"You said I'm from the Qingyun Li family?"
Although he had heard sayings like 'all Li families in the world are successful' and 'all Li families in the world are one family', he did not take them seriously.
The Qingshan Town Li family looked like a large, ordinary family. They only rose to the status of a noble family because of Li Yu. They were so ordinary, how could they possibly be the Qingyun Li family?
Although he did not travel outside Qingshan Town, he was well-read and naturally knew that the Qingyun Li family was a famous super family with many geniuses in the family.
He had studied the family tree and found that apart from the three of them, the Qingshan Town Li family hadn't produced any cultivation geniuses in the past thousand years. This was completely different from the records of the Qingyun Li family.
"I don't know the specifics, but one thing I can confirm is that your Qingshan Town Li family is one of the thirty-six direct descendants."
Over tens of thousands of years, the Qingyun Li family has split into countless clans due to the family division system. For this reason, the Qingyun Li family has specially developed a family lineage chart.
Direct veins, side veins, branch veins, leaf veins.
Only those in the direct lineage who had produced Sword Saints were eligible. The side lineages had produced Sword Emperors, the branch lineages had produced Sword Masters, the leaf lineages had produced Sword Masters, and the micro lineages had produced Swordsmen. The majority of ordinary people in the Li family were not considered worthy and were no longer recorded.
"Direct bloodline? How is that possible? Which branch is it? Could it be the lineage of the legendary reclusive Sword Saint Li Qing?" He Lin remembered that the thirty-six direct bloodlines were all in Qingyun Mountain. They were wealthy and powerful, and their traces could be found. It was only when Sword Saint Li Qing, one of the four heroes a thousand years ago, liked to play mysterious and hid his bloodline, that He Lin joked. However, after he finished speaking, seeing Wu Yi's reaction and his own reasoning, He Lin couldn't laugh at the joke anymore.
"Is it really Sword Saint Li Qing?"
"Yes."
"What on earth is going on?"
The legend of the Four Heroes of a thousand years ago is widely circulated among the people, the most famous of whom is the Sword Saint Li Qing of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
Legend has it that thousands of years ago, a demonic disaster raged, and it seemed like the end of the world, and four heroes suddenly appeared!
Then the Sword Sect opened up its inheritance and intervened in the secular world. Then the demonic disaster was destroyed and the aristocratic families emerged. This is how the world became what it is today.
Today’s wealthy and powerful families are a cancer, but thousands of years ago they were demon-slaying heroes.
Even though the aristocratic families have become corrupt now, they still have a very upright stance when it comes to exorcising demons. If a demon cultivator is found, they will immediately purge the family and expel him from the clan without mercy.
These are just secular legends and current realities. As for the specific circumstances at the time, we don’t know.
Wu Yi saw that Li Feng wanted to know the secrets of a thousand years ago, and thought that Li Feng was also from one of the four major families, and was also the direct descendant of Qingyun, so he was qualified to know. So he said
"It happened thousands of years ago, but for us, a family with a history of tens of thousands of years, it seems like it just happened a short time ago.
"Among the four heroes from a thousand years ago, I wonder if you've noticed that none of us, the Xuanwu Wu clan, are among them."
It is true. The two sects of the Bishui Sword Sect have always had an election system for small and medium-sized island masters. The four heroes of that year were all the masters of the four sects, and naturally they were not members of the Wu family.
"But our Wu family participated in all the major events and made outstanding contributions, but it was not known to outsiders."
Speaking of this, Wu Yi's face was filled with pride. It was the honor and pride of his family. This was common in every world, for example, the knight families on the Wizarding Continent also valued their family very much.
"Thousands of years ago, the leader of the Jade Water Sword Sect, Sun Miao, was just like you. He found a promising talent from among the ordinary people within the sphere of influence of the other three sword sects on the continent. This has been our Jade Water Sword Sect's tradition for tens of thousands of years."
A good tradition, absorbing talents from ordinary people across the continent to nourish one's own sword sect.
"The person who was searching was the elder who was specifically responsible for this matter. Unlike Ji Taishang who directly accepted the genius as a disciple, the genius found would be redistributed within the sect. Sun Miao's talent was the Sword Intention Seed, and he was assigned to a small island.
Unexpectedly, Sun Miao's talent was exceptional. Twenty years later, he ascended to the rank of Sword Emperor and, at the age of thirty, assumed the position of leader of the Bishui Sword Sect. A truly remarkable moment. That same year, Lin Yang of the Tianshan Sword Sect assumed the position of leader. Within two years, the Qingyun Sword Sect and the Huohai Sword Sect had both changed their leaders. Li Qing and Su Mu stepped onto the world stage.
Sun Miao was born in the Tianshan Sword Sect's sphere of influence and was actually a childhood friend of Lin Yang. So two years later, after the other two new Sword Sects succeeded to power, they called for a meeting of the four sects to deal with the demonic disaster.
The demonic disaster back then was truly doomsday-like. Sun Miao, who came from an ordinary family, felt it the most deeply. Although the other three came from prominent families, they had all experienced worldly life and understood the severity of the demonic disaster in the secular world. They also had some ideas and agreed.
The first meeting of the four groups was not ideal! Each of them was a brilliant individual with their own ideas, and therefore held their own opinions. Ultimately, they decided to conduct their own trials first, then make a final decision after three years to see the results.
This proposal was put forward by Su Mu, and he had evil intentions! Of the four proposals at the time, Sun Miao's proposal was the school system. This system could be said to be cutting off the foundation of the aristocratic families. However, this system is a long-term system. Without ten years, there will be no results. Everyone knew this at the time, but among the four clan leaders, three came from the four major families and naturally protected the interests of the aristocratic families.
Even Li Qing only spoke a fair word at the time and didn't insist. In the end, the proposal to increase the number of aristocratic families passed, and the academy system was abolished. However, the other three clan leaders were outstanding people after all, and they understood the excellence of the academy system, so they did a favor and retained the academy system for all of them.
At this point, Wu Yi smiled and shook his head. It can be seen that the Four Heroes are not saints, and they are also very selfish.
This demonic crisis presents both great danger and great opportunity, a chance to openly and honestly meddle in worldly affairs.
"What did the other three propose?" Herling asked.
"Sword Saint Li Qing advocates gathering the Sword Saints of the four sects to form a sword formation to directly kill the source of the demons and eliminate the demonic disaster from the root.
Sword Saint Lin Yang advocates mobilizing the enthusiasm of inner disciples, using family inheritance as a reward, and increasing the number and intensity of killings of demon cultivators.
What Sword Saint Su Mu proposed was a religious system, which would allow the secular world to have firm beliefs, and naturally the inner demons would be eliminated.
"Sword Saint Sun Miao proposed the academy system. It advocates teaching everyone, giving ordinary people hope to cultivate the Way of the Sword, and promoting fairness, equality, and justice! This is how we can eliminate inner demons."
Wu Yi finally shook his head and repeated Sword Saint Sun Miao's proposal.
He Lin understood why. At the time, Sword Saint Sun Miao's ideas were too advanced, a bit too idealistic, and impossible to succeed in that environment. ? : Or search "Remember to remove the "/" when searching, otherwise you won't find anything."
