The Way of the Immortal Master

Meng Zhang noticed the change in Li Xuan's face and cast a questioning look.

Li Xuan restrained his temper and said through gritted teeth, "That old thief is Li Nu, and the people behind him are all his henchmen."

About Li Nu, Meng Zhang once heard Li Xuan mention it.

If you want to evaluate this person in one sentence, it is a villain, a truly shameless villain.

Li Nu and a group of monks under him were originally a group of bandits who fled here from other places, but they appeared as ordinary casual cultivators.

More than ten years ago, they spent a lot of spiritual stones to buy a first-order spiritual vein from Shuangfenggu, and became a vassal force of Shuangfenggu, and they settled down.

The spiritual vein where Li Nu and the others settled down happened to be near the Li family's ancestral land.

Shuangfenggu didn't think much of their strength at all, and they couldn't flatter them even if they wanted to.

Therefore, Li Nu and others had no choice but to curry favor with the Li family.

Li Nu is not the original name of this person, nor are they surnamed Li. In order to curry favor with the Li family, they all took the initiative to change their surnames to Li, and this person even took the name Li Nu. It means that I will always be a slave of the Li family.

After exhausting all kinds of means, this group of people finally managed to curry favor with the Li family, and they could barely be regarded as the peripheral forces of the Li family.

Of course, the Li family, who knew their details, would not trust them. They just used them as tools to secretly do things that the Li family was inconvenient to do.

Of course, the Li family, which has monks in the foundation building period, can control these slaves who come to the door in a steady manner, and they are not afraid of their petty thoughts at all.

But in the Sand Monster Rebellion more than two years ago, the Li Family's ancestral land was breached by the Sand Monster, and the Li Family was destroyed.

Now, Li Nu and the others immediately turned their backs.

When the Li family was destroyed and the remaining monks were in chaos, they wantonly embezzled the property of the Li family and killed the monks of the Li family.

Even Li Xuan, if he hadn't joined the Taiyi Gate in time, he would have almost ruined the evil hands of this group of people.

If Li Xuan was killed, the mortals under his protection, including his relatives, would be sold into slavery by Li Nu and his gang.

Therefore, Li Xuan hated Li Nu and his gang to death, wishing to kill them.

Meng Zhang also disdains such shameless villains. If the opportunity is right, he doesn't mind helping Li Xuan vent his anger.

Under Li Xuan's hostile gaze, this group of people walked over and slowly approached Li Shengqi.

With a flattering smile on his face, Li Nu took the initiative to walk to Li Shengqi's side, nodded and bowed, as if trying his best to please him.

"Since Li Nu's group betrayed the Li family, they have completely turned against Li Shengqi and other Li family monks. His behavior now must be plotting against Li Shengqi."

Li Xuan looked at Li Nu's actions and made a judgment.

"Aren't you going to remind Li Shengqi? Although you have left the Li family now, you should still have some kindred spirits." Meng Zhang asked casually.

"Master, you have underestimated Li Shengqi too much. This old fox is cunning and cunning, and Li Nu can't be fooled."

"If Li Nu underestimates Li Shengqi, he will definitely suffer a big loss."

Li Xuan made his own judgment based on his understanding of both parties.

On the other side, Li Shengqi scolded Li Nu sternly at first. Li Nu bowed his head and kept explaining something.

After a long time, Li Shengqi's expression softened slightly, and he and Li Nu finally started talking normally.

The banquet lasted for a long time, and it was not completely over until midnight.

All the monks who participated in the banquet returned to their respective residences one after another, preparing to leave Forest Hill tomorrow.

Li Nu sent a group of his subordinates back to their residence, but he himself took advantage of the darkness to sneak to the small courtyard where the monks of the Zhao family lived.

A cultivator from the Zhao family had long been waiting for him to come to the door and brought him in front of Zhao Dong.

"I've met Brother Zhao, but I wonder if Elder Jiudou has rested?"

Li Nu was much older than Zhao Dong, and his cultivation level was stronger than him, but in front of Zhao Dong, he was still obsequious and obsequious.

"The elder has already rested. If you have anything to say, it's the same as what I said." Zhao Dong said coldly.

As a family cultivator, he looked down on a villain like Li Nu who betrayed his master. If it wasn't for Zhao Jiudou's order, he wouldn't want to have any contact with this kind of person at all.

Li Nu turned a blind eye to Zhao Dong's indifference, and said very respectfully: "I've tried my best, but I still haven't been able to win the trust of this old bastard, Li Shengqi."

"However, this old guy has nowhere to turn for help now, and there are no people available under him. He hasn't completely turned against the little one, and he probably thinks the little one is still useful."

"Isn't this nonsense? Who dares to trust you, a traitor like you?" Zhao Dong reprimanded unceremoniously.

"Remember, you have to follow Li Shengqi all the time, and control his every move."

"If he makes any changes, report back immediately without delay."

"Remember the little one, the little one will definitely not miss the big thing."

Li Nu kept nodding.

"As long as you act honestly, our Zhao family will not treat you badly."

Considering that Li Nu still needs to do things, I still have to give him some thoughts. After Zhao Dong reprimanded him, he also wrote a bad check without sincerity.

"The little one must be willing to devote himself to the Zhao family, and die."

"The little one has a request, I wonder if I can make it?"

Li Nu's attitude put Zhao Dong in a good mood. So he said patiently, "If you have any requirements, tell them."

"The little one wants to change his surname to Zhao, and is willing to be a servant of the Zhao family for life."

Li Nu said very humbly.

"Hey, what a few things, you deserve the surname Zhao."

"Get out, get out of here quickly. Grandpa is disgusted when he sees you."

Zhao Dong was really disgusted by this villain and kicked him out immediately.

After Li Nu was driven away, Zhao Jiudou came out from the back room.

"Eighth elder, this villain is really disgusting, I don't even want to see him again." Zhao Dong complained.

"Don't underestimate this villain, he is a really smart person. Isn't the so-called shameless villain a good disguise?" Zhao Jiudou said quietly.

"You mean, he was pretending just now?" Zhao Dong was a little puzzled.

"The false is true when it is true, and the true is false when it is false. Who knows?"

"In short, this person is not simple, and people can't see through it. If there is no other way, I would not think of using him."

There was a bit of helplessness in Zhao Jiudou's words.

Li Shengqi has a big secret. In order to find out this secret, the monks of the Zhao family used many methods, but unfortunately they all failed.

If it hadn't been for knowing that Li Shengqi was determined and determined, and that he had taken the Suoxin Pill, the general means of reading the mind and searching the soul would have no effect on him, I am afraid that the monks of the Zhao family would have taken him down and tortured him long ago.

As a last resort, Zhao Jiudou could only use roundabout methods to slowly achieve his goal.
