Chapter 408 Follow the Heart


over time.

After a while, Li Qiuben's elixir knotting banquet will officially begin.

Li Xunxun and others, who are still at the foot of Changqing Mountain, are about to finish their work.

Normally at this time, except for Yan Xuewei, who likes to pinch points, there would be no monks attending their Li family’s pill-forming banquet. However, at this time, Zuoqiu Lipeng, the pill-forming elder from Qingfeng Valley, had already arrived. It is impossible for Yan Xuewei to come over.

Even if the Qingfeng Valley did not come to the pill-forming elders, Yan Xuewei, as the owner of the valley, would generally not come to participate in the pill-forming banquet of the affiliated forces.

The Valley Master has more power than Elder Jiedan, but many things become difficult for him to do on his own.

"Junior of the Li family, don't rush up."

Just when Li Xunxun turned around to prepare to go up the mountain, he heard an old and unfamiliar voice.

Elixir forming monk!

Li Xunxun, who felt the breath, turned around and came back.

He had only seen a portrait of the monk in front of him. This guy seemed to be Zhao Wengang from the Zhao royal family.

“It turns out he is a senior from the royal family.” Li Xunxun looked at Zhao Wengang and said with a smile.

This was the most unexpected thing for him today. The visitor from the Zhao royal family was at Li Qiuben's pill-making banquet. At this time, there were only two possibilities for the Zhao royal family to come, and the possibility of causing trouble was very high.

"Yes." Zhao Wengang nodded calmly.

However, Li Xunxun’s next words made him a little uneasy.

"It seems that our Li family has not sent out invitations to our seniors, right?" Li Xunxun looked at Zhao Wengang in confusion.

The reason why he dared to say this was because at the core meeting of the family's top leaders, they had already had a strategy for dealing with the Zhao royal family. The current strategy is different from before. In the past, I would be polite about anything I said, but now there is no need to be polite.

If he wanted to, Li Xunxun could even prevent Zhao Wengang from going up the mountain. Grandpa Thirteen would not blame him for this.

“There is no invitation.” Zhao Wengang, who was somewhat calm, still had a smile on his face.

Li Xunxun's words were shocking to him. He never thought that Li Xunxun would say this directly.

You must know that the Zhao royal family has not officially started to suppress the Li family. In the last incident, their royal family even made corresponding concessions.

"What? Our royal family took the initiative to attend your Li family's elixir knotting banquet. Are your Li family still not happy?"

"Senior, what you said is nothing wrong." Li Xunxun was also smiling, "Our Li family welcomes any guest. Of course, if you are not a guest... I think the senior is a guest."

"Yes." Zhao Wengang nodded lightly, but he did not answer Whether you are a guest or not, "lead the way."

"Senior seems to have forgotten something? A basic etiquette."

Li Xunxun signaled Zhao Wengang to send a congratulatory gift to attend the Dan Dan Banquet. There is no reason not to send a congratulatory gift, and it is impossible for you to come and eat and drink for free.

“This is the intention of our royal family.” The things Zhao Wengang took out were very ordinary.

It would be very good if the affiliated Qi refining forces gave this thing, but the Zhao royal family is an alchemy forming force, so they just gave this thing away.

"Hahaha, the royal family is really 'grand', already comparable to the Qi refining forces affiliated with our Li family." Li Xunxun nodded with satisfaction, his words full of ridicule.

"It must be comparable." Zhao Wengang smiled.

"Well, please, senior." After saying that, Li Xunxun just walked forward on his own, regardless of whether Zhao Wengang was following him or not.

Normally when Senior Jiedan comes, even though he leads the way, he has to walk in front of others.

Zhao Wengang looked at Li Xunxun who was walking in front. He didn’t feel uncomfortable at all, but he could imagine Li Xunxun’s behavior. After all, at the beginning, this Li Xunxun didn’t Plan to have a good talk with him.

Zhao Wengang's original plan was to pretend. Seeing Li Xunxun's attitude, there was no need to pretend.

No words all the way.

Li Xunxun took Zhao Wengang up the mountain in this way.

Li Xunxun, who came up at this time, also brought a monk with him, and he was still a monk at the Dan Jie stage. He quickly attracted the attention of the monks present at the Dan Jie banquet.

Most of the foundation-building monks who came from the foundation-building forces could recognize that he was a monk from the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom when they first saw Zhao Wengang.

"Fellow Daoist He, am I right? This is an alchemy monk from the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom. Check it out."

"They are really from the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom... I didn't expect them to be there." Someone will be sent to attend the Dan Dan Banquet hosted by the Li family.”

"I don't know if it's good or bad for them?"

"In my opinion, it's probably not good. The Li family that continues to be strong is not a good thing for the Zhao royal family."

Seeing this situation, some foundation-building monks have begun to use spiritual power to communicate through sound transmission.

Moreover, there is something wrong with the positioning of Li Xunxun and the alchemy-forming monk from the Zhao royal family. Li Xunxun actually reached the top first. From a courtesy point of view, this is not a friendly reminder.

“It’s a pill-forming monk again, but I don’t think I’ve seen this one before. Have you seen it?”

"I haven't seen it."

"I don't know either, but our Zhao country's immortal world also has fourteen alchemy-forming forces. He can only come from one of them..."

Compared to foundation building The foundation-building monks of the power, the Qi-refining monks of the Qi-refining power affiliated to the Li family, knew that Zhao Wengang was a member of the Zhao royal family and a Dan-forming monk.

They have never seen it at all, nor have they seen the portrait. For the Qi refining forces, the overall level of their contact is still too low.

If they had not come to the Li family to attend the Dan-Jie Banquet, many of them would never have been able to see the Dan-Jie monks in their lives.

The foundation-building monks communicated with each other spiritually to avoid being overheard. They, the group of Qi-refining monks, were just whispering among themselves, but they were just curious about the visitor, and did not say anything bad, nor were they worried about others listening. Go in.

Furthermore, they knew very well that their insignificant weight would not attract the attention of the alchemy monks.

When Li Xunxu brought Zhao Wengang up to the place where the alchemy monks gathered together, he immediately looked over.

There are eight alchemy monks here, half of them are from the Li family. They are stationed in Li Xunming, Weishui County. Unless there are very special circumstances, the family alchemy banquet must come back to participate. If it is a foundation banquet, If so, it is very likely that he is still in Weishui County.

The other four are Zuoqiu Lipeng from Qingfeng Valley, Wei Gongshi of Longhui Wei family, Fang Mingchang of Xiayong Fang family, and Zhang Jinling of Qiuhe Zhang family.

The Wei family and the Fang family, like the Li family, are all affiliated forces of the Tianhe Sect, but the Zhang family in Qiuhe County is different. Qiuhe County is within the sphere of influence of Tianchuan Mountain, and the Zhang family is an affiliated force of Tianchuan Mountain. Li Qiuben did not invite the monks from the Qiuhe Zhang family to the Dan Festival. Like the Xinyue Shen family, they came over on their own initiative.

The Zhang family, which has dual alchemy monks, even though it is far away from the Li family, still sent the alchemy monks here just to make good friends with the Li family.

Among the three affiliated alchemy cultivating families in Tianchuan Mountain, the Qiu He and Zhang family have the best reputation. Like the Li family, they attach great importance to the family's reputation.

Fang Mingchang saw Zhao Wengang from the Zhao royal family, and he was the first to have an idea in his mind. He felt that the show was about to begin.

The Zhao royal family chose this time to send a pill-forming monk here. It was impossible to actually come here. He was just attending Li Qiuben's pill-forming banquet to congratulate Li Qiuben.

These alchemy cultivating families have a very average impression of the Zhao royal family, especially after the Zhao royal family cooperated with Tianhe Sect and finally sold Tianhe Sect directly.

Of course, the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom is very powerful, and they don’t particularly care about the views of their alchemy cultivating families. Even if they are looking for a partner to cooperate with, they won’t be those who only have one or two alchemy cultivators. Cultivation family.

On the other side, Zhao Wengang, who came up, saw eight pill-forming monks.

Especially when he saw the Qingfeng Valley Danjie elder, the situation was different from what he thought.

He came to the Li family to attend the Dan Formation Banquet, and one more task was to see how many Dan Formation monks came to the Li Family's Dan Formation Banquet.

Only look at the alchemy monks, not the alchemy forces.

A core-forming force normally sends foundation-building monks to attend the core-forming banquet. It doesn’t think that it must be on good terms with the Li family, but it doesn’t want to be on bad terms with the Li family, so it sends a core-forming cultivator here because it still wants to be on good terms with the Li family. Try it.

The one who came from Qingfeng Valley was not the Foundation Establishment Elder, but the Danjie Elder. This made Zhao Wengang confused, and this person was Zuoqiu Lipeng.

According to the news, Zuoqiu Lipeng came to fight with the monks of the Li family. There are various reasons for this. Their royal family prefers the two. There should be a certain contradiction, but not a big one, otherwise Nor will they choose to fight for solutions.

Could it be that after the problem was solved, Zuoqiu Lipeng felt that the Li family was good?

Even if this is the case, the owner of Qingfeng Valley must know that he came to attend the Li family's elixir knotting banquet.

Facing the Li family with four knots, Zhao Wengang didn't quite understand why Qingfeng Valley would do this... You know, once the Li family develops, it will also be a threat to them. When the strength of the affiliated forces exceeds When it is the main force, then this main force is a joke.

Zuoqiu Lipeng came here for the same purpose as me?

Soon, Zhao Wengang thought of this possibility. If this was the case, it would really make sense.

The situation is still uncertain, but he can try Zuoqiu Lipeng's attitude later.

In less than half a breath, Zhao Wengang thought a lot.

After about a breath, the head of the Li family came to him.

“It turns out that he is a fellow Taoist from the royal family, which is really rare.” Li Qianqing looked at Zhao Wengang in front of him and smiled.

At the peak of the early stage of pill formation, it seems that the breakthrough failed once.

Within a moment, Li Qianqing could tell from Zhao Wengang's aura that he had not tried to break through to the middle stage of pill formation, but had broken through several times.

Among the pill-forming monks, there are also many monks who are stuck at the peak of the early stages of pill-forming and cannot move forward in their lives.

"Hahaha, Patriarch Li, don't you see it now?" Zhao Wengang also smiled, and then he said, "Everyone who comes is a guest, and Patriarch Li's family is very good at hospitality." "I still need to improve."

Zhao Wengang said this, obviously dissatisfied with Li Xunxun's reception of him below, that is, he did not treat him as a guest.

"The visitor is not necessarily a guest. The so-called hospitality requires that the other party is a guest." Li Qianqing looked at Zhao Wengang like this, "Zhao Daoyou, do you think I am right?"


The moment Li Qianqing finished speaking, looking at Li Qianqing's seemingly harmless eyes, I didn't know why his hair stood on end.

Zhao Wengang felt the emotion of fear.

As a monk who has been cultivating alchemy for more than a hundred years, he is very confident in his feelings.

He feels that Li Qianqing is in danger now. That should be a real danger. The opponent is only in the middle stage of pill formation. Normally he would not have such emotions, unless the opponent is really as rumored and not ordinary. A monk who is in the middle stage of pill formation, he may have the strength in the late stage of pill formation.

The rumors were all false. At this moment, Zhao Wengang felt that he had personally verified the news.

"Yes." Zhao Wengang nodded involuntarily.

Zhao Wengang was very surprised by his current behavior. In his heart, he was unwilling to admit that he was following his heart.

“It seems that Fellow Daoist Zhao also understands.” Li Qianqing looked back and smiled again, “fellow Daoist Zhao, please come inside.”

Li Qianqing walked in front, and Zhao Wengang followed behind.

He followed absent-mindedly.

He is now thinking that if Li Qianqing's strength has really reached the level of the late stage of pill formation, then the current Li family will be more difficult to deal with than the previous Tianhe Sect. If they really want to eliminate them, they will have to pay a huge price.

The Zhao royal family still likes to do the greatest thing with the least effort, so it would be the best if they could cooperate with Qingfeng Valley again.

Li Xunxun looked at Zhao Wengang’s back strangely.

He wondered if he had heard it wrong just now. Zhao Wengang actually nodded in agreement with what Grandpa Thirteen said. This did not mean that Zhao Wengang admitted that he was not a guest.

‘Grandpa Thirteen didn’t seem to do anything to him just now. ’

Li Xunxun, who couldn't figure it out, didn't think about it anymore. The Dancing Banquet was about to begin. Judging from Zhao Wengang's behavior just now, he probably wouldn't do anything outrageous at this Dancing Banquet.

Li Qiuben's elixir knotting banquet officially began. Li Qianqing, the patriarch of the family, presided over the elixir knotting banquet. After some speeches, Li Qiuben himself also said a few words.

Compared with what Li Qianqing said, Li Qiuben's speech was more formal, as if he was reciting the entire text without any improvisation on the spot.

After a brief contact, all the monks with the surname Jiedan present found that Li Qiuben, the monk from the Li family who formed the pill this time, really spoke very little. If you didn’t take the initiative to talk to him, he wouldn’t say anything.

As time goes by, the owner of this pill-forming banquet attracts less and less attention.

"Elder Zuoqiu, how come you are free to attend the Dan Dan Banquet at Li's house this time?" Zhao Wengang asked. He did not speak, but used spiritual power to transmit his voice.

However, at this moment, he noticed that Li Qianqing glanced at him and smiled at him.

Discovered?

Zhao Wengang was a little nervous. Spiritual power transmission is usually relatively hidden, but Li Qianqing could notice it directly, indicating that he might have practiced some special secret technique or special technique.

Li Qianqing’s previous adventures, according to the information investigated by the Zhao royal family, he obtained a lot of good things.

"Do you have any objections to me, Fellow Daoist Zhao?" Unlike Zhao Wengang's spiritual voice transmission, Zuoqiu Lipeng spoke directly.

His opening attracted the attention of all the alchemy monks present. (End of this chapter)
