Peerless Sword God of the City

Along the way, Xie Feier forgot about the previous danger and began to tell Li Yi about her experiences at university over the past few years, which eased the tense atmosphere considerably.

Looking at Xie Feier's attitude towards Li Yi, Huang Cheng had already guessed the general relationship between the two.

However, there is no prominent family name like Li in Qinghe City, indicating that Li Yi's family background is just ordinary.

Although he also had a great liking for Li Yi, becoming the Xie family's son-in-law was not so easy.

After all, for Tianhua Group, with assets of billions, the concept of "marrying someone of equal social standing" is deeply ingrained.

Tianhua Residential Area.

Although it's called a residential community, it's actually a mountain resort built by the Xie family at a cost of hundreds of millions of yuan. Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, it boasts beautiful scenery and is a well-known high-end villa area in Qinghe City.

Those who can live here, besides the Xie family of Tianhua Group, are the wealthy and powerful people in Qinghe City.

Li Yi remembered that after the Xie family was swallowed up by the Chen family, the Chen family took advantage of the natural advantages of this place being nestled against the mountains and by the water, and developed it into a scenic area, which brought the Chen family a great deal of profit.

Li Yi couldn't help but recall his high school days, when he would jog around Tianxin Lake next to Tianhua Community every morning. One beautiful morning, he happened to meet Xie Feier.

The two hit it off immediately and gradually developed feelings for each other. Li Yi gave her the jade pendant he had carried since childhood as a token of their love and made a lifelong promise.

Later, Xie Feier went abroad, returned, was assassinated by the Chen family, and her family was driven to ruin by the Jun family.

All of this echoed in Li Yi's mind like a time machine, and everything seemed like a dream.

but.

From the moment he was reborn, Li Yi knew that the future would no longer follow the trajectory of his previous life.

Many things that will happen in the future are now unknown.

"Brother Li Yi, I'm home."

While Li Yi was lost in thought, he heard Xie Feier's voice.

Li Yi nodded and followed Huang Cheng out of the sports car.

At this moment, two rows of Xie family servants were neatly lined up at the entrance of Tianhua Manor to welcome their princess.

A young man stood at the head of the group. He was rather thin, wearing an Armani suit, a black tie, and gold-rimmed glasses—the typical attire of a successful person.

This man is Xie Jun, the young CEO of Tianhua Group.

He is also Sheffield's brother.

"Welcome back to the manor, Miss."

As Xie Fei'er stepped out of the sports car, the Xie family's servants bowed respectfully.

Huang Cheng stepped forward, gave Xie Jun a slight bow, and then quietly described in detail what they had encountered earlier.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jun was initially furious, but then looked at Li Yi with disbelief for a few more moments.

However, Xie Jun looked at Li Yi's extremely ordinary clothes and appearance, and saw that he was a poor loser who did not look like a master at all. He showed a hint of disdain in his eyes.

A martial arts master?

No matter how skilled Lu Qingshan was in combat, he could only become a martial arts school owner to make money by performing. In the end, he lost his life for 100 million.

No matter how powerful they are, they can't compare to Tianhua Group's billions of assets.

Even if it's powerful, can it compare to modern guns and cannons?

Everyone, go wash up and go to bed.

If it weren't for the fact that the Xie and Chen families were currently embroiled in a dispute over the Qinghe Wharf, he might have even thought that Li Yi had deliberately set a trap to get close to Xie Feier.

Xie Jun stepped forward, completely ignoring Li Yi, and spoke to Xie Feier with concern.

"Fei'er, are you alright? I just heard what happened on the road from Uncle Huang. I'll go and report to Father later and ask him to avenge you."

Xie Feier nodded and said, "Brother, I'm fine. I owe it all to Brother Li Yi this time, otherwise Feier might not have been able to see you again."

Hearing Xie Feier's affectionate way of addressing Li Yi, Xie Jun's face showed displeasure.

"Fei'er, our Xie family isn't a place where just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can claim kinship."

Upon hearing this, Xie Feier angrily said, "Brother, how can you talk like that? Brother Li Yi is my savior."

Li Yi shook his head as he listened to Xie Jun's words. He didn't even have the right to be angry at such a short-sighted and ignorant person.

What Xie Jun considered to be power and money was no different from roadside trash in Li Yi's eyes.

Although he had never dealt with Xie Jun in his previous life, he had learned a lot about Xie Jun's deeds from Xie Feier and later from the fact that the Xie family was swallowed up by the Chen family.

In general, Xie Jun is an unambitious, arrogant, and domineering playboy who often harasses female colleagues at the company.

Otherwise, after the death of the Xie family head, they would not have failed to gain popular support, would not have been unable to stabilize the Xie family's precarious situation, and would not have given the Chen family an opportunity to take advantage of them, until the Xie family devoured them completely.

However, Xie Jun glanced at Li Yi and had absolutely no desire to befriend him.

"Fei'er, your father is still at home waiting to welcome you back."

"Your friend's brother will arrange for someone to take him home later."

Xie Feier stomped her foot and complained after hearing Xie Jun's words.

"Brother, how could you do this? Brother Li Yi is already at my doorstep, and you didn't even invite him in for a seat. He's my savior, after all."

Hearing Xie Jun's order to leave, Li Yi saw no need to embarrass himself and said to Xie Feier:

"Fei'er, you should go back now. I'll come see you again in a few days."

Xie Feier had originally planned to take this opportunity to bring Li Yi home to meet her father and tell him about her relationship with Li Yi.

But at this moment, her own brother didn't even bother to invite Li Yi in for a cup of tea, which made her even angrier.

Seeing Xie Feier's troubled expression, Li Yi comforted her, "It's okay, there will be many opportunities to meet in the future."

Seeing Li Yi's expression, Xie Jun felt even more displeased. He waved his hand, signaling a servant to take the reluctant Xie Feier inside.

Xie Jun watched Xie Feier enter the manor, then turned to look at Li Yi, saying condescendingly, "Please stay away from my sister from now on."

Li Yi frowned, raised his head, and looked directly at Xie Jun.

"You should know that she is a young lady from the Xie family, the daughter of the Tianhua Group."

“In Qinghe City, apart from those young masters, no one is good enough for my sister.”

"That's why I advise you to be sensible."

"Don't be a toad trying to eat swan meat."

Upon hearing this, Li Yi remained unmoved, only finding it somewhat amusing.

If he hadn't been in such a rush to save Fei'er today, he would have already gone to find a place with abundant spiritual energy and started cultivating.

Once he becomes a cultivator, any doubts, slanders, contempt, or arrogance from the world will be nothing more than a matter of a single sword strike from him.

Li Yi looked at Xie Jun indifferently and said calmly, "Don't use your pitiful eyes to judge or look down on anyone, because you can never imagine who is standing in front of you."

After saying this, Li Yi ignored Xie Jun and left with his hands behind his back.
