Chapter 4: The Li Family's Onslaught

Li An returned to his room and fell into a deep sleep.He didn't know how much time had passed.Suddenly, his heart leaped, and he abruptly woke up.Looking up, he saw a person sitting at the desk in front of him.It was a man, young in appearance, but with long hair.His eyes were gloomy, like those of a snake or scorpion, and he wore a luxurious black-gold soft robe. The robe was covered with dense array runes. Li An roughly estimated that this piece of clothing was worth an astronomical figure.Moreover, every gesture he made exuded a noble aura.The moon had not yet set; it was still early morning.Although it was summer, the air was somewhat cold.Li An was certain that he wasn't dreaming!The other party was an uninvited guest.Li An sat up and frowned, "Who are you?""My name is Li Shaoshu," Li Shaoshu said calmly, "Strictly speaking, I'm your younger brother."Li An was stunned.A young master of the Li family from the Starfire Domain?At this moment, Li Shaoshu said to himself, "Li An.""Eighteen years old.""Talent: Dream.""School: Tianshui High School.""Hasn't changed profession yet.""Your grandmother passed away when you were seven, your parents died in battle when you were ten, and your grandfather passed away half a year ago, so you are an orphan.""When you were twelve, you were found to have infinite-level talent, and a powerful expert came to take you to the High Heaven Domain for cultivation.""But you didn't leave Tianshui City in order to accompany your grandfather through his final journey.""The six years from twelve to eighteen are the golden years for cultivators.""You've been holed up in this small city, not receiving the best education and resources, which means there's already an insurmountable gap between you and people like us.""This is probably because your grandfather told you early on that if you wanted to become a war strategist, you would have no future.""So you were very obedient and gave up the treatment you deserved for having infinite-level talent.""But you're also very strange. You made a deal with the principal of Tianshui High School. He gave you all the best resources he could get, and the price you had to pay was to fight for Tianshui High School in this year's Super High School League.""Furthermore, you play a masked man, chasing down fugitives in the city, and three years ago, you also began entering the Sixty-Seventh War Zone, the closest one to here, to fight on the front lines for military merit.""You've accumulated a lot of military merit over the years, exchanged it for many resources, so your cultivation level isn't low.""This makes me a little puzzled.""What exactly do you want?""If you're going to be a waste, then be one completely. Don't make things difficult for everyone!"Li Shaoshu stared at Li An like a venomous snake, emitting a chilling aura.Li An, however, sat up and smiled, "You're wrong about one thing.""What?" Li Shaoshu asked, puzzled."You're my younger brother, so I'm not an orphan."Hearing this, Li Shaoshu was stunned, then sneered, "You mean, you want to join the Ye family of the Starfire Domain?""Interesting.""That's indeed a wonderful solution. After all, with someone like you, who has the same talent as our ancestor, joining, our Li family's reputation will reach its next peak.""You're smarter than I thought.""But outsiders are still outsiders!""Wait!" Li An interrupted Li Shaoshu, standing up as he spoke, "You're overthinking it.""I don't intend to go to your Li family.""It's just the literal meaning.""As long as I have relatives alive, I'm not an orphan."As Li An spoke, he walked to the kitchen, turned on the lights, lit the stove, and asked with his back to Li Shaoshu, "I'm hungry. I'm going to cook something.""Do you want some?"Li Shaoshu stared intently at Li An, his mind suddenly becoming somewhat confused.What was this guy doing?Cooking noodles?And adding an egg?I'm threatening your life here.And you're cooking noodles!?No.Li Shaoshu glanced at the stove and said lightly, "Don't play tricks.""If you make any rash moves,""I will kill you immediately."Li An still didn't turn around, generously showing his back to Li Shaoshu, his posture relaxed and unguarded."You won't kill me."As soon as he finished speaking, Li An felt a gust of cold wind blow past him.He saw Li Shaoshu appear beside him, staring gloomily at his neck, saying, "You think I don't dare to kill you?"Li An put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned his head, and nodded indifferently at Li Shaoshu, "Yes, you won't kill me.""Stop threatening me.""You don't dare to kill me.""Because there's a third person here!""You're wary of her!""Come out.""Should I cook a bowl of noodles for you too?"The next second, an icy voice rang out from the corner of the room."No need."A woman wearing an ice-blue long dress walked out. She was barefoot, with fair wrists and eyes like crystal blue gemstones, and her black hair cascaded over her shoulders.She was tall and slender, with a straight waist, and her figure under the robe must have been excellent.But any man who saw her would not have any romantic thoughts.Because her eyes were too cold, not like the eyes of a living person.Li Shaoshu's expression was unsightly. "How did you know there was a third person?"Li An chuckled, "You arrived in my room five minutes before I woke up.""Do you know why I didn't wake up immediately, but five minutes later?"Li Shaoshu narrowed his eyes. "Why?""Because she arrived five minutes later." Li An glanced at Shuangxue.Shuangxue stood there woodenly, without reacting.Li Shaoshu laughed loudly, "You mean,""I couldn't pose any threat to you at all, and you only woke up because you were afraid of her?"Li An nodded lightly. "Yes.""Ridiculous." Li Shaoshu said coldly, "Killing you is just a thought away!""No, no, no." Li An shook his head. "It's not a matter of strength.""It's a feeling.""Hmm?" Li Shaoshu frowned."After you arrived at my house, you didn't release any killing intent." Li An glanced around the room. "You even opened my refrigerator and didn't come looking for me right away.""You like to eat ice cream?"As he spoke, Li An opened the freezer and said quietly, "I'm the only one at home.""I know exactly how many popsicles there are.""I don't understand what you're talking about?" Li Shaoshu puffed out his chest, putting on a fierce look, trying to look down at Li An and threaten him.But for some reason, Li An just looked at him calmly, making him feel like a paper tiger.Finally, he took a deep breath and said, "Li An!""Our destinies were decided from the moment we were born!""I am destined to be the next head of the Li family of the Starfire Domain, commanding the three thousand Iron Fang Army!""And you are just an ordinary person from a small city. No matter how hard you try, you will never be able to turn things around!""If you obediently live your life as a commoner, you will definitely survive.""But if you still dream of soaring to the sky, then you will definitely die!""This is fate. You have no choice!"Li An shook his head. "No, I have a choice."This is the same text that was previously translated. Here it is again:
