"I wonder if Immortal has heard of a saying that if a tiger has three sons, it will definitely have a tiger cat?" The waiter replied carefully. Ye Qiu frowned when he heard this. He was clearly stunned.
Of course, he knew this allusion. He couldn't help but start to wonder about this white tiger called Li Qi. "Tell me, could there be a story behind this?"
The waiter did not hide anything because everyone in the entire Ancient Battlefield knew about the White Tiger Li Qi. Basically, everyone knew a little.
"This White Tiger Li Qi has the direct bloodline of the White Tiger Clan and is the youngest. However, when he was born, he was the thinnest and weakest. He was not liked by the elders of the clan.
"You have to know that the White Tiger Clan advocates strength above all else. A fellow like Li Qi, who couldn't even walk steadily when he was young, is equivalent to the humiliation of the White Tiger Clan. In the eyes of Patriarch Li Tian, it's a thorn. Therefore, when he's two years old, he was chased out of the family clan to fend for himself, not being acknowledged by the White Tiger Clan."
At this point, the waiter couldn't help but sigh. In such a large family, it could be said that there was no emotion at all. As long as it affected the reputation and interests of the family clan, even if you were a direct descendant, you would still be given up.
Li Qi's childhood experience could be said to be extremely miserable. He had suffered all the cold eyes and mockery from his family clan.
He had two brothers and they were the Patriarch's favorites. They were nurtured as the successors and gave everything he had. Basically, the Patriarch would satisfy them whatever they wanted.
As for Li Qi, he couldn't even eat his fill. Such an experience also created the taciturn him. When he walked in just now, Ye Qiu could feel the pure coldness in his eyes, as if he didn't care about anything in the world.
The waiter's interest was piqued as he spoke. He continued, "After being expelled from the family clan, Li Qi did not die prematurely as everyone expected. Instead, he survived this difficult world.
"But he was only barely able to survive, he couldn't do anything. All of this didn't change until he reached adulthood. It turns out that he has been weak and sickly since he was young. The reason why he's thin is not because of his poor talent, but because he's the legendary tiger cat.
"As the ancient saying goes, if a tiger has three sons, it will definitely have a tiger cat! He abhors evil and is extremely strong. Because of his tragic experience when he was young, he is violent by nature and views his family as a blood feud. He is also an fiend celestial among tiger cats.
"After awakening his bloodline, Li Qi quickly rose. In just a few decades, he became an outstanding figure. He views the White Tiger Clan as his lifelong enemy. Every time he encounters the bloodline of his clan on this battlefield, he will definitely eat it with his bloody mouth. It can be said to be extremely cruel.
"For this, he also offended the White Tiger Clan and was hunted down by the White Tiger Clan. However, most of the clansmen who came to kill him were eaten by him.
"As he became stronger every day, the White Tiger Li Tian finally became afraid and did not dare to find trouble with him again. He even asked the juniors of the clan to avoid him as much as possible."
After hearing this story, Ye Qiu was especially shocked. He didn't expect Li Qi to treat the White Tiger Clan as his mortal enemy. It was no wonder. Not only was he not angry at all when faced with the extermination of the White Tiger Clan, but he also looked very happy. His mood became much better.
However, the waiter's words were not wrong. Li Qi's talent was indeed terrifying. With his age, he had actually cultivated his cultivation to the Dao Sacrificial realm under such cruel conditions.
Who in the world could do it?
This was not just the difficulty of the cultivation environment and the lack of resources. There were also threats from the outside world and the pursuit of the White Tiger Clan. It was no wonder that he was so cold. It was impossible for a lonely ferocious beast like him to have friends.
Ye Qiu thought to himself and became interested.
Although he had a grudge with the White Tiger Clan and had even personally destroyed them, for some reason, he did not have any killing intent towards Li Qi. Perhaps it was to express pity for his experience, or perhaps it was because they had some empathy.
"Because without the support of the family clan's huge resources, Li Qi can only rely on the immortal treasures he exchanged with his life in the ancient battlefield to come to this underground city to trade for what he needs. Therefore, I'm quite familiar with this lord. He comes almost every month."
After hearing the waiter's story, Ye Qiu nodded. He acknowledged this unfamiliar expert. However, compared to this, Ye Qiu still had a question in his heart. Then, he said, "Compared to this, I'm actually more curious. Who is the owner of your inn? To be able to build an orderly underground city outside this chaotic ancient battlefield, the person behind this must not be simple."
Ye Qiu smiled and asked. This doubt had existed since he walked into the inn. Even now, he couldn't figure it out. Who was the person behind this underground city? What kind of heaven-defying background and strength did he have?
One had to know that the guests here were mostly outlaws. There was no lack of ferocious bloodthirsty people or abandoned children of the various large families who were hunted down. However, to be able to take root under this chaotic order and establish a complete order to restrain these people, it was impossible if the person behind this did not have any ability.
The waiter's face darkened and a trace of fear flashed across his eyes. It could be seen that Ye Qiu's question had already touched a taboo. "Immortal, don't make things difficult for me. I have a cheap life. There are some things I can't bear."
This time, he didn't answer directly. Ye Qiu nodded and didn't force him. It was obvious that the waiter was not lying. Moreover, he was indeed an ordinary person, a pawn that could be abandoned at any time. After thinking for a moment, Ye Qiu tentatively pointed at the sky. The waiter saw what he wanted to express and silently nodded.
"Alright! Looks like you really don't know. Forget it, bring me to the underground city. I want to see what new things are inside." Ye Qiu stood up and didn't ask about this inn anymore. He already knew what was going on. Apart from coming from the outer realm, Ye Qiu couldn't think of anyone else who had the ability to build a complete underground city in this chaotic order. He just did not know who this outsider was.
Ye Qiu was even more curious and expectant about this outer realm. He could not wait to step foot on that land and see the so-called friend celestials and gods. Unfortunately, he did not have the ability yet. Moreover, the outer realm was filled with danger, and there were many powerful enemies who treated him as a threat.
For example, the Corpse Ancestor who suffered a huge loss on the divine mountain last time and the strange Tian who had great karma with Ye Qiu. He had not heard from him for many years. After he came out of seclusion, he settled down for many years. No one knew what big move he was holding back.
Presumably, Ye Qiu would only truly meet him after he truly entered the outer realm.
