Chapter 652: Demon Kin (Part 1)

The snow in the North Sea never melted all year round, a plain color. The gale swept across the mountain peaks. The old man sat quietly on the top of the peak. The white jade fishing rod extended into the vast heavy snow, but the crystal clear line was pulled straight, extending into the endless ice sea below.

Xiao Chuting had sat here for decades, never moving at all. The wind and snow brushed past his side, not even a flake sticking to him. This old man's hands were always as steady as iron.

In the heavy snow, the sound was continuous. A figure fell with the wind, two medicine bags swaying on his body, his hair slightly white, his voice warm and thick. It was Xiao Yuansi: "Seen the True Person."

"Yuansi is here."

Xiao Chuting responded heavily, his hands steady and motionless, and said casually:

"Was that elixir sent to the Li family?"

Xiao Yuansi had always understood that every move and every thought of his could not be hidden from this old ancestor. He bowed and said respectfully:

"Back to the True Person, the junior has already sent it. The junior thought of the teacher-student relationship, but did not report to the True Person first, so please forgive me."

"Good."

Xiao Chuting did not have much fluctuation in his expression and said warmly:

"You have always felt that I am heartless, but you didn't do this thing beautifully. Sometimes heartlessness is the way to save people. You don't see as clearly as Tu Longjian."

"Junior..."

Xiao Yuansi wanted to speak but stopped. Xiao Chuting did not give him much chance to speak and said softly:

"The Li family has Zifu cultivation methods. I knew this very early. The Donghuo Grotto-heaven fell, and the sect secret notes of the Dongli Sect flowed into the hands of the three sects and seven gates. The secrets were seen clearly. This sect inherited Wei Li. Although there are not many truly precious things in the grotto-heaven, the details are enough to be fatal."

"When Li Ximing built the foundation, the celestial phenomena were different. Si Boxiu went there and compared it with the Dongli secret notes, judging the grade, and even recognized which Zifu cultivation method it was!"

Xiao Yuansi was silent. The old man said softly: "It is the fourth-grade 【Golden Palace Jinyang Huangyuan Formula】, which has a secret method. The spiritual energy required is 【Golden Yang Jinyang Huangyuan】. The Li family holds that ancient city wall across Xiping Mountain and does not let go, just to collect energy."

"Si Boxiu naturally doesn't care if the Li family's cultivation method is complete. It is a good thing for the Li family to have Zifu, and it is not bad without Zifu... These are not big problems. Zifu cultivation methods are there if they are there. How many wild paths can succeed? If they succeed, they are at most Changxi. The problem is Li Zhouwei..."

Xiao Chuting sighed and replied:

"He is a Zifu seed, and this is not just talking... His natural bloodline is unusual, more than Chi Buzi. He is not Changxi! Do you know how many people are staring at him!"

"And that 【Mingfang Heavenly Stone】, not many people in Jiangnan hope to use it on Li Zhouwei. Although they won't take special action, everyone can't bear to see good things."

The old man said softly: "Tu Longjian is not old and spicy enough after all. How can he calculate Tianwan? As long as he gambles with Tianwan, there will be people taking action to harm Li Xijun... Even if he gets the Mingfang Heavenly Stone, Li Xijun dies, and it is the same as not getting it! That's why Tianwan dared to let those two loose cultivators take action. She knew that someone would secretly help..."

Xiao Yuansi sighed deeply and replied:

"Junior doesn't understand."

Xiao Chuting said:

"You will know now. Many Zifu cultivators are afraid that Li Ximing won't break through... A Li Ximing breaking through is not a big deal. Eight or nine out of ten will die. He doesn't understand the danger at all. He only looks at the three sects and seven gates often being able to break through... thinking that if there is a probability, there is a probability."

"I deliberately set up a few things to annoy you, just to make you slow down. Wait for Li Ximing to go into seclusion and send it to Li Zhouwei, but you risked your own injury... and rushed to arrive in time..."

The old man looked at him deeply and sighed:

"Forget it, fulfill the teacher-student relationship between you two!"

Xiao Yuansi paused for a full quarter of an hour without responding.

"You step back..."

Xiao Yuansi stepped back in a daze. Xiao Chuting still raised the fishing rod. After Xiao Yuansi stepped back, the wind and snow in the air stopped slightly, and the disappointment on his face disappeared instantly.

'Yuansi is warm and kind, and he is my direct line. What other doubts can the Zifu cultivators have? Just go and test Li Zhouwei.'

He lifted his long pole lightly, as if it were carrying a thousand pounds of weight, causing the entire snow peak to shake slightly. In an instant, the mountain snow rolled down, gradually forming an avalanche, rumbling and echoing, and a little light slowly rose from the ice sea under his feet.

Dali Mountain.

Dali Mountain was covered with white snow, and the fields were covered with silver trees under the moonlight. Li Zhouwei looked into the distance, the mountains were undulating, and several black smokes rose in the heavy snow. The little demons patrolling the mountain were stomping their feet around the little bright campfire, laughing and playing.

Dali Mountain was located in the northernmost part of Jiangnan, with snow all year round, but the snow period was not long, so it was all appreciated as a beautiful scenery. White Ape looked into the distance and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness... Dali Mountain has not eaten people for a hundred years. The demons are stupid and gradually don't know the taste of people."

"This is the merit of the predecessors."

Li Zhouwei nodded, fell on the snow peak all the way, the falling snow rustled. A group of demons were sitting around the fire pond in front of the deer demon's cave.

Seeing him fall, the demons were startled, but they didn't avoid it. A big-eared deer-faced demon greeted him, only at the fourth level of Fetal Breathing, but he could speak human language, smiling:

"That person! Are you here to pick medicine, let's roast the fire together..."

His accent was quite strange, and before he finished speaking, the tiger demon head beside him was scared out of his wits, pulling him to kneel down, pulling and mourning: "Little demon has seen the two adults!"

This tiger demon was a Qi Refining head, and had already given birth to spiritual consciousness. He recognized that the two were Foundation Establishment cultivation, and White Ape scared half of his life away with one look. He crawled on the ground, and the old ape said in a hoarse voice: "Go and report, the Li clan has come to visit the cave master."

Li Zhouwei didn't take it to heart. After waiting in front of the cave for a while, the deer demon's words had already entered his ears, only saying:

"It has been a hundred years, my family's entry and exit of Dali Mountain... often exchanged spiritual objects with spiritual rice, extracted spiritual energy, and the demons here have not eaten people for a long time, innocent and simple. My family's cultivators have requests, and they are quite flattering, so they are harmonious like this."

"Great King is right!"

As soon as his voice fell, a roar came from the cave, spiritual wind blew, and a middle-aged man rolled out wearing a robe, with black hair and brown eyes, long hair scattered, carrying a large shield on his back, and said loudly:

"Little demon has seen the Great King!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he bowed to worship. Li Zhouwei frowned and helped him up. Lu Ken and his family's elders were called Daoist friends. This worship was a mess of generations, surprised: "What is the senior doing..."

Lu Ken stood up and smiled: "These are separate matters. We have seen Bai Lin, so we must fulfill the etiquette first, so we worshipped first."

Although he was full of smiles, the awe was not reduced at all. Obviously, he was in the same mind as Dragon Son Brother Ding Jiao, and he regarded him as Bai Lin.

This deer demon didn't say much, and invited him into the cave. It was extremely wide, the stone walls were as white as sheep fat, the texture was clear, and a group of little demons worshipped on the side. On the ground were animal skin mats, mostly wolves and tigers.

'Deer demon as cave master... North foot tigers and wolves are about to go extinct...'

After sitting down on the top, Lu Ken's brown eyes looked at White Ape, and he hurriedly apologized:

"I have been visiting friends in the Helin Mountain Range for the past few years... and went to the South Frontier together. It took a few years to go back and forth, and now I have returned to the mountain, which is really delayed."

Li Zhouwei didn't believe his ghost words, responded casually, and soon turned to his intention, whispering:

"My family has received many letters in the past few days. I think the senior has also seen them. I hope to see Senior Bai Rong. Does the senior have news about the demon cave? Please contact one or two for me."

"Already arranged!"

Lu Ken laughed, stood up with his fists, and whispered:

"Daoist rest assured, I reported to the demon cave as soon as I returned to the cave, and I have already received the news. I am just waiting for you to come, and I will invite him."

He whispered:

"My master has won the favor of the great demon over the years, and his status in the cave is getting higher and higher. Moreover, he has accumulated a lot of hair, and after building the foundation, his talent has been revealed, and he has subdued many demon generals. He is already an adult!"

Bai Rong's status improved, and Lu Ken followed behind him for these years, obviously getting many benefits, showing thick pride and joy, greeting the demons, setting up a banquet, and sending demons to the demon cave to invite Bai Rong.

White Ape looked carefully. Although it was a group of deer demons, they set up wine and meat on the table, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Cave Master, this banquet is quite full, a lot of meat."

Lu Ken didn't recognize White Ape, but quickly judged that this old ape's age was estimated to be very old, and asked first:

"How old is the Daoist?"

"Four hundred and sixty..."

White Ape responded like this, Lu Ken was really surprised. He praised and replied:

"Good to let the Daoist know, although we are deer demons, eating meat is better than eating vegetarian... Even ordinary deer... have the habit of eating birds and snakes..."

"It's all nature, and what's more..."

Lu Ken couldn't say 'most demons also eat people', but Li Zhouwei had already heard the implication, silently carrying his hands, Lu Ken regarded him as a demon, otherwise this sentence would not have been held back until it reached his mouth.

"Bai Rong!"

White Ape and Lu Ken were chatting happily, and a high shout came from outside the cave. A purple fire stepped into the air, fixed in the cave, showing a young man wearing a blue-green long-sleeved large-lapel, with wide cuffs, a string of silver bright silver beads hanging on his neck and shoulders, his eyebrows slightly narrow, shouting: "I'm here!"

Lu Ken was busy worshipping. The young man stepped forward quickly, his smile faded, recognized Li Zhouwei, and had a look of confusion, asking: "Are you that Bai Lin... Yes, I heard Li Xijun also died..."

"Li Xijun is my uncle."

"Oh!"

Li Zhouwei responded like this, Bai Rong sorted out the generations, and replied: "Harm... I just went into seclusion, and decades passed in a flash... although the human lifespan is short, I think the natural lifespan is not as harmful as human disaster."

"Your family is indeed a descendant of Bright Yang. My cave master also talked about you, saying that you are just a Bai Lin. Now that I see it, it is really good."

Bai Rong was familiar with it quickly, let go, first looked at the deer demons who were looking up with eyes, and said angrily:

"You have really learned bad things from that group of people. I have to set up such a scene when I come here. They are all anxious to move their chopsticks. Hurry up and drive them out to eat by themselves."

Lu Ken responded respectfully, understood his meaning, and was busy retreating, calling and kicking the little demons out, closing the stone door intimately, and guarding outside the door.

Bai Rong saw him retreat, the stone door slammed shut, and the entire large formation began to operate. Only then did he laugh:

"You Li family, I really don't know many people. I still remember a little old man... who was a nephew of Tongya. I went to the lake last time and could only chat with him. Is he still there? If not, I am even lazier to go."

"The adult is still healthy."

Li Zhouwei knew he was talking about Li Xuanxuan. Li Tongya had passed away for so many years, and the friendship between the two families was indeed shallow, but Bai Rong still remembered it, which was already quite rare.

Bai Rong did not delay, asked the intention, Li Zhouwei whispered:

"The junior is practicing in the East Sea, and was entrusted by Dragon Son Brother Ding Jiao to come and seek the senior, to seek the matter of listening to the abyss for the dragon kin."

Bai Rong laughed and replied:

"I know... this matter let you convey it, the dragon kin really spent some thought."

He said sternly:

"She didn't tell you much, but I can guess it. It's nothing more than going to the South Sea."

"My fox clan is not allowed to enter the sea according to reason. Since the dragon son said so... this matter is not difficult, it doesn't matter to take a trip for my family's adult."

Li Zhouwei put his heart down. He didn't covet the spiritual weapon in Brother Ding Jiao's hand, and didn't even mean to accept that thing, but it was more important to make friends with the dragon kin.

Li Zhouwei was thinking about it, but Bai Rong laughed and replied:

"That's settled. Bai Lin, go to the South Sea with me."

"Hmm?"

The matter between the dragon kin and the fox clan, Li Zhouwei had always been the one to convey it, so he had always been in a very polite posture, never biased towards either side, but this matter was winding and winding, and it was hung on himself...

"The junior's cultivation is shallow, and I don't know these ancient things. I'm afraid that following along will delay the senior's affairs."

Li Zhouwei raised his eyebrows, but saw Bai Rong looking at him with a smile. This young man had a fox spirit after transformation, and his voice was slightly thin:

"Bai Lin, Brother Ding Jiao not only listens to the abyss, but also wants to make friends with you and me. If you don't go... this matter will fall through."

"Besides."

He sighed, his expression became solemn, and he said slowly:

"Li Qinghong is gone, you won't be stable on the lake. Following me and him is easier... At least no one will have any thoughts when you are with me and him." ===== CHAPTER 653 =====

"Besides."

He sighed, his expression turning solemn, and said in a slow, measured tone: "Once Li Qinghong leaves, you won't be able to find any stability on the lake either. It would be much easier for you to follow me and Brother Ding Jiao... With him and me, at least no one will dare to harbor any schemes."
