章節 63: Overall Plan

"F-Father?!" Shi Li was shocked after recognizing that the familiar silhouette behind him was actually his father, Shi Xingwan. "W-What are you doing here?"

Shi Xingwan couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at his son's surprised face. With a fake frowning expression on his face, he asked, "What? Are you telling me that I'm not allowed to watch my child participate in a tournament?"

Shi Li then realized that he was somewhat rude in manner of talking. Slightly bowing his head, he replied, "No, it's not like that Father! It's just that... you're a busy man, and well...with the Huang clan wanting to attack our clan...I was truly surprised to see you here."

Of course, Shi Li wasn't an idiot, with the previous owner of his current body being killed to the point where he transmigrated to this body, it was evident that were tensions between the two clans, or perhaps, even the three clans that were in Verdant Breeze Town.

Shi Xingwan looked at his son with a gaze of slight surprise and asked, "How do you know that?"

Shi Li let out a soft sigh and replied in the most formal and most respectful manner he could, "Well first off Father, I was nearly killed by one of their clan members, wanting me to spill out some information on one of our techniques."

"Also, the challenges you gave me were in preparation for the Tri-clan tournament, right? You really want me to participate there, right?" Shi Li continued. This was the culmination of all of the things he has seen and heard throughout the past few months. He knew he was used as a tool of sorts, but he didn't know what kind.

"This..." Shi Xingtai was at a loss for words while looking at Shi Li. Who knew, that a 16 year old, who was mostly a playboy for most of his life, would be able to deduce that far ahead?

Even this shocked Shi Xingwan. At that instant, he couldn't help but feel a lot of guilt as he looked at his son before saying, "My child... I'm sorry. It's just that..."

Of course, since Shi Xingwan was his father in the current life that actually cared for him a lot compared to the parents he had in his previous life, he didn't really want to make his father feel guilty. He also read it in the novels he read in his previous life, that the protagonist would be forced to do things he didn't want to do, although he didn't know if he was the protagonist or not.

"Father, it's fine." Shi Li gave out a wry smile. "I know that our clan is going to have to fight against the Huang clan sooner or later, but you shouldn't really keep me in the dark about this Father. Who knows if I actually wanted to help you win this fight?"

"This..." Seeing that his son was not mad at him at all but instead was supportive of helping him out, Shi Xingwan couldn't help but let out a sigh and smiled. "Haah...to think that my son wants to help me out. Alright, I'll tell you everything I know."

"Do you know the reason why the Huang clan has been instigating a fight with our clan?" Shi Xingwan decided to sit beside the two and looked at Shi Li as he asked.

"It's because of the World grade technique, right?" Shi Li knew this already. Shi Xingwan nodded as he replied, "Yep. Mortal, Spirit, World. Only a World grade technique or higher would make a clan move like this. But did you know that there was another reason for this?"

"There is?" Of course, Shi Li did not know this so he leaned towards his father to listen to the answer.

Noticing the actions of his son, Shi Xingwan replied without hesitation, "This is because...our clan is basically offsetting the balance of power within Verdant Breeze Town."

"Eh?" This time, Shi Li was at a loss for words. The clan he lived in for two months, his home? Offsetting the balance of power?

"How so?" Shi Li, knowing that there was probably more to this reason, asked.

"Around 20 or so years ago, we were just a large family within the town, not even close to obtaining the status level of a clan," Shi Xingwan decided to explain.

"I was only in my early 20s back then, and it was at that time that the reason for the clan's rise appeared."

"What was the reason?" Shi Li looked at his father with a curious gaze.

Shi Xingwan knew that this reason was related to Shi Li so instead of answering Shi Li's question, he gave off a mysterious aura as he said, "Well... you'll find out in the future. When the time is right."

Shi Li tilted his head sideways as he knew that his father was deliberately hiding something, but it seemed that it was for his own good so he didn't bother to probe further.

Seeing that their conversation was over, Shi Xingwan stood up and smiled once more at Shi Li. "My child, now that I know that you want to help our clan prosper, I'll be changing the prize you get once you reach the top 10."

"An auxiliary movement technique is not your prize anymore, but instead you'll be gaining access to all of the techniques in our clan library at any time you want. You have to let me know which techniques you chose, of course," Shi Xingwan said.

At this moment, Shi Li's motivation to aim for the top 10 was now ignited to an extremely high degree. Having access to all of the techniques in the clan library? That would help him create an ideal combination, and perhaps allow him to make a new and unique technique!

Of course, Shi Xingwan was not finished. "Oh, and also, every week, come to my office so I can give you 5 Spirit Gathering Pills. This will last until the Tri-clan tournament starts so you better reach the Martial Adept stage at the least and enter the Shi Trial Tower!"

With his motivation being ignited further, Shi Li stood up and looked at his father with a confident grin. "Rest assured Father! I won't let your expectations down!"

Shi Xingwan couldn't help but chuckle at his son's actions as he looked at his brother that was beside Shi Li. "Keep an eye on him, brother. Also, don't forget the meeting, okay?"

Shi Xingtai, who was listening by the side all this time, stood up and smiled back. "I will, brother. Don't you worry. And also, I'll come to the meeting, don't worry."

With that, Shi Xingwan slightly chuckled as he waved his hand as he gradually walked farther and farther away from the two, disappearing from the view after a few more seconds.

At this time, only Shi Xingtai and Shi Li were the ones left in the center stage of the clan arena. Shi Xingtai placed his hand on Shi Li's shoulder and said, "Have a good rest this time. If you cultivate, that's good as well. I wish you the best of luck in tomorrow's tournament."

Shi Li looked at Shi Xingtai with a slight smile before walking down the raised platform to head back to his courtyard.

"Thanks Uncle, I'll definitely do my best tomorrow."

"I won't let your and my father's expectations down."
