In the early morning, the town that had been silent all night slowly came to life. The darkness was expelled to a small corner, and the morning sun swayed over the eaves and street corners with a warm temperature.

A figure wandered repeatedly in front of a small courtyard. He stepped on the steps several times, but stopped again, like a funny puppet being pulled here and there again.

It wasn't until the wooden door creaked open and a woman in common clothes stepped out carrying a vegetable basket that the figure outside the door suddenly froze.

"You..." The woman, who was so plainly dressed that she could be called shabby, also froze. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the man at the foot of the steps. Her lips moved. She seemed to be absent-minded for a moment, so that she did not make any move.

reaction.

But just these two seconds of looking at each other revived Li Si's soul. He stepped forward in two steps, suddenly grabbed the woman's hand, took the vegetable basket, and called out softly: "

Ya'er..."

The woman seemed to finally react and tried to withdraw her hand coldly, but in vain after trying for a long time. She could only stare at Li Sidao: "Why are you still here? Are you kidding me?!"

"Ya'er, it was me before..." Before Li Si finished speaking, he suddenly heard another clear child's voice coming from the courtyard: "Mother, mother, let me go with you!"

Only the sound of light footsteps was heard, and a pink and beautiful little loli suddenly poked her head out from behind the door, blinked her big eyes and said: "Mom, let me get it for you... Hey, daddy?"

Her expression became a little timid, and she rubbed her clothes uneasily and said, "Dad, are you here?"

"Xiao Li, dad is back." Li Si squatted down and reached out to touch his daughter's head, but the latter shrank and hid behind the woman in fear.

Li Si's hands couldn't help but freeze in mid-air. He slowly stood up straight and looked at his wife protecting Xiaoli behind her like an old hen guarding her young. He couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

"Ya'er, I won't leave this time." Li Si said softly.

"How do you expect me to believe you?" The woman still looked cold.

"My... illness is cured." Li Sidao.

"so what?"

"So I won't leave again." Li Si repeated awkwardly.

The woman was silent for a while, then looked deeply at Li Si: "Do you think I'm angry because you drove Xiaoli and Xiaofeng away and were laughed at by the whole town?"

"I..." Li Si opened his mouth.

"Do you think I hate you for ignoring the two children at home and insisting on venturing to the deepest part of the Xiling Mountains?"

"..."

"Or do you think that I blame you for being so heartless that you have never even seen Xiaoli and Xiaofeng in the past six months?"

The woman's voice rose higher and higher, and tears flashed faintly in her eyes, so much so that she didn't dare to blink at all.

"You are so stupid!" The woman turned her head and walked away.

"Mother, mother..." Xiaoli was at a loss and wanted to catch up in a panic.

Li Si picked up Xiaoli and walked into the yard, not forgetting to close the wooden door.

He realized that he had made a big mistake. After ten years of marriage, didn't Ya'er still understand him?

In fact, he didn't need to explain anything at all. Ya'er understood from the beginning that the only thing she was resentful about was that he excluded her as an outsider and did not want her to accompany him through the last part of his life.

"Ya'er."

Li Si found his wife by the well in the small courtyard. Xiao Li quickly jumped down, grabbed her sleeves, shook her and said, "Mom? Mom, don't be upset!"

"Humph, your father dug the well himself. The mouth of the well is so small that I can't even jump in without thinking." The woman hugged her daughter, but still didn't give Li Si a good look.

Li Si smiled and said: "Isn't this the first time I've been inexperienced? People always make mistakes, so you should give me a chance to repent, right?"

The woman said nothing.

Li Si stepped forward without giving her a chance to resist. He put his arms around her shoulders and said seriously: "One last chance, okay?"

The woman glared at him fiercely: "Let go, you've pinched Xiaoli!"

Xiaoli squeezed out from the waist of the two of them bitterly, rubbed his head and said: "It hurts..."

Li Si laughed, rubbed Xiaoli's head gently, took a few breaths and said, "It doesn't hurt."

"Huh? It works so well. It really doesn't hurt." Xiaoli said seriously.

"Don't give him face like this!" The woman snorted, but a smile quietly appeared on her lips.

…

Two hours later, the family of four had lunch and came to the courtyard where Li Si lived alone.

Li Si held a pair of children on his left and right, and his heart was filled with tranquility and peace. Although the original chaotic energy in his body had not been completely eliminated, he already felt that his whole person was reborn.

And all these changes came from the sudden appearance of the Lord of the Commander's Palace. No, I heard that it has now been changed to the Commander's Palace.

Although the other party looks young, both in terms of cultivation and status, he should be at the forefront of this fortune-telling star. Logically speaking, there is no need for him to spend such a high price to win over a little vajra warrior like himself, but he just spent so much money on it.

Many treasures of heaven, materials and earth helped him regain his strength.

Even according to what this adult said, the original chaotic energy he extracted in the end had other uses, but Li seemed not to be an ungrateful person, and he knew very well that he owed the other party his life.

After Ya'er heard about this, she also insisted on thanking Yu Ling in person with Li Si. Although a few words of thanks were too weak, it would be even colder and callous if she didn't express anything at all.

What surprised Li Si was that there was no one in the quiet room. Yu Ling was obviously still in meditation when he left.

Li Si returned to the ground in confusion, and heard the voice of an uninvited guest: "Don't look, there were a few people who looked like masters just now and came to look for him. They left together half an hour ago... Oh, I

Go? Why are you suddenly rejuvenated?"

"Then did they say when they would be back?" Li Si ignored the last two sentences.

The leader of the Aotian Gang lazily leaned against the tree and said: "No, I guess they want to explore the Poison Burial Valley, maybe they won't be able to come back." Obviously, he was worried about being thrown down as bait before.

, and he was quite resentful.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Poison Burial Valley is a restricted area for us, and I'm afraid it's like walking on plain ground for them." Li Sidao.

"I don't care about the protection money! Forget it, just pay the three of them first." The leader of the Aotian Gang said confidently.

He was already prepared to be rejected and beaten, but he didn't expect that Li Si casually threw him a shabby money bag.

"Seeing as no one has harassed Ya'er and the others in the past six months... let's take this 30,000 yuan as a thank you fee." Li Sidao.

The leader of the Aotian Gang opened his eyes in astonishment: "You actually...cough, thirty thousand, only thirty thousand, your gratitude is too cheap, isn't it?"

He abruptly changed his tune, and then stuffed the money bag into the space ring with great ease.

"I'll talk about it later when I get rich." Li Si waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"Don't forget what you said!" The leader of the Aotian Gang's eyes lit up, he whistled in a good mood and walked out of the courtyard. He took steps like he didn't recognize his relatives, feeling that he had finally reached the pinnacle of his life.

"I actually got money from Li Si, tsk tsk, how long will this be enough to brag about?"

The leader of the Aotian Gang had his hands behind his back in a careless manner, not paying attention to the road at all. He was so intoxicated with the beautiful vision of the future that when a black figure suddenly appeared in front of him, he didn't react at all and almost bumped into the person.

"Who are you? Don't you have eyes?" The leader of the Aotian Gang quickly came over to complain first, and said with a tigerish face.

However, this mysterious man wrapped in a black robe just stared at him quietly, his eyes half smiling but not smiling.

The leader of the Aotian Gang realized that something was wrong, couldn't help but shuddered, and said with a dry smile: "Ah ha, I'm sorry, I'm leaving, I'm leaving immediately."

As he spoke, he retreated in small steps. After retreating to a position of about ten meters, he turned around and ran away.

"Do you think you can still leave?"

This was the last sentence the leader of the Aotian Gang heard before he lost consciousness, and then boundless darkness enveloped him.

The man in black held him with one hand, looked at the direction of Li Si, and murmured: "Li Si... forget it, it's a little difficult to deal with, one person is enough."
