Chapter 31: Rumors Spread

On Linyuan Island, the change in the promotion of the spiritual vein of Wangyuan Mountain has become one of the hot topics of discussion among the monks.

It didn't take long for the news that the Wangyuan Mountain Spirit Vein had been promoted to the second order and that the Su family had sent Elder Zhuji to come and garrison it, as if it had planted wings, spread rapidly.

Unlike in the past, this time Su Ziming not only ordered someone to secretly add fuel to the fire, but also ordered to prohibit the spread of news.

However, paper can't contain the fire after all, and it didn't take long for some foundation-building forces to notice the anomaly on Linyuan Island.

On Biyun Islandβ€”On Biyun Peak, a lean-looking old man looked at a letter in his hand.

The pupils inadvertently shrank slightly, and a sharp light flashed at the bottom of the eyes.

I couldn't help but mutter, "The Su family is so vigorously cultivating a remote spiritual vein advancement, what is the purpose of taking so much pains. ”

A middle-aged monk with sparse eyebrows and sharp-beaked monkey cheeks speculated on the sidelines:

"Uncle Qingyun, didn't Su Jiamo find any scarce mineral veins here, and he wants to continue to develop the name of this place to cover it."

"If it's really as Jihu expected, we can't let the Su family have this resource alone!"

Yang Jilong, the second elder of the Yang family, spoke in a resolute tone, a hatred flashed in his eyes, and he spoke.

Great Elder Yang Qingyun looked at the two and couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "It's too early to say these things at this time, it's better to send someone to Linyuan Island to explore the Su family's old bottom first." ”

Yang Jilong stood up, patted his chest and said, "Uncle Qingyun, I'll go to Linyuan Island to explore the bottom of the Su family. ”

"Big brother, you are a dignified foundation cultivator, the goal is too big, I'm afraid that before you leave Biyun Island, I'm afraid that the news from Biyunfang City will reach the Su family."

The third elder, Yang Jihu, hurriedly vetoed his eldest brother's ridiculous decision.

Yang Qingyun, who had been silent, glanced at Yang Jihu with appreciation, and then decided:

"Jihu is right, this matter will be handed over to Jihu; As for Jilong, I see that you are about to break through the middle stage of foundation building, so stay in the clan and cultivate with peace of mind. ”

"Yes."

Yang Jilong knew that he was usually very arrogant, and it might not be suitable for this kind of thing to spy on intelligence, so he didn't continue to take it seriously.

At this moment, the closest foundation-building force to Linyuan Island is in the Anping Island Liu family.

Liu Ruyan, the patriarch of the Liu family, sat on the main seat, and the elders of the Qi cultivation period gathered together.

After listening to the report of the children of the Liu family, Liu Ruyan looked at the old elders below, and his heart suddenly had mixed feelings, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

If the rise of Linyuan Island has the greatest impact on which forces, the Liu family on Anping Island will inevitably bear the brunt.

The loss of a large number of scattered cultivators and small forces has reduced the Liu family's business by a full third.

This incident is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Liu family, who have just improved in recent years.

There was silence for I don't know how long, Liu Ruyan, who was sitting on the main seat, finally couldn't help but speak:

"Although my Liu family is just a subsidiary family under the command of the Su family, the Su family is really not kind this time, I don't know what your uncles and uncles think?"

As soon as these words came out, the old men below began to look at each other, and none of them would take the lead in speaking.

In the end, it was under the recommendation of everyone that one of the oldest people finally stood up and said:

"It's like smoke, the Su family is powerful, we can't afford to offend, it's better to let him go!"

Liu Ruyan directly ignored him, looked at the rest of the elders with sharp eyes, and asked sharply:

"Do the elders think the same way?"

"Back to the family master, we think what the Great Elder said is reasonable."

The rest of the elders nodded in agreement.

Liu Ruyan swept over the elders in front of him with a sharp gaze, and asked sternly:

"Doesn't anyone see it differently?"

The people below were still silent, and even some of the monks couldn't hold their breath.

At this moment, a one-armed old man who looked like he was in his last years staggered in, looked at everyone and sneered:

"Okay..., my Liu family is also at the peak of incense, and there are two hundred monks in the clan, and they can't compare to a little girl like smoke."

"Is it really time for my Liu family to be poor!!

"Third Uncle, Third Uncle..."

Seeing the one-armed old man appear, everyone stood up one after another.

The one-armed old man walked directly past everyone and towards Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ruyan hurriedly got up and greeted him, squeezed out a little smile on his face and asked:

"Third grandfather, why are you here?"

Looking at Liu Ruyan's concerned gaze, a smile appeared on the one-armed old man's face full of vicissitudes, and he said:

"I've heard about Linyuan Island, so I guessed that this group of talented people can't think of any good way, and grandpa came to give you ideas."

After listening to the words of the visitor, Liu Ruyan's eyes suddenly became rosy, and he blamed himself: "It's all Ruyan's incompetence, and you have to worry about family affairs at your age." ”

"Like smoke, the Su family's focus on cultivating Linyuan Island is not a bad thing for our Liu family."

The one-armed old man said with a smile.

Liu Ruyan showed a puzzled look when she heard this.

The one-armed old man continued:

"Once Linyuan Island grows and grows, in the future, once a beast tide breaks out in the surrounding sea area, there will naturally be a tall Su family on top, and my Liu family can also take this opportunity to recuperate."

Liu Ruyan's face suddenly showed a look of sudden realization.

You must know that the Liu family fifty years ago was also a strong family, although it was not as good as the Su family, it also had two great monks in the foundation, and one of them broke through to the middle stage of foundation building.

However, at that time, an unprecedented beast tide broke out in this sea area, and the Liu family, as the only foundation building force in this sea area, naturally raised the banner.

In that battle, the two monks of the Liu family died and the two great monks of the foundation were abolished, and the Liu family was in a slump since then, until Liu Ruyan lived up to expectations and successfully built the foundation, and the situation of the Liu family improved.

The one-armed old man continued:

"In the early stage of the development of Linyuan Island, our Liu family may lose some customers, resulting in a loss of profits."

"But if we can seize this opportunity to strengthen our relationship with Linyuan Island, and when Linyuan Island develops into a big island like Qingjiao Island, our Liu family may be able to use this to restore its former glory."

After listening to the old man's words, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, after all, she didn't want the Liu family to be ruined in her own hands.

Within a few days, the Liu family grabbed a first-order mid-grade spirit vein on Linyuan Island, and opened the Liu family's dart game on it.

The Liu family arranged for two Qi Cultivation Great Perfection monks to come to the dart game.

Some monks saw that the Liu family had taken the lead in reacting, and they followed closely to buy real estate on Linyuan Island, and built restaurants, inns, and shops on a large scale.

Suddenly, the land price of the entire Linyuan Island skyrocketed, and the old local forces such as the Song family and the Wang family took the opportunity to make a lot of money.

However, I don't know when, there are some rumors on Linyuan Island that have no end in sight - the Su family has found a medium-sized spirit stone vein near Linyuan Island.

As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

It didn't take long for the news to spread.

Upon learning of this, Su Changshou angrily ordered all the stewards on Linyuan Island to make every effort to arrest the spies sent by the major forces.

In just a few days, several spies were arrested.

For these people, Su Changshou ordered to be directly executed, and the corpses were hung under Wangyuan Mountain.

For a while, the gossip on Linyuan Island gradually decreased, but the spies of various forces were still endless.

Su Ziming, who was cultivating elixir in the medicine field, immediately sensed that someone was behind the scenes after hearing about this.

He immediately found Su Changshou and said that the Su family was not afraid of shadows, and dissuaded Su Changshou from stopping the arrest of spies from all sides.

Su Ziming said seriously:

"Grandpa, the best way to solve lies is to let them expose the lies themselves."
