A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother-Chapter 109: The Mount Shushan Wandering Plan
Su Tong's forehead was covered in black lines.
These people didn’t know anything at all—just kept saying they'd been ambushed, poisoned by someone else.
As for who did it, whether it was someone from the Xiao family? No clue.
However, Su Tong did find something the attacker left behind.
A Mount Shushan Sword Command!
Along with a note:
"Let the juniors handle the grudges of the juniors. Show mercy when possible—this will not happen again!"
Su Tong’s face turned grim.
It felt like... like getting caught doing something shady.
Wait, no—it was doing something shady and getting caught.
And the ones who caught him were from Mount Shushan.
Judging from the note, they must’ve let the Su family off the hook on account of his granddaughter, Su Wan.
Thinking of this, Su Tong waved his hand, ordering his men to drag the useless fools back for detox treatment.
“Someone! Prepare the horses. We’re going to the Xiao family.”
At the side, Su Chunlai asked, “Father, are you personally going to wipe out the Xiao family?”
Su Tong slapped him across the face.
“All you ever think about is killing! I, Su Tong, have lived a righteous life. And I’m sworn brothers with the Xiao family’s old patriarch! Look at what you've done!”
Su Chunlai held his cheek, looking utterly wronged.
Ծ‸Ծ
“Remember, as far as we're concerned—this never happened. We’re going to... deliver warmth to the Xiao family.” Su Tong declared.
“...........”
Hidden in the shadows, Li Xuanxiao gave a small nod.
His real body, Li Xuanxiao, also nodded.
Uphold love and peace. I am the embodiment of justice.
This was the best solution Li Xuanxiao could come up with.
Of course, it was totally normal for the embodiment of justice to take some payment after doing the deed.
He now had the full wealth of three Nascent Soul cultivators and six Golden Core cultivators in his hands.
This incident served as a wake-up call for Li Xuanxiao.
He realized he hadn’t thought things through enough—he didn’t expect the Su family to be that ruthless.
Also, his clone was still a bit weak in combat.
To take down three Nascent Soul cultivators and six Golden Core cultivators, he’d relied entirely on stealth and surprise.
In a head-on fight, his clone wouldn’t have stood a chance.
Li Xuanxiao took out his little notebook to record the lessons learned from this operation.
“Soul Elder, Soul Elder...”
“...........”
Eastern Zhongzhou, within the Great Sui territory.
Xiao Ran exhaled deeply.
“Soul Elder, I feel like I’m about to form my Golden Core.”
Not long ago, Xiao Ran had absorbed a thousand-year Karma Flame Crystal.
His fire-element technique took a major leap forward.
Li Xuanxiao’s voice came from the pendant.
“Mm, very good.”
In his heart: I’m done competing with you geniuses!!
After all these years of tailing him, Li Xuanxiao was even more convinced—
This Xiao Ran was 100% a Child of Destiny. Wherever he went, lucky encounters followed.
Even just scraping leftovers behind him, Li Xuanxiao was making a killing.
Every time Xiao Ran passed through somewhere and found something special...
Li Xuanxiao would send his clone to dig a little deeper—and would always find another hidden treasure.
He was planning to publish a book titled:
“I Became Invincible by Picking Up Treasures Behind the Child of Destiny”
At that moment, Xiao Ran stood atop a towering mountain peak, stunned by its sheer height.
There was not a soul in sight for hundreds of miles around.
This area, dotted with dozens of peaks, all belonged to the Great Sui.
But due to the abundance of fierce beasts, the region was uninhabitable.
The Great Sui had tried several military clean-ups.
But these beasts just kept breeding wave after wave.
“Soul Elder, this mountain is beautiful.”
Xiao Ran sat quietly at the summit, high above the clouds, squinting his eyes and gazing down at the dreamlike view below.
In the valleys, mist drifted like gauze, curling and rising softly.
At times it was dense like cotton, blanketing the valleys completely.
Other times it was as thin as smoke, offering fleeting glimpses of the valley floor.
As a light breeze passed, the mist began to shift and flow.
Xiao Ran took a deep breath.
Then he suddenly slapped himself.
“I actually let myself slack off?! Is this the time to admire scenery? I need to take back everything I’ve lost!”
With that, Xiao Ran resumed his journey.
Li Xuanxiao nodded with a dignified “master” air.
“Xiao Ran, I’m going to sleep for a while. Just follow the path I gave you. Be careful at every step.”
Soul Elder’s voice came from the pendant.
Xiao Ran was already used to Soul Elder’s routine of randomly dozing off.
According to him, it was to nourish his soul.
Shencao Mountain.
That was the name of the mountain Xiao Ran had just climbed.
Located in the Great Sui, it was practically deserted within an 800-mile radius.
Due to the ley lines, the place was crawling with beasts and unfit for habitation.
The Great Sui could do nothing about it.
Plus, the mountain lacked resources.
So no top-tier cultivator was interested in purchasing Shencao Mountain.
The surrounding peaks faced the same fate.
But they had caught Li Xuanxiao’s eye.
Earlier, he’d been stockpiling treasure and wealth...
All to pick out one—or a few—mountain peaks.
For the sake of launching his future plan:
The Mount Shushan Wandering Plan.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
Li Xuanxiao’s grand strategy had two parts.
One was the Mount Shushan Defense Plan:
Literal meaning—fortify the mountain, prevent disaster, protect Shushan, and establish the Mount Shushan Grand Formation.
The other was the Mount Shushan Wandering Plan.
In case Shushan was ever destroyed, if the sect gate fell...
Then all the disciples would be left homeless, with no place to turn to.
They’d be forced to rely on others and constantly guard against betrayal.
So he needed to prepare ahead of time.
If the sect ever fell, he could evacuate all the Shushan disciples to Mount Shushan No. 2.
Regroup and rebuild their strength.
Li Xuanxiao had been scouting mountain peaks and hoarding treasure for years.
But ideal spots were rare, and the price was always beyond his reach.
Now, by pure luck, he’d stumbled upon the perfect peak on Xiao Ran’s journey.
The Great Sui!
Li Xuanxiao locked in his destination.
Buying a mountain wasn’t a small matter.
He’d need to coordinate with Li, who handled logistics.
But the distance was pretty far—he might need to mobilize his real body.
Li Xuanxiao quickly laid out a plan.
This was no small errand.
He had to hide his identity, ensure the route from Shushan to Great Sui was safe, and not get ripped off...
In short, he had to go in person, check out Great Sui’s internal setup,
Evaluate the stability of its imperial court, and then draft a feasibility plan.
Just as he was deep in thought, Zhao Lu burst in.
“Senior Brother! Senior Brother! The top disciples of each peak have been summoned to Tongtian Peak for a meeting!”
What’s that got to do with me?
“You forgot? The First Senior Brother ran away for love. The Second Senior Brother got hurt by love—his Dao Heart is clouded.
Third Senior Sister Lin Wanqing went down the mountain looking for Fan Yue, no one’s heard from her.
Fourth Senior Sister’s out traveling and hasn’t returned to the sect yet.
Fifth Senior Brother is around, but his wife’s about to give birth—he’s glued to her side.
Sixth Senior Sister was dumped by a scumbag and is raising the baby alone—the kid can’t be apart from her...
Seventh Senior Brother is technically free, but recently he fell in love during a journey and got engaged.
He’s now locked up at Solitary Confinement Cliff......”
Li Xuanxiao let out a long, despairing sigh.
I seriously can’t stay at Mount Shushan another day!
I’m still just a kid!!
Somehow, I—a little Junior Brother—have turned into the First Senior Brother.
