At the same time, a group of people in the ancestral hall of the Li clan were surrounding an oil lamp and holding a combat meeting. The faint light shone equally on every serious and heavy young face. All of the attendees were young, none of them over 30.

The current patriarch of the Li clan lingered on the sick bed and did not attend, so all matters were temporarily managed by Li Yi.

Li Yu took off the Li Greedy Sword on his back, buckled it on the table in front of him, and said solemnly: "I think you are all clear about the current situation. Jinyunlan's attitude is also very clear, Jinyun will never compromise with us. Therefore, I still advocate that all the existing combat forces of the Li clan be gathered and fight to the death with Jinyun. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, all of them hanging their heads, silent.

Li Tang said worriedly: "But the Li clan is invincible at the moment, and how can he confront the Jinyun people. With fewer enemies, I am afraid that the effect will be very small. “

Li Li echoed: "Li Tang is right. The situation is extremely unfavorable for us. Li Yi, your decision is too rash, and if you are not careful, you will lose all the games. What's more, we have been in hiding from the world for a long time, and we don't know Jinyun's true strength, and if we attack ignorantly, we don't know the situation of hitting a stone with an egg. ”

Li Yi insisted on his opinion: "The Li family has long been at the end of the road. Before you insisted on dying and struggling, I also followed your wishes and took the daughter of the Jinyun patriarch up the mountain to test Jinyun's attitude. As Jinyunlan said, even if we send the letter, Jinyun is insensitive and sinister, and will never compromise with us for the sake of a woman. Fortunately, the kidnapping letter has not yet been sent, and we have not been alarmed. Now we have enough time to prepare for battle. ”

"You still haven't answered the question of unequal combat power head-on, how to solve it? You don't have to boast of being strong, you have no scruples! Li Jin was angry and slapped the case fiercely.

Li Yan was a little impatient, and responded to his raging anger with a cold gaze, "According to the current situation, we are just waiting for death. We are high on a dangerous mountain, and we have no food, how can we survive? Rather than hiding in the mountains and waiting for the day when the clan was bullied by Jinyun until it was completely destroyed, it was better to do nothing and rush down the mountain to turn Los Angeles upside down. ”

"So you insist on breaking the cauldron and fighting Jinyun to the death, whether you are dead or injured."

Li Yi replied: "So far, do we still have a choice?" ”

"What's the worst-case scenario?"

After Li Yi was silent for a while, he replied in a deep voice: "The whole army is destroyed." The Li clan is completely extinct in this world. ”

The atmosphere condensed again, and the mountain breeze on the March night was bleak and desolate, like a homeless man, his body swaying and constantly hitting the tight windows.

Li Jin's eyes were red, and when she thought of her deceased wife, she couldn't help but cry sadly: "What about my rose?" The peony has left me, is it possible that the rose will die sooner? She was only seven years old and had not had a good day. ”

Li Tang patted him on the shoulder gloomily, silently comforting.

Li Li was also touched by sorrow and wiped away her tears.

All of a sudden, the sound of whimpering in the room was one after another, and for a time it drowned out the cold wind howling outside the window. It's raining outside. The rain feet are like numbness, and the brushes are smashed on the ground, just like the chaotic mood of everyone.

Halfway through the night, thunder ran rampant in the air. Lightning frolicked like a dragon in the tumbling clouds. The deafening sound of thunder pierced through the flickering light and darkness of the world, and hit everyone's ears with unmistakable accuracy.

At this time, Li Yi said in a condensed voice: "We all have lost relatives here. My father is also dying. It is not this world that brings us bad luck, but Jinyun. Killing them can be regarded as the best explanation for our deceased relatives. ”

The oil lamp on the countertop finally ran out, and the bean-sized point of light shrank to invisible, and finally turned into an insignificant wisp of green smoke after a flash of lightning and thunder. The pungent smell brushed the tips of everyone's noses one after another.

Li Yi suddenly crossed a snow light in his mind, and "Teng" stood up, "It's not good." They're going to run away! Before he could finish speaking, he rushed out the door with his sword, followed by the rest of the group.

The group ran all the way to the entrance of the secret passage in the night rain of March.

At this time, Jinyun Lan and Consummation Fang arrived near the entrance, and their hands just touched the huge stone block that covered the entrance. Standing on the side was the innocent Li Qiang, her hands were constantly wiping the rain on her face, her eyes were so beaten by the rain that she couldn't open them, and she was still shouting and cheering for them......

"Rose!" Li Jin shouted her daughter's name in the distance.

This call attracted the attention of the three of them.

Jinyun Lan saw that her movements were noticed by the Li clan, and seeing them approaching this side, she increased the force in her hand. However, at this moment, the consummation chose to turn around, pulled Rose to the front, and put her right hand under her armpit, lifting her up as a hostage to deter the incoming.

She raised her voice and shouted, "Don't come here! Let us go, or the child's life will be lost!" ”

The crowd really stopped, and in the dense rain, they glared at them angrily.

"Sure enough, the Jinyun people are a group of vicious people." Li Yan cursed gloomily.

Jin Yunlan was surprised when she saw it. This style of behavior made her very uncomfortable, and she shouted out the name of Chenggong in great displeasure and ordered her to let go of Li Qiang.

Consummation turned around and persuaded her: "Miss, I am also forced to do so." There are many of them, and we can't defeat them, so we can only temporarily grieve this girl. Don't worry, I won't hurt her. ”

Jin Yunlan's face was still pale, and she didn't ease her mind at all, "Li Qiang saved us, how can we be ungrateful." Let her go! ”

"Miss!" Consummation is still hesitating, holding on to this life-saving straw and refusing to let go.

Li Qiang was covered with her mouth, not noisy, not noisy or struggling, and a pair of big black eyes slowly turned in her sockets. Her eyes were full of water, and she didn't know whether it was the rain that seeped in or the tears that overflowed. When she silently cast her injured gaze on Jinyunlan, Jinyunlan's heart was like a knife.

She stepped forward and snatched Li Qiang from the crook of her stubborn arm. She gently put her down, straightened her disheveled clothes, took out a handkerchief to wipe the rain off her face, and comforted her softly: "Go, go to your father's." She nudged her back as she spoke.

Li Qiang trotted and ran to Li Jin, hugged her father's legs, and was then protected by her father.

Jinyunlan took a step forward, crossed her hands, and shouted: "Something is coming at me, it has nothing to do with my maid." Although she said this, in fact, her strength has not fully recovered, and she has little chance of winning.

Li Yi immediately pulled out the Li Greedy Sword behind his back, and the bubbling purple qi tightly surrounded the silver-white sword body, but it was not scattered by the rain.

When the long sword was unsheathed, a hint of madness appeared in Li Yi's resolute eyes.

Jinyunlan immediately jumped into the air, crossed everyone's heads, and ran towards the top of the cliff.

"This man is given to you, and she is to me." After that, Li Yi chased after him with his sword.

The two stepped into the bamboo forest one after another.

Li Yu stopped chasing in an instant, and his alert blue eyes turned around several times in his sockets. Dense and shrill tearing sounds were heard in all directions, and thousands of bamboo leaves fell from the sky, turning into sharp blades, cutting through the evil wind and raindrops, and stabbing at him impartially.

Li Yi immediately swung his sword in the rain, and the sword light flew like a meteor, splitting all the dense bamboo leaves, but not a single leaf touched his body.

The dense leaves fell, and Jin Yunlan suddenly appeared behind him, and before Li Yi could turn around, he slashed at his heart with a palm, but he suddenly hesitated halfway, turned the direction hard, and hit him on the shoulder.

It's just that the joy is replaced by fear before it appears.

She lowered her head slowly, looking in surprise at her waist, pierced by the sword.

Her sluggish gaze followed the blade of her own blood-stained sword, past the waist of the man in front of her. The hilt of the sword was held in his hand, and he didn't even bother to turn back and fight her. It wasn't until the moment he stabbed her that he turned his head slightly and gave her a smile that was extremely contemptuous and even implicitly sarcastic.

Jinyun Lan took a sharp step back, causing the cold Sword Peak to withdraw from her body. The bloodstains on the sword were swallowed up by the purple qi in an instant, restoring their silver-white light.

She covered her wounds, barely managed to make a stealth trick, and quickly hid her figure and traces. In the next moment, she was a hundred paces away, but she knew that with Li Yu's sense, she would soon find her traces. She could only run as far as she could.

Raindrops fell on the land of the bamboo forest like broken jade, smashing out depressions one after another. And her messy steps flattened every puddle.

Her rapid gasps washed away the moisture in the bamboo forest. The mud splattered everywhere and stained the hem. Battered, she was no longer able to care about the smoothness of her clothes. The bloody wounds were washed away by the rain, and the bright red blood was diluted into a soft pink, splashing indiscriminately on his cheeks along with the transparent raindrops.

Biting her pale lip, she reached the edge of the empty mountain, and staggered into a hidden rock crevice in the gloomy sky. When squeezed between the two boulders, the wound tore a few more points. She was sweating in pain, but she still endured the pain, maintained a clear consciousness, and cast spells to heal herself.

It's just that she finished stitching up the wound on her waist, and Li Yi easily found her shelter.

Li Greed Sword, who was hungry and thirsty for blood, seemed to covet her blood. The purple qi that wrapped around the sword body floated straight towards her hiding place.

Li Yi looked in the direction, stabbed the blade of the sword steadily into the rock gap, and went straight to the center of Jinyunlan's eyebrows.

Jin Yunlan immediately bent down. The sharp blade brushed against her jaw, and there was only a fraction of a distance left. She rolled backwards and escaped from the rock gap, then stretched out her palms and pressed against the rock wall, using all her strength to move the two rocks alive in the middle.

With a "bang", the two stones collided, clamping Li Yuan's sword and sticking it tightly, temporarily stopping Li Yu's rapid movements.

Li Yi was not in a hurry, with a twist of his wrist, he turned the sword body sideways, and the two rocks suddenly split apart, turned into several large and small stones, and splashed out.

Jinyun Lan staggered back a few steps, then turned around and rushed towards the barrier. She clenched her fists, determined to break the barrier of the empty mountain with brute force and escape. It's just that her vitality is greatly damaged, and it doesn't matter how much she succeeds.
