Xuanjian Immortal Clan
Chapter 701: Calculation
As soon as Li Ximing said this, he felt as if he had received a general amnesty. When he kowtowed, beads of sweat fell like rain from his head. He kowtowed nine times before retreating.
"Thank you so much for not killing me!"
Li Ximing didn't care about this little pawn, but everyone in the Li family didn't have a good look on him. An Siwei at the foot of the mountain didn't look at him, and the ferryman also realized what was going on. He retreated down the mountain in fear, and headed north in panic in the night.
Li Ximing sat quietly for a moment, and then a middle-aged man walked up the steps. He was wearing a glorious feather and was graceful and generous. Li Ximing finally smiled and stood up from the case to greet him:
"Brother Zhi!"
Li Xizhi smiled, bowed his head, and saluted:
"I've met Master Zhaojing!"
"Brother, stop teasing me."
When his brother came back, Li Ximing did not put on the airs of a monk from the Zifu. As before, he just pulled Li Xizhi to sit down and said with concern:
"Brother, you have worked hard in the sect these years. You and Zhou Wei have worked hard to support the family. In the past ten years, we have not lost people or lost ground, and many foundations have been built. It is all your credit."
"Most of it is Zhou Wei's contribution."
Li Xizhi shook his head humbly, with a worried look on his face, and whispered:
"I just came back from the ancestral hall, and Uncle Yuan Qin was still worshiping my late uncle... But I bumped into someone from Bai Yedu Immortal Dao leaving in a hurry, but what happened?"
"yes…"
Li Ximing was silent, and Li Xizhi said again:
"In the middle of the Zifu period, Master Bai Yedu Immortal Dao [Ye Huizhen] practiced the rare Duwei Dao tradition, which was difficult to deal with... Also, I saw Changxiao Sect before I arrived at the table. This Immortal Sect is really at odds with my family... Changxiaozi The magical power is powerful, so be careful.”
Li Ximing nodded, and after waiting for a moment, Li Zhouwei came over and saluted the two of them. Li Ximing then pushed out the jade box and frowned:
"This is a congratulatory gift from Bai Yedu Immortal Dao."
The two of them looked at each other with their spiritual senses, and both looked ugly. Li Zhouwei said in a deep voice:
"Reporting to the Master, Wenhu is still on the river bank. He has not been transferred back to Baiye Mountain Gate. He is doing things in the cave every day. Either this person knows nothing about it, or he has something to rely on."
Li Xizhi was silent for a moment. Seeing that Li Ximing was silent, the elder brother of Xiyue generation spoke carefully and clearly:
"I heard that Situ Ku from Boring Gold Gate is still in Qingdu Water Mansion. Did Boring Gold Gate send anyone here?"
"No."
Li Zhouwei responded and said solemnly:
"Situ Mo is a cruel and mean person. He doesn't care about Situ Ku's life. Unless a real person comes to visit with Situ Ku in his arms, he will keep pretending to be stupid and dumbfounded, pretending that this person is not there."
Li Xizhi said:
"The matter of Boring Gold Gate has not yet been settled, and Jin Yu behind the scenes has no intention of intervening. Bai Ye's Immortal Dao is also in the north of the Yangtze River, and is colluding with Boring Gold Gate. My family has no foundation in Jiangbei, and a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, let alone Ye. Hinoki is not weak..."
"That's one of them."
"Secondly, no matter what Chang Xiaozi's purpose is, Chang Xiaomen already has a feud with my family. He is much more terrifying than Bai Yedu Immortal Dao. He keeps silent, but what kind of vicious plot does An Zhi do? It is not appropriate for my family to act lightly."
Li Zhouwei glanced at Li Ximing, who was now Master Zhaojing, nodded slightly and responded:
"What my brother said is true..."
Li Ximing paused for a moment and continued:
"This ferryman is a smart man and he doesn't dare to sit down at the table. If he insults me in public, his life will be in danger. I didn't let him come up on the island, but in Zhijing Mountain...I am afraid of trouble when I see him alone. If you make a fuss, your family will be embarrassed.”
"But…"
Li Ximing sighed deeply:
"All this is just a delaying tactic. Chang Xi is about to fall. Ye Hui and Chang Xiao are not in a hurry. They are all afraid of Chang Xi's counterattack. As soon as Chang Xi dies, the Xuanyue Sect will immediately become a major weakness. It can be easily Deal with my family."
Li Xizhi was horrified, frowned, and whispered:
"I didn't expect the rumors to come true... How much life does the real person have left?"
Li Ximing exhaled:
"His words were very vague and it looked like he was less than three or five years old."
"Isn't it just a matter of time?"
Three to five years is just a matter of seclusion for foundation building! Hearing this news, Li Xizhi's mood suddenly became depressed, and he replied:
"Xuanyue still needs to be entrusted to my family... That will be even more difficult! We have to guard Jiangbei, and we have to take care of the wilderness and Xuanyue."
Li Xizhi couldn't raise any objections to this. When he accidentally entered the dragon land, Xuanyue was the one who used it to cover up. He just choked and said in a deep voice:
"Jiangbei cannot be let go...the boundary of Fuyun Cave will still be controlled by my family."
All three of them understood that once the Li family withdrew from Jiangbei, the next step would be for the three Mifan sects to try to invade the north bank of Yuehu Lake. With Chang Xiaozi and Ye Hui, the pressure would be astonishingly great.
'The North Shore must not be endangered. ’
A Zifu Immortal Clan that cannot even defend a county will inevitably become a joke, and Qingchi behind the Li family... must be happy to see this scene. The Si family desperately hopes that the Li family will be embarrassed and bow to Qingchi for help again. , once this happens, things completely change.
The Li family is different from the Xiao family. Xiao Chuting originally relied on his magical power to achieve the Purple Mansion, and the demon disaster relied on him. He is also an extremely powerful person. Naturally, he has no worries and has completely severed his affiliation with Qingchi. Although Li Ximing broke through, But there was a way out, and there was no complete cut. Li Xizhi did not leave Qingchi. It was ambiguous. In name, he was still a member of the immortal clan of Qingchi.
Once you ask Qingchi for help, you are not a fairy in name only, but you have spread all this out and confirmed it, and you have truly become a vassal of others.
There was silence in the mountain for a moment, and then Li Xizhi asked:
"Does Master Chuting have any instructions?"
Li Ximing organized his words and replied:
"The real person hinted that I can break off from Xuanyue. He may not mean it sincerely. It may be a test. But judging from the situation, he will never take anyone's side. Now he has the intention to stand up."
He whispered:
"Unless my family falls to either Jin Yu or Heng Zhu... what's the difference between falling to Jin Yu and bowing to Qing Chi? Heng Zhu is far in the south, and at best he can be an ally, but Heng Zhu doesn't have many enemies! "
Unless absolutely necessary, Li Ximing would never consider turning to the Third Sect. He just poured tea and sighed:
"After these three to five years, the situation will inevitably become difficult."
Li Zhouwei on the side raised his eyebrows and glanced, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice:
"Master Chang Xi... It seems to me, this junior, that Ye Hui and Chang Xiao are waiting for Master Chang Xi to fall and have not taken any action, but we cannot just sit back and wait for death."
"It's better to take advantage of the fact that Master Chang Xi is still here, settle all the issues in Jiangbei first, and give Boring Jinmen and Baiye Duxian Dao a hard blow... and stand firm in Jiangbei..."
Li Ximing nodded and said:
"I know what you mean, but it is nothing more than taking over most of the territory of the two Mifan sects...Can it also bring any substantial losses to Bai Yedu Immortal Dao? As for Boring Gold Gate, there is Jin Yu behind it. You can only claim compensation, not Move lightly."
"When Chang Xi dies, how can we defend the two huge lands of Mifan? They can only be lost overnight."
Li Xizhi remained silent, while Li Zhouwei answered with a sonorous voice:
"Master! If you take a step forward today, you will have one more step to retreat tomorrow! Even if the realm you retreated from fell into the hands of Bai Yedu Immortal Dao again... it will be completely wiped out. It is much better than being in his hands forever..."
Li Zhouwei said in a deep voice:
"What's more, the current situation is gradually deteriorating for my family. The one who wants to maintain stability now is the Baiye Capital Immortal Dao, and I, the Li family, are seeking change. Only when there is chaos will there be change. How many more variables will An Zhi bring to the fight for three to five years? "
"No matter how things change in the future, it's better than doing nothing and just holding on to the boundaries of Fuyun Cave and waiting for death!"
Li Ximing looked at each other and nodded decisively:
"good…"
Li Ximing then stood up and said seriously:
"All matters related to Jiangbei have been handed over to Minghuang! If you have any requests, feel free to mention them to me. I'll go see Chang Xi. I have the handle on Wenhu, and there's a lot to be done!"
He gently shook his sleeves, and a jade box, stone box, and various spiritual objects suddenly appeared on the case. Li Ximing only said:
"Here are the gifts from all the families. There are several magical weapons. Minghuang will take them down first and share them with Cheng and the others."
Li Zhouwei thanked him respectfully, put away his things together, and was about to leave. Li Xizhi also took out two jade boxes and said softly:
"Qingchi's gift is [Suiyuan Danfang]. I have collected these two magical artifacts at the real person's place. They are not very precious. I will add them to my home for use first."
Li Zhouwei thanked him respectfully and left. Li Xizhi said regretfully:
"It's a pity that I am the master of Qingchi Peak... Qingchi cannot allow me to take action at will."
Li Ximing waved:
"I have wronged my brother... and I have to make peace with the Si family. Besides... once we leave Qingchi, if Chi Buzi pursues the case in the future, Si and Lingu will definitely blame everything on my family. They can destroy my family without any scruples, but they still have to hang up. A name.”
After he said this, his expression became solemn and he said in a deep voice:
"I have something to tell my brother, it's very important!"
Li Xizhi also looked serious, so he listened to Li Ximing and said:
"Yang Tianya has broken through Zifu a long time ago! He has been hiding for decades!"
Li Xizhi was really stunned and raised his head in disbelief. Li Ximing immediately finished the story about the people in the underworld. Hearing Li Xizhi think deeply, he said after a long time:
"Yang's plan is very big."
Li Xizhi only understood everything in his heart when he heard that Yang Tianya had already broken through Zifu.
From the Yuyi that Yang Xiaoer gave him to protect him one after another to the moment when Tuoba Zhongyuan hesitated when Yang Ruizao gave him the talisman, and even from Yuan Tuan's marriage discussions with the Yang family and the sudden change in the situation of the Chi family, everything was there. There are some shadows that seem to be there or not.
"I see."
Seeing that Li Xizhi knew what he was thinking, Li Ximing said no more. Li Xizhi quickly put aside the conversation and asked:
"Who are the real people planning to visit?"
This is a troublesome matter. Li Ximing was already somewhat prepared and replied:
"The first is, of course, Master Yuan Xiu. The second... I have to meet Senior Xiao... and the third... I am in trouble."
Li Xizhi was slightly surprised and asked:
"Senior Dragon Slayer..."
Li Ximing shook his head:
"Master Chuting said that he doesn't want to be involved, and he won't be able to see him if he goes."
Li Xizhi immediately understood and started counting:
"There is no need to go to Xuanyue, Chang Xi doesn't care about these anymore. As for Xue Ji, Chang Xiao, and Zi Yan, there is no need to consider it. The remaining ones are Jianmen, Jin Yu, Heng Zhu, and Lu Kui."
Jin Yu and Heng Zhu are in a difficult situation. No matter how they go about it, it will be a big offending thing. Jin Yu offends Heng Li, and Heng Zhu offends Tian Zhen. However, both families seem to treat the Li family well.
"Tianyi and Hengli are not easy to fool. Going to the other two will inevitably make people dissatisfied..."
Li Ximing said:
"Actually, you can also go to the Sword Sect. Your senior's sword intention is recorded in the sword book. In the name of paying homage to your senior's sword intention, it's not considered perfunctory."
Li Xizhi didn't know much about these things and didn't say much. He only reminded:
"Uncle Yuanqin is here. I still need to see you."
…
Pingyazhou.
The main hall was bright and bright, Li Xuanxuan was sitting in the hall, wearing a blue and gray robe, and two people were coming in from outside the hall.
The leader is a woman who has built a strong foundation. She looks to be in her forties and still has charm. She is wearing a white robe and sapphire. Her face can be seen as pretty as she was when she was young, but she did not use magical power to maintain her appearance. Old-fashioned.
The man in black behind him is heroic and has a foundation-building cultivation. His magic power is not very good, but his eyebrows are very sharp.
The woman bowed softly and said respectfully:
"He Mian has met his brother!"
Li Xuanxuan quickly helped her up, looked at the two of them with slightly excited eyes, nodded and said:
"Brothers and sisters...we had no chance to meet each other in the past..."
"Yuan Qin pays homage to uncle!"
Li Xuanxuan looked old, and Li Yuanqin was very polite to him. The old man quickly supported him and looked at him, his eyes were slightly red, and he only said:
"It's so similar..."
He didn't know whether he was talking about Li Xuanfeng or Li Xiangping. Li Yuanqin listened silently, and Li Xuanxuan said repeatedly:
"Of the four bloodlines in the family, the uncle's bloodline is often missing... When Yuan Qin comes back this time, he doesn't have to leave. He can return to his position and fill it up with the younger generation, so that he can continue his uncle's legacy."
Li Yuanqin hesitated to speak, but Ning Hemian spoke. She said softly:
"Brother, my elder brother did not know what is good and what is good. He caused his own death, and even his entire bloodline was cut off. Not even a single sapling was left."
"Fortunately, my younger brother Ning Heyuan has an orphan who is not yet ready to be a useful person. The Ning family is entirely supported by Qin'er... At this time... it's really hard to go back..."
Li Xuanxuan was speechless immediately. He couldn't say more about Ning Hemian's words, but Li Yuanqin had been in the clan since he was a child and had no feelings for the Li family, and he had no intention of staying.
He hesitated for a moment. The sky light penetrated from outside the hall and transformed into two men. One was in a platinum Taoist robe and the other was in a glowing feather robe. They stopped in the hall. Li Yuanqin immediately raised his hands to bow:
"I have met the real person Zhaojing and the master of Zhutian Pavilion."
Li Xizhi didn't dare to let him bow, so he helped him up. He heard what he just said and advised:
"Brother-in-law... There is no uncle in the family, so I still need your support... If my late uncle could see this situation, he would also like you to stay in the clan..."
Li Ximing took the words and said seriously:
"This junior is about to meet Master Yuan Xiu. As long as my uncle says a word, there is no need to worry about the rest."
Listening to the two people speaking, Li Yuanqin only replied respectfully:
"In my family, I have Master Zhaojing, Master of the Jutian Pavilion, Minghuang and Chengcheng, several Taoists. They are as stable as Mount Tai. My mother's family, the Ning family, is crumbling. My mother is unable to support herself. I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the family. Please forgive me."
He looked resolute, and Ning Hemian also made a request. Li Xuanxuan could only shake his head and sigh, and sent them off. Li Ximing waited in the court for a while, and then Li Xizhi returned from the clouds and sighed:
"If the four meridians cannot be completed, I'm afraid it will be a pity for the great father."
Li Ximing only said:
"When my uncle has an heir, bring him back... Even if he is a mortal, if there is no peace in the family from now on, it would be better if he stays in Qingchi."
