Chapter 496: Siege
Li Hou is just an incasual child, Ni Xiaoyan can sense that what he says is almost sincere, but for the big clan, his words are very rebellious, but no one will agree with this concept.
After all, the patriarch Li Qing standing behind Li Hou was still too naΓ―ve, the hatred between the low-level cultivators and the big clans could not be resolved, unless it reached the point where a certain party completely disappeared, even if there were many low-level cultivators who relieved the conflict with these big clans, but they just wanted to survive, once the power of the two sides was balanced, the contradiction would definitely break out.
A thousand years can not be resolved in just a few years, and among the big clans, because of the existence of various interests, it is also impossible to alleviate this hatred, through Li Hou's mouth, Ni Xiaoxiang learned that in Lingyun City and Xuanming Gate, Li Qing has not made efforts, on the one hand, to provide some cultivation resources for cultivators born at the bottom with cultivation talents, and on the other hand, to let some people enter the high-level, but in the end, because of the suspicion between the big clans, all the efforts have failed, and Li Qing has also entered the forbidden land in disappointment, and has retreated to avoid the cruel realityγ
Even Ding Kui, the Fu King hundreds of years ago, also suffered such an ending, otherwise Yiqin Shi would be the head of the Tianfu Society.
After a while, Li Hou took them to the relatively deserted street of the Artifact Gate, next to which there were many closed and tight courtyards, which were quite desolate, Li Hou told him that this was a place where some lonely big clan disciples lived, except for the reluctant and remnant big clan disciples who lived here, nothing had been here, but fortunately, the bottom cultivators could not enter here, so this place seemed very desolate.
In the circle of the big clan, the families who enter here are all beaten into the cold palace, and it won't be long before most of them will be reduced to a life like low-level cultivators, and this situation is tantamount to life and death for some people who still hold the face of the big clan.
Walking into the Li family, the dilapidated buildings and the courtyard covered with layers of ash, it can be seen that it has not been cleaned for a long time, there are not many people inside, almost all of them are in some grades, and young people like Li Hou are extinct, Li Hou explained on the side: "Since Patriarch Li was snubbed by the major clans, many young people in the clan have taken refuge in other Li families, so those who can stay are those who have feelings for Patriarch Li and disdain to be in the same stream." β
Walking to the inner courtyard, Ni Xiaoyan saw a middle-aged man with long hair and black and white quietly bathing in the sun, looking at a featureless ancient tree opposite with a cold and vicissitudes of life, and saw Li Hou bringing people in, so he turned his head and said lightly: "You're back, who are these two guests?"
"Patriarch Li, these two are from the Yun family of Orange Township, and they came here to accept your opinion. Li Hou said softly, like a child who made a mistake.
It is Li Qing who is called the patriarch of Li, and it is the first time that he can be brought here by Li Hou, he knows the so-called opinions, and there are not many opinions in the big clan who can listen to them, so he can't help but be curious and look at them seriously.
Different from Li Hou's informality, Li Qing's observation is more, Yiqin poetry is like an unattainable big man in his eyes, and his demeanor makes people feel a sense of surrender, even compared to the cause of the artifact gate and the pot immortal of Dan Yuanzong, this feeling is even worse, and the slave next to him seems to be by no means a simple person, although on the surface it is not only a foundation building period of cultivation, but just in the face of Yiqin poetry or a character like him, it does not show any fear and cowardice.
The Yun family in Orange Township, he has also heard of it, all of them are arrogant and hierarchical families, no matter how arrogant a slave is, it is impossible to look light and breezy like this, and with a faint high-level temperament, especially Yiqin Shi, as if he has no disgust with the demeanor of this slave beside him, but as a matter of course.
"Heh, these are children's words, don't take them seriously. Li Qing said, but his eyes were still on both sides, and it seemed that the longer he observed, the more he could see something.
What do you mean not to take it seriously, looking at your appearance, I obviously want to know why we listened to it, and even wished we could listen to your opinion more, Yiqin Shi muttered in her heart, and sat on the chair pushed by Li Hou, while Ni Xiaoyan moved up directly, approached Li Qing, and said with a smile: "We want to understand what you said before, the reconciliation between the big clan and the low-level birth cultivators. β
"This is not a topic that cannot be said, the evil race is in charge, the human race is like the situation when the demon two races invaded the world of cultivators, it is necessary to unite all the human race cultivators, it is possible to avoid this difficulty, the so-called big clan, it is just the recognition and status of the people who have great military achievements back then, thousands of years, it has become a burden and a package, now that the evil race has appeared, the human race is bound to experience a big change, it doesn't matter the big race, it is better to take advantage of this, firmly control their own destiny, and follow the general trend. β
"But you did something like this before the Evil didn't invade. Ni Xiaoyan grasped the key point and said.
Seeing that these two people didn't seem to come to visit out of curiosity, but the kind of person who really recognized his ideas, so he came here to find him to inquire about his ideas, Li Qing's words suddenly increased: "This is still going to talk about a person." β
"Who?"
"Fu Wang Ding Kui. Li Qing nodded and confirmed, when he said this, he saw that the two guests were stunned, and immediately showed more curiosity, and the female cultivator was even more curious, although she didn't say anything, but her eyes flashed with essence, if Li Qing hadn't noticed her all the time, she wouldn't have noticed.
"It all starts with the ancestors hundreds of years ago, my grandfather, who was also the patriarch of the year, by chance, met the Fu King Ding Kui of the year, the whole family is proud of it, during that period, I made friends with my grandfather, talked for a long time, and slowly learned that in the near future, the whole world will encounter a big catastrophe, this is still quite a secret thing, if you really want to solve such a catastrophe, you should accept those low-level cultivators, to be able to get through, of course, grandpa also heard that Fu Wang Ding Kui had made a lot of efforts to make the Yiqin poem who was born at the bottom become the next Fu Kingγ β
"At that time, the grandfather realized that Fu Wang Ding Kui was not verbal, nor was it an illusory thing, oh, by the way, Fu Wang Ding Kui had also talked to the sect master of the Hidden Hidden Sect back then, and the relationship between the two families was okay at that time, but the Hidden Hidden Sect did not believe the words of the Fu King Ding Kui, thinking that it was for his most beloved apprentice, so he used the words of future calamity to intimidate the other party and accept his own opinions. β
Ni Xiaoyan was even more confused in his heart, the people in the Heavenly Fu Society didn't know what evil people were, and the information in it could almost be said to be pitiful, but he just didn't know, according to the reason, shouldn't Ding Kui, the king of the Fu Society, tell those people of the Heavenly Fu Society the most?
As a former high-level of the Tianfu Society, Yiqin Shi said in his heart: "It's not those old diehards of the Tianfu Society at the beginning, how do they know what the evil crisis is, they thought it was a fantasy, and they didn't mention it, but the good apprentices below, each of them should not do the same thing, plus Master Ding didn't want to cause too much panic, but he just mentioned it to those high-level people secretly, but there was no result, ha...... Unexpectedly, hundreds of years later, everyone knows those things, and they just do it themselves. β
On the other hand, Li Qing sighed and said: " At that time, Fu Wang Ding Kui mentioned that the source of all the disasters came from the sealing platform, and it was the junction of the Tianhu Domain and the Huafeng Domain, and my Li family suggested that the Xuanming Gate seal the entire border place, and send cultivators to go there to seal it, but it is a pity that the Hidden Sect thought that the Xuanming Sect had any intention of encroachment, and the two sides were reborn in contradiction there, which led to the endless fight between the two major sects, but they didn't want to, and the disciples on both sides lost most of them, which is the contradiction and hatred that the Hidden Sect and the Xuanming Sect have not been able to resolve for a long time. β
"What happened later?" asked Ni Xiaoyan.
"Not long after, Fu Wang Ding Kui disappeared, and this matter became history, but my Li family has always remembered what Fu Wang Ding Kui said back then, and my Li family relied on the support of Fu Wang Ding Kui back then, and came to me to serve as the head of Xuanming Gate. β
After a brief conversation with Li Qing, although Ni Xiaoyan was sure that Li Qing was kind to the cultivator class born at the bottom, he still had to consider the cooperation and support of the Tianxin Society. Fortunately, Li Hou provided them with a place to rest, so they avoided going to the residence of the Yun family in Orange Township.
There is not much time left to attack the artifact gate, Ni Xiaoyan and Yiqin Shi need to arrange the talisman array as soon as possible, Yiqin Shi quietly inquired about the layout of the entire courtyard for the first time, and there are not many people in the Li family, so they will not find it for a while.
"There's still half an hour, but luckily we still have a little time. Ni Xiaoyan said, "But in this way, if it fails, it will affect the Li family." β
"At this time, you are still worried about others, as long as we get the artifact gate, naturally we don't have to bear it, so we must succeed this time, I will help you protect the Fa, and the rest is up to you. Yiqin Shi shrugged and said.
"Okay, I'll lay it out first. Ni Xiaoyan abandoned the distracting thoughts in his heart, took out a spirit talisman from the acceptance ring, released it casually, and suddenly disappeared in the air, wandering between the entire courtyard.
The carrier and state of the rune array are refined in advance, so if you arrange it, you only need to infiltrate into the dark place according to the direction, and wait until it is completed to activate the rune array.
Halfway through, the great enemy of the entire Artifact City suddenly became noisy, the earth trembled like a roar, and the thick spiritual power fluctuations outside the city made the people in the city realize that something big had happened.
This was the precursor of the Third Army led by Hua Shao to start attacking the Artifact Gate, first using a small detachment to bombard the city gate with the powerful spirit cannon on the battleship, in order to cover up the activation of the talisman array by Ni Xiaoyan in the city.
Outside was already in a mess, and the major clans fell into a state of panic and chaos for the sudden siege, and even the courtyard that had always been silent began to exclaim.
After a while, Li Hou ran to Ni Xiaoyan's residence with a pair of frightened eyes, but found that there was no one inside, and just as he turned around to report, Yiqin Shi appeared in front of him: "Little guy, what's the urgency." β
"You...... Where did you go just now?" He didn't say slave, in fact, after a period of contact, Li Hou found that Ni Xiaoyan didn't have the consciousness of a slave at all.
Yiqin Shi smoothed her long hair, a pair of bright eyes flashed, and said with a smile: "Of course, I am ready to open the city gate to welcome the army of the Tianxin Society." β
The eldest sister didn't joke at this time, she was about to die, Li Hou felt a sudden cold qi in his body, which ran through the entire meridians, and even his breathing became stagnant: "You guys...... You're the Yun family in Orange Township. β
Yiqin's poem protruded: "Yes, but I listened to your words today and benefited a lot, so I ......"
"What's the matter?"
"Just get rid of the darkness and turn to the light, and plan to introduce the Tianxin Society to fight the great cause of the evil clan together, young man, you shouldn't be talking. Yiqin Shi leaned against the wall, blocking Li Hou's way, but her demeanor was indescribably comfortable.
Li Hou almost cried: "Then you need to be mentally prepared." They didn't expect that the two people they brought would make such a big noise, no matter how stupid they were, they also guessed that the two of them were definitely not from the Orange Township Yun family, but from the Tianxin Society.
The people of the entire courtyard were trapped by Yiqin Shi, and everyone added a layer of imprisonment, which would not be unlocked until the task was completed.
The chaos at the artifact gate lasted for half an hour, and it was only when the two Void Mirror Breakers appeared and sent more people to guard the city walls that it was quiet, and Yiqin Shi realized that it was time for her to make a move.
"Long time no see, from the Ran, the pot fairy, tsk, the pot fairy, haven't you always been very young, why, you are getting old so fast. Yiqin Shi suddenly appeared in the air of the artifact door and sneered contemptuously.
"Yiqin Shi!" The two cultivators were furious, and when they saw Yiqin Shi, they almost roared, if it weren't for the intention of Qin Shi, it was still a question whether Tianxin would be able to survive until now, but Yiqin Shi's strength was not weaker than the two of them.
"Yiqin Shi, what do you want, if you have any needs, just ask, my artifact door will try to meet it. "Although you can't wait to cut Yiqin Shi with a thousand knives, but the strength is there, even if the pot fairy joins forces with him, he can't leave the other party, and this is their base camp, once the war happens, they will suffer the most.
"Satisfied, heh, my appetite is very big, well, let me think about it, what do I need......" Yiqin Shi put on a serious and contemplative expression, making people feel that this is really the case, but in fact, Yi Qin Shi wanted to delay as much as possible to prevent the two of them from discovering Ni Xiaoyan.
Ni Xiaoyan, who was hiding in the shadows, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and the 1,200 rune plates and carriers had been arranged, and the rest was to be activated.
Because the time for the two places to teleport is not long, the materials needed this time are relatively small, and Ni Xiaoyan does not need to spend time building a stabilizer array platform.
