Chapter 257: Meeting Old Friends

The turmoil caused by the Li family passed for half a month. The autumn meaning on the lake became more intense, and the lake water became more deep. The lakeside was red and yellow, and gradually there was a chill.

The Fei family gained benefits and huddled on the North Bank without making a sound. That Jiang Heqian was also afraid that Yu Xiaogui and Yu Yufeng were holding their breath to ambush and retaliate, and did not appear on the East Bank. The Yu family silently licked their wounds in the corner. For a time, it was calm. Except for the market ruins of the Yu family that collapsed and had no movement, it was a peaceful scene.

"How are things?"

Seeing Yu Mugao sat at the very head of the hall, full of exhaustion, his expression gloomy, but his tone had a faint sense of relief. He supported his forehead with one hand and tapped the pen holder on the case with the other. On the case lay an envelope that had been opened not long ago. He asked the person below.

"Elder Xiao'ou has indeed passed away. We stripped away the numerous industries under the names of those people in the name of colluding with the enemy, and there was no objection."

The person below replied. A trace of faint intolerance flashed across Seeing Yu Mugao's face. Yu Xiao'ou also watched him grow up. Seeing Yu Mugao originally wanted this group of waste to die more on Mount Mount Mount Mount Lijing, but unexpectedly, the Fei family broke the Jade Court Garrison Array, and instead took Yu Xiao'ou with them.

The Yu family died too many direct descendants and cultivators in the market, and the place and the family were greatly shaken. Seeing Yu Mugao took advantage of Yu Xiao'ou, the leader of the old clan, dying, and made big moves against a group of uncles and brothers, which was considered to be rectified. The Yu family had fewer of these moths, and actually radiated unprecedented vitality.

"It's also good, no need to persuade Father to give up the market again."

Seeing Yu Mugao lost the market, but felt a sense of relief in his heart. The two characters 'Qingchi' on the letter were quite eye-catching. Seeing Yu Mugao secretly thought:

"Old Ancestor probably won't come back... Father is in seclusion again, the family is finally in my hands, and with fewer of those idiots, it's comfortable."

The Yu family's resources, besides flowing into the hands of those uncles and brothers, also had to be handed over for tribute and to support Yu Yufeng. Now that two places were missing, Seeing Yu Mugao was suddenly at ease. Yu Yufeng's life was mostly not guaranteed. Seeing Yu Mugao did not feel much sadness, only sighing:

"If these people had been removed forty years earlier, and Father and Old Ancestor hadn't gone to toss about blood sacrifices and lake meetings, and all obeyed me, how could they have suffered such a big loss!"

Seeing Yu Mugao looked at the group of young cultivators he promoted, but was full of confidence. The previous Yu family, although powerful, had politics everywhere and was sucked dry by Yu Yufeng. He, Seeing Yu Mugao, still had to bow his head and listen to orders. Now the Yu family, although not as good as before, was Seeing Yu Mugao's Yu family alone.

"As long as I integrate for two years... as long as Muxian is still on Yuanwu Peak, I can play with Li Xuanxuan and Fei Yihe..."

"Decades without returning, and no letters... Master once said that the demon king of the Southern Border loves to eat moonlight, I'm afraid it's not auspicious."

"Senior Brother will come to the lake... I will go into seclusion, Foundation Establishment is in sight."

────

"Brother Xuanfeng! I heard that your clan's senior has newly achieved Foundation Establishment, congratulations!"

Liu Zhangdie rode the wind and flew leisurely. The Jiao Pan Ying Jiao long bow with golden light shining on Li Xuanfeng's back made his eyes shine. He said congratulatory words, but secretly thought in his heart:

"This bow should be Jiao Pan Ying! In the previous life, I helped the Qingchi Sect reinforce the array. When the demons attacked, I only saw that golden light and not the bow. Now I can feast my eyes!"

Li Xuanfeng laughed and replied:

"Brother Zhangdie is always well-informed, truly polite."

Liu Zhangdie only looked at Li Xuanfeng's momentum, actually already at the seventh layer of Qi Refining, and sighed with admiration, congratulating:

"Brother Xuanfeng is not even thirty-five, right? Seventh layer of Qi Refining, I'm afraid he can try to break through to Foundation Establishment at forty or fifty!"

Li Xuanfeng smiled without saying a word, his sharp eyebrows raised, and replied:

"Brother Zhangdie is not slow either, now at the sixth layer of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment is in sight."

The two complimented each other, and Huaqian Mountain had appeared at their feet. Li Xuanfeng led him into the courtyard, and a young man in black welcomed him, walking lightly, and arched his hands:

"Met Senior!"

This person was in black, with upright features and slightly narrow eyes, looking naturally with a fierce air. It was Li Yuanjiao. Liu Zhangdie couldn't recognize him, his expression was strange, and he swallowed the "Brother Jiao" that was about to blurt out, and saw Li Xuanfeng introduce:

"This is the son of eldest brother Li Xuanxuan, called Li Yuanjiao, who is cultivating on Huaqian Mountain!"

Liu Zhangdie saw the young man in front of him, his heart was embarrassed and happy to see an old friend, hurriedly piled up a smile and said:

"I dare not be called Senior! I see Yuanjiao's demeanor is outstanding, and I have quite a bit of admiration in my heart. Let's talk as peers... peers..."

Li Xuanfeng's expression was slightly strange. He called Liu Zhangdie brother, but Liu Zhangdie wanted to talk as peers with Li Yuanjiao. Wouldn't it mess up the generation? For a time, he was silent. Li Yuanjiao had just arrived at Huaqian Mountain, even more inexplicable, and said he dared not be worthy.

Liu Zhangdie could not push it away, so he had to say:

"Brother Xuanfeng is here, so be it. I will talk as peers with Brother Yuanjiao privately."

Li Xuanfeng had to nod, and transmitted his voice to Li Yuanjiao with magic power:

"Liu Zhangdie is a good temperament, and his array ability is also high, but this person has many strange things. If it doesn't matter, let him go..."

So they sat down together, and tea was served. Li Xuanfeng suddenly raised his head with doubts, hesitated for a breath, and asked:

"When I Xuanxuan was young, I once heard that the Tangjin Gate invaded Xun Lin Yuan, killing countless people, but I never heard that your family had any casualties..."

"So it was this matter."

Yuan Hu-yuan paused, seemingly hesitating how to open his mouth, explaining:

Yuan Hu-yuan held the tea and replied:

"My Yuan family plants a massive amount of spiritual medicine and digs spirit stones for the Qingchi Sect every year. The invasion was the Qingchi Sect and the Tangjin Gate dividing the blood and resentment. Just kill small families and mortals, why kill me, this diligent slave?"

A sarcastic smile appeared on his face, he mocked himself, and said in a low voice:

"The Qingchi Sect has ruled for five hundred years. Where small clans plant people, where families plant medicine, where tribes are tethered, and where they practice alchemy with demons are all clearly divided. Five hundred years have only produced the Xiao family as an exception, and it was even Chi Wei who vaguely intended to indulge it to get this result... Don't underestimate the few Purple Mansion cultivators on Qingchi Peak. Five hundred years, even the stupidest demons have learned to become human spirits!"

Li Xuanxuan felt secretly afraid in his heart, silent and speechless. Yuan Hu-yuan glanced at him and smiled:

"The Qingchi Sect sits at the table for a banquet, and we are the little servants kneeling on the ground, enjoying the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the fat and blood of the people. To tell you the truth..."

Yuan Hu-yuan's expression became serious, and his words had a few more words of persuasion:
