Regarding the issue of the Blood Demon Puppet, Li Xiangnan did not delve into it.

However, after knowing the strength and hole cards of the black robe shadow, Li Xiangnan had a plan in his heart when he came to deal with this person.

Following the direction where the black-robed man had fled, Li Xiangnan just released the corpse of Emperor Yang to track his whereabouts, and then returned to Shicun.

The closer you are to success, the more motivated and passionate you are.

Shi Yuan and the others have been nervously calculating the coordinates of the spatial secret passage these days, although there are many forces outside who are watching their movements, and they will make a show at first.

But now, as the process deepens, they don't bother to spend that time to do it for outsiders to see, so they simply stay in the stone village and don't go out again.

After Li Xiangnan returned to Shicun, he told several people about the results of his exploration and experiment, which can be said to provide an extremely important clue.

After Shi Yuan and the others had this information, based on this clue, they broke through a huge bottleneck that had plagued them in the past few days and made further progress.

And this result also made several people very excited, and they began to analyze and calculate data almost day and night, which seemed very crazy.

After Li Xiangnan handed over this matter to Shi Yuan and these professionals, he didn't stay in the secret room for long, so he went to the stone tool workshop.

The stone workshop has always been run by Lin Hua.

However, in recent times, they have basically given up their business activities, and Lin Hua is basically like a housekeeper, taking care of the logistics and life of several workaholics in Shiyuan. If you encounter something important, or something that you can't handle, you will report to Li Xiangnan.

Two strangers in purple robes and blue robes came to the stone village, and Li Xiangnan noticed their movements early in the morning.

After the two entered the stone village, they came straight towards the stone workshop, and they did not escape Li Xiangnan's eyes.

So when Li Xiangnan came to the stone workshop, the purple-robed man and the blue-robed man handed over the worship stickers, and Lin Hua was entertaining the two of them, preparing to send the worship stickers, and happened to meet Li Xiangnan when he went out.

took the greeting sticker handed over by Lin Hua. Li Xiangnan looked at it. He didn't go to the hall to see those two people immediately, but he was a little curious about the sect above the worship sticker, and said, "Uncle Lin, do you know what the origin of this blood smoke gate is?" ”

Lin Hua has been in charge of collecting and probing information. In addition, Shicun is at the junction of the Western Regions and the Northern Regions of the Secret Martial Arts. So it's also very well-informed about the surrounding news.

I heard Li Xiangnan ask about it. He said: "This Blood Smoke Gate is a new force that has recently risen and made a name for itself, and before that, they have been developing very low-key. When the Nine Great Sects attacked the Mingxiao Sect, they took advantage of this opportunity to annex dozens of sect forces of various sizes in the Western Regions of the Secret Martial Arts, and then swallowed some of the interests of some traditional forces in the Western Regions and the Northern Regions. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Hua said again: "However, the grapevine spreads that the founder of this Blood Smoke Gate is a witch named Red Lotus from the upper realm, and the means of this Blood Smoke Gate are very clever, and it has attracted many masters to join, but it acts domineering and ruthless, so it is considered to be a ...... Demon Dao Sect."

Hearing Lin Hua talk about this, Li Xiangnan suddenly realized.

But this is also inevitable, for the situation of the red lotus, Li Xiangnan still has a deep understanding of that woman, fled to the secret martial arts gate with hatred, first went to the earth to fulfill the ancestors' wishes, unscrupulously looted resources, and then established a force, its development process is really in line with her character, very fast and powerful.

It's just that the woman has established power, and the ultimate goal is to return to the secret world to avenge blood hatred, her wisdom and means, Li Xiangnan has taught, can recruit many masters to join in such a short period of time, which also shows that this woman's strength should be further improved, and at the same time, her methods and skills are more sleek than before.

And now, the person from the Blood Smoke Gate came to contact him, Li Xiangnan thought about it, there should be the woman's instructions.

After knowing this, Li Xiangnan went to the hall.

However, as soon as he entered the hall, Li Xiangnan's gaze swept over the middle-aged man in a purple robe, and then fell to a young man in a blue robe next to him.

This young man has changed very much now, the whole person is introverted, his edge is hidden, and he looks more calm.

It's just that now, the young man's expression is extremely complicated, especially after seeing Li Xiangnan enter the hall, for some reason, he involuntarily lowered his head.

Seeing him lower his head and look embarrassed, Li Xiangnan couldn't help but feel a little dazed, as if he thought back to the innocent years of the university, and the same dormitory, sleeping next to him, in the class because of his cowardly personality and low self-esteem, he was often bullied and teased.

It's just that now, every qiē has become a memory, and the young man who was once cowardly and inferior has completely become a different person, already a powerful sixth-level secret martial artist, but deep in his heart, it is precisely because he still retains the indelible feelings of the past, let alone how to face some things in the past, that he can't help but bow his head at this moment.

This young man is Wang Chao, a classmate who once spent four years together in the same dormitory.

It was the incident that made Li Xiangnan feel unfamiliar and alienated from Wang Chao, and it was the incident where his good brother Guo Meng was kidnapped.

Because of that incident, Li Xiangnan has always guessed that Wang Chao planned and implemented it, but he didn't want to confirm it, nor did he want to investigate it, he cherished the brotherhood he once had, so when he left, he didn't tell Guo Meng about it, he didn't want Guo Meng to hold a grudge because of this incident.

It's just that now that time has passed, Li Xiangnan has come to the Secret Martial Arts, Wang Chao has also come to the Secret Martial Arts, and Li Xiangnan and Wang Chao have also embarked on different paths in life.

Even if there may be any intersection between them, Li Xiangnan's mood is changing now, and he naturally won't take the previous things to heart, but he won't take the brotherhood between the two too much.

Now that he faces Wang Chao again, he can only treat him as an ordinary friend he knows, that's all.

So after Li Xiangnan entered the hall, he didn't wait for the purple-robed person to introduce him, he just nodded to Wang Chao and said, "Xiaochao, haven't seen you for a long time?" ”

Wang Chaozheng didn't know how to face this good brother who had been of great help to him, and he had also done some things to be sorry for his brother, and he buried the friendship between his brothers with his own hands, so he always felt guilty in his heart.

He didn't want to come this time, but the head of the house spoke, and this time he had to come.

No matter what the result is, no matter whether the other party still cares about his former affection, maybe it is only when he treats a stranger or even an enemy, if he can't pass this level, then the cultivation realm will never be able to break through, so he still came.

And now, when he heard Li Xiangnan take the initiative to say hello, but Wang Chao heard that in the calm words of the other party, there was no longer the taste of brotherhood that he once had, it was just a very ordinary way of greeting friends.

But it was precisely because of this that Wang Chao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and relieved a little embarrassment, so he raised his head and said, "Xiangnan, long time no see!" ”

Xu Tianchuan was not surprised to see Li Xiangnan take the initiative to wave with Wang Chao, when he came, he already knew the relationship between Wang Chao and this Li Xiangnan.

So he smiled, first introduced himself, and then said: "Mr. Li, please forgive Xu for taking the liberty of coming to disturb, Xu also knows about your previous relationship with Wang Chao, as well as some unpleasant things that happened."

However, this time Xu brought Wang Chao here, not to make friends, but Wang Chao has a knot, and the director can't break through, and the head thinks that it is necessary for him to meet you, and this time Xu came to visit, and he also had something to discuss, so he brought Wang Chao here, please forgive me! ”

Li Xiangnan didn't know what the other party was looking for him, so he didn't ask, but looked at Wang Chao and said: "With your current cultivation strength, it seems that you have been working hard, and it is not easy to reach the current stage.

After leaving the earth, all the things that happened before have disappeared, and you and Guo Meng may no longer have any intersection, but you should also know his personality, and you will no longer pursue the rights and wrongs of this matter, and he will distinguish everything from him, and you don't need to disturb yourself.

For me, you don't have to feel any guilt, I understand the path you have chosen, and I haven't taken the previous things to heart, you are relieved.

But as the best friend of the past, I have a piece of advice, since you have made such a choice, and in your heart, there has always been a bottom line, I hope that no matter how far you can go in the future, you can stick to this bottom line, I will always watch you, once one day, if you can't hold on, you can come to me! ”

Hearing this, Wang Chao's eyes were a little moist, and he couldn't help but nod heavily: "I understand!" ”

And at that moment, Wang Chao's state of mind also began to undergo some subtle changes.

Xu Tianchuan next to him couldn't help but be very surprised in his heart, he could completely feel it, the change in mood at this moment would also make this person also undergo huge changes, no wonder he would be favored by the master, it seems that this son's talent is really not low, he has such a great prospect at such an age, I am afraid that except for the perverted Li Xiangnan in front of him, no one can match, in terms of cultivation qualifications, this son should be the second person in ancient and modern times.

Li Xiangnan also saw some changes in Wang Chao, since Wang Chao's heart knot is here with him, then now when he helps Wang Chao untie this heart knot, Wang Chao's road will be much smoother. (To be continued......)
