Chapter 583 Bottom Line

"Fellow Taoist, why don't you rest for a few more days before setting off?" Seeing that Li Zhirui was about to leave, Zhongshan immediately spoke to persuade him to stay.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have been away from home for many days. I feel uneasy and want to go back early."

Zhongshan wanted Li Zhirui to stay, just to have multiple combat forces who could help when he encountered danger. But he rushed out from Xuanfa Prefecture with his clansmen and just didn't want to get involved. How could he stay now?

Seeing that he couldn't keep him, Zhongshan had no choice but to send Li Zhirui and his party away in person.

"Uncle Jiu, why do you want to tell them about Xuan Fazhou?" Li Chenghao asked in confusion on the spirit boat.

"I just happened to be passing by, and I would like to remind you, lest they suffer heavy losses due to magic cultivation and cannot afford the deal with the family."

The two families have signed a contract!

If the Qianshan Sect cannot produce enough spiritual stones, then the third-level spiritual elixir refined by Li Zhirui will have to find a new buyer. And because the quantity is not sure, there is no way to sign contracts with other forces and can only be sold in pieces. .

This would not only be troublesome, but would also attract the attention of other forces.

Therefore, if something happens to the Qianshan Sect, unless it is directly destroyed or the vitality is severely damaged, it will not be a good thing for the Li family.

Now think about it, Wanxian Island is located in the far east corner of the backcountry. To a certain extent, it is also a good thing. At least it is far away from the major forces and provides a relatively stable external environment.

"Continue flying towards Ten Thousand Immortals Island."

Li Zhirui no longer needs to pay attention to the rest of the journey. He only needs to release the pressure of Nascent Soul to scare some monks.

Perhaps because of the sudden attack by the demonic cultivators, many forces did not escape. The Li family traveled eastward without encountering any danger and returned to their own territory calmly.

The various vassal forces that followed gradually decreased, until finally, there were only the three spiritual ships of the Li family.

"Finally back!" Li Chenghao breathed a sigh of relief the moment he set foot on Ten Thousand Immortals Island.

Outsiders had no idea how nervous and uneasy he felt along the way, for fear that some Nascent Soul monks would suddenly fly out in front of him and block his way.

"Thank you for your hard work, ancestor." Li Xuefeng and a group of elders hurried out to greet him.

Because Li Zhirui and others came back early, they had no time to prepare anything else.

"Everyone, please go back and have a rest." Li Chenghao said and drove away the onlookers.

"The family only took two kinds of dragon eggs this time, namely the thick-armored dragon turtle and the yellow jade dragon lizard. Some of the other spiritual objects were not photographed, and some other spiritual objects were also purchased."

Li Zhirui handed everything to Li Xuefeng and left it to him to handle. At the same time, he asked: "Has anything major happened to the family in the past month or so?"

"Yes!" Li Xuefeng's expression condensed and he said: "A few days ago, the Sea Clan sent a third-level water demon to visit us."

"Oh?" Li Zhirui raised his eyebrows slightly, "What did it say?"

"The Sea Clan hopes that the family will stop expanding to the outer sea, and at the same time limit the number of monks on Redwood Island, otherwise some violent measures will be taken."

These two requirements are for one thing, to curb the monks' exploration of the outer sea!

With the development of the Li family, it has become difficult to see the existence of water monsters in the surrounding sea areas, so the monks launched explorations into the distance, advancing little by little toward the outer sea.

The Li family knew about this from the beginning, and the Li family was even the mastermind behind it.

Because the resources in the boundless sea are obviously more abundant than those on land, and the Li family is the only force based on the sea with a radius of thousands of miles, and its foundation is on the sea. Of course, they must find ways to develop the boundless sea, especially in the far sea areas.

And this touches the bottom line of the Sea Clan!

If the coastal sea is a mixed area between humans and sea people, then the far sea can only belong to the sea people, and humans are absolutely not allowed to enter!

Therefore, after realizing that the Li family was about to make a move, the Hai Clan specially sent a third-level water demon to the door to warn them, which was considered as a courtesy before attacking.

If the Li family is stubborn, the Hai Clan will never show mercy.

You don't even need to break the contract between the human race and the sea race. You can sink Ten Thousand Immortals Island just by driving a large number of low-level water monsters!

After hearing this, Li Zhirui was silent for a moment and said: "In that case, let's stop exploring the distant sea and continue to develop the nearby sea areas."

With the strength of the Li family, they can't even afford to offend a slightly more powerful group in the Hai Clan, let alone the entire Hai Clan?

It really angered the Hai Clan. Even if the Li family was destroyed, the big forces of the human race would not help in revenge, and they would not even ask a question.

"Is there anything else?"

During the conversation, Li Zhirui and his party also walked into the family hall.

"The Xuan Bing Sect sent a True Lord here not long ago. Firstly, he made a reservation for the Five Elements Jade Peach in a few decades. Secondly, he invited the family to participate in the extermination of the demon clan in Taixu State."

"Xuan Bing Sect still doesn't give up? It seems that there are indeed some good things in the Taixu secret realm that they are longing for."

Li Zhirui thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, the Taixu Secret Realm will be opened in the past ten years, right?"

Unfortunately, the Taixu Monster Clan's strength should not be underestimated, and if they are pushed too hard, they will ask the Daxue Mountain Monster Clan to take action. Even if the two families join forces, they will not be able to get a deal.

Therefore, even though Li Zhirui had always known that there were many rare spiritual objects in the secret realm, he had no intention of targeting them.

What's more, it is the existence of the Taixu Monster Clan that allows the Li family to avoid bordering with the Xuan Bing Sect and not be invaded by the Xuan Bing Sect.

"How did you cope?"

Why not Jiang Fengwu? Because when they set out for Xuanfa State, Jiang Fengwu had a sudden burst of inspiration and was in seclusion for meditation. He has not yet come out of seclusion.

Li Xuefeng replied: "I said that the Jade Peach Spiritual Tree is your personal spiritual object, ancestor, and the family has no right to make the decision. As for the latter, I refused because of lack of strength."

"Well, if Xuan Bing Sect comes to talk about these two things again in the future, we will continue to prevaricate."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Li Xuefeng hurriedly said, "Ancestor, please stay for now, there is another important matter!"

"Say it."

Li Zhirui retracted his action, but he didn't want to hear Li Xuefeng's words asking the elders to leave first, "What happens next is my personal matter, so please keep out of the way, elders."

The expressions of the elders varied, and various speculations came to mind, most of which were related to the fact that Li Xuefeng had been the clan leader for many years and was about to step down.

‘Does he want to plead with the ancestor to let him continue to be the clan leader? ’

Li Chenghao frowned and quickly denied this guess. Based on his understanding of Li Zhirui, Uncle Jiu would never agree.

Moreover, Li Xuefeng is a smart man and knows that mentioning this kind of thing will not only not get Li Zhirui's help, but will also make him disgusted and hasten his downfall.
