Originally, he wanted to lead Li Yunxiao to a secluded place to pass on his message. He didn't expect to be captured by the other party. The black-clothed man said bitterly, "Young Master Yunxiao, it's me."
He took off his black mask, revealing a helpless face with a bitter smile.
Li Yunxiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh, so it's Li Xian. What business do you have with me instead of following Fourth Uncle? " Li Xian was a collateral descendant of the Li family. His strength wasn't ordinary, so he was promoted to work for one of Li Yunxiao's uncles, Li Baifeng.
Li Xian's eyes revealed a look of shock as he said, "Young Master Yunxiao, turns out that those rumors about you were actually true! Defeating the peak Nine Star Warrior Lan Xuan with one move and saving the Princess with a golden needle. Young Master Yunxiao really hid it well, hiding it from everyone! "
Li Yunxiao said, "Get to the point."
Li Xian said, "Will you be attending the banquet in the palace tonight?"
Li Yunxiao looked at him indifferently, clearly impatient. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'm leaving."
Li Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Young Master Yunxiao, you know the current situation of the Li family. During this period of time, there have been many rumors about you, and it has attracted Li Yi's attention. Fourth Master received the news that if you attend the banquet tonight, he will definitely think of a way to target you. Now is not the time to contend with him, so Fourth Master hopes that you can retreat tonight to avoid a conflict with Li Yi. "
Li Yunxiao smiled faintly. "Boring. He's just a jumping clown. This young master has never placed him in his eyes." His gaze narrowed and he said coldly, "But if he doesn't know what's good for him and jumps in front of me, I don't mind crushing him to pieces."
Then, it would crush him into pieces …
Li Xian shook his head, thinking that Young Master Yunxiao was still too young. He said solemnly, "Li Yi isn't as simple as he appears on the surface. Right now, the entire Li family is under his control. Young Master Yunxiao has already endured for so long. Don't be impatient! Fourth Master and a few elders of the family are also secretly planning, waiting for the right time to fight this thief! "
Li Yunxiao sneered and said, "A foster son of the Li family who was bestowed the surname Li because he did a good job as a servant. How can he stir up trouble?"
Li Xian sternly said, "Young Master Yunxiao, you must not underestimate your opponent. This Li Yi is not only strong, but he also has a powerful force supporting him! The System was also worried about the old master and Young Master Yunxiao, so it did not dare to make a move. As long as Young Master Yunxiao avoids his attack, once Fourth Master and First Master are done with their preparations, they will naturally be able to annihilate these thieves in one fell swoop. "
The old man he was talking about was Li Yunxiao's father, the Flying Dragon General, Li Changfeng.
"Hmph, I have no interest in participating in your playthings. As for the faction behind Li Yi, I can't say for sure about the others, but at the very least, His Majesty the King definitely has a part in it. Otherwise, how could a famed family with unparalleled contributions and a peak Four Symbols Martial Lord like a clown be able to control them? "
Li Yunxiao's words caused Li Xian to be dumbfounded. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead in shock.
He had followed Fourth Master Li Baifeng for quite some time and usually heard some information. Only recently did he hear Li Baifeng mention that His Majesty's faction might be interfering in this matter. At that time, everyone was shocked to the point of disbelief. They didn't expect Li Yunxiao to guess it so easily...
He involuntarily said, "Young Master Yunxiao, h-how did you guess it?"
Li Yunxiao indifferently said, "It's very obvious. The old master's military contributions are first, and with a single call, hundreds will answer. My father also controls an army of a million, guarding the western border. The entire kingdom's military is practically my Li family's private army. If you were the king, would you be able to sleep? The Lan family's rapid rise in recent years, isn't it also one of His Majesty's chess pieces restricting us? But even so, I'm afraid Qin Zheng still can't eat well, so he made a puppet like Li Yi. With him to divide the Li family from within, he can also restrict my father far away in the western border. This is the situation His Majesty wishes to see. "
"This …" A huge wave rose in Li Xian's heart. He didn't expect the complicated situation to be seen so clearly by Li Yunxiao. He said in shock, "Are we just going to let ourselves be captured like this?"
Li Yunxiao faintly smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this. Go back and tell Fourth Uncle to relax and do what he needs to do. Let the old master and my father think about this. Isn't the current situation very good? The king is comfortable, so naturally he won't find trouble with us. If he doesn't find trouble with us, the old master and my father will also be comfortable. With great difficulty, we managed to create a balanced and happy situation. You people better not make a mess. "
Li Xian's eyeballs almost popped out. He said in shock, "Difficult … difficult …"
"Enough!" Li Yunxiao impatiently waved his hand and interrupted, "I have no interest in participating in your matters, but if Li Yi doesn't know what's good for him, or if Qin Zheng is tired of being king, I don't mind … changing his position."
"Ah! ~"
Li Xian was so shocked that he almost fell. He sucked in a breath of cold air and instantly froze. His mind buzzed as he watched Li Yunxiao's figure disappear. He was completely dumbfounded!
Soon, it was ten o 'clock in the evening. There was an endless stream of people in front of the palace. They were all important officials of the country, the pillars of the country.
Many students from Jia Lan Academy also followed their superiors to attend the banquet. Every banquet at the palace was a great opportunity for these people to interact and get closer to each other.
"Young Master Yun?"
Chen Zhen and Han Bai came together. Their families were also important military officials. Because they were always dissatisfied with the king's attitude toward the Li family, they rarely participated in these kinds of banquets. They usually sent some of their children to handle the situation.
"Young Master Yun, where have you been these past few days?" Chen Zhen ruthlessly punched Li Yunxiao's shoulder.
His expression immediately changed, and he looked at his swollen fist in shock. He involuntarily cried out, "Young Master Yun, what's wrong with your body? Why is it as hard as iron? My hand is swollen! "
Li Yunxiao smiled faintly and took out two Vitality Boosting Pills from his ring. He handed them to the two of them and said, "These two Vitality Boosting Pills, you should be able to directly break through to Martial Warrior after taking them."
Chen Zhen shouted in disbelief, "How is that possible? I've only just opened four chakras."
Han Bai picked up the Vitality Boosting Pill and looked at it. He said in astonishment, "These are really Vitality Boosting Pills? Young Master Yun, don't lie to us. I've seen Vitality Boosting Pills before. Most of them are grayish-white, and some of the better ones are milky white. How could they be so transparent? They're like glass beads. "
Li Yunxiao smiled and said, "If you don't want to eat them, give them back to me. These were refined by Master Zhang Qingfan."
"What?!" The two of them were shocked and hurriedly looked at the Vitality Boosting Pills as if they were treasures. Then, they carefully took out the jade box and put it away.
Han Bai suddenly said mysteriously, "Young Master Yun, did Master Zhang and Master Xu suddenly announce that they're going into seclusion have something to do with you?"
Li Yunxiao was astonished. "Oh? They're going into seclusion? Why do you say that? "
Chen Zhen nearly fainted. "Heavens, you actually don't know about such big news! Where have you been all this time? The two of them went into seclusion right after the princess recovered. Moreover, Master Zhang even gave you the Vitality Boosting Pill, so we guessed that it had something to do with you. "
Li Yunxiao smiled without saying anything. It was reasonable that Zhang Qingfan and Xu Han went into seclusion. That day, he answered all the questions that had accumulated in their hearts for many years. The two of them also needed a long time to comprehend.
"Young Master Yun, let's go in. It seems like almost everyone has arrived, "Han Bai urged.
"Wait, I'm waiting for someone."
"Waiting for someone? Who? "
"Yes, they're here."
When they finally saw the Meng Wu siblings in the distance, everyone was stunned. Chen Zhen stared at the newly dressed Meng Wu and frowned. "Why does this beauty look so familiar?"
Meng Wu's dressing made everyone's eyes light up. She was usually dressed simply because she was busy working all day, so she didn't have the time or money to dress up. But today, it was like a fresh and refined daffodil, causing people to be fascinated by its fragrance.
"Ah, it's you!" Han Bai exclaimed in shock. He immediately came to a realization. He pointed at Li Yunxiao and chuckled. "Wow, no wonder I haven't seen you these past few days. No wonder you don't know that the two masters are going into seclusion. Young Master Yun, how are you feeling? "
Chen Zhen also recognized Meng Wu and exclaimed in shock, "Such a short and flat-chested girl can look so beautiful after dressing up? Wow, Young Master Yun, your eyes are so sharp! You can even find a beauty like this! "
Meng Wu's face was flushed, and she was extremely nervous. She didn't even dare to think about coming to a place like the palace. Looking at the dream-like carriages outside the palace, she felt like she was in a dream.
Li Yunxiao smiled. "Let me reintroduce you. This is my friend, Meng Wu. This is her younger brother, and also my new disciple, Meng Bai. "
"Disciple … disciple?" Han Bai exclaimed in shock. "Young Master Yun is really willing to do anything to pick up girls!"
Meng Bai said angrily, "So you took me in as your disciple to pick up my sister?"
"Meng Bai!" Meng Wu was already flushed after being teased by everyone. Hearing Meng Bai's words, she immediately stomped her feet in anger.
The five of them chatted and laughed as they entered the palace. The banquet hall was located in a beautiful garden. Although it was just the beginning of spring and the flowers had not yet bloomed, the fragrance of flowers still assailed their noses. There was a small bridge over a flowing river in the courtyard, and soft music could be heard. It was like a paradise on earth, dazzling the Meng siblings.
The banquet hall was already filled with all kinds of tables. They were arranged according to the ranks of the officials, and the tables were more than a hundred meters long. Quite a number of people had already taken their seats, and all of them were happily chatting with each other.
There were a total of two rows in the main banquet hall, and there were only eight seats. Behind each seat were many attendants. Those who could enter the main banquet hall were all people who held the most power in the kingdom.
Although Zhang Qingfan had given Li Yunxiao an invitation, he hadn't indicated the seating order. In the main banquet hall, the Li Family's seat was already occupied by a handsome young man in luxurious clothes, talking cheerfully and wittily. When Li Yunxiao's group of five entered, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
It wasn't just because they were all teenagers, but also because Li Yunxiao, the rumored trash in the capital, had actually become famous during this time. Not only did he cripple Lan Xuan, who was hailed as a genius, with one move, but he also used the Golden Needle Acupuncture Technique to cure the princess's chronic illness. Not only did he cripple Lan Xuan, who was hailed as a genius, with one move, but he also used the Golden Needle Acupuncture Technique to cure the princess's chronic illness.
He would definitely be one of the main characters today.
