Chapter 541 The Eve (Part 2)

Li Xizhi rested for a moment, and the cloud boat under his feet was already moving. A person approached outside the door. He was in the late stage of Qi training. His face was white and beardless, his hair was white, and his expression was very graceful. Only one of his sleeves was empty. He stopped beside Li Xizhi. .

He cupped his hands and whispered:

"Fei Yihe, I have met the young master."

His name sounded familiar to Li Xizhi. He should be the Fei family who went there with him back then. Thanks to Li Xuanfeng's care in the past few years, although his body was covered with scars, he still had a life left.

Li Xizhi returned the greeting and said softly:

"Xi Zhi has met senior."

He remembered his uncle Li Yuanqin in southern Xinjiang. He must be younger than himself. He didn't know what he looked like now, so he asked immediately:

"I wonder if my brother-in-law has come... I still need to meet him..."

Fei Yihe shook his head and replied:

"The young master was sent to the sect to practice with the children of the Chi family."

As soon as he said this, Li Xizhi's heart became as clear as a mirror, and he sighed secretly. Fei Yihe looked anxious, sat down next to him, and asked:

"I have been in southern Xinjiang for many years. I have been in seclusion many times in the past few days. The general went to the East China Sea again. I only heard a few words from the Fei family. I dare to ask the peak master... what is going on in my clan? Tong Yu, Tong Xiao... what kind of cultivators are they? for?"

Li Xizhi nodded slightly and replied:

"Master Tongyu is now in charge of the family. He has no contact with my family. I don't know much about him. I only heard that Master Tongxiao failed to break through, died, and even had no heirs."

The news seemed to be almost as expected by the old man. He did not feel any shock. He only heard the news of his death. The fingers on his knees jumped and he said in a panic:

"Oh, I know that boy."

Li Xizhi told him all the news he knew one by one. Fei Yihe nodded his thanks repeatedly and could not say anything more. He sat upright in his seat and remained silent for most of the process with his sleeves rolled up.

The Xiaguangyun ship was moving at an extremely fast speed. It had just passed by for a while, and it gradually started to show signs of docking. Fei Yihe shook off his sleeves, revealed his hands that were turning white, took out a small letter he had already written, and replied:

"If there is an opportunity, please ask the Peak Master to send a letter to Fei's family on my behalf..."

Fei Yihe always asked Li Xuanfeng to bring letters to him when he came home these years. Now there are three letters instead of five. What changes have happened to the Fei family? The old man kept chattering and copied it accurately. Although he never opened it to read it, outsiders could clearly see his heart.

Li Xizhi saw it clearly, sighed secretly, put it away, and replied:

"If I have the chance, I will definitely send it to you for senior."

Fei Yihe nodded and watched the cloud boat gradually stop. Finally he couldn't hold it anymore and whispered:

"If one day... the Fei family collapses... if it can be replaced, please leave a trace of blood..."

Li Xizhi did not dare to respond to him, so he could only say tactfully:

"With fellow Taoist Qingyi practicing in Yuanwu, the nobles will definitely be able to turn danger into safety, and the elders will also take care of them. Seniors, don't worry..."

Fei Yihe nodded and said nothing. After a long time, he saw Li Xuanfeng step in. The gold armor on his body had been taken off. He said softly:

"Xiji is here."

Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly:

"I will first settle in the Xu Kingdom and meet the people of the Jin Yu Sect."

Li Xizhi went out with him, and when they reached the bow of the ship, there was a slight breeze blowing around, and they had crossed the river that divided the north and south. The waves were rolling and the water was mighty.

After crossing the river, the spiritual atmosphere became completely different. The surroundings were gray and yellow, the earth was dry and cracked, bones were scattered on the ground, and blood and resentment echoed everywhere.

Several streaks of escaping light flashed across the sky, and when they saw the glowing cloud boats emerging, they all turned back. These people seemed to be very experienced. After flying for a while, they immediately fell into the ground and disappeared in the gray smoke.

Li Xizhi looked at it for a while and then asked aloud:

"Uncle, does he know...how to arrange the recruitment of various families?"

Li Xuanfeng's armor actually lost its aura when the two True Lords Lushui and Taiyuan took action. It was no different from just a few pieces of metal hanging on it. It would take a lot of trouble to repair it.

He came back for a short time, so he never repaired it and had already put it away. After listening to Li Xizhi's words, he replied:

"Of course it cannot be under our control. When the time comes, cloud ships will arrive everywhere to recruit monks. According to what the sect said..."

Li Xuanfeng paused and replied:

"Forty to fifty percent of the monks from the aristocratic families should be mobilized to go to Bianyan Mountain, just as a precaution. If the battle becomes fierce, they will be mobilized again..."

Li Xizhi listened silently and said softly:

"If the clan cultivators do not reach 40 to 50%, it will really break the bones... I was still thinking about how many cultivators from the clan would be sent, but now that I see it, I am afraid that I will not be able to escape."

"good."

Li Xuanfeng stood quietly for a long time before saying:

"There are no eyes for swords and guns in the mountains, but for the small tribe, there are endless opportunities. The treasures and magic weapons that are usually not available can be found today by looking for two corpses. The chaos is also a good opportunity."

The two chatted for a while, and then several people came forward. Li Xizhi took a closer look and saw that the person leading the way was wearing a dazzling robe, and it was his uncle Yang Ruizao.

Yang Ruizao had just found a few Taoist friends he had good relations with on the boat. The Ji Zhu people were following behind him, and they respectfully said to Li Xuanfeng:

"I've been waiting for you, senior!"

Li Xuanfeng nodded and asked their names one by one. Yang Ruizao came closer and the three of them stood at the bow of the ship. It was considered that the words on the ship were unified, with Li Xuanfeng as the leader.

Yang Ruizao winked at Li Xizhi and spoke in a low voice with a helpless tone:

"Xi Zhi has met all the juniors in my family, right? How about it?"

Li Xizhi nodded with a smile and replied:

"Very polite and calm."

Yang Ruizao understood the good words and said with a sigh:

"I just hope it can be changed."

While the two were talking, Bian Yan Mountain slowly appeared in front of their eyes. This mountain is located in the middle of the twenty-three cities in the southern part of Xu State. It is very convenient for all parties to rush to help. It is filled with white mist and has a faint smell.

Several juniors were talking, but Li Xuanfeng was a little lost in thought. He still clearly remembered this mountain range and the [Zhenhui Temple] on the mountain. Back then, he and his father came here to catch the wolf monster, but now it should be reduced to ruins...

"Xuanling..."

His brother's name rang in his heart, his face was expressionless, only Li Xizhi behind him looked at it with a low glance.

…

Qingdu Mountain.

When Li Xuanfeng and others arrived in the north, another rosy cloud boat landed in Wangyue Lake. It was still the color of rays of sunshine. Now it settled in dense forest mountain. Every family on the lake hurriedly sent people over.

A group of monks were rising and falling on the dense forest mountain. Li Xijun stood on the jade platform on the top of the mountain, looking at the rays of light falling quietly in front of him, a little complicated.

"Really speaking... this is the first time my family has received Yun Chuan. Although it is unexpected... he is still a representative who can talk about everything."

He waited on the stage for a moment. Chen Donghe and An Junyan beside him were both in the late stage of Qi training. On the other side, An Siming and An Siwei were also in the late stage of Qi training. The two brothers had just returned from the desert. Looks dusty.

Li Xijun's calculations were good back then. Now, there are only seven late-stage qi-training monks from the prominent Li family and his own family, and three of them are people named An. There are still descendants of these two brothers who have made breakthroughs in qi-training this year... The An family's bloodline is extremely rare. , is something everyone knows.

But after all, there was no foundation building, and the two brothers were definitely loyal. They always said the same thing and never complained, so Li Xijun was relieved.

The two surnames Chen and An are the most powerful. Behind them are the Tian, ​​Dou, and Xu families. Further back, Di Li Youjie from Beishan Yue, Li Jiman, and Mo Moli from Dongshan Yue stand in the corner. , as for the descendants and nobles placed in Shanyue, they are not even qualified to take office.

Huo Moli is also an old man in the clan. He was the first Yue King of Dongshan who came to power after joining the Li family. He practiced thunder magic and even met Li Tongya.

The thunder method shortens the lifespan, and Lao Shanyue's cultivation is not righteous, so he ages very quickly, with half-squinted eyes behind his back and does not speak.

Now, except for Li Fei's family, there are only a few small clans on the east bank and north bank left on the lake. They all bowed respectfully to the Li family first. The Fei family was also nearby, looking uneasy.

Everyone waited for a while, and then a man in white flew down from the Xia Guang Yun Ship. He got off the cloud ship, smiled slightly, and showed a jade seal.

He opened his lips and teeth slightly and said:

"According to the order of the inner immortal of the sect, the period of governance of Yuanwu Peak has expired. Wangyue Lake and the Li Xia families on the east bank of Wangyue Lake will be under my control under Yuehu Peak!"

Everyone bowed with a roar and said in unison:

"I've seen the Immortal Sect's envoy!"

'good! It is indeed Moon Lake Peak! ’

Li Xijun responded, but he heard a lot of secrets in his heart. Since the Xiao family became independent and took away most of Lixia County, the land of Lixia has been incomplete. Now listening to what this person said, these boundaries If you dig it out, it will all be attached to Wangyue Lake.

This matter is neither big nor small. Although Wangyue Lake is bigger, it is not good news. After all, the Xiao family is nearby, so these things naturally belong to his family and cannot be touched.

While Li Xijun was thinking, he never thought that the monk in white clothes would come down from the clouds, come to help him with a smile, and said in a very gentle tone:

"Master has broken through seclusion and cannot come in person. I am the leader of Yuehu Peak, Zhao Tinggui, who is here to replace Master... Xijun, you're welcome!"

The master of Moon Lake Peak who is in retreat is naturally referring to Ning Wan. The relationship between the two families is indeed close. Zhao Tinggui also had a very low-key attitude and asked him to get up with a smile.

Li Xijun did not dare to be careless and returned the gift. Zhao Tinggui then returned to Yunshang and said softly:

"I came here this time in response to an order from the sect to recruit monks."

He gradually put away his smile, but his attitude was still very polite. He looked at the surrounding tribes and said softly:

"The purpose of recruiting troops and horses this time is to ask me to guard the places designated by Yuehu Peak. It is related to the merits and lives of Tinggui and the brothers in the peak. Please don't give me any trouble."

He paused and said softly:

"When I note which family's disciples are too unbearable, I will come back in a few months to recruit them, but they will kill people."

Zhao Tinggui looked like a handsome young man, but his tone was not calm. He scared the heads of several surrounding family clans to look at each other, and they all dared not speak. Zhao Tinggui continued:

"If the disciples in the clan perform outstanding meritorious service, Zhonghui will not be stingy with rewards. What's more, there are many opportunities on the battlefield, so you must bring out the most capable disciples."

Li Xijun looked at the scene in front of him. It seemed that Zhao Tinggui was warning the Zhu family, but it was not for him to tell Li Xijun. Although the two families were close, matters related to wealth and life could not be easily fooled. of.

Just then he thought about it, when a group of Tsing Yi disciples came down from the Yunzhou ship. Zhao Tinggui waved his hands and said softly:

"Each of you brought someone with you."

He then looked at Li Xijun, came forward very politely, stretched out his jade-white palm, and said with a smile:

"Xijun... you and I will discuss this carefully."

The two of them fell into the peak together and sat down in the white jade hall. After saying a few words of greeting, Zhao Ting returned and said innocently:

"I wonder how many of the nobles can spare their hands to build foundations?"

Li Xijun sighed and said softly:

"Zhang Gui must also know...my elders and brothers must have gone to the north..."

Zhao Tinggui couldn't let him do whatever he wanted, and thought to himself:

"Li Xuanfeng and Li Xizhi have done their best, but they are not guarding Yuehu Peak! If I can win these two, I don't have to think too much and just lie in peace in the sect... Why do I need to make a special trip... "

He waved his hands quickly, looked very solemn, and said in a deep voice:

"Xi Jun is a smart man, and the relationship between the two families is here, so I won't go around in circles with you."

Zhao Tinggui put the tea cup down gently:

"Senior Qinghong must take action... I don't know about others. She may be comparable to my direct lineage from the peak, and she is from the Thunder Dao lineage, so she is suitable for guarding."

Li Xijun pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. Zhao Tinggui took a silent breath and said softly:

"We need one person in the middle stage of foundation building and one in the early stage of foundation building to establish a firm foothold first."

Zhao Tinggui had already calculated in his mind that Li Ximing of the Li family was probably in the middle stage of foundation building and a rare alchemist. If he could be brought to the north, many casualties could be reduced...

Li Xijun pondered for a moment and replied:

"Your Majesty, I have an ancient Buddhist monk in my family who is a mage. He is more than enough to compete with a mid-stage Foundation Establishment. There is also a mid-stage Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator... Although he has no heels or spells, he can still compete with him. The last one is in the early stage of foundation building."

Zhao Tinggui was surprised for a moment, frowned and said:

"I don't know, fellow Taoist Ximing..."

"He has broken through in seclusion and will not be able to come out in a short time..."

Li Xijun declined. Zhao Tinggui sighed and could only say:

"But let's not rush yet. According to what my dear brother said, if the front line is tight, I'm afraid we will have to take action from fellow Taoist Xi Ming. If it really comes to a critical juncture, we may even have to trouble Xi Jun..."

‘This is agreed. ’

Li Xijun nodded and said politely:

"It's natural."

Zhao Ting responded and hesitated:

"As for the monks who practice pneumatic breathing, the Ning family has been placed elsewhere, and the main force still depends on the nobles..."

Although Li Xijun had already had a premonition, he still felt uneasy in his heart and thought to himself:

"The Chi family really makes the best use of everything..."

The Li family definitely has a lot of low-level monks among all the families, especially they are quite lenient towards outsiders and open up their skills. Li Xijun thought he was Chi Zhiyun and he would definitely be moved, so he only asked:

"I wonder how many monks are needed?"

Zhao Tinggui said awkwardly:

"The five in the late stage of Qi training, the seven in the middle stage of Qi training, the twenty-seven in the early stage of Qi training, and the one hundred fetal breath monks...all must be righteous..."

"What?!"
