Chapter 25: The Battle

"I'm afraid I've caused a big disaster for the Li family this time......" On the way back, Li Yan, who had calmed down, thought to himself. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The reason why he came to see this Deacon Zhang in person this time was actually just to confirm whether the death of his father Li Dongcheng was related to him, and all he thought about at that time was the word father's hatred, and he didn't think too much about the consequences of his actions. I didn't think that Zhang was arrogant, and he didn't take him as a young patriarch in his eyes at all, and as soon as he was forced by him, he told the truth without hesitation, and then there was no way out.

The enemy who killed his father is right in front of him, he is a young man who has not yet grown up, even if he has experienced many things, how can he calm down?

"Anyway, this time it's a matter in Zhongzhou, even if its sect has suspicions, I'm afraid it won't be able to contact my Li family's head. Li Yan said to himself.

After pondering all the way like this, he finally couldn't figure out a good solution, and the only way left for him was to resign himself to fate.

"Forget it, don't think about it. Li Yan saw that the Li family's mansion was in sight, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and jumped off the horse. This time he had come out secretly, and he didn't want anyone to see him, so he abandoned his horse and walked back to his lodgings quietly after the rest of the journey.

"Xiao Yan, why haven't I seen you in the past two days?" asked He Yue in the living room.

"I practiced in the mountains for two days, and I entered the realm of selflessness for a while, and I didn't come back. But I don't know how Sister Yue has cultivated these days?" Li Yan said.

"In the past, I only faintly felt that the moonlight in the air liked to shine on me, but since I practiced the exercises you gave me, I immediately felt different, the moonlight not only liked to shine on me, but even drilled into my body, which was cool and comfortable. He Yue said.

"It's great that I don't want that exercise to be so useful to Sister Yue!" Li Yan said happily.

The sister and brother chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to practice. Cultivators are different from ordinary people, and time is the most precious thing for them.

A few days later, the four elders came to visit. There were also five teenagers and a middle-aged man who came with him, and Li Yan knew each other at a closer look, but he had little contact with him before. Since it is a lack of contact, there must be no festival, and the selection of the four elders has also taken a lot of thought.

The middle-aged man is named Li Dongkui, and the five teenagers are Li Qiang, Li Hui, Li Shu, Li Wen, and Li Yang.

After the four elders left, Li Yan chatted with the six of them for a while, feeling quite satisfied.

"Since you came here today, you must have been prepared in your hearts, that is, you will have to work in the branch of my Li family in the future. Then I not only ask you to be able to do things, but I also want you to be loyal to me, even in the face of the four elders. Is it possible?" Li Yan said in a solemn tone.

"It can be done!" said the six in unison. Apparently it has been thought out before.

"I don't need you to make any vows, but since you have decided to come to me, there is no room for repentance, and if not, I don't mind cleaning the door myself! Li Yan said.

"Don't worry, patriarch, I've already thought it through!" Li Dongkui said solemnly. The other five then expressed the same sentiment.

"I have six pills here, called the Cleansing Pill, which can cut hair and wash the marrow, which is the most conducive to cultivation, a few of you take it out and divide it, and let Li Fu arrange a place for you to eat later." Don't let anyone else know about this matter, otherwise it will definitely bring disaster to my Li family!" Li Yan said.

"This is the legendary elixir ......" The eyes of the six widened when they heard this.

"Go ahead. Li Yan pushed the pill forward on the table, Li Dongkui took it in his hand, nodded at Li Yan, and quickly left with the other five.

"Ancestors and ancestors, I am worthy of you. Li Yan muttered to himself. Xiuzhen has to leave the world, and he is already working on the arrangements.

Time passed little by little, and Li Yan was mainly studying a wind escape technique during this time, but unfortunately there was no one to guide him, and his entry was slow. It's not that he has a poor understanding, it's just that those cultivation texts are too difficult, and for a layman like him, it is not easy to barely understand them. If it weren't for Li Hongchou who directly slammed the magic spell of the Four Holy Beast Banners into his sea of knowledge, he wouldn't have controlled it so quickly and skillfully.

On this day, Li Yan was contemplating the retreat method, and suddenly noticed that someone outside was approaching, and he was not like a person in the house. After a moment's thought, he pushed the door open. The man was disturbed and turned back and retreated. Li Yan snorted and went to chase after him. The two of them went one after the other, and soon entered the mountains in the distance.

"What a fast body!" Li Yan saw that the figure of the person with the long sword on his back in front of him was less than a hundred feet away from him, but even if he used all his strength, he could only approach slowly. Of course, he didn't urge the magic skill, otherwise don't say that they only gather a hundred zhang, even a thousand zhang distance will pass by in the blink of an eye.

After another chase, the man suddenly stopped.

"Why didn't this person run away?" Li Yan wondered in his heart, but his footsteps did not stop.

After a while, the man turned around and looked at Li Yan, who had just chased closer. But it's an old man with a thin face.

"It turned out to be a cultivator! And a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building!" Li Yan had time to look at him at this time, but he didn't want to be taken aback immediately. How could he have imagined that a dignified cultivator would also travel on two legs like him?

"Your name is Li Yan?" the old man suddenly asked.

"Yes, but I don't know who the predecessor is?" Li Yan looked solemn.

"You don't have a ring?" the old man asked, glancing at his hand, and suddenly frowned.

"Ring?" Li Yan was stunned when asked, how did this person know that I had a ring?

"It's the ring, didn't your father pass it on to you?" asked the old man.

"How do you know?" Li Yan was even more surprised at this time, except for their father and son, even a few elders didn't know.

"You don't have to worry about this, I just want to see your ring," the old man's tone was unmistakable, giving people a condescending feeling,

"Why do you say I'll show you?" Li Yan frowned and sneered.

The old man seemed to be angry when he heard this, and his brows furrowed, making his thin face look even more majestic. He snorted lightly, "Why? Just by this!" and didn't say hello, and suddenly a vertical sword finger suddenly poked towards Li Yan, so that it was actually the number of ways to refer to the sword.

Li Yan didn't expect the old man to say that he would do it, and he didn't hesitate, feeling a little caught off guard. But what he was most afraid of was this, and while retreating backwards, he mobilized his true qi of about level 10, ready to fight back at any time. Although this old man has the cultivation of the early stage of foundation building, he is not much of a threat to him now, if he can use the Four Holy Beast Banners, he thinks that he can defeat him without much effort. Of course, now he is playing an ordinary martial artist who is at the tenth level of Qi training, and he still knows what should be used and what should not be used.

Li Yan's reaction was completely expected by the old man, the direction of the sword finger remained the same, but the tip of his toe lightly touched the ground, and he still attacked fiercely.

"Hmm, what kind of move is this, why is it so weird?" Li Yan had already made defensive preparations in the process of retreating, but he had a feeling that he couldn't start with the seemingly simple finger of the old man, the trajectory of that finger was obviously straight, but for some reason, he just felt that it was constantly changing direction, and there was always an illusion in his heart, even if he resisted with all his might, he would definitely not be able to resist it.
