Chapter 127 Chapter 127 "Don't think you can kill...
"Don't think you can get what you want by killing us!" Whitebeard said loudly with his face flushed.
"We will not compromise easily! No matter what you do!" Blackbeard shouted.
Li Baihe nodded: "It seems that you don't understand the situation at all. It's too tiring to explain things to you. It's better to control it directly."
He raised his hand, and two puppet strings wrapped around the necks of the two people opposite him. They felt their bodies suddenly stiffen, out of control, and they stood there in a daze.
Li Baili sighed and frowned: "I'll ask you one last time, is it okay or not?"
The two of them were silent.
Now that things have come to this, there is nothing more to ask.
Li Baili clapped her hands, and the puppet strings were inserted into their necks. They opened their eyes again and smiled at Li Baili: "You can take everyone here away."
"Then let's hold another meeting!" Li Baili thought about it.
"Okay," Whitebeard nodded, "We'll make arrangements now."
The meeting held this time had only one theme, that is, Blackbeard and Whitebeard announced to all the people attending the meeting that Li Baihe became the new leader of Penglai.
Everyone was very surprised.
Many people raised opinions, but nothing came of it in the end, so the matter was finalized at the end of the meeting.
Many people went to Blackbeard and Whitebeard privately to ask about the specific situation, but all they got was "no comment". They began to suspect that there was a problem, so they also got the puppet lines.
Li Baili controlled almost all the people in Penglai. The rest were either indifferent to the people around them or were insensitive to everything and could not sense any changes at all.
Of course, they could also be doing it on purpose, pretending that there were no doubts, in order to secretly pursue the truth. If they could really find out, the result would be the same.
In fact, people with puppet strings will not change much. They still have their past memories, past bodies, and past cultivation. Their behavior patterns and temperaments will not change much.
There was only one thing they would remain steadfast on, and that was to obey any order from Li Baili.
Li Baili originally didn't plan to do this, but talking to them was too tiring. Rather than going through so much trouble in the future, or having to do this from time to time, he thought it would be better to get rid of it once and for all.
Anyway, getting the puppet line doesn't affect their work. On the contrary, because they all listen to Li Baili, their efficiency is improved. This is a blessing in disguise.
Li Qinglian was fine. No one knew what he was doing, just wandering around leisurely. When he came in front of Li Baili, the meeting was over and Li Baili was ready to leave.
"Are you leaving so soon? Are all the things done?" Li Qinglian frowned and asked with some confusion.
Li Baili looked him up and down and laughed: "The elders just had another meeting. I was there too. Why weren't you there?"
"Another meeting? I don't know!" Li Qinglian shook his head, looking confused.
"Where have you been?" Li Baili asked with a smile.
"I wanted to take advantage of your time in Penglai to sort out all the things I left behind in Penglai. I didn't expect that after I finally finished sorting them, you were about to leave when I came out." Li Qinglian said sincerely.
"Just that?" Li Baili raised her eyebrows and asked in disbelief.
Li Qinglian was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "There is one more thing. I just saw Yang Yushu."
"What is he doing?" Li Baili asked.
"He's touching here and looking there, as if he's here to play." Li Qinglian said with a smile.
"Where did you see him?" Li Baili asked again.
"He was just outside my room. I was handling some things in the room. When I opened the door, I saw him outside. I wanted to say hello to him, but he disappeared. He seemed to be thinking about something, so I didn't chase after him." Li Qinglian thought for a while and shook his head.
"Why is he in Penglai? Was he invited by Penglai?" Li Baili asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I don't know about that," Li Qinglian shook his head. "Logically, Penglai wouldn't invite him to be a guest, but who knows? I'm not in Penglai during this period."
There were footsteps not far away.
The two looked over and Yang Yushu came out.
He smiled and greeted Li Baili and Li Qinglian, and said naturally, "It's been a while since we last met, right?"
"What have you been doing recently?" Li Baili nodded and asked calmly.
"Walk around," Yang Yushu said with a smile, spreading his hands. "It's pretty boring for me to be alone. I'm not familiar with the demons, and I don't have much to say to the sealed ones."
"Besides Demon Island and Penglai, where else have you been?" Li Baili was a little curious and asked tentatively.
Yang Yushu stared at him and smiled: "I went to the back of my manor to look at the cemetery. If you are willing to come to my house now, I would be happy to welcome you."
Li Baili lowered her eyes and thought about it.
He is now a little weaker than when he was injured. After all, using so many puppet strings is also a burden. If he was at his strongest, this would not be a big deal, but it is different now. He really needs to rest.
"Okay." Li Baili raised her eyes and smiled at Yang Yushu.
"Do you want to take Changsheng with you?" Yang Yushu tilted his head and asked Li Baili.
Li Baili opened her eyes, a little confused: "You have seen him too?"
Yang Yushu laughed: "When you were playing with him, I would occasionally pass by, but it's not surprising that you didn't notice me. I didn't say hello to you, and I wasn't close to you."
"Isn't it inappropriate to bring him along?" Li Baili hesitated.
"If you are willing to take her, then take her. If you don't want to, forget it. It doesn't matter. As long as you are willing to go, nothing else matters." Yang Yushu looked at Li Baili and smiled, looking like a good man.
Li Baili blinked, confirmed that he was not entangled in the puppet line, and said with a smile: "Without further delay, I will go with you now?"
"Okay!" Yang Yushu's eyes lit up, but he still forced himself to remain calm.
"Let's go." Li Baili nodded.
Li Qinglian was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask: "Are you just leaving like this? Without even notifying Changsheng?"
"No need," Li Baili shook her head. "It's not like I won't go back to Demon Island. Why would I specifically notify him? It's as if I'll never go back!"
"At least tell him! Otherwise, how sad he will be. You should go back after the meeting here. He should be looking forward to seeing you go back, right?" Li Qinglian said with a frown.
"Can you tell him for me? Anyway, you have already dealt with things in Penglai, and you should go back to the Demon Island, right? When you go to the Demon Island, can't you just tell him on the way? It will save so much trouble!" Li Baili said with some emotion.
Li Qinglian pursed her lips, feeling a little speechless, and sighed: "I can tell him that it's no big deal if it's just a side trip, but what if he's unhappy?"
Li Baili was a little surprised. She looked at Li Qinglian and said, "I didn't know you cared so much about whether he was happy or not. If he's not happy, then he's not happy. What can you do? You treat him as your own son?"
Li Qinglian was stunned for a moment, and then turned pale with fear: "Don't say such things! I didn't! I am so young, why would I want to raise a son? Especially the son of my enemy!
I don't have as much free time as you, nor do I have such bad tastes as you, so how can I really treat him as my son? I just think it's a bit pitiful that he is being treated as a tool by you at such a young age."
"Then just go and pity him!" Li Baili, who was watching the fun, said with a smile.
"Alright, alright!" Li Qinglian waved his hand impatiently, knowing that he was unwilling to do anything else: "Just go on! I'll let you know if anything happens!"
"Then I'll leave it to you?" Li Baili looked at him and asked.
"Go away!" Li Qinglian just waved.
Li Baili followed Yang Yushu to his manor.
The main body of the manor is a large villa. There is a cemetery behind the villa and a garden in front. The inside of the villa is no different from an ordinary villa. It is clean and has some traces of ordinary people living there.
Li Baili couldn't help but glance at Yang Yushu.
Yang Yushu smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
"Very good." Li Baili looked at it and nodded.
"Do you think it's strange that I have these things here?" Yang Yushu asked again.
Li Baili looked at his portrait hanging on the wall, then looked at the carpet on the floor which seemed to have just been washed, and then looked at the fireplace which still had ashes in it, and she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Just say whatever you want to say!" Yang Yushu urged.
"There's nothing strange about it," Li Baili smiled. "I'm just a little confused. Are those paintings already there or did they appear after you inherited this place?"
Yang Yushu explained: "When there is no owner, the paintings are blank. Whoever is the owner is the one depicted in the portrait. Sometimes there are also paintings of two people."
"Is there a group of three?" Li Baili asked curiously.
"Maybe there is, but I haven't seen it." Yang Yushu smiled. He didn't expect him to ask this, but he answered it anyway.
"Are the things here used frequently?" Li Baili asked tentatively.
"I often use these things," Yang Yushu nodded. "When I'm not out, I use them all the time. I clean them often, sometimes with magic, sometimes with water."
Li Baili nodded and hesitated.
Yang Yushu looked at him for a while, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he smiled and said to him, "Shall I take you underground to have a look? You haven't seen the things that are imprisoned here yet."
"Okay." Li Baili nodded.
Although Yang Yushu talked about the sealed people underground as if he was talking about a landscape, they did look strange in shape and had little to do with the landscape.
