Chapter 114: The Tree Wants to Be Quiet but the Wind Doesn't Stop
Li'an County Wei's family, originally suffered from the enemy on his back and was under great pressure, so he could only send a grandmaster and part of the Wuhou and Wu army to attack the Liu family, and later wanted to negotiate peace with the Liu family and concentrate on dealing with the Qiu family, but was rejected by the Liu family, so he could only send a grandmaster and part of the Wuhou Wu army to be stationed near Changfeng City for a long time, and changed from attack to defense to prevent Liu from stabbing in the back.
But not long ago, Liu took the initiative to attack and launched a big war.
In this battle, the grandmaster of the Wei clan died.
The Wu Hou and Wu army of the Wei clan stationed near Changfeng City were all wiped out.
This news not only shook the gates in Li'an County, but also spread at a hurricane-like speed.
Lu Yan put down the information, and while he was shocked in his heart, he also showed a deep groan, and his face was solemn.
"It seems that the ancestor of the Liu family has made another breakthrough."
Lu Yan pondered.
is the same internal strength grandmaster, fighting at the same level, it is very difficult to kill the opponent.
Unless it is a powerful innate martial body, or the ability of the ancestor of the Liu family to expose the martial spirit.
If there is no ability to expose the martial spirit, then there is only one situation, the ancestor of the Liu family, broke through again, and in the territory of the grandmaster, he took a small step forward.
Grandmaster Realm, is the ascension so fast?
It's only been a few years.
Ordinary people breaking through a small level in the Wuhou Realm will take ten years, let alone a grandmaster?
"Wu Ling, is it really so mysterious? It's no wonder that some people can't stand the temptation and take risks. ”
"The battle situation is like this, I don't know how it will develop in the future?"
Lu Yan pondered, and then instructed Li Quan to keep an eye on the battle situation in Li'an County with all his might, and report at any time.
In the next ten days, news came one after another.
After the Liu clan killed one of the Wei clan's grandmasters, he did not kill the Li'an City where the Wei clan was located, but instead pointed at the surrounding Wuhou-level gate lords.
As Bing Feng pointed out, those Wuhou-level gate lords surrendered one after another and took refuge in the Liu family.
Wei also did not send a large army for revenge.
The Wei clan was originally attacked on both sides, but now it has lost a grandmaster and part of the Wuhou Wu army, and its strength has been damaged a lot, and in the face of the attack of the Qiu clan in Da'an County, it can only barely protect itself, where do you dare to divide troops to attack the Liu clan.
After the Liu clan subdued the surrounding Wuhou-level gate valves, he did not move, and did not cooperate with the Qiu clan of Da'an County, destroying the Wei clan in one fell swoop.
Obviously, it is not beneficial for the Liu family to destroy the Wei clan and bring the Qiu clan in.
The Liu family needs time to recuperate and accumulate strength, and now this delicate balance is what the Liu family needs.
This time and that time.
A few years ago, Wei wanted to negotiate peace, but Liu refused, because the timing was not good at that time.
Wei's strength has not been damaged, and once the situation is stabilized, he will fight back against Liu.
But now, it's a trade-off.
Wei was damaged, and it was difficult to mobilize forces to fight back. And the cultivation of the ancestor of the Liu family has improved, and his confidence is obviously much fuller, and he is not afraid of counterattacking.
"I didn't expect that."
Lu Yan frowned, the change in the battle situation was somewhat unexpected by him.
In this way, the Liu clan will be completely stable, like an iron plate, and can concentrate on developing the blood veins?
Will his second-level blood veins be discovered?
Although the entrances and exits of the blood veins have been covered up by him in various ways and are extremely hidden, there is also a chance of being discovered.
There is also the stone gate on the stone wall of the mountain, which is not completely unexposed.
"Later, it is still necessary to try to enter the bleeding leyline as little as possible, so as not to be exposed."
Lu Yan said secretly.
While Lu Yan was concerned about the battle situation in Li'an County, an invitation was sent to Lu Yan.
It was an invitation sent by the Martial Arts Alliance, inviting Lu Yan to discuss major matters in the Spring and Autumn Martial Arts Pavilion tomorrow.
Lu Yan did not refuse, because now the Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilions are also a member of the Martial Arts Alliance, and they joined the Martial Arts Alliance more than a year ago.
Since the original competition, Feng Yueming, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, has personally visited the door three times and twice and invited the Three Absolute Martial Arts Halls.
After thinking about it again, Lu Yan decided to join.
If you want to get along, sometimes you have to talk about human feelings.
If you follow the customs of the locals and become independent, you will be isolated, even if Lu Yan suppresses it by force, it is difficult to keep the villain secretly stumbling.
The next day, early in the morning, Lu Yan came to the Spring and Autumn Martial Arts Hall.
When he came, the other thirteen martial arts hall owners had already arrived.
Hugging hands casually, Lu Yan sat down in an empty chair.
"Now, now that the people have arrived, let's talk about what you have summoned to discuss today."
"Nowadays, the competition between the two major factions of the Li clan is becoming more and more fierce, and each has its own means to win over large and small forces."
"Whether it's a martial arts hall, a chamber of commerce, or a dart bureau, it's hard to be alone."
"If you want to remain neutral and not help each other, it is wishful thinking, and to remain neutral is actually to offend both sides."
"So, today is to discuss, which side to take refuge into, whether to choose Li Wenxuan or Li Wenxin?"
Fengyue Ming Road.
"Wind Alliance Master, what choice do you make?"
Duan Shenfei, the owner of the Chisha Martial Arts Pavilion, asked.
"Okay, then the old man will be the first to make a statement, the old man and Li Wenxuan have known each other since their early years, so the old man must have chosen Li Wenxuan."
Fengyue Ming Road.
"The fourteen martial arts hall alliances are in the same spirit, since the alliance leader chooses Li Wenxuan, then naturally choose Li Wenxuan in the next place."
Duan Shenfei immediately expressed his position.
"Yes, the Martial Arts Alliance advances and retreats together, if you choose to diverge, won't it fall apart? I also choose Li Wenxuan below. ”
"Me too."
In addition to the Spring and Autumn Martial Arts Hall, the remaining twelve martial arts hall owners all chose Li Wenxuan.
Finally, thirteen pairs of eyes looked at Lu Yan in unison.
Lu Yan sneered in his heart.
Still acting with me here?
He had long known that the major martial arts halls were inextricably linked with the Li family, and most of these connections were with Li Wenxuan's faction.
Therefore, if the Martial Arts Alliance wants to choose a faction to support, it must be Li Wenxuan.
Moreover, looking at the thirteen martial arts halls, there was no hesitation in choosing Li Wenxuan, obviously because he had passed the qi earlier.
Today, this is to put pressure on Lu Yan and let him make a choice?
"Pavilion Master Lu, how do you choose?"
Feng Yueming asked.
"I, Lu Shanchuan, just want to open a martial arts gym in peace and pass on what I have learned, I have nothing else to think about, and I don't want to get involved in the competition within the Li family, so I don't choose any of them."
Lu Yan shook his head and said.
Feng Yueming shook his head and smiled bitterly, while the other pavilion owners had different expressions, not knowing what to think.
"Shanchuan, the old man knows your temperament, and you are used to being alone, but you still have to advise you, the current situation in Baicao City is black and white, and it is difficult to be alone."
Fengyue Ming Road.
"The kindness of the alliance leader, the mountains and rivers have it."
Lu Yan clenched his fists and was resolute.
First, he really didn't want to get involved in the competition between the two factions, so he wanted to accumulate strength in peace.
Second, even if he wants to choose a faction to take refuge, he can't choose Li Wenxuan.
Before that, it was okay, but since he killed Li Cangxin, it will never be possible.
He and Li Wenxuan must not reconcile, once Li Wenxuan finds out any clues, the two sides will have a battle.
Moreover, if you take refuge in Li Wenxuan, you will be exposed to greater risks for a long time.
If you have to choose a faction to take refuge in, it can only be Li Wenxin.
"Lu Shanchuan, the fourteen martial arts alliances, the same qi and branches, the same advance and retreat, we all choose Li Wenxuan, but you don't choose, what do others think? Li asked Lord Xuan what he thought of us, did he think that our Martial Arts Alliance had two hearts. ”
Duan Shenfei said coldly.
"Yes, in this way, how dare I call you together in the future?"
"In my opinion, the Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilion might as well simply withdraw from the alliance."
Pavilion masters, you say a word to me.
But Liu Zong, the Black Sword Martial Arts Pavilion, didn't say a word.
After he was inexplicably visited by a martial artist last time, he made up his mind to offend less people.
There are also a few hall owners who did not speak, but they had their own calculations in their hearts.
They planned to see if either side of the Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilion could be left alone, and if they could, they might be able to follow suit.
"In this case, the Tao is not the same, and Lu Mou withdrew from the alliance."
Lu Yan got up, took out the token of the Martial Arts Alliance, put it on the table, and strode away.
"Hmph, this Lu Shanchuan, thinking that he has a little strength, thinks too much of himself, and sooner or later he will suffer a big loss."
"Yes, he wants to be alone, and in the end, the two major factions will be offended, so let's see how his Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilions are dispersed."
"In Baicao City, five times the limit has been broken, and it is nothing."
Several people opened their mouths unhappily.
Finally, someone looked at Feng Yueming and asked, "Alliance leader, Lu Shanchuan withdrew from the alliance, what should I do now?" ”
"Early tomorrow morning, I will meet Li Canglin's son and tell me the truth."
Fengyue Ming Road.
Li Canglin's mansion, in the east of Baicao City, covers an area of 100 acres, with heavy houses, pavilions and water pavilions, and is extremely prosperous.
In the living room, after sending off the thirteen martial arts hall owners, only Li Canglin and a few henchmen remained.
"Those three peerless martial arts halls, want to be alone?"
Li Canglin leaned lazily back in his chair, a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Childe, do you want your subordinates to send someone to knock and knock?"
Nearby, an old man in a robe with a goatee suggested.
This old man is a famous strategist next to Li Canglin, named Jia Xun.
"Well, send someone to check the details of the mountains and rivers of Nalu."
"By the way, send someone to beat it, if it's not interesting, let the Three Absolute Martial Arts Hall disperse."
Li Canglin said casually, got up and left.
"I remember that last time, Gongzi didn't let him knock on the Three Peerless Martial Arts Pavilion, saying that he would force it to Li Wenxin's side, why did he agree to beat it this time?"
After Li Canglin left, another relative followed Zhao Lu to ask Jia Xun.
"At this time and then, now the Martial Arts Gym Alliance has taken refuge in us, but only the Three Absolute Martial Arts Gyms have withdrawn, if we don't knock and knock, what will the other martial arts halls think? Do you also feel that you can be alone? ”
"Therefore, even if we force the Three Absolute Martial Pavilions to Li Cangqing's side, compared to the Martial Arts Alliance, the Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilions are nothing, but our attitude must be taken out in order to make the Martial Arts Alliance follow us with peace of mind."
Jia Xun explained with a smile.
"I see, Zhao Lu is taught."
Zhao Lu clenched his fists.
Three days later, five big men dressed in green robes and with long knives hanging from their waists came to the front of the Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilion.
When the two guards saw it, they immediately greeted them, saluted carefully, and said, "The villain has seen the five adults of Baicaowei, and the five adults have come to our Three Absolute Martial Arts Pavilion, but is there something wrong?" ”
Baicaowei is the force under the command of the Li clan to maintain law and order, similar to the Liu clan's red guard, replacing the previous catcher.
However, the overall strength of Baicaowei far surpasses that of the Red Guard, the captain and the captain, all of them have broken the limit five times.
In addition, it is said that there is also a great commander and two deputy commanders, both of whom are figures from the Wuhou Realm.
"Fuck off."
A Baicao guard drank coldly, grabbed and threw his hands away, threw the two guards a few meters away, fell to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.
The five Baicao guards strode into the martial arts hall.
All the apprentices in the martial arts hall looked at the five hundred grass guards in surprise and stopped.
"Five adults, if you are far away, forgive your sins."
Li Quan saw that the posture was wrong, and immediately greeted him with a smile, and took out a hundred taels of silver ticket from his sleeve silkily, and handed it to a Baicao guard led by him.
Bai Caowei, who was the leader, took it, his face was slightly pale, and said: "You three absolute martial arts halls open martial arts halls here, recruit apprentices to teach martial arts, can you have official approval?" ”
"Official approval?"
Li Quan's face changed, he had never heard Lu Yan talk about it.
The previous official document referred to the Great Chu court.
The current official document naturally refers to the Li family.
"Without the approval of the official document, you dare to open a martial arts hall, teach martial arts privately, and cultivate your own armed forces, what do you want to do? Want to rebel? ”
The Baicao Guard, who was the leader, scolded, and the sound was like a lion's roar, shaking the entire Three Absolute Martial Arts Hall.
"This"
With such a big hat buttoned down, Rao is Li Quan was resourceful, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while, and he was stunned.
In the practice room, Lu Yan frowned.
"Sure enough, it came."
He stopped practicing and walked out of the room.
"Curator."
Li Quan hurriedly trotted over.
"I hear it all."
Lu Yan nodded and came to the five hundred grass guards.
"In the mountains and rivers of Shimoji, I have seen five adults."
Lu Yan clenched his fists.
"Lu Shanchuan, you should have heard what you said just now, is there an official approval, take it out and test it."
Headed by Baicaowei.
"When the martial arts hall was opened, I didn't hear that it was required to be approved by the government."
Lu Yan shook his head.
And as far as he knows, the opening of other martial arts halls has never required official approval.
This is most likely sent by Li Wenxuan's lineage.
Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence.
As soon as he refused to join, Baicaowei came to the door?
"No official approval?"
Bai Caowei, who was the leader, sneered and said, "That's it. The martial arts hall will be closed on a certain day, the apprentices will be dismissed, and it is not allowed to teach martial arts in private, and we will come back in a few days, if it is not closed, we will be punished for the crime of treason. ”
"Let's go!"
After speaking, the five Baicao guards strode away.
On the martial arts field, all the apprentices looked at each other and were at a loss.
"Owner, what should I do now?"
Li Quan asked.
Lu Yan frowned.
To be honest, he doesn't have a good way either.
The other party obviously wanted to force him to make a statement.
Either take refuge in the past, or close the door.
"If you want to live a peaceful and stable life, why is it so difficult to accumulate strength in peace."
Lu Yan sighed secretly.
"It's business as usual, let's see the situation first, I have my own way of dealing with it."
Lu Yan commanded.
If it really doesn't work, then you can only go to Li Cangqing for help.
But once he took the initiative to ask Li Cangqing for help, it was equivalent to getting on Li Cangqing's boat.
The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop.
Dangdang.
In the courtyard of Wang Dao's residence, two figures clashed quickly, and the two sword lights were extremely fast, flickering like a match.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of moves collided.
After dozens of moves, one sword light skyrocketed, while another sword light began to shrink sharply and was pressed within a few feet.
With a bang, a figure staggered back.
