"Sect Master Li, you must save me!"

Xu Xiao completely gave up his dignity as the head of the dynasty, knelt on the ground and hugged Li Yunshan's thigh tightly, begging bitterly.

Li Yunshan kicked him away: "Save you?"

"I can't even protect myself now!"

Li Yunshan felt that he was really unlucky this time, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that things were not that simple.

How could he, a mere Martial Lord and an ant-like existence in the eyes of the Emperor, attract the attention of Patriarch Zixiao?

After much thought, Li Yunshan discovered the key point of the problem.

"It's Xu Yan'er!"

Thinking of this, Li Yunshan's back gradually became cold.

"It turns out that Ancestor Zixiao has known about it for a long time..."

Xu Xiao looked at Li Yunshan who was suddenly enlightened and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Yan'er?"

Li Yunshan lowered his head and stared at Xu Xiao: "Xu Yan'er is probably a key piece in the chess game of some big forces."

"Chess game?"

Xu Xiao was a little confused.

"Is it because of Yan'er's talent?"

Li Yunshan rolled his eyes at him.

"Xu Yan'er's talent is indeed considered the pride of the Qi Dynasty of yours. Even I, the Qingshan Sect, can be called the leader among the many direct disciples."

"However, among some second-class forces, her talent can only be considered average."

"Actually, among the saints and saints of the ten holy places, which one has not attained enlightenment as a Martial Lord within a hundred years of age?"

"Therefore, Xu Yan'er, a 150-year-old Martial King, is not worthy of the Zixiao Patriarch's eyes!"

"But Patriarch Zixiao took Yan'er away. Why?"

After listening to Li Yunshan's words, Xu Xiao was even more puzzled.

How could Zixiao's great ancestor go to such great lengths to bring his own Yan'er to Zixiao Holy Land?

"Sect Master Li, this..."

Lin Yunshan sighed deeply at this time, and then helped Xu Xiao sit back on the chair.

"Master Xu, do you know why I suddenly want to accept Yan'er as my direct disciple?"

Xu Xiao asked: "Isn't it because of Yan'er's talent?"

Li Yunshan shook his head: "As of now, I won't hide it from you anymore."

"Accepting Xu Yan'er into the Qingshan Sect is actually entirely due to the arrangements of the seven aristocratic families."

"Oh, no, to be precise, they should be called the six aristocratic families now."

"Six major aristocratic families?" Xu Xiao asked in surprise, "How could Yan'er be related to such a behemoth as the six major aristocratic families?"

Li Yunshan patted Xu Xiao's shoulder lightly: "Master Xu, that's why I said that Xu Yan'er was taken away by Ancestor Zixiao, which is related to the game between these big forces."

"Now not only Yan'er, but also you and me are deeply involved in this chess game..."

Li Yunshan said meaningfully.

"Three months ago, the Xiao family, one of the six great families, sent an envoy from the saint realm to Qingshan Sect and asked me to temporarily accept Xu Yan'er as my disciple for one year."

"When he left, he left a Xiao family token and repeatedly warned that the matter must not be leaked."

"I didn't understand at the time that no matter how good Xu Yan'er's talent was, it wouldn't be enough to attract a saint from the Tianyu family to come here."

"But now I understand."

Li Yunshan took out the token engraved with the word "Xiao" and placed it beside the case.

"This is the token of the Xiao family." Li Yunshan stroked his beard and said, "Originally, according to the agreement, I need to use it to contact the Xiao family after a full year."

"But now Patriarch Zixiao appears and takes Xu Yan'er away by force. The matter has been leaked, and I must report the situation immediately."

"Otherwise, once the Tianyu family becomes angry, Lord Xu, both my Qingshan Sect and your Daqi Dynasty will be reduced to ashes in an instant..."

After that, Li Yunshan injected spiritual energy into the Xiao family token.

Xu Xiao, who was standing by, was extremely nervous at this time, and cold sweat dripped onto the ground like raindrops.

The two saw that with the continuous injection of spiritual energy, the word "Xiao" on the token gradually faded and then disappeared completely.

Then, the token began to burn, and a shadow appeared in the meeting hall.

Although the shadow looked very blurry, Li Yunshan recognized the identity of the shadow at first sight.

He quickly pulled Xu Xiao up and knelt respectfully in front of this person.

"Junior Li Yunshan, pays homage to the Lingxu Saint!"

Lingxu Saint was the envoy sent by the Xiao family to Qingshan Sect before.

"Hmm?"

The Lingxu Saint in the shadow looked at Li Yunshan and Xu Xiao kneeling on the ground, counted with his fingers, and found that a year was far from coming.

"Li Yunshan, why did you use the token privately before the agreed deadline?"

"Senior, please forgive me, I have something very important to report, it's about Xu Yan'er!"

"Speak!"

Sage Lingxu was furious.

Because as the envoy of the Xiao family, if he did not take Xu Yan'er back as originally planned, he would be punished.

"It all started with Xu Yan'er..."

Li Yunshan told the story of how the Purple Sky Ancestor suddenly appeared in the territory of the Great Qi Dynasty and took Xu Yan'er away word for word.

Xu Xiao, who was kneeling with him, trembled and did not dare to look at Saint Lingxu in the face.

"Li Yunshan, are you sure it was the Purple Sky Ancestor???"

"Absolutely true!" Li Yunshan answered confidently, "The Purple Sky Ancestor also asked me to go to Xuanyi Peak within a month!"

"Xuanyi Peak..."

In the shadow, Saint Lingxu's face became extremely ugly and he fell into deep thought.

He was thinking, when did the Purple Sky Ancestor know about the elders' plan?

In order to prevent Xu Yan'er's incident from being leaked, the elders of the Xiao family paid a huge price and erased the cause and effect, just to prevent it from being calculated by a great man like Zixiao Patriarch.

However, it seemed to be useless. Zixiao Patriarch still calculated it and intercepted Xu Yan'er in advance.

Could it be that Zixiao Patriarch can ignore cause and effect and spy on the secrets of heaven at will?

If so, Zixiao Patriarch is really so terrifying!

Lingxu Saint decided to go back quickly and report the matter to the family elders first, let them decide.

"Li Yunshan, this matter is of great importance. What to do next, you wait for my news."

After Lingxu Saint said this, the Xiao family token burned out.

The phantom disappeared suddenly.

The meeting hall returned to the scene where only Li Yunshan and Xu Xiao were there.

"Li, Li Zongzhu, what should we do next?"

After Lingxu Saint disappeared, Xu Xiao was still in fear.

Li Yunshan didn't think much and said four words with absolute certainty: "Go to Xuanyi Peak!"

"Go to Xuanyi Peak?" Xu Xiao said in surprise, "Didn't the saint just say that we should wait for news first?"

"Idiot!"

Li Yunshan cursed.

"We can't afford to offend the Xiao family, so how dare we offend the Zixiao Holy Land?"

"From Qingshan Sect to Zixiao Holy Land, with my martial lord cultivation, it will take no more than three days to arrive, but the old ancestor Zixiao gave me a month."

"Why?"

"The old ancestor Zixiao used me as a pawn to observe the reactions of the six major families!"
