Chapter 253: Various Families Congratulate

Yu Xiaogui rode the wind back to Dense Forest Prefecture. Only after crossing a mountain did he see the ground full of beacon fires and bloodstains, and various houses collapsed all over the ground. His heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly landed, staying in place.

The entire market had collapsed into ruins. There were broken limbs everywhere, only dots of fire burning. The corpses on the ground were piled up in disarray, and the half-dried bloodstains were shining brightly on the ground.

Yu Xiaogui's mind went blank for a moment, erupting with grief and anger. His heart ached, and many doubts flashed through his mind.

"How did Fei Wangbai break the Mount Yuting Garrison Array... how is this possible..."

This doubt only stayed in his mind for a second, and another more terrifying, more painful guess drilled into his mind. Yu Xiaogui exclaimed:

"Big Brother!"

He did not hesitate to rise into the air and fly toward the highest hall. The magnificent hall had already collapsed more than half, with rubble everywhere. Yu Xiaogui hurriedly landed in front of the hall. Before he could push the door to enter, the excellent spiritual sense of a Foundation Establishment immortal cultivator let him see the corpses kneeling on the ground.

"Big Brother..."

"This... this..."

The destruction of the entire market was not as painful as Yu Xiao'ou's death to Yu Xiaogui. The blood on Yu Xiao'ou's pierced corpse had already dried, and the old man still had a gentle smile on his face. Yu Xiaogui's expression was dazed, tears flowing incessantly, gnashing his teeth:

"Fei Wangbai..."

————

Li Tongya rode the wind and left, naturally leaving Li Xuanxuan to handle affairs and organize these chores. Mount Yuting Mountain did not have large tracts of spiritual fields, but Mount Huazhong Mountain was a good treasure land. Once the great array was set up, the problem of insufficient spiritual veins for Li family cultivation would be greatly alleviated, and there would even be many surpluses.

An Jiyan and others rode the wind back to Huaqian Mountain. The blood on Mount Huazhong Mountain was wiped clean again, and it returned to the handsome appearance of an immortal mountain spiritual vein. The autumn wind drifted, autumn leaves flew, revealing a quiet and peaceful appearance.

"Congratulations Fellow Daoist! Congratulations to your clan!"

Li Xuanxuan stepped forward quickly. The man in front of him had thick eyebrows and a rugged face. He was an old man, holding a stick in his hand. Looking at his cultivation, he was also a Qi Refining peak cultivator, but there was some sorrow between his eyebrows, pretending to be calm, and he congratulated joyfully:

"Senior Xiding coming in person from thousands of miles away is truly polite."

Li Xuanxuan arched his hands to signal. The person in front of him was precisely the head of the Ding family in the west, Ding Xiding. When the Lu family was divided back then, he entered Wangyue Lake. At that time, Li Tongya personally received him. Now Li Xuanxuan achieved Qi Refining, Li Tongya achieved Foundation Establishment, and was not in the mountain, so Li Xuanxuan coming to welcome him also gave enough weight.

"Senior Tongya breaking through to Foundation Establishment is truly something that makes us admire endlessly. Now I have come to offer congratulatory gifts. The friendship between the two families has been for more than ten years. I only wish for the friendship between the two families to last forever."

Ding Xiding's face was somewhat pale. When he came to the Li family back then, he was at the Qi Refining peak cultivation, and Li Tongya was only at the fifth layer of Qi Refining. Now Li Tongya broke through to Foundation Establishment, but he was still at the Qi Refining peak. It was impossible not to be jealous, but he smiled on the surface and spoke well, offering the jade box in his hand.

"How can this be?!"

Li Xuanxuan waved his hands repeatedly, swept his spiritual sense inside the jade box, and knew it was a Qi Refining level spiritual object, not a very good thing, but enough as a congratulatory gift. After pushing back and forth for a while, he accepted it politely.

Now the Li family had obtained Mount Huazhong and Mount Yuting peaks, completely blocking the Ding family's path into Wangyue Lake, and their strength was powerful. Ding Xiding still did not dare to say much, only showing a flattering look.

The Ding family had two Qi Refining peak cultivators over the years. One was Ding Xiding, and the other was his son, whose talent was also considered good, reaching the Qi Refining peak at fifty-eight.

The Ding family had been huddled for so many years, and it was not easy to produce a Foundation Establishment seedling. Ding Xiding was unwilling to give up, so he was overjoyed, arranging spiritual objects and treasures everywhere, wanting to help him break through, taking advantage of the An, Li, and Yu families harming each other, and first cultivating a Foundation Establishment immortal cultivator.

The Ding family huddled silently for these years, which was to help him break through with all their strength. Unexpectedly, things went against their wishes. His son had been in seclusion for many years, but there was no sound for a long time. A few months ago, Ding Xiding broke through the barrier, only to see a withered bone and bloodstains all over the ground.

Ding Xiding was extremely grieved and did not even dare to make a big splash. He could only bury him quietly. Only after burying his eldest son did Ding Xiding hear that the Li family was advancing north, completely sealing the Ding family's way out. The Ding family had since been sandwiched between the two behemoths of the Li family and the Yuan family, with a bleak future, and could no longer think of anything else.

Ding Xiding suppressed his grief and hurriedly came to pay respects. The old man was naturally pale, full of sorrow between his eyebrows. He had just chatted with Li Xuanxuan for two sentences when he heard a loud voice outside the array:

"Yuan Hu-yuan of the Yuan family, come to pay respects to Senior Tongya! Please open the mountain gate!"

"Ah!"

Ding Xiding's old face changed slightly, and he lowered his head even more, as if he wanted to bury his head in his chest. The Ding family was a vassal of the Yuan family. If he met the Yuan family in this situation, it was really not a good thing. Li Xuanxuan saw his embarrassment and said warmly:

"It is better for Senior to sit in the side hall..."

"This is best, this is best!"

Ding Xiding hurriedly left. Li Xuanxuan then controlled the great array. Outside, a man in a long robe landed. His face was gentle, looking like an honest and honest person. He stepped forward and arched his hands, carefully identifying, and smiled:

"Is it Fellow Daoist Xuanxuan?"

"I dare not be called Fellow Daoist, just call me Xuanxuan!"

The Yuan family's strength was powerful, and Li Xuanxuan's attitude was suddenly much more respectful. Seeing that this person looked quite old, he was polite for two sentences. Yuan Hu-yuan smiled:

"I am Yuan Hu-yuan of Xun Lin Yuan, met Fellow Daoist! Congratulations to Senior Tongya for achieving immortal foundation and great progress in cultivation!"

The news of the Li family had just arrived, and the Yuan family was mostly just getting the news, immediately sending Yuan Hu-yuan to congratulate, which showed the Yuan family's intention to show favor. Li Xuanxuan arched his hands and replied:

"Uncle Zhong went out to handle affairs, which made Senior make a wasted trip, I'm really sorry!"

"No matter, no matter!"

Yuan Hu-yuan waved his hands repeatedly and smiled:

"Speaking of which, I have a fate with your clan. Back then, the Sword Immortal returned home and landed in my Xun Lin Yuan. It was I who sent him back to Li Jing. Unexpectedly, decades have passed in a flash, and the Sword Immortal is already famous in the four borders, but I am still a Qi Refining cultivator. When the Sword Immortal achieves Purple Mansion, I can show off to others!"

Yuan Hu-yuan's intention was originally a compliment, but it made Li Xuanxuan feel a bit sour, but he could not reveal it, so he could only laugh along with him. Yuan Hu-yuan saw that this compliment was not very effective, slapped his brocade bag, took out a long and flat jade box, and opened his mouth:

"My Old Ancestor is thinking of the senior-junior relationship between the Sword Immortal and Sister Yuan Tuan, so he specially asked me to offer a congratulatory gift!" ===== CHAPTER 254 =====
