Taoyuan Mountain, Li Family Hall.

All direct descendants of the Li family have gathered here. Except for Li Chengan, Li Chengping and his son who have returned to the academy, as well as Li Jinli, Li Shixian and Li Yang and his wife who have begun to practice, the people who can decide the right to speak of the Li family are all here. .

"Brother, could it be a trap set by the Zhao family, trying to trick you into going to the Zhao family to carry out a siege?" Li Xuan said worriedly.

After hearing the information brought back by Li Yang, everyone had different expressions and began to think. Li Xuan thought that this matter would lure Li Yang to go and thus besiege Li Yang. After all, in the past few days, the market on Lijia Lake has begun to bear fruit. , the Zhao family no longer has a throat to contain, so they naturally have to find new ways, and he thinks this is the Zhao family's conspiracy.

Li Yang shook his head and said: "Today I went to the Ding family and got news from there. The Zhao and Lu families have been at war in the past two days. The situation of the Zhao family should not be optimistic. After all, the ancestors of the Zhao family have set up a large formation. After so many years, I am afraid that Someone has found a flaw. It is impossible for the Zhao family to resist the attack of the Lu family and at the same time still have the energy to scheme against my Li family. It can be said that the Zhao family is really at a critical moment of life and death."

When Li Xuan heard this, he smiled and said: "That's not good. Now we don't need to take action, the Zhao family can defeat itself without attack. Although I can't personally kill the Zhao family's thieves and avenge Qingya personally, it can be regarded as a relief."

Everyone in the Li family basically believed that Xu Qingya would become the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Li Xuan and his wife recognized this woman with excellent beauty, talent and personality. Unfortunately, the rules of the world of cultivating immortals severely punished them. No matter how wonderful your talent is, without the ability to protect yourself, it will ultimately be in vain.

It is precisely because of this that Li Xuan and his wife hate the Zhao family particularly.

Therefore, in Li Xuan's view, it was a joke for the Zhao family to seek help from the Li family.

"Yang'er, what do you think? If you take action, can you solve the siege of the Zhao family?" Li Shixian puffed out smoke and said slowly.

He did not directly conclude the matter, but first asked Li Yang's opinion.

Li Yang said: "The Zhao family's great formation cannot be broken by ordinary foundation-building monks if there is no way to deal with it. However, Zhao Mingya relies on the great formation and can even temporarily increase his combat power to the level of foundation-building perfection, which is even weaker than the golden elixir." If the Zhao family is in such an emergency, the Lu family may have dispatched two foundation-building monks, and one of them, Lu Zhouyang, must also have taken action."

Later, Li Yang explained to everyone the excellence of the Zhao family's formation. The Zhao family's large formation is composed of more than fifty small formations combined with each other. It has a defensive and offensive formation, and that is exactly what it is. It took more than two hundred years to protect the Zhao family.

"The ancestor of the Zhao family is really a wizard. He can combine so many formations together. He is a rare formation master with quick thinking." Cai Yanzhi praised. Although he has no good impression of the Zhao family, this Zhao family ancestor's The means are still extremely recognized.

"Brother, you can't go. In such a critical situation, our Li family would rather just sit back and watch." Li Xuan said quickly.

Although the two foundation-building cultivators, not counting the rest, could be matched up one by one, Li Xuan still felt that it was not safe enough.

At this time, Li Chengping, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "No, uncle must go, not only for the Zhao family, but also for our Li family."

As soon as Li Chengping said this, both Li Xuan and Li Yang were surprised.

I originally thought that among everyone here, Li Chengping was definitely the one who least wanted to help the Zhao family. Unexpectedly, he was the first to speak, which surprised Li Yang, who had originally planned to speak.

Feeling everyone's surprised gazes, Li Chengping said with a gloomy face: "I really hope that the Zhao family will be destroyed soon, but in the long run, the Zhao family cannot be destroyed now. Once the Zhao family is destroyed, the territory will be in the hands of the Lu family. Our Li family no longer has a barrier to defend the Lu family. My uncle and aunt alone cannot defend the foundation of the Li family in the face of the strength of the Lu family. Therefore, we must let the Zhao family survive as a barrier against the Lu family and strive for Time for us to evolve.”

Li Chengping was extremely calm and did not let hatred go to his head. Instead, he discussed the matter as it happened, focusing on the overall situation of the family, and thinking about ways to break the situation.

Li Xuan, who had been strongly opposed to these remarks, couldn't help but fell silent. Apart from a trace of shame, he was even more proud. His son had grown up after all, and his horizons had surpassed his own. Li Xuan even had I felt somewhat relieved. I was originally afraid that Li Chengping would be blinded by hatred, but now it seemed that it was my unnecessary thoughts.

Li Shixian praised: "I am very pleased that Ping'er can look at the problem in this way, and I have no reason to refuse."

"As a father, I agree." Li Xuan said.

"Uncle must have made plans to take action a long time ago, right? He was just worried about Chengping's feelings, so he didn't say it directly." Li Chengping looked at Li Yang.

Li Yang said with a slight smile: "That's true. I even thought about a lot of words and said it to you. You said most of it without even thinking about it, which saved a lot of effort."

Although Li Yang, as the head of the family, has a very high say and can even act arbitrarily, he does not intend to act like this. At one time, Li Yang thought that he would not be able to get married and leave children, so he almost killed the two brothers Li Chengping and Chengan. Treat people as if they were your own, and train them to be the successors of the Li family.

The appearance of Cai Yanzhi made Li Yang change his mind. As foundation-building monks, the two are still planning to leave blood descendants. However, the higher the level of monks, the harder it is to leave heirs. It has almost become a closed loop. Li Yang discussed with Cai Yanzhi However, if an heir is born between the two, he will be the successor of the head of the family. If no heir is born, then Li Chengping will be the head of the family.

So these days, Li and Cai have been deliberately carving out the rough jade of Li Chengping.

"Everything is about the family." Li Chengping said, "Besides, it would be most satisfying to avenge a big vengeance yourself, and it would also comfort Sister Xiaoya's spirit in heaven."

With his words like this, Li Yang had nothing to worry about.

"Yan Zhi, you come to take charge of the family. I will go to the Zhao family in person later to help them resist the monks of the Lu family. Taiping will take some of the monks from the family to sit at Li Xikou. Be sure to guard the pass and don't let the Zhao family monks. Enter the territory under Taoxi's jurisdiction, otherwise unnecessary trouble will be caused." Li Yang began to distribute orders.

The two of them did not have any objections. In such troubled times, before helping the Zhao family, they must first stabilize their own territory. Once they fail to hold it, the Zhao family's monks will swarm into the Li family's territory, and those who flee will become fugitives. As a disciple, when the time comes, I won’t care about whether the swordsman is a swordsman or not.

Then he looked at Li Xuan and said: "Ask Ye Ming and others to lead two hundred soldiers into the mountains and forests near the Zhao family to look for the fleeing Zhao family people. If the other party is willing, they can bring them back to the family, but they must be carefully screened. The identity will be filled in the remaining four villages at that time."

Li Yang had already thought about many possibilities on the road, and even the refugees from the Zhao family expected to enter.

What the Li family lacks now is the population of the people under their rule. These more than 10,000 people are still not enough to fully cultivate the land under the rule of the Li family. Especially in the mountains to the west, there is a lot of fertile land. Unfortunately, it is too remote and no villages have been formed. .

Even if people are sent there, they are regarded as exiles. In addition, in the west near the Shiwanda Mountain, monsters appear from time to time, so few people go voluntarily.

Now that there is a great opportunity to replenish the population, Li Yang is naturally very happy.

"I will gather the soldiers immediately, and then let them go into the mountains at night to search for the refugees under the Zhao family." Li Xuan immediately replied, and after that, he went out resolutely to mobilize the troops.

After giving all these instructions, Li Yang planned to go out.

"and many more."

Just when Li Yang was about to set off, Cai Yanzhi suddenly stopped him.

"I have a few talismans here. Although they are not of high quality, you should take them with you." Cai Yanzhi said softly and took out a few talismans from his storage bag.

After leaving the Cai family, Cai Yanzhi was almost destitute. Fortunately, these days, he has been drawing talisman paper every day and has a lot of inventory.

Li Yang took the talisman and Cai Yanzhi sighed: "It's a pity that there are not enough spiritual stones in the family now. Otherwise, if you were to buy a magic weapon and an immortal sword, you, the swordsman, wouldn't have to hold a mortal sword."

Li Yang said: "Not now, I'm afraid there will be after tonight."

With Cai Yanzhi's intelligence, she naturally understood what he meant quickly.

Going to help the Zhao family is not a free effort, it naturally requires some benefits. Today, the Zhao family is just letting the Li family beat them with a stick.

After all, the surrounding families, except for the Li family, which has Li Yang, the foundation-building swordsman, and the Ding family, who are blood enemies, will naturally not help the Zhao family. The other families do not have the foundation-building stage to compete with the Lu family, and if they are not careful, they will fall to the Zhao family. On the home battlefield, if there are no foundation-building monks to take charge, it will be divided up by the surrounding aristocratic families sooner or later.

Therefore, other families are naturally unwilling to dip into this muddy water.

The Li family, the only one who could help the Zhao family, could naturally raise the price and hit the Zhao family hard.

Li Yang said a few more words to Cai Yanzhi, and then left the hall, turning into a stream of light and heading straight to Li Xikou.

……

Seeing that the monk from the Li family took his own storage bag and went to report for so long, but still had no accurate information, Zhao Jinjun was already extremely anxious and cursed Fan Shao countless times in his heart.

Just when his spirit almost collapsed, a stream of light fell in front of him, and his eyes gradually brightened. The person who came was none other than Li Yang.

"I have met the Li Family Sword Immortal, and I hope that the Sword Immortal will help the Zhao family. The Zhao family will be grateful in the future." Zhao Jinjun was like a drowning man who saw a life-saving straw, and could not hide his excitement.

Li Yang waved his hand and said: "It's really not that I don't want to take action. Now the Li family is in a period of development. The Zhao family is encircling the Li family. The Li family is also stretched. I can never take risks. In addition to my situation, you Zhao family Everyone also knows that spiritual energy is passing away every day, and we can only maintain our cultivation by using spiritual stones to maintain the restraints in the body every day. Even if we take action once, it will greatly reduce the lifespan of the restraint, and there is nothing we can do to help."

Hearing this, Zhao Jinjun, who originally thought he saw hope, darkened his face, and almost despaired. At the same time, he suddenly thought that Li Yang was standing in front of him. If he didn't plan to take action, there would be no need.

He was not a stupid person, and his steps that were about to turn around and leave immediately stopped.

He naturally guessed what Li Yang meant. If it were the past, he would have left without looking back.

Now it is indeed impossible. Li Yang's move is an important turning point for the Zhao family, so naturally it cannot be missed.

"From now on, the Li family can freely trade through the official channels within the Zhao family. The Zhao family will no longer block it. The Zhao family is willing to give the sword fairy a hundred spiritual stones as a reward for the spiritual power consumed by the sword immortal." Zhao Jinjun clarified. After getting a clue, he said this.

Li Yang sighed and said: "As time goes by, I now have to spend ten spirit stones every day to maintain the ban. The loss of the ban after one action is probably equivalent to a month's maintenance of the ban."

He said worriedly, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

When Zhao Jinjun saw Li Yang like this, his lungs were about to explode. As expected, Li Yang was taking advantage of the situation, and he came up with these lies casually.

The Li family's foundation can last for a month if they consume ten spirit stones every day. He, Zhao Jinjun, writes his name backwards.

It was clearly just outright blackmail, digging a big hole into which I had no choice but to jump in.

"I am willing to use one thousand kilograms of spiritual rice and three hundred spiritual stones to ask the sword immortal to take action." Zhao Jinjun said with cupped fists.

Li Yang said with a sneer on his lips: "These are not small sums. You, a disciple of the Zhao family, can decide it yourself?"

Zhao Jinjun said: "Now that the situation is urgent, my father will not refuse. If the Sword Immortal feels that it is not safe enough, he can go to Tingxi City in person and ask my father to sign a Taoist agreement based on the Qifu oath. Naturally, he will not treat him badly. Senior Sword Immortal."

With his words, Li Yang was a little satisfied and said: "Except for these, your Zhao family is close to the Li family's land, and you need to divide a ten-mile radius of the land and hand it over to the Li family. This is what I did. You don’t have to rush to refuse or agree to the conditions, I will go with you to Tingxi City, you can discuss it with your father, and then just give me a letter of approval."

Originally he was still covering up a bit, but now in this situation, Li Yang stopped pretending, which made Zhao Jinjun a little surprised.

However, he was also very worried, so he had to agree. Such matters as ceding land were of great importance and Zhao Jinjun could not make the decision.

Li Yang originally tested how much chips the Zhao family could offer. After two tests, he found that a direct descendant of Zhao Jinjun could agree to three hundred spirit stones. He wanted to discuss the bottom line, so he dared to open his mouth and let the Zhao family divide a piece. The land was given to the Li family. From Zhao Jinjun's hesitant look, Li Yang knew that the bottom line was almost here.

"Then I'd like to ask you, senior, to accompany me to Tingxi City." Zhao Jinjun said helplessly.

Li Yang nodded, then grabbed him, surrounded by sword light, turned into a rainbow and went straight to Tingxi City.
