Chapter 279 Changes in Decision Making

According to the monthly transaction volume of cultivators, the other five cultivator markets combined are not as much as the cultivator market in Tongyang County.

The current management structure of the cultivator market in Xiangshui County was agreed upon by Qingfeng Valley and the Zhao royal family.

When Xiangshui County was not dominated by one company, it was difficult to change such a structure.

When the Li family became the real overlord of Xiangshui County, they were able to make changes, but it was also difficult. If there had not been this robbery, Li Qianqing felt that it would take at least 30 years, until he had almost cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, to make real changes in places other than the cultivator market in Tongyang County.

Now the manager of the cultivator market in Caolong County has been forced to abdicate, and Li Xingpin has temporarily taken over. At this time, if the manager sent by the Zhao royal family continues to be in office, he will have to bear the anger of the cultivators that is difficult to calm down.

Only by handing power to Li Xingpin can these cultivators feel comfortable.

But this is only temporary. The Li family will have to wait for the foundation building cultivators of the Zhao royal family to come and talk before they can really take over.

In the evening.

Four Li family monks went out of Changqing Mountain to carry out the task assigned to them by Li Qianqing.

…

"Have you heard? The monk market in Caolong County was robbed by robbers. These robbers are really bold. They dared to attack the monk market directly."

"I also heard that there are quite a few robbers, and there are even many in the late stage of Qi Refining. If the Li family foundation-building monks had not arrived in time, the losses would have been heavy, and many people would have died."

"Well, there is also the inaction of the manager of the monk market. I heard that when he heard that the robbers were coming, he was afraid and hid... Is he qualified to be the manager of the market?"

"Our monk market manager is also a member of the royal family. This makes me feel insecure..."

Under Li Qianqing's arrangement, the robbery of Caolong County by robbers began to spread rapidly.

While spreading the facts, there is no need to increase the exaggeration, because the monks will be more exaggerated than the original version after the second spread.

They only need to emphasize the role of the Li family in this incident and the incompetence of the managers sent by the Zhao royal family.

After the incident spread, the effect was still good.

After hearing the news, the monks who were mainly active in the other four monks' markets began to worry.

They were worried that after similar incidents happened in their monks' markets, the managers in the monks' markets would not take action.

As managers of monks' markets, they must not only eliminate the frictions between monks, these are small matters, but also stand up for real big things like this. Everyone will do the same.

"When the Li family monks found out about this, they would call the foundation-building monks in the family, and the person sent by the royal family would not tell the royal family members about this."

"You think too much. They are far away from us. Even if we tell them about this, they can't get support."

"Can't support? What's the use of them? Since they can't support, it's better to give the position of the market manager to the Li family monks. Once similar problems occur in the market, the Li family will definitely take action."

"Yes, the Li family is trustworthy in this regard. Everyone has seen what the Li family has done over the years. The Li family will probably not do anything to us after they completely control Xiangshui County..."

The family reputation maintained by the Li family also plays a very important role in the dissemination of information.

In addition to the rapid spread of the news in the four monks' markets, it also spread in the monks' markets in Tongyang County, but not many people in Tongyang County said it.

First, there are more cultivators in Tongyang County. For example, there are more than 30 cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining. If the big and small forces do business in Tongyang County, the shops guarded by them are basically cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining.

Unless the robbers have a problem with their brains, they will never attack the cultivator market in Tongyang County.

Second, the managers of Tongyang County are different from those of other cultivator markets. Qingfeng Valley still attaches importance to this place. After all, the Zhao royal family can intervene in too many places in Zhao State, but it also causes their influence in many places to be very limited.

Third, Li Qianqing did not ask people to spread information here. He never arranged people to do things that were not necessary. If he wanted to take over the cultivator market in Tongyang County, he had to wait until the Li family became a Jindan cultivator family.

…

When the robbers in Caolong County were looting the cultivator market, Yan Xuewei also met Huo Tianyan in Qingfeng Valley.

"Elder Huo, what a coincidence." When Yan Xuewei saw Huo Tianyan, she went up and greeted him for the first time.

After Li Qianqing told her the matter briefly through the sound transmission note.

She also agreed with Li Qianqing's idea that the robbery by the robbers was usually caused by Huo Tianyan behind the scenes.

Qingfeng Valley cannot do anything to the Li family openly, and it is even more impossible to suppress them. Therefore, if Huo Tianyan wants to do something to hinder the development of the Li family, she can only do it secretly.

Based on her understanding of Huo Tianyan, the robbery by the robbers is probably the first step. If this matter succeeds, it will have a little impact on the Li family, but this impact is not considered a big deal. However, if this group of robbers continues to act in Xiangshui County and even destroys the affiliated forces of the Li family, the situation will be completely different.

In order to deal with these things, the Li family has to pay a lot of energy to maintain its image and status as the overlord of Xiangshui County.

"Elder Yan." Huo Tianyan just nodded to Yan Xuewei and prepared to leave.

He didn't want to talk too much with Yan Xuewei now.

She was in a bad mood.

Yang Xiusheng didn't pass on any information to her. It's very likely that something unexpected happened, and people could even die.

Yang Xiusheng has been helping her with things for a long time. She trusts Yang Xiusheng very much and recognizes his ability.

Normally, it's impossible for him to fail in such a thing. If he fails, he should at least go to the third step of the plan.

The Li family must have no precautions for the first step of the plan. As long as they grasp the time of action, it's almost impossible to fail.

"Elder Huo, don't rush to leave." Yan Xuewei stopped Huo Tianyan and even smiled at her.

Huo Tianyan looked at Yan Xuewei in front of her and felt that there was something wrong.

Yan Xuewei usually saw her not like this.

"Elder Yan, it seems that there is nothing to say between us."

"No, Elder Huo, you are wrong. Even if we are enemies of life and death, we can still talk. What's more, our relationship has not reached that point." Yan Xuewei expressed it very bluntly. The two of them are senior elders of Qingfeng Valley. They are definitely not enemies, but opponents.

There is only one Dan-forming resource in the sect at present. Judging from the current situation, this Dan-forming resource will be given to either Yan Xuewei or Huo Tianyan.

"Elder Yan, what do you want to say?" Huo Tianyan looked at Yan Xuewei calmly.

"I want to ask Elder Huo, do you know who Yang Xiusheng is?" When she said the three words Yang Xiusheng, Yan Xuewei stared at the changes in Huo Tianyan's expression.

As long as Huo Tianyan's expression changed, she could catch it instantly.

"I don't know." Huo Tianyan just said three words coldly in the face of this question.

"Elder Yan, do you have any other questions?"

"No."

Huo Tianyan left immediately after hearing this, without any intention of staying.

At this time, Yan Xuewei did not continue to stop Huo Tianyan.

Yan Xuewei did not see the change in Huo Tianyan's expression just now, obviously she controlled it very well.

Despite this, Yan Xuewei was sure that Huo Tianyan was behind the scenes instructing Yang Xiusheng, and then Yang Xiusheng found Jie Xiu to carry out this action against the Li family. Before, she was only 95% sure that Huo Tianyan was behind the scenes.

Huo Tianyan faced her question, although she concealed her expression very well, but she didn't ask her who Yang Xiusheng was and why she asked me this question.

If it really wasn't Huo Tianyan who did it, she should be curious about this question.

She could even ask her a few questions when she asked this question, but Huo Tianyan didn't do these, but hurried away.

'Should I do something too? '

Yan Xuewei watched Huo Tianyan disappear, and finally she shook her head.

There is nothing to target the forces bound to Huo Tianyan. Now they can't compare with the rapidly developing Li family. When the Li family was in the third foundation building, they were a family of immortal cultivators with four foundation building. Now the Li family has been in the sixth foundation building, and they are still in the fourth foundation building without change.

The Li family consumed Huo Tianyan's power, which was equivalent to giving her more opportunities in disguise.

Now she just needs to keep her advantage, there is no need to do anything more. If she keeps some power, she can still support the Li family when they need it, which is obviously better.

'Sixth foundation building... Next is the seventh foundation building...'

Yan Xuewei thought about it and found that she was a little floating. Foundation building is not that easy. This time, the Li family's six foundation building is mainly for cultivators with different spiritual roots.

The cultivators who will build the foundation in the next Li family will have dual spiritual roots at most. Even with the help of foundation building pills, the success rate of foundation building is only 30% to 40%.

Huo Tianyan left without much expression on her face, and her heart was not calm.

When Yan Xuewei was sure that she was the mastermind behind it, she was also sure that Yang Xiusheng was indeed dead. She hid Yang Xiusheng very well. Yan Xuewei definitely didn't know this cultivator. If she knew, it was usually the information told to her by the Li family.

The Li family knew this information, and there was no news about Yang Xiusheng until now, so they could make it strong that Yang Xiusheng had sacrificed.

The reason why her expression didn't change just now was because she knew that Yang Xiusheng would never betray her.

That is to say, Yan Xuewei was testing her.

'You have fewer means...'

Huo Tianyan couldn't help thinking that she didn't have much left to offer.

In the current situation, it would be difficult for her to cause trouble to the Li family. If she continued to do so, she would still lose to Yan Xuewei. Now she couldn't even put some energy on the Li family.

Focusing on dealing with Yan Xuewei is what she should do most now.
