confirmed that Li Ke had indeed brought some Spirit Grass. He immediately ordered someone to prepare the medicine and ingredients and personally supervise the cooking. Then, he brought them to Liu Zhengjun for him to feed.

The Huai Nan Liu family was a top family in Huizhou and there were many different types of spiritual medicines within the family. The Hundred Herb Liquid could be freely used by the family's disciples and there were also quite a few high quality spiritual medicines.

However, the Psychic Grass was too high grade. Perhaps there were a few leaves in the Imperial Palace and Liu Zhengjun would not be able to use them.

If Li Ke had brought medicine with him, Liu Zhengjun would have been much less vicious this time.

As soon as the medicine was ready, Jun Pingping brought it in himself. The room that had been filled with the smell of medicine was filled with an enchanting aroma.

All the elders of the Liu family cast their eyes towards that bowl of delicious soup. Many of them really wanted to rush over and drink it in one gulp.

Standing outside the room, the Liu family's juniors were extremely envious and resentful as they stared at the sickroom of Liu Zhengjun.

Liu Wenyi was the one who hated him the most. The Psychic Grass was so close to him, it was once easily obtainable. But because Liu Wenyi misjudged him, he missed it. He hated Li Ke the most, he had brought the Psychic Grass with him and was already so crafty at such a young age. Li Ke brought with him half a stalk of Spirit Communication Grass. He didn't know if there were any left, but he definitely had to get it.

The medicinal fragrance from the ward had also reached the courtyard. Liu Wenyi twitched his nose in disappointment. Every breath he took felt carefree and relaxed.

If one were to drink this bowl, even an idiot would turn into a genius.

There wasn't just one or two people in the Liu family who shouted that it was a waste.

She was afraid that someone would take the medicine from her. Even her husband couldn't believe that she had to do it herself.

After taking the medicine, Liu Zhengjun's illness obviously eased a lot.

The doctor told Liu Zhengjun to take good care of himself because he had been sick for more than half a year. Even if the effect of the herb was excellent, it was impossible to cure it. In the blink of an eye, it had made Liu Zhengjun full of vigor.

Seeing that Liu Zhengjun was in better condition, Li Ke was relieved and asked to leave.

Liu Zhengjun asked Li Ke to stay with her and begged her weakly. Li Ke waited until Liu Zhengjun fell asleep before getting up and taking his leave.

At this moment, the sky had already turned dark, and the bustling had actually lasted for an entire night.

This time, Li Ke brought two fruits, three leaves and half of the rhizome. He used three leaves and all the rhizomes to cure Liu Zhengjun, leaving only two fruits.

The Liu family clearly did not plan to return the fruit to Li Ke. The two families took one each for the Patriarch of Liu family, Liu Ye, and one for Liu Zhengjun's father, Liu Song.

Others could only look on helplessly.

Li Ke cared about all of this.

However, there were also some elders in the Liu family who were shameless and asked where the other half of the Spirit Grass was.

Li Ke answered straightforwardly, "I will eat with grandpa."

Many people in the Liu family hated Li Ke to the core and wanted to tear him apart to eat him. How could such a precious immortal herb be eaten by a mud-lipped brat like him?

"Destroying the heavens!" It was unknown how many people were howling in grief in their hearts.

Everyone also understood why Li Ke had the strength of a peak rank 7 at such a young age.

After eating a quarter of the herb, even sows would be able to fly, and the faster the better.

If they knew how many spirit medicines Li Ke had consumed, they would definitely go crazy with anger. Then they would capture Li Ke and slowly drain his blood and refine medicine. The concealed medicinal properties within Li Ke's body had yet to be fully unleashed. The concealed medicinal energies would become a great boost to Li Ke's cultivation path, crushing one obstacle after another for him.

As for the remaining two fruits, he could not afford to stay there either. He apologized to Li Ke and asked him to stay in the guest room. Li Ke was anxious to get home, so he declined Jun Pingping's offer and went to meet his grandfather, Li Chen, at the Datong Gate. They went through the city and returned home after two years.

Seeing that his son had returned, Liu Yan cried tears of joy. He hugged Li Ke without letting go.

Li Chen knew that his daughter-in-law would blame him in her heart. She would take Li Ke out for two years without coming home, and very rarely would she send back messages. If he didn't even send a letter, Liu Yan, who had left his son for two years, would have surely gone mad.

After crying, Liu Yan prepared to eat while asking his neighbor to call Li Bai home.

Noon had not arrived yet, but Li Bai had taken a leave of absence to return home. The Chief Steward of the Liu residence, Liu An, had arrived almost immediately and had sent over forty sets of expensive gifts.

Liu An was an old servant of the Liu family and would not easily step forward to do business. This time, the Liu family sent Liu An over, which explained a lot.

Liu An was a very good-natured person. He passed the gift slip to Li Chen and said, "Lord, I feel that the Li family's carelessness and grace in saving my life is not enough to repay this favor."

"The general director is being too courteous."

Li Chen received the gift slip without feeling the slightest bit of heaviness.

Half a Spirit Grass could be exchanged for more benefits if it was able to function well. For such a small matter, the Liu Clan would be too embarrassed to hand it over. Li Chen wasn't a saint either. Despite paying such a huge price, his report was completely out of proportion to it. No matter who it was, they wouldn't listen to him. If he did not have other plans, Li Chen would definitely not agree to Li Ke's plan of saving Liu Zhengjun in the Adventurer District.

After Li Ke came back, he also told them about the Liu family's matter.

In the fight for the Wealthy Class seat, there were no tears or blood. There was not even a trace of kinship in the fight for the Wealthy Class seat.

He was specially prepared for Seventh Young Master Liu Wenyi. If he offended this vile character, he had to be more careful in the future. Li Chen was absolutely right about Li Ke killing people in the Liu Estate. A little ruthlessness on his part could cause a scumbag to have some scruples.

Liu An took out two documents from his chest pocket, and showed them to Li Chen, saying, "This land deed is the land deed for the Grass Hall at the River Estuary Hall, and has already been changed to Young Master Li Ke's name. The Old Master thinks that it would be best if it was given to Mr. Li for safekeeping. This is the letter of appointment for the magistrate court.

"Thank you very much."

After receiving the two documents, Li Chen had almost received the presents.

When Liu An returned to the Liu Manor, he was the first to see the Patriarch, Liu Ye, choose. He recounted the gifts he had given to the Li family before and after.

Liu Ye asked, "Are you sure Li Ke's grandfather, Li Chen, has the strength of a peak ninth level?"

Liu An answered, "This old servant definitely did not see wrong. Li Chen didn't hide it from me. I could tell that Li Chen was not just a peak rank 9 warrior, he was already a half-step King."

Liu Ye said with regret, "Half a Spirit Grass should have already been eaten by their ancestors. One was a half-step King, while the other was a ten year old peak of Class 7."

Liu An lowered his head, unable to condemn his master's greed.

The Spirit Grass was found by the Li family's ancestors. Why did they all fall to the Liu family? Li Ke took out the Spirit Grass to save Liu Zhengjun, not because the Liu family was powerful, but because Liu Zhengjun was Li Ke's friend.

It was all selfless and simple.

Liu An had a good impression of the Li family members.

Liu Ye chose to regret for a while and instructed, "Please ask Li Chen to be a deacon and arrange a job for his son, Li Bai. He has won over the hearts of the Li family members. If that brat Li Ke has any future, I don't mind marrying Jun'er to him.

Liu An said, "Isn't it a bit urgent?"

"Of course it's one thing. The little tricks that Xiao Qi did can no longer be concealed. He didn't know what Ol 'Three would do, but he knew that he wouldn't let it go easily. That promising granddaughter of mine is also not someone who's easy to deal with. Once she's completely recovered, she might not even make this trip to Little Seven. "

"Seventh Young Master did indeed overdo it."

At this moment, the Liu Family's third generation's Seventh Young Master Liu Wenyi was like an ant on a hot pan, walking back and forth in his father's study, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks.

Liu Kuang was ranked fifth, a very unremarkable person in the second generation of the Liu family. His martial arts were not as good as his son's, and he had a hand in handling political affairs.

"You reap what you sow!"

Liu Kuang didn't plan on comforting Liu Wenyi at all.

Liu Wenyi stopped and angrily said: "It's all because of that servant Cheng Hu, he can't even beat a ten year old child. If he's a bit more nimble, then half of the Spirit Communication Grass is ours, and even if the Patriarch comes to ask for it, we can still get a share. But now, if Thirteen doesn't die, then I'll be in big trouble. "

Liu Kuo said, "Why don't you know how to repent? Thirteen is your sister. Even if you are jealous, you can't stop me from doing this." If you hadn't had someone stop her and instead had a few people randomly give Thirteen prescriptions, she would have probably died a long time ago. How could she have waited for Li Ke to rescue her? Similarly, if Thirteen died earlier, would the Li family find out about the matter regarding the Spirit Communication Grass? How many times have I told you not to complain afterwards and to try to save it? "

"Father taught me."

"No solution. The only way out is for you to go out and hide."

"This …" Liu Wenyi was extremely unwilling. If he left Huai Nan, then he would leave the center of the family's power. How could he fight for a share of the benefits that belonged to him?

Unreconciled, truly unreconciled.
