Visiting the Li Clan 1 Part I

In the morning, Bai Zhe cleaned his entire house using qi and made breakfast before his mother came out of the bedroom. This had turned into his morning routine for his family.

The Mu Tian commercial filming would start next week, Wednesday to Friday. He had to fill in a document to take leave from school for the shooting. One thing that he was lacking was experience. Though he had done some research about commercials of various brands of cosmetics last night, he could only imitate them. Thus, he called Xi Lua, asking for something.

The phone rang for a while, then the call was picked up, followed by the sound of Xi Lua’s voice, which was filled with happiness.

“How are you, my beloved grandson? Did anyone bully you?” Xi Lua asked with concern. Lately, Bai Zhe was busy with LSA’s classes, which made them not have time to meet each other, and Xi Lua was busy with work as well. So, when the boy called him, Xi Lua was very happy.

“Nobody bullied me. I called to ask you if you know any highly experienced male models? I got a commercial job from Mu Tian Company, but I don’t have any experience, so I want to ask them for advice and suggestions,” said Bai Zhe.

“Oh, I know someone. I can contact him for you. What day do you want it to be?” asked Xi Lua.

“Can It be tomorrow?” asked Bai Zhe.

“Sure. I will tell him. He’s working behind the scenes now so he’s not that busy, but he is rather fussy, like a girl,” said Xi Lua.

“Thank you so much. Then, could you arrange an appointment to have a meal with you? So, I can see you as well.” Bai Zhe was afraid that Xi Lua might get lonely. He owed Xi Lua a lot. It was time for him to pay him back.

“All right, I will arrange the meeting for you tomorrow,” said Xi Lua. His voice became livelier. Before hanging up the phone, Xi Lua said something softly. “Thank you for worrying about the feelings of an old man like me.”

Bai Zhe’s guess had been right. Even though Xi Mo had come back from abroad, he still had a lot of work to do. He did not even have time to call Xi Lua. Bai Zhe decided that after he started working in the industry, he would tell his manager to schedule a day off for him once a week so he could spend time with his family.

After Xi Lua hung up the phone, the Li Clan sent him a message stating that they would send a car to pick him up and for Bai Zhe to wait at a bus stop. He waited for only a short time before a black car pulled up before him. Bai Zhe could sense the threatening qi being sent out toward him. It was likely a test for him.

‘Huh, this child. Having just basic qi, but wanting to test me,’ thought Bai Zhe. He sent the deadly psychic power back immediately, making the person in the car choke on his own blood. He tried to hold it in his mouth, preventing it from staining his boss’s car. Then, he got out and opened the door for Bai Zhe politely.

“Don’t do that again. If the other party had not been me, that person might not have gone easy on you,” Bai Zhe warned while he was leading to the back seat. After that, he closed his eyes.

“Yes, sir. Thank you, Dr. Bai, for your mercy.” Though the man looked polite on the outside, inside he was screaming, regretting that he tried to pick a fight with the wrong person. If Bai Zhe reported this to Matron Li, he would surely be sent to Lao Lao.

The car drove out of the city, through numerous mountains. Then, Bai Zhe spotted a mansion standing on the top of a mountain. It was surrounded by ancient stone walls that looked like city walls. He could sense the qi of many martial artists there. The highest level of qi that he felt was the emperor qi.

“Apart from me, another guest is staying in the house, isn’t there?” said Bai Zhe.

“Dr. Bai, how can you know that? It is as you said. A young miss from the Baii Clan is visiting Matron Li. She will be here for 2 to 3 days,” said a man sitting next to the driver.

“Hmm?” Bai Zhe was surprised that in this world, the Baii Clan was still alive. He guessed that the person who had the emperor qi must be Miss Baii.

“The first level of emperor qi is gushing out to this extent…It would be strange if you cannot sense the difference. Matron Li Zhou Ma, who has the highest level of qi in the Li Clan, has the sky qi. But now there is someone in the mansion who has a higher level of qi there. So, I guessed that you might have a visitor,” explained Bai Zhe.

The driver and the man sitting next to him broke out into simultaneous cold sweats. They thought, ‘You are the scary one. You can tell that someone has emperor qi. If your level is not equal to or higher than Miss Baii, you won’t be able to distinguish the level of power.’

The two men were being more careful about their gestures and their words. The driver was concentrating hard so that the drive would not bumpy and disturb the man in the back seat. Because it was like they were carrying a nuclear bomb that could explode at any time in the car.

‘When will we arrive? The stuff in my stomach almost came out,’ Bai Zhe mentally cursed. Yes, he was still not used to traveling by car for long distances. And the road to the mansion was zigzagged, which made him get even more nauseous.

The car had arrived at a gate that was built of wood and iron, like an ancient city’s gate. When the car approached the gate, it was slowly opened, sending out echoing squeaks all over the area before the car entered the main road to the mansion, which was located at the centre.

Both sides of the road were full of martial artists, with ages ranging from 5 to 50 years old. The highest level of qi of these people, who were lined up, was just basic qi. Just by scanning, Bai Zhe could see all the mistakes in their qi practice routines.

The car pulled up in front of the main building of the Li mansion not long after that. Bai Zhe saw Matron Li, Li Feng, Li Xi Yan, two girls, and one boy waiting for him at the building’s main entrance. Apart from them, there were seven men and women, who were middle-aged to elderly.

‘That girl is surely the genius. She’s still young but can reach the emperor qi,’ thought Bai Zhe, before fixing his clothes and opening the door to get out of the car.
