My Endless Life

Because there are fewer and fewer warriors, few people in this world know the existence of the Martial Saint.

But the high-level officials of Yuguo and the leaders of major forces are very clear that there is still a Martial Saint in the Li family, a living Martial Saint.

Although firearms have been made, and various weapons with great lethality have been manufactured through industry, these weapons are still inferior to the puppet Yanjia made by Li Qi.

At least no one has been able to copy the Yanjia of the Li family so far.

And each of the combat Yanjia of the Li family is comparable to the former master.

The master can fly and hide, and the protective Qi bullets cannot break through. As a Martial Saint, Li Qi can destroy an entire city with a wave of his hand.

So no one dared to offend the Li family, even though Li Qi had not appeared in this world for decades.

More than ten years later, when Li Qi was 120 years old, his grandson had died, and at this moment, Yuguo began to extend its claws to other countries.

The current Yu Emperor began to send fleets abroad to find new continents.

At the same time, the surrounding countries were turned into their colonies by force. There were few countries that could compete with Yuguo.

After all, other countries did not have the firearms that were improved by Li Bofan in Yuguo.

The world accelerated its development and approached the 19th century on Earth in Li Qi's impression, but no world war had ever occurred.

Because Yuguo developed too rapidly, it was directly ahead of other countries by a whole generation, and no country could resist Yuguo's invasion.

But unfortunately, Yuguo's development eventually slowed down.

They failed to develop electricity, but instead sped along the road of steam industry.

Without electricity, radio wave communications could not be developed. The larger the territory, the slower the information was transmitted. Gradually, Yuguo could not defend its current territory.

Another fifty years passed, and the territories that Yuguo had conquered fell into chaos one after another. Warlords and rebels appeared, and Yuguo had to narrow its ruling scope.

After that, the world entered a period of peaceful development. Li Qi did not see the outbreak of the First World War, nor did he want to see it with his own eyes.

He felt a little fed up. Seeing that the 100-year appointment with Mu Xi was about to come, Li Qi found the current head of the Li family and told him that the "deadline is coming".

"Ancestor! What...what did you say?!"

The current head of the Li family, Li Huaxing, who is also Li Qi's great-great-grandson, felt that the sky was about to fall after learning that Li Qi was about to die.

Li Qi saw Li Huaxing's expression and said expressionlessly:

"This world no longer needs me. I, an old antique who has lived for several generations, should also go."

"Ancestor, if you go...if you go, what should the Li family do!"

Li Huaxing asked crying.

This middle-aged man in his forties cried like a child in front of Li Qi.

"What? Without me, the Li family will not survive? Without me, the Li family will perish? If so, the Li family might as well die like this!"

Li Qi said in a pretended anger.

But in fact, he was very calm. For several generations, he had never been so calm.

He exhaled slowly and said to the crying Li Huaxing:

"I haven't interfered with the affairs of the Li family in these years. Isn't the Li family developing well? So after I leave, you can develop the Li family as usual. You can do whatever you can, but remember, don't be greedy."

There has never been a family that lasts forever in the world, and the same is true for the Li family.

The Li family has established its current huge family business because of Li Qi and Li Bofan, but if there are no outstanding descendants in the future, it may gradually die out in the end.

But that is not something Li Qi can control.

After preparing for his own funeral, he left a doll that looked like him to replace himself, and then Li Qi quietly left the Li family and came to the current capital of Yuguo.

The location of the capital of Yuguo was the original capital of Qi.

Since the Li family moved their family business to the overseas magic island, Li Qi rarely returned to the capital.

The last time he came back was decades ago when Li Bofan was still alive.

The capital has changed a lot.

At least it is much bigger than when Li Qi fought with Emperor Qi and Liu Xuan more than a hundred years ago.

High-rise buildings can be seen everywhere. The Yuguo Council Hall near the palace is more than ten stories high, and steam elevators are used to take people to each floor.

Opposite the Yuguo Council Hall, across two streets, there is a museum.

It records the history of the "War of the Martial Saint" more than a hundred years ago. When Li Qi stepped into it, he could see his own statue standing inside.

There was also a tour guide explaining:

"What you are seeing now is the statue of the only martial saint in the world, Li Qi. Before the great changes in the world, Li Qi successfully broke through the saint, and then destroyed the royal family of Qi, which led to the current Yu Kingdom.

"After that, Li Qi's son, Mr. Li Bofan, helped Yu Kingdom open the steam age after receiving Li Sheng's teachings. With the steam industry, our Yu Kingdom can make better weapons and win every battle in the process of conquering other countries..."

The tour guide praised Li Qi and Li Qi's son Li Bofan generously.

After all, this is a museum of the battle of saints, not a museum of the royal family of Yu Kingdom.

Besides, Li Qi's status in Yu Kingdom is now higher than he imagined. After a hundred years of propaganda in Yu Kingdom, Li Qi has long become a god-like existence.

As long as it is a martial artist's home, his statue will be worshipped.

In some major events that require abide by faith, Li Qi's statue will also be invited as a witness.

Therefore, the people nearby did not have any special reaction to the tour guide's words. They were just whispering about martial arts.

"It's all talk, but in fact Li Sheng just led the warriors to help Yu State eliminate the royal family of Qi State."

There were literati who claimed to understand history, waving their fans and talking to their companions.

His companion asked:

"But what the inscription says is that Li Sheng single-handedly destroyed the Imperial Palace of Qi..."

"We are going to talk about science. Do you understand science? Do you think human power can achieve this? I have seen many of their warriors, and I have even seen an innate warrior, but at most he can only split a boulder with one palm. That’s all.”

The scholar said firmly.

Li Qi leaned over and asked curiously: "What do you think history is like?"

His appearance at this moment has changed. It is completely different from the one on the sculpture. Wearing a black windbreaker, he looks like a passerby visiting this moment.

When the scholar saw someone talking to him, he immediately said:

"It is said that Li Sheng was the leader of the world's warriors at that time, and at that time the world was going through the so-called battle between good and evil.

"There is also a Martial Saint on the Demon Sect, the one named Liu Xuan. Liu Xuan is a great person. If Li Sheng is the leader of the righteous path, then Liu Xuan is the leader of the Demon Sect!

"The battle between good and evil was in full swing, and Li Sheng didn't want to get involved, but Liu Xuan joined forces with the then Emperor Wen of Qi, Zhao Qiongxuan.

"Li Sheng had no choice but to lead the righteous people to unite with Yu Chengzu..."

"Hey, hey, you've almost got it." Before the scholar finished speaking, someone who had read history books said: "Li Sheng was less than twenty years old at that time. The history books also said that Li Sheng used Yan Jia as his weapon at that time. Dao maintains a balance with the other two parties. If Li Sheng were not about to break through Wu Sheng, the other two would not unite. "

"I said you really believe that people can fly into the sky and escape from the earth and do anything?"

The scholar expressed disdain for those who objected.

He studied physics and science from childhood to college. The more he did this, the less he believed that people could exert such a powerful force.

Li Qi listened and suddenly interrupted and asked:

"So in your opinion, Li Sheng and Liu Sheng are just the 'leaders' who each lead a large army. They don't have that kind of strength themselves, right?"

"That's right! This brother sees things thoroughly."

After hearing what Li Qi said, it was like seeing a close friend and he gave up to Li Qi.

Li Qi smiled nonchalantly and did not refute the other party. He watched him conversing with the refutationist holding the history book. He silently left the two of them and walked to the statue in the corner.

This is the statue of Emperor Qi...oh no, Emperor Wen of Qi Zhao Qiongxuan.

His achievements are written on it, such as creating the era of literati, establishing a stable era for the people of the world, etc.

But there were very few people standing in front of the statue of Emperor Qi.

"A hundred years have passed, how many people still remember your original achievements?"

Li Qi looked at the statue of Emperor Qi and wanted to laugh.

An old voice came from the side: "If it weren't for you, guarding the border for decades, preventing the barbarians from entering the Central Plains, if you hadn't let your son pass the steam technology to Yuguo, I'm afraid... Yuguo would have been invaded by the barbarians, and all life would be ruined. Come on."

Li Qi turned around when he heard the sound.

He saw Yin Xia, who had white hair and was leaning on a cane, standing next to him.

She is already old, too old to look good, her body is stooped, her face is full of wrinkles, and she can only vaguely see some of her youthful beauty.

Li Qi has not seen her for decades.

Ever since the first wrinkle appeared on her face, Yin Xia disappeared from Li Qi's side.

Li Qi asked Tianhai to follow her and take care of her, but Tianhai returned to Li Qi more than ten years later and told Li Qi that Yin Xia would not let him continue to follow her.

Since then, Li Qi has never heard from Yin Xia again.

I didn't expect to see her here.

Seeing these few ‘old friends’, Li Qi smiled on his face:

"Why are you here?"

"I opened this museum, what do you think?"

Yin Xia also smiled, then looked at the sculpture of Emperor Qi and whispered:

"As people get older, they tend to be sentimental, so I thought about leaving something behind before I die, so I built this museum."

"It's good. At least people who come later will know what we did back then."

"Haha, they don't believe in this thing. There is no grandmaster, and now even the sixth-grade Xiantian can become a peerless master. Do you think they will believe that there was once someone who flew into the sky and escaped from the earth, and destroyed the palace with one hand? There was once someone who used dragon veins as a guide. Cutting off the path of warriors from all over the world?

"They will just treat these as myths and legends."

Yin Xia said with a smile, and then looked at Li Qi: "When you, the only living 'myth', pass away, no one will believe this anymore."

Li Qi heard this and responded calmly: "That's good too."

If Yuguo can continue to develop technology, then maybe the world will become more suitable for ordinary people to live in.

For ordinary people, this is perfect.

"I don't have much time left."

Yin Xia suddenly said: "The bloodline of the nine-tailed fox has given me a long lifespan, but unfortunately, this lifespan cannot be compared to the time when I am still on the path of martial arts. I have counted the days, and I will probably leave in a few days. What about you? "When are you leaving?"

"It's coming soon, so I plan to walk around at the end of my life."

Li Qi said softly and looked at the sculpture of Emperor Qi again.

Yin Xia turned to look at Li Qi's side face, and suddenly sighed and said:

"I regretted not marrying you back then."

"how?"

"Even now, I can still tell everyone I have a young husband-in-law that I envy those old ladies."

Yin Xia said half-jokingly.

"The 'old woman' you call is a descendant who is separated from you by who knows how many generations..."

Li Qi was quite speechless when he heard this.

However, Yin Xia said nonchalantly: "When people grow old, they will all be the same. How can it be like you? You are so old and still pretend to be young every day to show off your youth. You are shameless."

She said as she walked back: "Okay, I'm going back. Do you want to go back with me for dinner?"

Li Qi took one last look at the statue of Emperor Qi, turned around and left with Yin Xia without saying anything else.

After staying with Yin Xia for two days, Li Qi didn't stay long.

He didn't want to witness the death of his relatives, and Yin Xia didn't want Li Qi to see the terrible state of his death.

So the two of them said goodbye as usual.

Although both of them knew that this farewell would be forever for them, no one said anything provocative.

Just like an ordinary day.

Li Qi left the capital and headed to the snow-capped mountains, where he found the cave where Li Xueren discovered the God's No-Phase Skill. Then he sat down cross-legged and sighed.

"Fu Er..."

"Master."

Just as Li Qi made the call, the young Hu Buer appeared in front of Li Qi.

He was wearing a straight Yuguo formal suit, somewhat similar to a suit, with a cane in his hand and a bowler hat on his head.

Hu Buer, who looked like a young man, stood in front of Li Qi like this.

Looking at the young him, Li Qi's eyes were a little complicated:

"You still chose this path."

"Yes, because I want to live."

Hu Buer replied.

Li Qi sighed: "Living too long is not a good thing."

"..."

Hu Buer just remained silent when he heard this.

Li Qi looked up at him: "What are you going to do after I leave?"

Hu Buer lowered his head and put on his hat: "I plan to pass down Master's puppets. I think... I want to create real life."

Hu Buer is the only inheritor of Li Qi's Tiangong soul-moving technique. Even Tianhai still practices the nine-life soul-stealing technique, and relies on this to stay attached to the doll.

Because of this, Hu Buer was able to do what Li Qi had envisioned, which was to transfer his soul into a doll.

Now Hu Buer's body is a doll. Like the Eve that Li Qi once gave to Li Qiao, it possesses most of the functions that humans have.

Of course Li Qi can continue to live in this world in this way, but for Li Qi, the potential of this world has come to an end. He cannot gain more knowledge, so he can only choose to go to the next world.

After hearing Hu Buer's 'dream', Li Qi said no more.

He closed his eyes and said to Hu Buyer:

"The longer you live, the weaker your feelings as a human will be. If you still want to maintain your humanity, you'd better find an anchor for yourself, otherwise... you will no longer be a human. This is what I, as the master, leave to you. final advice."

"...Fu Er will keep it in mind."

Hu Buer bowed respectfully to Li Qi.

Li Qi nodded: "After I leave, I will help take care of the Li family. But if the descendants of the Li family commit suicide, you don't have to worry about them... You can use my body if you want. Anyway, I will He’s dead and doesn’t care about this anymore.”

Li Qi said this to Hu Buer, and then closed his eyes.

He stopped talking and his breathing gradually stopped. Hu Buer stood in front of him and waited for a long time. Finally, he took off his hat and bowed deeply to Li Qi:

"...Have a good journey, Master."

After saying that, Hu Buer turned around and left, with no intention of using Li Qi's body.

No matter what, Li Qi is his master, and Hu Buer is a man who respects his master. He will not defile Li Qi's body, even if he has received the master's permission.

…

After Li Qi passed away, the world did not change much. No one knew that a martial saint died quietly in a snow mountain cave.

Except Hu Buer.

After that, Hu Fuji vigorously developed dolls. He created a doll factory and tried to create living dolls.

Because of Hu Buer's presence, Yuguo's national fortunes, which had been declining, actually improved again.

An unknown amount of time passed like this, and the doll created by Hu Buer finally possessed a trace of the so-called spirituality of life as he thought.

However, he didn't know that that was the beginning of the 'Doll Rebellion' incident.

Of course, everything after this has nothing to do with Li Qi.

Because his soul has already gone to the next world.

began his new journey.
