Castle Peak.
Half a year later, Lin Changan looked at Li Han who came back in shock.
"Li Han, what are you doing?"
Li Han's head was full of gray hair, and his lifeless look when he left made him look like two completely different people compared to the one before him.
Although Li Han's head was still gray at this time, his expression had returned to what it had been before, no! They were even more determined than when they first met, full of fighting spirit to seek immortality.
Lin Changan looked at the other party in shock, but Li Han grinned, "Senior Brother Changan, I'm back."
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
Although he didn't know what happened for half a year, Lin Changan smiled even more when he saw Li Han coming back. After all, he was really worried if he didn't have a trustworthy person to take care of his business.
In the past six months, he has always been unhappy with the business handled by his subordinates. He also knew the bigger reason. Naturally, he did not trust his subordinates. Looking at Li Han who came back, he smiled instead.
In half a year, if you hadn't looked at Li Han's gray hair, he would have returned to the young man who didn't know the heights of the world and was determined to seek the truth.
No!
This is a pair of eyes that are more mature and steady but full of perseverance. After being tempered, Li Han's Taoist heart has become even harder than iron.
"Come on, Li Han, it's just the right time for you to come back. I'm still having a headache about the following things."
Facing Lin Changan who warmly received him, Li Han smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Senior Brother Lin."
Seeing such a big change in Li Han, although Lin Changan didn't know what happened, he guessed that the other party must have been tempered in his heart. After all, in just half a year, his cultivation level had not increased, but his demeanor had changed like this. Big changes, only the state of mind has been refined and sublimated.
Li Han's embrace of fists clearly meant that he was willing to continue working when he came back. Lin Changan smiled and teased: "Are you going to leave this time?"
"I'm not leaving!" The calm and firm voice echoed, and Lin Changan looked at Li Han and suddenly became overjoyed.
"Let's go, there will be a banquet today, and we won't come back until we get drunk."
Under laughter, Lin Changan was also quite emotional. He was alone in his family. He felt the same way in Tianyuan City. Only when he came back here and saw Murong Yue, Li Han and Qi Feng again, did he feel a sense of belonging. .
After Li Han returned, he resumed his old business and took charge of Lin Changan's business in Qingshan City. He was also personally responsible for contacting Qingzhu Shanfang City.
When Murong Yue and Qi Feng from Qingzhu Shanfang City learned that Li Han was back, they also came to visit in person. The four of them got together again. However, due to the turmoil in Miaowa Country, the four of them separated again just three days later. .
No matter how turbulent the situation in Miaowa Country is, it generally cannot affect Lin Changan's business. Although the supply of goods has become increasingly scarce, as the situation has become turbulent, sales have become even more popular.
However, as the He family took root, and with the help of Bai Beijun behind him, it developed rapidly. Although its business has not directly affected Lin Changan, there are already signs.
The price of the same thing is very different. It's not buying from anyone. Buying from you, Lin Chang'an and the major forces in Qingshan City is just to gain your friendship, but you will obviously make more money from the He family.
After all, the Bai family is behind the He family. Purchasing things from the He family can actually please the Bai family. Everyone can see the accounts clearly, and no one is stupid.
You, Lin Changan, are just an interest group formed by a group of foundation-building families, and the Bai family behind the He family is one of the four major families. You must know that a hundred foundation-building families are not as good as one golden elixir ancestor. .
Of course, Lin Changan also has Tianxuan Palace behind him, but everyone is being squeezed under Tianxuan Palace. Not to mention whether they have any complaints in their hearts, they also know how mysterious Tianxuan Palace is.
Even if they please Lin Chang'an, Tianxuan Palace will not protect them. On the contrary, as time goes by, the situation in Miaowa Kingdom becomes more and more chaotic, and the prestige of Tianxuan Palace also begins to have problems.
Various news began to spread randomly, especially when it was reported that the master of Tianxuan Palace failed to practice in seclusion to break through the Nascent Soul, and that he had become a demon and died. Some people said that the lower levels of Tianxuan Palace had conquered the higher ones, and the world had changed a long time ago.
Anyway, all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, especially when Tianxuan Palace sits and watches the turmoil in the Miaowa Kingdom, its prestige plummets, which makes everyone more and more sure that there is something really wrong with Tianxuan Palace.
Otherwise, with the domineering character of the palace master of Tianxuan Palace, how could he tolerate so many people below him causing chaos.
…
"Brother Lin, the He family has gone too far recently. The various channels below are okay, but many people on the front line have begun to contact the He family. They clearly want to please the Bai family."
In the mansion, Chen Yi said with an angry face, although most of the so-called pleasing the Bai family was wishful thinking, and the more important thing was to please Bai Beijun, but who let the family name be 'Bai'.
Seeing Chen Yi's dissatisfaction, Lin Changan also smiled calmly, "Everything in business is fair competition, and of course we can't stop the buyer who they want to find."
After the He family began to leverage his interests, Lin Changan was also simmering with anger, but he still had nowhere to vent his anger.
Chen Yi glanced at Lin Changan and couldn't help but lower his voice and whispered: "Brother Lin, our business has been watched by many people recently, and everyone has suffered a lot as a result."
However, Lin Changan rolled his eyes at the other party angrily, shook his head and said: "The Tribulation Cultivator is raging, and you and I can't control it all, so we can only try our best to be prepared."
However, Chen Yi gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Lin, let's not hide it anymore. Why are there so many calamity cultivators suddenly? It's obviously the He family who secretly passed on the news. They are jealous of our business. The He family is too greedy. We’ve only been in Qingshan City for a few days, if we don’t keep silent now, won’t we have to let the He family ride on top of them in the future?”
"He family?"
Lin Changan looked at the other party thoughtfully and said lightly: "But recently, many business travelers in the He family have been robbed. This robbery cultivator is not just targeting us."
"Ahem!"
After hearing this, Chen Yi coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment. However, looking at Lin Changan's teasing eyes, he couldn't help but feel defeated. In other words, they were all in the same camp, and there was no need to hide some things. .
"Brother Lin, the He family must be blamed for this. The He family did it first, and we are just counterattacking. If the He family dares to secretly collude with Jie Xiu and tell them our business travel route, we will naturally do the same."
Looking at the indignant Chen Yi, Lin Changan nodded in agreement, "Indeed, since the He family can do it, we can do it too."
"But!" Suddenly Lin Changan changed the topic and shook his head: "In this way, you and I are constantly fighting openly and secretly, and all we have lost is the white spirit stones. For a long time, we all want to earn spirit stones, not vindictiveness. .”
Facing Lin Changan's words, Chen Yi couldn't help but show curiosity, "Brother Lin, what do you mean?"
I saw a cold light flashing in Lin Changan's eyes, and he said calmly: "It is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt him. If you continue to fight for a long time, you will lose everyone's spiritual stones, so it is better to just act cruelly."
"The He family's current reliance, apart from the Bai family, is nothing more than the eight foundation-building monks in the family. The old ones lead the new ones in the fire inheritance. Then we will join forces to rob the cultivators, spend a lot of money, and directly kill the He family. A foundation-building monk, will the He family still have the confidence by then?"
Seeing Lin Changan being so cruel, Chen Yi was shocked at first, then shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Brother Lin, you can feed yourself and the whole family is not hungry. We all have a big family and a big business. It's not that we haven't thought about this. But I can’t do it.”
"In the same way, if we can do it, the He family can do it too. When it reaches the level of foundation-building monks, it is already related to the rise and fall of the family. Once a few foundation-building monks of the He family are really killed, the He family will also become ruthless. , we won’t be able to afford the loss by then.”
How can they survive in the Miaowa Kingdom without using dark methods? However, the situation is tense at the moment. They fight one after another and dare not rise to a higher level. Once the casualties of foundation-building monks on both sides begin to occur, affecting the rise and fall of the family, This is a life and death enemy.
Once it is opened, one party must be eliminated before there is any outside intervention.
At present, no one on either side is ready for this, and no one dares to do so. The four major families above will definitely not sit idly by and watch this happen.
Lin Changan was so bold simply because he had enough to eat and the whole family was not hungry. The sect under his command was purely a puppet for resource extraction and did not take it seriously at all. Since he had no descendants of the family, he naturally dared to do so.
However, seeing Chen Yi being so timid, Lin Changan sneered, "Don't you dare do it, I'm afraid you won't have this opportunity in the future."
"How?" Chen Yi frowned and asked out his doubts. It wasn't that they didn't dare, but there was no need to cause a big mess at this time. After all, no one would casually involve the family's rise and fall.
However, Lin Changan looked at Chen Yi sarcastically, "As far as I know, the He family has three new foundation-building monks. These three are all hidden secretly. With the eight foundation-building monks, how can the He family be?" How could he be so willing to give up before he has returned to his prime, and the He family’s heritage is indeed there.”
"Look at this."
Lin Changan threw out a jade token with an indifferent expression. Chen Yi took the jade token with doubts. His pupils shrank when he examined it with his spiritual sense, and his face was full of shock.
"This this!"
Chen Yi stammered in shock, and finally raised his head to look at Lin Changan and said solemnly: "Brother Lin, this is not a joke."
"A joke?" Lin Changan sneered, "You're overthinking, or maybe we all underestimate the He family. Their ambitions are far greater than ours. Do you think what they want to do is to revive the He family's peak?" With great prestige, he became the number one family in Qingshan City, but he didn’t know that his ambitions were even greater.”
"This is information from the Huang family in Tianyuan City. If you are suspicious, you can arrange for someone to secretly inquire about it. The He family offended the Huang family in the first place because the He family was too ambitious and even wanted to seek for pill-forming things. What's more, the He family offended the Huang family. If he wants to become the fourth Jindan Patriarch in Tianyuan City, how can the Huang family tolerate him?"
"Even the entire Tianyuan City won't be able to accommodate the He family. The golden elixir is so precious. Can't the ancestor of the golden elixir seize it and leave it to future generations?"
"And the He family chose to flee Tianyuan City as soon as they knew the news was exposed. Five of the so-called top ten foundation-building monks were killed by the Huang family. These are all nonsense. The Huang family said it themselves. , in order to preserve the family, after the He family gave the information about the golden elixir treasure to the city lord, the Huang family just acted secretly, seriously injuring three people and killing two foundation-building monks."
When he said this, Lin Changan even sneered. When he first received the information from Liu Yanran in Tianyuan City, he was also full of shock.
He really didn't expect that the He family's ambitions were so big. As for the news that Liu Yanran knew so well, it was natural that the He family sent the information about the golden elixir to the city lord's palace in Tianyuan City, and the Huang family didn't get a single hair out of it. .
After all, the He family is not stupid. If he really wants to give it to the Huang family, the Huang family may not be able to let him go. The other families will also hold grudges and kill them. So they just don't do anything and directly give it to the lord of Tianyuan City in exchange for safety. Conditions for leaving Tianyuan Kingdom.
Therefore, when the Huang family was angry, they could only secretly spend a lot of money to find someone to mess with the He family. He himself did not dare. After all, the power of the city lord of Tianyuan City was not weak at all.
"That is to say, the He family hid three foundation-building monks back then!"
When Chen Yi saw this information, his scalp was numb and he was even more shocked. Now there are eight foundation-building monks in the He family. Although three of them are new to the foundation-building realm, plus the three hidden Foundation-building monk.
Damn it, in terms of the number of foundation-building monks, there are already eleven foundation-building monks in the He family.
Looking at the shocked Chen Yi, Lin Changan even sneered: "Why do you think the He family is not stable in Tianyuan City, because Tianyuan City does not allow such an awesome He family to appear, but they can allow a powerful foundation-building family, But if there is another Jindan family, no one will allow it. After all, there are only so many benefits and they have already been divided."
"If another Jindan family appears, how will the benefits be divided? Will the other Jindan ancestors be willing to cut their flesh?"
When he said this, Lin Changan even smiled disdainfully, "But the He family does have the courage. It was because they took a fancy to the situation in the Miaowa Kingdom that they dared to intervene."
"The country of Miaowa is in turmoil. Now the four major families are at loggerheads with the Peng family. If the He family really becomes the fifth largest force and a golden elixir ancestor emerges, then the deadlock will be broken. For the four major families, Speaking of which, the situation in Miaowa Country is so corrupt anyway, and the Peng family is coming in force."
"The four major families can tolerate the emergence of a new Jindan family. After all, the He family is still far behind in terms of background. Compared with the weakest Jindan family and the Peng family, which has the ability to suppress the four major families, you think the four major families With whom is the family willing to share the power of the Miaowa Kingdom?"
After Lin Changan finished speaking, Chen Yi swallowed nervously. Regardless of whether the three foundation-building monks hidden by the He family were true or false, the ambition of the He family alone was enough to make them fearful.
"Although the golden elixir spiritual object is gone, at least it proves one thing, that is, the He family has a monk who has established the Great Perfection, and has even touched the threshold of the golden elixir. You said that even if the He family is incapable at this time, the four major Will the family help the He family?"
Lin Changan said with a thoughtful look, "There may be a lot of foundation-building monks among the four major families, but those who have completed the foundation-building and have touched the threshold of the golden elixir are hard to come by, not in terms of resources. It can appear through cultivation, and talent, understanding, opportunity, and resources are all indispensable.”
"In the past, the four major families would have eaten up all the bones and scraps of the He family, but now there is an additional golden elixir to help, even if it is a new monk who has entered the golden elixir realm, this is also a boost. At least it gives you more confidence to fight against the Peng family, right?"
"After all, the Peng family has a monk who is in the late stage of the Golden Core, and there is also a monk who is in the early stage of the Golden Core and is even preparing to break through to the middle stage. With this strength and foundation, his ambition is the entire Miaowa Kingdom, and the rise of the He family is only Just carve out a part if you need to, and no one knows how to do it.”
Lin Changan's words were not false. He was shocked when he saw this information about the He family for the first time, and he was even more shocked by the courage of the He family. (End of chapter)
