Chapter 40 Choice
"You are smart, don't you want to listen anymore!"
Li Yaowen glared fiercely, and Li Qingxiao immediately shut up and did not continue to pester the ancestor about this old past, and continued to talk about the grudges between the two families of Guo Zong.
Zong Tianqing betrothed Zong Wan'er directly to Li Yaowen. Guo Baichuan wanted whatever he wanted in the clan, let alone Linjiang City, a small place in his eyes, which was in the middle of the countryside. Zong Tianqing's disobedience undoubtedly touched his gunpowder barrel.
Guo Baichuan was immediately furious and gathered several Foundation Establishment tribe members to question Zong Tianqing, but he could not beat the other party at all. Zong Tianqing could no longer bear it and taught Guo Baichuan a lesson, which made Guo Baichuan completely lose his mind.
If you can't beat me, you'll be called. The news that Guo Baichuan sent a letter to the Hui tribe was soon learned by Zong Tianqing.
Zong Tianqing was also a ruthless person. After knowing that Guo Baichuan's character could not be saved, he contacted Zijian Pavilion directly and released news at the same time that he held a foundation-building ritual meeting in Linjiang City and invited dozens of foundation-building cultivators from seven cities to Linjiang City to perform the Dharma. In fact, it was to cover the Zijian Pavilion monks from Linjiang City and confuse Guo.
Guo Baichuan was indeed trapped and thought that Zong Tianqing was ill and was eager to seek medical treatment. He led dozens of people from the Guo family's foundation-building school to attack.
Zong Tianqing joined forces with several true disciples from the Zijian Pavilion to set up a second-level spiritual formation in advance, trapping the Guo cultivators for fifteen days, killing five cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and finally capturing Guo Baichuan alive. Just as Zong Tianqing was about to kill Guo Baichuan, the Jindan real person in Guo could no longer sit still.
The real person took action, and the second-level spiritual formation that works for the foundation-building cultivators became a decoration. Fortunately, Zi Jian Pavilion was prepared for a long time, and a Jindan real person also came. At this time, Zong Tianqing was unwilling to give up killing Guo Baichuan, but was blocked by the real person from Zi Jian Pavilion.
Speaking of this, Li Yaowen obviously had a good atmosphere for the real person in Zijian Pavilion.
"That stupid thing, I have a great opportunity to kill the seeds of the genius of Guo, and I am indecisive and afraid of disputes. If I had repelled Guo in one go, why would Zijian Pavilion wait for the war to start again in one hundred and thirty years!"
The old man has such a bad temper, and Jindan Zhenren has become a stupid person.
Of course, Li Qingxiao would not be brought in by Li Yaowen's emotions. Zijian Pavilion has been based in Lansha Island for nearly a thousand years, and it is impossible for him to have no plans for him.
At that time, he chose to calm down and gave up killing Guo Baichuan. It can only be said that there are other unknown secrets.
Of course, Li Qingxiao would not refute the old man's words, isn't that uncomfortable!
To put it this way, Zijian Pavilion’s plan to the East Peninsula was not a short time. It is very likely that it has been planning for hundreds of years. It was only recently that the disciples were sent so much, and even the Jindan Zhenren appeared faintly.
"No, great-grandfather, before when I went to Linjiang City, I heard that the ancestor Zong Tianqing was secretly forming pills. Before the fruition, Zijian Pavilion should not be so anxious. According to the second uncle, the Zong family members are extremely low-key at this moment. The overall situation of Linjiang City is completely controlled by Zijian Pavilion. Zong Tianqing has never appeared!"
Li Qingxiao grasped the key point of the problem. Zong Tianqing had been standing on the side of Zijian Pavilion more than a hundred years ago, but at that time, Zijian Pavilion chose not to start a war with Guo.
Now the formation of Zi Jian Pavilion is obviously to take the initiative to start the battle. If Zong Tianqing succeeds in forming pills, Zi Jian Pavilion's current behavior will be natural. There is an additional Jindan real person. With a great increase in strength, it is also a matter of just going to attack Guo.
But Zong Tianqing did not show up at all, and Zi Jian Pavilion was so full of fanfare, no, it was obviously unreasonable.
Li Yaowen obviously thought of this, but he seemed to have an answer, and his tone was faintly over.
"Brother Tianqing, I'm afraid the pill has failed!"
Upon hearing this, Li Qingxiao looked shocked. He knew that the ancestor would not be aimless and did not interrupt Li Yaowen's following.
"After a great monk in the Foundation Building Realm is perfected and becomes a false pill, he must find the Five Elements Jedi that matches his spiritual root attributes, and use the Five Elements Gangsha to condense the Golden Pill.
The entire five elements of the Lansha Island are controlled by Guo and Zijian Pavilion. Brother Tianqing wrote to me a letter a few years ago, saying that he would use the Zijian Pavilion to condense the golden elixir. I once advised him not to trust Zijian Pavilion too much."
Good guy, the ancestor even knows how to condense the golden elixir!
But Li Qingxiao's attention was still focused on Zong Tianqing's information on forming pills with the help of the Zijian Pavilion.
Will Zijiange hope that a real person in the Jindan realm will appear in the Zong family under his command? The answer is almost yes, it is impossible!
The entire Blue Sand Island has formed a tacit understanding over the years. Except for the two major forces of Zijian Pavilion and Guo, no other forces are allowed to appear, Jindan real person.
Even if Zi Jiange is really willing to help Zong Tianqing build pills, then Zi Jiange should not have entered Linjiang City with great fanfare before the results are achieved. When Zong Tianqing builds pills successfully and starts a war with Guo, wouldn’t the chance of victory be greater?
I'm afraid it's really as the ancestor expected. Zong Tianqing failed to form a pill, so he never showed up. For some reason, Zi Jiange felt that he could start a war with Guo.
"Zijiange chose to give in a hundred years ago and let Guo Baichuan go. Why is he so confident now?" Li Qingxiao couldn't help but ask.
The ancestor's expression calmed down, and there was an obvious answer in his heart. He spoke solemnly: "Because real person Qian Yun has not appeared for more than ten years!"
Real person Qian Yun?
Li Qingxiao, the oldest generation of the Jindan real person in Guo's family, asked in confusion: "How old is Qian Yun like this year?"
"I've lived to this day and I'm already four hundred and ninety-eight years old!"
With a sentence of living until now, Li Qingxiao instantly straightened out his thoughts and understood the reason why Zi Jiange waited for more than a hundred years before the war started.
The lifespan of Jindan is 500, but it is like the lifespan of a great monk in the Foundation Building Realm is 300. It is impossible for him to die just after his life. In addition, the lifespan of Qianyun has not appeared for more than ten years.
The ancestor of Guo’s family, Zhenren Qian Yun, is very likely to have died, and one Jindan real person was missing. Although he is not the only Jindan real person, it is also a major event for Guo. It would be reasonable for Zijiange to seize this opportunity.
Now, there are two choices in front of Li Qingxiao.
Follow Zijian Pavilion and walk to the opposite side of Guo, help defeat Guo, or vice versa, turn to Guo and become the hostile to Zijian Pavilion.
"Which side is being considered?" Li Yaowen suddenly spoke. He led the family forward for more than two hundred years. He knew very well what Li Qingxiao was worried about.
Seeing that Li Qingxiao did not answer, Li Yaowen continued to speak.
"With the strength of the family now, no matter which side you stand on, it will have little impact on the situation. The ancestor asked you, what do you think of the war between Zijian Pavilion and Guo?"
Li Qingxiao's heart was trembling, and the ancestor's words reminded him a little. He had been considering joining the Zijian Pavilion or the Guo family, but he did not expect that with the strength of the family, no matter which side he went, he would not be taken seriously.
Then the ancestor's question was thought for a while before he spoke.
"Purple Sword Pavilion came across the river and took the initiative to provoke the battle, and must have made full preparations. If the Purple Sword Pavilion began planning this war more than a hundred years ago, the chances of victory would be greater.
On the other hand, Guo’s response was issued a six-city edict to recruit all foundation-building families to join the war. It seemed to be huge, but it was a little hasty. Not only did so many foundation-building families have their own ideas, but even these families were very dirty, and it was almost impossible to work together on the battlefield. Looking at their actions of locking down the city in Black Valley City, they were even more impatient, and even panic.”
Hearing Li Qingxiao's analysis, Li Yaowen nodded repeatedly, and his eyes became more and more admirable when he looked at him.
"Yes, although the details of the side branches are missing, they are true. So, do you want to throw yourself into the Zijian Pavilion?"
After communicating with the ancestor for a moment, his thoughts were indeed much smoother. The road ahead of Li Qingxiao gradually became clearer, and a plan appeared in his heart.
"No, what the ancestor said is true. The family's strength is too weak. It is not only that it is not taken seriously when it comes to Zijian Pavilion, but it is very likely that it will face the revenge of Guo first.
Nowadays, there are many other foundation-building families in the six cities of Lansha East Island. They are also considering investing in each other's forces. Many families are much stronger than my Li family. In this way, they will directly surrender to Zijian Pavilion and get extremely low benefits."
When Li Yaowen heard this, he was also a little shocked by Li Qingxiao's boldness and vaguely guessed.
"You want to..."
"After a while in the city of Heigu, he was the minions of Guo on the surface, and secretly surrendered to Zijian Pavilion to provide information so that Zijian Pavilion can see our value!"
Li Qingxiao's face was a little excited. With the strength of the family alone, even if he turned to Zijian Pavilion and the opponent finally won, the benefits that Li's family could get were extremely limited, and he might even be ignored.
After all, the news brought by the second uncle was that there were almost twenty true disciples of Guang Ziyi, and maybe there were some who would cross the river in the future. With such strength, let alone defecting to them now, even if there were a few more great monks in the Foundation Establishment Realm, the other party might not be able to see it.
But if you can make a secret chess from Zijian Pavilion and hide in Guo’s camp, even if you can’t wait for the opportunity and hurt it severely. Even if you can provide important information to Zijian Pavilion during the hiding period, it will be much more valuable than directly surrendering to be the other party’s thug.
Li Yaowen was silent, and was constantly thinking about the feasibility of Li Qingxiao's idea and the hidden dangers.
"This method is indeed feasible, but whether Zi Jiange can agree is a question. The clan is small and the Zi Jiange may not trust you!"
However, Li Qingxiao was not worried about this issue at all, and even said with some excitement: "Old ancestor, the high-level spirit fish on Bayu Mountain can not only serve as our surrender price, but also allow the family to gain huge benefits in this war!"
This war is obviously not something that can be completed in a short while. Judging from the fact that the two sides did not start a war in the two cities of Heigu Linjiang at the first time, but controlled the cultivators' supplies, it can be concluded that this must be a war that lasted for a long time.
Nowadays, the prices of spiritual elixirs, talismans, and various cultivators in the Black Valley City of Linjiang City have soared. However, Li's hand still has a spiritual fish pond with a monthly output of more than 10,000 kilograms.
In an instant, Li Qingxiao felt that the battle was not so annoying, and he suddenly became enlightened when he chose to vote on the other side.
"Old ancestor, this is a good opportunity that I, Li family... has not seen in a century!"
Li Qingxiao's plan could not be hidden from Li Yaowen. He could see the huge opportunity, but there was still a hint of concern in his eyes. He was used to considering the crisis at the first time.
Seeing Li Qingxiao's excitement, Li Yaowen couldn't bear to express his worries. He also had the idea of Lian Po being old for the first time. Li Qingxiao's boldness and pioneering were indeed something he did not have at his age.
