~15 min read 2,974 words

Li Ximing then remembered Xia Shouyu in front of him. This woman had long been scared until her legs were soft. Looking at the pitch-black pupils, he was afraid that if he waited for a while, he would scare this woman to death, and he would have no place to look for a way out, so he cracked a mouth on that white face and opened his mouth: "Little friend... you finally came."

'This is breaking into which old monster's cave! It's over, it's over! This monster look, mostly wants to seize my body to act!'

After all, Xia Shouyu herself knew that she had nothing worth coveting on her body, the only thing that might be targeted by high cultivators was this body... She was not afraid of chastity or not... what she was afraid of was others seizing the body to reincarnate! Xia Shouyu kicked twice on the ground, her legs were soft, and she couldn't stand up. Fortunately, this woman could have such a status in the market, and her mind was naturally there. She opened her mouth tremblingly:

"Big... adult... little woman is just a loose cultivator in the East Sea, with no meat on her body, and the orthodoxy she practices is not a good one... I offended the adult's treasure land unintentionally. If the adult has any affairs! Just give orders... if you want blood food... please let the little woman go out to find it for you."

Li Ximing laughed and replied:

"Where is it an unintentional offense?"

Xia Shouyu saw that he was clear-headed, and for a while, he didn't say he wanted to eat her, so her heart was slightly comforted, but she was still terrified, indescribable, and shivering: "It is... it is the little person who was blinded by greed, offended the treasure land..."

Li Ximing let her go casually, and this woman knelt down with a thud. He corrected:

"You were fished over by my divine ability."

'Divine ability? Zifu?!'

Xia Shouyu only felt a chill seep into the bottom of her heart, staring at the ground in disbelief, and Li Ximing was wearing a blank face and said nothing. She didn't dare to use spiritual sense to probe the other party, only kneeling fearfully.

"Don't believe it?"

Li Ximing deliberated that the other party would not believe it, so he raised his hand and waved it out of thin air. Xia Shouyu only felt a heat in her limbs, all of them were burned clean by fire, "thud," and suddenly fell to the ground like a wooden stick.

"Ah?"

Xia Shouyu had no limbs, lying on the ground like a human stick, looking at the top of the cave with dull eyes, and the human face without a face appeared on the top again, blew a breath, grinned and said:

"Grow!"

Xia Shouyu only felt the numbness and itching of her limbs, and the scorched wounds were like old trees sprouting, "swoosh," all the hands and feet grew out, and the warm touch on the ground came again.

She supported her body, felt the world spinning, the newly grown limbs were more tender, and it was still a bit strange to use them. She just knelt on the ground with a thud, shouting: "True Person! I believe it... I believe it, the little person believes it! But please give orders!"

Li Ximing laughed: "That's right! Your body is like grass to me. This True Person doesn't covet your mortal body. The things you are ordered to do now are the most important. If you do it well, I will guarantee you will benefit infinitely!"

Xia Shouyu couldn't guess what the other party wanted to do, only topped the ground with her head, waiting for orders, and saw Li Ximing say:

"This True Person wants to suppress something here and cannot get away. I have been hungry for a long time, and I don't have any nourishing things on hand. I need a monster with Pin Water Foundation Establishment. It just so happens that you broke in. You bring a Pin Water monster, and I will count it as your merit."

"Me?"

Xia Shouyu was stunned. This woman really didn't respond to get away the first time, but lowered her head and shrugged her brain, replying: "Reporting to the True Person... the little person is alone, and the cultivation is shallow... how can I catch a monster for the True Person!"

Li Ximing saw her appearance, knowing that the previous move had been trusted, and this woman also had awe, so he followed his demon Zifu tone and said: "Stupid! Don't care what excuse you use, whether this place has treasures or spiritual objects, as long as you lure it to this place, it won't be able to escape even if it has nine lives!"

"Little person understands!"

Xia Shouyu was shocked for a moment, shivered for a while, and said carefully: "Reporting to the True Person... the little one knows the territory of several monster generals... the 'Pin Water' in your mouth... should be one of the Water Virtues, but the little one has never seen it... it is difficult to determine."

'......'

Li Ximing then remembered that with the poverty of the ends of the earth, the cultivation and knowledge of these cultivators didn't know where they fell, so he had to say:

"The valley is dirty and low, so it is Pin. Pin Water is valley water. It lies in being hidden and not released. In the sky, rain and clouds are valleys, which are cloud water. In people, the belly is hidden like a valley, which is amniotic fluid, that is, all kinds of nourishing water that has not been released."

'What is this... I am a Qi-refining, how can I understand the Zifu Dao discussion.'

Xia Shouyu shouted: "Little person doesn't understand..."

Li Ximing's face turned black, and he scolded:

"Then go find the demon general who is best at healing!"

"Okay!"

Xia Shouyu understood this time, nodded repeatedly, and was about to get up. Li Ximing said: "Wait!"

He stretched out his hand, tapped lightly on the white forehead of this woman, and the divine ability power poured down, pouring into her Juque Court, which was the only place she couldn't see, turning into a purple fire and pouring into it, saying: "But I can't let you go easily. I planted a divine ability in your body. If you run away in a hurry, you will be blown up by this divine ability... This is the ends of the earth, you can't solve it no matter who you ask!"

Xia Shouyu was not surprised. The other party was not opening a charity hall. It was not a big deal for a dignified Zifu to plant some means. At this moment, she knelt down with a thud, pinched a spell with both hands, placed it on the most precious Qi sea, and said with certainty:

"The little person received this great kindness, and will accomplish the adult's affairs with her life! If this oath is violated, thunder will surely be added to the body, the mysterious scene will break, and there will be no more Dao path to speak of!"

'Still thunder added to the body... sure enough, it is a poor country... the Thunder Palace has been dismantled by people, and this sentence is added to the mysterious scene spiritual oath.'

Li Ximing still had some confidence in her, only saying: "Be careful! If anyone dares to search your soul, this purple fire will explode, and everyone will lose their lives... If this matter is done, I will reward you with a Suiyuan Pill, ensuring your Foundation Establishment path!"

'Suiyuan Pill?... Could it be that Foundation Establishment Pill?'

Xia Shouyu didn't know what Suiyuan Pill was, but she could understand the Foundation Establishment path, nodded repeatedly and retreated, flew out of the fire, and went out of the hot spring all the way. The cold sweat on her back finally stopped.

The night wind blew, blowing her legs soft. Xia Shouyu lifted her sleeves, looking at the extremely obvious marks on her shoulders and the overly tender forearms, only feeling like a lifetime away: "Opportunity? Dead end?"

Wangyue Lake.

The thunder in the sky rumbled, and it rained on the continent. The water vapor everywhere rose, and everything quieted down. The hall was covered in white, people were hurried, and there was only the sound of raindrops and footsteps intertwined.

No one in the hall made a sound. It was not until the rainstorm came from the north, and the vast sky was full of rain, that a stream of light shuttled close, landed in front of the hall, and turned into a woman wearing jade on her waist. Her appearance was not outstanding, but her temperament was clear and bright.

"Master Xinghan!"

The cultivators on both sides saluted her. Li Xinghan nodded hurriedly, stepped over the steps and went to the main hall, and saw Li Jiangqian coming down from above wearing white clothes. The eldest young master who acted as the family head lowered his brows and said: "Aunt is here, I was just about to look for you. I got news from Uncle Zhouluo that there were two elders of the Zhou Xing generation in the family who had misfortune in Funan in the north, and people came to take subsidies. I can't make the decision on this matter, and I still need the elders to make the decision."

Li Xinghan was sent to the east bank this time to resist the Duxian Dao cultivators. It was said to be resisting the Duxian Dao, but this time it was more to deal with the demon cultivators who came to plunder while taking advantage of the chaos. She had taken several lives with her sword, and she felt that it was not enough.

This time she hurried back from the east bank, heard this, and felt a little sad, and asked: "Which brothers are they?"

Li Jiangqian replied: "One is Uncle Zhouken of the Zhong pulse, in the early Qi-refining stage, and the other is Aunt Xingsai of the Bo pulse, at the peak of fetal breath."

These two were familiar with Li Xinghan. Li Zhouken's talent was actually okay, and he had been to the continent back then. She felt sour in her heart and replied:

"The family always wants to let the direct descendants go out. Everything is the same as ordinary offerings. The border areas and places of slaughter are prioritized... It is for training, and it is a good intention, but it is a pity that they encountered this kind of thing and lost their lives."

Li Xinghan practiced sword since she was a child and had never encountered such things, which made her a bit at a loss. She was slightly uneasy and asked:

"Where are the two elders?"

She was referring to Li Minggong and Li Chenghuai. When she asked this, Li Jiangqian said:

"Aunt Minggong and Uncle Chenghuai are both in seclusion to heal their injuries. Miaoshui guest minister and White Ape senior are also. Master Cui is looking for Protector Ding outside. Only Qu Bushi, Li Wen, and An Siwei are on the lake."

He paused and said:

"And Protector Chen Yang."

To be honest, Chen Yang is the brother of Madam Chen, and the biological uncle of his second brother Li Jianglong. His breakthrough undoubtedly made the Chen family on the lake straighten their backs. The Chen family and the Li family are connected by blood. Li Jiangqian should have been happy, but he looked uninterested.

"Still no whereabouts of Protector Ding!"

Li Xinghan was worried when she heard this. Ding Weijian's combat power was definitely top-notch, and he had always been loyal to the family. This disappearance for several months made people anxious. After listening to his words, she replied:

"Still find several brothers and sisters, have a good chat. At this time, we have lost our backbone, and if we don't work together, it will look like dereliction of duty."

Li Jiangqian nodded repeatedly and sent people down to invite them, replying:

"Reporting to Aunt, I am going into seclusion in a while. Although there is still one spell not practiced... but the Foundation Establishment matter cannot be delayed anymore."

He practiced the sixth-grade 【Tianli Rize Sutra】. Recently, he had practiced the movement technique 【Daoyan Xing】, the supporting escape technique 【Chizhao Tianli】, and the 【Solar Yingli Art】 which now has a slight reputation. The one not practiced in his mouth was the sixth-grade spell 【Dali Bai Xi Light】. This spell required Zifu Lihuo, and there was no hope of waiting anymore.

Li Xinghan didn't know the details, only nodded in response with some envy. Although she was a generation older, she was only at the fifth level of Qi-refining until now.

After waiting for a while, a man in black pleated clothes entered from outside the hall, wearing a sword at his waist, his whole body full of golden energy, and he was in a hurry. His cultivation had reached the seventh level of Qi-refining. Li Xinghan nodded and said:

"Brother!"

Li Zhouluo responded. He had been in charge of Qingdu recently and had also reached the time to stabilize his cultivation and practice spells. There were more and more things on the lake, and he was busy, and he didn't sit in the hall until now, so he had time to rest.

After waiting for a while, the brothers Li Zhoufang, who were the oldest, had already arrived in the hall. These two brothers were carved out of the same mold, and they always went wherever they were needed, and they didn't like to talk. They greeted and stood on the side. Li Jiangqian retreated immediately.

There were not many talents in the Zhou Xing generation. These few could be considered leaders. Li Zhouluo was about to speak, listening to the thunder and rain outside the hall, a person landed in front of the hall, shook his robes, pushed the door and entered, and laughed: "Several brothers, it's rare to see each other!"

However, this person's golden lock on his neck was shaking, clanging, his face was a bit handsome, covered in white clothes, and he held a fan painted with flowers, birds, fish, and insects in his hand.

Li Zhouluo was slightly embarrassed, his expression was still normal, just stepped forward and welcomed:

"Fifth brother is here. You don't usually come to the continent, didn't expect to happen to meet today."

Li Xinghan glanced at it. The person who came was indeed the direct grandson of the True Person, Li Zhouming. He was now at the early stage of Qi-refining, the lowest among the crowd. Li Xinghan had almost never seen him a few times, just bowed slightly and replied:

"I have seen Fifth Brother today!"

Li Zhouming smiled and saluted left and right, lifted his robes and entered the courtyard, put the fan in his palm, and said:

"Me too. I bumped into the old man some time ago, and ate a heavy hanging. He asked me to wash my heart and change my face and be a good person from now on. I had to come to the continent to take a look... it counts as listening to an idea."

"Good."

Li Zhouluo responded. He was the one with the highest position among the brothers. Li Zhouwei was not there, so naturally he listened to him. He said in a low voice:

"Jiangqian is going into seclusion to Foundation Establishment, so the continent needs someone to hold the family affairs. Jiangxia and Jianglong are both good children, and they both occupy important positions. Letting anyone enter the continent has a taste of favoritism... I asked the old man, he hoped that the Zhou Xing generation would choose... how do you brothers and sisters see it?"

Li Zhouluo finished these words, Li Zhouming patted his fan on his robes and laughed:

"That is naturally the brother who has the most prestige. Just let the brother hold the family affairs, there is nothing to say! Nothing to say!"

He patted and beat the fan in his hand on his robes. Li Zhoufang and Li Zhouyang brothers were still silent, and Li Xinghan just hugged her sword and didn't respond. Li Zhouming saw this situation and only said: "Then the matter is settled like this? I thought it was a big deal."

Li Xinghan couldn't help it, finally opened her mouth and asked:

"Brother... the old man said that the Zhou Xing generation should choose, is it saying to choose the young master, or saying to choose the Zhou Xing generation?"

Li Zhouluo's appearance was the most outstanding among the crowd, and his voice was clear, replying:

"The old man was afraid of making several young masters dissatisfied, so he hoped to pick from us brothers, after all, it is just to manage for a few years..."

Li Xinghan then had the intention to nod. Although she was often outside, she also knew about the achievements of this brother. At the moment, there was no other candidate besides him, and she hesitated in her heart:

'The Ji pulse has not had the precedent of hosting family affairs until now... Do the two Foundation Establishments know about this? If the old man gave this order, it is no different from directly designating the fourth brother to hold the family affairs...' ===== CHAPTER 765 =====

"There has been no precedent for the Ji lineage to preside over family affairs so far... Do the two Foundation Establishment cultivators know about this? If the old master gave this order, it would be no different from directly designating the fourth brother to act on behalf of family affairs..."
