The news that Li Xiu brought shocked Junior Leopard. It was not because he knew that someone was going to make trouble at Lu Shaoyou's wedding, but the person that he said was completely different from what Junior Leopard knew.
"Chen Ning, who is that?!"
"It's the nephew of the oldest old turtle in the Jin!" Speaking of Chen Ning's background, Li Xiu's face revealed a rare solemn expression. "This guy's cultivation is not high, he is only a Level Five Bone-Forging Realm expert, but he is meticulous and cunning. He is a troublesome guy!"
"Meticulous and cunning?!" Junior Leopard slightly raised his eyebrows. "I don't think so. This kind of thing has not been done yet, but the whole city knows about it. I don't think he is a cunning person!"
"Apart from Uncle Yuan, I'm the only one who knows about this!" Li Xiu said, "It was Chen Ning who sent someone to tell Uncle Yuan. I accidentally heard their conversation outside!"
Unintentionally overheard their conversation!?
Junior Leopard raised his gaze and looked at Li Xiu with a strange expression. "Little Li, do you think I'm an idiot? It's not like I've been to the Admiral's study room every day. I've stood there for a few days, just at the door, but I've never heard the conversation inside. Could it be that your cultivation has soared these few days?"
"Uh, no, it was really unintentional!" Li Xiu was really embarrassed by what he said, "I know that guy, so I secretly followed him to see what he was up to. I did not expect to hear such a thing!"
Seeing that Li Xiu was unwilling to talk about this issue, Junior Leopard naturally would not be too entangled.
"Then what does this have to do with you? Are you very familiar with Lu Shaoyou?! "
"I don't know him, but he is the expert that I most hope to challenge!"
Speaking of Lu Shaoyou, Li Xiu once again revealed that expression of a martial arts addict. But looking at it this way, this guy, whether it was temperament, tone, or even style of doing things, was very similar to Lu Shaoyou.
No, it should be said that Lu Shaoyou was very similar to him.
Before meeting Li Xiu, Junior Leopard didn't feel anything. But now that he was familiar with Li Xiu and thinking about Lu Shaoyou, he always felt that Lu Shaoyou's aloof and peerless temperament was somewhat fake. Li Xiu's Qi Power might not be comparable to his, but Junior Leopard believed that in time, once Li Xiu's cultivation was successful and he broke through the Bone-Forging Realm and entered the Tendon-Changing Realm, he would absolutely be able to completely suppress Lu Shaoyou.
"Even if you want to challenge him, it has nothing to do with this matter!" Junior Leopard said, "Don't tell me you want to take this opportunity to make trouble with Chen Ning and take the opportunity to challenge Lu Shaoyou?!"
"Of course not. I'm not a fool. Lu Shaoyou is a Level Eight expert. I haven't even entered the Bone-Forging Realm. How can I fight with him?" Li Xiu said angrily, "I want you to help me deal with Chen Ning!"
"Chen Ning?"
Junior Leopard asked in confusion, "Do you have a grudge against him?"
"I don't have a grudge, but what I despise the most is this kind of guy who secretly plays tricks!"
Looking at Li Xiu's distorted face, Junior Leopard couldn't help but laugh, "Looking at you, do you think I will believe that you don't have a grudge?!"
"Really … no …!" Li Xiu's face turned red. His eyes wandered around and he didn't dare to look at Junior Leopard. His words were very tough.
"Forget it, I don't care what the relationship between you two is. You just said that you want me to deal with Chen Ning. How?!"
"The reason why he sent someone to find Uncle Yuan this time is that he is afraid of trouble after he fails. He wants to find a way out for himself. He also knows that Uncle Yuan doesn't like others to take advantage of him. That's why he wants to make things clear before it happens!"
"This is even more troublesome. Since he wants the General to find a way out for him, and he also disclosed such an important matter to the General, it means that the relationship between him and the General is not ordinary. If I help you deal with Chen Ning and the General knows it, it will be terrible!"
"Their relationship is not that good. It's just that a long time ago, Uncle Yuan owed him a favor and hasn't paid it back. So now, even if his request is too excessive, Uncle Yuan can't refuse it. However, he just came to Uncle Yuan to ask for a way out. There's nothing else. Even if we go to trouble him, Uncle Yuan won't care about it!"
"I still don't understand why you want to find trouble with him. Moreover, even if you want to find trouble with him, it has nothing to do with me. I don't want to get involved in this mess!"
"I don't have the confidence to deal with him alone!"
Seeing that Junior Leopard was unwilling, Li Xiu was a little anxious. "He is a Level Five expert. It will be difficult for me to deal with him!"
"But I can't follow you to ambush a Level Five expert. I don't even know the origin of this expert. Little Li, I'm different from you. You are the Young Master of the Li Family and the future Sect Leader. Even if you really cause trouble, you can just hide in Pingzhou. Even the Emperor can't do anything to you. I'm different. I have old and young people in my family and I don't have any foundation. If I really cause trouble, it won't just be my problem!"
"This …" Hearing what Junior Leopard said, Li Xiu became silent, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, "These, I haven't thought about it!"
"It's not that you haven't thought about it, it's that you never need to think about it!" Junior Leopard said with a bitter smile, "Your family is destined to act without too many scruples. If there is a big trouble, your family will help you to bear it. So you can act unscrupulously and do whatever you want. But after all, there are only a few people like you in this world. I'm just a wild boy from a mountain village. It's impossible for me to act without scruples like you!"
"It's my fault!" Li Xiu seemed to have figured something out. He nodded and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't think it through and made it difficult for you!"
"It's not about right or wrong. It's just that our positions are different and we look at the problem from different angles!" Junior Leopard said, "But I'm still very curious. Why do you have to deal with Chen Ning? And who is the oldest old tortoise in the Great Jin that you just mentioned?"
"It's Chen Yifu, the current Prime Minister, Elder Chen Zhu who can cover the sky with one hand!" Li Xiu said, "As for Chen Ning, I really don't like him and want to teach him a lesson!"
"If you really want to teach him a lesson, you don't need to use martial arts. You just need to release what you want to do and make it known to the world. Then his plan will be ruined. Isn't that enough?"
"I've also thought about this, but I always feel that it's not open and aboveboard. Moreover, it may also implicate Uncle Yuan and make it difficult for him!" Li Xiu said with some embarrassment.
"In this case, I can't do anything about it. But I think it's better for you not to find trouble with him!"
"Why?"
"The loss outweighs the gain!" Junior Leopard slowly counted his fingers and said, "First, you don't have any deep hatred with him. You just don't like him. So, for you, you can do it or not. But for him, it's obvious that this matter is very important to him since he dared to make trouble at Lu Shaoyou's wedding. If it's ruined by you, then you'll really have a big grudge. Secondly, he's a Level Five master and you're only at Level Three. Although your sword intent has been formed and your swordsmanship is marvelous and you have the qualification to challenge people at a higher level, it doesn't mean that you can win. What if you lose? Moreover, even if you win, I'm afraid it'll be a pyrrhic victory. Moreover, after winning, what good will it do you if you ruin his plan? Third, Chen Ning may not only represent himself. You just said that he is crafty. Since he is crafty, then he shouldn't be like you, ruining someone's marriage just because he doesn't like him. The hatred of stealing a wife is similar to the hatred of killing a father. Even if he has a grudge against Lu Shaoyou, I'm afraid he won't use this way to take revenge. Most likely, he was instructed by someone, such as the old turtle you just mentioned, the current Prime Minister. If this is the case, if you deal with him, it may be like poking a hornet's nest and provoking a lot of people who can't be trifled with. So, I advise you to think carefully about whether you can do it or not! "
After saying these words, Li Xiu lay in front of Junior Leopard's window and was stunned for a while. Then he came back to his senses and let out a long sigh. The way he looked at Junior Leopard became strange. "What you said is really reasonable. Why didn't I think of this before?"
"Because you never thought about it, so you can't think of it!" Junior Leopard patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Well, Little Li, it's getting late. Go back and have a rest. I can't help you with this, but I also advise you not to go!"
"Well, I'll go back and think about it!"
… …
… …
"What a troublesome Childe!"
Li Xiu left, but Junior Leopard was a little tired. It was not because of what Li Xiu wanted to do, but because of the news Li Xiu brought him.
"Chen Ning, the nephew of the current Prime Minister, a Level Five expert, is going to ruin Lu Shaoyou's wedding!" Junior Leopard didn't know what was at stake, so he couldn't think of a reason. "Is Miss Ma really a beauty that can cause the downfall of a country? That can't be right. I've seen her before. Although she's pretty, she's not to the extent that she can cause the downfall of a country and its people. Is it because Lu Shaoyou's character is too bad and he has offended too many people? That doesn't exist either. Even if Lu Shaoyou is really a bastard, this matter is connected to both the Mingyi School and the Yunzhou Governor Mansion. Neither of them is easy to deal with. It seems that there's only one reason! "
Benefits, a naked relationship of benefits.
When it came to benefits, there would naturally be people who would be disappointed. If one party gained benefits, then there would naturally be people who would lose benefits.
Just like the Wu Family and Tian Long Taoism in Yunzhou. On the surface, they seemed to have nothing to do with this matter, but in fact, they were the ones who lost benefits. Therefore, in the dark, Tian Long Taoism and Mingyi School had several conflicts. Nobody knew how many benefits Mingyi School had obtained from Mingyi School as compensation. That was why they appeared to be harmonious on the surface.
However, under this harmonious appearance, how many entanglements of benefits were hidden?
Junior Leopard didn't know. What he knew was only the Wu Family and Tian Long Taoism. However, the Wu Family and Tian Long Taoism were only a corner of this huge network of benefits. There were more interests that would be affected by this marriage. Some wanted them to succeed, and some didn't want them to succeed.
The complexity of this was naturally not something Junior Leopard could guess at the moment.
