Chapter 462 376: Separation Fire Spear (2)
She paused for a moment, then continued:
"He was indeed killed, and now the whole South River knows he inherited the legacy of the . Rumor has it that there is an in , and Chu Yi will soon enter it."
Hearing this news, Li Qinghong already understood everything clearly in her heart, thinking to herself:
'What genius... he must be a Perfected Lord-level figure...'
While Li Qinghong was pondering, an old man rode the wind up from below, face full of wrinkles, hair completely white, wearing an expression full of anxiety, calling out:
"Hong'er must not go! Hong'er must not go!"
Li Qinghong hurried up to greet him, smiling brightly, and replied:
"Uncle is overly anxious! How could Qinghong be the kind who is blinded by greed."
Xiao Guiluan also came forward respectfully, speaking warmly:
"Father!"
Li Xuanxuan sighed softly, replying:
"Of course, you are not an impulsive person, but Divine Skills recognize no loyalty. I'm only afraid you might end up like Yu Yufeng, lured away."
His face was deeply worried as he continued:
"As soon as I heard that Chu Yi was the , I was quite terrified. Even though our family obtained so much information, I never dared wake you..."
The three landed and sat down in the small courtyard. Xiao Guiluan carried Li Yuexiang and went down. Li Xuanxuan said:
"You have heard from Guiluan as well. This Chu Yi is nine out of ten the very Perfected Lord whom the Green Pond Sect awaits. As for the Han Family, they are merely a replica of the Kong Family."
"Apart from the Three Sects and Seven Doors and a few Immortal Clans, the rest of the Noble Families likely know nothing. Now no one knows how entangled things have become..."
Li Qinghong stared at the Dharma Light in the sky for a while, then shook her head in confusion and said:
"There are disciples from the Three Sects and Seven Doors present. These Rosy Clouds are bolstered by Escape Skills... But how can so many Noble Families possess Escape Skills?"
Li Xuanxuan was stunned for a moment, and also looked carefully. Sure enough, just as Li Qinghong had said. He wondered:
"That Kong Yu doesn't seem to be lying."
Li Qinghong pondered for a while, then spoke:
"Kong Yu said that the disciples of the Three Sects and Seven Doors were barred from entering for three years—and now three years have passed."
Li Xuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief, catching the hidden meaning in Li Qinghong's words. He replied:
"You mean... This Chu Yi was most at risk before reaching Foundation Establishment. Once Chu Yi attains Foundation Establishment and opens the , things will actually improve..."
Li Qinghong nodded, speaking softly:
"I have thought over Kong Yu's matter as well. If this business of reincarnation is supposed to be nothing but the Golden Core Perfected Lord's idle amusement... I don't quite believe it."
"Just look at the Perfected Persons of South River, which one is not shrewd and far-sighted, with brilliant means? Golden Core Perfected Lords stand above Zifu; would they really descend to the mortal world just to amuse themselves? And is not the reincarnated body inherently weak?"
The more Li Xuanxuan listened, the more he nodded. Li Qinghong continued:
"This matter is merely told from a Qi Cultivator's perspective. If viewed from the stance of Zifu or even Golden Core, it could look entirely different..."
"There are indeed some Zifu Immortal Clans, but how many have truly established Sects? Why was it that the Kong Family fell in a night, and Changxi Perfected Person could instantly found the Xuan Yue Sect and carve out a place in Yue Country?"
Li Xuanxuan felt a chill down his spine, muttering:
"Could it be Chang Xi... this... this..."
Li Qinghong spoke gently:
"To the Kong Family, this matter is a disgrace... Who is to say it wasn't Changxi Perfected Person currying favor with that person as a foundation for standing tall?"
Li Xuanxuan broke out in cold sweat and sighed:
"Continue..."
Li Qinghong answered lightly, in a gentle voice:
"I believe that the so-called Chu Yi's meteoric rise is, on the surface, the reincarnation of a Perfected Lord playing among mortals, but behind the scenes, it is certainly some Perfected Lord pushing events. As for the , it is probably a reward promised to the Three Sects..."
"As for the Seven Doors, at best, they're only entitled to know something..."
Li Xuanxuan listened and suddenly saw the light, sighing:
"As for Loose Cultivators, they cannot even see the surface, and simply think Chu Yi is a genius rising to the sky... If it weren't for Kong Yu informing us, our family too would remain in the dark..."
The two finished sorting things through. Li Qinghong pursed her lips and said:
"As for why Kong Yu told uncle... Some part of it, I'm afraid, is to win favor from our family."
"It's obvious that the Kong Clan of Xuan Yue Sect harbors some goodwill towards our family."
Li Xuanxuan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice:
"It's just... in this round, does our Li Family... have any chance to profit?"
...
Green Pond Sect, Qing Sui Peak.
The bamboo forest on Qing Sui Peak swayed gently. Li Xizhi stood among them, True Yuan on his body showing faint purple-red Rosy Cloud hues, causing the bamboo grove to be awash in colored light.
The Scripture he cultivated, "Morning Glow Dew Technique", was a Fourth Grade Cultivation Technique, containing six spells and three Secret Techniques: from the matching movement technique to
the spell , movement technique, Escape Skill, spell—all were provided for.
Though Li Xizhi had only broken through to Qi Cultivation two years ago, he could already defeat three or four early-stage Qi Cultivator Loose Cultivators with one hand.
"This is truly the foundation of the Three Sects..."
He took out the small family letter, glanced at it again, and smiled to himself:
"The household is well-off this year, even relocated a mountain, now called . Surely, it was not father who named it... Wonder when I'll get to go back and see it..."
As he pondered, a soft call drifted through the forest:
"Senior Brother!"
Li Xizhi turned and looked back. A young woman in a Mysterious Patterned dress was approaching, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features and a face full of joyful warmth, her eyes fixed intently on his brow. Li Xizhi clasped his hands, replying:
"Junior Sister Yang..."
This young woman had been sent by Yuan Tuan to inquire with the Yang Family for Li Xizhi. The Diyun Peak Master Yang Tianya was secluded in cultivation and could not be seen. In the end, after much pushing back and forth, she was the one sent over.
