Chapter 2330 An old friend comes to visit

Penglai City, inside the city lord’s palace!

City Lord Li Qingyun was like an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth in the meeting hall. He had no intention of paying attention to his son Li Liangji who had been kneeling in the hall for a long time!

In addition to the father and son in the main hall, sitting on both sides were a group of high-ranking officials from the Li family in Penglai City. The weakest ones were those who had reached the perfect state of the late emperor level.

It can be seen that one of the reasons why this branch of the Li family is able to take charge of Penglai City is that its strength cannot be underestimated!

"Qingyun! In addition to paying attention to the cultivation talents of the children in the clan, you must also strictly discipline them! A situation like today must not happen again, otherwise the Li family's face will be lost!" In the main hall! , an old man couldn't help but said a serious lesson.

"What the uncle said is true!" Li Qingyun had to stop and then bowed respectfully: "It was Qingyun who was too negligent in discipline, which led to Liangji being arrogant in Penglai City. In the end, even Xuantian Dragon Lord was offended. If it weren't for If you don't care about the faults of small people, I'm afraid your life will be in danger long ago!"

"Yeah!" The old man nodded with emotion: "I have long heard all kinds of legends about Xuantian Dragon Lord's past. One of them is that he once publicly taught a certain dude from the Tang Dynasty Kingdom a lesson in his early years. In the end, not only did he not Killing the other party actually awakened the dandy boy of the Tang Dynasty, causing him to repent and successfully break through the bottleneck of his cultivation, creating a well-known story!"

"Qingyun has also heard of this legend!" Li Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up and said: "What the uncle means is... I can take advantage of this matter..."

He didn't fully explain what he said, but looked expectantly at his precious son who was still kneeling on the ground, looking a little depressed.

To be honest, who doesn’t want his son to be a dragon among men? !

Although Li Qingyun hated him a little, he still attached great importance to his precious son, who had the most outstanding spiritual talent. Naturally, he also hoped that he would not sink because of this incident, but would instead become more mature because of the spur of this incident.

"Beast! Did you hear the meaning behind my great uncle's words?!" Li Qingyun couldn't help but yell at his precious son as he thought.

Li Liangji's figure as he knelt on the ground shook slightly, and then he slowly woke up from his sluggish state. He had been in a state of confusion and confusion before.

"I don't know what that means...father, please clarify!" Li Liangji, who was still a little confused in his head, hurriedly failed to understand the meaning behind his uncle's previous words.

"You idiot!" Li Qingyun scolded angrily with some frustration: "Do you think Longzun Xuantian can often visit Penglai City in the future?! I finally came here with great difficulty, no matter whether I have formed a good relationship with you Or bad fate, it’s all a kind of fate, do you understand?!”

"This..." Li Liangji muttered, still a little confused: "If this is... a bad fate... I have already apologized to the child. Isn't that enough?!"

"Nonsense!" Li Qingyun cursed angrily with some hatred: "If just apologizing can solve the problem, why do you need to kneel here?!"

"It's because... the elders of the direct lineage from Penglai Immortal Island overseas are coming... and then the child has to apologize to those elders..." Li Liangji, who gradually regained his clarity, still failed to understand his father's good intentions.

"Alas!" Li Qingyun was so angry that his body was trembling slightly. After a long silence, he sighed: "Before, my father thought that as long as your cultivation talent was enough to defy heaven, it would be enough. Now it seems that your cultivation talent is enough to defy heaven." Oh my god, but my emotional intelligence is worrying!"

"Father, please make it clear!" Li Liangji seemed to sense his father's disappointment deep in his heart, and immediately asked with some urgency: "The child must remember his father's teachings!"

"That's all!" Li Qingyun waved his hands in frustration and said: "Everything is fate. Some fate cannot be obtained by the strong through unilateral efforts. Although your uncle's idea is very good, it is a pity that you don't have that kind of courage. Then repent and take the opportunity to break through the shackles of your own life!"

"..."

Li Liangji didn't know how to answer for a while, but everyone in the hall shook their heads and smiled bitterly. No one said a good word for him. In fact, everyone knew the guy in front of him with low emotional intelligence and some pride and complacency.

"That's it!" The old man obviously agreed with Li Qingyun's statement, and immediately shook his head and sighed: "Qingyun! Did the Penglai Immortal Island say when they would send people to come here?! Have they confirmed who will be sent there? Deal with this?!"

"They just asked us to wait here for news. As for who will be sent here..." Li Qingyun suddenly froze while he was explaining, and then turned around and looked in a certain direction outside the hall with a look of horror on his face.

At this moment, right where he was looking, there was a teleportation array dedicated to the Li clan in the city lord's palace. This teleportation array could only travel between Penglai City and Penglai Island, and had not interacted with the teleportation arrays of other forces. Establish a transport connection.

As if sensing something unusual about Li Qingyun, everyone in the hall followed his gaze. When they saw the identities of the figures that suddenly appeared on the teleportation array platform, they were all dumbfounded.

"Quick, come with me to greet the seniors from Penglai Immortal Island!" After a brief moment of astonishment, the old man in the palace woke up first, immediately stood up impatiently and rushed out of the gate.

"You evil beast! Why don't you go with your father to meet the seniors of Immortal Island!" Before Li Qingyun went out, he did not forget to order his precious son to accompany him.

Li Liangji, who had made a big mistake, didn't dare to complain at all. He could only follow his father with a low eyebrow and hurried towards the teleportation array in the mansion.

"Disciple Li Gantai! Meet all the immortals from Penglai Immortal Island!" In front of the teleportation array, Li Gantai led a group of clan members to salute the figures on the teleportation array, and everyone behind them bowed and saluted.

"Li Qiantai!" A clear and sweet voice sounded on the teleportation array platform. It was Li Shuang'er, the granddaughter of Li Hongliu whom Du Long had met at the Tiandi battlefield. He saw her eyebrows slightly frowning and said: "It seems that you are a branch of the army. The people have been domineering in Penglai City for too long, and today they even dare to offend the Eastern God of War Xuantian Longzun?!"

"This..." Li Qiantai obviously did not expect that the visitor would directly give them a blow. He was stunned for a moment. If the other party was charged with this crime, it would be serious.

At this moment, there were only two people standing next to Li Shuang'er. One of them, a man with a long sword on his back, was handsome and handsome, and he had an intimidating aura with a restrained sword edge.

As for the other figure, there is a beautiful woman holding a lotus pod. These two people are clearly the famous Sword Immortal Lu Dongbin and He Xiangu, the Fairy in the Lotus.

With these two powerful men in the realm of gods standing behind them, even if Li Shuang'er does not have the status of a direct descendant of the Li clan, it is enough to make the collateral clan members of Penglai City drink a pot.

"Miss Shuang'er!" Li Qingyun, as the lord of Penglai City, could only bite the bullet and said: "It's only because Qingyun, as the lord of a city, neglected to discipline Liangji, an evil beast, that he offended Master Xuantian Longzun. , Qingyun is willing to bear all the blame for the crime, but for the current plan, we must first appease the four members of Xuantian Longzun’s family!”

"That's alright!" Li Shuang'er then waved her hand and said, "I have to meet that Du Long guy first and apologize by the way. I had invited him to my home as a guest earlier, but I never thought he would come to my doorstep. , but have to be humiliated by the unworthy descendants of the clan?! It really puts our Li clan to shame!!"

Before Li Qingyun and others could continue to speak, Li Shuang'er, Lu Dongbin and He Xiangu flew to Penglai Pavilion hand in hand. The entire Penglai City was considered the territory of the Eight Immortals, and they did not need Li Qingyun and others to lead the way.

All the Li clan members of Penglai City could only lead the dejected Li Liangji and quickly flew towards Penglai Pavilion, following closely behind Li Shuang'er and the others.

"You all are waiting here!" Outside Penglai Pavilion, Li Shuang'er told Li Qingyun and others with a cold face: "Don't disturb the dining enjoyment of the distinguished guests of the Li family! And Li Liangji, just kneel outside the gate! When will you get Xuan Only with Tianlong Zun’s understanding can you get up!”

"yes!"

All the Li clan members blushed and nodded in agreement. Li Liangji could only kneel obediently outside the gate of Penglai Pavilion under his father's scolding.

Penglai Pavilion is located on the picturesque coast. It is also the most prosperous neighborhood in Penglai City. Outside Penglai Pavilion, there is a lively scene of people coming and going every day.

Li Liangji knelt outside the gate of Penglai Pavilion, and was soon surrounded by many curious spectators. Many people immediately recognized his identity and started pointing and talking behind his back.

"Look! Isn't that Li Liangji, the young lord of Penglai City?!"

"Isn't he the proud eldest son of the Li family?! According to legend, he is now at the peak of the emperor's level of combat power. Who did he offend?! He was actually punished to kneel outside the gate of Penglai Pavilion?!"

"Haha! I just came out from Penglai Pavilion for dinner. The young city lord of Penglai City is usually arrogant and domineering. Today he kicked a big iron plate!"

"Who has he offended?! You must know that the Li clan in Penglai City is a side clan of the Li clan in Penglai Immortal Island. Even if he offends a powerful person in the divine realm, there is no need to kneel down in public to apologize like this. ?!”

"Hehe! What City Master Li Shao offended this time was not an ordinary powerful person in the God Realm. He was a terrifying figure who had single-handedly killed a large number of powerful people in the Western Most Powerful King Realm!"

"Single-handedly killed a large number of Western strongest kings?! Could it be that... he has offended the Eastern God of War Xuantian Longzun?!"

"Of course! This is what I witnessed with my own eyes, so there is no lie at all. The Young City Master of the Li family has kneeled down to apologize to Xuantian Dragon Lord in person before, but never thought that this matter is not over yet?!"

"How can this be done so easily?! If it only offends an ordinary powerful person in the God Realm, that would be the end of it, but the one offended is Xuantian Dragon Master, the Eastern God of War!"

"Yes! It's true that if you don't seek death, you won't die. The eldest son of the Li family does act too high-profile in Penglai City on weekdays. If Dragon Lord Xuantian hadn't been merciful today, he would have died a long time ago, right?! "

"..."

Li Liangji knelt outside the gate of Penglai Pavilion with an ashen face. From time to time, whispers could be heard in his ears. At this moment, his head felt like it was numb, and he felt no other feeling except shame.

Not far away, Li Qingyun and a group of tribesmen stood there quietly. Their faces were all very ugly, but they did not dare to show off and could only silently endure the extremely embarrassing situation in front of them.

It's no one's fault that they have endured such humiliation today. If not, it's their fault that they didn't discipline the clan's children harshly enough. Otherwise, they wouldn't have incurred today's humiliation.

‘Evil beast! Think carefully about how you are arrogant and domineering in your daily life, and then look back and feel the shame you have endured today. You must understand that you have brought all this on yourself, and you must use this matter to reflect on your own heart, instead of being willing to sink because of it. ! ’

‘I heard you say before becoming a father that you admire powerful men like Xuantian Longzun very much in your heart, and you have also done in-depth research and understanding of Xuantian Longzun’s growth experience! ’

‘In this case, then you should carefully understand that Xuantian Longzun was also a playboy when he was young, but why did he regret it later? ! ’

'Taking this opportunity, my father hopes that you will not sink forever because of this setback. You should take the opportunity to correct your biggest problem, and from now on strengthen your Taoism and work hard to move forward! ’

Li Liangji was still kneeling there, his father's teachings constantly ringing in his mind. His body was trembling slightly, not because of fear, but because he was repenting for his wrong actions over the years.

Li Qingyun felt the violent mood swings in his precious son, and he couldn't help but reveal a complicated expression of expectation and worry. As a father, he hoped that his son would succeed, but he was also worried that he would retreat instead of making progress!

In the end, Li Qingyun did not say too many truths. He believed that although his precious son did not have a high emotional intelligence, he was not a truly stupid person and should be able to get out of the confusion on his own.

Just as the secret communication between the father and son ended, in Penglai Pavilion, Li Shuang'er finally brought Lu Dongbin and He Xiangu to the box where Du Long was.

Perhaps to show respect, the three of them did not fly in directly from the window, but chose to take the main door stairs all the way to the box door.

"Brother Du Long! You are so mean! You came to Penglai City with your wife and your beloved, but you didn't even contact Shuang'er. Is it because you didn't bother to talk to Shuang'er after you reached the realm of the most powerful Buddha? Have you contacted such an emperor-level little person?!" Outside the box door, Li Shuang'er's opening remarks were playfully offensive.

For a moment, not only Du Long and others in the box, but also Lu He and others who were following Li Shuang'er were dumbfounded. This princess of the Li family really dared to tell any joke!
