Chapter 290: The Li Family's Final Decision
Hearing this, the county lord of Fengwu nodded, but a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes, obviously knowing that the middle-aged beauty's words were self-comforting.
At the same time, a certain black mountain towering into the sky.
In the conference hall, all the stewards and elders who held great power gathered here, sitting in two rows, with the head of the family, Li Yuanfeng, sitting in the first place, and Li Tianqiu standing beside Li Yuanfeng.
"I called all my brothers, sisters and uncles today, I have something to announce, I intend to officially attach myself to the Taiqing Palace, in order to show my sincerity, I want to send a medium-sized spirit stone mine to the Taiqing Palace, and hand over a certain amount of worship every year, in addition, send a few more well-qualified clansmen to worship the Taiqing Palace," Li Tianqiu glanced at the clan elders on the left and right, and said slowly.
"What? Officially attached to the Taiqing Palace, and sent a medium-sized spirit stone mine to the Taiqing Palace?"
"It's okay to send people to worship in the Taiqing Palace, and there is no need to send that spirit stone mine! How much effort did the ancestors of our Li family spend and how much blood they shed to save this bit of family money, how can they be easily sent out. ”
"Yes, big brother, even if you are the head of the family, you can't come nonsense, three medium-sized spirit stone mines are the main source of income for our Li family, and now there is one less, where will this lack of income come from. ”
Hearing this, some people looked as usual, obviously knowing the news for a long time, but most of them were shocked, obviously not knowing, and some of the elders in charge even spoke up against the matter.
"Everyone be quiet, since the eldest brother said so, there must be his reasons, let's listen to the eldest brother's reasons, and it's not too late to make a decision," said a yellow-robed man with a bookish face.
"What the seventh brother said is right, let's all listen to what the eldest brother has to say, presumably the eldest brother should be able to give us a reasonable explanation," a middle-aged man with a thin face said with a smile on the corners of his mouth slightly curled.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone focused their eyes on Li Yuanfeng, expecting him to give a perfect explanation.
"Taiqing Palace is a great sect of cultivating immortals that has been handed down since ancient times, our Li family has a lot of benefits from relying on Taiqing Palace, not to mention anything else, it will definitely expand the power of our Li family, let's just say that our opponent Zhu family, the Zhu family and our Li family are listed as the three major immortal cultivation families in Guanning County, in the past, our Li family could still suppress the Zhu family, but now? Since the daughter of the Zhu family married the descendant of an elder of the Taiqing Palace and hugged the thigh of the Taiqing Palace, the power of the Zhu family has risen sharply, and the business has spread all over several states and counties, on the other hand, our Li family, the power has been shrinking in Yanzhou, and if it goes on like this, sooner or later, our Li family will have a mountain empty, and it will be beneficial and harmless, and a medium-sized spirit stone mine is the sincerity of our Li family," Li Yuanfeng said slowly.
"Hmph, big brother, if you want to expand your power, you don't necessarily have to be attached to the Taiqing Palace, you have been showing favor to the Taiqing Palace all these years, and we can all see the result, even if you give a medium-sized spirit stone mine to the Taiqing Palace, the Taiqing Palace may not pay much attention to our Li family," the middle-aged man with a thin face snorted lightly and retorted.
"Fifth brother is right, if the Taiqing Palace turns our Li family into a subsidiary force, but refuses to vigorously support our Li family, when the time comes, won't that medium-sized spirit stone mine be lost, if you want me to see, if we want to expand the power of our own clan, we can rely on other forces, such as the royal family," a fat round-faced man proposed.
"Attaching to the royal family, the royal family can help our Li family, the royal family has been suppressed by both the righteous and the demon over the years, and they are too busy to take care of themselves, so it would be good if the royal family did not fall into the ground, let alone help our Li family develop," Li Yuanfeng sneered.
"Hmph, the royal family can't do it, you can rely on the Taiqing Palace, you don't necessarily have to rely on the Taiqing Palace, the Taiqing Palace has already supported a Zhu family, and it may not care about our Li family, it's really not good, we can rely on the ten major demon sects headed by the Ten Thousand Demon Palace," the round-faced man snorted lightly and retorted.
"Attached to the Demon Dao Sect?Hmph, there is not a single Demon Dao Sect in the entire Yanzhou, there are several Demon Dao Sects in the neighboring states, but they are all medium sects, their strength is similar to our Li family, and relying on the middle sect will not help our Li family, but will be suppressed by the Righteous Dao Sect, and we will not have time to support the ten major Demon Dao sects, our Li family has no time to support if something happens, Taiqing Palace has a rudder in Yanzhou, and the Zhu family is a subsidiary force, and attaching to Taiqing Palace is the best choice for this clan," Li Yuanfeng said in a deep voice.
"Big brother, these reasons you said are not convincing at all," the middle-aged man with a thin face sneered and said disapprerovingly.
"Someone in Taiqing Palace has successfully married a baby, is this news convincing enough?" Li Yuanfeng said with a calm face.
"What? Taiqing Palace has another Yuanying monk?"
"Really, big brother, can you confirm the news?"
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed, and the middle-aged man's face suddenly sank.
"Of course it's true, the Taiqing Palace sent an elder from the Yudan period to send an invitation to our Li family, inviting our Li family to go to the Taiqing Palace to participate in the wedding celebration in a month, if I remember correctly, the last time the Taiqing Palace held a wedding celebration was less than a hundred years ago, that is to say, within two hundred years, there will be two more Yuanying monks in the Taiqing Palace, what does this mean, you must also know it!" Li Yuanfeng said meaningfully.
Hearing this, everyone was silent.
"Even if there is another Yuanying monk in the Taiqing Palace, it doesn't necessarily mean that our Li family must take refuge in the Taiqing Palace!" said the middle-aged man with a frown.
"It seems that I don't speak, you are determined to move closer to the royal family," a deep man's voice suddenly sounded.
As soon as the words fell, the red light suddenly burst out in the conference hall, and after the red light faded, a white-faced and bearded red-robed man suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The red-robed man was in his thirties, with good facial features, and there was no mana fluctuation on his body.
"Meet the old ancestor," Seeing the red-robed man, the faces of everyone present changed, and they all stood up and saluted, looking very respectful, judging from the reactions of these monks in the Yudan period, this red-robed man was obviously a Yuanying monk.
"Old Five, if I say that it is my decision to attach to the Taiqing Palace, do you have anything else to say?" The red-robed man glanced at the middle-aged man and said with a calm face.
"My nephew doesn't dare, since it's the third uncle's decision, my nephew will definitely follow it," the middle-aged man's face changed, and he hurriedly explained, looking a little frightened.
"Hmph, don't think that I don't know about the agreements between you and the royal family, for the sake of you still knowing that you call me a third uncle, this matter is settled, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, you will be punished for facing the wall for thirty years, during this period, you are not allowed to meddle in everything in the clan, do you have any objections?" said the red-robed man lightly.
"No," the middle-aged man shook his head, a look of trepidation.
The red-robed man nodded, and said to Li Yuanfeng: "Boss, I don't need to say more about what to do next!"
"The child understands," Li Yuanfeng nodded.
"Heavenly enemy, come to my mansion tomorrow," After speaking, the red-robed man turned into a little red light and disappeared.
As soon as the red-robed man left, the middle-aged man immediately sat down on the chair, and a layer of fine sweat oozed from his face.
Seeing this, Li Yuanfeng smiled slightly, and said: "You also heard the words of the ancestor just now, I have already discussed this matter with the Taoist friends of Taiqing Palace, and I plan to officially announce this matter on my birthday, let's discuss the details······"
