Chapter 303 Li Shentong
Dongxu, Li's mansion.
In the hall, Li Changan looked at Li Changxing expressionlessly and said lightly: "Say it again."
The eyes of the Li family patriarch were far from calm. The anger hidden in his dark eyes seemed to burn everything, and it was extremely hot!
And Li Changxing, the fourth-level master of the Li family and Li Changan's cousin, was kneeling on the ground in a miserable state.
He was sweating profusely, his clothes were torn in several places, and were stained with grass leaves and dirt. He looked like he had just returned from escaping, without the former self-confidence.
Li Changxing couldn't help swallowing his saliva for the request just made by Li Changan, and felt his throat was extremely dry.
But he couldn't be mute, so he answered tremblingly: "Big, big brother, five, five uncle died in the battle, Chang, Chang Geng led the people to cover the rear, life, life or death is unknown!"
After saying that, the fourth-level Li family knocked his head heavily on the hard floor tiles and couldn't help crying.
At this time, a group of elders and leaders hurried to the hall. They heard Li Changxing's pleading and crying, and they were all stunned and couldn't believe their ears.
Li Wanlong, the only fifth-level strongman in the Li family, died?
Everyone seemed to be struck by thunder and stood there completely numb.
Li Changan: "Haha."
The head of the Li family laughed very creepily: "Then why are you still alive?"
Li Changxing knelt down and bowed his head, not daring or unable to answer at all.
An elder couldn't help but ask: "Li Changxing, what happened? How did Wanlong die? Tell me!"
This elder was of the same generation as Li Wanlong, but even older. His cultivation was not strong, but he had a high prestige in the clan.
He was so angry that he kicked Li Changxing.
Li Changxing didn't dare not answer.
So he told the whole story of how he and others went to Xishanji and surrounded and killed Zhao Yun.
After listening to it, all the senior members of the Li family looked at each other in surprise.
It felt like Li Changxing was telling a legendary story.
A mere fourth-level warrior actually defeated a fifth-level warrior plus two fourth-level warriors, as well as hundreds of elite warriors?
Li Wanlong died because of this, and Li Changgeng's life and death were unknown. Could this be true?
They didn't believe it, and they didn't want to believe it!
The elder who questioned Li Changxing was so angry that he shouted, "Li Changxing, are you crazy? How did Zhao Yun do it alone? Were you possessed by a ghost in the mountains?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the elders and leaders around him were shocked.
The next moment, a piece of evil-suppressing talisman was hit on Li Changxing's head and body.
Everyone would rather believe that Li Changxing was possessed by a ghost than admit that Li Wanlong was killed!
As a result, these talismans did not play any role. Li Changxing's reaction was very normal, and it was obvious that he was not possessed by a ghost.
The Li family master said with a sad face: "What I said is true. If you don't believe it, there are dozens of clan members outside, and they can all testify for me!"
"Enough!"
Li Changan shouted: "Immediately pass my order, all those involved in this matter will be confined, and anyone who dares to leak the news will be severely punished according to the family rules!"
The head of the Li family swept the people present with a sharp gaze, and everyone lowered their heads.
They didn't dare to look at him.
Only the elder of the clan was worried: "Head, what should we do next?"
Among the people present, he was probably the only one who had the qualifications and courage to ask Li Changan this question.
The Li family has been passed down in Xiaxu for hundreds of years. During this period, they have experienced countless storms and have encountered greater troubles than this, but what is needed now is to come up with a rule to deal with it immediately.
Otherwise, once the news spreads and the enemies of the Li family know the situation, the consequences are unpredictable!
As the saying goes, fire cannot be covered by paper.
Even if Li Changan issued a strict order, it is impossible to completely block the news.
Li Changan replied gloomily: "I will go to see the ancestor now!"
The ancestor he was talking about was naturally Li Shentong, the only sixth-level strongman in the Li family, the Dinghaishenzhen of the Xiaxu Li family.
After speaking, Li Changan looked at Li Changxing, and his tone was extremely cold: "Li Changxing, your life and death are also decided by the ancestor, just kneel here!"
He really hated this cousin to the extreme.
Li Changxing was known as the tiger of the Li family. He was violent, brave and aggressive. Everyone admired or feared him.
But now Li Changxing is completely a dog who lost his home.
It makes people feel unlucky just by looking at him!
As soon as the voice fell, Li Changan turned and left the hall.
The head of the Li family walked through the dark corridor, walked quickly into the inner house, and then stepped on the cobblestone path to an elegant and unique waterside courtyard.
In the wind and rain pavilion by the pond, an old man with white hair hanging down was sitting cross-legged.
The other person sat on a cushion, his eyes closed and his mind wandering, like a frozen statue.
But his face was ruddy and his skin was tight, without a single wrinkle on his face, and he looked quite young.
A correct version was found on the 16-9 book forum!
Just as Li Changan stepped into the pavilion, a bug flew up from the bushes next to him, flapping its wings and crashing into the white-haired old man without thinking.
As a result, before it could get close to the white-haired old man, the bug suddenly exploded in the air!
The white-haired old man opened his eyes at the same time.
Li Changan stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Grandfather, something happened to my fifth uncle."
He briefly and accurately explained the whole story and the thorny problems that the Li family was currently facing.
In fact, if it was not necessary, Li Changan would not want to disturb this long-term secluded ancestor.
But now the Li family has suffered heavy losses and has damaged its foundation!
And Li Shentong listened quietly, his expression did not change at all, as if all the things had nothing to do with him.
After Li Changan finished speaking, he asked calmly: "So what you mean now is that you want me to come forward to deal with this Zhao Yun, right?"
Li Changan smiled bitterly and said: "It's all up to the ancestor!"
"If you ask me for my opinion..."
Li Shentong sighed and replied: "Then I want you to withdraw the bounty on Zhao Yun and send someone to negotiate with him. Can you accept it?"
Li Changan was stunned.
He never dreamed that his ancestor would have such an idea.
A dignified sixth-level strongman, the century-old Xiaxu Li family, actually had to bow his head and admit defeat to an unknown fourth-level junior?
Li Changan couldn't bear it: "Old Ancestor!"
"I also want to avenge Wanlong."
Li Shentong said lightly: "But can you guarantee that after I leave, nothing will happen to the Li family and no one will come to cause trouble?"
Li Changan was speechless.
For decades, this old ancestor has never left the old house and has been practicing in seclusion in the inner courtyard.
No one can deny the importance of this sixth-level strongman to the Li family.
But has anyone ever thought about it.
This old house is also Li Shentong's prison?
Li Changan suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard!
