Nangong Lei's words were like a clap of thunder, causing everyone's eyes to freeze. The eyes of the old man sitting opposite Nangong Lei lit up and he shouted, "Second Brother, are you serious?"
"I swear in the name of Ancestor Nangong, what I just said is exactly what this kid said!" Nangong Lei said word by word.
Everyone in the room looked towards Yang Li. The person opposite Nangong Lei said eagerly, "Young man, I am the Great Elder of the Nangong Family, Nangong You. May I know where the person you know is now? Can you invite him over? If you can, as long as it doesn't violate the rules of the Nangong Family, we will do our best to repay you! "
Nangong Lei also spoke up, "Brat, now that you've arrived at my Nangong Family and met our Patriarch, it's time for you to fulfill your promise and tell us who the person with the Conflagrated Knowledge Sea is, right?"
Nangong Feng did not say a word, his eyes were extremely calm. Nangong Lei said that he had gone to meet Nangong Yanran, but he knew what Nangong Lei was thinking. However, he did not say it out loud. After all, Nangong Lei was indeed wholeheartedly devoted to the family, and he himself had long since decided to end his life.
With such determination, he naturally wouldn't be moved by Yang Li's words that he knew where the person with the Conflagrated Knowledge Sea was, unless that person actually appeared in front of him. However, he still had a little hope in his heart, so he turned to Yang Li and said gently, "Great Elder's promise is the only thing I can promise you. If little friend knows where he is, please tell me."
Hearing Nangong Feng's words, Yang Li raised his eyes and looked at Nangong Lei, saying calmly, "I said I know, I know, and he is right in front of you!"
As soon as Yang Li finished speaking, he released the Conflagrated Knowledge Sea from his mind and directly attacked Nangong Lei. Of course, he did not really intend to attack Nangong Lei, he knew that he could not hurt Nangong Lei at all, he was just venting his anger.
That mysterious fluctuation and the faint burning illusory flame in the Divine Sense were clearly seen by the other people's Divine Senses.
The room became noisy, even Nangong Feng's originally calm eyes suddenly burst with a fierce light. He stared at Yang Li, his body trembling slightly, and even his voice trembled as he said, "So little friend is the person with the Conflagrated Knowledge Sea."
Nangong Lei was also stunned, he never thought that Yang Li would be the person with the Conflagrated Knowledge Sea. At this moment, when Yang Li attacked him, he did not dare to retaliate, so he could only suffer silently. Fortunately, Yang Li's Divine Sense was not strong, so he did not cause much damage to him.
Nangong You even stood up excitedly and said, "Little friend, if you have any requests, just tell us. As long as it doesn't violate the teachings of our Nangong family, we will go through fire and water to complete it for you! "
The others also voiced out their agreement, unable to suppress their excitement. Nangong Yanran and Nangong Qi also stared at Yang Li in shock.
Yang Li calmly looked at the people in the room and said in a flat voice, "But I don't want to help you all that much right now."
As soon as this sentence came out, the people in the room immediately went silent. The light of hope in Nangong Feng's eyes also gradually dissipated, and he asked bitterly, "Little friend, why do you say that?"
"Why do you say that? Ask Nangong Lei! "Yang Li chuckled and said.
"Second Brother, explain!" Nangong You turned to Nangong Lei and said.
At this moment, Nangong Lei was also extremely confused. How did this have anything to do with him? Just as he was about to speak, Yang Li said, "Tell me your plan and what happened after you met me. There is still a possibility of negotiation."
After speaking, Yang Li closed his eyes. Those who threatened him never had a good ending. Nangong Lei dared to threaten him, and even dared to lie about him. Naturally, he had no reason to let him go. At the same time, he was also looking forward to the Nangong family's choice.
When Nangong Lei heard his words, he felt as if he had been hit with a stick. A bitter smile gradually appeared on his face. After remaining silent for a long time, Nangong Lei finally opened his mouth and recounted what had happened from beginning to end.
Suddenly, only the sound of breathing could be heard in the room. When Nangong Lei finished telling everything that had happened, he closed his eyes tightly. He knew that once this matter was revealed, he would not have a good ending. However, he had no choice but to save Nangong Feng!
Without him, Nangong Lei, the Nangong family would at most have a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator. However, without Nangong Feng, the family would lack a soul that could lead the family to a stronger realm. It was unknown when they would be able to find one again.
Nangong Feng already knew the answer in his heart. Naturally, he did not say anything. Nangong You looked at Nangong Lei with a surprised expression. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and heartache.
The other elders also sighed silently in their hearts. They did not know what to say. If Yang Li did not appear, then it would be fine if Nangong Lei did it. However, Yang Li appeared and even made Nangong Lei explain everything that had happened. Then, Nangong Lei would be condemned by everyone in the family.
The strange and quiet atmosphere did not last long before it was broken by Nangong You's voice. Nangong You turned her gaze towards Yang Li and said, "Little friend, how do you want to deal with this matter?"
When Yang Li heard this, he smiled faintly and said, "According to the rules of your ancestors, how do you want to deal with someone who kills someone from the same family?"
When Nangong You heard this, her body trembled. She slowly closed her eyes. Her face was filled with exhaustion. She slowly said, "According to the rules of the family, those who kill someone from the same family will be beheaded!"
"There is no need for you to behead me! I will just kill myself! " Nangong Lei suddenly blurted out this sentence, and even the spiritual energy fluctuations around his body began to circulate.
"Wait!"
When Yang Li saw this, he hurriedly stopped him. He still wanted to form an alliance with the Nangong Family. If he really forced Nangong Lei to commit suicide, then there would definitely be other voices in the Nangong Family in the future. They might even change sides at a critical moment. He did not want to fall into such an awkward situation.
Nangong You and the others were originally prepared for Nangong Lei to commit suicide. They silently sighed in their hearts. When they heard Yang Li's words, their hearts trembled. They opened their eyes and looked toward Yang Li. Their gazes were filled with hope and doubt. Nangong Lei, who was prepared to commit suicide, also looked at Yang Li. After all, he did not want to die.
When he saw that Nangong Lei had stopped, Yang Li heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Second Elder, you don't have to do this. I just wanted to vent my anger. After all, Elder Nangong did not kill anyone from the same family."
"I can save the Lord of the Nangong Family, and I can also save Yanran. At the same time, I only have one request. As long as the Lord of the Nangong Family and the elders agree, I will definitely treat the Lord of the Nangong Family and Yanran within seven days." Yang Li changed the topic.
When he heard that Yang Li did not want to kill Nangong Lei, Nangong You was overjoyed and said, "My friend, what request do you have? Feel free to state it!"
Nan Gong Feng and the other elders also looked at Yang Li with kindness in their eyes. Their eyes were filled with praise as they said, "Little friend, you have repaid evil with kindness. Your magnanimity is something we cannot compare to."
"You are so chivalrous at such a young age, and your cultivation level is so high. In the future, the Southern Fire Region will have another respected expert."
"That is true. My friend, feel free to state your request. The Nangong Family will do our best to fulfill it."
Yang Li calmly accepted everyone's compliments and said, "My request is very simple. The Nangong Family will form an alliance with the Tenlan Sect and the other three sects!"
Originally, they thought that with Yang Li's cultivation level, he would at most ask for some cultivation resources or ask them to help him get rid of a powerful enemy. Therefore, they were more relaxed and relaxed.
However, when Yang Li spoke, everyone was stunned. Even Nangong Feng's solemn gaze trembled. The room fell into silence once again.
After a while, Nangong Feng opened his mouth. For such a big matter, it was most appropriate for him to speak.
"My friend, your request is not bad. However, this matter goes against the teachings of the Nangong Family."
Nangong Feng didn't say anything else. His words made it clear what he meant.
Yang Li didn't mind and smiled, "Leader of the Nangong Family, I don't know much about other things, but I'm sure you are well aware of the situation in the Southern Fire Region. The Dongfang Family has already joined the two sects. You should know this as well."
"Brat, to put it bluntly, if the four sects are destroyed and the Feng Clan is destroyed, will the Nangong Clan, the only major force in the entire Southern Fire Region, be able to protect their ancestors' thousand-year foundation?"
Nangong Feng and the others fell silent. Because what Yang Li said was the truth. The Nangong Family would not be able to protect themselves.
Yang Li didn't force them too much and smiled, "I am not forcing the Nangong Family. Leader of the Nangong Family, you can discuss this with the elders."
"For such a big matter, we really need to discuss it. My friend, you can stay with the Nangong Family for a few days. Once we have a decision, we will inform you immediately." Nangong Feng suppressed the excitement and desire in his heart and said calmly.
After all, this matter concerns the millennium-old foundation of the Nangong Family. He had to choose carefully. One wrong step could lead to a lifetime of regret.
"Thank you, Leader of the Nangong Family." Yang Li stood up and cupped his fists together.
"Yanran, take him to a quiet place to stay." Nangong Feng nodded and said to Nangong Yanran.
"Yes, father." Nangong Yanran had experienced a lot of ups and downs, but her expression was calm. She turned around and left with Yang Li.
Nangong Qi naturally wasn't qualified to participate in the family's affairs, so he left with them.
Seeing that Yang Li had left, the Great Elder activated his spiritual energy and a boundary was formed in the room. His Half-Law Realm cultivation could be seen at a glance. Powerful waves enveloped the entire room, and no one from the outside could hear what they were saying.
Yang Li was led by Nangong Yanran to his residence. The discussion in the Nangong Family's hall was heard by Ling'Er. She couldn't help but ask Yang Li, "Yang Li, will you not detoxify them if they don't want to form an alliance?"
Yang Li smiled and said, "I won't. Even if they don't want to form an alliance, I will still help them detoxify the poison. At the very least, I will leave a good impression on them."
"But if the Nangong Family isn't stupid and can see the current situation clearly, then they will definitely choose to form an alliance. This is a great help to us, but isn't it a good opportunity for them to soar?" Yang Li's words were full of confidence.
He still had two cards in his hand. If he played them, there was a 90% chance that the Nangong Family would form an alliance with them.
