On this day, it was time for Li Ji to leave Wangyue Peak.

Slowly standing up from the medicine jar, Li Ji moved his body. He hadn't moved for many days. He felt that his body was rusty and his legs seemed to be numb and unconscious. He looked out the window.

The sun is shining brightly.

After a long time, Li Ji recovered a little. He picked up his clothes, which were the clothes he wore when he was kicked out by Ji Bingxian that day. He sighed. In the past few days, he had never seen Pei Qinhu again. Only Lan Xin came to see him a few times.

, seeing that Li Ji was almost fine again, she wanted to say something, but hesitated. Li Ji did not ask, he knew that it would be better to go back and ask his senior brother, maybe he could know more.

After getting dressed, Li Ji opened the door and walked out.

The moment he stepped out, the dazzling sunlight stung Li Ji's eyes. He could hardly remember that looking directly into the sun would be so nostalgic.

He couldn't see anyone, but he still remembered that there was paper and pen in the room, if he remembered correctly.

When he was recuperating, Li Ji didn't look at the room carefully. Looking at it now made Li Ji laugh. This seemed to be a study room. No wonder he saw pen and paper.

Spreading out the rice paper, Li Ji wrote: Thank you.

After thinking about it, Li Ji couldn't think of anything else. He shook his head, put down his pen, and walked out silently. He looked in the direction of the front hall and stood there. Finally, he gave up.

He returned to Tongtian Peak and looked back. Everything gradually blurred, but his mood was still so complicated, and there was an indescribable feeling inside.

This time, before he could rest, he saw Zhao Li already waiting for him in his room.

Li Ji said respectfully: "Uncle, why are you here?"

Zhao Li looked calm and said: "I was waiting for you, but you were half an hour late."

Li Ji didn't answer him, he just frowned and thought.

"Are you wondering why I know so clearly? You are also wondering why I am looking for you. In fact, I will tell you one by one right away."

"You sit down first."

"Yes, uncle." Although he was confused, Li Ji still brought a stool and sat down in front of Zhao Li in a formal manner.

"Let me ask you, do you know the inheritance of my Sword Sect?"

Li Ji thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about it, but I heard something from Uncle Zhang."

"You are one of them."

"I know that, but I don't have that idea." Zhao Li replied calmly.

Zhao Li smiled, shook his head and said, "It's not up to you. From the moment you were poisoned, you were already trapped. You had no choice."

Li Ji looked at Zhao Li. He couldn't figure out why Zhao Li wanted to say this to him. Didn't he mean that this was all his choice? Why would it become like this?

Next, Zhao Li's words were explained to Li Ji.

"Actually, it's very simple. If you want to quit, you just need to go to your master uncle, the old man who taught you swordsmanship on the back mountain. Just ask him to nod, and that's it. In addition, you still need your

Master also agreed to this, otherwise, it would be impossible."

"Is there no other way?"

Zhao Li looked at Li Ji, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He smiled and asked Li Ji: "Why don't you just want to do it and just give up?"

"Uncle Master, not everyone will be crazy about this kind of thing. Do I have to be like you, fighting to the death, and only a few people or even less will be left in the end before I give up? What kind of choice is this for the leader?

, this is raising gu!" Li Ji's tone began to become excited.

"It's useless for you to tell me this, but there is a way. It's a bit unacceptable. I just don't know if you are willing to do it."

When Li Ji heard this, he hurriedly asked: "Uncle, what can I do?"

"Look at your impatience. Actually, there is another way, which is to get a wife."

"Um?"

"You heard it right, marry a wife. As long as you marry a wife and then marry her, you will no longer be a disciple of the Nagato. Naturally, you will no longer have to participate in the fight for the position of the leader."

"You don't have to rush to answer me. Think about it before you speak."

Zhao Li picked up the wine bottle at his waist and drank in small sips while glancing at Li Ji from the corner of his eye, trying to see his reaction to his status.

Li Ji sat there scratching his head. This was difficult for him. He did know someone, but it was basically impossible. He would not fall in love with Pei Yan, let alone get married to her. But for others, Li Ji

I don’t know Ji either, or rather, I’m not familiar with him.

After thinking for a long time, Li Ji asked tentatively: "Uncle, is there any other method?

There’s a little bit of a method…”

"Why, isn't it bad?"

"Okay, okay, but you know, I only know one or two of them. The key thing is that I still..."

"Don't like her? Does that matter? Anyway, after you get married, your relationship can be cultivated slowly. It's not like you will fall in love with her right away."

Li Ji pressed his forehead. He had a headache at this time.

"Forget it, I'll think about this for a while. Uncle Master, do you think it started when I was poisoned? Right?"

"Yes." Seeing Li Ji change the subject and ask about other things, Zhao Li smiled inwardly, but still answered.

"I understand. I will give you an answer to this matter later. Anyway, I am not qualified now, am I? I have something to do. I will go out first. Uncle, please drink slowly." Zhao Li bowed his head slightly and retreated.

Got out.

This time Zhao Li was confused. In fact, he was just helping Pei Qinhu. He made up all these things. It was Pei Qinhu who came to him that day and asked him why he hadn't sent any disciples yet.

As we were going down the mountain, as we were talking, we started talking about the Moon Watching Peak.

That was the first time Zhao Li saw Pei Qinhu showing such a sad expression. Even when they were surrounded by a group of monsters and couldn't escape, their eyes were filled with madness and no sadness at all. But there was no successor to Wangyue Peak.

, he, Pei Qinhu, was reduced to the point where he had to leave his own daughter behind and marry someone else to ensure that Wangyue Peak could still gain a foothold. This was so tragic.

Zhao Li looked at Pei Qinhu. No matter when, Pei Qinhu was always so cheerful. He had never had such a look. They had known each other for so long that Zhao Li had selfish motives. He talked about this with Pei Qinhu.

, but was rejected by Pei Qinhu, of course he would not cause trouble again, but just drank with Pei Qinhu until both of them were drunk and couldn't bear it.

Only then did Pei Qinhu's attitude toward Li Ji suddenly change, and even Lan Xin found it strange.

But Zhao Li was Zhao Li after all. He still looked for opportunities to help his old friend. Anyway, he knew that Li Ji had no intention of becoming the leader, so why not send him there, and he and Pei Yan

They were familiar with each other, so Pei Yan probably wouldn't refuse, so this happened.

Looking at Li Ji's walking figure, Zhao Li frowned deeply. It seemed that it was still not possible. Then find an opportunity. This kind of thing wouldn't be a problem in three to five years or ten years anyway.
