Emperor Qiankun

With the last rays of sunset, Black Mountain City completely disappeared into the sky, and night fell, covering the entire city.

Li Qingyuan and his group returned to the Li Mansion.

At this time, Li Changtian and a group of Li family members, after being notified in time by Chen Lingyu, learned that the crisis had been resolved, so they walked out of the tunnel and were now busy moving around in the Li Mansion.

Li Qingyuan's battle lasted a long time, during which the Li family members were all worried and anxious about his safety.

Now that they saw Li Qingyuan returning unharmed, everyone's hearts finally settled down and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

As the night deepened, the Li family mansion was brightly lit.

In the main hall of Li's Mansion, a lively dinner was taking place.

......

Before the meal started, Li Changtian personally invited Mr. Hua to sit in the main seat. At first, Mr. Hua waved his hands repeatedly and refused.

But Li Changtian was determined and tried to persuade Mr. Hua in every possible way with sincere words.

In the end, Mr. Hua was unable to resist Li Changtian's enthusiasm and had to agree.

During the dinner, Li Changtian suggested that Li Qingyuan take Mr. Hua, Su Yaoyue and others to stroll around the city and buy some New Year's goods to add some joy to the upcoming New Year.

Li Qingyuan agreed, but Mr. Hua smiled and said that he would not go, saying that he just wanted to stay at the Li family and enjoy the wine.

After hearing this, Li Changtian became more excited. He took out his long-collected 'Lihuachun' wine and drank happily with Mr. Hua.

The banquet lasted for two hours, during which time there was clinking of glasses, laughter and noise, it was very lively.

Everyone was happy from the bottom of their hearts because after going through this ordeal, Black Mountain Town was finally going to return to its former tranquility and peace.

......

The next morning, the sky brightened and the heavy snow stopped.

Li Qingyuan walked out of the room leisurely and saw the old ox still sleeping soundly in the yard, so he called Su Yaoyue and others to go to the street.

At this time, the shops on both sides of the street have reopened for business. Each store is clean and bright, and is filled with a wide variety of goods.

Not only that, many temporary shops have been set up on the street. The stall owners are shouting enthusiastically, attracting passers-by, and the whole street presents a lively, prosperous and bustling scene.

A group of people strolled along the street, stopping here and there, with the intention of "buying", and carefully selecting the items they liked.

Various New Year goods were collected, including red spring couplets and blessing characters, which symbolize good luck and prosperity in the new year;

There are sweet and delicious candies and pastries, exuding an enticing aroma;

There are also colorful fireworks, as if foreshadowing that the new year will be as colorful as fireworks.

......

The streets were crowded with people, and people kept sending various things to Li Qingyuan.

Some of these gifts are exquisite handicrafts, some are homemade snacks, and so on.

They did this not only to get close to Li Qingyuan, but more out of their deep admiration and respect for him.

In their eyes, Li Qingyuan has become a great hero who protects Heishan Town!

Li Qingyuan naturally understood this truth, so he accepted the kindness with a smile and said some nice words.

Suddenly, little Li Daoyi, who had been following Li Qingyuan, suddenly stopped.

His big round eyes stared straight at the dazzling array of items on both sides of the street, with excitement flashing in his eyes, as if he had discovered a new world.

Li Qingyuan noticed something strange about the little guy. He turned around and looked at the cute little Li Daoyi and couldn't help laughing.

Then he reached out and gently touched little Li Daoyi's head.

Then he took out a bag of heavy silver from his bosom, placed it in his hand, and said gently:

"Go ahead, buy whatever you like, don't be restrained."

......

When Li Qingyuan talked with Li Daoyi yesterday, he learned that he had grown up in a poor family and had a very hard life.

My mother has been seriously ill for many years and is bedridden. My father is just an ordinary person who relies on doing some physical work in the town to support the livelihood of our family of three.

Although life is quite hard, fortunately the family can still stay together and rely on each other.

However, the arrival of Zhao Sheng and others was like a nightmare, which ruthlessly broke their family's originally peaceful life and plunged them into an endless abyss.

My father was overworked during the arduous and dangerous work of building Black Mountain City. He eventually died of exhaustion due to exhaustion.

When the mother learned the sad news, she was heartbroken, suffered severe physical and mental damage, and passed away soon after.

Only seven-year-old Li Daoyi was left living alone in this world.

Li Qingyuan was deeply saddened by what happened to Li Daoyi.

He planned to wait until Li Daoyi's body recovered to its best condition, then guide him onto the path of martial arts, giving him the ability to protect himself and others, and starting a new journey in life!

......

At this moment, Li Daoyi was holding a handful of money tightly in his hands. He looked up at Li Qingyuan timidly and said:

"Master, that's a lot of money. I can't use it all."

Hearing this, Li Qingyuan patted Li Daoyi on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile:

"It's okay, Master, there are still a lot here, you can buy them without worry."

"Oh well."

Li Daoyi nodded slightly, a happy smile on his face.

Then he skipped and ran towards a shop selling "sugar men" not far away.

Not long after, little Li Daoyi came back happily, carefully holding three sugar figures of different shapes and bright colors in his hands.

He ran happily to Li Qingyuan, stretched out his little hand, took out a candy man and handed it to Li Qingyuan, with an innocent smile on his face, and said, "Master, have some candy, this is so sweet."

Li Qingyuan took the sugar man with a smile, but did not put it into his mouth to taste it immediately. Instead, he held it gently in his hand and looked at it carefully.

At this time, Li Daoyi turned and walked towards Su Yaoyue. He also stretched out his little hand and handed a candy figure to her, saying, "Master's wife, here is my favorite candy for you."
