Chapter 483: Rupture

~16 min read 3,024 words

Qindu Mountain. The long-empty main hall finally had a master. The young man in white held a stack of letters and read them carefully. Li Li Yuexiang sat on the side, adding a few words from time to time.

Li Li Xijun had just broken through and spent a few days stabilizing his cultivation base. He soon left the cave heaven to tidy up family affairs. He took the letters handed up and looked at them carefully, understanding the family affairs, and raised his eyebrows in surprise:

"Yuan Yuan Huduo, this person really has something."

According to the news, the Yuan family had settled down and fell into the hands of the second elder Yuan Yuan Huduo. This was not surprising. What was strange was that Yuan Yuan Huduo actually let go of all the enemies in the political struggle, arranged them back into various veins, and except for the few people he hurt when he took action, the rest were actually unharmed, and not even a few heads fell.

"How dare he!"

This truly preserved the Yuan family's strength, but his seizure of the family head position that originally belonged to Yuan Yuan Huyuan was an indelible dirty trace. There were not many of his own people up and down. If he didn't take this opportunity to clear out dissidents, wouldn't it be digging his own grave? Even if he had the support of the Chi family, he shouldn't be so arrogant.

The matter was completely beyond everyone's expectations, probably even Yuan Yuan Chendun and Yuan Yuan Huyuan didn't expect it, let alone the surrounding families. In the struggle of the Yuan family, only Yuan Yuan Huyuan disappeared on the surface, which was suspicious.

"Eight or nine out of ten... is the meaning of the Chi family, just watch."

Li Li Xijun showed a look of suspicion on his face, as if he had some bad guesses, and watched silently for a while. Li Li Xuanxuan looked at it quietly on the side, and an inexplicable look appeared on his old face: "I remember seeing Yuan Yuan Huyuan once when I was young. At that time, the ancestor had just established the foundation, and he came to congratulate, and said some things."

"He said... to be a person who shares the food on the Mount Qingchi table, not a meat dog... but now it seems that even if it is a person who shares the food on the table, in the eyes of the Chi family, it is just a chess piece. What if there is a marriage..."

Li Li Xijun said:

"There is no such thing as a person who shares food. In the final analysis, it is whether there is a Purple Prefecture, or whether there is any human sentiment left by the Purple Prefecture... Xiang'er, continue."

Li Li Yuexiang nodded and continued to explain the things that happened recently, until she talked about Yuan Yuan Fuyao. Li Li Xijun frowned and listened to her finish, suddenly reached out to stop her from continuing, and said softly: "Have you observed carefully? Does Yuan Yuan Fuyao really know nothing? Yuan Yuan Huyuan didn't send loyal people to follow?"

"No."

Li Li Yuexiang responded and hesitated: "It doesn't look like he knows nothing, it looks like he knows a little bit, but lacks a lot."

Li Li Xuanxuan heard this, just paused slightly, with a look of surprise, and couldn't help but ask Li Li Xijun: "I didn't know what this person thought before, and I felt that Yuan Yuan Chendun didn't send anyone to follow this child, but Yuan Yuan Huyuan didn't know how to send a reliable person to watch? Let him act on his own here, he is just a half-grown child, what can he understand..."

"Oh?"

Li Li Xijun lowered his head, took a pen and annotated a few words on the paper, paused for a few moments, and said warmly:

"Yuan Yuan Chendun trusted the wrong person and fell into the planning of Yuan Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Yuan Huduo!"

"What?"

As soon as he said this, Li Li Yuexiang and Li Li Xuanxuan were both shocked and pondered silently. Li Li Xijun had some guesses and said softly:

"I'm afraid Yuan Tuan is also hopeless."

Before he could speak, he saw someone come up from below, whispered a few words in his ear, and Li Li Xijun's face sank:

"Went out?"

"Back to the adult, this young master claimed to be in seclusion, but actually left the territory late at night and went south. Our people followed silently for a while, didn't dare to stop him, and could only let him leave."

"He is afraid he returned to the Yuan family."

Li Li Xuanxuan was a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, so how could he not hear these two whispers? He was unhappy and opened his mouth:

"How can he act like this! He is not afraid of offending our family! Fortunately, this matter is a private agreement between the two families, otherwise it would be thought that he escaped the marriage contract!"

Li Li Xijun put down the letter paper in his hand, leaned on the wooden chair, raised his sword eyebrows, and thought:

"If you ask me, as long as Yuan Yuan Chendun is not confirmed dead, this kid of the Yuan family offending our family can also have a different way of life. It is hard to guarantee that Yuan Yuan Huyuan will bet on both sides and play some tricks."

Li Li Xuanxuan was a bit confused and thought carefully, but saw Li Li Xijun sipping tea carelessly and replied: "Wait a moment, if Yuan Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Yuan Huduo are of one mind, and Yuan Yuan Chendun trusted the wrong person, Yuan Yuan Huyuan will arrive at our family's territory soon."

Li Li Yuexiang thought, and said in a low voice: "Could it be that the chaos of the Yuan family was intentional?"

As soon as her voice fell, there was a commotion below, and a Mount Yuting guard came up, armor clanking, respectfully bowing:

"Report to the adult, Yuan Yuan Huyuan of the Yuan family asks to see you."

Li Li Xijun laughed, looked at Li Li Xuanxuan, and said coldly: "Sure enough, the direct line is acting and fighting, sacrificing this Yuan Yuan Chendun father and son to preserve the overall situation! The Yuan family wants to split with our family, Qingsui, and Yuan Tuan, so that they can be a good dog under the Chi family!"

The Yuan family, although getting worse day by day in the Mount Qingchi Sect, is still quite powerful and retains considerable autonomy. Back then, Yuan Yuan Licheng, who sat down, was a disciple of Chi Chi Buzi, which made the Yuan family prosperous for many years.

But now Yuan Yuan Licheng has sat down, Chi Chi Buzi is missing, and the Yuan family has become a place where two sects fight, so they want to invest in the Chi family's vassals.

"It seems that Yuan Yuan Chendun may have left people and letters to remind his kid, but they were all intercepted by Yuan Yuan Huyuan. No matter what, this person has become the fuse for the rupture between the two families."

He laughed, revealing white teeth, and said in a low voice:

"How can the Chi family's dog get along with the Xiao family's dog? It's just that the Chi family's orders have to be followed. They want to split clearly with several families so that the world knows, and they are afraid of offending our family, so they sent out a Yuan Yuan Huyuan to compromise and ease, good calculation! Good calculation!"

Li Li Xuanxuan didn't understand, pondered back and forth, and said in a low voice: "You mean... the Yuan family didn't think about resisting at all, and had already invested in the Chi family. It was just a show to gain the trust of others. Yuan Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Yuan Huduo were already colluding. Yuan Yuan Chendun was kind, but Yuan Yuan Huyuan wanted to use this matter to embarrass our family and please the superiors?"

Li Li Xijun narrowed his eyes and said:

"Not much difference. Our family is on good terms with Ning and Xiao. The Yuan family became a dog, so naturally it can't be like the past, betting on both sides."

"One side is whether we can find Yuan Tuan, and whether our family can be dragged into the water by him. If these two things can be ensured, the Yuan family naturally wants to be independent..."

"If our family is unwilling to be involved in this matter, this inexplicable marriage can also be broken with our family in a big way. No matter whether our family agreed or not, as long as it spreads that Yuan Yuan Fuyao repented of the marriage and fled, the two families can be separated cleanly."

He quickly deduced the front and back clearly and said softly:

"I'm afraid that on the day he came to ask the uncle if he could help, he got a negative answer. Yuan Yuan Huyuan decided to invest in Chi, and Yuan Yuan Chendun's letter could no longer reach Yuan Yuan Fuyao. No matter what, this person became the fuse for the rupture between the two families."

Li Li Xuanxuan felt sad and angry, and just said: "Yuan Yuan Huyuan has seen my uncle. I thought he would be on good terms with our family for generations. How could he end up like this? Even if it is forced by the situation, there is no need to use such means!"

He was about to get up and go out, but was comforted by Li Li Xijun, seeing this young man say:

"I will deal with him."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan looked very embarrassed when he came in, his breath was withered, but he saw a handsome young man greet him, white clothes better than snow, followed by Li Li Yuexiang. He was stunned and tentatively said: "I don't know if Li Xuanxuan fellow Daoist..."

"The senior came at an unfortunate time, the elder is in seclusion... I am Li Li Xijun, Li Yuexiang is the junior's sister, I have seen Senior Yuan Huyuan."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan glanced at the young man's expression, only feeling that he was more difficult to deal with than Li Li Xuanxuan, and said hoarsely:

"Another Foundation Establishment, your family is really full of talents, which makes people admire."

Li Li Xijun shook his head and said softly: "Senior praised, I don't know what the senior came here for this time?"

Yuan Yuan Huyuan's old face collapsed, and he said sadly:

"I am alone... The Yuan family has fallen into the hands of my younger brother. He is determined to invest in the Chi family and has become a vassal of the Chi family... I'm afraid... he doesn't care about the friendship between the two families and wants to do some stupid things!"

"Oh?"

Li Li Xijun was surprised:

"Is it to take back the betrothal gift? That's a small matter."

He had a completely ignorant look, called the Mount Yuting guard beside him, and said softly:

"Invite Young Master Yuan."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan only felt his soles numb, and was about to speak, but didn't expect Li Li Xijun to pull his hand very politely and say softly:

"Senior Yuan, the two families have been friends for several generations. Senior has seen our ancestor! Who would let down whom..."

"The friendship of Senior Yuan Yuan Huyuan is here, my sister can chat with him for a few more days..."

This made Yuan Yuan Huyuan sweat on his forehead, and he said pale: "Actually... I'm afraid..."

But he saw a Mount Yuting guard come up in time, knelt down and shouted: "Report to the adult! Young Master Yuan ran away!"

"Ran away?"

Li Li Xijun called out in surprise, with a look of complete disbelief, and just laughed: "How is it possible... go to the farmland and see..."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan was already sweating on his old face, and said sadly: "Li Xijun... don't look for it! He was called back by my younger brother long ago! This matter, let it be! Just sorry for Miss Li Yuexiang!"

Li Li Xijun's face changed, and after a full few moments, he asked quietly: "Senior doesn't want to marry, you can say it directly, why make our family so embarrassed!"

Yuan Yuan Huyuan was tormented in his heart, barely raised his head to look at him, stared at Li Li Xijun, and vaguely saw the appearance of the gray-clothed middle-aged man back then, and couldn't even sit on the wooden chair under his butt.

He had seen several generations of the Li family, although no one could give him the feeling of Li Li Tongya's abyss-like standing back then, Li Li Xijun seemed to be hiding his edge in the snow, seeming to see through his calculations, just sadly said: "I have lost my family, where can I control my younger brother? I'm afraid he will publicize it, so that he will break the friendship between our two families, Li Yuexiang... Li Yuexiang... I didn't expect it to be such a result!"

The publicity in these words is self-evident. The Yuan family wants to break with the Li family, that is, to say this matter as repentance. He raised his old face to look at Li Li Yuexiang, but met a smiling pretty face.

He thought Li Li Yuexiang would be angry or shy, but saw her phoenix eyes blink, and her voice was soft:

"It's okay, I'm okay, Senior."

Clearly the voice was peaceful, but Yuan Yuan Huyuan felt a chill rise, as if he heard the cold sword sound and the unspoken words in those eyes:

'But your family is not necessarily.'

Yuan Yuan Huyuan couldn't say anything anymore, retreated a step silently, and walked out of the main hall, but saw a jade-armored woman standing outside the hall holding a spear, as if she had been listening for a long time. The apricot eyes raised, and she said softly: "I will send the senior out."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan's scalp was numb. He was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator who barely came up with medicine, and his cultivation was not as good as Li Li Qinghong. If he really fought with her, he didn't know how many rounds it would be, just muttering: "It turns out to be Li Qinghong."

Li Li Qinghong flew up with him and said softly:

"It is inevitable that your family wants to invest in the Chi family, but this method is too dirty, the friendship between the two families for many years... it doesn't have to be like this."

Yuan Yuan Huyuan sighed, Li Li Qinghong paused and continued: "Your family has put our family, Yuan Yuan Chendun, and Qingsui Peak together, and made our family lose faith in Yuan Yuan Chendun, which is considered to have broken the friendship between the two families... It's just that if the senior still has some feelings for our family, I hope you will spare Yuan Yuan Fuyao's life."

When the words reached this point, Yuan Yuan Huyuan understood that his family's calculations had been seen through seven or eight, and said softly:

"Yuan Yuan Fuyao will be fine, we are all watching very closely, please rest assured."

Li Li Qinghong clasped her fists and returned with thunder light, leaving Yuan Yuan Huyuan to fly away alone. Recalling the friendship with Li Li Yuanjiao and Li Li Xuanxuan for decades, he only felt cold in his heart, muttering:

"It's just... it's just that the Sword Immortal defeated Chi Chi Zhiyun with one sword back then, and the Li family and the Xiao family were eyebrows and eyes, and the Chi family has always been unhappy, so how can they tolerate me maintaining old feelings! If I don't be ruthless, how can I block the cold words of the Chi family!"

He looked at the horizon, only feeling empty in his heart, recalling Li Li Yuexiang's words and smile, and felt afraid again: "Li Li Yuanjiao is a poisonous snake, and that daughter is probably not much worse... Why is it the Li family!"

If Yuan Yuan Huyuan had to choose for himself, he would be the least willing to offend the Li family among so many relatives and friends, but he was in the waves and had no other way, so he could only fly away with his head buried.

Li Li Qinghong landed back in the courtyard with the wind. Several people were sitting around. Li Li Xijun nodded lightly. The aunt and nephew had not discussed it in advance, but they cooperated tacitly.

Li Li Xuanxuan opened his mouth:

"Yuan Yuan Chendun and Yuan Tuan don't know what happened. If they come back at this time, I'm afraid they will be powerless... It's just that I promised Yuan Yuan Chendun..."

"If Yuan Yuan Fuyao wants to go, can we still send someone to catch him back?"

Li Li Xijun waved his hand and replied: "Not to mention that what Li Yuexiang promised was the situation where Yuan Yuan Fuyao was willing to stay. Who could have thought that Yuan Yuan Huyuan would act like this? Yuan Yuan Chendun himself couldn't calculate it accurately... His cultivation is one of the best, but how can he fight against this kind of old fox compared to power strategy."

He said softly:

"This person has nothing to do with our family from now on, don't mention it again!"

Li Li Xijun turned his head to look at his sister and sighed:

"It's just that you are wronged... The Yuan family wants to split with our family, it is inevitable to take these out to say, some idle words..."

Li Li Yuexiang smiled slightly, sitting quietly by the case, shaking her head: "What is this, others will only laugh at his Yuan family for being fickle, and his Yuan Yuan Fuyao for having no eyes," ===== CHAPTER 485 =====
