Chapter 401 Finding the Right Time

"Yes, the ninth great grandfather." Zhao Tiandong answered affirmatively, "I was very angry when I got the news. If I could, I would definitely go to the Li family in Xiangshui to ask for an explanation!"

Zhao Tiandong still looked indignant when talking about this matter.

"That man is Niu Qifei, and he is still my brother-in-law."

"Yes, I understand." Zhao Wengang nodded.

"Ninth-great-grandfather, you suddenly called me and still talked about this matter. Could it be that..." Zhao Tiandong did not continue, but focused on Zhao Wengang, waiting for him to tell him about it.

He couldn't guarantee 100% that what he was thinking was what Zhao Wengang wanted to say to him.

Calculating the time since Tianhe Sect was destroyed, the Zhao royal family has also been silent for many years. Last year, their royal family was no longer silent, and some actions are normal starting today.

"The reason why I called you here this time is about the Li family." Zhao Wengang nodded. His reminder was already obvious. If you haven't thought of it yet, you are not worthy of being a descendant of their Zhao family.

"Attacking the Li family directly?"

Zhao Tiandong acted a little excited, as if he was very happy to avenge his brother-in-law. However, before he could become happy, Zhao Wengang poured cold water on him.

"You can't take action directly. There is no corresponding reason now." Zhao Wengang shook his head, and now is not the time. The Zhao Kingdom's royal family only returned to normal last year, and they have taken such a big action this year. This is obviously not in line with him, the number one in the Zhao Kingdom. The power of great knot alchemy.

And this also tells other monks that the demise of Tianhe Sect really has a lot to do with us.

Zhao Wengang has thought a lot about it, especially considering how this incident will have a great impact on the Zhao royal family. Therefore, even if he wants to take action directly, now is not a good time, and Zhao Wengang has no intention of taking action directly yet.

There are many reasons for this, one of the main reasons is that Qingfeng Valley does not cooperate with them.

He felt that Qingfeng Valley was uncooperative not only because the current owner of Qingfeng Valley, Yan Xuewei, had a deep relationship with the Li family, but also because of the demise of the Tianhe Sect. In fact, it was Qingfeng Valley that cooperated with their Zhao royal family. action.

What they did to Tianhe Sect, although it was beneficial to Qingfeng Valley, would have aroused Qingfeng Valley's vigilance. If it weren't for the fact that two pill-forming monks were born in the Li family in a short period of time, and they also occupied Weishui County and had a small spiritual vein. In the land of spiritual veins, they would not point the finger at the Li family so quickly.

If the Li family was just an ordinary alchemy cultivating family, and there was currently only one clan leader, Li Qianqing, in the alchemy cultivating family, they would have been silent for a longer time now, and they would not have much contact with Qingfeng Valley in the next hundred years.

The rise of the Li family will cause certain damage to the next stage of their plans for the Zhao royal family.

Therefore, the Li family can exist, but it cannot be the rapidly rising Li family.

"Nine-great-grandfather, I don't quite understand. Isn't the death of my brother-in-law Niu Qifei a reason?" Compared with the many factors Zhao Wengang considered, Zhao Tiandong considered very few. What he valued was the present.

The Li family in front of them is obviously a thorn in the Zhao royal family's body.

"It's been a long time. Even if we really want to attack the Li family directly, it can't be for the same reason so many years ago." Zhao Wengang shook his head.

Zhao Tiandong understood after hearing this, 'Even if we really want to take action directly...', it turned out that it was different from what he thought. The royal family still had no intention of taking action directly against the Li family, which made him happy in vain.

At the same time, he was disappointed.

Now is not the time when Tianhe Sect was here, and they couldn't take action directly.

"Then what do I need to do?" After a moment of silence, Zhao Tiandong could only ask.

"Send a few clever Qi Refining monks to Xiangshui County to continue collecting information about the Li family." Although Zhao Wengang knows a lot about the Li family, this is the previous Li family, and they have rarely obtained information in recent years. There is information about the Lee family.

He needs more information, and then he can judge how to deal with the Li family, and it is best to suppress the Li family.

"Will someone die again this time?" Zhao Tiandong heard this and asked a question that he was very concerned about.

"Then this time it won't be as simple as last time..."

Zhao Wengang took a deep look at Zhao Tiandong. Last time, in order to implement the plan, the Zhao royal family could endure such a provocation. If something similar happens again this time, they will take action no matter what.

'Still not told what to do. ’

Zhao Tiandong is very annoyed by these older generations, especially because they like to look at this opportunity and that opportunity, and many things are not fully said.

What do you mean it won't be as simple as last time?

So how to do it is not easy.

Of course, he didn't ask these questions. He was just dissatisfied with these conservative old guys, and he was not stupid. If he dared to question these things, it would be disrespectful to his elders.

"I understand, Ninth-Great-Grandfather."

"Well, it's good that you understand." Zhao Wengang nodded lightly, "Go down and make arrangements with Xiangshui County. Once there is any important news about the Li family, you must tell me as soon as possible."

"yes."

After Zhao Tiandong saluted, he withdrew.

After returning to his residence, Zhao Tiandong still had a smile on his face.

In any case, the matter of inquiring about the Li family fell into his hands, and he was still responsible for Xiangshui County, not Wutong County or Weishui County. Although Weishui County is also guarded by the Li family's alchemy monks, Xiangshui County is the root of the Li family, with their family's ancestral land, Changqing Mountain.

"A bunch of old guys, like to find opportunities, right? Well, I'll find a good opportunity to give you a big surprise..."

Zhao Tiandong seemed to have thought of something, and his smile became even brighter.

...

March in spring.

A stream on Changqing Mountain flows down, and the leaves on it sway gently with the breeze. By the stream, several spiritual flowers bloom towards the sun, and the pink petals are beautiful and fragrant.

At the foot of the mountain, the position of the mountain gate was changed once, marking a larger area of ​​Changqing Mountain.

A golden light passed through the sky, and Zuoqiu Lipeng appeared in front of the two clansmen of the Li family who were guarding the mountain gate.

He is now the third elder of Qingfeng Valley. It has been eight years since he formed a pill. During this time, he worked hard to improve his strength after forming a pill, hoping to defeat Li Qianqing after he let go.

"This senior, who are you looking for?" Judging from the fluctuations of the other party's spiritual power, this person is not a foundation-building cultivator, but a genuine Jindan cultivator.

The Li family now has three Jindan cultivators, and is one of the best Jindan cultivation families in Zhao State. Even when facing Jindan cultivators, the Li family members behaved quite calmly.

A hundred years ago, such a scene would be hard for the Li family cultivators to imagine. At that time, the Li family cultivators had never thought that a Jindan-level cultivator would come to visit their Li family.

"Please go up and inform... your clan leader that the third elder of Qingfeng Valley, Zuo Qiulipeng, wants to see you." Zuo Qiulipeng wanted to directly inform Li Xunting, but after thinking about it, he decided to see Li Qianqing first.

He knew a lot about the Li family from Yan Xuewei.

After meeting Li Qianqing, he could basically meet Li Xunting, and if he directly said to inform Li Xunting, there was a certain possibility that he would be rejected. Although this possibility was small, Zuo Qiulipeng still didn't want this kind of situation to happen, which would undermine his confidence, so it was safer to meet Li Qianqing first.

'Valley Master Yan said that it was not difficult to meet Senior Li Qianqing. ’

Zuoqiu Lipeng thought in his heart that although he was in the Jindan stage now, Li Qianqing was Li Xunting's grandfather, so he directly regarded Li Qianqing as his grandfather.

"Okay, please wait a moment, senior."

One of the two Li family cultivators guarding the mountain gate quickly ran to Changqing Mountain.

There were some first-level spiritual fields next to the mountain gate. At this moment, there were also Li family Qi-refining cultivators taking care of the spiritual fields and spiritual medicines. The appearance of the Jindan cultivator Zuoqiu Lipeng attracted their attention.

If Zuoqiu Lipeng was a foundation-building cultivator, their attention would not be attracted, mainly because Jindan cultivators were still rare.

Zuoqiu Lipeng didn't wait for long before a Li family cultivator in the late foundation-building stage came down.

This person was Li Xundi. A few years ago, Li Xundi returned to Changqing Mountain from Weishui County, and a lot of burdens on his shoulders were unloaded, so he could spend more time cultivating. When he cultivated to the peak of foundation-building, he would have the possibility of trying to form a pill.

"Elder Zuoqiu, please follow me." Li Xundi bowed to Zuoqiu Lipeng and then made a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you."

Because he had a lot of contact with Li Xunting, he also had a certain understanding of Zuoqiu Lipeng, the newly promoted Jindan elder of Qingfeng Valley.

He seemed to like his elder sister very much... This time he came here, mostly for his elder sister's affairs.

On the way up the mountain, the two talked and laughed.

This was originally a good thing, but Zuoqiu Lipeng always had a feeling that this fifth brother of Li Xunting seemed to look at him with a strange look.

He didn't understand it, so he didn't think about it too much.

The most important thing for him now was to pass Li Qianqing's level.

If he could pass Li Qianqing's level, he would be one step closer to Li Xunting, which was a very happy thing.

"Elder Zuoqiu, my thirteenth grandfather is in here." Li Xundi brought Zuoqiu Lipeng to the reception room of the Li family.

There are currently three levels of reception rooms in Changqing Mountain. For different cultivators, Jindan cultivators are normally received in the highest level reception room.

"Thank you."

Zuoqiu Lipeng had something to ask Li Qianqing, so there was no need for him, Li Xundi, to go in, although he was a little curious about what Zuoqiu Lipeng would say to Thirteenth Grandpa.

In the reception room.

Li Qianqing was sitting in the main seat.

He was not surprised that Zuoqiu Lipeng would come to Changqing Mountain to find him, he just didn't know when Zuoqiu Lipeng would come.

Li Qianqing found Zuoqiu Lipeng interesting, and the more interesting point was that he actually told Yan Xuewei to let him go during the fight.

After all, Zuoqiu Lipeng is now a Jindan-level cultivator, and he should be a little arrogant, especially since he has just reached the Jindan stage not long ago. You know, there are not many Jindan-level cultivators in the entire Zhao State.

"Senior, I'm Zuoqiu Lipeng. I'm sure you've heard of me." After entering the reception room, Zuoqiu Lipeng immediately performed the etiquette of a junior meeting an elder to Li Qianqing.

Both parties are Jindan cultivators. According to the rules of the cultivation world, they should normally be on equal terms.

Zuoqiu Lipeng came up and directly raised his status to an elder, and it was easy to guess his thoughts.

"Elder Zuoqiu, there's no need to be polite. You and I are both Jindan cultivators."

"No, no, no, you are Xunting's grandfather, and according to seniority, you are also my elder." Zuoqiu Lipeng said hurriedly, fearing that Li Qianqing would not recognize him as a junior.

Li Qianqing nodded when he heard this, but did not refuse, "Well, sit down."

This was his first time meeting Zuoqiu Lipeng. Some of the information about Zuoqiu Lipeng came from Li Xunting, and most of the information came from Yan Xuewei.

"I have heard some things about you, Elder Zuoqiu Lipeng." After Zuoqiu Lipeng sat down, Li Qianqing said directly. He knew Zuoqiu Lipeng's purpose of coming here and did not pretend, "You came to Changqing Mountain this time to Fight with me, right?"

Zuoqiu Lipeng was about to say some compliments before getting down to business, but Li Qianqing directly pointed out the matter.

The compliment I had prepared was useless.

"Senior, this is the purpose of my visit." Zuoqiu Lipeng nodded, and then immediately asked, "What did the Valley Master say to senior?"

Li Qianqing first glanced at Zuoqiu Lipeng, then put away his gaze and said with a smile, "She told me something, hoping that I would let go of my fight with you..."

Although Zuoqiu Lipeng said these words, when he heard these words from Li Qianqing, he felt a little strange.

Seeing Zuoqiu Lipeng scratching his head in embarrassment and not saying anything, Li Qianqing asked.

"Elder Zuoqiu, do you really like our Xunting?"

"Of course it's true."

"In that case, why do you want me to let you go?" Li Qianqing looked at Zuoqiu Lipeng meaningfully, "This was not the case when Xunting told me about this. The prerequisite for you to pursue her is to defeat me. If I If it’s watered down, is this still a prerequisite?”

If there is really a fight of wits, Li Qianqing really knows how to let things go.

If he doesn't let go, Zuoqiu Lipeng will not be his opponent even if he reaches the peak of pill formation.

And what he did was not use his best knowledge and secret skills, but only use other means to deal with Zuoqiu Lipeng.

And this is definitely not what Zuoqiu Lipeng wants.

Without the use of spiritual consciousness and secret techniques, his strength is also more powerful than ordinary monks in the late stage of pill formation.

"Senior, I actually want to do this too, but if you don't let go, I will definitely not be your opponent..."

"It's not good to admit defeat without fighting."

"I will not make such a request if there is even a slight possibility, but if there is no possibility, wouldn't it be self-defeating?" Since agreeing to Li Xunting, he has been extra careful about Li Qianqing's strength information.

If Li Qianqing was still in the early stage of pill formation, he felt that he still had a little hope, but if Li Qianqing was in the middle stage of pill formation, he really had no hope of defeating him.

"I can't let go, but there are other ways you can go." (End of Chapter)
