Chapter 113: Xuanfeng Leaves Seclusion
Li Xuanling went down the mountain. He had already broken through to the third level of Fetal Breathing, the Chengming Wheel. The green blade in his hand was also wiped clean, and he wore a simple long robe. His appearance was quite similar to Li Tongya.
People in the mountains mature and reproduce early. The teenager was thirteen or fourteen years old and had grown a lot. His eyebrows were steady. When his two older brothers, Li Xuanxuan and Li Xuanfeng, talked to him, they couldn't help but think of Li Tongya, and they were a little dumbfounded.
The spirit rice in late spring was green. This crop of spirit rice had grown for a year and a half and was ready for harvest. The villagers were cutting it with large axes attached with the Golden Light Technique, and several Fetal Breathing cultivators of other surnames were pinching the formula to prepare to dehusk the spirit rice.
Li Xuanling looked at the busy people in the field, a smile on his face, and was about to walk closer to watch, when a harsh whistling sound rang in his ears, shaking the people in the field to cover their ears.
"Who?!"
Li Xuanling's expression was solemn, his right hand quickly rested on the hilt of the sword, and he looked up at the sky when he heard the sound, seeing a golden figure stepping on the air, and frowned:
"Qi Refining?"
He had already pinched a signal talisman from his bosom, ready to cast the talisman to warn the surroundings.
"Hahahahahaha!"
But he heard the man laugh loudly, and the sharp true essence of light gold slowly retracted into his body, revealing his true face, holding a pitch-black long bow in his hand.
"Brother Xuanfeng! You... you have left seclusion?!"
Li Xuanling exclaimed, put away the talisman in his hand, and was overjoyed, saying repeatedly:
"Great... great!"
Li Xuanfeng laughed loudly. After breaking through to Qi Refining, even his eyes became much sharper. The true essence on his body made the branches and leaves beside him rustle. He fell to the ground and teased:
"Not confident in me? It's just breaking through to Qi Refining... it's easy... nothing to celebrate!"
But the pride on his face could not be covered. Li Xuanfeng smiled and asked:
"Has anything happened in the family in the past few months?"
"Only good things! A mineral vein was found in the family!"
Li Xuanling couldn't hide his joy and laughed:
"It's a pity that father is in seclusion. I will go and notify him!"
"Eh!"
Li Xuanfeng stopped him and shook his head:
Li Xuanling was about to speak, but saw Li Xuanfeng suddenly look up, staring at the sky and whispering:
"Who is this?"
Li Xuanling hurriedly looked up and saw a person riding the clear spirit true essence, wearing a white robe, with white hair and a youthful face, holding a jade ruyi in his hand. It was Lu Sisi.
"I have met Senior!"
Li Xuanling cupped his hands at Lu Sisi and explained in a low voice:
"This is the senior of the Lu family in the east."
Li Xuanfeng suddenly realized, smiled and cupped his hands:
"I have met Senior!"
Lu Sisi raised his eyebrows and looked at him, asking suspiciously:
"You are..."
Li Xuanfeng saw that this person didn't even pay attention to Li Xuanling, and felt unhappy in his heart. He said plainly:
"Li Xuanfeng of the Li family!"
Lu Sisi suddenly realized, touched his chin and looked at Li Xuanfeng. Lu Sisi was followed by a girl, wearing a plain skirt and covering her face with a veil. She also looked up at Li Xuanfeng when she heard the words.
"I don't know why Senior is here this time?"
Li Xuanling cupped his hands respectfully. Lu Sisi didn't look up and speak as arrogantly as the previous few times. He lowered his head and looked at him, and said quite politely:
"Come to find your elders to discuss something."
Li Xuanling naturally bowed to welcome Lu Sisi up the mountain. Lu Sisi had come several times and was already familiar with the road. He sat down in the courtyard on the mountain. Li Xuanling ordered people to serve tea and went to invite Li Tongya.
Li Xuanxuan had already gone into seclusion to break through to the fifth level of Fetal Breathing, and everything on the mountain was handed over to Li Xuanling. He was also busy.
After inviting Li Tongya over, Li Xuanling let out a long breath outside the courtyard, but saw Li Xuanfeng standing beside him silently, laughing:
"This old guy brought a teenager, mostly to propose marriage! It's still quite smart."
Li Xuanling was stunned. Only then did he recall the white-clothed woman, curled his lips and said:
"Father may not necessarily agree..."
Li Xuanfeng chuckled and stepped into the courtyard.
————
"Brother Tongya, I have prepared several spirit items and three magic spells as a dowry. Look... what do you think of this matter?"
Li Tongya frowned. Lu Sisi came to the door in person, prepared good gifts, several spirit items and magic spells, saying that he wanted to marry a legitimate daughter of the Lu family with this as a dowry, and insisted on marrying one of the two unmarried legitimate sons of the Xuan generation.
Li Tongya was full of doubts. The Lu family's posture was too low. If they wanted to marry a minor branch, Li Tongya would have agreed without thinking. But this was a legitimate branch, which made Li Tongya have to be cautious.
What is puzzling is that Lu Sisi put his status so low, and the Lu family woman he brought actually had spirit apertures. Although her talent was not high and she hadn't broken through to the first level of Fetal Breathing, the Xuanjing Wheel, at fourteen, it still shocked Li Tongya.
"This Lu Sisi is probably thinking long-term..."
Now the Li family is getting stronger day by day, and eastward expansion is sooner or later. Li Tongya is not without ideas about the Lu family. The legitimate daughter of the Lu family with spirit apertures naturally has no possibility of being a concubine, so she must be married to Li Xuanfeng or Li Xuanling.
If she marries a legitimate daughter of the Lu family and gives birth to a child in ten years, I am afraid it will be another terrible thing, and she will have to bear the reputation of annexing the in-laws, which is not good inside or out.
However, looking up at Lu Sisi, who was full of smiles but full of worry in his eyes, Li Tongya was afraid that a flat refusal would provoke him to do something, so he touched his chin and shirked:
"The children in the family are still young. If Senior wants to make this marriage, you still have to wait a few years."
Lu Sisi nodded with a smile, obviously expecting Li Tongya's answer, and said with a smile:
"That's it. I will come to propose marriage again in a year!"
After speaking, he talked about the green crow mineral, and talked about some boundless gossip, and then took his leave.
The two crossed the courtyard door. Li Xuanling raised his head slightly and bumped into a pair of resentful eyes under the veil. He felt a little regretful in his heart and sighed:
"Also a pitiful person..."
Li Xuanfeng and the two entered the courtyard. Li Tongya looked up and was shocked:
"Xuanfeng?"
With a sweep of his spiritual sense, Li Xuanfeng's first-level Qi Refining cultivation was exposed. Li Tongya immediately smiled and said repeatedly:
"Good, good!"
Li Xuanfeng raised his head, laughed twice, and a sharp light golden true essence appeared in his hand, explaining:
"This is the golden sharp true essence condensed by the 'Golden Radiance Proper Sharpness Art'. This true essence is fast and sharp, and it is also very fast to ride the wind, but it is slightly behind in terms of endurance."
"Not bad!"
Li Tongya nodded repeatedly, full of relief, and praised:
"It's a promising one. We can also comfort Xiangping's spirit in heaven!"
Li Xuanfeng and Li Xuanling were silent for a while. Li Tongya knew he was wrong, so he hurriedly changed the subject:
"What do you think of this Lu family matter..."
"This old man is afraid."
Li Xuanfeng shook his head, a look of pride on his face, and continued:
Li Xuanling nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:
"So that's how it is."
Li Tongya sat down and picked up the teacup, looking at the east, not knowing what he was thinking.
