This was extremely important. There were many times and many places in the human world that were unsuitable for him to transform into a daemon. The stronger he was as a human, the more opportunities he could obtain justifiably.
However, if he wanted to continue his cultivation, he needed to find a new cultivation method. He felt like as long as he had a Qi Practitioner method, he could immediately break through to the fourth layer and open his Yang Linking meridian.
It was just a pity that he had not obtained any of the five great methods of practising qi. He could only stop here for now and wait for the future.
… …
Within the Proud Sword hall, two rows of disciples stood to the left and right. They all stared straight ahead, their eyes filled with a hint of eagerness.
The weather was extremely cold, but Yu Shukuang's forehead was covered in a layer of sweat. He leaned forward and said carefully, "Brother Liu, there really aren't any decent disciples in our Proud Sword manor that can catch your eye."
The person who sat before Yu Shukuang was Liu Fengrui, who had visited a few days ago Just now. He waved his hand arrogantly, and Yu Shukuang dismissed everyone.
Liu Fengrui smiled. "That's not why I've come this time. Brother Yu, it's time for you to celebrate."
"What's there to celebrate in my empty home?"
Liu Fengrui said, "I've heard about what happened a few days ago. The Pheasant's Grace mountain abused their power to bully others, wanting to steal brother Yu's property. Fortunately, brother Yu had the assistance of a master, but that's not a long-term plan. As a result, I specially pleaded with my master to allow the Proud Sword manor to join the Green Vine mountain's protection. From now on, anyone who provokes the Proud Sword manor will be provoking the dignity of our Green Vine mountain."
Yu Shukuang was surprised. He had wished for this a long time ago. He wanted to place the Proud Sword manor under the protection of a certain mountain. Although he would have an additional master above him, it was still better than the days when any Qi Practitioner could kick his ass. However, now that he had met Li Qingshan, and Yu Zijian was about to have a promising future, he was not particularly happy.
However, he reacted quickly. He stood up and bowed. "Thank you for your kind words, brother Liu!"
Liu Fengrui was very satisfied with Yu Shukuang's behaviour. The Pheasant's Grace mountain had actually extended their influence into the territory of the Green Vine mountain, so the Green Vine mountain obviously had to respond. He pursed his lips. "That's only one of them. Brother Yu will probably be even happier when you hear about the next one. "
"May I ask what it is?"
"I heard your daughter has already reached the innate realm, so master has specially extended his grace and is willing to accept her into the Green Vine mountain. I'll be taking her back to the mountain this time." Liu Fengrui was complacent inside. This was killing two birds with one stone. He was the one who came up with this. Not only could he consolidate the Green Vine's influence in the mortal world, but he could also recruit a disciple for the Green Vine mountain. When Yu Shukuang heard that, he was probably so happy that he wanted to kneel down to him.
Yu Shukuang said, "This … My son has already promised a good friend of the Hua family that he'll be attending the Hundred Schools of Thought next year …"
Without waiting for him to finish. Liu Fengrui's face sank. He had never thought that not only would Yu Shukuang thank him, but he would also turn him down. "Oh? Are you saying our Green Vine mountain can't rival the Hundred Schools of Thought? Or do you want to use the Hua family to scare me? "
"How dare you!"
"Then why don't you let your daughter come out to see me?"
Yu Shukuang could only order someone to summon Yu Zijian over. Yu Zijian immediately shook her head when she heard that. "No, I've already agreed to Chenglu!"
Liu Fengrui saw Yu Zijian. His eyes lit up slightly, but his face remained sunken. "My master never speaks so easily. However, there's no way he can take back what he's said. You better consider it properly! "
"I said I'm not willing, so I'm not willing!" Yu Zijian said in annoyance. Ever since she saw Liu Fengrui the first time, she had disliked his pretentiousness and his sarcasm.
Liu Fengrui's eyes turned cold. A mere first layer Qi Practitioner actually dared to defy him in public. He was looking to die.
Yu Shukuang smiled apologetically at Liu Fengrui. "Please wait a moment." As he pulled Yu Zijian towards the back, he needed Li Qingshan to make the decision.
Liu Fengrui seemed to see through their thoughts. He still felt like his threat was not powerful enough, so he added, "The Pheasant's Grace mountain has already gathered people to deal with that Niu Juxia or whatever behind you, but we still stopped them. Just because an independent cultivator who came out of nowhere defeated a disciple of the Pheasant's Grace mountain, does he think he can contend with the entire sect? "
Yu Shukuang's heart skipped a beat. He pulled Yu Zijian to the back and immediately ordered people to search for Li Qingshan in the manor. Yu Zijian also looked forward to the tremendous figure descending from above, grabbing the person surnamed Liu outside, and tossing him outside as well. However, the news they received in the end was that Li Qingshan had already vanished.
Yu Shukuang immediately sat down in the armed chair and sighed. "What am I supposed to do?"
Yu Zijian experienced the sorrow of powerlessness once again. She gripped the hilt of her sword firmly. "Father, I'll agree to him!"
Yu Shukuang said, "How can you do that?" At the very least, Yu Zijian would have Hua Chenglu to take care of her in the Hundred Schools of Thought. The Hundred Schools of Thought was a place of rules. Looking at how Liu Fengrui behaved, there probably was not a lot of love between fellow disciples on the Green Vine mountain.
Yu Zijian instead comforted Yu Shukuang. "Don't worry. The Green Vine mountain is not necessarily worse than the Hundred Schools of Thought." Suddenly, she suppressed her voice. "This is just a temporary solution. I'll write a letter to Chenglu. Perhaps she can help me."
Yu Shukuang could not help but sigh. His daughter had truly grown up. He said helplessly, "That's all we can do then!"
In the hall, Liu Fengrui smiled complacently. As long as what was done could not be undone, it would not be that easy for the Hua family to interfere with the matters of the sect. If the little girl obeyed obediently, then so be it. Otherwise, she would probably suffer a lot!
… …
"The king has sent me to patrol the mountain!" Li Qingshan's resonant voice echoed through the silent cavern.
"The king has sent me to patrol the mountain!" Little Ann sat on Li Qingshan's neck and sang along with him.
"Patrol the southern mountain, patrol the northern mountain!" Li Qingshan turned his head and sang at the top of his lungs.
"Patrol the southern mountain, patrol the northern mountain!" Little Ann also turned his head and sang at the top of his lungs.
"You're wrong, you're wrong!" Li Qingshan suddenly shook his head. He shook his head so much that Little Ann began to move with him.
"What's wrong?" Little Ann tightened her grip around his neck and grabbed Li Qingshan's ear to maintain her balance.
Li Qingshan said, "It should be the cave patrol."
Little Ann thought about it. "Fair enough!"
Li Qingshan had already been underground for half a month. He did not recklessly make Milliped fight the Daemon General. Instead, he carefully familiarized himself with the situation underground.
He discovered that Milliped's territory was not just being invaded by the Daemon General. It was being invaded by all the nearby Daemon Generals. Everyone else had a bunch of subordinates following their orders, but he was alone. Furthermore, he was not very smart. If he wasn't bullied, it would be unforgivable.
Li Qingshan also gained a deeper understanding of the importance of territory. The underground world was basically a great treasure trove. Here, he could find spiritual veins and holy lands that were ten times better than the Zombie Daoist's dwelling, spiritual springs that could rapidly recover true qi by drinking them, and various strange spiritual herbs. These lands of treasure were scattered across the criss-crossing caverns. Losing a portion of territory was losing a portion of resources.
And the most important resources were all sorts of daemons. Theoretically, all the daemons in Milliped's territory had to listen to his commands. In exchange, Milliped would not eat them.
However, Milliped lacked the skill and wisdom to lead. Even when he gave orders, the daemons would only obey him on the surface. They would never show their support. As the saying went, in order to resist foreign aggression, one must first pacify the interior. Right now, Li Qingshan was going to visit these daemons one by one.
