Chapter 631 - 1: Worldly Society Turmoil (Part 1) (Extra)
A paternity test report was once again posted online, suggesting that Bai Xiaojun’s biological mother had also been suspicious back then and had conducted a paternity test directly.
In Bai Xiaojun’s mother’s view, if the child was Bai He’s, she could benefit and perhaps convince Bai He to have a change of heart and bring the child along.
Her marriage to that man would also have a rationale: claiming that she had no choice but to marry to protect the child because she was pregnant.
She could even deceive Bai He, claiming that no man had been intimate with her.
Unfortunately, the child was not Bai He’s.
The document clearly stated that Bai Xiaojun was indeed her father’s daughter.
At that time, Li Shuning had compared Bai Xiaojun’s and Bai He’s hair, but they were indeed not father and daughter.
However, this did not prevent Li Shuning from stirring up trouble in various ways.
Bai Xiaojun breathed a sigh of relief and called her boyfriend, but he never picked up.
After all, no one would want a paralyzed woman, especially one who lies constantly, and his family had voiced their concerns about his choice of a girlfriend.
Because Bai He was in a coma, Bai Siyang, as his son, entrusted a lawyer to sue Bai Xiaojun.
Much of the money Bai Xiaojun had taken was indefensible.
A lot of her money was recovered.
Bai Xiaojun had squandered a lot, and now she was paralyzed.
The money was mostly taken back, she couldn’t walk or go out to work, yet she no longer had the courage to seek death.
In this city that was once sweet, now cold and heartless, every day, she endured the pain to go begging.
Slowly, Bai Xiaojun went mad.
After Li Shuning learned of this situation, she relaxed, considering the task accomplished.
She left the puppet behind and took the opportunity to leave and went into seclusion in another city to start cultivating.
Bai He died within a few years.
Bai Xiaojun’s situation was even worse. She had bought a house in that city back then, and after her money was recovered, a house was left for her to live in.
However, since Bai Xiaojun went mad, she was targeted for the house, and eventually lost it, ending up homeless and ultimately freezing to death.
After spending forty years in this world, Li Shuning returned to the real world.
This time, Li Shuning brought back a movable tiny house.
This house was actually developed by the Bai Group, incredibly practical, and made of excellent materials.
The tiny house was also stored in Li Shuning’s Qiankun Ring.
Not long after returning to the real world, she once again entered the task world.
Li Shuning didn’t mind, as she was eager to enter the task world more often, time was of the essence, after all.
"Elder sister, it’s getting late, and we’re nowhere near a village or a store, why don’t we rest here for a while?" a girl who looked only about thirteen or fourteen said to Li Shuning.
Li Shuning hesitated, glanced around, then nodded without saying a word.
She hadn’t received the storyline yet and didn’t want anything unusual to happen.
She sat down under a tree, leaned against the trunk, and narrowed her eyes.
The others began to get busy, some collecting firewood, some went hunting, and some set up guards to prevent enemy attacks.
There were about six or seven of them, all in tight-fitting outfits, each with a sword, appearing to be martial artists.
Li Shuning herself extended her spiritual power outward for a look; though she didn’t hold a sword in hand, a soft whip was coiled around her waist.
She wore a bright red outfit with some tassels around the waist, which was different from the others.
"Xiao Six, receive the storyline."
Li Shuning had her spiritual power wrapped around herself, just in case, while she received the storyline.
This world was a martial arts world.
Chivalry violated the laws, and as rulers, they were very discontent with the martial artists.
Especially in this world, there were many with high martial arts skills, and the court had many concerns about them.
In the storyline, the original character was born in a martial arts family, the Li Family was the leader of the Six Great Families.
Proficient in Pianran Swordsmanship, almost unmatched.
Yet the only daughter loved using a whip.
This sole daughter was of course the original protagonist.
The original character had great talent, though she loved using a whip, she also practiced Pianran Swordsmanship and had her unique insights, integrating it into her whip technique.
When she wielded her whip, no contemporary could beat her.
The original character’s status was somewhat special.
She was the Li Family’s only daughter, in such a grand family, she was the sole heir in the direct lineage.
Moreover, among the new generation of the Li Family, she held an irreplaceable position.
So after the original character came of age, the threshold of the Li Family was nearly trampled down.
The other families also came to propose marriage.
However, the Li Family Master, being a doting father, was excellent to his daughter and would not force her if she wasn’t interested.
And the original character declared that she wouldn’t consider anyone who couldn’t defeat her.
As a result, at eighteen, the original character still wasn’t married.
The original character didn’t mind staying at home if not marrying.
At that time, she could adopt a child from a branch family, raise them well, and let the family continue to shine, couldn’t she?
The original character was quite broad-minded.
However, such a straightforward and open-minded woman fell when encountering some unscrupulous people.
Li Shuning arrived in this world just as the original character went out with her junior brothers and sisters.
This outing was to attend the Martial Arts Tournament.
The Martial Arts Tournament is held every five years, and it’s not just to select the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, but also an opportunity for the younger generation to showcase themselves and communicate.
This was the original character’s second time attending the Martial Arts Tournament.
The families didn’t compete for the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, technically speaking, the family status is even higher than that of the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch.
But letting the juniors go experience it, several families were willing.
However, while other families were led by elders, it was the original character leading the Li Family.
The original character wasn’t weak, so the Li Family Master made this choice.
The court had been tolerant of the martial world’s power for a long time, and every Martial Arts Tournament, sent spies to monitor it.
This time, the Third Prince even disguised himself and personally led people to Dragon City.
The name of Dragon City was a major taboo.
Yet the martial artists were used to their freedom.
In their opinion, at the Martial Arts Tournament, it’s up to one’s own strength whether one is a dragon or a bug, and through competition, the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch is selected. So the place was called Dragon City, meaning "a carp leaping through the dragon gate". Success meant entering another world.
Making a name for oneself would also garner much attention.
Martial artists loved this city.
But the current Emperor loathed Dragon City.
He was the only Son of Heaven, but those lowly warriors dared to name the city after a dragon, which was intolerable.
