Chapter 551

~16 min read 3,040 words

Yu Yu Yuwei went to worry about his own affairs. Li Li Xizhi was not proficient in refining, so he couldn't help much. Following the passing of Tang Tang Shecheng, Yu Yu Xiuxian, and finally the death of Yu Yu Muxian, the refining path of the Mount Qingchi Sect had already declined, and no good refiners could be found.

This old man was miserable, carrying the purple-red tripod, looked at Li Li Xizhi, and only said:

"Brother Zhi... that fallen cave heaven is called the Dongning Palace. Several Early Zifu cultivators have let people in... It is estimated that the Chijiao, Xiukui... and several other sects that were originally unable to spare their hands will soon arrive."

Li Li Xizhi nodded, assuming a posture of listening carefully, seeing Yu Yu Yuwei murmuring:

"By now, the old man is gradually unable to see clearly. Chijiao and Xiukui are constantly fighting overseas, and cultivators die every month. The Early Zifu cultivators have returned to the north, intending to participate in the Mount Bianyan Mountain matter..."

"Hard to fathom... hard to fathom!"

This old man sighed for a while, looking a bit lost, and sat on the side. Li Li Quantao looked at the two of them and said in a low voice:

"Dongning Palace... was once one of the cave dwellings of the Ning State cultivators. The Ning State was the hometown of the cave-dwelling True Person Li Li Jiangqun, and the Jiajiang Li clan of the Ning State were descendants of Golden Core immortals. How many legacies were left behind? Plus the Wanling Sect and the Ning King, it is definitely tempting."

Yu Yu Yuwei thought more, but the friendship was too shallow, and he was unwilling to say more to Li Li Quantao, nodding faintly, and said in a low voice:

"Yesterday I received news that my nephew Yu Yu Fuyu died. No one in the family is willing to collect the body, so I have to make a trip."

The Yu family was fighting like enemies inside. Yu Yu Yuwei mentioned his nephew's death without any expression, only drooping his eyelids, exchanged a few pleasantries, put the tripod into his sleeves, and left driving the wind.

This old man left the courtyard, and Li Li Quantao stepped forward, saying in a low voice:

"Brother Zhi... the Yu family members are mostly selfish and cruel. Although Yu Yu Yuwei is a bit older, it's hard to guarantee..."

Seeing Li Li Xizhi looking over, Li Li Quantao's expression was very serious, only saying:

"Brother Zhi, do you still remember the Lord Murong Xia matter? Your clan should have records... The Yu family did not cover it up at all, openly and grandiosely collecting people everywhere, driving them with magic power, building several Jingguan, and building a main hall for Lord Murong Xia to eat people day and night."

"Although every family has been harmed by Lord Murong Xia, and they understand the Yu family's helplessness... but to be so happy and smiling, not bothering to cover it up, and even bowing to Lord Murong Xia from beginning to end..."

Li Li Quantao shook his head and said in a low voice:

"It is truly shameful!"

Li Li Xizhi also understood this matter, nodded slightly, and Li Li Quantao continued:

"Moreover... the death of Yu Yu Yuxie is also inseparable from Yu Yu Yuwei. It is rumored that it was a clan struggle deliberately harmed. Such a person, who can even harm his own brother, how can he be trusted?"

'Yu Yu Yuxie was clearly used as an elixir by Chi Wei to cultivate...'

Li Li Xizhi restrained his expression, but couldn't say it out loud, only replying:

"Thank you for the reminder, brother."

The two were discussing when someone stepped forward from below, bowing his body, offering a green token with both hands, and said respectfully:

"Two lords, the Immortal Order of the Upper Sect."

The Mount Qingchi Sect had many ways of transmitting orders. If a Foundation Establishment cultivator came with an order, it would be much more solemn. Now, a simple token was sent, and not even a person was sent, showing dissatisfaction.

Li Li Xizhi stood up, smoothed his sleeves, took it according to the prescribed gestures, poured magic power into it, released green light, and only threw out a concise sentence:

"Li Li Xizhi of Changtian Peak shall re-station at Bai Xiang Valley within three days and obey the dispatch."

Yanshan Pass.

The fog at Yanshan Pass was hazy. The black-clothed cultivator landed driving the wind. A group of cultivators below hurriedly asked about his well-being. Li Li Wushao always had a dark face and didn't say much, burying his head and driving the wind.

Just as he landed, he saw a burly refiner in red clothes, with a pile of clanking iron tools tied to his body, looking out on the city wall. It was Chu Chu Minglian.

Chu Chu Minglian had been refining tools in the city for most of this period. He had origins with the Li family, and his personality was cheerful and generous, so he had already become very familiar with them.

Seeing Li Li Wushao, Chu Chu Minglian looked over with interest and asked:

"Fellow Daoist Li Wushao... why haven't you been running to Linggu Linggu Lanying's place recently? How come you came back so quickly today..."

The Linggu Linggu Lanying of the Linggu family was stationed not far from Yanshan Pass. This female cultivator's mount was a white hook snake. Li Li Wushao said that he hadn't seen his own kind for many years and went to visit, so he often ran to that place.

Everyone knew it in their hearts, but they didn't tease him. They were secretly itching and constantly inquiring about gossip, but Li Li Wushao's mouth was very tight, and nothing could be seen, which made people even more curious.

Li Li Wushao had a dark face and only replied:

"I have seen the Master... It's just that the demonic cultivators have been rampant recently, and I'm afraid of delaying the order, so it's not good to leave the formation."

After saying this, Li Li Wushao had already driven the wind away. Chu Chu Minglian was a bit confused. He strolled around the pass for a week, but a woman flew to the front of the formation.

This woman had a beautiful face, a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, and was wearing a light green Daoist robe. Her Dharma light was brilliant, and she didn't look like an ordinary product at all. Her black hair was like a waterfall behind her, and she was wearing a few hairpins, which was very beautiful.

This woman bowed and said warmly:

"I am Linggu Linggu Lanying of the Jia Shi Chuan Linggu family... I intend to seek an audience with fellow Daoist Li Qinghong."

"So it is fellow Daoist of the Jia Shi Chuan Linggu family. I am Chu Chu Minglian."

Chu Chu Minglian was just a refiner here and did not have the magic treasure to open the formation. He waved his hand to decline, looked at Linggu Linggu Lanying twice, and politely went down.

Linggu Linggu Lanying was not in a hurry, just waiting in front of the formation. After more than ten breaths, someone finally came forward. It was a bright and generous female cultivator who said respectfully:

"Mount Qingdu Li Li Minggong, I have seen Senior."

Such a demeanor was very likable. Linggu Linggu Lanying smiled slightly, followed her into the formation, passed through several city walls, and soon saw a small mountain. The decorations on the mountain were very simple, with nothing unusual.

Entering the cave dwelling, she saw at a glance a woman in white reading a jade slip by the table. A silver spear was placed flat on the hall, with white lightning jumping out from time to time, making a fine crackling sound.

"This is that thunder cultivator Li Li Qinghong..."

"Linggu Linggu Lanying has seen fellow Daoist!"

Linggu Linggu Lanying looked at her, and Li Li Qinghong also observed her, smiled, came down from the upper seat, and said harmoniously:

"Li Wushao has been bothering you a lot recently. Sorry to trouble you, fellow Daoist!"

Hearing this, Linggu Linggu Lanying's expression was slightly awkward, and she replied with a smile:

"It's no trouble at all. My Gu'er can also have a companion."

Judging by her tone, Gu'er was the name of the white snake. Li Li Qinghong had a premonition in her heart and secretly calculated:

"What could Linggu Linggu Lanying be looking for me for? Nine times out of ten, it's about Li Li Wushao and that Gu'er..."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Linggu Linggu Lanying really said:

"In recent years, your clan's Li Wushao and my Gu'er have become close... I have seen him many times. Not only is he quick-witted, but his strength can also be considered quite good. My Gu'er is young after all, and after coming and going, she has learned a lot and benefited a lot."

Li Li Qinghong smiled and nodded, saying softly:

"Does fellow Daoist mean...?"

Linggu Linggu Lanying smiled awkwardly, softening her tone:

"If this matter can be promoted, it would naturally be the best... The two families had a relationship early on, and Linggu Lanying also admires Senior very much..."

"Gu'er has chatted with me several times. She was also very hesitant, saying that Li Wushao's strength is good, and the Li family is also a first-class big clan, and Li Li Wushao also cares for her very much, so she hesitated for a long time..."

When Li Li Qinghong heard this, she vaguely felt that something was wrong, and her expression also restrained, saying nothing in a dark tone. Linggu Linggu Lanying said in a low voice:

"But the child in the family is young, and finally made up her mind. This matter cannot be done... Her ancestors have always been from the Lu River, and she has always wanted a husband who cultivates Lu River water, but Li Wushao is Fu water..."

Linggu Linggu Lanying spoke very tactfully, but Li Li Qinghong knew quite a bit, and understood immediately:

"What Lu River Fu water! It turns out she dislikes Li Li Wushao's hook snake bloodline for being mixed!"

The hook snake is a descendant of the Lu River feather snake, so naturally, the Lu River is the most pure and noble. Li Li Qinghong had also seen that Gu'er, who was a full circle larger than an ordinary hook snake, with delicate and clean scales, noble and elegant.

And the rest of the combined water and Kan water are inferior, mainly descendants under the feather snake. Among the many hook snake clans, only Fu water is missing, so naturally, Fu water is the lowest.

Li Li Wushao had been down and out since meeting Li Li Yuanjiao, even to the point of fleeing into the Salt Lake, which had a lot to do with this bloodline.

Now that it was said like this, Li Li Qinghong's heart suddenly turned cold. Having been together for so long, the cultivators had long regarded Li Li Wushao as one of their own, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

Linggu Linggu Lanying did not deceive her and spoke tactfully. She felt bitter in her heart and went to look at Li Li Qinghong. Seeing Li Li Qinghong's expression was not good, she had to explain:

"This trip has absolutely no intention of contempt, just to tell Senior in person... I brought a compensation gift, hoping that Senior can understand."

When things reached this point, Linggu Linggu Lanying also had a headache. The hook snake Gu'er beside her was the only daughter of an old snake with prestige and strength in the clan, and Linggu Linggu Lanying also had to respect her a few points.

She had been excited for a day or two when she heard about the two snakes earlier. The Li family is now gaining power, and Linggu Linggu Lanying naturally wants to climb up to some relationship, but no matter how satisfied she is with this marriage, it is not her own business after all. How can she let Gu'er commit herself?

Linggu Linggu Lanying was at a loss in the cave dwelling at this moment. Li Li Qinghong could see the difficulty of this woman, and the anger she originally wanted to vent faded a lot. She sighed slightly and replied:

"It was originally a matter of mutual consent between the two, so why is there any need for a compensation gift? Fellow Daoist, take it back."

Having provoked such a mess for no reason, Li Li Qinghong was in no mood to deal with her. The Linggu family is also one of the top big clans, and she gave enough face, so she really couldn't say anything more.

Li Li Qinghong dealt with it twice. Seeing that Li Li Qinghong's expression was not good, Linggu Linggu Lanying soon retreated. Li Li Qinghong was about to call Li Li Wushao forward when Li Li Minggong hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Aunt, Master Chu has already crafted that feather garment!"

This feather garment was naturally modified from the brocade robe captured from the demonic cultivator back then. It was originally an object of the Wanling Upper Sect. Chu Chu Minglian was delighted to see it and modified it for a long time, adding many good things he could find, spending a lot of effort, and now it was finally completed.

"Oh?"

Finally, there was some good news. Li Li Qinghong's eyes lit up, and she went out of the cave dwelling with her, just bumping into Li Li Wushao and Master Kongheng waiting outside.

Master Kongheng's cultivation base was becoming more and more refined, and his expression was also brightening. Li Li Wushao stood quietly on the side. Seeing many people, Li Li Qinghong found it inconvenient to talk to him in detail, and only said softly:

"Look at the feather garment first."

Yanshan Pass was also once a small sect's mountain gate, and there was a fire vein on the mountain. Everyone drove the wind and landed on the furnace. Chu Chu Minglian was on the side.

His cheerful face was full of smiles. He bowed to Li Li Qinghong, waved his sleeves, and smoothed it on the table, immediately revealing a white feather garment.

This feather garment had beautiful white feathers, atmospheric and elegant. A circle of beautiful cyan-blue long feathers surrounded the neck and shoulders, emitting blue light like a halo, falling along the white feathers. The cyan, blue, and white colors intertwined, like a beautiful piece of jade.

The phantom colors floating on this feather garment leaped, making everyone unable to move their eyes away. Chu Chu Minglian was full of pride, his gaze moving on this feather garment, looking reluctant to part with it.

"This feather garment was originally an object of the Wanling Upper Sect, and later modified by the demonic cultivators, it was already unrecognizable. I removed the flashy decorations and modified many details, so it is no longer what it was back then."

"The old man also modified many ancient designs. After all, the True Lords and the metal nature are different, and many things are no longer what they were back then."

He laughed, showing confidence:

"Moreover, 【True Lord Jade Truth Six Nine Combined Void】 attained the fruit position, and the formation and incantations of the present day have been carefully modified by me, making it more powerful than the original and better able to bolster the owner of the feather garment."

Chu Chu Minglian said solemnly:

"Although I cannot compare to Tang Tang Shecheng back then, the foundation of this feather garment is good. In its current appearance, it is already absolutely no worse than the Dharma clothes of the direct descendants of Mount Qingchi and Jin Yu!"

This feather garment was naturally not at the same level as that 【Xia You】. Just placing it on the table had a soul-stealing taste. Li Li Qinghong picked it up gently, full of joy.

"I won't mention the ability to protect the master. It can resist the casual attacks of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators. If Li Qinghong pays attention and stimulates the magic power to bolster the surface, it can go up another level."

Chu Chu Minglian explained:

"The first is 【Feather Cyan】. This feather garment itself has means left behind by the Wanling Sect back then. The group of demonic cultivators didn't know how to use it and buried it for many years. As long as you pour magic power into these thirty-two feathers, you can release green light, like a bird in the blue sky, like thunder and lightning, flying in the sky and escaping the sea, all of which have great utility."

"The second is 【Quiet Cold】. This feather garment has added cold gold, ice jade, and other things. Once Li Qinghong wears this garment, there is an immediate effect of cold ice calming the heart. Whether it is cultivation or fighting in an illusion, it has miraculous effects!"

When he said this, Li Li Qinghong was already unable to put it down, holding this feather garment in her hands. The cyan, blue, and white colors flowed in her hands, flying and scattering along her clean white wrists. Chu Chu Minglian smiled and said:

"I designed this feather garment carefully, and there is also a 【Decree Feather】, which can release all thirty-two cyan feathers on the edge of the feather garment together, each carrying flowing light, each like an arrow, which is very effective against enemies in large numbers."

"Thank you, Senior!"

Li Li Qinghong smiled softly. Chu Chu Minglian nodded, his thick face full of pride, and asked:

"This feather garment can only be considered a modification by me, but it is the best work that has come out of my hands. Has Li Qinghong thought of a name?"

Li Li Qinghong nodded slightly, looking at the flowing colors on her hands and the cyan feathers gently brushing in the wind, thought for a moment, and replied:

"Let's call it 【Sparrow Cyan Feather】!"
