"Speaking of which, I only found out through an extremely coincidental circumstance. The casual cultivator Xiong Zhanmo wanted to recruit as his son-in-law turned out to be an old acquaintance of the clan leader, Li Yuntian, who refinished the formation for our Zhao family back then!"
Li Yuntian!
Zhao Yongqi's heart moved.
A figure with dark skin, mediocre appearance, and touching his nose immediately appeared in his mind.
According to what Li Yuntian told back then.
Because he received the guidance of a fortune teller, he lived in Weishan for a long time and secretly searched for the "mountain spirit ink stone" existing on Weishan.
pity.
Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
Shanling Inkstone was first discovered by Zhao Yongqi.
have no choice.
Li Yuntian could only help the Zhao family by refining the Fiery Octagon Array in exchange for the Shanling Ink Stone in Zhao Yongqi's hand.
It took two years.
The refining of the Fiery Octagonal Formation is completed.
Zhao Yongqi cherishes talents.
He tried to recruit Li Yuntian many times, but unfortunately he declined them all. After getting the Shanling Ink Stone, Li Yuntian disappeared and his whereabouts are no longer known.
did not expect.
Li Yuntian also has this connection with the Xiong family.
Calculate the time.
After Li Yuntian disappeared.
It happened to be the honeymoon period between the Xiong family and the Zhao family, and it didn't take long before Xiong Wushuang was recommended to Zhao Yongqi.
some of.
Is there some reason?
Zhao Yongqi frowned and thought.
If Xiong Zhanmo also discovered Li Yuntian's talent for formations and wanted to recruit him under his command, that would barely make sense.
only.
Zhao Yongqi thought.
Things won't be that simple.
Xiong Zhanmo proposed marriage to Xiong Wushuang one after another, from Li Yuntian to Zhao Yongqi. There was definitely a secret that he didn't know about.
pity.
Li Yuntian was nowhere to be found.
Otherwise, you can ask him a question.
...
"in addition."
Wait a moment.
Seeing Zhao Yongqi look at him again, Shadow Beast continued: "There is another news."
"Xiong Zhanmo took advantage of this period of time to break through to the late stage of foundation building in seclusion. Now he has brought more than forty core disciples of the Xiong family and is on the way to Wuyuan Valley."
Zhao Yongqi nodded slightly: "I know."
The Xiong family wants to sign an alliance contract with the Zhao family to advance and retreat together.
It stands to reason.
Xiong Zhanyang was also qualified to sign the contract, but Xiong Zhanmo had to do it himself, saying that he would immediately decide on the marriage between Xiong Wushuang and Zhao Yongqi.
This period of time.
Zhao Yongqi was waiting for Xiong Zhanmo.
As soon as he arrives, they will immediately get engaged and form a contract, and then the Xiong family and the Zhao family will come forward to discuss the establishment of the market with many clans.
to this end.
The Xiong family also begged Li Xiuwen, the golden elixir elder of the Thousand Layers Alliance.
It is said.
When Xiong Zhanyang arrives at Wuyuan Valley, a direct disciple of Jindan Elder Li Xiuwen will also arrive with him.
It was to support the Zhao and Xiong families.
Let them face many eighth-grade clans and have the confidence to talk to each other on an equal footing, so that they will not be at a disadvantage.
Xiong Zhanmo broke through to the late stage of foundation building.
Zhao Yongqi didn't know it before.
However, this is just a side detail. A late-stage foundation-building monk cannot influence the current situation.
...
Now.
Zhao Yongqi also couldn't figure out what the Qianzhong Alliance's attitude was.
To say that thinking is not good for the Zhao family.
However, the cooperation between the Zhao family and the Xiong family was not hindered in any way. Elder Li Xiuwen even sent his own disciples to come forward.
no doubt.
This is a signal to support the Xiong family and the Zhao family.
According to Zhao Yongqi's considerations.
Just be prepared.
on the one hand.
Normally forming an alliance with the Xiong family and getting engaged, if everything goes well in the end and the Qianzhong Alliance doesn't take action against the Zhao family, that would be the best!
on the other hand.
We also need to arrange a way out.
If it really comes to the end, with the Immortality Sect as the last resort, we won't be helpless.
Moreover.
There is the Immortality sect that is obstructing this.
Zhao Yongqi didn't believe that everything would be safe in the end. The conflict of interests between the Changsheng Sect and the Qianzhong Alliance is an irreconcilable contradiction.
unless.
One side is willing to make concessions.
"Is there anything else?"
It's a long story, but in fact, in just three or two breaths, dozens of thoughts flashed through Zhao Yongqi's mind.
"No."
The shadow beast shook his head.
Then, it turned into a black shadow and lay flat on the ground like paper.
"It seems that Zhao Yongpei's intelligence network is still limited, and he cannot find out information about the senior officials of the Qianzhong Alliance."
Zhao Yongqi closed his eyes slightly.
He was thinking silently in his mind.
This period of time.
Although Zhao Yongpei passed on a lot of information, the most important and critical part was missing, which was the unfavorable attitude of the Qianzhong Alliance towards the Zhao family.
The possibility that Zhao Yongpei deliberately concealed it was very small.
That's it.
He had no idea about this news.
This also shows.
Although the intelligence network established by Zhao Yongpei is huge, it is still somewhat lacking in confidential information about the core strata.
...
Let this matter go.
Zhao Yongqi turned to think about the Zhao family's situation.
He was still a little uneasy about leaving his fate in the hands of the Thousand Layers Alliance and the Immortality Sect.
Talk about it.
These two families are of the same species, fighting for each other's interests, and the Zhao family is just a pawn and weight in the fight between the two!
This is the helplessness of the small clan.
Zhao Yongqi has the power of reincarnation, so he can always treat things calmly.
If it were an ordinary monk.
I’m afraid I don’t know how uneasy I am!
...
Thought for a long time.
Zhao Yongqi glanced at the shadow beast in the corner.
Suddenly stood up.
Walked out of the quiet room and came to the courtyard.
He patted the storage bag and held a jade talisman in his hand.
The jade talisman is the size of a palm.
On the back are engraved three complex ancient texts - Shuiyue Valley.
On the front is the word "Duanmu".
This was a token given by Senior Duanmu, the female Golden Elixir cultivator who was in charge of Wuliang Ship when the Zhao family first came to southern Xinjiang.
Shuiyue Valley opens up vast and boundless land in southern Xinjiang.
Today there are nearly thirty realms like the Thousand Layers Domain.
If placed in the Plains of All Nations, it would be equivalent to the existence of more than thirty countries. This shows how vast its area is.
According to the Shuiyuegu system.
In each domain, the corresponding Shuiyue Valley Jindan Daxiu is responsible for regulating yin and yang, and working with the local seventh-grade clan to maintain the security and stability of the domain.
And the Thousand Layers Domain is controlled by Senior Duanmu!
only.
This senior Duanmu doesn't like to get involved in trivial matters.
Therefore, the presence in Qianzhong Domain is not high.
"Perhaps, when the crisis comes, only Senior Duanmu, who was born in Shuiyue Valley, can help the Zhao family escape."
Zhao Yongqi didn't know the character of this senior Duanmu.
I don’t know if he will help.
But the situation is already like this. No matter what her character is, can the situation of the Zhao family get worse?
This is the thought.
Zhao Yongqi no longer hesitated.
With a little force on his palm, he immediately crushed the jade talisman in his hand.
I saw.
The broken jade talisman was like the water of the Milky Way. It did not fall to the ground, but flowed along Zhao Yongqi's palm, forming a vivid "transparent bird" in the blink of an eye.
Delicate wind whirlpools circle around the "bird" like a wind spirit.
"Chirp..."
"Bird" stood on Zhao Yongqi's fingertips and met his eyes.
He understood.
Wei Wei whispered: "Senior Duanmu, junior Weishan Zhao family..."
