Chapter 204 Past Grudges

Lijia Village Riverside

The river is wide and the current is rapid.

Li Zhen focused on helping Su Wu wash the sweet potatoes.

He put the sweet potato into the river, and before he could even move it, the rushing water washed the mud off the surface of the sweet potato in his hand.

Ever since he unexpectedly discovered that Aunt Wu, whom his mother always talked about, was still alive.

Li Zhen then shamelessly followed Su Wu from the Cloud Heaven Continent to the mortal realm.

He didn't know exactly what had happened between his mother and Aunt Wu.

However, whenever his mother mentioned Aunt Wu, she would look melancholy and wistful, filled with longing and admiration.

And her mother's tearful dying words, "Zhen'er, if...if you ever have the chance to meet your Aunt Wu in the future, remember to...if your mother says sorry to her."

He will never forget it.

Li Zhen was not discouraged by Su Wu's indifference.

He simply followed silently beside Su Wu, eagerly taking on chores.

Su Wu closed her eyes and looked at Li Zhen, who bore a striking resemblance to her sister Su Shan, her expression complex.

He sighed and spoke his first words since they met, "You look a lot like your father."

Now that she had spoken, Su Wu didn't intend to delay any longer.

Su Wu: "Li Zhen, you should leave with Hua'er tomorrow."

Li Zhen picked up the bamboo basket from the blue stone by the river and followed behind Su Wu. After a long silence, he finally uttered a soft "hmm".

Su Wu: "I have never blamed your mother, and the matter of the Puppet Sect has nothing to do with your father."

"It was Aunt Wu who took her anger out on me."

Li Zhen looked up at Su Wu's retreating figure, his voice hoarse, "Aunt Wu."

Su Wu paused for a moment, then opened her mouth and replied, "Mm."

"Let's go, go back."

Li Zhen smiled sheepishly and said happily, "Okay."

A hundred years ago, the Puppet Sect was destroyed in one fell swoop, and the leader was none other than Li Zhen's grandfather, Li Gong.

At that time, Li Zhen's father, Li Hao, and Su Shan had already developed feelings for each other.

Under the guise of discussing marriage, Li Gong secretly slipped the secret drug 'Spirit Transformation Powder' into the wine of Sect Leader Su and the elders.

Taking advantage of the fact that Sect Master Su and the elders were unable to mobilize their spiritual power, they ruthlessly slaughtered the entire sect, all for the sake of seizing the Puppet Sect's Puppet Control Manual.

After learning the news, Su Wu, who was away training, went to the Li family to seek revenge.

They were relentlessly pursued by Li Gong.

Finally, he jumped off the Leaping Dragon Cliff and arrived in the mortal realm.

He collapsed from exhaustion while passing through a valley near Lijia Village.

He was discovered by Li Han, who was on his way to chop firewood in the mountains, and taken home.

When Su Wu returned to the Cloud Sky Continent, she learned that her younger sister, Su Shan, had married Li Hao.

She was furious at the time.

On their way to the Li family to find Su Shan, they overheard a conversation between Li Hao and Su Shan.

Afterwards, she seized an opportunity to use the puppet technique 'Soul Capture' on Li Hao.

A cultivator who has been affected by the puppet technique 'Soul Capture' is unable to lie to the caster.

After getting the whole story from Li Hao, Su Wu learned that Li Hao had nothing to do with the destruction of the Puppet Sect, and then turned and left.

What she didn't know was that Li Hao had already discovered her when she made her move.

The reason he was able to succeed so easily was because Li Hao deliberately revealed a flaw, allowing her to possess his soul.

Looking at the tall, muscular, and taciturn Li Zhen, Su Wu sighed inwardly, "Fate is cruel."

She also knew about the destruction of the Li family.

After the incident, she even secretly went to look for Su Shan.

Unfortunately, we didn't get to see each other one last time.

As for Li Zhen, she had also searched for him, but when she went there, Li Zhen had already escaped from the Li family and disappeared without a trace.

During this period, although she ignored Li Zhen, she did not harbor any resentment towards him; on the contrary, she felt more pity for him.

After all, she was the orphan of his own younger sister, so how could he possibly hate her?

I just wanted to see what kind of person they were.
