I Am Your Father

How could Si Jie randomly drop such a personal item here?

Most importantly, if Yu Chishen's words are true, does that mean that he wandered around the Fumen for more than half a year, while Si Jie probably returned to Tianxu early in the morning?

Is he really... still alive?

What about the bitch?

But he was also brought back here?

The stagnant pool of water in his heart seemed to be stirred up by the surging tide in an instant, Li Zhi forced out his rationality that was almost submerged by the shocking waves, suppressed his emotions and asked again: "Did you find anything else?"

Yu Chi Shen shook his head: "No."

"Take me there now."

Standing up impatiently, Li Zhi urged Yu Chishen to turn around first, and look towards the direction he just pointed.

"You really can't let them go."

But a muffled and cold sigh came to his face, Li Zhi's heart tightened suddenly, he stared at the figure who appeared before him in astonishment, and stopped stiffly in place.

I saw that the person who came was wearing a dark green robe and an extremely thick cloak, and his temples were stained white with frost. Although he was nearly half a hundred years old, and he was sitting on a wooden cart being pushed by someone, he was not old, and his facial features were deep and cold. , it can be vaguely seen that he was tall and straight when he was young, his eyebrows and eyes are indeed somewhat similar to Li Zhi, but the bottom of his eyes has long been covered by endless wind and snow, and his eyes are piercingly cold.

It was Yan Jinghe.

Even though Li Bai'er softened at the last moment seven years ago, the fierce battle under the watchful eyes of the public cost him half his life. After years of recuperation, he still can only rely on the cart to move like this.

And the confrontation between Li Zhi and Yu Chishen just now seemed to fall into his eyes.

"..."

Li Zhiding stared at him, together with Yan Xiu, the moment he saw Yan Jinghe, his expression tensed up involuntarily, showing fear that he shouldn't have.

"You already knew...they weren't dead?"

Seeing Yan Jinghe's gaze without the slightest hesitation for a long time, Li Zhi's heart suddenly beat like a drum, but he tried his best to suppress and asked.

Yan Jinghe didn't answer, but listened to Li Zhi's alienated tone when he spoke to him, and after the silence, he let out an inaudible chuckle.

The smile was clearly not malicious, but it made people's hairs stand up, like the mercy of the ignorant from the high god of evil, so that Li Zhi suddenly woke up like a dream in the short silence.

wrong.

not only that.

He ignored it, but there was actually another possibility.

——When he woke up half a year ago, Yan Jinghe was in Dingxian Mountain.

So when Li Goudan and Si Jie jumped off the Hue River one after another, where was Yan Jinghe?

For the past six months, he has searched almost all night without sleep, but he failed to find any traces nearby, and even Chi Ke "has no bones left".

And if Si Jie really returned to Tianxu, why would he want to create the illusion of disappearance?How could there be such a coincidence today, the jade buckle he dropped at some point was picked up by Yu Chishen who had lost his memory.

"You..." It was as if a hole had been torn out of the heart that had been crowded for a long time, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger uncontrollably. Looking at Yan Jinghe's meaningful expression at this moment, Li Zhi could almost conclude that the jade clasp Appearing is by no means accidental.

There is only one explanation left.

Thinking of this, he couldn't hide the shock and anger on his face anymore, Li Zhi blurted out: "They are all in your hands?"

Si Jie jumped down like that, no matter how strong his skills are, accidents will inevitably happen, if someone takes the opportunity to sneak attack, he may not be able to defeat him.

"You let me search for these half a year, but you brought them back here early in the morning!"

Yan Xiu, who hadn't been able to connect all the clues, suddenly heard Li Zhi speak like this, and looked at Yan Jinghe in astonishment.

"You want to see if I'm completely determined to find them, so when I come back, I deliberately use this jade button to test my reaction, is it—"

But just as Li Zhi gritted his teeth and continued to question, he saw Yan Jinghe suddenly waved his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Bai'er taught you to be quite intelligent." Mentioning Li Bai'er, Yan Jinghe's eyes seemed to pause for a moment, but quickly disappeared, and he continued, "However, you are only half right."

"what?"

Then he signaled the people behind him to push the cart forward, and Yan Jinghe and Li Zhi approached a little closer, with a strangely gentle voice, as if he was still the leader of the five factions who had his heart in the rivers and lakes back then: "It is true that I have brought them from the bottom of Sumang Valley a long time ago. Come back, this jade buckle is also what I want to reveal to you on purpose."

"But my purpose is not the temptation you think."

"I don't need to test you," Yan Jinghe raised his eyebrows and smiled again as he spoke, "If I simply wanted to wait for you to give up, I wouldn't spare their lives until now."

"..." Li Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth, subconsciously wanting to ask something, but he couldn't.

Although he had already guessed it before, when he heard Yan Jinghe admit it with his own ears, no matter how complicated the reason was, what hit him most directly was joy.

That was the feeling that he had almost forgotten in the past six months.

His brat is really still alive.

They are all alive.

Without taking his eyes off, he absorbed the mist that filled the corners of Li Zhi's eyes for a moment, Yan Jinghe continued calmly: "And since I intend to tell you everything, there must be my intention."

"Let me ask you now, do you only care about Li Yun'ai's life or death, or..."

"Hey," this time, before Yan Jinghe finished speaking, Li Zhi immediately sneered, "It's ridiculous that you still ask me this kind of question right now."

"Of course I'm concerned about the two of them," Li Zhi said with a frank but ruthless look, "If the man surnamed Si is alive, I will tell him not to live but not to die!"

While speaking, there was a slight cracking sound, and the jade clasp on Li Zhi's heart was torn apart.

Feeling the overly real resentment, Yan Jinghe watched Li Zhi for a while, and finally said: "That's good."

"Li Yun'ai... just treat it as a gift from me, as a father, that you are willing to come back to me, that you and my father and son will finally recognize each other."

"..."

"Of course, if I want to see this gift, I have another condition." Facing Li Zhi's sudden surprised gaze, Yan Jinghe changed the topic.

"The leader of the five sects, I haven't been able to make him let go after half a year, why don't you find a way and ask me...Xiao Luohe's cultivation method."

"He deceived you to get Bi Anxiang. If you really want to take revenge, you should treat him in the same way as him, right—"

"it is good."

Yan Jinghe's last rhetorical question hadn't finished yet, but Li Zhi had already agreed.

124. Don't be afraid

Looking along the way, Li Zhi discovered that there were probably a hundred or ten disciples of the Jiuji Sect who survived back then, and they all lived in seclusion in the sparsely populated Zhuyun Village on the north mountainside of Tianxu. Disciples of Xu are somewhat friendly and know everything about Jianghu like the back of their hands, like a poisonous snake that has penetrated deep into the enemy's hinterland, dormant for many years, just waiting to deal a fatal blow.

"Little Hierarch!"

"The little leader is finally back..."

"Don't worry, little leader, we will follow to the death, kill all five sects, and avenge the former leader and his dead colleagues!"

"..."

As Li Zhi's identity spread in the village, many villagers who heard the news also came here on purpose. Indeed, most of the faces were familiar, and it seemed that Li Zhi returned to the Jiuji Sect that he was familiar with since childhood.

It's just that the voice that fills his ears from time to time is mixed with the vicissitudes of being tempered by numerous blood debts. As he walked, he became more and more rigid, knowing that it was destined that no one could go back.

What was even more surprising to Li Zhi was that the person who brought him to see Si Jie was Jin Li.

When Jinlou reunited, although they hadn't seen each other for many years, they were kind, and they were an old friend whose every move could restrain Li Zhi's thoughts. They had only been separated for half a year, and the two looked like they didn't say much to each other, but they didn't seem to recognize each other. who.

It's not because he cares so much about his calculations, let alone hate, but because he understands that he is just a pawn.

He clearly knew that the deaths of Fu Han and Shen Han were all due to the fact that Chi Ke recruited those people with the intention of robbing Bi Anxiang, and Chi Ke was banned by Li Baier because of Wuyantang, and he also hated Yan Jinghe back then, Yan Jinghe He even led the five sects to attack the leader of the Jiuji Sect, and personally killed Li Bai'er. Logically, he should also be at odds with these remaining disciples of the Jiuji Sect.

But it is very strange that this group of people who hate each other has now gathered together and achieved an embarrassing unity in their stance towards the five factions.

Li Zhi could vaguely think of the reason, but he was just a pawn and couldn't change anything.

"I advise you to be mentally prepared."

The mountain road under the feet is not easy to walk, or there are many traps, especially the plants and trees near the forest are used to deceive the eyes, and ordinary people can't go here. Li Zhi followed Jin Li for a long time, and finally saw Jin Li Stopped, and spoke the first sentence with him.

Li Zhi's eyes still stayed on the trees and strange rocks that had changed positions several times behind him, and he could probably guess that Yan Jinghe had a deep relationship with Tianxu when he was young, so he must also know something about Tianxu's strange art of dunjia.

Seeing that Li Zhi seemed to have no reaction to his words, Jin Li was not embarrassed, just lowered his eyes and said nothing, turned around and stepped into the entrance of the cave where a large frost was condensed in front of him.

When we first entered the cave, it was very narrow, and there was a strong cool wind, which soaked the two of them in an instant, and it became darker and darker in front of our eyes, not even a single candle, except for the whistling wind in our ears and what we stepped on under our feet. The shattering sound is really depressing.

After walking like this for about a moment, he suddenly felt that the force of the blowing wind slowed down a little, he should have walked out of the long and narrow path, Li Zhi stretched out his hand and fumbled back and forth, but he really couldn't find the edge.

"arrive."

I only heard Jin Li say in a low voice.

arrive?

His brows were furrowed in the dark, Li Zhi didn't feel the slightest vitality here, it just seemed to be filled with an excessively humid chill, and he couldn't figure out why for a while.

until he heard a very soft
