Chapter 385: 【159】Who is secretly peeking, what divine being are you?_2
For a normal man at your age, sperm is no longer active, but you’re different. You can still continue to reproduce, sowing your Li family descendants,
become the White Lotus Saint Emperor yourself, find a hundred or so women for a harem, and in twenty years, what kind of obedient and good offspring can’t you have? Yet, you want to protect this woman raised by the Jiang family?
Will she acknowledge you? Will she see you as more important than the matron and Jiang Tianzhen? No, to her, you’re just an old man with a mere blood relationship,
Li Qionghao, think carefully, do you want to sever ties with me to protect this woman, or do you want to maintain a friendly relationship with me and comfortably be your White Lotus Saint Emperor?"
Wang Longhu spoke very slowly, staring at Li Qionghao word by word.
His gaze was focused, and the will of the Black Dragon and Black Tiger manifested on his body, clearly prepared for a big fight if Li Qionghao insisted on his ways.
"This..." Li Qionghao was taken aback, his mind instantly entangled in conflict.
It was indeed as Wang Longhu said, for normal men at sixty or seventy, sperm viability drops significantly.
But Grandmasters of Gang Qi are different; their physical functions remain strong, and their sperm are still active.
Given Li Qionghao twenty years, he could completely revive the Li bloodline with his strong physical capabilities and stamina.
If he saves Jiang Yu, not to mention whether she acknowledges her ties to the Li family, if he fails and gets killed by Wang Longhu, the Li family would truly go extinct.
This is truly not worth the risk.
"Grandpa Duke, my parents are already dead, you’re my only relative in this world..."
At this moment, Jiang Yu suddenly looked pitifully at Li Qionghao, her eyes brimmed with tears.
Her face, sorrowful and faintly crying, truly made Wang Longhu want to praise her acting skills.
It was evident that Zhang Yuanying had told Jiang Yu that she was in fact a Li family member, and Li Qionghao was willing to acknowledge her, making her the White Lotus Saint Emperor.
Right now, by acting obedient, if she could get Li Qionghao to fight Wang Longhu, just to protect her, Jiang Yu still had a slim chance to survive.
Wang Longhu sneered; he had ways to deal with such manipulative women.
He grabbed Jiang Yu by the collar and threw her towards Li Qionghao.
"Li Qionghao, what to do next is entirely up to your choice," Wang Longhu said indifferently.
Jiang Yu, seeing herself getting closer to Li Qionghao, was overjoyed, thinking she might truly have a chance to survive.
At that time, by lying low and playing the long game like the matron did over the years, she might even have a chance to avenge Wang Longhu.
But just as hope sparked in Jiang Yu’s heart, a big hand suddenly gripped her slender neck.
Jiang Yu looked at the silent Li Qionghao incredulously, her eyes filled with fear.
"No way? Impossible! Grandpa Duke! I am of the Li family bloodline."
Before Jiang Yu could finish her sentence, Li Qionghao exerted his palm, breaking Jiang Yu’s entire neck.
With a fairly crisp sound, Jiang Yu’s head tilted, blood continuously oozed from her mouth; even at death, her face remained with a look of dying with grievances.
Why?
Everything was different from what Yuanying told me?
Wasn’t Li Qionghao supposed to value me greatly and push me to the position of White Lotus Saint Emperor?
Could it be that Zhang Yuanying was deceiving me?
Throwing Jiang Yu’s body to the ground, Li Qionghao sighed with complex emotions.
Wang Longhu was right; if he wanted, he could have descendants for the Li family once again.
Given his situation, he could have many children and grandchildren. Offending Wang Longhu for a woman raised by the Jiang family was not a wise move.
Li Qionghao was not a fool. His rise to the Duke position meant he had insight; he wouldn’t give up big gains for little wins.
Wang Longhu could perfectly handle an attack from over a hundred people in an ambush. Li Qionghao felt if it were him, he would have been killed on the spot by a sniper rifle.
In other words, the gap in strength between him and Wang Longhu was enormous; offending Wang Longhu was indeed a wrong choice.
So, between saving Jiang Yu and befriending Wang Longhu, Li Qionghao chose the latter.
"Once the matron’s faction is completely eradicated, you only need to take control of the remaining Jiang family members in the White Lotus Society and reduce their influence within,
and the entire White Lotus Society would be the Li family’s domain. Congratulations, Li Qionghao." Wang Longhu nodded in satisfaction.
"It was you, Mr. Wang, who enlightened me, otherwise I would still be stuck in my thoughts." Li Qionghao laughed.
Now that the matron’s faction was wiped out by Wang Longhu, without his involvement, it had also solved many of Li Qionghao’s troubles.
...
In Jiangnan District, Victory Bar.
Wang Longhu pushed open the door, entering with a short-haired middle-aged man.
This man was none other than Daoist Tianle.
After receiving treatment surgery from the top brain doctor of the White Lotus Society, Daoist Tianle finally had his mental illness cured.
He also regained his sanity and remembered past events.
Wang Longhu chose not to stay long at White Lotus Peak but immediately left with Daoist Tianle, preparing to return to the homeland to send him to Wudang.
After drifting outside for ten years, it was time to return home.
Before leaving the Korean Peninsula, Wang Longhu had one last thing to do, which was to bid farewell to one of the few people he knew there.
