Chapter 167 Revealing the Heart
"This kid has actually established his foundation! How is that possible???"
Seeing Xu Changshou coming on a sword, Li Daitu's eyes were full of shock.
He had been out a few days ago and had just returned this morning, so he didn't know about Xu Changshou's foundation-building.
Of course, he never thought that Xu Changshou could build a foundation?
"Greetings, Uncle Xu."
"We pay our respects to Uncle Master Xu."
The errand disciples in the courtyard all bowed to Xu Changshou.
At this time, Yang Bailao and Niu Kunlun were also in the crowd, and they also saluted Xu Changshou respectfully.
"No gift."
Xu Changshou waved his sleeves and walked into the main hall. He then bowed to Li Datu and said respectfully, "Greetings, Senior Brother Li."
After building his foundation, when he met Li Daitu for the first time, Xu Changshou directly changed his address.
Xu Changshou could now clearly see Li Daitu's cultivation level, which was at the middle stage of foundation building.
"Hahaha!"
Li Datu laughed, stood up and bowed in return, saying, "Junior Brother Xu, you are so polite. Congratulations, congratulations on achieving the great path of foundation building."
Looking at Li Daitu, Xu Changshou had a complicated look in his eyes. In his opinion, Li Daitu was very happy because he thought he was his son Li Xiaoming.
"Junior Brother Xu, please sit down!"
Li Daitu pointed to the cushion on the ground, and the two of them sat down, one on the left and one on the right.
"Junior Brother Xu, we'll discuss this in detail after I finish the mission."
"Ok!"
Li Datu began to accept tasks. After all the disciples completed their tasks, Li Datu sent them away and only left Xu Changshou behind.
Xu Changshou said, "Brother Li, do I still need to hand in my mission?"
Li Daotu shook his head and said, "You have already established your foundation. It is not up to me to decide what your mission will be in the future. You don't need to submit your previous missions for the time being. I will report to you later."
"Ok!"
Xu Changshou nodded, his expression suddenly serious, and said, "Brother Li, I have something important to say."
At this time, Xu Changshou had already established his foundation. Although his cultivation was not as good as Li Daitu's, if he used all his means, he might not be able to defeat him.
So, at this time, Xu Changshou could already look Li Daitu in the eye, and it seemed that he could also talk about what happened in the past.
"You say!" Li Daitu said calmly.
Xu Changshou: "Actually, I am Xu Changshou."
After saying this, Xu Changshou expected Li Datu's wonderful expression, but unexpectedly, Li Datu was very calm.
"I know."
"You knew already?"
"I've known it for a long time."
"When did you know that?"
Xu Changshou was speechless. He never expected that even though he disguised himself so well, Li Daitu still found out.
But the question is, why didn't Li Daitu attack him after he realized his identity?
You have to know that although Li Xiaoming is a soul, he is also the son of Li Datu. Li Xiaoming died in his hands. He is equivalent to Li Datu's murderer. There is no reason for him to tolerate him.
Li Daotu laughed and said, "You are quite clever, kid. When you came back from Huosang Country, you managed to get away with it. I really thought you were the rebellious son."
Xu Changshou frowned: "Then how did you find out?"
Li Daitu smiled and said, "No one knows a son better than his father. I know the character of that rebellious son better than anyone else. After our second meeting, I knew you were not Xiaoming. How could he, a dying man, have such a good fortune?"
"All right!"
Xu Changshou nodded slightly: "Since you realized it was me, why didn't you..."
Li Daotu: "You want to know why I didn't kill you."
"Yes!"
"hehe!"
Li Daotu smiled calmly, "Back then, I had my own reasons. I was so harassed by that rebellious son that I let you go to Huosang Country out of selfish motives."
"Later, when you returned from Huosang Country, I knew that the rebellious son was gone, but I wasn't sad because he was already dying. If he hadn't practiced evil, he would have died long ago. On the contrary, you, at such a young age, it would have been a pity if that rebellious son had possessed your body."
"So, even though I already know, I'll just pretend I don't know. You can pretend to be that rebellious son in front of me, and I'll pretend I can't see it."
"I see."
Xu Changshou suddenly realized and asked, "Brother Li, since you already know that I am Xu Changshou, why did you give me the Four Immortal Herbs?"
Li Daitu: "We cultivators value a pure mind, free from flaws and impurities. When I asked you to go to Huosang Country, I almost harmed you. Giving you the Four Immortal Grasses is compensation."
"understood."
After hearing what Li Daitu said, Xu Changshou's hatred for him suddenly disappeared.
True.
Li Datu had ulterior motives when he asked him to go to Huosang Country, but it was precisely this trip to Huosang Country that made Xu Changshou successful.
Without the trip to Huosang Country, Xu Changshou's path of Qi training would not have been so smooth. Before the age of thirty, he would never have been able to cultivate to the great perfection of Qi training.
It was because of swallowing Li Xiaoming's soul that Xu Changshou was able to cultivate to the great perfection of Qi Refining ahead of time.
This laid the foundation for his future foundation building.
In addition, the Four Immortal Grasses were also given by Li Datu. If it weren't for Li Datu, it's hard to say whether he could have obtained the Four Immortal Grasses.
If there is any mistake, I will not be able to successfully build the foundation.
Every sip and bite is predestined by heaven, maybe this is fate.
The fact that Li Datu was able to open up to me like this today showed that he was a kind person.
"Junior Brother Xu, my merits and demerits offset each other. I hope that Junior Brother Xu will forgive my mistakes from the past."
"Forget it, let's not talk about what happened back then."
"Okay, okay, have some tea."
"Brother Li, please."
"Junior Brother Xu, please!"
The two drank a cup of tea and laughed away their grudges.
Xu Changshou put down his teacup and continued the previous topic, saying, "Brother Li, you said I won't have to hand in the talisman drawing task anymore. What will I be asked to do then?"
"I don't know. I'll tell you after I meet Patriarch Xuanyang."
"what!"
After hearing what Li Daitu said, Xu Changshou was shocked. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet Patriarch Xuanyang.
He is the Yuanying ancestor, why should he meet me?
"Haha, Junior Brother Xu, you don't know..."
Li Daotu paused for a moment before continuing, "Every cultivator who successfully establishes their foundation will have a chance to meet with Patriarch Xuanyang. This year's new Foundation Establishment initiates are all waiting to be received by Patriarch Xuanyang. I've submitted your name, and I expect you'll be received at the same time as them. Once you meet Patriarch Xuanyang, he will personally assign you tasks, and there's room for negotiation."
"That's it!"
Xu Changshou nodded secretly. The treatment of foundation-building cultivators was indeed different. Not only could they meet Patriarch Xuanyang, but they also had something to discuss when assigning tasks.
When he was sent to Dark Green Peak to draw talismans, there was no room for negotiation.
Xu Changshou couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation about meeting Patriarch Xuanyang.
Everyone in the Green Immortal Sect knows that Patriarch Xuan Yang is the real leader of the Green Immortal Sect, but only a handful of people actually have the opportunity to meet Patriarch Xuan Yang.
Menial disciples basically have no chance to see it in their lifetime.
