Chapter 689 Passing

Not only did the two of them fail to break through to the Nascent Soul, but they were covered in injuries, which looked quite serious. The condition of their contracted spirit beasts was also in a relatively bad condition.

At that time, Li Zhirui, who was cultivating in Qian, was alerted, and he specially refined a batch of top-quality healing elixir for them.

"Ancestor Rui, how are the two clan elders doing?" Li Wenli asked worriedly.

Not to mention that both of them are rare in the late stage of Jindan in the family, Li Chenghao is the only weapon refiner in the Li family who can refine high-grade magic weapons. His identity and status are very important.

"You have to quiet down and recuperate for a while." Li Zhirui's expression was not very good, because the injuries on the two people were not caused by ordinary fighting, but seemed to have been abused!

But with the current situation of the two of them, it is not convenient to ask what is going on. We can wait until the injuries are better.

"Wen Li, please tell the clansmen to be more careful. If you find a sneaky monk, report it to the family in time." I don't know if their enemy will chase him. If he does, it will be a good thing.

"Yes!" Li Wenli suppressed the surprise in his heart, bowed, and hurried to issue the order.

——

Hundreds of miles away from Ten Thousand Immortals Island, in an ordinary small city, in a specially rented cave, three golden elixir monks gathered here.

"I told you to keep an eye on those two people at all times. Now that they have escaped, how will you return to your ancestors when you return?" One of them couldn't help complaining.

"You were obviously guarding the two of them that day, but you let them escape. What does that have to do with me?"

"If you hadn't gone to have some wine, would they have escaped?"

"It's your own incompetence. Those two monks are almost useless, but you can still let them escape!"

"you!"

"Okay! Shut up!" The monk in red with the highest level of cultivation yelled.

The two of them did not dare to disobey this person and immediately became quiet, but the confrontation between their eyes never stopped.

"Things have happened, let's think about how to deal with the aftermath now! You don't want your ancestor's methods to fall on you!" The red-clothed monk said with a gloomy face.

Hearing this, the two of them shuddered immediately and hurriedly said: "Brother, you are the smartest, have you come up with any ideas?"

"Those two people should be members of the Li family. They may have escaped back to the family now. It is impossible for us to catch them again."

After a pause, he continued: "But there are so many monks in the world who specialize in Fire Elemental Techniques. Just two more monks. But be careful, so as not to be discovered by the Li family, not to mention ruining the ancestor's plan. , and it will also cause the sect to get into trouble with the enemy of the Li family."

The next night, the three got together again.

"Brother, the Li family has issued an order saying that there are traces of demonic cultivators in the territory. We must be wary of strange cultivators. It is best to go together when going out. If anyone suspicious is found, the Li family will receive a generous bonus."

Because they were relatively close to Ten Thousand Immortals Island, they were the first to receive orders.

As soon as this order came out, it did not mean that everyone was in danger, but it made all the monks become very vigilant. If they got closer, they would be warned. If they continued to approach, the targeted Jindan would immediately escape. .

"Then wait, don't rush to take action. There is still some time before the demonic fire riots in the ancestor's body. Let's go back before the old disease breaks out." The red monk thought for a while and said.

——

Half a month later.

On Wanxian Island, Li Chenghao and Li Chenghua have recovered a lot from their injuries.

Li Zhirui then asked what happened to the two people outside and how it could be so miserable.

"Uncle Ninth." Speaking of this, Li Chenghao's expression suddenly became depressed.

Li Zhirui was not in a hurry and waited for the two of them to calm down.

"In the beginning, Chenghua and I had a good time practicing outside. Although there were some setbacks, the two of us joined forces and had our own spiritual beasts. We didn't encounter any hardships. It's just that we never found a chance to break through, which made us a little frustrated."

A trace of nostalgia appeared on Li Chenghao's face, and he murmured: "As time went by, Chenghua and I gradually lost confidence. We thought about leaving home for many years and planning to come back for a rest."

"Unexpectedly, on the way home, we encountered a drama that we directed and acted ourselves!"

Speaking of this, his eyes were full of anger, "Because seeing that the monk was miserable and flying towards us again, and there were only two Golden Core monks chasing him, I wanted to save his life."

"Unexpectedly, that man attacked us from behind while we were fighting! The three of them worked together to subdue us, and then wanted to take us away."

The sky-high resentment made Li Zhirui frown.

During this period, the two of them never gave up their struggle. As a result, they were severely tortured by the three monks. If not for the last chance to escape with only one person guarding them.

But they were discovered as soon as they left the city gate and were chased all the way. By this time, the two of them were already at the end of their game. If their spirit beasts hadn't desperately escaped, they wouldn't even know if they were still alive!

"Are you sure those three are monks? Not demon cultivators?" Li Zhirui asked with a frown.

Judging from the fact that they captured Cheng Huo and Cheng Hua but didn't kill anyone to seize the treasure, I'm afraid they wanted something else.

And those who want something from the monks themselves are either demonic cultivators, evil cultivators and the like, or monsters.

Li Zhirui asked the demon cultivator directly because the aura of the monster beast was relatively obvious, so it was impossible for them not to see the clues and step forward to save people.

"No! They are monks!" Li Chenghao said with certainty.

Li Chenghua on the side also nodded in agreement, "Uncle Jiu, we have been together for a few days, and you will never get it wrong!"

Hearing this, Li Zhirui's expression became much more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Is it possible that a Nascent Soul monk has become possessed by the devil? Are you planning to use the two of you to practice magic?"

If this is the case, it would explain why it was the monks who captured them, and why they were tortured instead of killed directly.

Because many demonic techniques require souls full of resentment and hatred to increase their cultivation.

"Do you still remember their faces?"

Although there is a high probability that they are using fake looks, it is at least a clue.

After a while, the two of them sketched the appearance of the three monks.

"You should take good care of your injuries. The family helped you to express your anger."

Even so, they all knew in their hearts that the hope of catching those three people was still relatively slim.

Li Zhirui asked Li Wenli to copy these three portraits and distribute them to every tribesman stationed outside, so that more casual cultivators would know about them.

And directly announced his guess, trying to find the three monks with the help of everyone.

"Do you think the Yuanying monks who practice magic skills mentioned by the Li family really exist?" A certain casual cultivator looked around and then said.

The few casual cultivators around them were not fools, and they discussed carefully: "You mean, the Li family is using excuses to exclude dissidents?"
