Chapter 500: Two Pieces of News

~15 min read 2,868 words

Yishan City. The array on Yishan City shone, and the patterns were particularly fierce in the winter snow. Golden light came from afar and landed on the city wall.

"Greetings, General!"

Li Xuanfeng drove the wind and came, carrying a monster covered in scales in his hand. Its blue eyes were staring straight at the sky, and it had been dead for a long time. The guards on both sides retreated one after another, calling him General.

He nodded, came down from the steps, and went all the way to his mansion. He pushed the door and entered. There were no servants in the mansion, and it was even a bit dim. A young man was squatting in the mansion, holding a long bow in his hand, carefully adjusting it.

Li Xuanfeng pushed the door for only a moment, and the young man raised his eyebrows. His face was 70% similar to Li Xuanfeng, especially a pair of sharp eyebrows, with some rebellious attitude. With such a glance, the young man raised his eyebrows and said: "Father is back."

He had no excitement, his lips trembled because of some inexplicable emotion, and he called out to the courtyard:

"Mother!"

Li Xuanfeng stood quietly. The temperature in the mansion cooled down a lot because of the water energy overflowing from the monster in his hand. The old man watched the young man turn his back, and the expression on his face was still very calm.

"Husband!"

Ning Hemian hurriedly came out of the courtyard. She was also old, with late-stage Qi Refining cultivation. She walked quickly to him, her eyes paused on the ferocious wound on his neck, and she choked softly:

"Hey..."

Li Xuanfeng stroked her back, threw the scaly tail he was holding to the side, and his hands were covered with fish-scale-like wounds. He whispered: "Most of them are a group of juniors, but I killed them too urgently, so it is inevitable that there are some injuries."

Li Yuanqin stood on the side, looked at the wounds in his hands, hid one hand in his sleeve, and clenched the bow with one hand, seemingly thinking about something.

Ning Hemian sobbed twice on his chest, soon restrained her expression, and replied: "Since you are back, go see the True Person quickly. He has been moody in recent years, and my family brothers have suffered a lot."

Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly, turned the water beast covered in scales over, broke open its belly, and took out dozens of brocade bags. These brocade bags were all tied into a ball, bloody and hanging on that jade talisman.

He picked up these things, hid his figure, and went out of the mansion quietly.

Li Yuanqin saw it clearly and remained silent on the side. It was not until Li Xuanfeng disappeared that a look of sudden realization and gloomy hatred appeared on his face. Ning Hemian called him twice, and then he came back to his senses and said softly:

"Mother."

Ning Hemian frowned and said in a deep voice: "Your father only has time to return a few times in ten years, why don't you have a smile."

Li Yuanqin didn't speak, and a young and clear voice suddenly sounded in front of the mansion: "Is Brother Qin in the mansion?!"

"It's the two Chi brothers again!"

Ning Hemian was a bit unhappy, but didn't say much. Li Yuanqin picked up his bow and walked out of the courtyard quickly, a warm smile appearing on his face. He pushed open the mansion door and saw two young men standing in front of the mansion, both in Qi Refining cultivation.

The leader had a clear aura, outstanding appearance, holding a treasure sword, and smiled lightly at Li Yuanqin, saying: "Brother Yuanqin."

"Brother Fuxuan."

The three greeted each other very warmly and went to the street together. Li Yuanqin didn't seem to be affected by his father's injuries at all, looking leisurely. The two brothers looked at each other, and the leading young man said: "I heard that the General returned to the city, how is it?"

"Him..."

Li Yuanqin looked at the long bow in his hand with interest and said casually: "He went to see the True Person as soon as he entered the door. How do I know how he arranged it? I only count on his archery, but he refuses to teach it to me!"

The two laughed, and Li Yuanqin walked swaggeringly on the street with his hands behind his back, his expression arrogant, raising his eyebrows and opening his mouth:

"Let's go drink!"

The two brothers looked at each other and embraced him forward, their eyes full of arrogant laughter.

The Chi brothers only followed him silently, one laughed secretly, and transmitted his thoughts with spiritual sense:

'Li Xuanfeng has been out for ten years. He hasn't managed this kid for ten years. He has long become a dandy that you and I can manipulate at will. The arrangement in the clan is truly wonderful! As long as this kid is in our hands, when the element dies, Li Xuanfeng will be constrained to protect the clan, and will eventually have to be a running dog for our family.'

The other touched his beard happily, and also replied with spiritual sense:

'What's more, Li Yuanqin has a great seniority. In fifty or sixty years, he will be the person with the highest seniority in the Li family. If he is sent back to Qingdu, the Li family will also lose half of their autonomy.'

The two thought of the proud place and looked at Li Yuanqin in front of them. Li Yuanqin was also laughing. He followed his father, born with a fierce look, and when he laughed, there was an inexplicable coldness.

Li Xuanfeng drove the wind into the cave. Only white fog was everywhere, and the door had already been opened, waiting for him to come.

He stepped in. True Person Element was sitting in the first seat as usual. There was even a cloud of fog covering his face, covering his face tightly.

Opposite sat a young man in blue and white robes, with a handsome face, curved eyebrows, and somewhat feminine appearance. He was holding a jade cup, tasting it carefully, and looking down with a smile.

"Xuanfeng greets the two True Persons."

Just looking at this person's posture, it was likely a True Person. Li Xuanfeng bowed down like a golden mountain collapsing and a jade pillar falling, and saw the handsome young man nod, and Element waved his hand and said:

"Li Xuanfeng."

After he finished saying this, he cast his gaze on Li Xuanfeng again and signaled: "This is True Person Pu Yu, the Sect Master of the Penglai 【Quhai Sect】."

Li Xuanfeng bowed again, but True Person Pu Yu spoke first, saying gently:

"Don't be polite, my founding ancestor was a cultivator of the Wei State, so there is some fate."

He said this, but a light shone in those handsome eyes, deep blue, falling on Li Xuanfeng, and he let out a soft huh.

Element seemed to have expected it, drinking by himself, True Person Pu Yu said softly: "The blood energy is very outstanding, born with divine power, it is indeed a good body."

He said this, but did not avoid Li Xuanfeng at all, laughed twice, and asked: "Senior Element, are you going to live in this body?"

Li Xuanfeng's expression did not change, listening silently, and saw Element chuckle twice, the fog on his face shook slightly, and he said lazily:

"Forget it, I'm not used to other people's bodies, and I'm too lazy to perform those many spells. If I had the heart, I would have been at the peak of Zifu long ago. Why come here to survive today."

True Person Pu Yu laughed and replied: "The sea is boring and uninteresting. You Element are the first-class among the boring."

Element laughed and replied:

"If I had performed the wonderful method of continuing the path, Chi Wei would have laughed alive. That Bili Immortal Sword would probably break through the Grand Void and cut my head off."

True Person Pu Yu was silent and said softly:

"Li Jiangqun..."

Element waved his hand and only asked:

"What is the situation in the North Sea?"

True Person Pu Yu replied:

"Qing Jifang and others found signs of spiritual energy changes in the North Sea, and went all the way to the north of the North Sea, where jade rain fell, scaring several people to run away."

"So it's in the North Sea."

Element was not surprised at all and replied: "The Shanyue fight back and forth just to make a gesture. They had already made preparations in the North Sea long ago. I think Qing Jifang also received the order from that person on Mount Zhanghuai and specifically found that place."

"Not bad."

True Person Pu Yu nodded and said gently:

"Since it has been discovered, there is nothing to hide. Just wait for some days, the Shanyue Sect should have an invitation for the ceremony."

The two talked to this point, pulled Yuanwu out to mock him, and the interest was exhausted. True Person Pu Yu bowed his hands to say goodbye, looked at Li Xuanfeng with a smile, and said:

"This child has a firm heart, breaks through the red dust, and the future can be expected. Fellow Daoist, why not break through the Tangjin Sect and take the 'Heavenly Xu Zengjin Scripture' back?"

The fog on Element's face fluctuated, and the face under the fog was somewhat vicious, only replying:

"Situ's child is not dead, I'm afraid of being calculated."

As soon as his voice fell, True Person Pu Yu had already disappeared. Only then did Element dispel the fog on his face.

True Person Pu Yu can cure yin and yang, know life and death, and is an overseas cultivator. If he didn't cover it up, Yuanwu's warning was in front, I'm afraid he would fall into some kind of calculation again, so Element had to cover his face all the time.

Seeing this person gone, Element rested, looked at Li Xuanfeng, and asked: "How is it?"

Li Xuanfeng replied: "The True Person's order, I have completed 90%, the rest are either hidden in the mountain, or do not come out of the island. Xuanfeng is incompetent and cannot find a way to start."

Element waved his hand indifferently, picked up a large group of storage bags on the ground, and sure enough, looked at them all without opening them, and knocked twice on the case.

Soon footsteps came in front of the cave door. Ning Heyuan hurried up. Element picked up this group of storage bags and threw them into his arms casually, saying casually: "Take them to Chi Zhiyun! How to speak, you have a count in your heart."

Ning Heyuan bowed deeply and retreated quickly. The fog drifted, and soon only Element and Li Xuanfeng remained.

Element leaned slowly on the back of the jade throne, somewhat tired, and said softly: "Don't run out these days. Yuanwu is going to go crazy these days. When he passes away, you accompany me to the North Sea for the ceremony."

Li Xuanfeng responded and retreated slowly, retreating until in front of the cave. Only then did he look up. In a trance, it was not Element sitting on the jade platform covered by white fog, but a pool of clear green water.

The sound of the flute like weeping and complaining sounded, passing by his ears. Li Xuanfeng retreated from the cave before slowly recovering, sighing secretly in his heart:

"Element's days are numbered."

Qingsong Island.

Qingsong Island is not large, but it has been nourished by spiritual energy in recent years, and the earth veins have also grown. The whole mountain has risen several times, and the mountain range under the sea surface has gradually emerged. Except for the territory originally divided by the sects, some overseas Foundation Establishment forces also have some outposts.

But in ten years, it passed in a flash. The spiritual energy on Qingsong Island declined year by year. After all, it was not a blessed land. It was just that the ancient cave heaven once stayed there, so the spiritual energy was rich, and it slowly returned to its original appearance.

As a famous force in the sea, the Qingchi Sect occupied a separate peak, with pine trees everywhere and wind blowing.

Li Xizhi sat quietly in the mountain. Li Yuexiang was standing by the jade table, dressed in elegant clothes, holding a sword, emitting a trace of fire. Thanks to the spiritual energy of this place, Li Yuexiang had made rapid progress in recent years and had broken through to the fifth layer of Qi Refining.

Li Xizhi was as elegant and at ease as ever, his cultivation had broken through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and his spells were even more refined. He just quietly pondered the spells, and various rainbow lights appeared around him, which was quite mysterious.

After waiting for a moment, someone soon came up to report: "Report to the Daoist, Han Shizhen comes to visit."

"Let him come up."

Hearing that Han Shizhen came, Li Yuexiang found an excuse and soon retreated. Li Xizhi put away the jade slip, and saw a middle-aged man come up, smiling heartily, only saying: "Greetings, Daoist!"

This person is the head of the Dongliu Han family, and his cultivation is quite good. When he was the young master, he personally came to the Li family, got on the Li family's line, and sold 【Wanling Flowers】 with the Li family.

The Han family is quite close to this place. Han Shizhen is a character who is active in making friends and is willing to let go of his face. He is very open. Hearing that the Li family has a Daoist guarding here, he immediately took it to heart, came more than ten times in a row, sent gifts, and got close, and finally got on this mountain.

After all, this person has friendship with his own family, so Li Xizhi let him go. After several years of unremitting efforts, he really made some friendship.

Han Shizhen smiled warmly, first asked about his well-being, and then said: "This time I come, I have a piece of news to tell the Daoist."

Seeing Li Xizhi look over, he put on a serious expression and said in a deep voice:

"Daoist, I have obtained some clues, I am afraid Yuan Chengdun has already passed away!"

"What?"

Li Xizhi only frowned, and saw Han Shizhen hurriedly take out a blue stone from his sleeve, handed it to him, and said in a deep voice:

"A few days ago, a group of loose cultivators came to the Qunyi Strait, brought back many spiritual objects, and sent them to my workshop for sale. The people under my hand kept reporting up, saying that these spiritual objects were unheard of."

"I went to see it myself, turned over several ancient books, and recognized that this is 【Zhenxie Stone】, which has long been extinct overseas, and only remains in the sea... so I asked those loose cultivators carefully and learned that it was spat out from the air out of thin air and fell into the sea."

"I heard that Yuan Chengdun practiced 'Fu Qingshan', and after his death, he transformed into this spiritual object! I became suspicious in my heart, searched carefully, and sure enough found many on that seabed."

Li Xizhi had deep knowledge and reacted immediately to his meaning, saying softly: "You mean... he died in some secret realm, transformed into a spiritual object, fed back to heaven and earth, but was excluded by this secret realm and thrown into the sea?"

"Daoist has good knowledge!"

Han Shizhen hurriedly flattered him. Li Xizhi was entrusted by his master's grace and cared very much about Yuan Tuan. Over the years, he had searched all over the East Sea. Han Shizhen understood that he was concerned about this place, so he came to report to him as soon as he had news.

Finally getting clues about Yuan Tuan, Li Xizhi was moved and only asked:

"Have you found those two Fumo copper sticks?"

Han Shizhen shook his head. Li Xizhi thought for a breath and immediately made a deduction, saying softly:

"If this matter is really Yuan Chengdun's death, those two Fumo copper sticks might have been picked up by them long ago. They are on these loose cultivators, but they are too precious, hidden carefully, and unwilling to tell you."

Han Shizhen was stunned and immediately reacted, annoyed:

"I was careless! After getting the deduction, I didn't dare to be careless, and immediately came to find the Daoist. I should have taken them down earlier."

Li Xizhi had long known that East Sea cultivators had no bottom line or morality, and was not surprised, saying in a deep voice:

"I will go to that workshop with you, and take a look at where it is in the Qunyi Strait." ===== CHAPTER 501 =====
