Sword Energy Reaches the Heavens
Chapter 89 The Mastermind
It didn't take long for Liu Ji to defeat the opponent. Her cultivation level was already in the middle stage of the Fourth Realm. Generally speaking, she could deal with even monks in the late Tiangang Realm.
After she took the person down, she carried the person to Li Fan and threw him on the ground.
The monk in the Tiangang realm was a middle-aged man. At this time, his breath was weak and his body was seriously injured. He raised his head and looked at Li Fan.
He looked extremely embarrassed.
The news he got was just to ambush a cultivator of the Three Realms. Why was this like this?
"Who sent you here?" Li Fan looked at the other party and asked.
"I am the protector of the Wanxiang Sect." The man raised his head and stared at Li Fan, full of momentum, seemingly unaware of his situation.
"Wanxiang Sect?" Li Fan thought of Xiao Mo, the young master of Wanxiang Sect?
It seems that Yin Qing really betrayed him and sold the information out. Did Yin Qing go to Wanxiang Sect to inform?
Han Zong and Situ Chan walked over and thought of Yin Qing immediately when they heard the man's words. Both of them looked ugly and felt a little guilty because of this incident, which actually put brother Xiaofan in danger.
"Who told you the news?" Li Fan looked at the other party and continued to ask. He was wondering whether there might be other possibilities behind this matter, and it was not Yin Qing who went to Wanxiang Sect to inform.
"You need to ask our sect master about this matter. Your Excellency is very powerful and must be a person of some status. Why don't you let me go back to spread the word and sit down with our sect master to talk about how to solve this matter?" said the Wanxiang Sect protector.
"Let's talk?" Li Fan looked strange.
This Tiangang realm cultivator seems to have not corrected his position at all?
"Our Wanxiang Sect can be considered a large sect. The sect leader is at the pinnacle of foundation building. Moreover, we have extensive contacts and are familiar with the top families in Chuzhou. Even if you have something to rely on, if we really want to defeat the enemy, the final outcome is still unknown." The voice of the other party There is a hint of threat.
"Destroy his cultivation." Li Fan said to Liu Jidao that the man's expression changed with shock when he heard Li Fan's words, and then his eyes turned into anger and shouted: "You————·
As soon as he finished speaking, screams came out. Liu Ji's palm fell on him, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard. His body lay softly on the ground, his breath rapidly weakened, and he became a cripple.
"Go back and tell the leader of the Wanxiang Sect to come see me." Li Fan said to him. The Wanxiang Sect seems to have been betrayed, and they don't know who the person who ambushed is.
The man raised his head and stared at Li Fan, with viciousness in his eyes.
Is this guy crazy?
"Just say that Li Fan wants to see him from Lishan." Li Fan whispered, then turned and left.
When he heard the word "Li Shan", the man's face turned pale, as if he had thought of something, and he felt strong anger, but it was not anger towards Li Fan, but towards the person who gave the news to Wanxiang Sect.
Is it a coincidence, or were they set up?
Although the Wanxiang Sect is not the top power in Chuzhou City, it is still a first-rate power.
At this time, in the main hall of Wanxiang Sect, a man was sitting on top, and there were many people below.
The man at the top was wearing a purple robe with cloud patterns embroidered on his body. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip, with fierce murderous intent in his eyes.
This person is Xiao Yuntian, the leader of Wanxiang Sect. Not long ago, his son Xiao Mo was killed in the wild. Someone told him who the murderer was and where he lived. He had ordered people to go there and kill him. Kill, cut off the other person's head to see him.
Xiao Mo was his favorite heir and would inherit his mantle in the future. However, he was killed.
This revenge must be avenged.
"Sect Master." At this time, someone strode outside with a panicked expression. "Huh?" Xiao Yuntian frowned and asked, "What's wrong, elder?"
"Just now Protector Zhang has returned, his cultivation was abolished, and the other two were killed on the spot." The visitor said, and Xiao Yuntian's eyes suddenly shot out a sharp light, and he stood up.
He got the news that the person who killed his son Xiao Mo was a practitioner of the Three Realms.
A Tiangang Realm martial arts practitioner and two Third Realm monks should be easy to catch.
Is there a monk from the Four Realms on the other side?
Could it be that the information he got was inaccurate?
"Why?" Xiao Yuntian asked coldly.
"Going back to the sect master, Protector Zhang said————-that man asked him to come back and tell the sect master, Li Fan from Lishan, to ask you to see him!
"The visitor said.
"Crack-" The wine glass in Xiao Yuntian's hand was directly crushed into pieces, his eyes turned livid instantly, and the hand holding the broken wine glass shook slightly.
His heart was also sinking. Different from the anger just now, it was replaced by fear, and a cold feeling spread throughout his body.
He was set up.
Someone took advantage of him and used him as a pawn.
"Sect Master, how should we deal with it?" the elder said, and everyone in the hall also started talking about it.
They all looked panicked.
Lishan——
These two words were like a big mountain pressing on them.
The disciples from Lishan must have known something after killing the young sect leader. Now, their Wanxiang Sect sent people to kill the people from Lishan.
This is already a dead end.
"You guys step back first." Xiao Yuntian said, he needed to calm down.
"Yes, Sect Master." Everyone left one after another. They were still talking when they left, and they were already thinking about how to protect themselves wisely.
They don't deserve to be buried with the Wanxiang Sect.
Xiao Yuntian sat down on the chair and closed his eyes.
The other members of the Wanxiang Sect may be able to escape, but the man from Lishan will definitely not let him go.
Unless, he would give up the foundation of Wanxiang Sect and fly away now.
But will the Chen family let him go?
At this time, there were footsteps.
Xiao Yuntian opened his eyes and saw a young figure walking into the main hall from the side door.
Seeing the young man's appearance, Xiao Yuntian knew that just as he had guessed, the other party would not let him go so easily.
Otherwise, Wanxiang Sect would not be dragged into the water.
"Mr. Chen is very clever." Xiao Yuntian was no longer as polite as before, but said coldly.
The person who arrived was surprisingly an acquaintance of Li Fan, Chen Yan of the Chen family whom he had met several times in Lin'an County.
Chen Yan is a direct descendant of the Chen family in Chuzhou. They are inextricably connected with the Chuzhou court, and they were deeply involved in the Lishan incident.
At that time, the Chen family believed that Lishan must fall, and they, the Chen family, contributed their efforts. As long as Lishan fell, the Chen family would naturally get a share of the pie, and by then, they would have the opportunity to become the strongest family in Chuzhou.
However, contrary to expectations, Lishan did not fall. After learning the news that Li Fan had entered Chuzhou City, the Chen family was undoubtedly the most worried.
Especially Chen Yan, he was probably the first person Li Fan wanted to kill.
But now they don't know if there are other great sword cultivators in Li Shan besides Li Fan.
"Uncle Xiao, this Lishan disciple killed Brother Mo. Shouldn't he avenge him?" Chen Yan said: "Brother Mo is the heir you trained. The revenge of killing your son is irreconcilable."
Xiao Yuntian stared at Chen Yan, so without telling them the real information, he allowed him to be the one who stood out?
Now, it is no longer the life and death of one of his sons, but the life and death of the entire Wanxiang Sect.
"What do the Chen family want?" Xiao Yuntian asked.
The Chen family themselves were hiding behind their backs and did not dare to take action, so they found him to be the scapegoat?
"It's not what our Chen family wants. Li Fan killed Brother Mo and found out about Wanxiang Sect's collusion with demons.
Li Shan will never let go of Wanxiang Sect, let alone Uncle Xiao. "Chen Yan said.
"So?" Xiao Yuntian asked.
"Kill Li Fan and avenge the murder of his son. After that, Uncle Xiao can take the resources of Wanxiang Sect and fly away. I, the Chen family, will make arrangements for Uncle Xiao's family and find another place for Uncle Xiao to live anonymously." Chen Yan He said coldly, with stern eyes.
After learning about Li Fan's arrival in Chuzhou City, the Chen family was most afraid.
Since Li Shan's incident, they have been terrified and worried about Li Shan's revenge.
When Li Fan appeared, one can imagine their mood.
However, the Chen family has a great business, and they are unwilling to abandon it because they are afraid of Li Shan's revenge, and want to take a gamble.
Of course, the Chen family has also been paving the way for some of the direct descendants of the Chen family to leave the family, so that even if the Chen family is destroyed, the fire of the Chen family will still be there.
Xiao Yuntian had a gloomy face when he heard Chen Yan's words, he was so cruel to the Chen family.
This blocked his escape route. If he obeyed, he would still have a chance to fly away.
If he is disobedient, he may not even get this chance, and his family members will also be controlled.
The Chen family didn't take action themselves, so they asked the Wanxiang Sect to take action.
Although Chen Yan didn't know what happened on the mountain that day, he knew that Li Fan was Junior Brother Wen Ruyu.
The killing of Li Fan cannot be done by the Chen family.
Moreover, we should also take this opportunity to see whether Li Fan came alone or if there was a Lishan sword cultivator behind him.
Naturally, the Chen family would not test it themselves, so they had to leave it to the Wanxiang Sect.
"Do I have a choice?" Xiao Yuntian looked at Chen Yan indifferently.
"I will ask people to cooperate with Uncle Xiao's actions." Chen Yan said: "But Uncle Xiao needs to remember that this matter has nothing to do with the Chen family."
With that said, Chen Yan turned and left.
After he left, Xiao Yuntian slapped his palm on the table next to him, shattering it.
There was a dead end before him.
If you do, there is still a chance of survival.
If you don’t do it, you will die.
In the inn, someone from the Cui family came to the inn and found Li Fan.
"Master Li, I am Cui Zhanfeng of the Cui family. The head of the family has learned about what is going on here and asked us to come." The leader of the Cui family who arrived was an old man. After seeing Li Fan, he raised his hands and said.
The Cui family has great influence in Chuzhou City. Now Cui Lengzhou is in charge of the Cui family. After Li Fan left, he immediately called attention to the news about Li Fan. When he learned that Li Fan had been assassinated, he immediately sent people to protect him.
Cui Zhanfeng is an elder of Cui Lengzhou. He is at the peak of foundation building. Even if the master of Wanxiang Sect arrives, he can handle it well enough.
"Thank you, senior. However, I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for the Cui family to get involved in this matter," Li Fan said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li. The head of the family has given instructions. He knows that the relationship between Lishan and the imperial court is sensitive, but he knows how to repay his kindness. Mr. Li's matter is the matter of the Cui family. What's more, my Cui family is not involved in the disputes between Lishan and the imperial court. ,
It's just to protect Mr. Li's safety. Cui Zhanfeng said,
"Okay." Li Fan nodded. He also knew a little about Cui Lengzhou's character. Since he did this, there was no need to persuade him.
"In addition, the lady in red also misses Mr. Li." Cui Zhanfeng added: "For safety reasons, it is better for Mr. Li to move into the Cui family. In this way, what happened today will not happen again."
"Thank you for your kindness, senior." Li Fan shook his head. He knew that this was definitely not Li Hongyi's intention. It was probably Cui Lengzhou's own initiative to facilitate the affair between him and Miss Li.
"However, I have two friends and I hope senior can help arrange it."
Now that all the forces in Chuzhou City have known about his arrival, I am afraid that many people want him dead. Han Zong and Situ Chan are close to him, so they should arrange an escape route for them to avoid trouble.
