< Today's first update! Asking for monthly votes! Haha … >
All of the above was caused by the sudden appearance of an inexplicable piece of news.
That inexplicable piece of news …
It turned out that the Northern City Clan had been wiped out by the mysterious organization during the recent riots in Tian Xiang City. The Tang family of the Tian Xiang Aristocratic Family had launched a large-scale search. The reason why the Tang family had lowered their status was because they had lost an extremely important item!
The Xuan Dan of a peak Level Nine Xuan Beast!
This piece of news, which had yet to be finalized, started from a small rumor and spread rapidly. It was as if it had grown wings and was like a hurricane, spreading throughout the entire continent in an extremely short period of time.
"This is an opportunity! An opportunity to recapture the Xuan Dan! "
In the Grand Preceptor's Mansion, Li Youran was standing in front of Li Shang's sickbed. Her face was covered with a light green veil as she spoke resolutely.
"Oh? In the past, we went through a lot of trouble, but we were still the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. In the end, we got nothing. How can we say that this is an opportunity? Grand Preceptor Li Shang's complexion had improved a lot. Although he was still very weak, he was no longer in a precarious state like he had claimed to be. In fact, he could even speak normally. At this moment, there was a look of understanding in his eyes as he looked at his grandson. He wanted his grandson to say it out loud.
Ever since he had failed to restore his Dantian, his old life had been saved. However, his body's condition had deteriorated day by day. Grand Preceptor Li Shang was somewhat disheartened. He was well aware of his body's condition, and was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer. Therefore, he had been trying his best to cultivate his eldest grandson, Li Youran. No matter what problem he encountered, he would first ask for Li Youran's opinion before pointing out any shortcomings.
Li Youran didn't disappoint him. During this period of time, her temperament and shrewdness had improved by leaps and bounds. Her understanding of certain matters had become very sharp. Even Grand Preceptor Li had to sigh at her inferiority. This was because Li Shang's heart was cold, but at the same time, he was comforted. After all, he finally had a successor!
"The current situation is very clear. The Tang family's Xuan Dan had been stolen. In this world, there were probably only three groups of people who knew about it. Of course, Old Master Tang wouldn't be so stupid as to leak this information and bring trouble to his family. We couldn't leak this information either. The Xuan Dan was too important, and the more people who knew about it, the more competitors there would be. Our goal is to seize the Xuan Dan before anyone else finds out! Since it wasn't either of us who leaked the secret, the only person who could have leaked it would be the person who obtained the Xuan Dan. "
"In other words, as long as we find this person, we will be able to retrieve the complete Xuan Dan!"
"On that day, he was the oriole, while we made a wedding dress for him, allowing that person to obtain the Xuan Core and gain a huge advantage. That person should have disappeared without a trace, so it's not surprising that there hasn't been any movement for such a long time, and it's only reasonable. But now, he suddenly leaked this information and exposed the existence of the ninth grade Xuan Dan. This is puzzling. He didn't leave any traces that day, but today, he made such an unwise move. He must have his own intentions! "
"As for his intentions … I'm stupid. I can only deduce a few things. First, although he has obtained the Xuan Dan, he doesn't know how to use it. He doesn't even understand the true function of the Xuan Dan. He has obtained it, but he doesn't use it! Therefore, he needs to attract strong people to come here and fish in troubled waters to inquire about the function of the Xuan Dan. This is the first reason. Tang Wan Li has studied the method of absorbing the ninth grade Xuan Dan for decades. He has also inquired about it for decades, but he still hasn't fully understood it. Even we, if not for my master's guidance, I'm afraid we wouldn't know about it. "
"Go on." Li Shang showed a look of appreciation.
"Secondly, this person is most likely from the Tian Xiang City. Moreover, he must be a top-notch expert. In fact, he might have even reached the bottleneck of his Xuan Qi cultivation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have released the news at this time. After all, wouldn't it be better to wait patiently for the news to die down? Therefore, I believe that this person is on the verge of a breakthrough! "
"Yes! Is there a third reason? "Li Shang's eyes were full of admiration.
"Third, this person must have the confidence to get what he needs before the strong people arrive. If so, this person must have a very powerful intelligence network! From this point of inference, I'm more than eighty percent sure that this person is from one of the most powerful families in the capital! Moreover, he has the qualifications to mobilize the power of his entire family. This is why he is so bold and confident! "Li Youran's voice was a little cautious.
"Hmm, that's a good analysis. This way, we can narrow down the target to a small area. "Li Shang clapped his hands. He was very pleased in his heart. "Who are you suspecting now?"
"Our Li Family can be ruled out first. The Tang family can also be ruled out. The rest are the Jun Family, the Mu Rong Family, the Du Gu Family, the Meng Family, and the Song Family. These five families are all possible!"
Li Youran bent her fingers one by one. "However, the Jun Family is our old enemy. But, considering Jun Zhan Tian's integrity, I don't think he would do such a thing. Jun Wuyi may be physically disabled, but his heart is not. But, he is still disabled, so it's difficult for him to move around. As for Jun Moxie, he's still a debauchee. I'm afraid that he doesn't have the qualifications to mobilize the power of his family. Therefore, the Jun Family is the least suspicious at the moment. But, we can't completely rule them out. Anything is possible! "
"The possibility of the Du Gu Family is not very high. Although they are powerful and have the ability to be the 'oriole'! But fundamentally speaking, the Du Gu Family lacks ambition. Otherwise, the Du Gu Family would have replaced the Jun Family a long time ago. The reason why His Majesty tolerates the Du Gu Family is because the Du Gu Family has talented warriors. But, unlike the Jun Family, which has talented generals! The Du Gu Family can charge and break through the enemy lines. But, if they want to be like Jun Wu Hui, Jun Wu Meng, Jun Wuyi, or Jun Zhan Tian, they can command the entire army. But, the Dugu Family definitely doesn't have such talents! "
"In other words, if the Dugu Family could produce such a person, I'm afraid that His Majesty would immediately suppress the entire family! After all, the Du Gu Family is not like the Jun Family, who have saved His Majesty's life many times. But, even if the Jun Family has done so much, and their descendants are too outstanding, didn't they still end up like this? How could the Dugu family be an exception? "
"So, although the Du Gu Family is big and has many descendants, they don't have the cohesiveness of the Jun Family. Although the Jun Family seems to be in decline, the four Marshals who have always been victorious are enough to shake the entire Kingdom! "
"So, although the Du Gu Family is slightly more suspicious than the Jun Family, they are still on the edge. To put it bluntly, I really don't see any of the Du Gu Family's schemes."
"The Meng Family, firstly, is our ally. Secondly, the Meng Family doesn't have any particularly outstanding people. So, their chances aren't great. For the time being, they can only be ranked third."
"Among the aristocratic families, the Song Family has always been the most low-key. But, a dog that bites never barks. So, the suspicion this time is really not small. It's only second to the Murong Family. The Murong Family has always had a deep foundation, ambition, and scheming. Moreover, they use their status as a relative of the Emperor to look down on the other aristocratic families. So, in this matter, we must pay special attention to the Murong Family! " Li Youran carefully analyzed. Her words were spoken very slowly, and it was obvious that she was thinking nervously.
"Hmm, not bad." Li Shang nodded: "But, apart from these families, there are a few other directions that you haven't mentioned yet."
"Please advise me, grandfather." Li Youran said.
"There is still one of the biggest aristocratic families in this city. You don't seem to have considered it?! The Royal Family! The Royal Family is the most powerful family! Although His Majesty is still hiding his strength, I'm afraid that His Majesty would've been assassinated many times over if he didn't have the protection of several top experts! You must pay special attention to this point. Also, there are three big gangs in Tian Xiang City. They also have considerable strength. So, you must pay attention to them. "
"In addition, we can't completely rule out the possibility of a mysterious expert hiding in Tian Xiang City. Also, there are several well-known assassin organizations that have been active in Tian Xiang City for some time. These are all possible targets. " Li Shang coughed a few times, and propped himself up with difficulty. Then, he opened his eyes wide: "This Xuan Dan incident is bound to cause an unprecedented storm! Youran, you must be cautious! Also, we don't have enough strength right now … If your master can come here personally, then we'll have a higher chance of success. If he can't come … then you should ask your senior brothers to come here as soon as possible! Otherwise, I advise you to withdraw from this competition! "
"It could be a disaster at any time!" Li Shang sighed and lay back on the bed.
"Yes. I have already sent out the Thousand Miles Oriole in the early morning. I believe that master has already received it. "Li Youran nodded heavily.
"Hmm, how is your Xuan Qi progress?" Li Shang asked with his eyes closed.
"I have already reached the peak of the Gold level." Li Youran's voice sounded a little guilty: "But, my realm is still a little unstable. Once it stabilizes, I will be able to attack Yu Xuan. But, this matter … "
Li Shang raised his hand and stopped her from speaking: "Don't say that this matter was unintentional. Even if I knew the consequences, I would still gladly help you. After all, you are the Li Family's biggest hope in the future. You don't have to worry about this matter too much. "
Li Youran sighed.
The last time he had used the Seabed Jade Coral to treat Li Shang's injuries, Li Shang had suffered serious injuries due to an inexplicable explosion. However, Li You Ran's face had been blasted open, and his pretty boy face had been completely ruined. However, fortune and misfortune were often accompanied by fortune. Li You Ran had gained a lot of benefits from this incident.
The spiritual energy in the Seabed Jade Coral had to be stimulated by Li Youran first before Li Shang could further absorb it. During the explosion, because of the sudden interruption, a considerable amount of spiritual energy had coincidentally stayed in Li Youran's meridians. It could be considered as a blessing in disguise. During this period of time, Li Youran did not go out because of the injury on his face. Under the help of that energy, he actually advanced from the initial stage of the Gold level to the peak of the Gold level! Just one step and he would be a Jade level Xuan. With Li Youran's age, although this speed of advancement was not unprecedented, it was enough to show disdain for the current generation!
