Chapter 495 Breakup

Qingdu Mountain.

There was finally an owner in the hall that had been empty for a long time. The young man in white took a dozen letters and read them carefully. Li Yuexiang sat beside him and added a few words to him from time to time.

Li Xijun had just made a breakthrough. He spent a few days stabilizing his cultivation. He quickly left the cave to clean up his family affairs. He took the letter he handed over and read it carefully to learn about the family affairs. He raised his eyebrows in surprise:

"Yuan Hudu, there is something about this man."

According to the information obtained, the Yuan family has stabilized and is in the hands of the second elder Yuan Hudu. This is not surprising. What is strange is that Yuan Hudu actually put all the opponents in the coup away and placed them back in various places. Except for the few people he injured when he attacked, Qiu Qiu didn't make any mistakes, not even a few heads were lost.

"How dare he!"

This has indeed preserved the strength of the Yuan family, but his seizure of the position of head of the family that originally belonged to Yuan Huyuan is an indelible trace. How many of his own people are there? If he does not take this opportunity to clear out the dissenters , isn’t it like digging your own grave? Even though he had the support of the Chi family in the beginning, he should not be trusted like this.

What happened was completely beyond everyone's expectations. I'm afraid even Yuan Chengdun and Yuan Huyuan had not thought of it, let alone the surrounding families. After a fight between the Yuan family, only Yuan Huyuan was missing. People become suspicious.

"Nine times out of ten...it's the Chi family's intention, just watch."

There was suspicion on Li Xijun's face, as if he had some bad guesses, and he watched silently for a while. Li Xuanxuan watched quietly, with an inexplicable look on his old face:

"I remember meeting Yuan Huyuan when I was young. At that time, my ancestor had just built the foundation. He came to congratulate him and said some words."

"He said... he wanted to be the person who divided the food at the Qingchi table, not a meat dog... But now it seems that even the person who divided the food at the table is just a chess piece in the eyes of the Chi family. There is no marriage. how…"

Li Xijun said:

"There is no difference between people. In the final analysis, it comes down to whether there is a Zifu, or whether there is any remaining relationship with the Zifu... Xiang'er, continue talking."

Li Yuexiang nodded and continued to explain what happened recently, until he talked about Yuan Fuyao. Li Xijun frowned after listening to her, and suddenly stretched out his hand to stop her from continuing, and said softly:

"Have you observed carefully? Yuan Fuyao really knows nothing? Yuan Huyuan never sent anyone loyal to follow him?"

"No."

Li Yuexiang responded and hesitated:

"It's not like I know nothing, it's like I know a little bit, but I'm missing a lot."

When Li Xuanxuan heard this, he just paused for a moment and looked a little surprised. He couldn't help but ask Li Xijun:

"I didn't know what this person was thinking before. I thought that if Yuan Chengdun didn't send someone to follow this child, Yuan Huyuan didn't know how to send a reliable person to watch over him? Let him do his own thing here, he is just a half-grown child. , what can you understand..."

"oh?"

Li Xijun lowered his head, picked up a pen and marked a few words on the paper, paused for a few breaths, and said warmly:

"Yuan Chengdun trusted the wrong person and fell into Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Hudu's plan!"

"What?"

As soon as he said this, Li Yuexiang and Li Xuanxuan were shocked. They pondered silently. Li Xijun had some speculations and said softly:

"I'm afraid Yuan Tuan is hopeless."

Before he could speak, he saw someone coming up from below. He whispered something in his ear. Li Xijun said with a serious expression:

"Out?"

"Back to your lord, this young man claimed to be practicing in seclusion, but in fact he left the realm late at night and went south. Our people followed him silently for a while and did not dare to stop him, so we could only let him leave."

"I'm afraid he has returned to the Yuan family."

Li Xuanxuan was in the late stage of Qi training. How could he not hear these two mutterings? He looked unhappy and said:

"How could he act like this! He is not afraid of offending my family! Fortunately, this matter was agreed upon privately between the two families. Otherwise, if word spread, it would be thought that he had escaped from the engagement!"

Li Xijun put down the letter in his hand, leaned on the wooden chair, lowered his eyebrows, and said thoughtfully:

"If you let me see, as long as Yuan Chengdun is not confirmed to be dead, this boy from the Yuan family will have other ways of surviving if he offends my family. It is difficult to guarantee that Yuan Huyuan will bet on both ends and do some tricks."

Li Xuanxuan was a little confused. When he thought about it carefully, he saw Li Xijun taking a sip of tea carelessly and replied:

"Wait a moment, if Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Hu are of the same mind, and Yuan Chengdun trusts the wrong person, Yuan Huyuan will come to my house soon."

Li Yuexiang was thoughtful and whispered:

"Is the chaos in the Yuan family intentional?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion, and a jade court guard with clanging armor came up, he held his hands respectfully and said:

"Your Excellency, Yuan Huyuan of the Yuan family is asking for a visit."

Li Xijun laughed, looked at Li Xuanxuan, and said coldly:

"Sure enough, it was a lively fight between the direct lineage, Yuan Chengdun and his son were sacrificed to take care of the overall situation! The Yuan family wants to be separated from my family, Qingsui, and Yuan Tuan, so that they can be good dogs under the Chi family!"

Although the Yuan family in the Qingchi Sect is not as good as it is day by day, it is still quite powerful and maintains considerable autonomy. Yuan Licheng, who was enthroned at the time, was a disciple of Chi Buzi, which made the Yuan family prosperous for many years.

But now that Yuan Licheng has passed away and Chi Buzi has disappeared, the Yuan family has become the place where two sects are fighting each other, and they are about to become a vassal of the Chi family.

"It seems that Yuan Chengdun may have left someone and a letter to remind him, but they were all intercepted by Yuan Huyuan."

He smiled, showing his white teeth, and whispered:

"How can the Chi family's dog get along with the Xiao family's dog? It's just that the Chi family's order has to be obeyed. We have to make a clear distinction with all the families so that it can be known to the whole world. I am afraid that I will really offend my family and drive them out." Yuan Huyuan compromised and softened, what a plan! What a plan!"

Li Xuanxuan still didn't understand, so he thought about it and whispered:

"What you mean is...the Yuan family didn't even think about resisting. They had defected to the Chi family a long time ago. It was just a show to win the trust of others. Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Hu had already colluded. Yuan Chengdun originally He has good intentions, but Yuan Huyuan wants to use this matter to embarrass my family and please his superiors?"

Li Xijun narrowed his eyes and said:

"It's almost the same. My family has a good relationship with Ning and Xiao, and the Yuan family has become a dog. Naturally, we can't bet on both sides as before."

"One is whether we can find Yuan Tuan, and whether my family can be dragged into the water by him. If these two things can be ensured, the Yuan family will certainly want to be independent..."

"If my family refuses to get involved in this matter, this inexplicable marriage can still be a big show of breaking up with my family. Regardless of whether my family agrees or not, as long as word gets out that Yuan Fuyao regretted the marriage and fled, the two families can be completely separated. net."

He quickly made his assumptions clear and said softly:

"I'm afraid that he came to ask my uncle if he could help, and got a negative answer. Yuan Huyuan decided to surrender too late, and Yuan Chengdun's letter could no longer reach Yuan Fuyao. In any case, this person became the reason for the rupture between the two families. It’s the trigger.”

Li Xuanxuan felt sad and angry in his heart and said:

"Yuan Huyuan has met Father Zhong, and he thought he would have good relations with my family for generations. How could he end up like this? Even if the situation forces him, there is no need to resort to such means!"

He wanted to get up and go out, but was calmed down by Li Xijun. When he saw the young man, he said:

"I'll deal with him."

…

Yuan Huyuan looked very embarrassed when he came in, and his breath was weak, but he saw a handsome young man coming towards him. He was dressed in white and had Li Yuexiang by his side. He was stunned and said tentatively:

“I don’t know fellow Daoist Xuanxuan…”

"Senior, it's unfortunate that you are here. I am practicing in seclusion... I am Li Xijun, and Yue Xiang is the younger sister of this junior. I have met senior Huyuan."

Yuan Huyuan glanced at the young man's expression, and felt that it was more difficult to deal with than Li Xuanxuan, so he said hoarsely:

"Another foundation building. The nobles are really talented and admirable."

Li Xijun shook his head and said softly:

"Senior is ridiculous, I wonder why senior came here this time?"

Yuan Huyuan's face collapsed and he said sadly:

"I am alone... The Yuan family has fallen into the hands of my younger brother. He has devoted himself to the Chi family and has become a vassal of the Chi family... I'm afraid... he will do something stupid regardless of the friendship between the two families!"

"oh?"

Li Xijun said in surprise:

"But getting back the betrothal gift is a trivial matter."

As if he didn't know anything about it, he called the Yu Ting guard beside him and said softly:

"Go and invite Master Yuan."

Yuan Huyuan felt numbness in the soles of his feet and was about to speak. Unexpectedly, Li Xijun took his hand politely and said softly:

"Senior Yuan, the two families have been friends for several generations. Senior has met my ancestor! The congratulatory gift [Jiao Pan Ying] he sent is still the sword of my family! Who would let the other down..."

"Senior Yuan Huyuan's friendship is here. My sister can chat with him for some time..."

These words made Yuan Huyuan break out into a slight sweat on his forehead, and he said in a clear voice:

"Actually...I'm afraid..."

But he saw a jade court guard coming up in time, knelt down and shouted:

"My lord! Mr. Yuan has run away!"

"Ran?"

Li Xijun called out in surprise, looking completely unbelieving, and just smiled and said:

"How is it possible... to go and have a look in the farmland again..."

Yuan Huyuan's old face was already sweating, and he said sadly:

"Xi Jun... Xi Jun, don't look for me anymore! My brother has called me back! Let's forget about this matter! I can't help Miss Yuexiang!"

Li Xijun's expression suddenly changed, and after a few breaths passed, he asked quietly:

"Senior, you can just say so if you don't want to get married. Why embarrass my family like this!"

Yuan Huyuan was tormented in his heart and reluctantly raised his head to look at him. He glanced at Li Xijun and vaguely seemed to see the appearance of the middle-aged man in gray clothes. He suddenly couldn't even sit on the wooden chair under his butt.

He has met several generations of the Li family, and although no one can give him the feeling of Li Tongya, Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi back then, Li Xijun seemed to have seen through his calculations as if he were hiding in the snow, and he only lamented:

"I have lost my family. How can I control my brother? I'm afraid he will spread the word so as to break the friendship between our two families. Yuexiang... Yuexiang... I never expected such a result!"

The propaganda in these words is self-evident. The Yuan family wants to completely break with the Li family, just to describe this matter as regrets about the marriage. He raised his old face to look at Li Yuexiang, but met the pretty face with a smile.

He originally thought that Li Yuexiang would be angry or embarrassed, but he saw her Danfeng blinking slightly and speaking softly:

"It's okay, I'm okay, senior."

Although the voice sounded calm, Yuan Huyuan felt a chill rise, as if he heard the cold sword sound and the unfinished words in those eyes:

‘But that’s not necessarily the case in your home. ’

Yuan Huyuan couldn't say anything anymore. He silently took a step back and left the hall. He saw a woman in jade armor standing outside the hall holding a gun. She seemed to have been listening for a long time. She raised her almond-shaped eyes and said softly:

"I'll send senior out."

Yuan Huyuan's scalp was numb. He was just a foundation-building monk who relied on elixirs. His cultivation level was not as good as Li Qinghong's. If he really wanted to fight her, he didn't know how many rounds it would take. He just murmured:

"It turns out to be Qinghong."

Li Qinghong rode the wind with him and said softly:

"The nobles have no choice but to join the Chi family, but this method is too dirty, and the long-standing friendship between the two families... is not like this."

Yuan Huyuan sighed sadly, and Li Qinghong paused and continued:

"The nobles have tricked my family, Yuan Chengdun, and Qingsui Feng, and made my family break their trust with Yuan Chengdun. This can be regarded as breaking the friendship between the two families... But if the senior still has some affection for my family, he still hopes to spare Yuan Fuyao's life."

Having said this, Yuan Huyuan understood that his family's calculations had been revealed, and said softly:

"Yuan Fuyao will be fine. We are keeping a close eye on him, so please don't worry."

Li Qinghong clasped his fists and drove back with the thunder, leaving Yuan Huyuan to fly away alone. Recalling his decades of friendship with Li Yuanjiao and Li Xuanxuan, he felt discouraged and murmured:

"It's just...it's just that the Sword Immortal defeated Chi Zhiyun with a sword back then, and the Li family and the Xiao family were quarreling again. The Chi family has always been unhappy. How could I be allowed to maintain our old relationship! If I wasn't more ruthless, how could I stop the Chi family from making sarcastic comments! "

He looked at the horizon and felt empty in his heart. Recalling Li Yuexiang's words and smile, he felt scared again:

"Li Yuanjiao has the temperament of a venomous snake, and his daughter may not be much different... Why does it have to be the Li family!"

It was really up to Yuan Huyuan to choose. Among so many relatives and friends, he was the one who was least willing to offend the Li family, but he was in the middle of the waves and had no choice but to fly away.

…

Li Qinghong rode the wind back to the courtyard, where several people were sitting together. Li Xijun nodded gently. The aunt and nephew had not discussed it in advance, but they cooperated in a tacit understanding.

Li Xuanxuan said:

"I don't know what happened to Yuan Chengdun and Yuan Tuan. I'm afraid they won't be able to save themselves if they come back now... It's just that I promised Yuan Chengdun..."

"Yuan Fuyao is leaving, is it possible that we can still send people to capture him?"

Li Xijun waved his hand and replied:

"What's more, what Yuexiang promised was that Yuan Fuyao was willing to stay. Who would have thought that Yuan Huyuan would act like this? Yuan Chengdun himself couldn't even calculate it accurately... He is one of the best in cultivation, but how can he defeat such an old fox in terms of tactics."

He said softly:

"This person has nothing to do with my family from now on, no need to mention it again!"

Li Xijun looked back at his sister and sighed:

"I've only wronged you... The Yuan family is going to be separated from my family, so it's inevitable that I'll have to talk about these things, some gossip..."

Li Yuexiang smiled slightly, sat beside the case very demurely, shook his head and said:

"What's the point? Others will only laugh at him. The Yuan family repeats it. He, Yuan Fuyao, has no eyesight."
