Chapter 550

~8 min read 1,473 words

Checking carefully, the most serious was only losing more than ten years of lifespan. The Qingchi Sect's pills were very brilliant. When his father Li Yuanjiao was healing his injuries solely by his own mana, he would often have to be in seclusion for several years for one injury. But after he took the medicine, he saw results in a few months.

He was continuing his seclusion to heal his injuries, but who knew that someone would soon come to the door. Li Quantao sent someone to ask, and it turned out to be Yu Yuwei who came looking for him.

Li Xizhi was slightly surprised, but having just escaped from a life-and-death disaster with this person, and not knowing if there was any important news, he hurriedly came out of seclusion to see him.

Li Quantao was waiting in front of the formation. This brother was about the same age as him, and there was often a smile on his face. Li Xizhi felt grateful to this person, thanked him again, and said softly: "Quantao is also of the Li clan. In the future, you can be regarded as our own brother!"

Li Quantao's arms were very strong, quite heroic, and replied: "This is the best! Brother Zhi, don't be polite!"

The two left the cave mansion together. Li Xizhi thought for a breath and asked first: "Quan Yi of Lenghe Peak was harmed by Tuoba Zhongyuan, leaving his mother in the sect. He entrusted us to take care of her. Does Quantao know about Lenghe Peak?"

Li Quantao was surprised and praised:

"This fellow Daoist Quan is truly a purely filial person. When I return to the sect, I will..."

Li Xizhi didn't want to trouble him at all, so he hurriedly waved his hand: "It's just asking for news. I received the favor, so I must return to the sect to visit personally."

He refused very decisively on this matter, and secretly kept an eye on it in his heart:

"I must entrust someone to take a look at this Mother Quan first. People are often snobbish. I'm afraid that by the time I return to the sect in a few years, the old man will have been bullied a lot, and that would be my fault."

After talking about this, they had already arrived at the front courtyard. Yu Yuwei was tucking his sleeves and coughing in the courtyard.

This old man's face was still a bit pale, but his expression was very spirited, and his aura was even quite intact, obviously having recovered almost completely.

'Ginger is still old and spicy. He is truly an old cultivator who has been famous for a long time... It seems that this big battle did not hurt his foundation...'

Li Xizhi bowed and met him, and said:

"Senior's strength is high, and you saved my life. Xizhi is very grateful!"

"I should thank you!"

Yu Yuwei lost two apprentices, and his depression was far greater than the damage to his dharma body. When he talked about this, his brows were filled with sorrow, and he sighed: "If he hadn't gone to chase you... I might not have been able to escape alive. It is you who could withstand his pursuit all the way, that is truly powerful!"

He paused and didn't waste time on mutual modesty, saying in a low voice: "Little friend! Tuoba Zhongyuan is dead!"

Li Xizhi had heard some things in the past few months. How sharp was he? Hearing that he was killed by the dragon species, he understood immediately.

"Dongfang Eastern Heyun can be considered to have caught a fish!"

Li Xizhi had a premonition when Tuoba Zhongyuan claimed to be Liang Wudi and killed the dragon to establish the country. He was afraid that Dongfang Eastern Heyun would immediately take action and implicate himself. As a result, this guy was very smart, presumably waiting beside the long spear or the chariot.

He understood in his heart, but dared not reveal it, and just nodded in reply:

"Relieving."

Yu Yuwei laughed dully, shook his head and said: "I was still afraid that Tuoba Zhongyuan would come back for revenge. Now it's straightforward, dying once and for all. By the time he is reincarnated in a few decades, the grudge will have long since faded."

Li Xizhi could see the character of this person even though he was pursued by him, and said softly: "This person doesn't look like the type to secretly seek revenge."

Yu Yuwei looked at him with a smile for two eyes, his chin tapped lightly, and he took out a purple tripod from his sleeve, and put it in the center of the main hall with a bang. Suddenly, a heat wave rushed toward his face.

This tripod had two ears and three feet, with complex patterns, and purple flames circled the edge of the tripod. Yu Yuwei patted it with great heartache and said softly:

"That's what I think, but fellow Daoist, look."

Li Xizhi looked carefully along his hand, and saw a mark on the tripod, uneven, as if depicting four characters, flying dragons and dancing phoenixes, quite sharp.

"【Shengle Tuoba】"

Yu Yuwei shook his head helplessly and sighed:

"I used this tripod to block his natal seal at that time, and that blow was very heavy, so this mark was left on it."

"I'm afraid it comes with the magic treasure of his family. As long as it takes a solid hit, this mark will be left, and it is difficult to erase. Next time I meet someone from the Tuoba family, they will know that this person was once an enemy."

He appeared very distressed and said in a deep voice:

"I tried various methods, but I couldn't erase this mark... It's just that the tripod is an object passed down by my ancestors, which is especially important. I have spent most of my cultivation on it for so many years, how can I abandon it."

Li Xizhi was much more relaxed. For one thing, he didn't face this seal directly, and mostly suffered injuries under Tuoba Zhongyuan's spells. For another, he didn't have any decent magic treasures at all. The sword in his hand was still at the Qi Refining level, so there was no need to worry.

Li Xizhi nodded in cooperation, stared carefully at the handwriting for two eyes, and that sense of familiarity surged into his heart again, secretly saying:

"It's truly strange... I had a sense of familiarity when I first saw this handwriting..."

Seeing him frowning and puzzled, Yu Yuwei asked a few questions, and Li Xizhi replied:

"I just feel that his mark is familiar..."

"Oh?"

Yu Yuwei stroked his beard and asked:

"It seems your noble family has records of that imperial seal?"

"I would like to hear the details."

Li Xizhi added a sentence. Yu Yuwei seemed very patient with him, put his own affairs aside first, and smiled:

"That is a magic treasure! It is also the only remaining magic treasure of Shengle Heaven after offering two pearls to get the protection of the True Lord... Everyone in the Tuoba family likes to carve seals, and I heard they are all based on the imperial seal."

Li Xizhi frowned and looked, finally recalling this sense of familiarity, and was somewhat stunned.

When he returned home to see his father back then, he took a look at the title 【Wei Kingdom Li Qianyuan】 on the 【Mysterious Pattern Bottle】. The handwriting was also flying dragons and dancing phoenixes, very sharp, and at least 70% similar to the mark left on the tripod!

He was silent for a breath and asked:

"Does fellow Daoist know the origin of this imperial seal?"

"That is a magic treasure!"

Yu Yuwei smiled, seeing his solemn expression, recalled carefully for a while, and hesitated: "I have heard some fragmented gossip... saying that this seal was not created by Tuoba Xuantan himself, but was a seal of a vassal state carved when the Tuoba tribe settled in Dai County very early..."

He said this while feeling that it was not very reliable, and just smiled:

"Who knows? There are also rumors that Tuoba Xuantan was at odds with Luoxia Mountain, and it was actually harmed by that person in Luoxia... There are also rumors that the rise of the Tuoba family was just a game against the dragon species..."

He sighed and shook his head, replying: "The rumors of the near-ancient times are a hundred times more than the official history. Although my family has a long history second only to the Yuan family, the records of that time are also very blurred..."

Yu Yuwei's smile was somewhat ironic, and he replied:

"Guessing back and forth, Tuoba Xuantan is dead anyway, there is nothing to guess."
