Chapter 137 Li Family
Sun Huo's face turned pale. This was the old house of the Sun family, which was very close to the Li family. Sun Huo thought that Li Xuan, as the eldest son of the Li family, would definitely not think of hiding next to the Li family. He did not expect that Li Xuan would actually chase him here directly.
Seeing that there was nowhere to hide, Sun Huo knelt down and shouted loudly, "Mercy, mercy! For the sake of my Sun family being a vassal of the Li family, please spare me!"
This voice quickly attracted the attention of the people from the nearby Li family. Suddenly, a young man appeared in the courtyard next to him and shouted, "Who is it?"
And right after the young man finished speaking, a group of people gathered around him, and the torches they brought lit up the entire courtyard like daytime!
When Sun Huo saw the Li family appear, his face instantly regained some color, and he immediately said, "It's me, I'm Sun Huo from the Sun family, I brought Li Xuan back!"
"Li Xuan!" The young man couldn't help but shouted loudly when he heard this!
Zhang Tie turned around and found that he was surrounded, while Sun Huo on the opposite side quickly ran behind the young man in charge and whispered something.
Zhang Tie thought about it and realized that Li Xuan's identity was arranged by Wang Xiong before. He didn't think it mattered at the time and accepted it directly. He didn't expect that it would cause some trouble today.
"Is he Li Xuan?" The young man saw Zhang Tie turning his head to look at him and began to look him up and down.
"That's right, it's Li Xuan who has been wandering outside for many years!"
Sun Huo said quickly that now that his affairs had been discovered by Zhang Tie, he could only try to get the Li family members to let him go because his family had been friends with the Li family for many years.
"Brother Yuan, I heard this from the instructor of Xuanwu Academy. This Li Xuan joined Xuanwu Academy on his own. Because of his strong physical cultivation, he was noticed by Instructor Liu and was about to be brought into the inner courtyard!"
After hearing Sun Huo's introduction, Li Yuan believed it more.
Although Li Xuan is the legitimate son of the Li family, he was sent out of the family due to an accident in his early years, and Li Yuan has no impression of him.
However, he had heard that Li Xuan was born with a strong physique, and his talent was comparable to that of his own ancestor who was now seriously injured and in seclusion.
"Then why is he chasing you?"
"Well," Sun Huo hesitated a little, thought about it, and said directly through gritted teeth, "There was a misunderstanding between Young Master Li Xuan and me, so I was chased here by the Young Master."
Sun Huo turned around and knelt down to kowtow to Zhang Tie. "Young Master Li Xuan, I was blinded by greed before and did those things. Sun Huo kowtows to you here. Please forgive me for the sake of our friendship!"
As he spoke, Sun Huo began to kowtow to Zhang Tie. After a while, Sun Huo's forehead was covered with blood.
Zhang Tie frowned as he watched what Sun Huo did. Sun Huo had made up his mind to kill him this time. If he let him go this time, something unexpected might happen in the future. So Zhang Tie didn't plan to let him go.
Seeing that Zhang Tie didn't make any sound, Li Yuan realized that Zhang Tie was not going to let Sun Huo go.
But looking at the miserable appearance of Sun Huo in front of him, Li Yuan couldn't just let him die here. After all, Sun Huo was a member of the Sun family, and the Sun family was a subsidiary family of the Li family.
Thinking of this, Li Yuan made a decision instantly. As the current acting patriarch of the Li family, he could not watch the Li family's already weakened strength continue to decline.
So he walked up to Zhang Tie and said, "Li Xuan, welcome back to the family!"
“Ah?” Zhang Tie was a little slow to react. He just became Li Xuan like that?
Seeing Zhang Tie's reaction, Li Yuan thought that he might not recognize him, so he began to introduce himself, "You may not know me, after all, you have lived outside since you were a child. I am the acting patriarch of the Li family now, you can call me Brother Yuan!"
Li Yuan patted Zhang Tie on the shoulder and said with a smile, "As expected, you have inherited the talent of your ancestors. Your physical strength is truly amazing!" Zhang Tie was about to speak when he was stopped by Li Yuan, "Let's talk about Sun Huo later. I promise I won't let him go. However, the situation of the Li family is too complicated now. Can we wait until you enter the family before we talk about it?"
Seeing that Li Yuan was sincere and reliable, Zhang Tie agreed. "Okay, since Brother Yuan said so, let's talk about Sun Huo later."
"Okay!" Li Yuan laughed, turned around and said to the people next to him, "Take Sun Huo to get treated first, and don't leave him!"
"Let's go!" Li Yuan turned to look at Zhang Tie and said with a smile.
Zhang Tie nodded, thinking that Li Yuan did things perfectly, but why did he think he was Li Xuan so easily?
While thinking all the way, Zhang Tie had already followed Li Yuan to the Li family's mansion.
Although it was already night, with an order from Li Yuan, the entire mansion was quickly arranged as if it were daytime.
"No one has lived in this room. I've already sent someone to clean it. Would you like to stay here tonight?"
Li Yuan walked in front and pushed open the door of a room, revealing the facilities inside the room.
There were all kinds of strange decorations everywhere. There was only a bed and a table in the huge room. There were many bottles and jars on the table, and there were many incense sticks and candles around the room.
Looking at this familiar layout, Zhang Tie looked at Li Yuan next to him with strange eyes.
Li Yuan was puzzled when he saw the layout of the room. However, before he could say anything, the quilt on the bed suddenly moved, and it was obvious that there was something inside.
"Wait for me here first. This room is the place with the most concentrated demonic energy in the clan, and it also has many formations that can improve cultivation. Only the most important members of the clan can use it. This is definitely not a random room!"
Li Yuan was afraid that Zhang Tie would misunderstand and think that he was trying to intimidate Zhang Tie, so he hurried to explain.
"It's okay, it's okay, Brother Yuan, you should go and take a look. I think there's a person in there!"
Zhang Tie didn't have any objection, and he did find that the demonic energy here was strong, and there were many formations that could improve cultivation. Li Yuan really didn't lie.
"That's good!"
Li Yuan nodded, then walked into the room and lifted the quilt.
Zhang Tie saw Li Yuan standing there in a daze, and thought to himself, "Could it be some kind of demon or monster?"
Zhang Tie walked in out of curiosity, and then he found that there was a tied-up woman on the bed, and her clothes were tattered, with patches of white faintly visible.
However, the man was unconscious at the moment, and there were many scars on his face.
After Li Yuan untied the rope, he found that the man had a very good appearance and figure, but there were large scars on his body, as if he had been tortured.
