Chapter 612 - 529: Return_2
[Despite being followed by several menacing undercurrents, they were all readily resolved through careful guidance from Li Shenghong’s tutelage to the four of them.]
[In the 152nd year after the Immortal Fall, Li Shengshi exterminated the demonic beings of Copper Mountain, stopped the evil arts of the demon people, gaining past kindred’s legacy, achieving great creation, and at the age of forty, he ascended to become the Perfected.]
[Suddenly, his fame rose again, even stirring up Kyoto.]
[Amid the flurry of public discussions, just like Li Shenghong had done before, Li Shengshi, despite the discouragement of the clan elders of the Zongren Mansion, turned his back on the Divine Capital and defended the border town.]
[Following this move, various rumors flew around, saying he was tired of the political intrigues in the Divine Capital, or, saying he still held a grudge against the royal family for sitting by as Li Shenghong died, or that he had inherited the legacy of the Sword Immortal.]

[Under the protection of Gui Ling’er, they exorcised demons, slaughtered the Demon Dao, defended the border and prevented the various evil beings in the towns from breaking out. His reputation gradually rose with great merits. It was said: The second Sword Immortal was born.]
[In the 267th year after the Immortal Fall, after more than a hundred years of preparation, Li Shengshi became an Infant God well before his bicentennial. The name of Daqian’s Flood Dragon Li Shengshi was circulated throughout the Spirit Suppressing Realm, and it was rumored that he might become an Immortal.]
[With great fame came convenience, as well as various assassination attempts.]
