Chapter 039: Infighting
"Brother Li Ming, we are old friends, am I going to lie to you?" Xie Zhan hurriedly comforted his brother, who was also a little unstable on his side, and said with a smile, "When I came together to look for the Qingyun Beast Cub, I had already made it clear to Brother Li Ming. This news was originally something I accidentally saw from the Xie family tree, and I can't be sure whether it's true or not. Everyone came to look for it in groups, but it was just a matter of luck, and there was no way to determine whether they had really found it. Of course, it may be that the genealogical record is wrong, and it is not necessary that we are looking in the wrong direction! ā
Li Ming's face looked a little better, but the fact that he had found nothing for many days still made him a little upset.
After thinking about it, Li Ming said: "Brother Xie Zhan, it's not that I don't believe you, but you have seen the situation these days. We didn't have the slightest clue about the Qingyun Beast, but we almost encountered the desolate beast herd several times, and we lost ourselves! In a few days, it will be the potential competition of our four major families, and although we don't have to participate, we still have to go and watch. Maybe I'll have to fight a few games and give some demonstrations to the juniors in the clan. But now...... We can't afford to run out of time! ā
Xie Zhan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although these people are said to be from the four major families, they are only the concubines in the family, and they don't get much treatment at all. Coupled with the fact that their cultivation talents were not outstanding, the situation of several people was even more difficult. It was also because of this that they joined forces under an accidental circumstance, and from time to time they entered the Great Wilderness to search for materials by themselves, so that their cultivation process could be accelerated.
And the potential competition that Li Ming said is not only unique to the Li family, but also the four major families are also going to be held. These concubines may have to come to the stage to fight a warm-up match with their descendants when the time comes, and with their already weaker strength, they will establish the identity and status of the descendants of their descendants.
But even if they lose, they want to lose beautifully!
Because there will be many clan elders who will attend the game at that time, if their table is outstanding enough, even if they lose in the game, they will be able to get the favor of the elders, and from then on they will be able to ascend to the sky!
Such examples are not uncommon in the potential races at the end of the four families every year.
Although the Qingyun Beast Cub was important, compared to the current situation, it was naturally more urgent for it to stand out in front of the elders of the clan.
"Brother Li Ming, it's better to go back to retreat and cultivate first. After the potential race is over, we will find time to come out and look for the traces of the Qingyun Beast cubs, what do you think? Xie Zhanti said.
Li Ming paused, shook his head, and said, "Brother Xie Zhan, it's not that I don't believe you. We've known each other for a few years, and I'll be straight about it. We've put so much effort into this matter this time. If you let us turn around now, everyone will definitely be unwilling. What's more, how can I be sure that after we go back, you won't bring people out quietly to continue looking for Qingyun Beast? ā
These words were explicit, but the others present did not show any angry looks, but looked at Xie Zhan with a reasonable look.
Xie Zhan also knew that Li Ming should be on guard against himself, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then Brother Li Ming, what should we do now?" ā
Li Ming and his two companions on his side exchanged glances for a few times, and then turned his head and said, "In this way, we all know that Brother Xie Zhan, you must still have the most critical secret about the Qingyun Beast news in your hands. Why don't you tell this secret so that we all know about it. During this period of the Potential Match, we supervised each other, and no one was allowed to look for the location of the Qingyun Beast in advance! I believe that everyone should be able to accept this mentions, right? ā
Xie Zhan's face instantly turned pale.
The other two members of the Li family echoed their words, and even the two Xie disciples who were with Xie Zhan were also moved, and their eyes flickered and stared at Xie Zhan.
"That's what you really want to say, right?!" Xie Zhan's gaze suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Li Ming with some darkness, "I said so much before, but it's just some nonsense." All you want is all the news about Qingyun Beast, right?! ā
Xie Zhan, who finally saw Li Ming's true intentions, lost his previous gentleness and politeness, and no longer called Li Ming a big brother.
Li Ming still had a perfect smile on his face, and said very gracefully: "Brother Xie Zhan, you misunderstood. We've known each other for several years, and we've been working together for so long, and we've never had any problems. I have always remembered the brotherhood over the years! I mention yƬ just to reassure everyone. After all, everyone has spent so much time before. I don't think anyone wants to end up with nothing, do they? ā
Xie Zhan laughed angrily at Li Ming's shamelessness.
He looked sideways at his two companions and asked, "Why, do you think the same way as him?" ā
The two Xie family members hesitated, looked at Li Ming again, and finally nodded.
Xie Zhan's stiff shoulders suddenly collapsed, and both eyes lost their lustre.
One of them even opened his mouth to persuade: "Senior Brother Zhan, in fact, what Brother Li Ming said is quite reasonable. You see, you are the only one who has pinched the news to death, and none of us know the specific situation. Why don't you tell us all the news, and we can analyze and analyze it together, maybe we can gain something? Anyway, it's a lot more convenient than the aimless search we have now, right? ā
Xie Zhan couldn't help but scold: "Don't forget, if I hadn't told you the news about the Qingyun Beast, you wouldn't even have this chance to search!" Now that I haven't found anything, you want to dismantle my platform? Then we have to see if you have the ability! ā
The Xie family, who persuaded each other, changed their faces, snorted coldly, and stopped talking.
It's really a toast without eating and drinking, a smelly and hard rotten stone!
Li Ming smiled and played the round: "Brother Xie Zhan, don't be angry, everyone is also for the same goal!" Don't be stubborn, the heads of so many of us are better than yours, aren't they? I don't think you want us to spend a lot of time looking for such an ethereal thing, do you? ā
Xie Zhan glared at Li Ming fiercely, and didn't speak for a long time.
Li Ming was not in a hurry, he didn't urge, he just gave the others a few looks.
The four of them moved their steps quietly, and they didn't seem to have changed much, but inadvertently, they formed an encirclement around Xie Zhan. As long as Xie Zhan wanted to make any moves to escape, they would be able to control him immediately!
Xie Zhan has been working with these people for several years, and he is very familiar with everyone's movements and routines. So as soon as the formation of these people came out, he immediately understood, and his heart was cold.
