Although Yang Li was extremely excited in his heart, his expression did not change. He still maintained a calm and indifferent appearance.
As long as he could cure the poison in the Nangong family, he would be able to pull the Nangong family to their side. At the same time, it meant that the three great rogue cultivators of the Southern Fire Region would also join them at the same time.
In fact, Yang Li also understood the reason why the three great rogue cultivators did not join them directly. It was because they were not strong enough to face the crisis.
If the four sects were to be destroyed in the end, the three great rogue cultivators would not be able to escape the fate of death. It would be fine if they were alone and did not have descendants. However, the three of them had disciples, and they raised them like children. Naturally, they did not want anything to happen to their descendants.
However, if the four sects succeeded in winning over the Nangong family, it would be different. Although the Nangong family and the Dongfang family were hidden families, the half-law realm cultivators and the sect masters of the various sects all knew about them. They also knew that the Nangong family was stronger than the Dongfang family.
Under the situation where the forces of the Forest Bird Region had no time to intervene, if the four sects could win over the Nangong family and the Feng family, then the four sects could completely fight against the two great sects without being at a disadvantage. When the younger generation completely grew up, the two great sects would be nothing more than sects that could be destroyed with a wave of their hand.
In the eyes of other forces, the four sects of the Southern Fire Region were just small sects. Even the two great sects could barely be considered as medium-sized sects. It was only because they were located in the Southern Fire Region that they called themselves medium-sized and large sects so that their disciples could cultivate in peace.
However, as the cultivators gradually became stronger, they would eventually find out about these things. By then, they would have completely grown up, so they would naturally not betray their sects because of a well-intentioned lie. Instead, they would follow the sects and lie to their disciples out of goodwill.
As for the Huo Clan of the Southern Fire Region and the Xue Clan that assisted the Feng Clan, they were both truly large forces. They all had Dharma State cultivators in their sects. To them, the Southern Fire Region was just a small matter. Even if the forces of the Southern Fire Region were completely destroyed, it would not affect them at all.
Now that the Xue family and the Huo Clan were fighting for a spirit stone mine and had no time to care about them, the Yi Clan and the two great sects dared to make trouble. They were also afraid that the younger generation of the four sects and the Feng Clan would grow up. They knew that when the younger generation of the four sects and the Feng Clan grew up, they would only be a sect that could be destroyed with a wave of their hand.
Previously, the four sects and the Feng Clan were indeed suppressed by the two great sects and the Yi Clan. However, as long as Yang Li was able to obtain the Nangong family's alliance, the Southern Fire Region would no longer have anything to fear, and they could travel boldly in the continent.
Furthermore, Yang Li had the full support of the Lunar Exploration Association. It could be said that after obtaining the Nangong family, if Yang Li had the intention to destroy the two great sects, all the forces that were related to him would be able to completely destroy the two great sects even if they had to pay a price.
"Young Master Li Yue?" Nangong Qi said a lot of things to himself, but Yang Li was in a state of contemplation and didn't reply to him at all. After he finished speaking, he realized that Yang Li was thinking about something. After hesitating for a while, he still called out to Yang Li.
"En? What's wrong? Captain Qi? "Yang Li was still in the midst of contemplation, and his brain hadn't processed the situation yet. He asked in a daze.
"Nothing much. What was Young Master Li Yue thinking about just now?" Nangong Qi asked curiously.
"I was thinking about how to detoxify the Young Lady's poison. We have known each other for so long, but I still don't know the Young Lady's name. I wonder if Captain Qi can introduce her to me?" Yang Li replied casually, turning his head to look at Nangong Yanran, who had fallen asleep on his back, saying softly.
"Sigh, look at my terrible memory. I forgot to introduce you to Young Master Li Yue."
"My name is Nangong Qi, and I am one of the thirty captains of the Nangong family's guards. The Young Lady's name is Nangong Yanran, and she is the daughter of the family head, Nangong Feng. The family head's wife is called Qi Xiu, and she is the daughter of the family head of a small family in the Southern Water Region. She is also extremely talented in cultivation."
"Now that the Young Lady has fallen asleep, there are some things that I would like to tell Young Master Li Yue in advance. If there is anything that you need help from the Nangong family, it would be best to say it through the Young Lady's own mouth. This will reduce the impact on your reputation."
Yang Li didn't comment and casually replied, "Let's talk about this matter when we meet the Nangong family head."
Nangong Qi heard this and didn't say anything.
"En, by the way, Captain Qi, how is the Dongfang family's strength?" Yang Li suddenly remembered the middle-aged man who boasted to him and asked.
Hearing Yang Li ask about the Dongfang family, Nangong Qi naturally told him everything he knew. After all, Yang Li was his savior.
"We don't know the Dongfang family's strength in recent years, but according to Dong Fangxiong's Harmonious Spirit Realm sixth level strength twenty-five years ago, the Dongfang family now has at least three Half Law Realm cultivators."
"There are about sixty Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators, nearly a hundred Controlling Spirit Realm cultivators, and a few hundred Illuminating Spirit Realm disciples. However, we don't know the exact number."
Hearing this, Yang Li nodded thoughtfully. This level of strength had indeed surpassed the two major sects. It was equivalent to three-fifths of the total number of cultivators of the two major sects.
It was equivalent to the number of cultivators of two of the four major sects. In the Tenlan Sect alone, there were no more than thirty Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators and less than sixty Controlling Spirit Realm cultivators. Although there were more Illuminating Spirit Realm cultivators, the total number of disciples and elders was only a little more than a hundred.
The strength of the hidden sects was not bad at all. However, this should be related to the fact that their families had Half Law Realm cultivation methods. After all, different cultivation methods would slightly increase the speed of cultivation.
"May I know what the Dongfang family relies on to ensure their own cultivation resources?" Yang Li asked out of curiosity. The hidden sects rarely appeared in the world, so they must have a way to obtain cultivation resources. Otherwise, no matter how rich their capital was, it would be used up.
Hearing this, Nangong Qi became silent and said, "Young master Li Yue, forgive me for not being able to tell you about this. Because our Nangong family and the Dongfang family obtain cultivation resources the same way, I can only tell you that our cultivation resources are obtained through normal means."
Hearing this, Yang Li didn't say anything, nor did he explain why he asked these questions. At this time, he suddenly thought of a person and asked, "Captain Qi, do you know Dongfang Ruyue?"
"Dongfang Ruyue is the Young Master of the Dongfang family. It is said that she is currently at the fifth level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm. Young hero, why are you suddenly asking about this person?" Nangong Qi was stunned for a moment. Dongfang Ruyue's name was quite famous among the hidden sects. After all, she was the Young Master of the Dongfang family.
Her talent could be considered excellent. Although she was only at the fifth level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm, she could still fight against a cultivator at the eighth level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm.
"Nothing much, I just have a bit of a grudge against him, so I beat him up." Yang Li said casually. At the same time, he knew who the middle-aged man was. It was the Dongfang family's Master, Dong Fangxiong.
"What?! So you were the one who beat him up! " Nangong Qi immediately felt extremely shocked in his heart. He knew that Dongfang Ruyue had been violently beaten up by someone. It was precisely because he knew that he felt that it was inconceivable. Dongfang Ruyue was not an ordinary disciple of an aristocratic family.
Yang Li was only at the second level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm, but he was able to beat Dong Fangxiong. This really shocked him.
Just as they were about to open their mouths to speak, a creepy laughter suddenly rang in their ears.
"I didn't expect you to be able to come out alive. However, it doesn't matter. With me here, you won't be able to return to the Nangong family alive no matter what."
Yang Li and Nangong Qi's vigilance was immediately raised to the highest. They saw a person wearing blue clothes with the word "Nangong" embroidered on the cuffs appear in front of them.
This man was different from ordinary people. His hair was tied up in a high bun and hung loosely behind his back like a woman's, giving him a strange feeling. He had an oval face with slender eyebrows. He had a pair of phoenix eyes that only women would have. His nose bridge was straight, his lips were slightly red, and his skin was extremely fair.
If it was not for the fact that the voice coming from his mouth was a man's, Yang Li would have probably thought that this man was a woman.
"Nangong Yao! What do you mean by that? " Nangong Qi looked at the man in front of him with an ugly expression. The person who had come was the Second Elder's grandson, Nangong Yao. His cultivation had already reached the fourth level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm. In a real life and death battle, he could even match up to a cultivator at the seventh level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm.
He was also a great genius in the Nangong family. However, because his actions were strange and his style was like a woman's, many disciples of the Nangong family called him Young Yao. Even he himself did not reject this title.
The Second Elder had always been extremely dissatisfied with the family leader. He felt that the family had been dragged down by the family leader, so he was extremely radical.
Now that the Second Elder's grandson had appeared here, it was clear that he knew where they had gone after leaving the family. He had come to kill them, wanting to make Nangong Yanran stay here forever and force the family leader to die from the poison. However, his plan was destined to fail. Yang Li's eyelids lifted slightly, and he calmly looked at Nangong Yao in front of him. He said, "I'll give you three minutes to disappear from my sight. Otherwise, you will definitely regret appearing here!"
When Nangong Yao heard this, he instantly laughed wildly. Yang Li silently looked at Nangong Yao and laughed, not saying a word. After a while, Nangong Yao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "This is the funniest joke I've heard this year. You're just a piece of trash at the second level of the Illuminating Spirit Realm? You dare to say that you can make me disappear from your sight in one minute? Aren't you too naive? "
Nangong Yao's voice became shrill because of his laughter, and his eyes began to emit a cold light.
"You still have one minute," Yang Li said indifferently, completely ignoring Nangong Yao's words.
"So what if I don't leave today? I want to see how you will make me regret it! "The coldness in Nangong Yao's eyes became even colder.
Nangong Yanran's laughter and voice woke Nangong Yanran up.
When she saw Nangong Yao appear in front of her, Nangong Yanran's eyes suddenly lit up. She softly called out, "Brother Yao, are you here to pick up Yanran?"
Nangong Yanran clearly hadn't heard the conversation between the two of them. Because she was sick, she didn't sense the strange atmosphere Within The Field.
When Nangong Yao heard Nangong Yanran's words, his heart ached slightly. The coldness in his eyes also disappeared, and he felt extremely complicated. There was heartache, pity, pain, and sadness.
He also didn't want to kill Nangong Yanran, but he had to listen to his grandfather's orders. Nangong Yanran had been obedient and sensible since she was young. She often followed behind him and called out to Brother Yao.
He was also extremely fond of Nangong Yanran. When his grandfather asked him to come, he would rather die than come. In the end, he was forced to come by his parents and grandfather.
However, he had already thought it through. After killing the other two, he would send Nangong Yanran to a place where no one knew her. At that time, he would visit Nangong Yanran every day.
