During the five-year-old talent test, everyone called her a waste, but an old man held her hand and protected her behind him, "I, the granddaughter of Luo Yuan, how can I allow you to ignore me!"
He turned around and touched her little head lovingly, smiling kindly, "Little Li'er, be good. Little Li'er is not a waste. Little Li'er just grows slower than others."
The night when she was six years old, her grandfather returned from an outing and bought her a bunch of candied haws. On a cold autumn night, the grandfather and grandson watched the rain. The old man told her, "Li'er, grandpa has to do something very important. Maybe It will take a long time to leave, but don't be afraid Li'er, grandpa will always protect you in the dark.
When Li'er grows up, grandpa will come back. Li'er must wait for grandpa. "
That time, Luo Li saw a teardrop in the eyes of this old man with gray temples for the first time.
At that time, she was still young and didn't know what the reluctance in the old man's eyes meant.
The next day, when she woke up, her grandfather was gone.
In Luo Li's heart, her grandfather is like a big mountain. He has protected her since she was a child and is her biggest support.
Even though she is a waste, she still lives the life of the apple of the eye in the Luo family.
If anyone in the Luo family treats her sincerely, it is only Luo Yuan.
Since that day, Luo Li seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world, and various nightmare tortures followed one after another.
Scorned by relatives, looked down upon by others, slandered and cursed by everyone.
Until his blood was drawn, his bones were extracted, and he was tortured to death on Sunset Peak.
Emperor Dongyu sighed, "If I remember correctly, you were only six years old when Luo Yuan went into seclusion."
"Yes." Luo Li replied.
Grandpa is not dead.
But ten years ago, it suddenly closed down.
Later, Luo Haitian became the head of the family.
"Do you know why Luo Yuan suddenly went into seclusion at that time?"
Luo Li shook his head.
Although she was young back then, she remembered that this incident was quite sensational back then.
There are no more than a hundred people in Qingling in Dongyu Kingdom, and they are all the older generation, and there is only one ninth-level Lanling.
That is the old head of the Luo family, Luo Yuan.
Even the current emperor is only at the eighth level of Blue Spirit.
Of course, Zi Ling hasn’t produced one in hundreds of years.
It can be said that Luo Yuan is the most promising to become the first Purple Spirit King of Dongyu Kingdom.
"because of you."
Luo Li raised his eyes and met Emperor Dongyu's deep eyes, "Where did the Emperor start with these words?"
"Ten years ago, I went out for training and was seriously injured. My life was hanging by a thread. It was your grandfather who devoted all his cultivation to protect my life.
Your grandfather is the head of the Luo family, the head of the four great families, and the only blue-level spiritual master in Dongyu Kingdom. There is no need to save me.
But he said that he only wanted me to protect one person when he saved me, and that was you, his granddaughter, Luo Li. "
"Why? He doesn't have to be like this. He is so strong and can protect me by himself."
"Your grandfather is indeed a powerful man in Dongyu Kingdom, but he said that his protection alone is not as important as the protection of you by a royal family.
He is old. One day, when he is gone, who will protect you? "
Luo Li's heart trembled slightly.
No matter how powerful one person is, he is still not as strong as the power of the royal family.
"And in order to survive, he had no choice but to live in seclusion. But you don't know that ten years of seclusion is the limit.
If he can't get out of seclusion within ten years, he won't be able to get out for the rest of his life.
He exchanged his cultivation for the protection of the royal family.
He spent his whole life in exchange for the Luo family's fear of you.
No matter how difficult your life has been in the Luo family these years, at least no one dares to harm you in the Luo family. "
Because of her grandfather's existence, even though the Luo family regarded her as a thorn in their flesh, Luo Haitian and Luo Qingqing could only deal with her secretly, but they did not dare to harm her blatantly.
So much so that Luo Qingqing later had murderous intentions towards her on the Sunset Peak.
"Later, I betrothed you to Ye'er precisely because of your grandfather's wishes.
Although you two don't get along, I have to say that this marriage contract does give you some protection.
In order not to cause others to be jealous, I can only pay attention to your situation secretly.
Did you know that your grandfather planned his whole life, and even if he died, he would always be thinking about how to protect you. "
There was a faint smile on Luo Li's lips.
"But grandpa doesn't know that it's better to rely on yourself than to rely on others."
Luo Qingqing and Luo Haitian should pay back ten times what they owed her at Sunset Peak!
"What is your ten-year agreement with my grandfather?"
Emperor Dongyu smiled deeply, "Ten years later, if you are alive, I will help him get out of seclusion."
"Your Majesty, you can just follow the agreement and call me to the palace. What kind of deal do you want to do with me?"
"You don't know, I am now at the eighth level of Blue Spirit. After practicing for more than ten years, I will be promoted to the ninth level of Blue Spirit. If I rashly help Luo Yuan get out of seclusion at this time, then all my efforts of more than ten years will be wasted and there will be no hope of promotion. .”
Grandpa is the number one master in Dongyu Kingdom, the only ninth-level blue spirit.
Next is Emperor Dongyu!
After ten years, he will finally be able to reappear as a master of the ninth level of Lanling.
Luo Li narrowed his eyes and raised a sarcastic smile on his lips, "Your Majesty, don't forget that if my grandfather hadn't spent all his cultivation to save your life ten years ago, you wouldn't be standing here talking to me about promotion or not. promotion.
You just lost an opportunity for promotion, and my grandfather lost all his cultivation back then! "
"But I also promised your grandfather to protect you. You are still alive. I have done what I promised him. I don't owe him anything."
"What do you want?"
Emperor Dongyu looked at her, "It's not difficult for you to ask me to help your grandfather get out of seclusion, as long as you promise me one thing."
"explain."
"Become the head of the Luo family. In one month, Luo Yuan's ten-year period will come. As long as you become the head of the Luo family within one month, I will help him get out of seclusion!
Luo Li, you should know that the Dragon Sealing Stone in Luo Yuan's secret room is a royal possession, and I am the only one who can open the Dragon Sealing Stone today. "
"Okay, I promise you!"
Emperor Dongyu was shocked, "You actually agreed."
Luo Haitian has occupied the position of head of the family for many years and is a master of Qingling. It is impossible for him to give up his position voluntarily.
"I have my own solution, so I won't bother the Emperor to worry about it.
I just hope that the emperor will keep his word. The day I become the head of the family is the day my grandfather comes out of seclusion. Otherwise, as long as I don’t die, I will find a way to overthrow your Dongyu Dynasty! "
Looking at the back of Luo Li leaving gracefully, Emperor Dongyu did not return to his senses for a long time.
Eunuch Li slowly stepped forward, "Your Majesty, do you really believe that Miss Luo Li will accomplish this impossible thing?"
Emperor Dongyu's eyes were far-reaching, "You'll know after you try it. Her daughter, I hope she won't disappoint me."
…
Luo Li went to the back hill of the Luo family ancestral hall and looked at the dragon sealing stone that had existed for countless years.
Grandpa has been in seclusion in the stone chamber behind this stone for ten years.
Before she was six years old, she always had an old but majestic body protecting her. Her grandfather's presence was like a mountain, helping her block many dangers.
From those memories that had been dusted for a long time, Luo Li could feel the old man's deep love for her.
