During this period of time, the Upper Three Heavens appeared to be peaceful on the surface, but in the dark, a storm was brewing.
The moment Li Xiongtu returned to the clan, he instantly became the treasure of the clan. Even Li Xiongtu himself didn't expect that he would receive such exceptional treatment the moment he arrived. From the looks of it, he was being groomed as the future core of the Li Clan.
Li Xiongtu was at a loss.
After returning to the clan, he thought that he would be content with a caretaker arranging a quiet place for him. He would slowly work on the rest in the future.
Who would have thought that after he returned, three generations of elders would come out of seclusion at the same time?
Although Li Xiongtu was calm, he was also somewhat flattered.
But there was one thing that made Li Xiongtu very unhappy. Because the attitude of the elders, including the clan master, towards him was a little strange. How should he put it? It wasn't cordial, nor was it distant. It wasn't even rejection. It was a kind of 'deliberate closeness'! Moreover, some of them were more or less cautious …
Li Xiongtu couldn't understand. What's going on? I'm just a small pawn who just came up from the Upper Three Heavens. Any one of you can crush me to death with just a finger. Why are you still like this?
Moreover, people often asked him some inexplicable questions. The most common thing they had in common was that they were all very interested in their friends.
Li Xiongtu was extremely depressed. For so many years, he was obsessed with martial arts. Other than admiration for Gu Duxing and Dong Wushang, where did he have any other friends?
Later on, when he was asked more and more, Li Xiongtu wasn't the kind of person who would twist his words. He just directly said, "I don't have any friends, much less any brothers who have gone through life and death together."
But he didn't expect that after he said this, many people's attitudes became even more ambiguous. They actually nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, this is how it should be. I think so too. You don't have any friends, no brothers, hahaha … It's how it should be, how it should be …"
Li Xiongtu couldn't figure it out.
He asked them why they asked this, but none of them said anything. They just smiled and looked at him meaningfully …
The most ridiculous thing was that after an elder saw him, he said, "As expected of … your aptitude is indeed not bad."
As expected of … what? Li Xiongtu couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brains.
Then, he would occasionally overhear other people talking about him, and it would be in bits and pieces. "Li Xiong Tu, this little one, is really … Haha, he's really scheming. Look at that silly look, those who don't know would really think that he's not … Haha …"
Li Xiongtu thought hard for a long time, but he became more and more confused.
After that, everyone urged him to practice martial arts without holding anything back. As for techniques and resources, he had everything he needed. Li Xiong Tu secretly observed and realized that the direct descendants of the other families only received thirty purple crystals per month. This was already an astronomical figure. Even Li Ba Tian only received fifty purple crystals. Li Jue, who was the first in the family, received eighty purple crystals per month. As for himself … he actually received a terrifying two hundred purple crystals per month!
It was almost twice as much as Li Jue!
Furthermore, there was actually no one who raised any objections … Even Li Jue, who was known as the number one among the younger generation, was a person who was neither servile nor overbearing when facing the old ancestor. He was even more so when facing those of the same generation. But when he saw him, he still greeted him with a smile. There wasn't much enthusiasm, but there was definitely no enmity. There was even a faint desire to mend relations …
Even someone like Li Xiongtu was a little scared in the end. "What … What's going on …"
Thus, he started his life in the Upper Three Heavens with such confusion. It had to be said that Li Xiongtu's aptitude was indeed extraordinary, and he had the full support of the huge family behind him. Once he calmed down and cultivated, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds …
The faster his cultivation improved, the more gratified everyone was. They weren't surprised at all. Generally speaking, it was considered fast for an Emperor to break through one stage in three years. If someone broke through one stage in a year, they would be considered a genius, and would definitely cause a commotion.
But Li Xiongtu relied on a mysterious force in his body to increase his cultivation by one stage in half a month! This should have been something that would shock the world, but the elders of the Li Clan all acted as if it was a matter of course …
This made Li Xiongtu even more confused. "What's going on? Damn it, are they trying to suffocate me? "
However, the number of people who came to chat with him had decreased recently. Furthermore, everyone was in a hurry with a heavy expression on their faces. It seemed that something big had happened. He could vaguely hear that the conflicts between the various major clans and the Li Clan were gradually increasing …
When Li Xiongtu asked, everyone smiled and told him not to worry, he would definitely be fine … Damn it, what am I worried about? What can happen to me …
…
Zhuge Clan.
Fifth Small Courtyard.
Diwu Qingrou sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, holding a book in his hand and looking very relaxed. There was a cup of tea in front of him, and the fragrance of the tea rose in spirals.
A gentle breeze blew, and the bamboo forest swayed and rustled. The whole courtyard was quiet and peaceful …
A person appeared behind him silently. For a long time, Diwu Qingrou didn't seem to have noticed at all. He focused on reading and smiled lightly.
This person finally couldn't hold it in and said, "So carefree."
Diwu Qingrou turned around and smiled. "So it's Seventh Brother."
The person who came was the Seventh Brother of the Zhuge Clan's generation, Zhuge Yunwu. He was also the one in the Zhuge Clan who was most compatible with Diwu Qingrou.
Actually, just from the fact that he was compatible with Diwu Qingrou, it could be seen that this Zhuge Yunwu was definitely not a simple person!
If he was an ordinary person, why would Diwu Qingrou be compatible with him?
"Qingrou, the Big Clans are already in turmoil now, and war is about to reach the Heavenly Layer. But you're still so carefree here." Zhuge Yunwu was dressed in plain clothes, and his expression was calm. There was a smile on his face, and his eyes were long and slender. His face was white and beardless, and he looked like a person who didn't care about the affairs of the world at all.
Even though he was talking about the situation in the Heavenly Layer, he was still calm and casual, like a breeze brushing past one's ears.
"Even if the war reaches the Heavenly Layer, as long as Seventh Brother is here, nothing will happen to the Zhuge Clan!" Diwu Qingrou smiled and said, "But … Seventh Brother must have something to tell me this time. I'm all ears. "
"Yes, you're right. Seventh Brother wouldn't visit without a reason. Since he's here at your house of wisdom, there must be something he can't decide." Zhuge Yunwu smiled gently.
"Seventh Brother, please tell me." Diwu Qingrou finally closed the book and raised his head to look at Zhuge Yunwu.
"Let's be frank. Qingrou, I know you're capable. I'm here to ask you an answer." Zhuge Yunwu said directly.
"The answer …" Diwu Qingrou seemed to have guessed what Zhuge Yunwu wanted to ask. Before Zhuge Yunwu could ask, he frowned.
Zhuge Yunwu sat down in front of him and said softly, "Now, the Zhuge Clan is planning to gradually increase the friction between the Li Clan and us. We're trying to cause a conflict and reveal that layer …"
Diwu Qingrou replied with an 'oh'.
Zhuge Yunwu took in a breath and said, "Qingrou, you must know that this is because … the Tribulation Sword Master …"
Diwu Qingrou frowned and didn't say anything.
Zhuge Yunwu looked at Diwu Qingrou's frowning brows and his eyes flashed. He said quietly, "The Li Clan has recently received … Li Xiongtu from the Upper Three Heavens. Qingrou, what do you think of this person?"
Zhuge Yunwu's eyes were like stars. He stared at Diwu Qingrou's face and said, "Li Xiongtu, 24 years old. He's from the Li Clan of the Upper Three Heavens. His aptitude has been outstanding since he was young. He had a foundation when he was three years old. He broke through to Martial Warrior when he was five years old. He broke through to Martial Master when he was nine years old. He became a Martial Great when he was thirteen years old. He became a Martial Revered when he was seventeen years old. He became a Martial King when he was ten years old. However, before he came to the Upper Three Heavens, during the battle at the Lake of Despair, he was a peak second stage Martial Emperor when he was twenty-four years old. Moreover, his combat power was enough to defeat a normal fourth stage Martial Emperor! He could even be on par with a fifth stage Martial Emperor! "
Diwu Qing Rou grunted and said, "Are you saying that he has directly advanced from a fourth grade King Level Expert to a second grade Emperor Level Expert within a year … or perhaps less than a year? Suspicious? "
Zhuge Yunwu nodded and looked at him. He was quiet for a while, as if he was giving him time to think. Then, he said, "Recently, there was news that ever since Li Xiongtu came to the Upper Three Heavens, he had improved to a third stage Martial Emperor within half a month."
Diwu Qingrou's eyebrows moved, "Is there such a thing?"
Zhuge Yunwu smiled faintly, "This speed is very fast, right?"
Diwu Qingrou didn't say anything and started to think.
"Also, before he came to the Upper Three Heavens, someone gave him an elixir. At that time, he was seriously injured and on the verge of death. However, after he took it, he immediately recovered. " Zhuge Yunwu emphasized, "And that person's move was … What harm is there in slaughtering the entire world!"
"That elixir is a heavy elixir! Other than the heavy elixir, there's no other elixir in the world that can have such an effect! " When Zhuge Yunwu said the words' heavy pill ', he obviously emphasized it again. Moreover, there was a hint of excitement in his voice.
Diwu Qingrou smiled faintly and didn't comment.
"At that time, the people from the big clans and the law-enforcement officers walked together and supervised each other. They almost never left each other. That person didn't seem to find a chance. So … when he was about to enter the Upper Three Heavens, he took the risk to give the elixir. After exchanging a blow, he immediately disappeared! Even the law-enforcement officers couldn't catch up with him. "
Zhuge Yunwu said softly, "There's only one suspicious point in this matter. That is, there was a strange phenomenon in the sky. If that person was really the master of the Calamity Sword, he should have appeared at the place where the strange phenomenon appeared, and not to give the elixir! "
"However, according to the description of the power of that move and the way it changed, the few elders of the big clans all agreed that it was the fiercest move of the Calamity Sword Master's Calamity Sword Technique. 'What harm is there in slaughtering the entire world!' And, there's absolutely no mistake! "
