Chapter 128: The Living Son-in-law
"These are not precious items, just a broken stone. Take it," Li Xiaojun said calmly.
"Shishi, thank your great-grandfather," Li Nianjun instructed her granddaughter.
"Thank you, great-grandfather," the little girl quickly thanked him.
"Nianjun, can you tell me about your mother after I leave?" Li Xiaojun asked Li Nianjun.
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Li Nianjun nodded.
"I heard my mother say you were taken away by the upper echelons of the Cultivation Alliance. Is that true?" Li Nianjun asked back instead of answering.
"Yes, I was taken by the Hongxia Empress, Liu Hongxia," Li Xiaojun nodded.
"I see, no wonder I couldn’t find out where you were later," Li Nianjun realized that Li Xiaojun had been taken by the Human Race great emperor.
With a great emperor, how could she, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, possibly find out?
After thinking for a moment, Li Nianjun asked Li Xiaojun again, "I was not assigned to another planet by the Cultivation Alliance; this should be related to you, right?"
According to the rules of the Cultivation Alliance, on life planets, only ordinary people can exist apart from the alliance’s administrators.
Any cultivator who reaches a certain cultivation level after coming of age must immigrate to another planet.
Li Nianjun possessed top-grade spirit roots, so logically, with her talent, she would also have to immigrate after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.
Such rules couldn’t even be violated by many people from the Imperial families.
Even the descendants of the Ziwei Great Emperor must leave life planets after reaching a certain cultivation level.
However, Li Nianjun, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, was not emigrated by the Cultivation Alliance.
In this situation, she could continue living on Taihuang Star.
She had always been puzzled about this, but now she speculated it must relate to her father, Li Xiaojun.
Hearing his daughter’s words, Li Xiaojun thought for a moment and said, "This may have something to do with Liu Hongxia; Liu Hongxia is my daughter…"
"Liu Hongxia is your daughter?" Li Nianjun interrupted Li Xiaojun in surprise.
"Yes, is there a problem with that?"
"This, how can this be possible?" Li Nianjun could hardly believe it.
A great emperor being her father’s daughter meant she was the half-sister of the great emperor?
This was something she could not accept.
"Dad, it’s fine if you say this in front of me, but please do not mention it to others; offending the great emperor can lead to execution."
Li Nianjun whispered to Li Xiaojun, concerned that someone might overhear!
Hearing his daughter’s words, Li Xiaojun smiled.
It was clear that his daughter cared about him.
Although she, like Liu Hongxia, had never seen her father since childhood,
Liu Hongxia only wanted to use him when she met him.
Yet, this daughter still cared about his well-being.
After thinking for a moment, Li Xiaojun did not continue to explain his relationship with Liu Hongxia.
He asked Li Nianjun, "Now, can you tell me about your mother?"
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Li Nianjun nodded.
"After you left, my mother had a good life because of the wealth you left behind," Li Nianjun said to Li Xiaojun. "After I was born, my mother named me Li Nianjun. You should understand what that means, right? Since I was little, my mother often talked about you. She said you are a very talented and wonderful person. If you hadn’t been taken by the Cultivation Alliance, you definitely would not have left us."
"My mother also told me not to hate you; you are not someone who abandons your family. Actually, my impression of you comes only from what my mother said. I have never seen you, so I can’t really say whether I hate you or not."
"But after you left, my mother never married again. She left more than half of your wealth to me, and without the wealth you left behind, I couldn’t cultivate so quickly. So, I do not hate you."
Hearing Li Nianjun’s words, Li Xiaojun nodded silently.
He didn’t expect that He Sixue would never remarry because of him.
In this situation, Li Xiaojun felt a bit moved.
Moreover, it was clear from his daughter’s words that He Sixue had always defended his image in her daughter’s heart.
No wonder, when he met this daughter for the first time, her attitude toward him was so good.
It was clear that this daughter recognized him as her father, and this had a lot to do with He Sixue speaking well of him in front of their daughter.
"I’m sorry! Actually, in the third year after I separated from your mother, I was taken to Autumn Rain Star by the Ziwei Great Emperor and Ziyao Great Emperor. After that, I stayed on Autumn Rain Star and only now found the opportunity to come back," Li Xiaojun explained to Li Nianjun.
"Dad, you don’t need to explain anything to me. You’re my father, and it’s enough that you can come back. If you recognize me as your daughter, then I recognize you as my father, and I will take care of you until you grow old."
"Wait, Dad, you can live for over two hundred years; you must also be a cultivator, right? I can’t even see through your cultivation level at the Nascent Soul stage. You might be even stronger than me, so maybe I will depend on you in the future?" Li Nianjun said with a smile to Li Xiaojun.
Hearing his daughter’s words, Li Xiaojun felt warmth in his heart.
This feeling was completely opposite to the coldness Liu Hongxia had given him.
"Since you recognize me as your father, I recognize you as my daughter," Li Xiaojun said to Li Nianjun.
"Dad, did you just arrive from Autumn Rain Star to Taihuang Star?" Li Nianjun asked Li Xiaojun.
"Yes, I just came back not long ago," Li Xiaojun nodded.
"Do you have a place to stay? If you don’t, you can stay here with your daughter."
"By the way, I married Chen Bufan from the Chen family in the Immortal Domain. He went to work, but I will call him to come back so I can introduce him to you," Li Nianjun said to Li Xiaojun.
"Alright, sounds good," Li Xiaojun nodded.
He felt a bit strange.
He actually had a son-in-law now.
Although previously, his daughters, whether Li Ziwei or Li Ziyao, had been married and had many children,
the husbands of those daughters had almost all passed away thousands of years ago.
This was the first time he encountered a son-in-law who was still alive.
Soon, Li Nianjun called her husband and children, and one by one, many people returned home.
"Dad, this is my son Chen Fusheng, this is my daughter and son-in-law… and my nephew…"
With each arrival, Li Nianjun introduced them to Li Xiaojun.
"Fusheng, this is your grandpa."
"Hello, Grandpa!"
"This is your great-grandfather, Xiaoyue."
"Hello, Great-Grandfather!"
Li Nianjun introduced many of her descendants to Li Xiaojun.
Just as many of the younger generation arrived, Li Xiaojun’s son-in-law, Chen Bufan, finally arrived late.
"Bufan, this is my dad."
"Dad, this is my husband Chen Bufan," Li Nianjun introduced her husband to Li Xiaojun.
As soon as Chen Bufan entered the door, Li Xiaojun’s gaze examined him.
Chen Bufan did the same, looking at Li Xiaojun!
When he saw Li Xiaojun, his doubts about Li Xiaojun’s identity vanished instantly.
"Son-in-law Chen Bufan pays my respects to you, father-in-law!" Chen Bufan bowed respectfully to Li Xiaojun.
