Chapter 140 Retreat

Li Xuanfeng said goodbye to Liu Changdie, left some money for the little woman, and flew south along the Guli Road for a few hours. The mist-shrouded Lijing Mountain appeared in front of him under a pale golden light, and he settled on the top of the mountain. , facing the beaming Li Xuanxuan.

"Brother Xuan, what are you so happy about?"

When Li Xuanfeng saw Li Xuanxuan's face full of smiles, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and he asked with a smile.

"Father Zhong has obtained a sword, which contains a footwork inheritance from Lingyumen, called "Crossing the River Rapids Step". It is a third-level skill, so it is naturally a happy event."

Li Xuanxuan shook his head and smiled, handed over a jade slip, and then continued:

"Everyone in the family has read it and written it down. Father Zhong has been practicing in seclusion. Please read it quickly."

Li Xuanfeng took the jade slip with a smile, read it roughly with his spiritual sense, and said seriously:

"It just so happens that the Lu family is in charge of the Lu family and the An family. There is nothing to do at home. I am also planning to retreat and break through. I will take this jade slip away and give it to my brother at home."

Li Xuanxuan nodded in agreement, waved his hand to reassure him, and replied:

"This is a good thing. You can go into seclusion with peace of mind."

Li Xuanxuan and Chen Donghe both had fifth-level Jade Wheels, so there was no problem in looking after the house. Li Xuanfeng nodded, put away the jade slips, and rode the wind to Meichi Peak to enter the pass to practice.

Li Xuanxuan went down the mountain and saw Li Xuanling rushing up to greet him, saying repeatedly:

"Brother Xuan! People from the Yu family have arrived in front of the hospital and want to invite you to meet them."

"Not a Qi training monk?"

Li Xuanxuan frowned. Generally, when various families come to visit, the Qi Practitioners can just ask questions outside the formation. Only envoys or fetal breath disciples will invite people to come and report.

"It's a qi-training monk who came down on the wind. I just heard this person bluntly said not to alarm Uncle Tongya Clan, so I came up to report it."

Li Xuanxuan nodded, feeling confused. He straightened his clothes and walked for a while. When he entered the hospital, he saw a middle-aged man in a robe sitting on a chair, tapping the wooden armrest with his hands, looking uneasy. He looked majestic, at least he was in the middle stage of Qi training.

"Li Xuanxuan of the Li family has met his seniors."

Li Xuanxuan cupped his hands. The middle-aged man, who held a sword behind his back, also cupped his hands with a stiff expression. Seeing that it was not Li Tongya, he breathed a sigh of relief and replied:

"Yu Jia Yu Mu Jian."

Yu Mujian lost face in the competition on the boat and was scolded by Yu Xiaogui when he returned home. Just as the Yu family's market was about to open, Yu Xiaogui came to apologize to Li Tongya and invited the Li family to come. Watch the ceremony.

Yu Mujian felt very frustrated along the way. He was afraid of meeting Li Tongya and thought he was here to ask for the sword.

What a pity! What about being full of energy and what about being able to move freely? Yu Mujian was confused when he heard it. He didn’t understand even a single word. He consciously grasped the key points of swordsmanship in his heart, but he couldn’t understand anything. How could he have the face to see Li Tongya, so he had to leave. The process of the fetal breath monk arrived at the Li family.

When he asked Li Xuanling, he found out that Li Tongya had closed the door to thank guests and was practicing in seclusion. He felt light all over and thought happily:

"I wish God couldn't stand it any longer, so it wouldn't embarrass me anymore."

Unexpectedly, when Li Xuanxuan arrived and announced their names to each other, Li Xuanxuan looked suddenly enlightened and said with a smile:

"You are Senior Mu Jian!"

Yu Mujian was suddenly struck by lightning. Thinking that his face had been thrown to the other side of the lake, he suddenly said in a solemn voice:

"You also know me?"

Li Xuanxuan looked at Yu Mujian's face and immediately knew what he was thinking. He quickly changed the subject and said with a smile:

"Senior Tongya is my father-in-law Zhong. He told the juniors: Among the families in Huzhou, only Young Master Yu Mujian's swordsmanship can be called kendo. The rest are just chopping with their swords."

This was originally meant to be played in a playful way, but Yu Mujian, who was pure in heart, took it seriously. He looked delighted at the moment. Thinking of all the provocations he had made on the ship, he felt extremely guilty. He looked up to the sky and sighed:

"Li Tongya is a true gentleman! I am such a villain!"

Li Xuanxuan was stunned, unable to follow his thoughts. Yu Mujian sighed, handed the invitation to the ceremony in his hand to Li Xuanxuan, cupped his hand and said seriously:

"When senior comes out of confinement, Mu Jian will definitely come to apologize in person!"

After saying that, he waved his hands and left, still muttering words such as "vigor" and "freedom of retraction" in his mouth, and disappeared into the distance on the wind, leaving Li Xuanxuan and Li Xuanling looking at each other.

"This person..."

Li Xuanling was stunned and speechless. Li Xuanxuan was even a little confused and opened the invitation to read.

The Yu family had already informed the other families of the time on the ship, but they specially sent someone to the Li family to hand over the invitation, firstly to show their attention, and secondly to show their goodwill.

"Brother Qiuyang is prudent and his cultivation is just right. He won't make the Li family appear high-profile, so just send him."

After Li Xuan read out the invitation, he made up his mind and gave the order.

————

Time flies like water, and there has not been much at home in the past year. Li Xuanxuan practiced seriously while carefully observing the dynamics of various families. However, "Crossing the River Rapids Step" is mysterious and unfamiliar, and it takes more than a day or two to learn it.

Speaking of the talisman pen, Li Xuanxuan drew the talismans on the talisman paper smoothly. He has been practicing for more than ten years. The success rate of making talismans has finally paid off, and his family has gained an extra business.

The sunlight from the window slanted in, illuminating Li Yuanxiu's body with a golden glow. The boy was now four or five years old and had just finished school. He stood quietly in the sunshine and looked at his father.

Li Xuanxuan raised his head, looked at the child, and said with a smile:

"What's wrong?"

"Father, you haven't seen Jiao'er for a month."

Hearing Li Yuanxiu's words, Li Xuanxuan was slightly startled, frowned, and whispered suspiciously.

"Who taught you to say this?"

"No one."

Li Yuanxiu pursed his lips, seeming a little afraid of such a serious Li Xuanxuan, but still looked at him stubbornly with his head raised.

"good."

Li Xuanxuan looked back and nodded, picked him up and walked out the door, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

Li Xiangping died in Shanyue. Although the Li family didn't know the specific details, they also knew that the actions of Mu Jiaoman and Wu Shan were probably involved. However, in order to maintain the stability of the situation and not attract Wu Shan's attention, they had to let this person go.

When Mu Yalu came to marry, Li Tongya and Li Xuanxuan actually valued the ancient lineage of the Mulu family, so they played a chess piece. One day, there was a big change in Shanyue, and the Li family, who had the Mulu family's blood, could move westward and take control. The Shanyue tribe saves them a lot of trouble.

But as Mu Yalu is the sister of Mu Jiaoman, Li Xuanxuan doesn't say anything, but he has some grudges in his heart, and he also has unspeakable complex emotions towards Li Yuanjiao. Now when he heard what this child said, he secretly thought in his heart:

"No matter what, in order to maintain the stability of the family for a hundred years, we can't be too favourable."

When he reached the front of the courtyard, Li Xuanxuan gently put Li Yuanxiu down, and the child cheered and went in to find his brother. Not long after, he heard Mu Yalu's smiling voice:

"Xiu'er is here, sit here!"

Li Xuanxuan laughed and entered the yard. He saw Mu Yalu was startled for a moment and said quickly:

"The master of the house is here."

Li Yuanjiao held a wooden toy in his hand, looked up at him, and shouted:

"Father!"

"Um."

Li Xuanxuan nodded towards Mu Yalu and sat aside to watch the two children playing around. The sunshine at the foot of the mountain was even brighter. Li Yuanjiao smiled at Li Xuanxuan, and the golden sunshine shone on his face. It illuminated Li Yuanjiao's eyes slightly brown.

"Jiao'er, come here."

Li Xuanxuan's voice trembled slightly, and Mu Yalu on the side raised his head sharply and looked at him with a worried expression. When Li Yuanjiao came closer without knowing why, Li Xuanxuan picked up his face and looked at it, only to find that in the shadow There are no traces of brown at all.

Exhaling a breath, Li Xuanxuan stood up slowly, his eyes wandering, and said softly:

"There are still important things to deal with on the mountain, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, he stood up and left, leaving the two brothers Li Yuanjiao and Li Yuanxiu playing in the courtyard. Mu Yalu watched his leaving figure and sat in the corner without saying a word.
