Chapter 522: Peak Master

Li Li Qinghong finished speaking, Cui Cui Changfu was suspicious in his heart, and asked softly: "Fellow Daoist... what spiritual object do you want?"

Li Li Qinghong said softly:

"These things are very difficult to find in the sea. They are Early Zifu-level spiritual objects, such as 【Mingfang Heaven Stone】, 【Linwu Spiritual Remains】, 【Bai Du Blood】... No need for a specific one... as long as there is one of them."

Cui Cui Changfu listened to these words, his expression softened slightly, and he smiled: "Early Zifu spiritual object? There was once a 【Mingfang Profound Yuan】... but now there is none!"

Li Li Qinghong was looking for these things to help the younger generation of the family break through to the Early Zifu, and she took it very seriously. However, Early Zifu spiritual objects were hard to find, and she didn't actually hold much hope, but she really got some news, so her expression was immediately refreshed, and she asked:

"Was it traded to which family? Please give some news..."

Cui Cui Changfu finally believed that this woman came for the spiritual object. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and his vigilance dropped a lot, only saying softly: "This branch of mine... was once sent by Wei Wei Gongdi, went far overseas, looking for Penglai... Wei Gongdi was generous and elegant, the country was prosperous, and he was very generous, so we brought a lot of things on the treasure ship."

"Later, there was turmoil in the sea, the Great Void shattered, and the connection was gradually broken. By the time the King of Qi replaced Wei, there was even less news. The spiritual objects left behind were used up one by one, and finally only two copies of 【Mingfang Profound Yuan】 were left."

Li Li Qinghong listened carefully, and then heard him say: "One was given to the Dragon-kin very early, let Dongfang You drink it, and gave birth to the Young Dragon, and one was sent to Mount Changhuai, letting the True Person obtain a descendant. I hear he is called Qing Qing Jifang, just remembering the credit of this Mingfang Profound Yuan."

Li Li Qinghong listened for a while. It seemed that both of these had been used by others, and she was very disappointed. Cui Cui Changfu observed for a moment and said in a low voice: "Fellow Daoist doesn't have to be discouraged... when the 【East Fire Grotto-heaven】 fell back then, I heard that it was presided over by the two True Persons Yuan Su and Zhang Qiushui. There must be Early Zifu spiritual objects in the East Fire Grotto-heaven... even if it was emptied by Chu Yi, the True Person went there once, and there must be some in his hands."

Cui Cui Changfu mentioned Chu Yi, seemingly somewhat raw, his two lips trembling slightly, but it was a word that awakened the dreamer. Li Li Qinghong immediately understood in her heart, and was happy: "That's right!"

She didn't know that the East Fire Grotto-heaven was handled by Yuan Su before. Now that she saw it, he must have Early Zifu spiritual objects in his hands. Her second uncle worked under Yuan Su, so it might be easier to ask for them.

At this moment, she bowed and thanked, and smiled: "Thank you, Senior!"

Cui Cui Changfu looked carefully and nodded. Li Li Qinghong hesitated for a moment, but still opened her mouth:

"Li Qinghong still has one thing... My family also practices the Bright Yang Daoist tradition, thinking of gathering five immortal foundations, so that the path of the family can be smoother..."

She had to make a request that didn't look good, so she put her attitude very low and said warmly:

"If it is convenient, I hope to borrow the Daoist tradition of your clan... We can exchange it with cultivation methods... or magic treasures and spiritual objects, just let your clan propose."

"If you are not willing, there is absolutely no intention of peeking at the Daoist tradition..."

Li Li Qinghong said a few more apologetic words. Cui Cui Wanqing's expression was still gentle, even somewhat moved. The old man of the Cui family's face was not good-looking, and Cui Cui Changfu said hoarsely:

"The Daoist tradition of the ancestors, I cannot lend it."

He refused decisively. Li Li Qinghong apologized, took a spiritual flower from her storage bag, handed it to the two, and said softly:

"Thank you, Senior, for telling me the news. This is 【Wanling Flower】, which can hang life and forget worries, so it counts as a thank you gift."

She was afraid that staying too long would cause anxiety, drove the thunder and rose, said goodbye and left. Cui Cui Wanqing seemed to have a good impression of her, sent her out all the way, and said softly:

"Senior, take care."

Cui Cui Wanqing sent Li Li Qinghong out and landed back on the island, but Cui Cui Changfu was still sitting in place, his fingers tapping on the table uneasily, and his old eyes were full of anxiety.

Cui Cui Wanqing was somewhat curious, sat beside the old man, and said in a low voice:

"Grandfather... this Senior Li Qinghong... looks like a straightforward person, and the family's Bright Yang Daoist tradition is not small, and not all of them are unique. It's better to give it to her... mutual benefit..."

"Sigh..."

Cui Cui Changfu twisted his beard and did not answer her for the first time, saying softly:

"I'm afraid it's really the Wei Li descendants..."

He took a jade slip from his storage bag, checked it carefully, and looked at a map carefully, saying softly: "Wangyue Swamp is in Jiangnan. Back then, Emperor Wu conquered the south and passed through this place... and even met the immortal in the swamp. Could it be that there are descendants left?"

Cui Cui Wanqing was somewhat moved and said in a low voice: "Since it is the imperial clan of the year, Grandfather, why not fulfill them? It's just exchanging a cultivation method... the family can also get some things back..."

Cui Cui Changfu shook his head and said softly: "Dare not anymore..."

The expression on his face suddenly became vivid, and a pair of eyes were very sharp: "Isn't it painful enough? Qi replaced Wei, Li Xunquan led the army to revolt, the ancestors went far overseas, carrying precious pearls to help, so the head was hung on the city of Dianyang, and it was not taken down for nine years."

"Li Brother Xuan restored the country, the Gao Zu went to join him, took away the two great-uncles who were wise and brave at the time, so the country was broken and slaughtered, three magic treasures were lost, and even the treasure ship was lost in the Xu State."

"Dongli established the sect, my grandfather was not yet Early Zifu, drove the wind all the way to join, and handed the entire Chongzhou Island to the Dongli Sect. The Dongli True Person died violently, the sect was destroyed, and my grandfather died in battle. If it weren't for Dongfang You just wanting to take spiritual objects, we would have long ago..."

He sighed and said lightly:

"Up to now, I really can't stand the tossing!"

Cui Cui Changfu's expression was ugly, only saying:

"Wangyue Swamp is located in the place of four chaos. To the west are Taiyuan and Taiyi, to the south and east are Taiqing, and to the north are the Seven Buddhists. Where is it a good situation? Li Xunquan had True Monarchs to help, Early Zifu followers, but still failed and died..."

"This family is still smart, not driven by greed, to claim to be Wei Li... but it stops here... If the connection with them is too deep, I'm afraid I will suffer!"

Cui Cui Wanqing listened and could only sigh and nod. Then Cui Cui Changfu said: "We must preserve the remaining veins, so that there will be a chance of restoration in the future. If we follow every Wei Li that comes, that is called dark and hopeless!"

The words of the two Cui family members naturally did not fall into Li Li Qinghong's ears. She drove the wind all the way back, actually feeling some regret in her heart.

The reason why she wanted to open this mouth was also hoping that the friendship between the Li and Cui surnames might be useful, thinking that there might be some conditions.

But Cui Cui Changfu's appearance was not willing to touch any cause and effect at all, and his tone was not relaxed. Li Li Qinghong saw it clearly, naturally did not do much entanglement, and soon said goodbye.

"After all, so many years have passed, and the Cui family has also suffered a lot of involvement. It won't be so easy to believe... for a Li family member who doesn't know whether it's true or false, it's not bad to have a good face..."

After all, the Battle of Pingmingjin in the last immortal-demon battle, followed by Qi replacing Wei, Liang destroying Qi, and then being destroyed by Zhao Emperor Father Qi Yan and Yan King Lord Murong Lord Murong Dechang, has been more than 1,600 years. Before the change of heaven and earth, True Monarchs had died one and a half, and perhaps the friendship was no longer the same as back then.

"After the Dongli Sect was destroyed, many Cui family members also died. Facing a Li family member who didn't know whether it was true or false, it was not bad to have a good face..."

Li Li Qinghong thought this way, and felt that the Cui family's reaction was reasonable. She looked to the west slightly, but saw several rosy cloud ships flying up, releasing a piece of rosy light.

This cloud ship was huge, and various rays of light were emitted. Li Li Qinghong had paid the tribute, and recognized at a glance that it was a Rosy Cloud Ship, and her heart was shocked.

"Something happened in the sea!"

Profound Pool Sect.

The Profound Pool Sect was usually shrouded in clouds and mist. Perhaps because of the continuous failure of Foundation Establishment breakthroughs in the past few months, the visions shot straight into the sky, and the clouds were much thinner now.

In the clouds not far away, a streak of rosy light galloped rapidly, dragging a tail of six colors. The man on it was elegant and noble, exactly Li Li Xizhi.

Li Li Xizhi drove the rosy light, rushing back from the outside. Just as he stepped into the sect, he saw people coming and going. He landed back on Qingsui Peak, and his junior brother Yuan Yuan Chengzhao rushed to meet him.

He was not yet at Foundation Establishment, with Qi Refining peak cultivation, holding a magic treasure in his hand, looking somewhat panicked.

Among this generation of the Yuan family, only Yuan Yuan Chengdun's strength was overwhelming, and he was a rare cultivator who could rival the direct descendants of the Immortal Sect. Unfortunately, he fell in the East Sea. Among the many remaining descendants, only Yuan Yuan Chengzhao had a chance to break through.

Originally, he could be said to be the pillar, but Yuan Tuan fell in the East Sea again. Although the Yuan family's body was maintained, these two major combat powers fell, and there was really no Foundation Establishment cultivator who could be taken out.

Although he obtained support from the Chi family, the pressure was also very great. Yuan Yuan Chengzhao, who stayed in the sect, was even more embarrassed, sitting blankly on the peak, not knowing how to see people.

Now seeing his senior brother Li Li Xizhi, he had nothing to say, feeling at a loss: "Senior Brother... I really don't know about the clan affairs!"

"These naturally don't blame you."

Li Li Xizhi frowned slightly, keenly noticing that the clothes on Yuan Yuan Chengzhao's body were thin. Although they were all white, the quality was slightly higher, not like the clothes of ordinary disciples in the sect.

He smiled and said warmly:

"So, there are new clothes to wear."

Yuan Yuan Chengzhao only then reacted, speechless for a moment, and said in a low voice: "I... this... Senior Brother! Follow me up the mountain!"

Li Li Xizhi's smile gradually restrained, followed him silently, walked all the way to the attic on the top of the mountain, and saw the lights were dim, and a piece of clothing was draped on the case, somewhat messy.

Li Li Xizhi was familiar with this small room, and at a glance, he found that the green blade that had been hanging on the wall had been taken down and didn't know where it had gone.

Yuan Yuan Chengzhao was sweating on his forehead, leading him inside, knelt down with a thud, and hung his head without saying a word.

Li Li Xizhi seemed to have expected it, his expression was calm, and his gaze looked at the robe draped on the case.

This robe presented a light green color, integrated, emitting a faint colored light, and the silver pendant at the waist hung awkwardly on the corner of the clothes, placed somewhat messily.

Li Li Xizhi naturally understood what this clothing was—the Peak Master's attire.

Looking at the inner lining on Yuan Yuan Chengzhao's body, it was flowing white, clearly a set with the clothing on the case, but he returned abruptly, and Yuan Yuan Chengzhao could only hurriedly take off this clothing and rush to see him, but forgot about the inner robe.

"Eldest Senior Brother..."

The two reflected each other, and everything was already clear. Yuan Yuan Chengzhao's head was very low, sweating profusely, but Li Li Xizhi did not seem to be angry. His voice was slightly cold, and he asked:

"Where is the sword?"

It seemed that compared to this Peak Master position, the precious sword that had been hanging on the wall and used by Li Li Chijing made him even more concerned.

Yuan Tuan's whereabouts were uncertain. Yuan Yuan Chengzhao had been under the management of his eldest senior brother Li Li Xizhi for many years, and Yuan Yuan Chengzhao had awe for this senior brother. At this moment, he was incoherent, his eyes were red, and he said tremblingly: "Eldest Senior Brother! The Chi family is coming... I was afraid they would recognize that sword of Master's... so I hid it in advance!"

He hurriedly took out the sword from his storage bag and offered it with both hands. Back then, Li Li Chijing had not yet cast a spiritual sword, so he used this sword to practice the 【Profound Water Sword Art】. The sword body was simple, without any extra patterns.

Li Li Xizhi took it with both hands, took a jade box from his storage bag, and carefully put it away, then said softly: "Did the Chi family point you out?"

Yuan Yuan Chengzhao nodded repeatedly, biting the bullet and saying: "Yes... yes! They threatened with the family, saying that I must sit in this Peak Master position..."

"Hmm."

Li Li Xizhi's expression didn't seem to have any big changes, nodded lightly, helped him up with one hand, and lifted the green robe on the case with the other, smiling:

"You, your cultivation is still lacking. Break through to Foundation Establishment early, so you can hold the scene."

Yuan Yuan Chengzhao was sweating profusely, dripping down one by one, muttering:

"Eldest Senior Brother! This was originally yours... I know Master also thought so... it was always yours, I... I... unable to refuse..."

"What is mine or yours!"

Li Li Xizhi laughed, patted him on the shoulder, and said warmly:

"I have completed the task and returned, and still need to report to the main hall. Peak Master Yuan, wait here. When I finish my report, you and I will have a good drink."

Yuan Yuan Chengzhao was at a loss, nodded, and until Li Li Xizhi flew out driving the rosy light, he hurriedly took off the outer robe on his body, threw it back on the case, as if in a dream:

"Senior Brother is not angry with me... that's great..."

He sat blankly for a while, looking at the silver pendant representing the Peak Master position on the case, his hands and feet were hot, and he couldn't help but touch it twice.

Li Li Xizhi drove the wind out, stepped on the rosy light facing the moonlight, his expression gentle, his gaze slightly cold, one hand behind his back, his demeanor upright: 'Manipulating me? Is this still Chi Chi Zhiyan's negligence? I'm afraid not!'

'Good calculation... Yuan Chengzhao is a person without schemes, and greedy for vanity, so naturally he fell into it without any room. Qingsui is still the Yuan family's... in the end, it can still knock me with a stick...'

He was elegant and gentle, with a look of indignation on his face, but there was no anger in his heart, only laughing coldly:

He was elegant and gentle, with a perfectly appropriate look of indignation on his face, yet there was no anger in his heart, only a cold smile:

At this moment, the gentle and elegant appearance Li Li Xizhi had cultivated since he was young was still full of style, but his heart had already calculated it to death. He was Li Li Yuanyuan's son after all, gentle on the surface, but had already seen through it coldly underneath: 'In such a stretched situation, it's nothing more than a big stick and a sweet date. Let's see what kind of play the several adults are putting on!' ===== CHAPTER 523 =====

At this moment, the gentle and graceful demeanor that Li Li Xizhi had cultivated in his youth was still full of charm, but his heart was calculated to the death. He was, after all, the son of Li Li Yuanjiao; gentle on the surface, he had already seen through everything coldly underneath: "At such a time of being stretched thin, it is nothing more than using a big stick in one hand and a sweet date in the other. I'd like to see what kind of act these lords are putting on!"
