Chapter 751: Asking Before and After (12)

There were fewer people in the main mountain of Funan. The young man in silver armor and black robes stood on the top of the mountain, wearing six ancient silver-white tokens at his waist. The long spear stood on the ground, occasionally flashing with points of thunder light.

A woman in red palace attire soon came up from below, holding a hexagonal lamp, the down-like flames jumping. This young man raised his head somewhat exhausted, put down the thin paper in his hand, and said:

"Eldest Sister is here... is it Senior Situ Mo who came? What did Weijian say on that side?"

"Not so."

Li Minggong shook her head. Her expression was more worried, and she said softly:

"There is no need to worry about Weijian. It was truly a top-notch wise move for the family to take him in. Now he is also a person who can stand on his own. He is loyal and unswerving. With him watching, you and I sit in the rear, and Senior Situ Mo will not move easily."

"I came this time because I got some news from the family..."

She sent the letter to Li Cheng. This young man looked at it calmly and was somewhat surprised, replying: "Fu Jie was killed..."

The two looked at each other. Li Minggong locked the palace gate and said in a low voice: "Regardless of whether it is a means for any Young Master to weaken Xuan Yue's prestige and favor, this matter is harmless. The important thing is the matter of Chijiao Island. Guo Hongjian appeared. This is a big matter."

Li Cheng read the letter twice and replied: "Jiangqian is ruthless and decisive, and his actions are quite poisonous. He is prepared to use Xuan Yue as a sacrifice. Jiangxia, although somewhat arrogant, likes the path of openness and honesty and has pity for the people. Now this arrangement is just right. There is no need to adjust."

"Chijiao Island... let Guo Hongjian go. This guy looks like he is not very smart, but actually, he relies entirely on Ye Huai's instructions. We only have the share of waiting."

Li Cheng pondered for a moment and said in confusion:

"But Duxian Dao is too polite to our family... Since breaking the mountain gate, it seems they are not very keen on the hatred of Xuan Yue and Kong Haiying. Otherwise, how could there be no reaction until today?"

Li Minggong was about to answer, but heard a sudden silence outside the palace. The mountain-protecting array shook slightly, and the tightly closed palace gate seemed to be driven by some force, shaking violently.

"Creak..."

This palace gate opened naturally from the inside out. The cool wind outside the palace rushed toward them instantly. Li Cheng only felt that this wind was bone-chilling. He stood up from the main seat instantly, and his heart sank: 'Zifu!'

The array on the mountain was no different from nothing to a Zifu. This Zifu deliberately pushed the door when entering the palace. It looked like he was already quite friendly. No matter who came, the two of them had no qualifications to stand at this moment. They stepped aside and bowed to welcome. Li Minggong said respectfully:

"I don't know which True Person's immortal carriage this is. The Li family juniors are here to welcome..."

A simple brown cloth garment indeed appeared in front of them, but it vaguely revealed mysterious divine light. Neither of them dared to raise their heads. Li Minggong said respectfully:

"Greetings, True Person."

This True Person spoke quite kindly, dragging his tone, carrying a heavy thickness:

"No need for courtesy! I am the Master of Xuanmiao Temple, Su Mian. I searched the sea for several circles, but the True Person's figure was long in coming, so I came here to ask you two."

The two hurriedly led him to sit in the main seat, stood respectfully on the side, and only then did they see the true face of this True Person. Su Mian was dressed as a layman, middle-aged, and his old age was not obvious, but his voice was very heavy: "Now the wind is blowing everywhere, and going to the lake is quite inconvenient. Seeing that you two are also in this place, I turned over to ask... Has Zhaojing fellow Daoist returned?"

Li Minggong hesitated instantly, but the True Person was in front of her, and she couldn't look at her brother. She only hesitated for such a small segment, and Su Mian sighed and said: "No need to hide. The sea is in chaos, and I have also heard the news. He was driven away by Chang Xiao. I am asking about his whereabouts. As long as there is a little news, we don't have to be terrified."

Li Cheng and his older sister could not talk to each other. They only heard Li Minggong say worriedly: "Reporting to True Person, we haven't returned to the lake for several days, but from beginning to end, we have never received news of the Master returning to the lake... I don't know how he is now."

Su Mian looked at Li Minggong, seemingly identifying something, and after a long while, he doubted:

"And where is Li Zhouwei! It's in such a mess, yet he still doesn't come out to stabilize the situation. Does he have to wait for Duxian Dao to attack? Without him coming out to guard, relying on you two or three, how can you withstand the calculation!"

After Su Mian finished asking this, Li Minggong was slightly embarrassed and had to say: "The family head has gone into seclusion..."

Su Mian flicked his sleeves, appearing somewhat impatient, and only said:

"When is it not good to go into seclusion, but he chose this time! There is no place for spiritual energy to gather on your lake. It is hard to say that it will take longer!"

Li Minggong paused and hesitated:

"Yes... the time for Foundation Establishment breakthrough is long or short, and the juniors cannot calculate it accurately... Our direct descendants..."

"Enough!"

Su Mian didn't wait for her to finish, waved his sleeves and interrupted her, only saying: "You two guard Funan well. There is no need to worry about the wilderness. I will go talk to Ye Huai first and ask about the details."

The two hurriedly thanked him. After bowing and getting up, the True Person in front of them had already disappeared. Li Cheng was somewhat uneasy. He hesitated twice, but the question he wanted to ask was still not asked.

Li Minggong's worry grew heavier. She hesitated in the palace twice and replied: "Su Mian True Person usually doesn't care about anything, but in times of crisis, he shows..."

Li Minggong stopped abruptly. Li Cheng also raised his head thoughtfully, realizing that there was a strange floral fragrance in the air. A clear breeze attacked from outside the courtyard, lingering, and actually turned into a person before the palace again.

This woman was dressed in autumn-fragrant yellow satin skirts, painted with butterfly patterns. Her face was beautiful, her brows were very thin, and there were two cyan dots at the corners of her eyes. As soon as she appeared, she waved her hand to stop the two's movements and frowned:

"Cheng... Minggong... it's you two, right?"

The two understood that the previous True Person had just left, and the next True Person had already arrived in the palace. They had to retreat to the side and said respectfully: "Greetings, True Person."

This female True Person frowned, her voice gentle and gentle:

"Get up... I am Ting Lan True Person from Purple Smoke Blessed Land... I am here to ask you two a word, no need to be so polite."

She seemed to have swept a glance at the furnishings in the palace and asked:

"Has a True Person with willow-leaf eyes and a bright lamp in his hand looked for you?"

She paused for a short moment and asked: "Forget it... has any True Person looked for you?"

Li Minggong said respectfully:

"Su Mian True Person came earlier..."

She repeated the previous things. The female True Person in front of her paced in the palace and sat in the main seat, silent.

This True Person's makeup was extremely beautiful, sitting quietly in the main seat, as exquisite as a statue. Under the morning sun, weak colorful light emitted from the back of her head, but Ting Lan's expression was not good, and her eyes were even somewhat gloomy.

The True Person in satin skirts narrowed her eyes slightly and said word by word: "I just came out of Xuanmiao Temple. Old True Person Qi is in the temple and has never moved." ===== CHAPTER 752 =====

The True Person in the satin robe narrowed his eyes slightly and said, word by word, "I just came out of the Profound Wonder Temple; the old True Person Qi is right there in the temple and has not moved at all."
