1905 Undercurrents Surge, the Beginning of a Major Event

This news made the whole city boil. During this period, the Li clan had been so high-profile that even the itinerant cultivators in the nearby area knew that Li Qianyuan was going to visit the Eastern Sea personally.

Now that he had finally arrived, everyone's gazes immediately gathered on him.

"He's finally here. I've never seen such a grand display before!"

"What's so strange about that? After all, Li Qianyuan is the number one expert of the younger generation and the number one figure on the prodigy list."

"That's right. If nothing goes wrong, he will definitely become one of the giants of Grand Xia's military in the future. He might even become the future Grand Commandant of Grand Xia!"

"I heard that he supports the crown prince of Grand Xia. If the crown prince succeeds in ascending to the throne, he might really become the Grand Commandant."

Everyone was talking about it, but there were more and more spies from various forces around. There was news that Li Qianyuan had come to seize an ancient inheritance located in the Eastern Sea.

This wasn't anything strange to everyone. If those peerless geniuses wanted to grow rapidly, none of them would cultivate obediently and step by step. Almost every step was a leap in development. Naturally, there were all kinds of fortuitous encounters.

Although Li Qianyuan, the Li clan, and the crown prince were all giants, a strong dragon could not suppress a local snake. This place was a gathering place for itinerant cultivators who did not obey the control of Grand Xia. Therefore, there were many people who had their eyes on this inheritance, and many people who wanted to take advantage of it gathered.

At this moment, it was time to determine who was better.

In the Li Mansion, Li Qianyuan gathered up all the masters who had come earlier immediately upon his arrival. Although many of these people were stronger than Li Qianyuan, they all followed his lead.

"What happened? How did the word leak out?" Li Qianyuan questioned.

The butler stepped forward and explained, "When the inheritance was born, it caused a huge commotion. We're not the only ones who received the news. I'm afraid someone secretly released the news and wanted to stir up this mess. When the time comes, we can fish in troubled waters.

"It's precisely because we can't hide it anymore that we spread the news with great fanfare. At that time, we should be able to intimidate most of the people with evil intentions."

"Hmph! They want to take advantage of the Li clan and me. I want to see if they have such sharp teeth!" Li Qianyuan snorted.

This time, he not only mobilized many masters from the Li clan but also borrowed some masters from the crown prince.

"But it doesn't matter. If our clan wants to establish a foothold in the Eastern Sea, it's inevitable that we will have to clash with these people. This time, we will let them see the strength of our clan so that they won't come and find trouble with us in the future," Li Qianyuan said coldly.

He knew very well that apart from being Marquis Huntian, he was also the head disciple of the Li clan, the next patriarch. Naturally, he had to consider the Li clan's perspective.

In Grand Xia, the various powers were intertwined and complicated. If they wanted to obtain any benefits, they had to snatch the meat from the mouths of the wolves. Naturally, it was not that easy. In comparison, there were countless rare treasures in the Eastern Sea, and there were even inheritances left behind by countless senior cultivators. This place was an endless treasure trove. However, there was no power that could unify the forces of the Eastern Sea, so it was an undeveloped virgin land.

Hence, over the past few years, more and more powers of Grand Xia had set their sights on the Eastern Sea. The Li clan was no exception. To the locals of the Eastern Sea, this was naturally like a dragon crossing the river. Many people were dissatisfied with this and were waiting for an opportunity to erupt.

Li Qianyuan intended to use this opportunity to wipe out all those who wanted to oppose his clan, laying the foundation for the Li clan to enter the Eastern Sea. This was a mission given to him by the clan. If he completed it well, his position as the heir would naturally be more stable. If he failed, it might be a blow to his prestige. Although it would not be a fatal blow, for someone as proud as him, since he had done it, he had to do it to the best of his ability.

"We have to obtain the inheritance," Li Qianyuan declared, "This inheritance is related to my next move. We can't make any mistakes. Tomorrow, we will set off and rush to the inheritance ruins. Whoever dares to stand in our way will be killed."

In his heart, there was only one thing he had to do next, and that was to win the Elder Princess' husband selection event and gain her support for the crown prince. As for who he married, he did not care.

However, as everyone broke through to the Creation Stage one after another, the advantage he originally had was no longer there. To him, there was a certain amount of pressure. However, after obtaining this inheritance, his cultivation would once again leave everyone behind. He wanted to use his absolute strength to tell everyone that he would always be the number one and that he was not someone that any Tom, Dick, or Harry could covet.

"Yes, sir!" Everyone in the hall agreed.

They were all showing respect to Li Qianyuan despite him just being a junior. They all knew that their cultivation had reached the limit, and the probability of further improvement in the future was very small. However, Li Qianyuan was different. Although he was currently a little worse than them, it wouldn't take long for him to completely surpass them.

Chu Yunfan, who had been paying attention to this matter, soon heard the news. However, he still did not act rashly. He just quietly waited for an opportunity.

Early the next morning, under the watchful eyes of the public, Li Qianyuan led a group of masters and 3,000 elite private soldiers of the Li clan into the deep sea.

Chu Yunfan made a hand seal, and an invisible light fell on one of the private soldiers. Although the soldier was an elite, with Chu Yunfan's strength, how could they sense that Chu Yunfan had done something?

Chu Yunfan closed his eyes and could sense the general direction of the private soldier he had tampered with. He was relieved, but he soon realized that he was not the only one who had tampered with this private soldier.

'Interesting. Looks like I'm not the only one who has his eyes on the Li clan.' Chu Yunfan sneered and didn't follow after the soldier immediately.

Instead, he glanced at the Li Mansion, which was located in the bustling area of the city, and his eyes flashed with a shocking light.
