If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 964: God’s help comes, hero’s tears go away

Although there was no real damage or loss after the big fight caused by Yu Fengxian, Li Si was still disappointed.

The combined efforts of all the Qi-refining practitioners were not enough to stop Yu Fengxian. They felt quite embarrassed and frustrated and had no desire to continue the feast.

Even though Li Si asked them to continue drinking the immortal wine and enjoying the thousand-year-old spiritual fruits, dragon meat and phoenix liver, they only dealt with them hastily for a few minutes before saying goodbye and leaving.

That night, in Li’s house, in the bedroom.

Li Si was half lying on the smooth and delicate body of his beautiful concubine, and was sleeping soundly after a lot of work.

"Incense boy, sword boy, fan boy, come back~~"

"Incense boy, sword boy, fan boy, the master is calling you, why don't you come back quickly~~"

Li Si, who was sleeping soundly, felt inexplicably nervous.

He knew he was dreaming and felt very awake in his mind, but he couldn't wake up. He was still in a daze and couldn't "see" the dream around him clearly.

The calls seemed to reach his ears, but he could not hear a word. He just felt very panicked and scared.

"Incense boy, sword boy, fan boy, if you don't come back now, when will you come back?"

The calling voice changed from faint and gentle to rapid and harsh.

"Master~" a voice called out to Li Si's ears.

This voice was like a hand that pulled open the curtain covering Li Si's eyes and pulled out the cotton plug in his ears.

He could see and hear clearly.

"Who are you?" He saw four boys.

A boy in green clothes holds an incense burner in his hand. A bunch of straight incense smoke is burning in the burner. The smoke is very high and straight, and the aroma of incense is strong.

Behind the boy in green clothes stand two boys in colorful clothes, each holding a "Five-Bright Fan".

Usually, two maids appear behind the emperor, each holding a large fan.

On the left side, there is an embroidered black Qilin, and on it there are four dragon characters that read "Shun all evil spirits".

The five-color fan on the right is embroidered with a Vermilion Bird, and above it are four phoenix characters that mean "wealth, honor and good fortune".

Behind the two fan boys, there stood alone a sword boy in black with a tense face and a cold expression.

The little boy was holding a sword carved from beautiful jade. The scabbard was made of golden gold, which looked very luxurious and exquisite.

"Xiang Tong greets the master!"

"Fan Tong greets the master!"

"Sword boy greets the master!"

The four boys were holding something in their hands. They did not kneel down or kowtow, but just bent over and bowed.

Li Si was confused.

They made him feel both strange and very familiar and kind.

He was sure that he had never seen these four strange children in his life.

But he also had a very strong feeling that they were closer to him than to his sons and grandchildren.

Without waiting for Li Si to ask, the boy in green clothes said with a sad look, "Master, we are leaving."

"Don't go, don't go!" Li Si said in panic.

He didn't know them, but when he heard that they were leaving, he felt as if his heart was dug out.

"We should have left a long time ago, but we have been dragging our feet. Today, Yu Fengxian saw everything clearly. The Golden Furnace Boy under Taishang Laojun has come down to the mortal world to summon us, and we can't stay here any longer." Qing Tong said.

Li Si took a step forward, grabbed his shoulders, and asked in panic, "What did Yu Fengxian see? Why did Jinlu Boy call you?"

Qing Tong said: "Master is a great noble who has been entrusted with the destiny of heaven. We have come to the lower world to assist the master in fulfilling the destiny.

The master has already fulfilled his destiny of assisting Ying Zheng in achieving hegemony.

Ever since the death of Emperor Ren Huang, powerful men have been looking for trouble with the old master, and they have seen me in the dark.

He only saw me and not the other three, so the secret hadn’t been completely revealed.

We couldn't bear to leave the master, so we insisted on staying here until now.

But today, Yu Fengxian suddenly saw me and Shan Tong.

It was only because she had no hostility or murderous intent towards the master that the sword boy did not appear and was not allowed to see her.

Yu Fengxian is an evil star, and we, the 'Fairy Boys of Fortune', are also afraid of her.

If we don't leave today, I'm afraid she will come to check on the master every now and then, trying to spy on our secrets.

This is the first reason. Secondly, the master's destiny has come to an end. Someone from heaven has come to call him back. We can't stop him."

"When have you ever assisted me? How can I not have a destiny? The Qin Dynasty is still here!" Li Si was confused and in pain. "I don't want you to leave. Can you not leave?"

"We are your destiny-suppressing fairy children, guarding your destiny and helping you suppress your luck."

Qing Tong took a step back, putting some distance between himself and Li Si.

"We really can't keep him here. Master, please listen carefully." Qing Tong sighed.

"Incense boy, fan boy, sword boy, you four dogs, if you don't come back, I will immediately capture you with the purple gold gourd!" The golden furnace boy began to get anxious.

Qing Tong, Fan Tong, and Sword Tong were all panicked when they heard this.

"Master, the boy from the Golden Furnace wants to use the purple gold gourd to capture us. He knows our names, and he can take us away just by reciting our real names." said the young boy.

"Master, take care, we are leaving now." said the boy holding the fan that could ward off evil spirits.

"Master, don't be sad. This farewell in this world may not be forever." Another fan-boy comforted him.

The sword boy hesitated for a moment, then said quickly: "Master, you should withdraw from Daqin as soon as possible, retire to the countryside, seek immortality, or maybe -"

"Sword boy, you are so bold to reveal the secret! Sword boy, sword boy, take it back~~"

A stern shout came from the Golden Furnace Boy from above.

The sword boy couldn't help but let out an "ah".

Immediately, a beam of fairy light fell down and swept the sword boy away without a trace.

"Ah, Golden Furnace Boy, please show mercy!" The other three children panicked and flew out of the dream.

"No, don't go, don't go~~" Li Si danced with tears streaming down his face, crying sadly.

"Master, are you having a nightmare? Wake up quickly, this is just a nightmare. I will not leave. I will stay here."

The concubine on the bed was awakened.

Or maybe Li Si just waved his hands randomly and woke her up.

She didn't dare cry out in pain, but just grabbed Prime Minister Li's wrist and comforted him softly.

While comforting him, she looked at Li Si's old face and felt a little annoyed for some reason.

She herself did not realize that Prime Minister Li at this moment seemed less majestic and sacred than before.

In the past, she would have obeyed with all her heart and soul, without even a hint of boredom. It wasn't that she didn't dare to be bored, nor was it that she had a good personality and suppressed her boredom, but it was her instinct that didn't produce boredom.

Now seeing his old face and having her sleep disturbed, the concubine even wanted to slap him a few times.

The leisurely trip to the Li Mansion did not give Xiaoyu much sense of accomplishment or excitement.

After leaving the Li Mansion, she didn't spend time feeling smug or complacent, and immediately went to more than a dozen other mansions.

No matter which of the three dukes and nine ministers, or which of the princes and nobles they belonged to, she only targeted the matter, not the individuals.

As long as there is a "big traitor" hiding, or there are a large number of strange people forming an association - like the Yangxian Hall in the Li Mansion, many strange people gather together.

As long as the number of people gathering exceeds five, they will be targeted by Xiaoyu.

After targeting them, she dropped from the sky and entered the mansion where they were.

If they summoned servants, she would become a servant and go in to serve tea and fruit, and shout "Master Daddy".

If the other party agreed, she would gain an extra "godfather", but if he didn't agree, she wouldn't force him.

The days are long!
She plans to live in Xianyang for a few years, giving her enough time to slowly find her "godfather".

If they didn't summon the servants, Xiaoyu would lurk nearby and eavesdrop.

Through the degree of affinity between the people of Xianyang and the Ying family's dragon energy, she can classify them: which ones are die-hard royalists, which ones are ordinary good citizens, which ones have grievances against the court, and which ones hate the Ying family's Great Qin and can be called traitors.

The die-hard royalists and the Qin traitors can be further divided.

If she wants, she can even create "Third Stage of Rebellious Heart", "Grandmaster of Rebellion", "Grandmaster of Rebellion Peak Limit", "Half-Step Grandmaster of Rebellion".
Xiaoyu herself was not sure whether she really had special talents, or because she had nurtured dragon veins, condensed the authority of the human king, and witnessed the Kunlun Ancestral Dragon, her control over the Ying family's dragon energy could be achieved at the "nano-level" level of precision and detail.

But distinguishing between royalists and traitors does not mean that we can find the mastermind behind the "prophecy case."

There were many traitors who hated the Qin Dynasty and despised the Ying Dynasty in their hearts.

But they don't cause trouble, or they don't have the ability to cause trouble.

For example, the oppressed people dare not even rebel.

To use the "Fox Dream Secret Method" to spread prophecies, ordinary Qigong practitioners cannot do it, let alone ordinary people.

For example, the immortals who are quiet, inactive, and highly respected do not care about the changes of dynasties in the human world. They simply dislike the cruel laws of the Qin Dynasty and the greed and extravagance of the Qin Dynasty's dignitaries. They just watch from the sidelines and do not cause any trouble.

There is absolutely no need to provoke such people.

Not only will it fail to solve any problems, but it will also bring disaster to yourself and the Qin Dynasty.

So, Xiaoyu has to identify them one by one.

She first locked onto the "Great Rebellion", then sneaked into their side, observing, eavesdropping, and triggering the Great Destruction of Fathers.
After a whole night of hard work, she visited more than 80 homes of nobles and officials, met more than a hundred new godfathers, and eavesdropped on many secrets, but they were of no use to the "case of prophecy".

It was four o'clock in the morning, when it was almost dawn.

Xiaoyu leaped across a hundred miles and arrived at the "Black Ice Platform" in Qinling Mountains.

"Greetings to Master Yu Tian!"

There are still Iron Eagle Warriors on patrol.

It was Sima Tie from last night, leading a team of ten people, patrolling around the black platform back and forth.

"General Sima doesn't have to take turns with others?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

Sima Tie smiled cheerfully and said, "Although we human immortals are not as powerful as the real immortals, our techniques of sitting in meditation to refine our qi and chanting scriptures to nourish our spirits are not much different.

I plan to patrol for a few more days and take a few more days off for New Year's Eve."

Xiaoyu glanced at the other Iron Eagle Warriors and found that the team was different from last night, with different members.

"I see. Generals, please get busy."

After bidding farewell to this team of Iron Eagle Warriors, Xiao Yu entered the Sanqing Temple, first burned a stick of incense to the Three Pure Ones, and then turned to the "Earth Emperor Temple".

I found Yang Li who was meditating in the side hall to cultivate his energy.

"Is something wrong?"

Xiaoyu deliberately made her footsteps louder, and Yang Li was awakened early.

Xiao Yu took out a purple jade cushion from his sleeve, sat cross-legged opposite Yang Li, and asked, "What is the main job of the Earth Emperor Palace? Is the Imperial City Underworld Division under the management of Daoist friend?"

Yang Li stared at the cushion under her butt for a long time, his eyes fixed.

After a while, he did not answer but asked, "Fairy Yu, your cushion looks familiar to me."

"Aren't all futons the same?" Xiaoyu said.

“But the lightning patterns on it look like the Shenxiao Sect’s lightning talismans.” Yang Li said.

"What's the point of the Shenxiao Sect's thunder talisman? I even know the Shenxiao thunder technique." Xiao Yu said disapprovingly.

Yang Li retracted his gaze and said, "As long as it is related to the ghosts and gods in the underworld, the Dihuang Palace can handle it.

But we will not take the initiative to interfere in the internal affairs of Chenghuangsi.

Unless they violate the imperial court's taboos and do something that affects the humanitarian order."

Xiao Yu said: "You Taoist friends also know what I am investigating.

Using the secret method of fox immortals, prophecies can be spread in dreams, and theoretically the wandering gods can discover clues. "

"Didn't Fairy Yu capture Mr. Hua and Manager Zhao?
You didn't find any clues, so you want to seek help from ghosts and gods?" Yang Li said with a hint of sarcasm.

Xiao Yu said angrily: "You still have the nerve to gloat over other's misfortune, aren't you the chief steward of the Earth Emperor Palace?
The parade may be a betrayal of its own people. Have you investigated this?
The work I am doing now originally belonged to you.

You should be grateful to me, my friend."

Yang Li said unhappily: “The prophecy is obviously spread by humans, what does it have to do with the Earth Emperor Palace?
Perhaps you can tell this to Master Huihe."

True Man Grey Crane of Taiyi Dao is the head of the Human Emperor Palace.

Meng Qi had said before that the case of the prophecy should have belonged to the Human Emperor Palace.

"Just tell me, if Youshen colludes with the rebels, is it your responsibility?" Xiaoyu said.

Yang Li was silent for a moment, then said, "You go find the City God yourself. The City God of Xianyang is the chief of the Ying clan (the chief of a small clan, usually the brother of the King of Qin), named 'Ying Qian'. Have you heard of 'Gongzi Qian'?"

Xiao Yu thought for a moment before saying, "Could it be the one who killed Shang Yang?"

"Only the King of Qin could kill Shang Yang. However, you recognized the right person. He was the Prince's chief tutor during Shang Yang's time.

He is resolute, brave, intelligent, and was once a pillar of the Qin Empire. He will never betray the Ying royal family." Yang Li said.

Xiaoyu stood up, put away the futon, and asked, "Are you not going with me?"

"I want to refine my Qi." Yang Li closed his eyes.

"How did someone like you become the head of the Dihuang Palace?" Xiao Yu said disdainfully.

Yang Li was very excited and shouted, "If it weren't for Master Meng's insistence, I would have resigned five years ago!

If you are willing, I will give you the position of the head of the Earth Emperor Palace now, but I am afraid you don’t have the ability to do it.”
