Chapter 414: Tough

"The Li family in Xiangshui is really crazy. They think that they have four alchemy cultivators in the family, so they dare to target the Zhao royal family. Theirs, the number one alchemy cultivator family in Zhao country, is only in name. You must know that the Zhao royal family is also The Pill-forming Immortal Cultivation Family!”

"Where did you hear the news? Why is it so outrageous? Everyone knows how powerful the Zhao royal family is. Which alchemy cultivating family would mess with the Zhao royal family with nothing to do? Use your brain to think about it. , This is definitely a conspiracy of the Zhao royal family.”

"The Zhao royal family is powerful, but the Li family is not weak either. Among the ten, the Li family is now qualified to compete with the First Emperor. If I were the head of the Li family and I also had ambitions in this regard, if I had the ability, how could I The family does not want to replace Yihuang.”

"No, no, no, the problem still lies with the Zhao royal family. I have a good friend in Xiangshui County. When the incident happened, he was in Xiu Shifang City, Tongyang County."

After the news spread.

This has also become the hottest topic in the world of Zhao Kingdom's immortal cultivators. Two different mainstream versions have caused endless debate among the two groups of monks.

They all think that what they hear is the real news and what they hear is correct.

The closer you get to Xiangshui County, the version spread is the one that is favorable to the Li family. In Xiangshui County, few monks think that it is the Li family's problem and that everything is a conspiracy of the Zhao royal family.

On the contrary, areas far away from Xiangshui County, especially those close to Huangmin County, are more favorable to the Zhao royal family.

over time.

Three months later, the news remains unabated.

At present, there is no movement from either the Zhao royal family or the Li family.

Some monks in the world of immortality who like to watch the excitement especially hope that the news will spread again, whether it is the Zhao royal family or the Li family, even if one family takes action.

"I feel weird about the current situation."

"I'm not surprised. I think it's very normal. There's a lot of news out there right now. It just depends on which company can't calm down first."

"I'm not referring to the Li family, nor to the Zhao royal family. I think in this case, there should be some movement in the Qingfeng Valley of the Jiedan Sect."

"Qingfeng Valley..."

"Think about it, if the Zhao royal family and the Li family really come to war, who do you think Qingfeng Valley will help?"

"Well, this is a good question. Although the Li family is an affiliated core formation force of Qingfeng Valley, Qingfeng Valley may not necessarily help the Li family... Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. The situation here may be very complicated. I'm not waiting for you. If you can figure it out, let’s talk about something else. I heard that the Yu family has also had some problems recently. "

"Is it the Yu family?"

"Yes……"

Xiangshui County.

The foot of Evergreen Mountain.

Two monks on the sixth level of Qi Refining from the Li family who were guarding the mountain gate suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression.

The alchemy monks are coming here with bad intentions.

The two of them watched the monk slowly falling from the sky. They had never seen this alchemy monk before, but they knew that it must be the alchemy monk from the Zhao royal family. Regarding what happened three months ago in Shuishifang City, Tongyang County, They have heard all versions of the story.

"Why did this senior come to our Li family?" The Li family monk guarding the mountain gate asked directly.

With the backing of their family, and being at the foot of the family's ancestral mountain, they are not afraid of any pill-forming monks, and these pill-forming monks dare not do anything to them.

"I'm here to see your family patriarch Li Qianqing."

The alchemy monk who came from the Zhao royal family was Zhao Wuming.

After three months of planning, when he felt the time was right, he came to Li's house to ask for an explanation.

"Senior, wait a minute, I'll report it right away." Before the other party shows real hostility, some small etiquette must still be done.

"OK."

Zhao Wuming put back the little pressure he released.

These are just Qi Refining monks from the Li family. Just put a little pressure on them. There is no need to continue to do so. If you really do this, it means that there is a problem with the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom. They have come here before they have seen the Dan-forming monks on the other side. set.

Waited a little longer.

The monks who went up to report had just come down. During this period, many monks from the Li family who were taking care of the elixir glanced at Zhao Wuming, and then they quickly put away their gaze and continued to do their own things.

Zhao Wuming's face turned dark when he saw that the monk who came down was still the sixth-level Qi Refining monk who had been guarding the mountain gate.

It doesn't matter if the people who came down to greet him were not other Li family alchemy monks, not even a foundation-building monk.

If the head of the Li family, Li Qianqing, came to pick him up in person, then he would receive the highest standard of treatment from the Li family. Zhao Wuming had never thought about it because he knew that it would be impossible for him to show up, followed by the other pill-forming monks of the Li family, and then the foundation-building monks. Qi refining monks are undoubtedly the lowest standard.

Zhao Wuming had thought that the Li family just sent a foundation-building monk down, and the possibility was not low, but he never thought that it was a Qi-refining monk who came down.

"Senior, follow me up the mountain. The patriarch is waiting in the living room." The monk guarding the mountain gate ignored Zhao Wuming's unhappy look and said directly.

At this time, Zhao Wuming could only follow him, he couldn't just stand here and watch.

What a Li family!

Zhao Wuming went up to Changqing Mountain in silence.

"Senior, the patriarch is right here." After saying this, the monk at the sixth level of Qi Refining of the Li family went down the mountain.

The only thing that made Zhao Wuming feel okay was that at least Li Qianqing, the head of the Li family in the living room, was not another alchemy monk.

According to the information he had, there were two other Li family cultivators in Changqing Mountain besides the clan leader Li Qianqing, namely Li Xunting and Li Qiuben.

"Clan leader Li." Zhao Wuming looked at the normal Li Qianqing and called out.

He still remembered that Uncle Jiu had told him that this Li Qianqing, who was in the middle stage of the Jindan period, might have a cultivator in the late stage of the Jindan period, which was very unusual, so he must be more careful.

When he asked Zhao Wengang why he had such an idea, Zhao Wengang answered that when they met, Li Qianqing gave him such a feeling, and he, Zhao Wengang, believed in his feelings very much.

Zhao Wuming, who was also a Jindan cultivator, also believed in his feelings.

When he looked at Li Qianqing, he felt that he was very ordinary, and a cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan period should be just an ordinary cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan period.

"Daoyou Zhao, please take a seat."

"Yes."

After Zhao Wuming found a random seat and sat down, he looked at Li Qianqing and said, "Patriarch Li, you should know the purpose of my coming to your Li family this time."

"I don't know." Li Qianqing shook his head directly after hearing this, "I don't like to guess other people's thoughts. If you have something to say to Daoyou, just say it directly."

"Hahaha, Patriarch Li's personality... Zhao I 'like', then I will say it directly." Zhao Wuming nodded slowly, and then said, "This time I came to the Li family on behalf of the royal family, just to ask for an explanation."

"Oh." Li Qianqing pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhao Wuming and asked, "Ask for an explanation? What did our Li family do."

"Patriarch Li, don't tell me about the monk market in Tongyang County, you don't know." With this, Zhao Wuming made the situation clear.

"I know." Li Qianqing nodded, then looked at Zhao Wuming calmly, "But isn't that your royal family's problem? I didn't expect that you would sacrifice the life of a clan member just to find an excuse to deal with our Li family."

When he said the latter part, the calm Li Qianqing laughed, this time with a mocking smile.

It seemed that he was mocking Zhao Wuming, and the means of your Zhao royal family to find trouble were too low-level.

Facing Li Qianqing's mocking smile, Zhao Wuming's face remained unchanged. In fact, he was a little surprised in his heart. He didn't expect Li Qianqing to say such words to him directly.

Normally, a rapidly rising Jindan Xiuxian family like the Li family would not want to face them. Although it would cost a lot to destroy the Li family, the Zhao royal family could afford this price, but it was not necessary to do so unless it was necessary.

"Okay, okay." Zhao Wuming clapped his hands, "I didn't expect that you, Clan Leader Li, would look at our royal family like this."

Then Zhao Wuming began to laugh loudly, and laughed several times before stopping and continuing to speak.

"I can't stop Patriarch Li from thinking of our royal family, but I can say that our royal family doesn't want any of our clan members to sacrifice, and we won't do such a thing. This time, a member of our royal family died in the monk market in Tongyang County, which is managed by your clan, Patriarch Li. Now I need an explanation."

"Finally, I hope Patriarch Li will not misinterpret the facts."

Zhao Wuming didn't mean to admit it at all. Although there were only two of them in this place, Zhao Wuming couldn't guarantee that Li Qianqing didn't secretly use things like the photo beads.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao has his own opinion, and I have my own opinion. Since we have different opinions, there is no need to talk." Li Qianqing stood up and prepared to see him off.

Li Qianqing spoke in a relatively calm tone, but Zhao Wuming could feel his tough attitude.

The conversation hadn't even started, but it was about to end.

This was something Zhao Wuming hadn't expected.

At this moment, he had a doubt in his heart.

Is the Li family in Xiangshui County really not afraid of the Zhao royal family?

"Is Patriarch Li going against our royal family?"

"No, Daoyou Zhao, you said it the other way around. It's not our Li family that wants to go against your royal family, but your Zhao royal family that wants to go against our Li family. If you don't mean that, there's no need to arrange your family members to Xiangshui County... This is what you want, and our Li family can't change it at all."

When he said this, Li Qianqing didn't mean to explain it anymore, and said directly, "I've made it so clear, Daoyou Zhao has lived for a long time, so you should be able to understand it."

"Zhao understands."

Zhao Wuming certainly understood. What Li Qianqing meant was that their Zhao royal family wanted to take action against the Li family, even if they came, there was no need to talk too much.

If they could destroy their Li family, it would also be the ability of their Zhao royal family.

Li Qianqing was so tough, which was different from the information Zhao Wuming got about Li Qianqing.

And this difference was what he didn't want to see.

He came to Changqing Mountain to negotiate because he wanted the Zhao royal family to take down the Xiangshui Li family at the lowest cost.

The premise is that the Li family is willing to negotiate. If the Li family is unwilling to negotiate, he will not have any chance at all.

If he negotiates, no matter whether it will succeed in the end, there is always a chance.

"Since it is clear, then leave." Li Qianqing directly issued an order to expel the guest, without any cover-up to let him leave.

Zhao Wuming did not leave immediately, and he was silent in his seat.

The third time!

This is the third time that he has failed in negotiations.

Since he formed the elixir, all major negotiations have failed. Zhao Wuming is wondering what caused it. He failed twice in Qingfeng Valley and once in the Li family. He did not do anything for the family.

The consequence of these three failed negotiations was that the Zhao royal family had to pay a huge price to deal with the Li family.

If only the Li family could be eliminated, it would be similar to the Tianhe Sect.

They used tactics to eliminate the Tianhe Sect without losing a single monk. Zhao Wuming felt that he had a lot of credit for it, because he was the one who negotiated the important negotiations.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao." Li Qianqing looked at the silent Zhao Wuming, "You don't want to leave yet, do you want to stay in the ancestral land of our Li family forever?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Wuming, who was silent, suddenly looked up at Li Qianqing.

The meaning of Li Qianqing's words, when translated, is to attack him and kill him!

As an alchemy monk from the Zhao royal family, Zhao Wuming had his own pride. He didn't understand how Li Qianqing had the courage to say such a thing.

In his personal opinion, Li Qianqing declared war on the Zhao royal family.

"Clan Leader Li, you are so brave!"

Zhao Wuming did not leave immediately. If he left immediately at this time, he would feel very shameless. Of course, he would definitely leave anyway.

He didn't dare to bet that Li Qianqing wouldn't really take action.

If Li Qianqing really takes action, the two early-stage pill-forming monks from Qingshan, Li's parents, will definitely take action. He is not confident that he can survive the siege of a mid-stage pill-forming monk and two early-stage pill forming monks.

After all, he didn't form pills for a very long time, which is the level of strength of an ordinary early-stage pill-forming monk. If he is now at the peak of early-stage pill-forming, then he is really worthy.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao really want to give it a try?" Li Qianqing looked at Zhao Wuming jokingly.

"This is not Zhao's home. Zhao will naturally leave."

"I won't send it."

After Zhao Wuming left the living room, he flew away from Changqing Mountain under Li Qianqing's gaze.

In the final analysis, Zhao Wuming just came to negotiate, and he had no real intention to move him, unless Zhao Wuming kept looking for trouble.

As for what Zhao Wuming wanted to talk to when he came here, Li Qianqing could still guess a thing or two. According to the style of the Zhao royal family, through this matter, they usually hope that the Li family will agree to some conditions, and then The matter just passed.

After that, as time goes by, the Zhao royal family will definitely make further progress.

Compromise only slows down the pace of destruction.

If he was just an ordinary mid-stage pill-forming monk, and Qingfeng Valley wouldn't help the Li family, in this case, he might compromise, but his strength was extraordinary, and Qingfeng Valley could still help them.

If one of the two conditions is met, the Li family can be tough. (End of chapter)
