Chapter 767
Seeing his appearance, Li Li Zhouluo had to get up and avoid him, came down from his seat, and replied: "Sect Master Kong, please get up quickly. Sect Master has Foundation Establishment cultivation and is an elder... You are shaming me."
Kong Kong Guli did not let him help, but stood up with a lift. His voice was low and respectful, and he only replied: "The grace of saving the orthodoxy, there is no elder... My family's few juniors are all very grateful to the noble clan. Today, Xuanyue reserves fire for Wangyue Lake. In the future, if the lake has orders, there is nothing that will not be answered."
Li Li Zhouluo nodded. His Wangyue Lake was really not easy. At the moment, he was easing the relationship with the Duxian Dao on the opposite bank, fearing that the Xuanyue Sect would do something out of line. He whispered: "The territory on the east bank, borrow it for your sect to station first. It is best to patrol on weekdays, you don't need to do anything... As for the Bai Ye Duxian Dao matter, please Sect Master endure it for now and don't go to provoke them again, adding trouble."
Kong Kong Guli nodded repeatedly and said firmly:
"I have already told the few juniors. My Xuanyue is weak. On weekdays, we are polite when we meet loose cultivators. We will never cross the river to provoke them again. If we add trouble to the noble clan... you don't need to take action, I will end one or two muddled sect members myself."
Li Li Zhouluo exhorted:
"Don't cause trouble, or it won't be just a matter of one or two sect members."
Kong Kong Guli agreed, and Li Li Zhouluo said:
"The wilderness territory is unusual, and the various families will not let them occupy it. When the True Persons have discussed it, the Duxian Dao will inevitably retreat. You will have to go back then... How many sect members have you gathered?"
Mentioning this, Kong Kong Guli's heart was as cold as ice, and he said in a low voice: "Reporting to the family head, except for a few direct Foundation Establishment members, there are four Qi Refining, ten miscellaneous Qi, and several Tai Xi..."
He found it difficult to speak and whispered: "When the mountain gate was destroyed, a batch surrendered, a batch died, and we moved to the wilderness, only then gathered some people, and were broken again. Duxian sent the previously surrendered cultivators to collect them, and they were all shaken."
After these few times, even the most loyal sect members knew that Xuanyue was hopeless. Even if Kong Kong Guli kept shouting that a Early Zifu would emerge, the sect members also knew that they might not be able to wait until that time... Duxian Dao also had Early Zifu. If they surrendered, would they not be settled accounts one by one in the future?
So when the wilderness declined, Xuanyue not only lost a large piece of loyal family direct descendants, but even the sect members were lost.
'Sigh!'
The dignified Xuanyue Sect, one of the three sects and ten gates, was left with only these few shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Such a group of people placed in the former Xuanyue Sect would not even be enough to set up a hall. Li Li Zhouluo could only be silent. Kong Kong Guli said uneasily: "I see there are many loose cultivators on the east bank, Xuanyue is looking to send people to take a look and collect a few disciples..."
The east bank has always been the Li family's territory. Kong Kong Guli naturally dared not point fingers. Collecting the east bank's clan cultivators, he could only hit the idea of loose cultivators. Li Li Zhouluo replied:
"This matter is harmless, but Sect Master must pay attention. These loose cultivators have difficult characters, don't smash Xuanyue's signboard."
Kong Kong Guli nodded repeatedly, feeling that this family head of the Zhou generation was easier to talk to than the previous one, and his heart relaxed a lot. Having obtained permission, he had not yet expressed his gratitude when he took a jade box from his sleeve and said respectfully:
"My Xuanyue sect members are gone, and the magic treasures in my hands are also vacant. I can't use them, and there are many demonic cultivators, making it difficult to resist. I want to send them to the noble clan's cultivators to make the best use of everything."
"Sect Master, what are you saying?"
Li Li Zhouluo first declined, and Kong Kong Guli immediately gave him a step, replying: "There is no other intention. My family's cultivators are gone, and the few juniors cannot exert the great effect of the magic treasures. They are always injured, and I am afraid of delaying their path. If I can ask the noble clan's Foundation Establishment cultivators to take action, each magic treasure will be used to its full potential. It is just to protect the safety of my family's juniors."
"And I heard that the lake has to send people specifically to resist the demonic cultivators, and I feel even more embarrassed... I can't let the noble clan's cultivators run for nothing..."
Li Li Zhouluo argued with him for a while, pretending not to be able to talk to the old man, and finally agreed. Kong Kong Guli diligently opened the jade box, revealing the red-bright broken jade bead chain inside.
The old man held the base of the box with one hand and lifted the string of broken jade beads with the other, hanging them on his four fingers, shaking them twice, his index finger trembling slightly on his middle finger, and smiled: "This is my family's heirloom, called 【Red Turbid Jade Treasure】. Hanging it on the neck can boost blood energy and protect the body. It is very powerful. It used to be an ancient magic treasure and could turn into a red jade chain to suppress enemies. Now it doesn't work."
Seeing Li Li Zhouluo's expression, he immediately explained: "It was broken by someone during a fight... This thing was put together by the True Person later, so it doesn't count as an ancient magic treasure... but it is still powerful..."
He immediately put the thing down, lifted the base of the jade box, and there was a transparent glass small bottle inside, with a gray piece inside. Kong Kong Guli said:
"This is the legacy of my family's True Person. He once accepted the invitation of a certain True Person to remove demons in the sea and obtained this spirit object. It cannot count as a Early Zifu-level spirit object, but it can count as Early Zifu resources... If the noble clan needs it, it is also excellent for making armor."
"I heard the True Person say privately that if this thing is forged properly, it may not be worse than an ancient magic treasure."
Except for the glass small bottle in the middle, there was a Foundation Establishment magic treasure on the left and right of the bottom layer, but the grade was not high, and it was mediocre, not even worth mentioning, just with a note jade slip on the side. Kong Kong Guli put the things down and finally took a pair of bright, patterned small cymbals from his sleeve, like two small straw hats, and choked up: "This last one... is prepared for the descendants of Daoist Cheng... but I heard that he died young and did not even leave bloodline. I am ashamed to the extreme, so I ask the family head to accept it on his behalf... to express my Xuanyue's gratitude!"
Li Li Zhouluo saw clearly that this pair of cymbals was clearly refined with Geng metal and a certain orthodoxy, not knowing whether it was True Qi or Purple Qi, revealing a taste of mixed one-mysterious-flat. Not only was it very powerful, but even if a Thunder cultivator was injured and held this magic treasure, there would be no discomfort, which showed that Kong Kong Guli had put a lot of thought into it...
But he, Li Li Zhouluo, practiced exactly "Geng Metal", and whether this thing was sent to the so-called descendants or really to him was actually hard to say...
The young man secretly thought:
'What a Sect Master Kong.'
He immediately put the jade box aside, took the cymbals out alone, and replied: "Since it is a gift for the descendants of the elder, come here!"
Immediately seeing a Mount Yuting guard come up, Li Li Zhouluo said:
"Take the things down and put them into the clan treasury."
He let people take the things down in front of him. Kong Kong Guli did not show embarrassment and nodded repeatedly, replying:
"This kind of magic treasure is very rare now... and it is extremely useful for fighting... All the uses of magic treasures and spirit objects are recorded in the jade box's jade slip. I will take my leave."
This Sect Master hurried out. Li Li Zhouluo then returned to his seat. The court guard came up again, knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and presented the cymbals with both hands, replying: "Reporting to the family head, I have not obtained the grade of the treasure, and I do not know which treasury to put it in."
Li Li Zhouluo was slightly surprised, looked at the magic treasure in the person's palm, and asked: "How clever, which family are you from?"
This court guard replied: "The villain's surname is Brother Dili, with the given name Guang, from the North East Shanyue royal family."
'Brother Dili... the humble surname of the East Shanyue in the past, now it is also a royal family...'
Li Li Zhouluo nodded slightly. The North East Shanyue royal family sounded bluffing, but in fact, it could not be compared with the An, Chen, Dou, and Xu families at all, and it was only slightly better than the cold gate.
Brother Dili Guang was clear-minded and intended to confirm, but Li Li Zhouluo really had no intention of coveting this magic treasure, only saying:
"The best of Foundation Establishment, send it to Mount Qingdu and ask the old master to take a look."
Brother Dili Guang was about to retreat, but Li Li Zhouluo called him and said: "You are on duty on the 22nd... Come to the hall for the next two years, and follow me in the future. I have received news from the old master and am about to go there."
Before he had time to leave the main hall, news came that Chen Yang and others were waiting outside. Li Li Zhouluo respected this capable subordinate of his elder brother very much and signaled Brother Dili Guang to leave first.
A young man entered the hall, wearing soft armor, full of smiles. As soon as he arrived in the hall, he had already knelt down, his etiquette was complete, and then he said: "Chen Yang has seen the family head!"
Li Li Zhouluo nodded and said:
"Congratulations, Protector, this breakthrough has solved the urgent need of the clan!"
Chen Yang was kneeling on the ground. Hearing this, he stood up, his eyes revealing a bit of ruthlessness, and said: "Family head, I heard that many demonic cultivators are making trouble on the east bank. In such a season, these one or two demonic cultivators dare to hit the idea of my Wangyue Lake. Please let me go and let them taste the power!"
This was exactly what Li Li Zhouluo meant. After all, among the few confidants in the family, only Chen Yang's immortal foundation grade was higher and he was good at fighting. He only said:
"I am just for this matter, I want you to go. Xuanyue also sent magic treasures, under the banner of assisting the east bank. Then you take these magic treasures and go over. First, it can enhance strength, and second, it can be regarded as a response to them."
Li Li Zhouluo immediately took out the 【Red Turbid Jade Treasure】 from the jade box, and took out a shield and a tower from the bottom layer, putting them all into his hands, and whispered:
"Take one of the shield and the tower, whichever is suitable, take it away, take the 【Red Turbid Jade Treasure】 into your hand, use these two magic treasures, and go to the east bank..."
"Everything is still based on protecting yourself. After all, your immortal foundation is strong and the magic treasures are powerful. A few demonic cultivators cannot make things difficult for you, just pay attention to safety."
Chen Yang took the jade slip and read it, thoughtful, picked up the shield, and showed suspicion, saying:
"Family head, as of now, I see that it is difficult for these demonic cultivators to be the intention of any Early Zifu... After all, at this point, those who should be offended have been offended, and those who should not be offended have long escaped. If it is simple looting, one or two families are reasonable, where do so many demonic cultivators come from... Foundation Establishment has several, what good things can Foundation Establishment rob on the east bank..."
Li Li Zhouluo frowned and said:
"What do you mean..."
Chen Yang whispered:
"It's not clear yet. It looks like there is an ulterior motive, and it doesn't look like it's aimed at my family. The east bank and the wilderness have no clear division, and the dogs' teeth are intertwined. I will go to the east bank to inquire. If the Duxian in the wilderness is also attacked, it is hard to say whose subordinates these demonic cultivators are, and it is hard to say that we are being implicated."
"This matter is left to you."
Li Li Zhouluo also felt it made sense and entrusted the matter to him. Chen Yang soon retreated. Li Li Zhouluo has always respected his elders and still remembered Li Li Xuanxuan's summons. He did not rest for a moment and flew straight to Mount Qingdu.
Passing through the lake water, he soon saw the color of the Five Water Imperial Dry Array. He pointed in the air and landed on the side peak. The old man was dressed in blue-ink color, quite formal, and sat silently in the pavilion.
Li Li Zhouluo landed in front of his courtyard and walked to the pavilion. After all, the old master's seniority was so great that even his father had to walk honestly when he came. He knelt down in the pavilion.
"Seen the master."
"Come."
Li Li Xuanxuan smiled kindly when he saw him, asked someone to serve tea, and after Li Li Zhouluo sat down, let the people on both sides retreat, and then asked: "I heard that you took the Suiyuan Pill for the third boy?"
Li Li Zhouluo felt something was wrong instinctively when he heard this, and said with a hard scalp: "Reporting to the master, exactly."
Li Li Xuanxuan hesitated slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "Suiyuan Pill is precious after all, but any mobilization of one, all the clan elders know. I specifically found Li Jiangxia to ask, and it turned out that he asked for this one for a friend..."
"This matter... you were not thoughtful."
As soon as this was said, Li Li Zhouluo was really sweating profusely. Li Li Xuanxuan has always cared for the juniors and never said anything in front of people. With the old master's prestige, just this one sentence, whether Li Li Zhouluo did well in managing the family in the future or not, it was not good.
"Please give me some advice!"
He replied, and Li Li Xuanxuan only sighed and said:
"The matter of a pill is not big, and there is no need to be so calculating about this matter. The bad thing is that it was taken privately and used privately. You have just taken charge of the family and have no prestige, so this matter is really not good to hear..."
"That Pei Yu Xie's spell-fighting, I heard it is first-class. You should have pointed out a competition and let the loose cultivators at the peak of Qi Refining participate as the first-class reward, so that everyone can be convinced... You have no prestige, and the elixir was not yours... How is this appropriate?"
The old man looked a little anxious, his withered hand pressed and released on the teacup, pressed and released, his voice was a little hoarse: "But your order has already been sent, and several clan elders know about it, and I cannot stop you... You have just sat in this position, and if I stop you like this, you will not be able to do anything in the future..."
Li Li Zhouluo had not worried about resources since he was a child, and subconsciously did not regard Suiyuan Pill as anything extraordinary, and even the magic treasures that others could not ask for were just like that in his eyes. He agreed at once, but as soon as the old man pointed it out, he understood, and hurriedly said: "I will go back... and deduct my own share... to show fairness."
Li Li Xuanxuan heard this, his eyebrows finally relaxed, and he said earnestly:
"The two sentences just now were all words spoken by the old man behind closed doors. Whether it is your fifth brother, you, or even Han'er... I have been watching over your affairs one by one, and it will not spread out. It's just that... managing the family is not as simple as entering Mount Qingdu. You must have a long memory in the future!"
Li Li Zhouluo was truly moved at this moment. He had always felt that the old master had the bearing of an elder, and he respected him the most in his heart. Now he felt more affection, and said in a low voice: "Old master, don't worry. Although Li Zhouluo is dull, I will definitely come to ask for advice from time to time in the future, and I must make the family peaceful."
Except for Li Li Zhouwei, Li Li Xuanxuan was counting on him to have some ability to govern affairs, so he did not blame him much, and immediately said: "Go... go... everyone is watching at this time, don't stay here too long, just treat it as paying a visit."
Li Li Zhouluo understood and retreated after kowtowing. Li Li Xuanxuan sipped his tea and sighed in his heart:
"This third boy is still powerful... After such a scene... Luoluo even let out his own elixir to support him. Everyone will feel that the family head Li Li Zhouluo is better towards Li Li Jiangxia..."
