Chapter 86 Prelude to the War

When Li Xiangping arrived at Lichuankou, the battle had come to an end. Ah Huila was particularly prominent in the battle formation, wielding a sledgehammer to chase the enemy's defeated troops.

In the past few years, troops from Shanyue broke out one after another and crossed the border. Ahuila was called to Lichuankou by Li Xiangping to convince the tribesmen he was familiar with. He was brave in various battles and was admired by the tribesmen. Li Xiangping also I feel quite relieved about it.

"Is this the first wave of mountain climbing this year?"

Li Xiangping frowned and looked at the mountains in the distance, feeling uneasy and asked in a low voice.

"Go home, Lord! It's the sixth wave!"

Li Qiuyang on the side replied in a deep voice, looking like he was travel-stained. He must have just arrived.

Li Qiuyang is now at the fourth level of Fetal Breathing. He is married to a daughter of the Chen family and has a son and a daughter. He seems to have matured a lot.

Li Xiangping nodded, turned around and entered the yard, leaving a message to Li Qiuyang:

"After cleaning up, let Ah Huila come to see me."

————

Li Xiangping put down the talisman pen in his hand and looked at the cloth on the table quietly. He had broken through the fifth level of the Fetal Breath Jade Wheel a few years ago. Now he is at the peak of the Fetal Breath and can draw talismans long ago.

Li Jingtian was filling the lamp in the house. The girl was now twelve years old. She had grown up quickly and had nimble hands and feet. She had become slim and graceful.

Each of the three surviving brothers of the Li family used one of Lu Jiangxian's six talismans, and the remaining two were used on Li Xuanxuan and Li Xuanfeng. The last one was naturally reserved for Li Tongya's room.

"Master! Ah Huila wants to see you!"

Chen Donghe was dressed in leather armor and had a sword hanging on his waist. He walked into the courtyard vigorously. His eyes lingered on the side of Li Jingtian's face by the window for a moment, and he lowered his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

The young man appears to be seventeen or eighteen years old. His cultivation has reached the third level of fetal breath. He is quite handsome and looks a bit like Chen Erniu.

"Come in."

Ah Huila had all the animal teeth hanging on his head removed and replaced them with fur clothes like those from Lijing Town. He entered the yard and said loudly:

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something bad is going to happen!"

Behind him, Chen Donghe twitched the corner of his mouth and resisted the urge to slap the guy on the back of the head. He secretly lowered his head and used Ah Huila's huge body to block Li Xiangping's gaze and looked at Li Jingtian with his peripheral vision.

Li Jingtian was cutting wicks by the window, and the yellowish light danced slightly on the side of her face. Her beauty was not delicate and small, but a clean and neat beauty. Her facial features were full of heroic spirit. Only her eyes inherited Tian Yun's beauty. It's round, but looks a little cute.

"What's the matter?"

Li Xiangping looked down at Li Jingtian who was concentrating on lighting the candle by the window. The corner of his mouth curled up, and he felt funny in his heart. Spiritual consciousness was born after breaking through the fifth level of the Jade Wheel of Fetal Breath. He didn't even need to pay attention to the things in the yard. You’ll know just by looking.

"My old brother crossed the Big Fish River and came to inform me last night... saying... that Naga Nixi has defeated the enemy army and will be able to advance eastward soon!"

Ah Huila's words immediately stirred up a stir. Both Li Xiangping and Chen Donghe were shocked. Even Li Jingtian by the window turned his head slightly and listened carefully with concern.

"How is Naga Nixi's current strength?"

Li Xiangping frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Na Hui lowered his head and replied dully:

"In the middle stage of Qi training, Jiani Xiying integrated the entire northern foot of Lishan Mountain with 100,000 mountains, and should have dispatched five or six thousand soldiers and horses. Now there are four Qi training period people who have swallowed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to obey his orders. , as for the generals in the Feixi Realm, there should be dozens of them, but fortunately these people are stationed in various places in the northern foothills and have never accompanied the army."

As soon as he said this, Li Xiangping paused for a moment, frowned and said in a deep voice:

"My Li family pays tribute to the Qingchi Sect every year. We are a family under the rule of the Qingchi Sect. Jia Nixi is just a mountain crosser who only wreaks havoc in the northern foothills. How dare he invade the east wantonly? Do you really think that the Qingchi Sect is dead? "

Ah Huila quickly knelt down, pressed his head tightly to the ground, and said tremblingly:

"According to the tribesmen who escaped from the west, the Demon Sect... Qingchi Sect will not care..."

Li Xiangping lowered his head, feeling helpless anger rising in his heart. Even Shanyue's pawns knew that the Qingchi Sect would not take action. As the patriarch of the family under the Qingchi Sect, he had no idea what kind of deal the two parties had reached.

"You go down first..."

Ah Huila and Chen Donghe hurriedly left. Seeing that they had gone out, Li Xiangping slowly sat back on the main seat, closing his eyes and saying nothing.

"Father."

However, Li Jingtian called out in a low voice, approached Li Xiangping and bowed gently, saying softly:

"My family is afraid of becoming a victim of others, so we should make plans in advance."

Li Xiangping raised his eyebrows tiredly and said in a deep voice:

"go on."

Li Jingtian lowered his eyebrows and said softly:

"Janixi dares to march eastward wantonly. It must be that the Qingchi Sect and the great shaman of the Shanyue clan have reached a consensus to hand over the territory and mortals, but did not notify my Li family because they don't want my Li family to react..."

"What you mean is that my entire Li family has become goods for delivery."

Li Xiangping raised his eyebrows and lowered his head to look at his eldest daughter.

"In my daughter's opinion, my Li family is in danger of losing money and people this time, but there is no danger of annihilation of the clan."

"Father Ji is still in the sect, and my Li family has become involved with the Xiao family. The Qingchi sect should not abandon my family silently. It must be that it only allows the Shanyue clan to enter and plunder, rather than burying my entire Li family. "

Li Jingtian raised his eyebrows, raised his head to look at Li Xiangping, and replied softly:

"The Qingike Sect interacts with various branches of the Shanyue territory, and there are many families involved. Since the Qingike Sect has reached a deal, it has no choice but to pretend that Shanyue enters the country without knowing it, and each family relies on their own ability to protect themselves."

After listening to Li Jingtian's words, Li Xiangping put away the wooden slips in his hands, raised his head and said:

"How do you think our Li family should respond?"

"I abandoned the people under my rule and took refuge with my family. The plunderers from Shanyue will never stay here. They can return to Lijing Mountain in one day at most."

Li Jingtian stared at Li Xiangping and spoke tentatively.

"No!"

Seeing Li Xiangping shaking his head resolutely, a smile suddenly broke out on Li Jingtian's face, making her round eyes look even cuter.

"If this is the case, there will be no difference between our Li family and the Qingchi Sect!"

Li Xiangping shook his head, looking a little tired. When Li Jingtian opened her mouth again, he waved his hand to interrupt her and said in a deep voice:

"I understand, I'll go back to Lijing Mountain first."

Li Jingtian nodded obediently and left, while Li Xiangping slowly walked out of the yard with his hands behind his back, looking at the mountains and forests under the moonlight.

He felt a strong premonition welling up in his heart. This Jia Nixi was the most powerful opponent he had encountered in so many years. This young man Shan Yue not only possessed a keen sense of war, a cunning mind, but also overwhelming strength.

"What kind of bottom line did the Qingchi Sect draw for Shanyue, and how much time did it give you..."
