Li Shuihong clenched his fists, politely exited the courtyard, and stood outside the door waiting.

Xia Ruoxue took the letter handed by Li Shuidao and began to read it.

Li Shuidao took out the array plate from the storage bag and opened the door of the alchemy room behind him.

The door of the alchemy room was wide open, and after the two entered the alchemy room, Li Shuidao used the array disk to close the door again.

At this point, the small room had been turned into a secret room, ensuring that their conversation would not be overheard by the outside world.

He waited quietly for Xia Ruoxue to finish reading the letterhead.

"Did you do it?" Li Shuidao asked bluntly.

Xia Ruoxue was silent for a moment, and then said, "I did see him at that time, but I didn't do it. If I were to do it, I would just kill him and not choose such a troublesome way! “

Li Shuidao thought for a moment and thought that Xia Ruoxue's statement was reasonable. So he continued: "Then who do you see who did it?" “

Xia Ruoxue thought for a moment and said: "At that time, I saw him on the cliff of Tianyakou, he was followed by two people, both riding fast horses, and after a glance, I left. ”

Li Shuidao touched his brows and said, "The terrain of Tianyakou is indeed a good place to ambush people...... Forget it, since you didn't do it, let's go and save people. ”

Hearing this, Xia Ruoxue was extremely reluctant: "Why should we save him?" ”

Li Shuidao was silent for a moment and then said: "This is a family matter, even if you don't like it, you have to have a correct attitude." ”

Hearing this, Xia Ruoxue nodded thoughtfully.

The two of them left the alchemy room together and pushed open the door of the small courtyard.

"Without further ado, let's go and meet the castle lord together." Li Shuidao said solemnly.

Li Shuihong nodded.

"Send you to the concubine." Xia Ruoxue took the initiative to say.

The three of them came to the highest part of the stone tower, Xia Ruoxue understood that as a woman and hiding her cultivation, it was not appropriate to participate in such a big event.

Therefore, she volunteered to wait on the first floor and stayed to guard the place.

Li Shuidao and Li Shuihong went upstairs, and they walked into the room of the castle lord Li Tianfeng.

The door to the room was open, and the two stood in the doorway, not entering in time.

"Come in."

With permission, the two entered the room, which was simply furnished but revealed an air of solemnity and authority.

Li Tianfeng sat on the chair and looked at Li Shuihong with deep eyes, obviously he also felt a little strange about this person's identity.

Li Shuidao and Li Shuihong walked up to Li Tianfeng and saluted respectfully.

Li Shuihong immediately spoke: "Lord Castle, I am the patriarch's envoy Li Shuihong, and I specially brought the patriarch's letter. ”

He handed the letter to Li Tianfeng.

Li Tianfeng took the letter, and the fire paint on the line was indeed his father.

And when Li Shuihong was in the family before, he often saw that this person was indeed a member of the Li family.

He opened the letter and read it carefully.

The letter is indeed in the father's handwriting, and the content is also very simple, the father asked to hand over all the mined "fire poison crystals" to Li Shuihong, and he will bring them back to the family.

Li Tianfeng pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "The Fire Poison Crystal has only been mined at present, and it was mined by a family member who risked his life. I can't easily hand over such a valuable item to you to take away. ”

When Li Shuidao heard this, he immediately clenched his fists and said, "Lord Castle, I am also willing to follow Li Shuihong back to the family for a trip, and I can also protect the safety of the fire poison crystal along the way." ”

Li Tianfeng refused on the spot: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's that your cultivation is too low, and once you leave here, you will likely be robbed by other forces." I might as well tell you that five days ago, my son Li Haoyang had something to do and returned to the family, and I didn't let him take the fire poison crystal with him. Such resources must be prudent and wait for the right moment to make decisions. ”

Li Shuidao and Li Shuihong glanced at each other, and they both saw embarrassment in each other's eyes.

The patriarch secretly believed that he could not tell Li Tianfeng the truth, but now that Li Tianfeng did not know the truth and did not give the fire poison crystal, how should they explain if they returned to Shenmu City?

"Brother Shuidao, let's go out and discuss it and find a solution." His expression was very solemn.

Li Shuidao nodded and agreed.

They left Li Tianfeng's room and came to a secluded corridor on the side, and began to discuss.

"Let's tell the castle lord the truth, he has the right to know." Li Shuihong said after thinking for a long time.

"But if the castle lord knows, he will definitely go back, maybe he just fell for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." Li Shuidao said with a flash in his eyes.

Li Shuihong looked at Li Shuidao, smiled slightly and said, "Let Miss Xia stay in Tianchi Fort, just to catch the enemy off guard." ”

"You even know that?" Li Shuidao showed a look of surprise.

Xia Ruoxue has a matter of cultivation, and there are not many people in the Li family who know about it.

"Huh...... The patriarch trusted. Li Shuihong was sloppy.

Li Shuidao's eyes were gloomy, and he had a new understanding of Li Shuihong's status in the family.

This person can not only know the secrets that Li Tianfeng can't know, but also can "choose the opportunity to change policies", this status is not higher than Li Haimo, at least he can be on an equal footing with him.

Coupled with the fact that this person himself had never seen before, it was not difficult to guess his identity......

Li Shuidao thought for a moment, and then said: "Do you think there is an inner ghost, as soon as the castle master leaves Tianchi Fort, then the inner ghost will appear to seize the spirit mine warehouse?" ”

"It's possible." Li Shuihong nodded and said.

"Then why don't I stay, I'm afraid Xia Ruoxue won't be able to cope with it alone." Li Shuidao said with a faint look in his eyes.

"Although this is a spiritual mine given to the family by the Five Poison Sect, no one dares to rob it directly, but the arrogant can completely disguise their identity and loot the warehouse, at least leave a second-order combat power to guard, since Li Tianfeng is gone, then you and Xia Ruoxue must stay."

Patriarch Li Haimo actually made the same decision, but considering that Xia Ruoxue was cultivating the Blood Dao Demon Skill, she should have a greater grasp of dealing with the unknown Demon Cultivation.

Moreover, Li Tianfeng is Li Haoyang's father, and because his son was held hostage, he will definitely not be able to keep calm, which will adversely affect the rescue operation.

Therefore, Li Haimo asked Li Shuidao to make a move in the letter, but he actually asked Xia Ruoxue to make a move.

However, now if Li Tianfeng learns that his son has been kidnapped, he will definitely not be able to sit in Tianchi Fort.

Since Li Tianfeng was going to return to the family, there was no need for Li Shuidao and Xia Ruoxue to go together.

It would be more appropriate for the two of them to stay in Tianchi Fort......

"Good! I'll go to the appointment over there for Demon Cultivation, and you will have full authority to deal with any changes in Tianchi Fort at that time, but Li Haoyang's life and the foundation of the family, which is more important, you have to distinguish clearly! ”

Li Shuidao nodded, signaling that he understood.

"Give me a letter, and I'll tell Li Tianfeng the truth."

Li Shuidao took out the handwritten letter written by the patriarch to himself from his arms and handed it to Li Shuihong.

Li Shuihong came to Li Tianfeng's room again.

"Let's go! No matter what you say, I won't give you the Poison Fire Crystal to take away. ”

Before Li Shuihong could speak, Li Tianfeng had already issued an eviction order, and there was a lot of impatience in his words.

Li Shuihong took out a letter from his bosom and said, "The patriarch asked me to bring two letters, one for you and the other for Elder Li Shuidao. ”

Let's talk about it......

Li Shuihong put the disassembled letter on Li Tianfeng's desk with both hands.

Li Tianfeng looked at the letter that had been opened on the desk, his eyes flashed, he couldn't guess Li Shuihong's purpose, so he asked in a deep voice: "Since the letter has been opened, you can directly say the content." ”

Li Shuihong was silent for a moment and said in as concise words as possible: "Ling Gongzi returned to the family Shenmu City five days ago, and was robbed by the demon cultivator on the way, and the demon cultivator left a ransom letter asking us to exchange the 'fire poison crystal' for Ling Gongzi. “

"What do you say? How does it have to do with Haoyang? Li Tianfeng never expected that the secret hidden by this guy was actually related to his son, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was robbed, this is the only bloodline of the Li family, if a family is not even a descendant, can it still be called a family?

Li Tianfeng reached out and touched the open letter on the table and read it quickly......

Indeed, the handwriting on this letter is the handwriting of his father.

There's also a lot of content in it......

After reading it in one go, he asked in a trembling voice with a trembling letterhead, "This ...... What does that mean?! ”

Li Shuihong looked at Li Tianfeng's reaction, and greatly admired Li Haimo's foresight.

He cautiously explained, "As you can see, the letter mentions that your son was kidnapped by an unknown demon cultivator, and now they are asking us to use the 'Fire Poison Crystal' as a ransom. ”

Li Tianfeng's eyes were full of pain and anger.

What made him miserable was not only the news of his son's accident, but the father's extreme distrust of him, the important news about his son, and the father actually wanted to hide it from himself.

That's what really makes him unacceptable!

"How can this be true? How unreasonable! Li Tianfeng was furious, he couldn't accept the facts in front of him, angrily grabbed the items on the table and smashed them against the wall.

"Where did that come from? How did he rob my son? ”

"We just received a ransom letter from Demon Xiu, and there is no specific information." Li Shuihong replied calmly.

"Then why are you telling me now! Shouldn't this kind of thing be told to the child's father first? Li Tianfeng was in a mess at this time, and he actually vented his anger on Li Shuihong.

"Lord Castle, please calm down, it is the decision of the patriarch not to let you know about this." Li Shuihong explained calmly.

"So...... He trusts you more, doesn't he!? Li Tianfeng roared sharply, his anger uncontrollable.

Li Shuihong frowned slightly, he didn't expect Li Tianfeng to direct his anger at himself, Li Tianfeng was in extreme mood swings at this moment, completely losing his mind.

He patiently explained, "Lord Castle, the patriarch does not distrust you. He's just worried that you'll be messed up when you learn about it, and it will affect our operations. That's why I decided not to tell you for the time being. ”

"You fart! He just didn't believe me! Li Tianfeng's anger could not be suppressed, and he suddenly punched Li Shuihong.

Li Shuihong's eyes shrank, he didn't expect Li Tianfeng to do anything to him.

He stepped back like lightning and drew a golden sword from his waist.

"Snake shadows!" Li Tianfeng seems to be incarnated as a giant python, with a flexible body like a poisonous snake and a strong elephant.

There is poison between his fists and feet, and Mo Shu, a monk of the Five Poison Sect, is hit by a punch, even if he fights him, he will be invisibly invaded by the poison.

Li Shuihong held the high-grade magic weapon "Storm Sword" in his hand, and performed the blue sea swordsmanship, and the turbid waves were surging.

The sword light flickered, and the water light flowed, like a vast blue wave.

His sword moves are like the waves of the sea, carrying infinite power and power.

The more Li Tianfeng's strength squeezed, the sharper the sword light of the Storm Sword became. The sword light was brilliant and turbulent like a wave, colliding with the power of the snake shadow, making a piercing crashing sound.

The moves of the two were intertwined, the sword light and the snake shadow were intertwined, and the room was filled with thick energy fluctuations. Li Shuihong struggled to resist Li Tianfeng's attack.

The sword and the snake shadow were entangled with each other, Li Tianfeng was a second-order monk in the end, and his strength gradually suppressed Li Shuihong.

The two fought, lasting for three breaths, and finally Li Tianfeng, with his more powerful cultivation, hit Li Shuihong with one punch, breaking his dense sword move.

Poof.

Li Shuihong was punched against the wall, and blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

Li Tianfeng also had sword marks on his body, but he was not injured.

He looked at the torn clothes on his body and said with a shocked face: "Top-grade flying sword? Blue Sea Swordsmanship? You're from the South China Sea? ”

At the right time.

As soon as the figure arrived, he hurried and stood at the door.

It's Li Shuidao!

Li Tianfeng knew that now was not the time to ask, so he looked up to the sky angrily and roared: "Father, how many things are you hiding from me? “

Immediately, his body flickered, turned into a ray of light, and left Tianchi Fort.
