Chapter 781: Purple Geng Vast Valley

Li Li Xuanxuan arrived at the main hall. The hall was brightly lit. Li Li Zhouluo was still in the hall, seemingly having just processed government affairs and was practicing spells. He pinched a seal, and five or six golden blades circled on his fingers, emitting a harsh whistling sound. As soon as the old man came up, the young man immediately opened his eyes, stopped the spell in his hand, came down from the main seat, and said respectfully: "Old Master is here."

Li Li Xuanxuan nodded, coughed, and replied:

"You've worked hard these days... The affairs on the west bank are troublesome. You are caught between the lineages and have no one to confide in. It's very difficult to do... Have you heard about Uncle Xihuan's affairs?"

Li Li Zhouluo saluted and replied:

"This is the junior's duty. As for the elders' affairs... there have been some mournful words on the continent recently, but they are not directed at the Old Master. Most of them blame Mount Qingdu, saying that there are many treacherous people in it, inciting the clan."

He led Li Li Xuanxuan to sit on the side and said: "I have read the letters the Old Master wrote to me some days ago. It is indeed tricky."

Li Li Xuanxuan shook his head and said:

"In the past, the ancestors decided that if a disciple of the Great Clan has no spiritual apertures, they cannot be an official or a merchant. The continent has rich spiritual energy, and the Great Clan has a noble status. These children do not separate and live on the continent. This matter is that they want to protect the status of the Great Clan and also want to be sheltered and become officials... I have thought about it, and these two prohibitions cannot be relaxed. If they enter the bank with the name of a direct descendant of the Great Clan, even if a fool sits inside, someone will naturally come to send money... not to mention how much harm a few people with many thoughts can do. That would be ruined."

Li Li Xuanxuan set his meaning first, and Li Li Zhouluo then whispered: "The junior has also thought about it during this time. The continent is indeed too idle, and they are all under the eyes of Mount Qingdu, living uncomfortably. These two points cannot be relaxed, but other places can be supplemented. Supervision on property can be relaxed... It is difficult to blame them for getting some property through their brothers and sisters who cultivate immortality, and those competitive means of dividing outsiders cannot be placed on them. It will hurt the harmony of the four lineages. They are mortals after all, so enjoyment is fine."

After Li Li Xuanxuan heard this, his voice was old: "Don't underestimate mortals. These people are the parents of future cultivators. I am afraid of fostering a style of extravagance... The clan system needs to be changed, but it cannot be changed in your hands... The Ji lineage has only you as a single seedling. If you offend all the clansmen, then a lineage will be alienated from the outside."

Li Li Zhouluo hadn't thought of this point, nodded slightly, and listened carefully, seeing the old man reply:

"The current plan is to stabilize them for a few years first, protect you so that you can retreat completely, and it is best to win a good reputation. In the future, the Ji lineage will be able to get along well with the two lineages. This is also extremely important."

Di Di Liguang had already retired. Li Li Zhouluo personally served tea to the old man and listened to Li Li Xuanxuan say:

"How many people are currently sheltered?"

Li Li Zhouluo replied: "I strictly follow the clan system and do not grant it lightly. I only granted it to the orphans of the uncles and brothers who died in battle. The remaining mortal clansmen were begged by the clansmen, and I was a bit soft-hearted, so I considered it and arranged some very small official positions..."

He didn't supply the Li Zhoufang brothers, only saying he was soft-hearted. Li Li Xuanxuan sipped his tea and replied: "Tomorrow morning, you bring people to my courtyard to plead for Uncle Xihuan, and you must bring Li Zhoufang along. I see he is very anxious recently... After pleading, you take Uncle Xihuan out."

Li Li Zhouluo respectfully responded, and the old man continued: "After you take him back to this hall, say that you cannot bear to see your brothers and sisters suffer, and have already considered sheltering and promoting mortals."

"For this matter of shelter, let Mount Qingdu choose, adopt a secret investigation method, and take into account character, parents' achievements, knowledge, loyalty, and filial piety. Promote the younger generation, investigate for three years, and announce the list at the sacrifice three years later."

Li Li Zhouluo realized, and the old man continued: "Do not mention the number of people on this list. Let them stabilize for a few years first. Three years later, you will promote people from various lineages, just in time to step down from the position, earn enough reputation, and wait for Li Jiangqian to come out and sing the bad guy... This child is fierce and ruthless, with a clever mind, and is not afraid of offending anyone, enough for them to drink a pot."

Li Li Zhouluo admired this old man from the bottom of his heart. There were not many people in the clan who understood his awkward situation. Li Li Xuanxuan was always the old man who considered him personally. At the moment, he was secretly moved and replied:

"Thank you, Old Master."

Li Li Xuanxuan nodded and replied:

"Although the intention on the continent is consistent, there are not many people who stand out. Among the four people who made things difficult for you that day, Li Chengzhi and Yu Xie'e are easy to appease. Uncle Xihuan is locked up now, only Cheng is stubborn, loves the clansmen very much, and acts ruthlessly. It is best to send him out, and the rest will be leaderless."

"Although I came secretly, I have already shown my face, and the continent will know sooner or later. You also know what to say... I don't need to..."

He only said half of his words when he heard a rush of footsteps in front of the hall. Di Di Liguang's voice was urgent, whispering:

"Family Head, urgent report from the continent."

Li Li Zhouluo saw Li Li Xuanxuan nod and said:

"Present it."

Di Di Liguang approached quickly, bowed to the two, and said respectfully:

"Young Master Zhouming arrived on the continent, went to the Yuanwan lineage courtyard to make a big scene. At night, the clansmen invited elders from other lineages to come, and they were crying in the courtyard. They were scolded by the Young Master and fled in all directions. Several elders were very embarrassed."

Li Li Zhouluo was stunned. Li Li Xuanxuan was not surprised. He stood up from his seat and said plainly:

"This beast is causing trouble everywhere. You and I will go and catch him back now."

Li Li Zhouluo understood that the old man was going to support Li Zhouming, nodded and said:

"Please, Master..."

The two drove the wind together and soon landed in a residence on the continent. It occupied a large area and was antique. The large courtyard in the center was a mess. Several middle-aged men stood in the courtyard with red faces, full of noise.

Li Zhouming wore red robes, but sat in the courtyard, his fan resting on his side, even with a smile. In the face of the expressions of many people around him who were angry but dared not speak, he really had the air of a playboy.

Li Li Xuanxuan and Li Li Zhouluo landed in the courtyard, and there was a cry. They all knelt down. Li Zhouming also jumped up from his seat and bowed:

"See Old Ancestor! See Family Head!"

Li Li Xuanxuan glanced and replied:

"You are causing trouble again! With so many elders here, how can you have a share of speaking? You are teaching your brothers here."

Li Zhouming hurriedly replied: "Old Ancestor, I passed by this place, and the courtyard was crying. I suspected whether Uncle Uncle Xihuan was old and there would be a funeral. I only knew after listening that Uncle Uncle Xihuan went to live on Mount Qingdu Mountain..."

He folded his hands and said angrily:

"I saw them rushing to divide the family property and crying for mourning in advance. This fire in my heart... really couldn't stop..."

"You... you are slandering!"

The middle-aged man on the side heard his face flush again. Li Zhouming smiled: "Not dividing the family property? Then what is it?"

There was a commotion all around. Li Cheng immediately stood out, pulled the people on both sides to stop them from talking, and stared at the people around him with his eyes, finally making the people in the courtyard close their mouths.

Li Cheng was one of the few remaining cultivators of the Chengming generation. Except for the two Foundation Establishment, he had the highest cultivation. Two brothers went to the river with him, and only he came back. Earlier, he broke his arm, which was continued by Li Li Ximing.

Now his daughter died in Funan, he had worked hard, experienced life, and experienced the ups and downs of the world. It was not something that this group of people on the continent could compare to.

'The Old Master is pulling the bias. It will not have any results if I make trouble with Zhouming. Instead, he is questioning us. I must grasp the current situation.'

He raised his eyebrows and bowed: "Old Master, Young Master Zhouming made a big scene in the courtyard for no reason, insulted the elders and clansmen, please send him to Mount Qingdu."

Li Li Xuanxuan was more sophisticated than him, nodded immediately, and replied:

"Not bad, come... please ask the Young Master to go to Mount Qingdu."

Di Di Liguang immediately stepped up quickly and asked Li Zhouming to go down. The young man hit his fan and went down unhappily. Li Li Xuanxuan coughed, reached out to help Li Cheng up, and said warmly: "Just right, you are here, I am looking for you, I have important clan affairs to entrust to you."

Although Li Cheng was stubborn, he loved Li Li Xuanxuan. Hearing this, he hurriedly got up and followed respectfully, leaving a group of people in the courtyard, looking at each other. Some wanted to retreat, some were crying to Li Li Zhouluo in front of the courtyard, and some were asking for guilt.

Li Li Xuanxuan used two sentences to make the storm in the courtyard disappear. Taking Li Cheng out was not a whim. After leaving the courtyard and walking for a while, the old man sighed:

"Cheng, Li Minggong and Li Chenghuai are in seclusion. There are not many elders in the clan, and many things have to fall on you... Brother Xuan Yue moved away, Cui Cui Jueyin returned to the continent, the families on the east bank and the wilderness should not be held in Li Jiangxia's hands. The authority to command the east bank in the Milin Mountain cannot be vacant. I still have to ask you to go there and take over the affairs in the palace for him."

This was a busy and unprofitable thing, but Li Cheng flicked his robes and knelt down with a thump. His voice was particularly low: "The lake has orders, Cheng will not refuse even at the cost of his life! But Old Ancestor, don't send me away just to stabilize the continent..."

He kowtowed and replied: "The clan uncle is making trouble. The junior only wants to protect Li Chengpan, but there must be a problem with the clan's affairs now, so it must be changed. The Wangyue Li family has raised a group of idlers on the continent, a group of Early Zifu descendants who farm... what kind of system is this... it must be changed, Old Master..."

Li Li Xuanxuan helped him up and exhorted: "I know your thoughts. You grew up in the courtyard with Li Chengliao and the others, otherwise you wouldn't have fought hard in the north. The Chengming generation are not cowards. I think so... you take the younger generation in the clan... those who dare to fight, especially those without elders to support them, and take them with you, learn and see..."

"Thank you, Master!"

Li Cheng nodded repeatedly. Li Li Xuanxuan comforted him a few words, sent him away, gathered his sleeves and stood on the spot, lifted his breath and relaxed, leaning on the lacquer wooden pillar in the corridor to watch the night view. There were purple spots in the sky. He was suspicious, and soon saw Di Di Liguang rushing up, reporting:

"Old Master, people from the Ziyan Sect are here, a group of people are very lively, pointing to see the Old Master."

"So fast!"

Li Li Xuanxuan was both surprised and happy. At this time, a group of Ziyan Sect people came and named him, it must be the formation. He hurriedly lifted his feet and left. Di Di Liguang's cultivation was not as good as his, and he chased him sweating profusely.

Two steps to the hall, Wen Wu had been waiting for a long time, and was chatting hotly with Li Li Zhouluo. Seeing him, his eyes were smiling, he took out two carp-like wooden boxes from his sleeves, and smiled: "Old Senior is still so kind and gentle, making the junior feel warm in his heart... The two children in the sect are doing very well. Li Quexi asked me to bring a letter. I thought the children are filial, so I ran to Ziqi Peak specially and brought Li Queyi's letter too!"

Wen Wu's actions were very pleasing. He sent the letter to Li Li Xuanxuan's hand. The old man also smiled. He was a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator after all, and he didn't need to weigh it to know that the weight in the box was very different. He turned his hand and put it away, replying: "It's really hard work for you, Master... The children in the family are stupid, and I have to trouble the Senior Brother to teach them well."

Wen Wu laughed and replied:

"Old Senior doesn't know, my Ziyan Blessed Land has competitions every year, and each cultivation level competes separately. The Junior Sister has profound spells and quick reactions. She won the sixth place in Embryonic Breathing and received a reward!"

"Everyone in the sect knows that she is from the Wangyue Immortal Clan, and they praised her, saying she has the style of Shen Shen Yanqing back then..."

Li Li Zhouluo nodded repeatedly and asked:

"I don't know Li Queyi..."

Wen Wu took it quickly and smiled: "She is also very competitive... The spells and cultivation methods of the Qi Refining cultivators in the sect have taken shape, and the dharma tools are very powerful. Li Queyi won the thirty-first place among the early-stage Qi Refining cultivators. Although it is a pity that she didn't enter the top thirty, her 【Moon Que Sword Arc】 made the Peak Master of Qijian Peak raise his eyebrows, and her technique shocked the audience!"

Wen Wu picked the good things to say, and Li Li Zhouluo was also very surprised, replying: "The Ziyan Blessed Land is really powerful. They always couldn't learn it at home. How long have they been in, and they have mastered it immediately."

Li Li Xuanxuan smiled and pulled the topic back, not mentioning Li Li Queyi at all, and went to praise Li Li Quexi instead. Wen Wu stepped and nodded, the pair of golden-white talismans on his waist collided, and he smiled:

"Old Senior, I came here this time for the True Person's affairs. I heard from my Peak Master that the True Person of your clan deposited a Early Zifu Great Formation in my blessed land. After all, the True Person's formation Dao is profound. Originally, I intended to ask the True Person to arrange it. The Early Zifu Great Formation is not a matter of one or two days, so we came first."

He looked at the expressions of the two and said sternly:

"The matter of the formation is related to the continuation of the lineage. It is often said that it cannot be easily taught to others. My blessed land also considered this point and dared not come to build it for a long time. Now that we are sent here, it is also to build a few parts related to the formation platform first, just in time to wait for the return of True Person Can Zhaojing, let him check them one by one, and then carry out the next step of construction."

His words fully displayed the demeanor of the solar lineage. He took out a thick purple-gold scroll from his sleeve, with elk, birds, and scripture symbols engraved on both sides, first tucked it into his arms, and said: "This time, the Pastor Peak, Heaven Formation Peak, and Cuiqing Peak of Ziyan Blessed Land are working together. Five Foundation Establishment cultivators, twenty-seven late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, two weapon refining masters, six weapon refiners, one formation master, and four formation refiners, totaling thirty-two people, led by Wen Wu, the first disciple of Pastor Peak."

He sent the purple-gold scroll to Li Li Xuanxuan's hand and replied:

"Old Senior, these thirty-two 【Purple Geng Vast Valley Mountain-Piercing Brother Xuan Nails】 are very troublesome, especially the materials. Large-scale procurement will cause prices to rise. It cannot be too urgent. Three or five years are probably not enough. Please ask the Family Head to designate a place for the cultivators of my blessed land to rest on the continent. Many cultivators in the sect will travel around the surroundings, or come and go from the sect, so it will trouble your clan."

"However, please rest assured, the people in the sect have all made spiritual oaths, and they are all elites. They will definitely keep it secret. Not only are the formation patterns drawn separately, and the parts built separately, but even the names of all parts and formations are unknown."

"What are you talking about, Wangyue should thank the blessed land."

The two were polite. Wen Wu also brought spiritual items and elixirs to see Li Li Quexi's family. The Ziyan cultivators on the continent were not arranged, so they retired early. The door of the main hall closed tightly. Li Li Xuanxuan frowned:

Li Cheng 【Qi Refining Level 2】 【Direct descendant of the Bo lineage】

Li Li Zhouluo no longer concealed the strange look on his face and whispered: "Old Master, this can save at least twenty pieces of expenditure! Twenty pieces per root, thirty-two roots is six hundred and forty pieces!"

Li Li Xuanxuan was shocked and asked:

"Where did this come from!"

Li Li Zhouluo appeared a bit embarrassed and whispered:
