When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 585 - 246 Light Foundation Establishment_2

The puppy sniffed with its nose, opened its mouth, and bit, but its little teeth were too short and weak. After biting for a long time, it could only take off a bit, which made Li Xiu laugh heartily.

"This puppy just born, you want it to eat meat, can it digest that?" Li Qingyi rolled her eyes at him, brought over a cup of milk, poured it into a dish, and placed it in front of the puppy.

The puppy immediately lay down in the dish and licked vigorously, its pink little tongue slurping hard.

Seeing the puppy so energetic, the two continued their conversation by themselves.

After the puppy finished the milk in the dish, it turned its attention to the bottle of wine it had knocked over.

It crawled over wobbly, gnawed at the cap for a long time, and finally bit a crack in it. Wine seeped out, and it quickly extended its little tongue to lick. It shivered after the first lick, its little face twisting, but once it recovered, it went to lick again, with a face full of enjoyment.

By the time Li Xiu and Li Qingyi noticed, this little guy had already drunk more than half the bottle and was holding onto it, swaying dizzily.

"This puppy started drinking right after being born, it’ll definitely be a drunkard in the future." Li Qingyi laughed.

"A drunkard is better than a man-eater." Li Xiu said.

...

Li Changyin and Han Minghui’s faces didn’t look good. Ever since Bai Wanli returned, their expressions hadn’t improved.

"Are you saying Su Bancheng and Han Mingshou were killed by that magic spirit?" Li Changyin looked at Bai Wanli and asked.

"Indeed, Patriarchs. If it weren’t for Wan Chaocun’s timely arrival, I’m afraid Wan Chaoxin and I wouldn’t have come back." Bai Wanli said with a bitter face.

"You’re certain my brother was killed by the magic spirit?" Han Minghui stared coldly at Bai Wanli, her gaze like a sharp blade, as if she wanted to cut open his head to see if what Bai Wanli said was true or false.

"Vice President Han, what do you mean by that? Are you suggesting that I killed them?" Bai Wanli said, his face turning stern.

"Then what’s with Li Xiu? Why isn’t he dead?" Han Minghui asked again.

"Speaking of this matter, it’s even more infuriating. Originally, we thought that once Wan Chaocun arrived, Li Xiu would be dead for sure. But who knew that Li Xiu actually knew Wan Chaocun, and they are even sworn siblings. I heard Wan Chaocun call him fourth brother, and I knew things wouldn’t work, so I came back." Bai Wanli said.

"What? Li Xiu and Wan Chaocun are sworn siblings?" Both Li Changyin and Han Minghui were taken aback upon hearing this.

"Absolutely true. I personally heard Wan Chaocun call Li Xiu fourth brother, and Wan Chaocun admitted it himself." Bai Wanli said.

"Does Wan Chaoxin know about this?" Li Changyin frowned and asked.

"He probably doesn’t. That kid was dumbfounded when he heard Wan Chaocun call Li Xiu fourth brother. I bet he’s even more upset than I am." Bai Wanli said.

Li Changyin looked at Han Minghui and said, "Originally, we brought Wan Chaoxin into the fold to make him take the blame for killing Li Xiu. We never expected Li Xiu to have a connection with Wan Chaocun. That was my oversight."

Han Minghui sighed and said, "This matter can’t be blamed on Patriarch Li. No one expected Li Xiu to have a connection with Wan Chaocun. This move was wrong from the start."

"Now that the Wan family and Li Xiu have colluded, missing this opportunity, it will be even harder to deal with them." Li Changyin also sighed.

"Patriarch Li, you worry too much. Opportunities will always arise. Li Xiu and Wan Chaoxin have just become Commanders. As Commanders, they have obligations to fulfill. If something happens while they’re carrying out tasks, no one can be blamed." Han Minghui said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Li Changyin smiled and said, "What tasks do you plan to assign them, Vice President Han, since you are overseeing task distribution?"

"Elder Dao, who guards the Tianmen, is getting on in years and has old injuries. Continuing to guard Tianmen is just a temporary measure; stepping down is only a matter of time. Tianmen still needs someone to guard it. Since Li Xiu and Wan Chaoxin have already been to Tianmen and have some understanding of it, let them succeed Elder Dao." Han Minghui said without any expression.

"Elder Dao won’t be stepping down for a while. Is it too far in the future?" Li Changyin pondered aloud.

"Let’s have them follow Elder Dao first to familiarize themselves with the situation at Tianmen. Let Elder Dao guide them for a smooth transition." Han Minghui said, glancing at Li Changyin, "I heard Elder Dao has a good relationship with you, Patriarch Li. You might need to speak to him."

"As long as Vice President Han can arrange for them to guard Tianmen, leave the rest to me." Li Changyin paused and then said, "However, this can only proceed after Wan Chaocun returns, to avoid any more trouble."

"Of course." Han Minghui said, then looked at Bai Wanli, "Vice President Bai, I’ll need your help to take me to Tianmen. I want to pay my respects to my brother."

"Certainly." Bai Wanli nodded.

...

When Li Xiu returned to Courtyard No. 7, it was already morning. He locked the puppy in the east wing and went to his room. He slept until noon before getting up.

Sha Chu had already prepared lunch. After they ate, Li Xiu went to the east wing to fetch the puppy.

This little guy was still tipsy, wobbling on the table, and would fall over after just a few steps.

Li Xiu took out a needle and pricked a Blood Seal Stone, extracting a drop of blood from the puppy and dropping it onto the Blood Seal Stone.
