Chapter 333: Family Dabi
Because he found that the resting place was particularly suitable for cultivating the Xuantian Nine Changes, Li Ling stayed in the central area of the resting place for three more days.
Although the time was very short, and he was not able to open another acupoint, Li Ling obviously felt that the true yuan in his body was more full, maybe it would not be long before his body refining technique would have a new breakthrough, and he really wanted to know what the acupoint he would open next would be.
Looking at the empty resting place, a different kind of emotion suddenly welled up in his heart, there is no soul fire here, from now on this place has no use value for human beings, thousands of years later, people will not completely forget it?
This time things went very smoothly, and all the soul fires were driven into the pseudo-underground mansion, so it was impossible for the people of the Liu family to refine the Illusion Demon Pill again, unless they improved the pill again or re-activated the old method, and used the life of the supernatural to refine the pill.
The ancestor of the Liu family originally wanted to use the sales of this elixir to gather power, but he didn't expect that in the end it would be just a void, and their Liu family not only didn't catch anything, but folded all the investment into it.
The Liu family's domineering behavior in the resting place also attracted the attention of others, and the Liu family became more and more unpopular in the Federation. Although I can't see the harm of this matter for a short time, it is even more terrifying, because the Liu family will never know how many people they have offended, and when they gain power, there will be nothing, once the Liu family declines, these people will remember that they were bullied.
The people of the Liu family rely on the power accumulated by their ancestors, they don't know how to restrain themselves, and they don't know how to buy people's hearts. But with so many people staring at the Liu family, how could they get better?
Now that the matter has been done, Li Ling naturally wants to go back and return to the capital star through his ability space again. Dong Zhuofan told him the news that the family competition was about to start, and the great elder wanted him to participate on behalf of the Dong family.
Li Ling had heard of this family competition more than once, and not only that, but he also remembered that the nine family competitions on the Qianyuan Star were preparing for this competition.
"Your Dong family has already received the support of these eight families, are you still worried that this competition will not succeed?"
In fact, Li Ling hates that these people are always comparing and coming, in his impression. This kind of friendship competition is not very helpful to one's spiritual practice, and only the struggle between life and death can truly stimulate one's potential.
"You won't be naΓ―ve to think that these people will really help our Dong family, as long as they don't hold us back, they will already be very kind?"
After listening to Dong Zhuofan's words, Li Ling felt very puzzled, he didn't understand that since this was the case, what was the point of the battle on Qianyuan Xing, was it just a game between these big families? Could it be that he had unknowingly become someone else's pawn again? What did the people of the Dong family think of themselves? Is it a clown?
Dong Zhuofan saw Li Ling's face change and immediately realized that he had lost his words, although Li Ling was his sister's boyfriend and was destined to become his brother-in-law in the future, he still decided to explain this matter clearly. Otherwise, not only would he be unhappy, but he was afraid that his sister would not spare him, he knew that in his sister's heart, Li Ling's status might be higher than that of his brother.
"In fact, the nine families at that time were more important than deciding the position of their respective families in the Federal Council of Elders, and the rules set by those ancestors have long since become a dead letter. β
Li Ling nodded, he already knew that the binding force of that competition was not too strong, if it weren't for this, the people of the Liu family would not have just lost the game and did something to them.
"What kind of competition is this family competition, and who are there to participate?"
Now Li Ling doesn't want to be involved in an inexplicable game in a confused way. He wants to know the truth, after all, it is very uncomfortable to be deceived by others.
"Do you know about the Federation's Anomalous War 10,000 years ago?"
Dong Zhuofan smiled and deliberately sold a pass. In fact, what he didn't know was that Li Ling knew about it, and he had seen the scattered immortal Lou Arat, who participated in this battle at that time, according to him, the main force in the battle with the cultivators at that time was not these Federation powers, Dong Zhuofan said that it was a bit of a way to elevate these powers.
Dong Zhuofan didn't notice the special expression on Li Ling's face, but continued to introduce him: "Maybe you already know that cultivators are forbidden in the Federation. But why didn't the people of our family be disturbed, because the ancestor of our Dong family surrendered to the Anomalous Capable in the Great War that year. β
"What, doesn't that mean your family's ancestor was a traitor?"
"This"
After listening to Li Ling's words, Dong Zhuofan's face immediately improved, although his words were correct, he couldn't just say it directly, right?"
Most of the existing cultivators in the Federation are those who betrayed the Cultivation Realm and supported the Paranormal. These people broke away from the cultivators and joined the federation back then, but after so many years, although the federal government did not openly attack them, they were always dealing with them in secret, so that their cultivation families gradually declined, knowing that people in the realm of the Great Elder are already rare, and with such strength, these families are no longer worth dealing with by the federal government.
"Wouldn't it? Aren't your nine families in control of the Federation's House of Elders, how can anyone still come against you?"
"You really think that the presidential palace and the House of Elders are the obvious institutions that control the entire federal government, then you are very wrong, it is not these state institutions that control the federation, but those big chaebols and hidden families, they are the real masters of the federation. β
It was the first time Li Ling had heard about the power structure of the Federation, he didn't expect that these families who controlled the House of Elders would also be so unhappy, he originally thought that these families could make their own decisions about all affairs in the Federation at will?
"Then what does all this have to do with the family Dabi?"
Dong Zhuofan thought about it carefully, and tried hard to recall what his grandfather said to him when he was a child.
"The original intention of the family competition is to make up for the shortcomings of each family's exercises through mutual learning, and most of them were just regarded as a party before, but today it is different, and his role is becoming more and more prominent. β
"Who are you going to the Dong family, won't it be just you and me?"
After talking for a long time, Li Ling remembered to ask who would go with him. (To be continued.) )
