Chapter 131: Learning the News
"Oh?"
Li Tongya looked up at Lu Sisi, and saw him full of greed and said:
"The things on the island in the lake should have been the things of our families by the lake! This is a business without capital, how can these loose cultivators snatch it away for no reason!"
"I want to call the An family around, and end this loose cultivator fleet together. We will take this business and do it! Whoever's mortals enter the formation will belong to whoever's family. Brother Tongya, what do you think?"
Li Tongya sat on the main seat. Suddenly, the corpses that were piled up like mountains and blocked the road when he returned home from the Ancient Lijing Dao appeared before his eyes. The teacup paused, he glanced at Lu Sisi, and smiled:
"Does the Yu family want to do this business without capital? Do the families on the other side of the lake want to do it? If Senior Lu cannot sort out the families around the lake and take this business into his hands, it will just be making wedding clothes for others."
Once these words were spoken, Lu Sisi was suddenly stunned. He saw the fleet on the lake and rushed over excitedly. He didn't think so much for a while, and then smiled awkwardly:
"Brother Tongya thinks thoroughly! The old man was reckless..."
Putting down the teacup in disappointment, Lu Sisi racked his brains to find a few topics to chat with Li Tongya. He hit a wall at Li Tongya's place and left in a gray manner.
"The old guy's death is approaching, and his brain is not very flexible... This island in the lake has been searched by Foundation Establishment cultivators of all kinds of religions, I'm afraid it won't bring out any Taixi-level things, it's just a waste of effort..."
After sending Lu Sisi away, Li Tongya was full of melancholy, picked up the teacup and put it down again, and smiled bitterly:
"You wait to see these Zifu, surprised and afraid, life and death are all in the thoughts of others! But these mortals look at you families and sects, aren't they also terrified and slaughtered? The ugliness of the world has always been from top to bottom, which is completely meaningless!"
Having said that, Li Tongya shook his head, secretly asking himself:
"If the family didn't have this magic treasure that condenses Lu Qi with the incense of mortals, could the Li family have insisted on staying in the four towns in the face of Gani Xi's surging military momentum back then..."
"It's better to go and see that fox and ask for some Qi Refining monsters without background to use for sacrifice."
Li Tongya walked out of the courtyard, rose into the air on the wind, followed the mountain veins and searched for a while, and found a large banyan tree with white leaves under a cliff according to the news given by the fox, standing on the hillside.
That White Banyan Fox was lying under the tree with its feet up and its big head up. Seeing Li Tongya land under the tree, it said lazily:
"Brother Tongya, what wind blew you to my place."
This fox had met Li Tongya many times in three years, and they were very familiar with each other. It took the spirit rice in Li Tongya's hand and stuffed it into its mouth. The fox eyes were comfortably pinched into a line, and as usual, it talked about the things it had seen and heard in the mountains in the past few months.
Li Tongya was stunned and surprised:
"Your news is so well-informed!"
"Haha, naturally!"
The fox flicked its tail and said mysteriously:
"My nineteenth cousin's twenty-second uncle is an attendant of a three-eared white fox in the fox cave at the southern foot of Great Lishan. I learned it from their chatting and laughing. This three-eared white fox adult is very powerful. As long as he lies on the edge of the prefecture and listens, the words of those Taixi and Qi Refining will reach his ears..."
"Foundation Establishment demon fox?"
"Zifu!"
The fox shook its head, glared at him, and shouted:
"You think Zifu is called a great cultivator and a great demon because this Zifu condensed a magical power, which is not comparable to ordinary magic. According to personal Dao foundation, there are all kinds of miraculous changes, very powerful!"
Li Tongya hurriedly kept these words in his heart, feeling that this bag of spirit rice was already earned. He touched the fox's head, scratched it until it curled up slightly, and shook his head:
"I am only a Qi Refining cultivator, and I may not be able to break through to Foundation Establishment in this life, so no matter how powerful it is, it has nothing to do with me."
"It's my younger brother who has already achieved Foundation Establishment. If he returns from the Southern Border, it should not be a problem to break through to Zifu within a hundred years."
Having said that, a smile appeared on his face, and he smiled lightly:
"If I am lucky enough to live long enough, maybe I can see the day he ascends to Zifu."
The fox curled its lips and squeaked:
"That would be good, don't learn from that Yu Yuxie, the great Dao foundation practiced by Taiyin Moon Glow, which was hard-made into medicine for that big dragon!"
Once these words were spoken, it was like a thunderbolt exploding in Li Tongya's ears. His mind was blank, he was shocked, jumped up from the ground, and shouted:
"What did you say?!"
The fox had never seen him like this, all its fur exploded, and it retreated, crawling and rolling, stammering:
"Yu... Yu... Yuxie..."
Li Tongya's expression was flustered. He took a long breath to calm his emotions, patted the storage bag, threw the large bag of spirit rice in front of him, and said in as calm a tone as possible:
"Tell me about this Yu Yuxie."
The fox didn't dare to take the spirit rice, squeaked twice, and replied:
"I... when I was serving before my lord, I heard that this person obtained a Taiyin Moon Essence on Wangyue Lake and refined the Dao foundation 'White Jade Plate.' I also saw him come to this mountain to venture; a pair of twin swords beat the various demons into continuous retreat, but later he died in the Southern Border."
"Later, I heard that it was because the Dao foundation cast by Taiyin Moon Glow was miraculous, so it was given to a big dragon in the Southern Border by the Qingchi Sect to be refined into medicine... The Qingchi Sect has done this more than once..."
Li Tongya's body tilted, sat on the ground, stared at the scattered spirit rice on the ground with a pale face and didn't speak. Listening to these words combined with the Qingchi Sect's consistent urine nature and Li Chi's inability to send a letter for more than ten years, the various suspicions in his heart and the hints of the Xiao family became true, and he pursed his lips and didn't speak.
It was the fox that saw him hanging his head and not speaking, panicked, carefully collected a handful of spirit rice on the ground into the bag, licked its fur, and also stared at the ground with its fox head down, not daring to speak.
Li Tongya calmed down, looked at the fox curled up in fear before him, and said hoarsely:
"Thank you for telling me, fellow Daoist. These spirit rice are a reward."
Having said that, he rose into the air on the wind, like a meteor towards Lijing Mountain, regardless of the fox calling and shouting below, chasing a few steps, and saying blankly:
"This is not worth so much spirit rice!"
Lu Jiangxian's spiritual sense lingered out, watching him quietly. To prevent Li Tongya from being suspicious, Lu Jiangxian covered up the three newly added talisman seeds, watching the middle-aged man before him pale, his lips pursed, and his hands trembling uncontrollably.
It was a full half a breath before Li Tongya recovered, his face suddenly flushed, and only then did tears flow out. He tightened the sword at his waist and cried sorrowfully:
"Chi'er ah————"
Tears flowed down the middle-aged man's cheeks. He shouted loudly, his fingers clenched until they were white, and cried:
"Good, good one..."
The cautious personality made him stop abruptly. Li Tongya cried for more than ten breaths, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and only then did he wake up from the dizzy state. He wiped away the blood, and invited the magic mirror back to the stone platform.
Bowing respectfully, Li Tongya wiped away his tears, walked out of the ancestral hall, took a deep breath, and muttered:
"Chi'er... Chi'er ah... it was the father and brothers who misread that Si Yuanbai and pushed you into the fire pit... Second brother let you down."
Holding the long sword in his hand, Li Tongya remembered the letters and techniques Li Chi sent home every year, and the five spirit stones Li Chi saved by living frugally, and his heart was even more sad, saying softly:
"This hatred, second brother remembers it... Chi'er..." ===== CHAPTER 132 =====
