Chapter 173: The War Begins Again
Chapter 173 – The War Begins Again
“Pear Blossom pays her respects to Master!”
Walking into the middle of the Southern Spirit Peak’s great hall, Jiang Ruoli directly knelt down, her eyes filled with tears, excited to the extreme.
Erniu’s eyes were also moist, since he followed Pear Blossom into the Jiang Clan, his days were better for a while, but then after Jiang Ribai’s downfall and Pear Blossom’s dantian shattered, he naturally fell into a state of disrepair, and was subjected to much bullying and humiliation and coldness.
“Get up–“
Li An helped the two of them up, and there was also a hint of emotion in his eyes.
During this period of time, he had already heard about Pear Blossom.
Ever since her marriage to Jiang Ruoxu, she had been pretending to be crazy and had been secluded, and it was not until now that she had seen the light of day again.
“From now on, you will be on this Southern Spirit Peak, and no one will dare to bully you anymore.”
Li An opened his mouth to comfort, “The matter of your dantian, I will look for spiritual medicine to repair it for you, and I will definitely be able to lay the path for you again.”
In reality, it wasn’t difficult for Li An to cure her if he really wanted to.
After all, the Fate Seed could repair the dantian, and that green breath in the Fate Seed should be able to cure Li Hua.
But Li An didn’t intend to actually heal her – at least not right now.
The only reason Li An offered to cultivate Pear Blossom was just to make Jiang trust him.
After all, if he showed that he had a deep master-disciple bond with Pear Blossom and cared about Pear Blossom’s future, then the Jiang Clan would be less wary of him, which would be beneficial to him.
He would indeed send someone to look for the elixir to repair the dantian, it was fine if he found it, it was fine if he couldn’t find it.
Relying on spirit medicine alone, the possibility of Pear Blossom’s dantian recovering was slim to none.
“As long as I can follow Master, it doesn’t matter if the dantian is restored or not.”
Pear Blossom, however, smiled with tears in her eyes, “Master, you’ve been so kind to Pear Blossom!”
Erniu also said, “Master’s favor, I will never forget it in this life!”
Li An nodded, “You guys go and familiarize yourselves with the situation first, I have already asked people to prepare a cave for you to cultivate, a mansion for you to live in, in addition, there are also several volumes of gongfa, if you have any problems, come and find me at any time.”
The two nodded and then left.
Walking out of the great hall.
“Miss Ruo Li …….”
Erniu subconsciously opened his mouth, but Lihua had already said, “Erniu, just call me Lihua.”
Her expression was calm, “Jiang Ruo Li has died from today, I am Pear Flower from Tianning Village.”
Erniu was stunned for a moment and said, “Good, Sister Pear Blossom, I have heard people say that the master became the Jiang Clan’s protector elder, with twists and turns in the middle of the journey, when …… it was as if it was a legend, and now it is still the master of the divine bird.”
“Also don’t know how exactly his old man did it …… Master is also a person with secrets, Jiang Clan has rumors that he mostly got the Jiang Clan Royal Beast Art ……”
Lihua said, “Erniu, you remember,”
She looked solemn, “In the Jiang family, the only one we can always trust is Master, no matter what kind of person he is!”
“His old man, saved me twice!”
She remembered again that many years ago, before she followed the army out to Da Li, Li An told her in detail about some of the formations near the Ten Thousand Abyss ……
If it wasn’t for those formations, she might have died long ago.
Now, she had broken away from that silty marriage and was saved a second time by Li An.
Erniu nodded, her fists clenched, “I will definitely try my best to cultivate and not disgrace my master!”
……
After Lihua Erniu left.
Li An went to Knowledge Peak.
Learning that the Protector Elder was coming in person, the many guest ministers of Zhiqi Peak all greeted him.
“Greetings, greetings to the Protector Elder ……”
Chen Lin, the head of the Xuanwu Hall, was terrified and sweating profusely.
He never expected that Li An would actually be able to come this far ……
become a True Dan Great Cultivator, and was even named a Jiang Clan External Elder.
Once when Li An was down and out, he had at one point insulted Li An to the extreme, and now the two were worlds apart.
Li An glanced at him blandly and raised his hand!
Spiritual energy took shape and directly slapped Chen Lin away.
Chen Lin smashed heavily dozens of paces away, his chest was a bloody mess, and his dantian was shattered.
The faces of the crowd changed drastically.
“Chen Lin has a friendship with Tan Xue, he should be in his party, strike today, abolish his cultivation and expel him from the Jiang Clan.”
Li An just blandly said.
Everyone was silent.
If a True Dan cultivator made a move, who would dare to comment on a group of small foundation builders?
Chen Lin’s face was mournful, but he didn’t dare to say a word, trembling all over, he was racked by a few Jiang Clan children and thrown out of the Jiang Clan.
“Your name is Wang Ying? From today onwards, you are the upper secretary of the Xuanwu Hall.”
Li An directly called a middle-aged man out from the crowd, that middle-aged man was an alchemist, at this moment, he heard the words and was flattered.
This Wang Ying used to be considered respectful in front of Li An.
“Before Chen Lin goes far, go and kill him, and throw his head back to South Spirit Peak to feed the spirit beasts.”
Li An instructed in a secret language, and Wang Ying nodded repeatedly.
Since he had already struck out, Li An absolutely did not leave any loose ends, he should kill them all, in fact, he even used poison power in the square slap, Chen Lin would become a corpse when he stepped out of the Jiang family.
He just gave Wang Ying a chance to perform, cut off Chen Lin’s head as a surrender, convenient for him to accept Wang Ying as his beloved.
Next to her, Zhang Meng flopped to her knees, trembling and fearful, “Lord Protector, spare your life, spare your life ……”
She had followed Feng Yuancheng in targeting Li An, and later became Chen Lin’s beloved.
“Spare your life? Looks like you are not fighting and secretly communicating with Tan Xue ……”
Li An pointed out with a finger.
Zhang Meng was killed on the spot!
Everyone at Knowledge Peak was chilled, while more people were glad.
……
After doing this, Li An turned around and went to the Sun Mansion.
Sun Jinxue did not go to meet him, but when he entered the residence, he saw Sun Jinxue dressed up in a very beautiful and dignified manner, as if she was meeting an extremely important person.
“Protector Wu,”
She spoke softly, “Jinxue has already submitted her resignation to the family, so she didn’t go to pay her respects, please forgive me, Protector.”
Although she was saying this, a hint of adoration and love in her eyes couldn’t help but show.
Her attitude towards Li An has always been complicated, once because Li An was a superior, dedicated to Li An, and then when Li An was reduced to a “farmer” and fell into despair, she only felt a little sorry for him, and never spoke ill of him.
Waiting for Li An to become the first secretary, the calm posture of not humble, so that she was deeply impressed.
Later, when she realized that Li An was going to die, she inexplicably became desperate and prepared to leave the Jiang family.
And why did she ever think that Li An could actually turn the tables and go to such a point ……
She is Mu Qiang’s.
Witnessed Li An’s rise step by step, this admiration is deepened by many times.
“It’s good to leave Knowledge Peak,”
Li An opened his mouth, but she was gently stunned.
“My Southern Spirit Peak needs people, follow me.”
Li An opened his mouth, “All the properties of Southern Spirit Peak, from now on, you will be in charge.”
As a Protector Elder, he could easily develop many industries as a way to support his own cultivation, but he also needed a reliable person.
Moreover, by doing this, Li An was also deliberately doing it to show the Jiang family that this was the most important thing.
When the Jiang family saw him developing his own power in the Jiang Clan and cultivating his inner circle, they would feel even more that he had made up his mind to take root in the Jiang Clan. In reality? Li An didn’t care about these things at all, the only thing that the Jiang Clan could make Li feel at ease was the Third Order Spiritual Vein, that would allow him to absorb the Tai Yin Qi.
When the Jiang family was paralyzed and there was the right time, Li An turned around and left.
Sun Jinxue heard the words, a pair of beautiful eyes, but could not help but crystalize a piece, she smiled faintly, “Good, Jinxue follow the order of the Protector Incorporated.”
……
In just a month or two, Li An had already possessed his own basic disk in Jiang’s.
Under the South Spirit Peak, the properties that once belonged to Jiang Ribai, including several stores and halls in Qingzhou for pills, talismans, and smithing, etc., were all owned by Li An.
The monthly input of spirit stones is around 70,000 to 80,000 lower grade spirit stones, which can support Li An’s daily consumption and still have a small surplus.
After Sun Jinxue became the Grand Master of South Spirit Peak, she was even more energetic and plowed the industry for Li An. It wouldn’t be long before the people on the industry should be completely replaced by all of her beloved ones.
……
Li An cultivated with peace of mind.
“Sure enough, the spiritual veins naturally contain the Tai Yin Qi ……”
In the place of seclusion, Li An felt the changes within his body and couldn’t help but murmur.
He had already made many third-order formations to protect his surroundings, and then buried a third-order “Spirit Gathering Formation”.
It looked like a Spirit Gathering Formation, but in fact, it had a Magic Formation as its core, which drew in the Tai Yin Qi from the earth veins for him, and he introduced it into his body through his Magic Skills.
Wisps of Tai Yin Qi filled his dantian, making Li An’s soul and consciousness feel extremely comfortable.
It was really good that the firstborn was born in yin.
“The devil’s power is really overbearing, if it is through the collection of elixirs and so on, the Tai Yin Qi absorbed in this month, I’m afraid that it will take at least five or six years to reach ……”
Li An gradually understood why the Shangguan Xiaoxiao sisters, were both so attracted to the Heavenly Demon Technique.
This kind of gong method was tantamount to opening up for cultivators!
“If you want to forge a Purple Mansion, you should have five or six Third Order Spiritual Veins, or one Fourth Order Spiritual Vein of Tai Yin Qi should be enough ……”
“But, the stronger the Purple Mansion is, the easier it will be to give birth to a newborn baby, so if the conditions allow it, it might as well absorb a few more spirit veins ……”
Li An made plans.
In fact, Jiang’s base was completely enough for him to achieve the Purple Mansion.
There was a fourth-order spirit vein, as well as five third-order spirit veins derived from it, if all of them were absorbed, his great plan for the Purple Mansion could be accomplished.
However, this was only an extravagant hope, once the Tai Yin Qi was absorbed, one of the spirit veins would also be directly wasted, when that time came, wouldn’t the Jiang Clan fight him to the death?
However, there is no problem at the moment, let’s absorb it for a while first.
While he was cultivating, Xiao Qing was also standing on his shoulder, her eyes closed as if she was resting.
In reality, the divine bird, on the other hand, was absorbing the green aura within his body.
The product produced by Li An’s cultivation of the Life Nurturing Immortal Casting Skill was just right for feeding the spirit bird.
……
In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
In five years, Li An’s Jindan cultivation was completely consolidated.
During these five years, outside of his cultivation, what he showed the most dedication to was treating Li Hua’s illness, and he had invited many True Dan physicians before and after to diagnose and treat Li Hua, so he could be said to be doing his best.
At the same time, he also taught Erniu, often educating Erniu, so that he could assist Pear Blossom in the future.
The industry side of the development of good, Li An showed some domineering, in addition to their own industry, but also grabbed some other vulnerable elders share.
Through these efforts of his, Jiang became more and more at ease with him.
Any way you look at it, Li An was rooted in the Jiang Clan.
On this day.
“Today, we have summoned all the elders because there is a major event that we need to discuss with you all,”
In the middle of the Jiang Clan’s great hall, the family head Jiang Rilan called Li An, Jiang Sunrise, Jiang Ridong, Jiang Rihua, and several other True Dan elders, all of whom were here.
Li An’s position was before all the elders, the many True Dan elders were resentful at first, but there was no way around it, they were used to it now.
Especially Jiang Rihua, back then she was the one who brought Li An and Pear Blossom and the others back from the border of Da Li, at that time, Li An was nothing more than a thing in her palm, casually holding it.
Nowadays, he has actually become a generation of real people, controlling divine birds.
Let her heart mixed feelings.
“After several years of investigation and exploration, we have decided to send out troops to take down the northern border of Da Li a year from now!”
Jiang Rilan spoke.
The crowd was flabbergasted.
“What’s inside the Ten Thousand Abyss is extremely important to my Jiang Clan, if I can obtain it, perhaps from now on, all of Yan will be honored by my clan-“
Jiang Rilan spoke solemnly.
……
After a long time.
The meeting dispersed.
Liam was preoccupied.
The Ten Thousand Abyss was too important to Jiang, it was rumored that it might be the place where a certain Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator had died, and once he obtained it, Jiang might jump up.
This kind of chance was a fatal temptation to any YuanYing Clan.
When Jiang Ribai lost the battle, but it couldn’t change the Jiang Clan’s interest claims or family will.
This meeting mainly set up the time and plan for the battle, Li An because of the more familiar with the northern border of Da Li, so “advice” a lot.
“Jiang is going to be finished ……”
This time, the Jiang Clan will utilize the heritage and strength, far better than when Jiang Ribai, a few can be said to come out of the nest.
Jiang’s choice of time and the year Jiang Ribai is similar, the Great Lai Dynasty has annexed the State of Chen, is toward another country – Zhao attack.
There was no time to look north.
In fact, over the years, the Da Li Dynasty could be said to have developed rapidly, and was already an existence that could stand shoulder to shoulder with Yan in the Xiling Yuan Continent, and under the expansion of the Da Li Dynasty, the two countries would surely end up having a battle.
Therefore, Jiang’s strategy was also the will of the entire Yan Kingdom.
But in front of Shangguan Shengxian ……
Yan Kingdom, it’s nothing.
Gotta find a chance to slip away ……
Otherwise, there was a risk of self-exposure once they fought with the Da Li Dynasty.
“Lord Protector, something big has happened ……”
Just returned to the Southern Spirit Peak, Sun Jinxue has already reported, “A batch of our goods was intercepted, losing more than a hundred thousand spirit stones and killing and injuring dozens of cultivators, according to the clues …… it might have been Jiang Ribai who did it!”
Li An was stunned at the words, then immediately reported to the family.
Jiang Ribai’s appearance caused the Jiang family to pay attention.
After all, Jiang Ribai was wanted and hunted down after his downfall, which was tantamount to being as close to the Jiang family as water and fire, and he knew the Jiang family too well to be a great danger to his heart.
Jiang Rilan said, “Over the years, I have also been tracking down, and actually have a brow …… If I’m not wrong, this person should have fled to the ‘Heavenly Fury Mountain Range’ a stay… …”
Heavenly Fury Mountain Range!
Li An was slightly aghast, this location …… he had studied many times!
The Heavenly Fury Mountain Range, which was quite famous in the entire Xiling Yuan Continent, had a disturbed aura and a shocking fury, and it was said to border the land of the ancient Demon Clan, so no power or clan dared to be over there.
On the contrary, many destitute cultivators, hunted big breakers, etc., would go over there to land, so over time, it was known as a place outside the law.
Many sect forces were beyond the reach of the whip.
The Yan Kingdom and the Da Li Dynasty were all in the western part of the Xiling Yuan Continent, while the Heavenly Fury Mountain Range was in the northern part of the Xiling Yuan Continent, about 100,000 miles away from this place.
“My clan will soon be preparing for a great war, and at this time, if Jiang Ri Bai comes to attack, it’s a trouble ……”
Jiang Rilan frowned.
“How about, how about I make a trip?”
Li An took the initiative to open his mouth, “Jiang Ri Bai robbed my goods, he doesn’t share the same fate as me, I will execute him!”
……
Good night!
