Hearing this voice, Song Qingming, who had already wanted to fight to the death with the opponent, felt that the huge pressure in front of him suddenly disappeared, making him relax a little.
"Third uncle! Wait a moment and do it."
As the voice of the visitor approached from far away, a middle-aged man with a short black beard strode in from outside the hall.
The cultivation aura of the visitor has also reached the Nascent Soul realm, but his cultivation is significantly lower than that of the white-haired old man. He is a third-level Nascent Soul monk, and is another Nascent Soul ancestor of the Li family. Li Mengliang.
The white-haired old man not far away is the current patriarch of the Li family in "Yunlong Mountain", Li Boying.
After Li Mengliang, dressed in black, entered the hall, he quickly came to Li Boying and handed him a letter in his hand.
"Third uncle, don't be angry. I just received news that Xuan Yi did not go to Yuxuan Island. This matter should have nothing to do with them. I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding!"
After Li Boying took the letter and glanced at it, his expression gradually softened a little, but he was still a little suspicious and said:
"Meng Liang, are you sure this news is true?"
Hearing this, Li Mengliang nodded quickly and said: "I received the news personally, how can it be false? Third uncle, please don't worry too much.
Think about it, if Xuan Yi's matter is really related to the Taixu Sect, this little friend must have avoided our Li family. How dare he come to visit us in person today and take the initiative to deliver it to us.
There must have been a misunderstanding! ”
"Two seniors, the junior is really just here to visit Senior Sister Li. He doesn't know what happened on Yunlong Mountain. Senior, please be aware."
In the face of the somewhat unreasonable Li Boying, Song Qingming tried his best to explain himself, but still couldn't explain clearly.
After seeing Li Mengliang appear, things seemed to have turned around. Song Qingming did not miss this good opportunity and hurriedly explained again with a sincere face.
After hearing what Song Qingming said, although Li Boying, the ancestor of the Li family, had softened his expression, he still did not completely let go of the doubts in his heart, and asked him again with sharp eyes:
"It's just a door-to-door visit. You don't need coercion or inducement to do this. I'm afraid the purpose of your visit is not that simple!"
"This... is not true. In addition to visiting Senior Sister Li during this trip, this junior also has something else that he wants to hand over to her.
This thing was brought by a friend of Senior Sister Li to a junior. I must not borrow it from others, but must give it to Senior Sister Li personally.
Yesterday, I failed to see Senior Sister Li while delivering a message at the foot of the mountain. I didn't want to break my promise to anyone, so I felt a little anxious for a moment. ”
When Song Qingming set out to cultivate the world of immortality in the "East Phoenix Kingdom", Song Qingyu solemnly handed him a letter and asked him to hand it over to his senior sister Li Xuanyi.
This time Song Qingming took the initiative to come to "Yunlong Mountain". In addition to wanting to visit his senior sister Li Xuanyi, whom he had not seen for many years, there was also the reason for this letter.
Hearing Li Boying's question at this moment, Song Qingming didn't hide it after thinking about it, but directly told him about sending the letter.
Hearing this, Li Boying and Li Mengliang looked at each other and said directly: "Where is this thing now? Take it out and let's see!"
"Here, two seniors, I promised her when I came here that I would hand-deliver this letter to Senior Sister Li!"
Seeing that Song Qingming looked hesitant, Li Mengliang quickly stepped forward and explained with a smile: "Song Xiaoyou, I know that you are also a person who values love and justice.
If nothing had happened to Xuan Yi, we two old men would naturally not want to embarrass you like this.
But now that Xuan Yi suddenly disappeared, we want to read this letter just to find her back as soon as possible!
You and Xuan Yi are both classmates and good friends. I think you should also understand our painstaking efforts as elders! ”
"Seniors, this thing is about the promise of this junior. Can you please open this letter and take a look at it before making a decision?"
"Hmph! Boy, you stand here and dare to bargain with us. What do you think Yunlong Mountain is?"
"Third uncle, don't be angry. The most important thing now is to find Xuan Yi's whereabouts. Don't worry about this little thing!"
Seeing that Li Boying's face suddenly changed again, Li Mengliang quickly spoke to comfort him, which made Li Boying's expression soften slightly.
Then Li Mengliang turned to Song Qingming and said: "It doesn't matter, little friend, just do as you please.
We just want to know the whereabouts of Xuan Yi. If there is anything in it that is inconvenient for us to see, you don’t have to show it to us.
But one thing is, if it is related to Xuan Yi’s whereabouts, please do me a favor and let me know. Even if I, the Li family, owe you a favor. ”
"Senior, don't worry. Senior Sister Xuanyi and I are close friends from the same school. I will not refuse if I can help you."
Although Li Mengliang is also a Nascent Soul monk who has been practicing for many years, his tone of voice is very kind and he is obviously much easier to communicate with than Li Boying.
Seeing that the other party had agreed to his request, Song Qingming first put down a protective shield in front of himself, and then used a spell to carefully take out the letter Song Qingyu had given him.
Although he had promised Qing Yu not to peek at this letter before, but now that he could not see his senior sister Li Xuanyi, and he was faced with such a situation, Song Qingming could not take care of it anymore, so he directly removed the restriction above and took out the letter. .
After briefly scanning the letter, Song Qingming found that it only contained some greetings from Song Qingyu to his senior sister Li Xuanyi, and also briefly talked about his cultivation over the years.
Apart from this, there was no other content, which made Song Qingming's eyes flash with confusion.
At first, Song Qingyu was very cautious when he asked Song Qingming to help deliver the letter. Song Qingming thought that there was something important written in the letter, but he did not expect that there were only a few greetings in it.
Seeing that there was nothing to hide in the letter, Song Qingming did not hesitate too much and threw the letter in his hand to Li Mengliang in person.
After the two elders of the Li family took the letter and took a look at it, as Song Qingming expected, their faces showed a bit of surprise.
After a while, Li Mengliang asked Song Qingming again: "Little friend Song, what is the relationship between the person who sent the letter and you?"
"Reporting to the two seniors, I will tell you the truth. The person who asked me to deliver the letter is a good friend of the junior. I met Senior Sister Xuanyi when she traveled to the East China Sea to cultivate immortals.
A few years ago, when she learned that I was coming to Donghuang Kingdom to cultivate in the immortal world, she asked me to send this letter to Senior Sister Xuan Yi.
I had never opened this letter before. If it weren't for the two seniors, the junior would never have peeked at this letter in advance. ”
Li Mengliang was silent for a while after hearing this, and then exchanged glances with the clan leader Li Boying on the side. Then with a flash of inspiration, he returned the letter to Song Qingming.
"Even so, it seems that this matter is indeed a misunderstanding. I just shocked the little friend!"
After saying that, Li Mengliang smiled and slightly arched his hand to Song Qingming, taking the initiative to express his apology.
Upon seeing this, Song Qingming, who had just received the letter, was slightly startled and quickly bowed in return.
"Senior, you are very polite. It is said that the junior acted a little recklessly yesterday, which caused everyone to misunderstand. The junior has offended many things. I hope that the two seniors will show their respect."
Li Boying, who was standing aside, heard Song Qingming's proactive apology and waved his hand directly: "Okay, since it is a misunderstanding, just make it clear, and you don't need to explain too much.
But there is one thing I still want to tell you. If I had known that Xuan Yi’s disappearance was related to you in the future, I would not be as polite to you as I am today. ”
After saying that, Li Boying suddenly shot out a fierce sword light from his hand, flew directly over Song Qingming's head, and landed on the wall not far behind him.
After the spiritual light dissipated, the wall was not damaged at all, leaving only a very inconspicuous tiny hole, which made Song Qingming feel nervous again.
To be able to cast such a powerful spell and control the force so evenly and just right, this person is indeed a veteran "Nascent Soul Monk" who has been practicing for thousands of years.
I have to admit that the strength of a Nascent Soul master like Li Boying, who is only one step away from the late Nascent Soul stage, is by no means comparable to those of the opponents Song Qingming has encountered before.
Even in the "Taixu Sect", except for the master "Lingxu Taoist" and senior brother Fu Jinglong, it is probably difficult for anyone else to be confident of defeating this person in a fight.
After warning Song Qingming, Li Boying did not stay too long and left the hall in a flash, leaving only Li Mengliang and Song Qingming who was still in a daze.
Seeing that Song Qingming still seemed a little nervous, Li Mengliang quickly stepped forward with a smile and comforted him: "Song Xiaoyou, the third uncle has a bad temper, so don't take offense to it."
"Juniors don't dare!"
Seeing that Song Qingming soon changed his expression to a calm expression, and did not seem to be angry because of what had just happened, Li Mengliang smiled and nodded, then continued to sigh:
"Xuan Yi has been deeply loved by the patriarch since she was a child. It just so happens that her big day is approaching, but she suddenly disappears at this time. The patriarch is extremely worried about this.
Xiaoyou Song, please don’t worry about what happened just now. Just think of these spiritual stones as calming your fears! ”
After Li Mengliang finished speaking, a flash of inspiration flashed in his hand, and he threw out another bag of spiritual stones, which fell into Song Qingming's hands, full of thousands of them.
"Senior, you're welcome, junior..."
Seeing this situation, Song Qingming was about to refuse, but Li Mengliang waved his hand and interrupted his next words.
"Besides, I have another unmerciful request, and I would like to ask Xiaoyou Song to do a favor."
"Senior, please speak out!"
Hearing this, Li Mengliang nodded slightly and continued: "Since what happened in the hall just now has passed, let us not mention it again.
I also hope that little friend Song will never tell this matter to anyone else, so as not to cause a bigger misunderstanding in the future. You know what I mean! ”
Although "Taixu Sect" is a secluded sect with not many disciples on the island, there are still god-transformation monks like "Lingxu Taoist" in its sect, and its strength is far beyond that of ordinary Yuanying sects outside. of. Although Song Qingming was only an outer disciple, it was not a good-looking thing to be bullied like this in Nanzhou, so close to the sect.
Hearing Li Mengliang's reminder, Song Qingming thought for a moment and immediately understood. The other party must be afraid that the "Taixu Sect" would know about today's matter in the future, so he didn't want him to tell the matter.
However, as the other party thought, although Song Qingming was frightened by the other party today, he did not really want to be stingy enough to care about this matter.
After all, the Li family of "Yunlong Mountain" is also the biological family of senior sister Li Xuanyi. Song Qingming must still give him this face.
Seeing Li Mengliang give the steps, he immediately smiled and nodded with understanding and said: "Senior Li, don't worry, I know this matter well and will not let the sect know about it.
To be honest, Senior Sister Xuanyi took good care of the juniors in the family back then, and Song was very grateful, otherwise she would not have come to visit her today.
When I first arrived at the foot of the mountain, I learned about the happy event of my senior sister. I originally thought that I would be able to get a wedding drink by chance, but I never thought that this would be the case. I was really surprised.
Seniors, please rest assured. If you really know the whereabouts of senior sister, juniors will certainly not dare to deceive her. ”
"Haha! Song Xiaoyou's words are so sincere, I naturally believe it. I can rest assured with your words.
Fellow Taoist, please wait here for a moment. I will arrange for Xuanfeng to take you down the mountain later. ”
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Seeing that Song Qingming said so sincerely, Li Mengliang immediately nodded slightly in response, then turned and walked out of the hall.
After Li Mengliang left, Song Qingming's tense nerves slowly relaxed.
Through the recent contact, Song Qingming quickly understood that although Li Boying had acted very fiercely before, he did not really want to attack him, but just wanted to scare him.
Combined with Li Mengliang's appearance later, Li Boying and Li Mengliang of the Li family, one was a good person and the other was a bad person. It was obvious that they suspected that Li Xuanyi's disappearance was related to the "Taixu Sect" and wanted to use this to extract words from Song Qingming.
But their suspicion was wrong. Song Qingming did not know anything about the disappearance of senior sister Li Xuanyi. Even if Li Boying really beat Song Qingming to death on the spot, he would not be able to give the answer he wanted.
After looking at the bag of spirit stones in his hand, Song Qingming sighed slightly and generously put the spirit stones into his storage instrument.
Although it is not what he wants, if he does not accept the spiritual stone, a very shrewd person like Li Mengliang will definitely not let him leave without worry.
After all, I was indeed frightened by the other party, so I should pay some compensation.
After experiencing a series of events just now, Song Qingming, who was originally confused, was frightened, but he finally understood some of the current situation of senior sister Li Xuanyi.
Sitting alone in the main hall at this moment, he couldn't help but frown slightly when he recalled what had just happened.
In recent years, senior sister Li Xuanyi first suddenly quit the sect, and then she was about to get married. However, she suddenly disappeared at the juncture when the Double Cultivation Ceremony was about to be held.
Song Qingming still has a lot of doubts in his heart when he thinks about what happened one after another.
If senior sister Li Xuanyi voluntarily wanted to return to the family to get married, so she voluntarily left the "Taixu Sect", this would be understandable and reasonable.
But since Senior Sister Li has chosen to return to the family, why did she leave suddenly without any reason before her wedding?
There are so many monks in "Yunlong Mountain", and there are Nascent Soul masters like Li Boying, so it's unlikely that she was kidnapped!
After thinking about it, Song Qingming still couldn't quite figure out the sudden disappearance of Li Xuanyi, and he couldn't guess where she went.
For people like senior sister Li Xuanyi who like to travel, if they really want to leave, it is possible to go anywhere.
Maybe she was just visiting other states in the "East Phoenix Kingdom", or maybe she would leave the "East Phoenix Immortal Continent" directly and travel to other immortal worlds.
After Li Mengliang left, half an hour passed.
Just when Song Qingming was still sitting in the main hall, thinking hard and wondering, two escaping lights suddenly flashed across the door of the main hall, and Li Xuanfeng, who had been away for a long time, appeared in front of Song Qingming again.
But this time, Li Xuanfeng did not come alone. He was accompanied by a handsome young man in white clothes, who was also a late-stage Jindan monk.
Seeing Song Qingming taking the initiative to come towards him, Li Xuanfeng quickly stepped forward to greet him and cupped his hands: "Fellow Daoist Song, let me introduce you. This is Fellow Daoist Zhou Daoping."
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are polite!"
Zhou Daoping, who was dressed in white, returned the salute with his hands, glanced at Song Qingming and suddenly said: "I heard that Fellow Daoist Song came to see Fellow Daoist Xuan Yi?"
After hearing the other party's inquiry and knowing that the other party should be aware of Li Xuanyi's disappearance, Song Qingming quickly nodded slightly and said:
"That's right! Fellow Taoist Xuanyi and I met many years ago. We happened to be passing by Yunlong Mountain this time and wanted to pay a visit on the way.
It's a pity that I couldn't meet her. This trip is a bit regretful! ”
"Haha! There are many regrets in life, so fellow Taoists, don't be discouraged. Maybe it won't be long before we meet again."
"What fellow Taoist said is that I will leave Donghuang Kingdom and return to the Fuyun Mountains in the near future. I am afraid that I will have to wait until the next time I come here to have this opportunity again."
Hearing Song Qingming's answer, Zhou Daoping nodded with a smile, then raised his hands to Song Qingming again and said:
"It's a fate to meet you today. Zhou wants to make friends with Taoist Song here, and I want to entrust you with something. I wonder if you can agree to it."
It was just the first time that he and the other party met. When he heard that Zhou Daoping actually had something to entrust to him, Song Qingming was also full of doubts and said somewhat puzzledly:
"Song will return to the Fuyun Mountains in the near future. I don't know if I can complete the tasks entrusted by fellow Taoist. Can fellow Taoist please make it clear in advance and let me think about it."
When Zhou Daoping heard this, he shook his head and said: "Fellow Taoist Song has worried too much. This matter is just a piece of cake for fellow Taoist."
After saying that, a flash of light flashed in Zhou Daoping's hand, and a rolled-up white scroll appeared, and he handed it directly to Song Qingming.
"Fellow Daoist Song, this was painted by Zhou in his spare time for fellow Taoist Xuanyi. It is not a valuable thing. I would also like to ask fellow Taoist to help you accept it. If I have a chance to see fellow Taoist Xuanyi in the future, please help me pass it on to her." .”
"Ah! Did Fellow Daoist Zhou misunderstand? I haven't seen Fellow Daoist Xuanyi for many years, and I don't know where she is now. I'm afraid there is no chance of meeting her outside.
If you entrust me with this thing, I'm afraid you will let me entrust you with something wrong and miss important things for fellow Taoists! ”
Facing the scroll in Zhou Daoping's hand, Song Qingming's face became even more confused, and he didn't dare to take it over for a while.
Seeing that Song Qingming seemed worried and unable to fulfill his instructions, Zhou Daoping quickly smiled and explained:
"Fellow Taoist Song, don't think too much. As I said before, this is just an ordinary portrait and not a precious spiritual object. Fellow Taoist, just help me accept it.
If there is an opportunity in the future, it would be best if you can help me pass it on to Daoist Fellow Xuan Yi. It doesn’t matter if I can’t see her. It’s also a happy event that I made a friend, Fellow Daoist Song, today. Think of it as a small gift from me to Fellow Daoist Daoist! ”
"Well..., well, Song will do his best."
Seeing that the other party was talking about what he said, Song Qingming seemed a little disrespectful when he refused. He quickly stepped forward to take the white scroll from Zhou Daoping's hand and carefully put it away.
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist!
It's a rare chance to get to know a Taoist friend today. Zhou happened to have a jar of good spiritual wine with him. How about having a drink? ”
"I'm here to accompany you!"
“You can’t be counted as Li!”
Seeing that Zhou Daoping spoke very boldly, Song Qingming also had a good impression of him, so he nodded in agreement. Li Xuanfeng on the side didn't want to miss it and joined in with a smile.
Under Li Xuanfeng's arrangement, the three of them found a bamboo pavilion on the mountain, sat down, and had a drink.
The three of them, Song Qingming, are all golden elixir monks who are about to have a baby. There is not much difference in their cultivation level. When it comes to cultivation, there are still many topics to talk about.
Like Song Qingming, Li Xuanfeng was also a monk who had broken through the ninth level of the Golden Core for many years. He also tried to condense the Nascent Soul twice, but both failed.
Although Zhou Daoping's cultivation level is lower, he has already reached the eighth level of the Golden Core. It is estimated that in another twenty or thirty years, he will be able to try to condense the Nascent Soul.
Time flew by, and soon the sun was setting. It wasn't until the whole jar of spiritual wine was at the bottom that Zhou Daoping took the lead in getting up and saying goodbye.
After Zhou Daoping left, Song Qingming, who was sitting in the bamboo pavilion, thought for a while and then asked Li Xuanfeng beside him:
"Fellow Daoist Li, could this Fellow Daoist Zhou belong to Senior Sister Xuanyi?"
Hearing Song Qingming's question, Li Xuanfeng smiled slightly and did not answer him directly.
But Song Qingming had already understood in his heart and sighed helplessly.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Xuanfeng asked:
"Fellow Daoist Song, since you have nothing to do on the mountain, then I will send you down the mountain. This is what the ancestor has said!"
“Then I’ll trouble you, Fellow Daoist Li!”
Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly, and with a flash of light under his feet, he took Song Qingming with him to the foot of the mountain.
On a hill not far away from where the two disappeared, the two Nascent Soul ancestors of the Li family, Li Boying and Li Mengliang, were standing on the top of the hill watching all this quietly.
It wasn't until Song Qingming's figure passed through the "Yunlong Mountain" mountain protection formation that Li Boying turned around and asked:
"Meng Liang, that kid won't talk nonsense after he goes back, right?" (End of Chapter)
