Wu Shattered Star River

Si Li had a straightforward personality and didn't like to beat around the bush. She nodded and said, "Yes, Jiang Han is surrounded by more than a dozen Earth Immortals. If no one helps him this time, he will definitely die."

The old man's name was Si Wujian, the Mountain Lord of Sword Demon Mountain, and Si Li's grandfather.

He slowly stood up, turned to look at Si Li, gazing into her pure and clear eyes.

He looked at her for a long while before saying, "My little Li'er has finally been moved by mortal emotions? Do you like Jiang Han?"

Si Li's expression didn't fluctuate much, and she didn't blush or become shy like an ordinary girl.

Her eyes were clear as she said, "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Jiang Han and I are just friends. Moreover, I want to save him, not because of matters of love, but because Jiang Han is a genius."

"I don't want him to die young like this. Didn't you say that the three races are ready to make trouble, and there will inevitably be a war with the human race?"

"If a genius like Jiang Han dies like this, who will the human race rely on to fight against the three races in the future? Rely on the courtesans of Qingyi Palace who only know how to charm men?"

Si Wujian was silent, and Si Li said again, "Grandpa, you should know Jiang Han's talent. He only broke through to the Mountain and Sea Realm when he first entered the Flying Immortal Palace, and now he slaughters Void Breaking Realm experts like pigs and dogs."

"He is from a humble background. If such a genius dies young, it will be a great loss to our human race."

"I can guarantee that if Jiang Han is given a few decades to grow, he will definitely achieve the God Realm, and even become an Undying-level powerhouse."

"That is the real backbone supporting our human race, the guardian and savior of our race."

"Undying Realm?"

Si Wujian chuckled and said, "Do you really think there is an Undying Realm in this world? I won't hide it from you… The Palace Lord of the God Ruins Palace should be the number one expert of the human race in this era, and his realm is only the peak of the God Realm."

"Uh…"

This was the first time Si Li had heard of this, which somewhat subverted her understanding.

Isn't there supposed to be nine realms in this world? If there is no Undying Realm, how did this realm come about? Could it be imagined out of thin air?

She pondered for a moment and asked, "Didn't the three Human Emperors who founded the human race reach the Undying Realm either?"

"They did!"

Si Wujian stroked his long beard and said, "However, they mysteriously perished not long after breaking through to the Undying Realm, and the three Emperors perished at the same time."

"There are no living Undying Realm experts in this world. Not in the human race, nor in the demon, barbarian, or demon races!"

Si Li was slightly stunned and murmured, "They mysteriously perished at the same time. Who killed them?"

"Don't ask about these things!"

Si Wujian didn't answer, but sighed and said, "Grandpa admits that Jiang Han is a peerless genius, and may achieve the God Realm in the future. But… it is inconvenient for us to intervene in this matter, otherwise, it would be declaring war on Qingyi Palace and Star Pavilion."

"Even if Jiang Han is an unrelated person, even if he is a disciple of Sword Demon Mountain, Grandpa can't protect him."

"Si Li!"

Si Wujian's eyes became sharp, and he said in a cold tone, "You are going to take over Sword Demon Mountain in the future. You must not be emotional at any time. You must always prioritize the interests of Sword Demon Mountain."

"Even if you like Jiang Han, or Jiang Han has become your husband, we cannot act recklessly for the sake of Sword Demon Mountain's eternal foundation…"

Si Li was silent. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her head again, her eyes still incomparably firm. She said, "Grandpa, I will issue a notice to leave Sword Demon Mountain. I will go to save Jiang Han in my personal capacity, so that Sword Demon Mountain will not be implicated."

"When I break through to the Earth Immortal Realm, I will have the strength to contend with Qingyi Palace, and then I will come back."

"Leave Sword Demon Mountain?"

Si Wujian was stunned, then stared at Si Li and asked, "Are your feelings for Jiang Han so deep? You can abandon your family for him?"

"I said, it has nothing to do with romantic love!"

Si Li's eyes were clear, and her expression was open. She said firmly, "I have a feeling that saving Jiang Han this time is equivalent to preserving the hope of the human race's future."

"I always believe that Jiang Han in the future will definitely become the top powerhouse of the human race, able to shield the human race from wind and rain, and fight against the three races!"

Si Wujian didn't say anything more. He knew this granddaughter's character too well.

She had been very opinionated since she was a child and had her own thoughts. She couldn't be persuaded by anyone about what she thought was right. She only did what she liked, and ignored everything else.

It was precisely because of her character, because of her purity, that Si Li's talent in swordsmanship was so amazing, surpassing the past ancestors of the Si family, comparable to the founding ancestor of the Si family.

In Si Wujian's heart, the possibility of Si Li achieving the God Realm was very high.

If…

He were to lock Si Li up at this moment, or use the constraints of family affection to make Si Li change her mind.

Wouldn't that let her Dao heart be covered in dust? Make her no longer so pure? And then affect her future growth?

Si Wujian was very worried.

His heart became very tangled. He turned around and cast his gaze towards the bottom of the cliff, looking at a large city below, looking at the countless living beings in the city as small as ants.

"Forget it!"

After a long time, Si Wujian sighed slightly and said, "You can go if you want, but you need to promise me three conditions."

Si Li's eyes lit up and said, "Grandpa, please tell me."

Si Wujian turned around, his expression solemn, and said, "First, you must protect yourself at all times. I know that your sword path has entered the third level. When you release the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique, you have a chance to severely injure a low-level Earth Immortal. But you are only in the Void Breaking Realm after all. You can't withstand the power of an Earth Immortal!"

Si Li nodded slightly and said, "Grandpa, I remember. I'm going to save people, not to die."

Si Wujian continued, "Second, I will let three Supreme Elders follow you. You don't need to leave Sword Demon Mountain either."

"You take a few Deceiving Heaven Fruits with you, which can disguise your appearance for several days. When necessary, you must listen to the orders of the three Supreme Elders."

Si Li was silent, thought for a while, and nodded.

Si Wujian continued, "Third, you must not kill any Earth Immortals from Qingyi Palace and Star Pavilion, at most severely injure them, otherwise, if things get out of hand, we won't be able to clean up the mess."

Si Li nodded very readily this time and said, "I just want to save Jiang Han, I don't want to kill people."

"Buzz~"

A jade pendant appeared in Si Wujian's hand, and he personally put it around Si Li's neck. He said with a kind face, "This thing can save your life at a critical moment. If the jade pendant breaks, you must leave immediately and not interfere in this matter anymore."

"This…"

Si Li grabbed the jade pendant around her neck, her eyes were a little red, and she looked up at Si Wujian and said, "Grandpa, this is your life-saving jade talisman, I can't take it…"

"Silly child!"

Si Wujian smiled and touched Si Li's head and said, "Who else can hurt me besides a God Realm expert? If a God Realm expert wants to kill me, this thing is useless."

"Okay!"

Si Li didn't continue, she bowed deeply, and said softly, "Grandpa, I'm leaving!"

"Go!"

Si Wujian smiled and waved his hand and said, "Go find your good friend, if this matter can be resolved satisfactorily in the end, bring your good friend back for Grandpa to see."

"I want to see how handsome this kid is, that he can make my little Li'er go to save him at all costs."

"Grandpa~"

Si Li heard the implication in Si Wujian's words, glared at Si Wujian, then stomped her foot and turned and flew away.

"Hahaha!"

Si Wujian smiled and watched Si Li leave. His eyes became deep, and he cast his gaze towards Tianluan Island, murmuring, "Is Jiang Han really… the son of that person from the Goddess Diagram? Lan Lin, will you take action this time?"
