58: Li Chengfeng sending his daughter-in-law
He took out his phone and dialed the string of numbers.
A 'doo-doo-doo' sound rang out, and after about ten seconds, the call connected.
"Hello? Who is this?" Li Chengfeng's voice came from the other end, sounding a bit impatient.
"My father's name is Li Zun."
.... The voice of Li Chengfeng on the other end disappeared, seemingly falling into a brief silence.
"You're Brother Li's son?"
"If the 'Brother Li' you're referring to is my father, then yes."
"Holy crap! Brother Li actually has a son!"
"No, wait! Doesn't that mean my sister has no hope?"
"No! There's still hope!"
"Even being a concubine would be good."
This time, it was Li Yao's turn to fall silent.
I call you, and you tell me you want to give me your sister as a concubine?
Li Yao felt that if his mother found out, she would surely flay Li Chengfeng alive.
"Um, Uncle, if my mother finds out..."
"I almost forgot, what's your mother's name?"
"My mother's name is Yang Qian."
"Yang Qian... Yang Qian?!"
"Holy moly! Brother Li actually managed to get Sister Yang!"
"That's impressive!"
"Never mind, never mind, I won't introduce my sister to Brother Li after all."
"My sister is timid; she wouldn't be able to fight Sister Yang."
Li Yao felt that he was still a child and should not get involved in adult matters.
However, if his father ever dared to mistreat him, this would be a trump card.
Fortunately, he had a call recording, which counted as finding evidence.
"Oh, right, my nephew, what's your name?"
"Li Yao."
"Oh, oh, oh, Li Yao, a good name. I thought Brother Li would name you Li Goudan."
Li Yao: .....
He had to admit, if his mother hadn't intervened, he probably would have been renamed Li Goudan.
"Your father, my good brother, once told me that if he ever had a son, he would definitely name him Li Goudan."
"By the way, nephew, do you have a girlfriend now?"
"If not, I have a daughter who is... *cough cough*, not much different in age from you. How about you become my son-in-law?"
Li Chengfeng's heart stirred slightly. He knew what kind of talent Li Zun possessed.
Li Yao, as his son, most likely inherited Li Zun's talent.
Perhaps even Yang Qian's talent was inherited!
If his descendants could inherit such talent, how powerful would they be!
The early bird catches the worm!
Although Li Chengfeng had never met Li Yao, given that Li Zun was his good brother, the success rate was quite high!
"Um... Uncle, how old is your daughter now?"
"Huh? My daughter is still in her mother's belly."
Li Yao's eyes nearly popped out of his head.
You call that 'not much different in age'??
"Uncle, are you sure that's 'not much different in age'?"
"Yes, it's about... well, okay, the difference is indeed quite large."
"But nephew, think about it, how old is your father?"
"Forty-five years old, and your mother is over three hundred years old!"
"Now look at me, over three hundred years old, and I still call your father Brother Li."
"So, is age a problem? No!"
"Relax, it's just a difference of a dozen years."
"Cough cough, Uncle, let's not talk about that for now, okay?"
Li Chengfeng could only respond helplessly, "Alright, if you're interested, nephew, you can tell me."
"If that doesn't work, I'll try harder and see if I can get you another adopted sister."
That's completely unnecessary!
Li Yao was frantically complaining in his mind. Who would offer their daughter in such a deranged manner?
In Li Yao's mind, Li Chengfeng had already been labeled with the title 'Wife-Giving Maniac'.
If he truly couldn't find a wife in the future, maybe he could just look for Li Chengfeng and get one.
"Oh, right, nephew, is there something you called me for?"
"Yes, I'd like to ask you, Uncle, to forge a weapon for me."
"A weapon? What kind of weapon? Just tell Uncle!"
"Putting everything else aside, your Uncle here is the most famous forging Grandmaster of the Tianren Clan. Besides the Old Man, my forging skills are unparalleled!"
"Forget about Legendary Level; even Radiant-level, as long as the Materials are sufficient, I can forge it for you!"
"Really?"
"Of course, it's real!"
"Although we haven't met yet, nephew, I believe we'll hit it off immediately!"
"Tell me, what treasure?"
"As soon as you tell me, I'll forge it for you immediately."
Li Yao immediately stopped being polite.
At worst, he'd help Li Chengfeng with a few favors in the future.
"I need a staff."
"If possible, it should have the function of free expansion and contraction."
Li Yao was preparing it for Yuan Hong.
The Zhenhai Rod, while powerful, was only a Legendary Level treasure.
For Yuan Hong, who was already Mythic-grade, a Legendary Level item was truly a bit unpresentable.
If he was going to use something, of course, he should use something better!
That's why Li Yao called Li Chengfeng.
Since he was a forging Grandmaster, forging a Radiant-level item shouldn't be a problem, right?
And if possible, a Mythic-grade wouldn't be too much, would it?
"Isn't it just a staff?"
"Easy to say, what grade do you want?"
"Mythic-grade?"
Li Chengfeng: ???
He felt as if there was something wrong with his ears.
A Mythic-grade treasure?
Let alone himself, even his own Old Man couldn't forge one!
At most, he could forge Radiant-level treasures.
And as the Old Man's successor, although he couldn't compare to his Old Man, he could still forge Radiant-level if he worked hard.
It's just that he was a bit embarrassed now.
He should have set a limit earlier.
"Cough cough, nephew, a Mythic-grade, let alone me, even my Old Man can't forge one."
"How about this, I'll try my best and have the Old Man forge a Radiant-level one for you?"
"Consider it a gift from me, how about that?"
"Thank you, Uncle!"
Li Yao hadn't really expected to get a Mythic-grade staff.
He had just said it casually.
Radiant-level, that was a higher existence than Legendary Level.
"If you ever need help in the future, Uncle, just ask me!"
Li Yao understood the concept of favors.
Moreover, Li Chengfeng and his father had a brotherly relationship.
At the very least, if he wanted to forge something he needed in the future, he could just find Li Chengfeng.
"Oh, nephew, you're pretty good, I like you."
"How about this, when the staff is forged, I'll contact you."
"We'll talk then!"
"Okay, thank you, Uncle. I'll hang up now."
After hanging up, Li Yao recorded the conversation.
No other meaning, he just felt that this conversation was extraordinary.
