In the past, Chasing Famine had taught Qin Yu as an elder. No matter if it was teaching Qin Yu the power of bone chime, the method of raising devils, or giving pointers to Qin Yu's cultivation, or helping Qin Yu analyze his situation, he had always done it from the perspective of an elder.
Chasing Famine had also tried his best to play the role of a "master" and "tirelessly" taught Qin Yu.
However, from a certain point of view, Chasing Famine's actions were actually to silently dissolve Qin Yu's vigilance.
The reverence that Qin Yu involuntarily revealed towards him made Chasing Famine feel comfortable. According to his plan, it would not be long before Qin Yu's vigilance towards him was completely removed. At that time, Qin Yu would listen to everything he said and become his chess piece.
However, this time, he had inexplicably slept for a period of time and discovered that everything had changed. Qin Yu seemed to have changed into a different person. Even the reverence he had for him had disappeared.
This caused Zhu Huang to be extremely puzzled. Even if Qin Yu had experienced something while he was in deep slumber, shouldn't Qin Yu's reverence towards him have vanished?
Unless … he had experienced countless tribulations during that period of time. Other than that, he must have come into contact with someone at the peak of the Immortal Realm or someone even stronger than him … This was the only explanation.
Recalling the terrifying aura that he had to endure after waking up from his deep sleep, Chasing Famine had a thought. "Could it be … this brat really came into contact with an Immortal Realm expert during his deep sleep?"
Chasing Famine guessed in his heart. If in the past, Qin Yu was like a fish on a chopping board in Chasing Famine's eyes, then now, Chasing Famine had gradually started to pay more attention to him.
After muttering to himself for a long time, Chasing Famine asked probingly, "How do you know that this old man cannot eradicate it?"
Qin Yu did not answer. Instead, he concentrated on carving.
All these years, only by concentrating on carving could Qin Yu forget about the pain of the devouring power devouring his physical body.
The more Qin Yu remained silent, the more Chasing Famine's imagination ran wild. Chasing Famine was naturally suspicious. This could be seen from the young Chasing Famine. Although this was Chasing Famine at his peak and his state of mind was not something the young Chasing Famine could compare to, to a certain extent, his suspicion was even worse.
In the following days, Chasing Famine did everything he could to try to ask Qin Yu for something. However, Qin Yu did not. he remained silent and Chasing Famine did not, Chasing, Chasing Famine........... Chasing Famine did Translation.
Li Shi would deliver medicinal concoctions to Qin Yu every few days. Although these medicinal concoctions weren't of much use to Qin Yu, he didn't refuse them.
Time Time Li Translation.
In the blink of an eye, nine months had passed.
"Old Mute, Old Mute … it's born. It's a boy … look … it's a boy."
On this day, Qin Yu was carving carefully in the courtyard as usual. Suddenly, he heard Li Shi's excited voice.
Qin Yu turned his head slightly and saw Li Shi carefully running over with a baby in his arms.
Li Shi ran to Qin Yu's side and squatted down. He let Qin Yu see the baby in the swaddling clothes. He said excitedly, "Old Mute, look, it's a boy. What name do you think we should give him?"
Qin Yu looked at Li Shi meaningfully. It was as if he could see through his inner thoughts. After a long time, Qin Yu used a carving knife to write a word on the ground: Yu.
"Yu?
Li Yu?
Li Yu … "Li Shi looked at the ground and repeated the name several times. Suddenly, he thought of something. His eyes widened. Qin Yu had never seen them before. He held the baby Li Yu in his arms and said excitedly," Thank you, Old Mute, for giving me a name. Thank you, Old Mute, for giving me a name … "After saying that, Li Shi quickly left with the swaddling clothes.
That night, oil lamps were lit in Li Shi's house. They could faintly hear the woman's crying and scolding. They could also hear Li Shi's hearty laughter.
In the past eleven years, this was the first time Li Shi laughed so happily and loudly.
Under the moonlight, Qin Yu was still carving. From time to time, he would raise his head and look at the vast starry sky. It was as if there was someone he yearned for day and night on the other side of the starry sky.
"Kid, you will only be finished if you continue like this. Although the … seed in your dantian can counteract the devouring power, you have to know that the devouring power is getting stronger and stronger. When it becomes a devouring whirlpool, even Immortal Realm experts will not be able to do anything!" Chasing Famine's voice sounded.
In the past few months, Chasing Famine would remind Qin Yu every once in a while. He was really anxious. If the mysterious seed in Qin Yu's dantian was devoured, the devouring power would definitely become stronger. At that time, even his divine soul would not be able to survive.
Qin Yu still turned a deaf ear to him. He collected his thoughts and continued carving.
In the past few years, Qin Yu had been thinking about how to eradicate the devouring power. Qin Yu had tried many methods. In the end, he placed all his hopes on comprehending the devouring power. He tried to use comprehension to eradicate the devouring power, but it ended in failure.
In the end, Qin Yu came to the conclusion that the devouring power was not Bai Tuxiong's Dao, but his divine ability!
This almost destroyed Qin Yu's thoughts of eradicating the devouring power.
The following days were simple and plain. Qin Yu's carving skills were well-known in Thunder Rush City. Many people came to Qin Yu, hoping to carve the objects they wanted.
As the orders increased, Qin Yu began to get busy. This kind of busyness was almost meaningless to any cultivator. However, for Qin Yu, it was the only way for him to forget the pain.
He put all his effort into carving. Every stroke and every line would be carefully carved.
As for Li Shi, other than delivering the decocted medicine to Qin Yu every three days, he would either intentionally or unintentionally bring Li Yu to Qin Yu's simple courtyard for a stroll.
Good times did not last long.
When Li Yu had yet to learn how to call "father", Li Shi had an accident when he was picking herbs and fell off a cliff. When the residents of Thunder Rush City found him, Li Shi died miserably. Half of his body was bitten off by spirit beasts.
Judging from the scene, Li Shi should not have died after falling off the cliff. After all, he was at Lv 2 Martial Realm and had a strong body. It was not easy to fall to death.
However, although he did not die, he was seriously injured. There were groups of low-level spirit beasts in the mountain range. In the end …
Because Li Shi was an orphan, he had no parents or relatives. After his death, under Ah Lian's efforts, the residents of Thunder Rush City buried Li Shi hastily.
Not long after Li Shi's death, Ah Lian brought Li Yu back to her family. However, someone spread the news that Li Yu was a jinx to her father. Ah Lian's family tried their best to abandon Li Yu. Ah Lian did not want Li Shi to die, so she returned to Thunder Rush City with Li Yu, who was more than one year old.
Spring passed and autumn came. Li Yu gradually grew up. Ah Lian was a married woman after all. It was difficult for her to raise Li Yu alone. During the day, she was busy outside and would leave Li Yu with Qin Yu.
