Please, I Really Didn't Want To Fall in Love With My Master!

Chapter 256: Fathers Kindness and Filial Piety, Dont Let Waiting Become a Regret

Two women looked at Li Ran.

Sheng Zhixia's eyes flickered with joy. Corners of her mouth curled up slightly as if she was extremely happy.

However, Sheng Anyi's eyes were a little vague. Her expression was shy and uneasy, like a child who had done something wrong.

Li Ran didn't pay much attention. After greeting the two princesses, he turned to look at Li Daoyuan.

"Father, I'm back. Did you miss me?"

Corners of Li Daoyuan's mouth twitched, and he said with difficulty, "Yes, yes."

Li Ran smiled and said, "Your expression seems to be very secret. Aren't you being too careless?"

"Father's heart hasn't been very good lately." Li Daoyuan couldn't help asking, "Li Ran, aren't you going home a little too often?"

It hadn’t been that long since the cancellation of the engagement. It was already the third time he had gone home.

Going home wasn't a big deal, but every time this kid came back, he would bring him a huge "surprise".

Li Daoyuan was really worried that his heart couldn't hold on.

Li Ran shrugged. "I came back for the Immortal Ascension Assembly. I made an agreement with that little girl, Shen Ning."

"Shen Ning?" Li Daoyuan nodded.

Li Ran had mentioned this to him before.

"With such a small matter, I can help you settle it. Why would I need you to come personally? What if you delay your cultivation? You should hurry back." Li Daoyuan persuaded.

Li Ran smiled. "I'm just here to see you. I'll give you more care and companionship. Don't let waiting become a regret."

Li Daoyuan's smile stiffened. "You don't have to worry about your father. Cultivation is more important."

"Filial piety comes first. How can cultivation be more important than you?"

"As expected of you, still so filial." Seeing this scene, Sheng Zhixia praised, "Uncle Li, the atmosphere in your home is too good. It really is father's kindness and filial piety."

Li Daoyuan curled his lips. "Really? Haha… He's really filial."

Sheng Anyi looked at Li Ran shyly. She recalled the embarrassing scene.

Did Li Ran show it to anyone?

Had he seen it himself?

Had he done anything strange?

As soon as she thought of these questions, her face was burning hot as if she had a fever.

Li Ran noticed her gaze and blinked at her with a smile.

Sheng Anyi's cheeks turned redder as she lowered her head in panic.

At this moment, the other party's spirit voice transmission sounded in her mind, "Princess Sheng, don't worry. I've never shown the image to anyone."

Sheng Anyi heaved a sigh of relief. "I believe in Sheng Zi Li…"

Before she could finish her sentence, Li Ran's voice rang out again. "Other than myself."

Sheng Anyi's body trembled, and a blush spread from her cheeks to her ears.

She suppressed her shyness and said softly, "I've already seen it in the bedroom. It won't make any difference if I look at him a few more times. I just hope you don't do anything strange."

Li Ran was taken aback. "What strange thing? Princess Sheng, can you make it clear?"

Sheng Anyi lowered her head and said, "Sheng Zi Li should know this better than I do…"

Looking at that bashful look, he shook his head in amusement.

Princess Jinyun was clearly an Imperial daughter, but she didn't have the slightest air of arrogance. Instead, she was as pure and delicate as gardenia.

No one could bear to bully her.

Sheng Zhixia didn't notice her sister's reaction and said, "Sheng Zi Li, the Immortal Ascension Assembly this time is unprecedented in scale. All the top sects have arrived, and almost all of them are the Chief disciples."

Li Ran nodded. "I've heard about this. It looks like they all want to make some progress in this assembly."

Most people wanted to enter the Immortal Sects.

However, super geniuses with peerless talent were the targets of competition among the various sects. They did not hesitate to fight over it.

Back then, Li Ran's saint-grade talent had shocked the vast land. The top sects had broken their heads because of this. In the end, he joined the Youluo Temple.

There was also Lin Langyue with the innate Daoism body, Yue Jianli with the bone-deep sword intent, and Xiao Qingge with the transcendent talent.

Only top-tier sects were qualified to compete for these geniuses.

The other first-rate and second-rate sects could only stand aside.

Of course, the most important thing was will.

Therefore, the sect's prestige and popularity were also important indicators.

Sheng Zhixia smiled and said, "Although the Youluo Temple is a Devil sect, it does not have a bad reputation. Sheng Zi Li is a hero of the human race, and he is a powerful devil. He must gain a lot."

Li Ran smiled. "Then let's borrow the princess' blessing."

His main reason for coming back this time was because of Shen Ning.

But if he could recruit a few geniuses for the sect, then why not?

At this moment, a servant knocked on the door. "Master, there are guests outside."

Li Daoyuan frowned. "Didn't you see the princess? Tell the other party that Li Residence has closed its doors to thank the guests."

"But…" The servant hesitated for a moment and said, "That person said she is the Young Master's friend."

Li Ran raised his eyebrows. "What's their name? Male or female?"

Servant replied, "It's a girl. I don't know her name. She only said her surname is Qin."

Li Ran smiled.

Needless to say, he knew who it was.

"It's my friend. Please welcome her to the reception hall."

"Yes." The servant retreated.

After a while, a graceful woman slowly walked in.

She was wearing a black veil, and her slim figure was faintly discernible. However, when she looked carefully, she could not see the spring scenery.

Even with the black veil on her face, she still could not hide her astonishing charm.

She was Qin Ruyan.

A trace of surprise flashed through her eyes when she saw Li Ran.

"This servant greets Master Li, greets Uncle Li… The two princesses are also here?"

"Holy Maiden Qin." Sisters stood up and nodded.

Li Daoyuan's brows twitched, but he still said with a smile, "Holy Maiden Qin is here. Please sit down."

"Uncle Li, don't be polite. Just call me Ruyan." Qin Ruyan obediently sat on the chair.

She looked at Li Ran, her eyes filled with resentment.

This guy had actually left her alone in the restaurant, and it was an important moment for her to gather her courage!

It was too hateful!

Li Ran rubbed his nose, looking a little embarrassed.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to speak, a servant walked in." Young Master, we have another visitor. They said they’re your friend."

"Ah?"

Li Ran was taken aback. "Who is it now?"

The servant said, "It's a girl. She said her surname is Yue."

Li Ran immediately understood. "I know her. Let her in."

"Yes."

……

Li Daoyuan sat in his chair and looked at the four girls in front of him. His eyes were blank.

Princess Jinyun, Sheng Anyi, Princess Jiaolong, Sheng Zhixia, the Holy Maiden Qin Ruyan, and the Chief of the Myriad Swords Pavilion, Yue Jianli, all obediently sat in front of him.

Li Daoyuan felt like his heart was about to stop.

"It shouldn't be too late to sever the relationship between father and son, right?"
