Chapter 125: Liu Zhangdie

~8 min read 1,597 words

"Respectfully send off the Immortal Master!"

The cloud ship of rosy light flew up from Guanyun Peak, passed through the clouds, and disappeared on the horizon. Li Xuanfeng and the various practitioners stood up together. Xiao Chuting said some customary words as usual, waved his hand to dismiss the crowd, and his figure disappeared above Guanyun Peak.

The surroundings suddenly became lively. A circle of people hurriedly surrounded Li Xuanfeng, scrambling to talk to him.

"Fellow Daoist! I am from the Wu family of Junnan..."

Before the person in front could finish speaking, another person on the other side cupped his hands and interrupted:

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist is married? I am from the Chang family of Jundong..."

"You!"

The two suddenly gnashed their teeth and began to compete. Li Xuanfeng felt a headache. Xiao Yongling, standing to the side, hurriedly intervened and shouted:

"Both of you! This is Guanyun Peak! Please stop and go down the mountain to resolve your grievances!"

He cupped his hands to the crowd again and said politely:

"Everyone, Brother Li has urgent matters with my Xiao family and will be leaving Guanyun Peak together. Everyone, please find another opportunity to socialize. I am truly sorry."

Having said that, he didn't talk to these people anymore, waved his sleeves, and rose into the air on the wind with Li Xuanfeng, leaving the people below looking at each other in dismay.

The two landed in the mountains. Li Xuanfeng gave a bitter smile. Xiao Yongling shook his head with a smile and whispered:

"People in the world are sycophants. From now on, there will be no shortage of this group of people around the Li family. You should get used to it early. These people greet you with a smiling face; if you show them a cold face for no reason, they will hold a grudge against you. If you deal with them one by one, you don't know how much time you will waste. You should withdraw quickly."

After saying this, Xiao Yongling carefully observed Li Xuanfeng's expression to see if Li Xuanfeng was angry because he had interrupted his great moment of vanity. Seeing Li Xuanfeng looking thoughtful, he nodded and smiled:

"The Sword Immortal of Green Ears of your noble family is known to the whole sect! With such a person's protection, the future of your noble family will be smooth!"

Li Xuanfeng laughed heartily, a trace of joy appearing in his eyes and brows. He cupped his hands and said modestly:

"Not at all, not at all! Not as good as Senior Chuting!"

Xiao Yongling saw his expression and immediately knew what was going on. While welcoming Li Xuanfeng inside, he thought to himself:

"This Li Xuanfeng is frank and outgoing, disdaining to cover up, yet not reckless. He has quite a bit of strategy. Compared to Li Tongya, who is as deep as a pool and cautious in his words and deeds, he is much more comfortable to get along with. His talent is high, and within ten years, he will surely be the head of the Li family. I must treat him well."

This thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Yongling's expression became much more flamboyant. Knowing the preferences of people like Li Xuanfeng, he said with a bit of a worldly air:

"I must introduce you to someone! This master is young, but he is already a famous formation master in the prefecture, renowned far and wide. In the entire Li Xia Prefecture, I'm afraid only Wan Huaqian can suppress him by a head!"

"Oh?"

Li Xuanfeng nodded, looking up with anticipation. He saw a young man wearing a fox fur coat sitting in the courtyard, holding a cup and reading a book, with an extraordinary bearing. Seeing the two, he hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands:

"I am Liu Zhangdie, I have met the two of you."

Li Xuanfeng hurriedly cupped his hands in return, and saw Xiao Yongling smiling and saying:

"This master didn't say a word when he heard that the Li family of Lijing was looking for someone, and followed me here. It shows that the reputation of your Li family is now thunderous!"

Li Xuanfeng was stunned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong. Even the various families got the news from flying magic tools with the speed of the cloud ship of rosy light, and it hadn't spread in the prefecture yet. How did this person know?

Liu Zhangdie hurriedly cupped his hands and explained:

"I was once invited by an old friend to visit the Qingchi Sect, where I met the Sword Immortal of Green Ears. We talked happily, and I was shaken by his heaven-man bearing. I once saw that Green Ruler Sword, green and white in one body, quite magnificent, and I still cannot forget it to this day!"

Having said that, he looked Li Xuanfeng up and down. Seeing his gaze like electricity and a wild bearing between his brows, quite grand, he immediately praised:

"Although the old master of the Li family lives in seclusion in the mountains and has no fame, his descendants each have their own bearing! Truly a god-man!"

Li Xuanfeng laughed heartily. Seeing that he was a good friend of Li Chi and described things in great detail, his guard dropped by three points, but he still smiled:

"I didn't expect you to know so much about my Li family."

Liu Zhangdie paused, nodded gently and elegantly, and ended the topic. He was secretly shocked in his heart and thought to himself:

"The figures who become famous in later generations are indeed not easy to deal with. Not only is Xiao Yongling of Yushan mature and sophisticated, but this Li Xuanfeng of the Jin Geng Gang String is only fifteen, yet he is already wild and sharp, extraordinary!"

"In my previous life, I went to the East Shanyue to repair the formation for Yuanjiao. Li Yuanjiao once said after getting drunk that the previous two generations of the Li family both loved and missed the ancestor of the Li family. I thought I could use this to close the distance, but I didn't expect to almost reveal my flaws!"

Thoughts flowed rapidly in his heart like lightning, but his mouth chatted enthusiastically with the two. Liu Zhangdie's experience in the Qingchi Sect was quite moving, and it involved Li Chi. The two listened intently and didn't observe his expression carefully.

"Every time the Sword Immortal of Green Ears engages an enemy, he must start with a sword-drawing style. This style is like a moon or a hook, sometimes as big as a white sail, sometimes flickering like a star, with amazing power, often severely wounding the enemy with one sword..."

Liu Zhangdie bit the bullet and spoke. Seeing the two nodding slightly, he secretly shouted in his heart:

"Fortunately, this Sword Immortal of Green Ears went to the Southern Wilderness seventy years ago and never returned. Yuanjiao also told me about the power of this sword technique. No matter how I make it up, I don't have to worry about how to round it off, otherwise, it would be really difficult for me!"

The three chatted for a while. Xiao Yongling looked at the time and suddenly realized, smiling:

Li Xuanfeng also realized and slapped his thigh, saying:

"Brother Zhangdie! Look at how this formation should be arranged!"

So he described the terrain and orientation of Lijing Mountain one by one, and stated his family's requirements again. After speaking carefully, he asked somewhat tentatively:

"Our requirements are at least to withstand the attacks of Qi Refining late-stage cultivators. I wonder if Brother Zhangdie can arrange this kind of magic formation? How many spirit stones will it cost to arrange it on Lijing Mountain?"

Liu Zhangdie nodded. He had more than a hundred years of experience in arranging formations in his previous and current lives. This great formation couldn't be said to be easy, but it could be considered familiar. He immediately replied:

Liu Zhangdie proudly raised his head. In his previous life, he was obsessed with the formation path and studied hard, even delaying his cultivation. His current formation path cultivation was already hard to find an opponent on this Ancient Lijing Dao. Even the genius formation masters of the Three Sects and Ten Gates could hardly compete with him. Liu Zhangdie felt that even if Wan Huaqian crawled out of the ground, she might not be his opponent.

"Include both mountains! If this can be done, it would be truly great!"

Li Xuanfeng was overjoyed. If Meichi Mountain could be merged into one peak on Lijing Mountain, the safety of the Meichi Mountain cave dwelling would be guaranteed, and there would be no need to consider the formation of the Meichi Mountain cave dwelling. One formation would serve two purposes.

"It's just, I don't know how many spirit stones it will cost?"

Li Xuanfeng didn't agree hastily, but first asked Liu Zhangdie for the specific price.

"Zhangdie is a good friend of the Sword Immortal of Green Ears. He helped me a lot in cultivation, and Zhangdie is very grateful."

Liu Zhangdie nodded, his expression sincere, and replied:

"I hit it off with Brother Xuanfeng at first sight, so I will speak frankly."

"I have deduced this Sun-Instrument Profound Light Formation many times. The cost of placing it on these two peaks should be eighty or ninety spirit stones, and the ordinary price is over one hundred and twenty spirit stones."
