Li Xiuping looked at these people from the Tianlan Sect, and these people from the Tianlan Sect also looked at Li Xiuping, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little tense.
Before Li Xiuping made any move, the people from the Tianlan Sect walked towards Li Xiuping.
But what everyone didn’t expect was that when the Nascent Soul Stage strongman from the Tianlan Sect approached Li Xiuping, he saluted directly to Li Xiuping and said, “Earlier, the evil disciples of the despicable sect did not know the identity of Mr. Li. , I have offended them so much, I am here to apologize to Mr. Li, I will bring them here and hand them over to Mr. Li for disposal."
After saying that, he said in a deep voice: "Why don't you get out!"
The disciples of the Tianlan Sect who had fought against Li Xiuping hurriedly stepped forward, then knelt down in front of everyone and begged, "Please spare your life, Mr. Li."
This situation was somewhat beyond Li Xiuping's expectation, because according to common sense, it was impossible for these people to know his identity so quickly, unless the Lan Sect had already paid attention to him that day, or had something to do with the Qingxu Temple.
The former is unlikely, so there is only the second possibility.
Li Xiuping not only showed his identity in Qingxu Guan, but also stated that he would interfere in the affairs of Tianlan Sect and Huatian Sect. If there is any connection between Tianlan Sect and Qingxu Guan, Qingxu Guan will definitely take action immediately. This news was told to Tianlan Sect. In addition, Tianlan Sect's disciples had just had a conflict with Li Xiuping and the two had contacted each other. Naturally, Tianlan Sect soon knew Li Xiuping's identity and whereabouts.
Li Xiuping looked at the Tianlan Sect disciples kneeling on the ground and said, "I'm serious, senior, just don't blame me for hurting the disciples of your noble sect. As for what happened before, just treat it as a misunderstanding."
Hearing this, the disciples of the Tianlan Sect immediately felt as if they were being pardoned, and they kowtowed one by one in thanks.
The Nascent Soul Stage strongman from the Tianlan Sect said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Li Hailiang. If Mr. Li has any instructions in the future, I, the Tianlan Sect, will go through fire and water without delay."
Li Xiuping said: "There happens to be something that I need to discuss with senior. Since senior is here, we might as well sit down and have a chat."
The Tianlan Sect elder frowned slightly, but still moved up and sat down opposite Li Xiuping, while asking the Tianlan Sect disciples to step back.
After the elder of Tianlan Sect sat down, Li Xiuping picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for him. He said at the same time, "I heard that Tianlan Sect and Huatian Sect have some disputes?"
The elder of the Tianlan Sect obviously knew what Li Xiuping was going to say. He nodded and said: "Actually, it's not a big grudge. It was just that there were some conflicts over a small matter of recruiting disciples. This back and forth has become a big problem. The current situation has come to an end.”
He said bitterly: "Master Li also knows that most of the grievances and grievances in the cultivation world are like this."
Li Xiuping nodded, pushed the teacup filled with tea to the other party, and asked: "Then I wonder if Tianlan Sect can give me some face and let this matter go?"
The elder of the Tianlan Sect was stunned and said: "Although I can't completely represent the Tianlan Sect, now that Mr. Li has spoken, I will represent the Tianlan Sect as the master for once. I am afraid that the Hua Tianzong will do something wrong because of Mr. Li." , when he grows stronger, he won’t let me, Tianlan Sect, go.”
Li Xiuping was stunned, it was really possible.
Li Xiuping also poured himself a cup of tea and said: "Senior, you can rest assured. As long as Tianlan Sect does not take action against Hua Tianzong, I can guarantee that Hua Tianzong will not take action against Tianlan Sect."
The elder of Tianlan Sect nodded and said, "With Mr. Li's words, I can rest assured."
It can be seen that neither the Tianlan Sect nor the Huatian Sect actually want to continue this endless feud. The fighting back and forth not only failed to gain anything, but also caused heavy losses to their own sects. It's just that once something like this involving sect grievances starts, there is no possibility of stopping, because whichever family retreats first will have a huge impact on their reputation, plummeting, and the other family will inevitably take advantage of the situation to suppress it.
So even if both parties are unwilling, they can only continue to waste it like this.
The only way to resolve this situation is either for the two families to sit down and negotiate calmly, or for someone to mediate.
The possibility of peace talks is very small, and if you want to find someone to mediate, it must be at least a strong person in the distraction stage. After all, both families have ancestors in the transformation stage. If they are not strong in the distraction stage, it will be difficult for the ancestors of the two families to give face. .
It's hard to find a strong person in the transformation stage, let alone a strong person in the distraction stage. Even if there is one, neither of the two families will be able to hire him.
Now that Mr. Li has come forward to mediate, it is just right.
Although this Young Master Li does not have the cultivation level of the Distraction Stage. On the contrary, he only has the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage. However, the influence that this Young Master Li possesses is no worse than that of a strong person in the Distraction Stage. The key is his face. Both ancestors are willing to give it.
Anyway, neither family is willing to continue this stalemate, so Mr. Li's willingness to come forward is giving the two families the best step, and they have no reason not to continue.
This is also the reason why this Tianlan Sect elder said that he can make decisions on his own behalf and make decisions on behalf of the Tianlan Sect.
Li Xiuping didn't seem to expect that the other party would agree so readily, and he was a little surprised, but he quickly said with a smile: "Senior is indeed a cheerful person. Since senior is so cheerful, then junior will not let Tianlan Sect suffer." .”
The elder of the Tianlan Sect quickly smiled and said: "I naturally believe in Mr. Li. Again, if Mr. Li needs anything, within the scope of our Tianlan Sect's ability, we will never postpone it, such as this Lingbao transaction. At the conference, if Mr. Li likes something, just say so."
Li Xiuping picked up the tea cup and said with a smile: "Seriously?"
The Tianlan Sect elder frowned slightly.
Li Xiuping continued: "If I like that fairy weapon, can the Tianlan Sect buy it?"
The elder of Tianlan Sect frowned even deeper.
Li Xiuping looked at the embarrassment on his face and said with a smile: "I'm just kidding, Hua Tianzong has already done this, otherwise I wouldn't interfere in the affairs of your two families."
The elder of Tianlan Sect breathed a sigh of relief and thought about something.
After a while, the Tianlan Sect elder continued: "Besides that fairy weapon, if Young Master Li needs anything else, our Tianlan Sect can buy it and give it to Young Master Li."
Li Xiuping said, "Senior, just help me pay attention to some materials needed for making swords."
This Tianlan Sect elder was indeed a cheerful person, and he agreed directly without any hesitation.
After the discussion, the elder of the Tianlan Sect said goodbye and left. After all, there were some things that needed to be sent back to the sect immediately, and there were other things that needed to be prepared in advance, such as the sword-making materials that Li Xiuping needed, and the information about his disciples. constraint……
After sending the Tianlan Sect elder away, Li Xiuping sat alone, lost in thought.
Although we still don’t know the purpose of that sage, we can at least see that Qingxu Guan is related to the Tianlan Sect. Judging from the attitude of the Tianlan Sect, it at least shows that people like the Tianlan Sect who are powerful in the transformation stage The sect where the leader is sitting does not want to stand on his opposite side.
Since such a sect does not want to stand against him, it means that there has not been any news that any strong person wants to deal with him, Li Xiuping. This can be regarded as a good thing.
It's just that Tianlan Sect arrived in advance and asked Li Xiuping to help Huatian Sect solve the crisis in advance. However, there is no news yet whether Huatian Sect has made a decision and whether it is determined to help him buy the immortal weapon.
But regardless of whether there was any result from Hua Tianzong, at least what Li Xiuping promised had been done, and it was much smoother than expected. It could even be said that it was just a matter of effort, and because of this matter, he also got the Tianlan Sect. There are many benefits, this can be regarded as an unexpected gain.
Of course, if Huatian Sect failed to buy the immortal artifact as agreed, Li Xiuping would not do anything to Huatian Sect, but he would not show that he had anything to do with Huatian Sect. Then Huatian Sect Whether Zong will be in trouble again will naturally have nothing to do with him, Li Xiuping.
Now that he has expressed his attitude to Tianlan Sect, as long as Huatian Sect buys the immortal weapon at the Lingbao Trading Conference and then gives it to himself, then everyone will know that Huatian Sect With his relationship with Li Xiuping, even if someone does take action against him afterwards, as long as he is not dead, as long as he is still alive, no one will dare to touch Hua Tianzong easily. As for those big sects, there is no need to waste time to deal with them. A Huatian Sect.
Furthermore, it is not an easy task to really destroy a sect with a powerful person in the God Transformation stage, and it will be ridiculed by others.
He couldn't kill Li Xiuping, but he attacked a small sect. Wasn't he damaging his own reputation?
And if Hua Tianzong had not bought the immortal weapon at the Lingbao Trading Conference and given it to Li Xiuping, Tianlan Sect would have known that Hua Tianzong had deceived Li Xiuping, and not only would Tianlan Sect have If they continue to attack Hua Tianzong, they might even intensify their efforts to suppress Hua Tianzong because of Li Xiuping.
But at that time, everything had nothing to do with him, Li Xiuping. What the Tianlan Sect thinks and does, and what kind of situation the Huatian Sect will face as a result, are all their own business.
What Li Xiuping has to consider now is to prepare for the worst, and the worst plan is that the wise man will take action against him, so he must determine the wise man's attitude before the wise man takes action. Then either run away or stay.
Li Xiuping just leaned back and closed his eyes.
Since we have to consider the worst of things, we naturally won't pray for the best.
After sitting alone for a while, Li Xiuping got up and walked back to his room. After lighting the oil lamp, he took out the jade slip left by the senior sword master and continued to study the sword magic on it until the oil lamp was almost burning. Go to sleep.
Early the next morning, before Li Xiuping even got out of bed, Hua Tianzong came over and said that the matter had been discussed and Hua Tianzong agreed to help Li Xiuping purchase the immortal artifact.
Hearing this news, Li Xiuping was somewhat surprised. After all, he had proposed the same thing to Tianlan Sect before, but although Tianlan Sect did not refuse, it also did not agree directly. Hua Tianzong gave it so quickly. The answer really surprised Li Xiuping.
However, Hua Tianzong has already made a decision, and it is developing in a good direction. Li Xiuping is naturally happy to see the results.
Because of the grievances between Huatian Sect and Tianlan Sect, he was first involved inexplicably. Then in order to help the two sects resolve their grievances, first Huatian Sect paid for him to buy immortal weapons, and then Tianlan Sect paid for it. I helped him buy the materials needed to make the sword, and I also disposed of half of the magic weapons at Qingxu Temple. The development of everything this time couldn't be better.
Before this, Li Xiuping never dared to think like this.
But precisely because things went so smoothly and were so beneficial to him, Li Xiuping became more and more afraid of making any carelessness. He even suspected that behind these two incidents, something detrimental to him was being planned.
There was nothing he could do. He had never encountered anything so smooth along the way. Now that everything had suddenly become so smooth, he naturally had to be on guard, otherwise he would not know how he would die.
Li Xiuping looked at the woman who knew how to refine weapons and asked casually: "Since both Tianlan Sect and Huatian Sect want to take you into their sect at the same time, why did you choose Huatian Sect with poorer background in the end instead of Tianlan Sect?”
The woman who knew how to practice Qi looked at Li Xiuping and frowned slightly, but still said: "Because Tianlan Sect only values my talent in refining weapons instead of treating me as a true disciple, but Hua Tianzong is different. What they value is not my talent for refining weapons, but my talent for cultivation, so they have not asked me to refine weapons in these years, but only taught me the secret method of cultivation."
Li Xiuping nodded and said with a smile: "But you still refined weapons for Huatian Sect."
The woman who knew how to refine weapons was stunned, and naturally understood what Li Xiuping meant. She nodded and said: "Even if it is what the young master thinks, at least Hua Tianzong is willing to pretend, but Tianlan Sect is too lazy to even pretend. "
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "So sometimes, hypocrisy is more likable."
The woman who knew how to refine weapons was stunned.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "I just said casually, and did not deliberately refer to the matter between you and Hua Tianzong. Go back and thank Hua Tianzong for me. As long as you can hand over the immortal weapon to me, I promise Huatian Sect will no longer have any trouble, and the entire Huatian Sect will also gain greater benefits from this matter."
The woman who knew how to refine weapons nodded and left.
Li Xiuping looked at the woman's back and found it quite interesting.
He didn't know anything about this woman before, but now that the woman said this, his impression of the Huatian Sect was not as good as that of the Tianlan Sect.
According to this woman, she had two choices at the beginning, one was the Huatian Sect and the other was the Tianlan Sect. Logically speaking, the Tianlan Sect was more powerful and naturally more suitable. A talented person should go to the more powerful one. However, this woman chose the weaker Huatian Sect. The reason was because the Tianlan Sect valued her talent in refining weapons and wanted her to refine weapons for the Tianlan Sect, but the Huatian Sect did not She was asked to refine weapons, so she felt that Hua Tianzong valued her more.
But in fact, although Huatianzong did not ask her to refine weapons, she still made weapons for Huatianzong later. This may be the brilliance of Huatianzong. It was clear that she wanted something but did not ask for it, and in the end she got what she asked for, but Tianlan Sect, however, was straightforward, saying that they needed her talent in weapon refining, so they let this woman choose Huatian Sect.
After watching the woman's back disappear, Li Xiuping said with a smile: "Senior Jiu Xian is really right, women like what they like, and they all like others to hold her in their hands as a treasure, even if it is a conspiracy or a lie, They all like it equally."
"Master Li is still a sentimental person." A voice suddenly sounded. Li Xiuping looked back and saw an old man walking over with a smile on his face.
Seeing this person, Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown, and even got a little excited.
Layman Qingming!
Ambassador Li Xiuping never expected that he would meet here the old man who had once drawn a sword for him to fight against the entire Taoist sect, the layman Qingming, one of the eight sages.
Li Xiuping was shocked at first, and then a little excited.
With this senior here, the things he had been worried about before could be reduced by half. At least even if the sage presiding over the Lingbao Trading Conference wanted to take action against him, he would have the power to resist.
In other words, this layman Qingming is actually the real manipulator behind this Lingbao trading conference?
And what will be auctioned at the Lingbao Trading Conference, could it be the fairy sword Qingming on his back?
Li Xiuping said in surprise: "Senior, why are you here? Are you the one who operates this Lingbao Trading Conference?"
The layman Qingming was stunned and said with a smile: "Then you think too highly of me. How can I be so capable? Besides, I only have this Qingming in my possession. How can I put it up for auction?"
Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown. Since the person behind this was not the Qingming layman, then there was someone else, and there was still the possibility of taking action against him.
Master Qingming smiled and said, "Won't you buy me a drink?"
When he said this, he was staring at the wine bottle on Li Xiuping's waist.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Of course, seniors will invite you."
The two walked into the inn, and Li Xiuping ordered the storekeeper to prepare food and drinks.
After sitting down, layman Qingming answered Li Xiuping's previous question and said: "I heard about your situation in the north, so I ran over to see if I could help. After meeting the sword master in the sword-washing pool, he said You have already gone to Emperor Wu City, so I chased you. I heard some news about the demon clan on the way, so I wanted to go and have a look. I happened to hear that someone was holding a spirit treasure trading conference here, so I stopped by to see if I could pick up the missing items. , I didn’t expect to meet you instead.”
Li Xiuping asked directly: "Is that senior sword master okay?"
The layman Qingming said with a smile: "He is also a swordsman after all. The guys from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower can't threaten him, but this time Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower should be serious. I met him." At the time, he didn’t seem to be doing too well.”
Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown.
The layman Qingming said with a smile: "Don't worry, he has returned to the sword-washing pool, probably also to discuss matters about dealing with the demons."
When he said this, his face looked a little heavy and he said: "It concerns the demon clan. No matter how big the grudge is, I'm afraid it can only be put aside temporarily."
Then he looked at Li Xiuping and said with a smile: "Otherwise, how could you still be alive and kicking now? The guys from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower would have torn you into pieces long ago."
Li Xiuping said bitterly: "So, I have to thank the so-called demons that I have never even seen."
