Chapter 341: Chapter 135: Walking the Hero’s Path with the Overlord Blade, The Great Battle Begins (Super Chapter)

Li Yuan reached out as usual and patted her shoulder, brushed the snowflakes off her collar, and said, "Then prepare yourself... in half a year, I will arrange for you to leave first.

The first stop after leaving is the He Family.

But after you have avenged yourself and taken the Tang Sect’s inheritance, head to Cloud Mountain Path."

"What?" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Tang Nian was full of surprise, somewhat at a loss because these words were too unexpected.

Li Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Walk with me, we’ll talk as we walk."

"Sure, Dad..." Tang Nian responded.

The two walked back and forth around the courtyard, where the flowers in the flowerbed had long wilted, their branches covered in glistening frost and snow.

Li Yuan told this adopted daughter everything about the situation and circumstances, except for the "human skin handcuffs."

Tang Nian became even more silent.

Li Yuan said, "Niannian, so, this time on the Cloud Mountain Path, I want you to control the situation, to open up a retreat for our Li Family. Do you understand?"

Tang Nian nodded.

Li Yuan said, "This time, it will involve mobilizing a lot of forces from the social world, and many of the leaders among these forces are already under my command. And I want you... to be their leader.

Rest assured, these people are loyal to me and will never betray... however, many of them are villains and evildoers."

His attitude towards the subordinates captured with "human skin handcuffs" was contradictory. He believed in their loyalty yet distrusted their ways, as they all had a tendency to align with ghostly things. So, he wanted to send a normal person from his side to control the overall situation and give Tang Nian a relatively quiet place to conduct her puppetry research.

Tang Nian replied, "Dad, ever since my Tang Family was destroyed, I haven’t wanted to be a good person."

"No."

Li Yuan suddenly turned around, somewhat helplessly massaging his forehead.

In his mind, scenes from Tang Nian’s past flashed by one after another.

...

In Xiao Mo Mountain, a tearful little girl walked out from behind a tree, saying she wanted to personally dig out her father’s heart.

...

Outside Shanbao County, the girl manipulated puppets to ruthlessly and coldly dismember the mountain bandits. Those bandits were bad people, but compared to their evil, the way the girl used puppets to dismember them... showed a more hysterical cruelty.

...

In the Martial House, a girl in red clothes sat with a carefree demeanor, legs crossed, in the palm of a giant puppet, a smile on her lips, living in a drunken dream.

...

On the way back from the wilderness south of Shanbao County, the girl casually said, "I’m not an assassin, not good at sneaking into camps, and even less at poisoning secretly. I am a puppet master, my way of fighting has never been to be on the front lines."

...

And in front of him, the girl in white had short hair because he watched over her closely, and even her wine gourd was gone from her waist.

For a moment, Li Yuan was somewhat distracted.

He didn’t know what would become of such an adopted daughter if placed outside to lead a group of villains.

"Kill those who deserve to be killed. Try to help ordinary people who don’t deserve to be killed... Doing good leads to brightness." Li Yuan earnestly said.

"Brightness, what is it for?" Tang Nian’s lips curled, with a hint of madness about to be unleashed.

Li Yuan slapped her on the head.

Tang Nian cried out in pain, holding her head, "Dad, it hurts~~ it hurts~~"

Li Yuan said irritably, "You’re really good at acting."

Tang Nian pouted, "But it really hurts, Dad, why don’t you rub it for me?"

Li Yuan raised his hand and rubbed her hair.

This left Tang Nian momentarily at a loss.

She cautiously glanced at her dad, showing a trace of warmth on her face, then said, "Got it, got it, I’ll manage well on Cloud Mountain Path, and I’ll keep my hair short, wear white clothes, not turn bad, is that okay?"

Li Yuan thought for a moment and added, "If you meet a boy you like and want to fall in love, just tell your adoptive father, and I’ll find someone to replace you, then you can leave.

But that doesn’t mean our father-daughter bond is severed once you leave. Your adoptive father will always welcome you back."

Tang Nian was already twenty this year, which, in some counties, would make her a woman with a child at twenty. It was a marriageable age for her.

So, Li Yuan explained what might happen in advance, to prevent his adopted daughter from getting stuck in a dead-end and not only ruining what she had built on Cloud Mountain Path but also enacting a tragic love story.

After all... before he transmigrated, he had watched some TV shows where the main character meets a villainess, and then the villainess falls head over heels in love, not only secretly helping the main character with her forces but also, under the influence of the main character, realizes her father is actually a bad guy, and then stands on the moral high ground to kill her dad along with the main character.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan carefully added, "If you need money or resources for romance, just tell your adoptive father directly, don’t overthink it or do anything fake.

By the way, if you have any wounds in your heart, don’t be easily warmed by some man’s smile."

Tang Nian rolled her eyes in exasperation, holding her head, and exclaimed, "Warmed by a man’s smile? Dad, do you take me for a fool?"

Li Yuan said, "I’m being very serious with you..."

Tang Nian sighed, "Got it, Dad..."

"Wait!"

Tang Nian suddenly realized something, leaned over, and said, "Dad, you’re not indirectly forcing me to marry, are you?"

Li Yuan shook his head.

Tang Nian said with relief, "That’s good," then patted Li Yuan’s shoulder, "Don’t worry, Dad, I prefer puppets to men... Men will only slow down my research on Puppetry, what do I need them for?
