Chapter 98: A new junior brother (please subscribe)

Teleport back.

It is still the underground square of the royal family.

As soon as he walked out of the teleportation array, Chu Ning raised his eyebrows.

"Something's wrong. Why is there spiritual energy here?"

The Liang Dynasty was blocked by a formation, and the spiritual energy was negligible. But now, as soon as he walked out of the teleportation formation, Chu Ning felt the spiritual energy in this underground square.

Although it cannot be compared with the outside world, nor with the inner city of Wenjin City, its spiritual energy has increased several times compared to the original Liang Dynasty.

Chu Ning glanced at the spirit stones on the teleportation array.

The spirit stone contains spiritual energy, but if the spiritual energy in the spirit stone is not absorbed, it will not leak out on its own.

Therefore, there is no possibility of the spiritual energy in the spirit stone leaking.

With doubts, Chu Ning carefully walked out of the ancient well. As soon as he landed on the ground, he could feel that the spiritual energy outside had become a little richer.

There is only one reason to explain this situation: the blockade of the Liang Dynasty was lifted? I have only been gone for a year, what big thing happened in the Liang Dynasty?

After leaving the palace, Chu Ning went to the Chen family's mansion in the capital, but Chen Jingwu was not there. Also, when he went to the Huang Mansion, he did not see Huang Xuan.

Finally, Chu Ning went to the Li family.

The Li family's Hundred Battles Arena had been dismantled. After Chu Ning reported his name, a member of the Li family soon led him to the inner courtyard.

"Master Ji."

Li He, who was lying in a wheelchair, saw Chu Ning appear, his eyes lit up, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect to see Master Ji again. I am already a useless person."

Seeing Master Ji again, Li He was shocked. The true energy in Master Ji... oh no, now we should say it's spiritual energy, it's so rich.

This is no longer an ordinary master, he is probably only one step away from being a grand master.

Although the outside world has now changed the term "grandmaster" to a person who is in the late stage of Qi Condensation, people like Li He are still accustomed to calling him "grandmaster".

"What happened? I have been in seclusion for more than a year, so I don't know much about the changes in the outside world."

Li He was not surprised to hear Chu Ning's words. A year ago, the royal family and the four major sects had fought a war, so it was normal for Master Ji to choose to practice in seclusion and stay away from the war.

"Master Ji, do you know that our world was originally blocked by someone? In fact, there are many immortal cultivation sects in the outside world..."

Li He told Chu Ning what had happened in the past year. The changes started seven months ago.

Seven months ago, the blockade formation of Emperor Taizu of the Liang Dynasty was broken by someone.

It was a coincidence that the two Nascent Soul masters broke the formation. They didn't come specifically to break the seal, but the two Nascent Soul masters fought each other so hard that their residual power slightly affected him.

The formation of a powerful late Jindan master is so vulnerable in the hands of a Yuanying master.

The two Nascent Soul masters didn't even stop for a moment, and it was only later that cultivators from the outside world came in and informed them of this.

"That's fine. Sometimes, human calculations are not as good as God's. Even if you calculate so carefully, it can't beat an unexpected event."

"What about the back?"

"Later, immortal cultivation sects from the outside world began to come in. These sects all had great masters. As for the original four major sects, almost all of them disappeared."

"Wushuang Sect was destroyed, Jiuxuan Pavilion chose to join and merge with a sect from the outside world, Canglang Villa was the same, and the entire Yinyue Sect moved. It is said that they went to their parent sect."

Chu Ning lowered his eyes. He had heard Tang Ruowei say that once the seal was lifted, the Hidden Moon Sect would relocate.

This is the right path. Unless you choose to give up your original territory, you will inevitably be suppressed and eroded by external sects.

"Compared to that, the Eight Great Families are better off because they are all from the same family. There is no need to compete with these outside sects for disciples. All they have to do is give up their territory."

“That’s the truth.”

Chu Ning felt relieved. It seemed that nothing serious had happened to the teachers.

However, after listening to Li He's introduction, it seems that the sects near the Liang Dynasty are not that strong. At most, they are just foundation-building masters. You should know that Wenjin City has several golden elixir masters.

"Isn't it said that there is a very powerful Nine Yin Sect in the outside world?"

"The Jiuyin Sect was destroyed by a Nascent Soul expert two hundred years ago."

Chu Ning was stunned. His imaginary enemy was gone.

It turns out that as long as you hold on long enough, the enemy may be defeated.

After understanding everything, Chu Ning asked Li He, "Were you beaten by someone?"

He owed the Li family a favor, although the agreement was that if the Li family had a strong person who could become a master, he would help.

But if the Li family wants to use it at this time, it is not impossible.

"Someone has set his sights on our Li family's territory. The other party is from the outside world and is a family with a master master in charge."

Li He smiled bitterly, and then continued: "However, my Li family has decided to temporarily withdraw from the capital. In fact, many families in the capital have made the same choice as my Li family."

"Well, it would be wise to withdraw for now."

Chu Ning also approved of the decision made by the Li family. A master-level warrior was nothing, but in the current situation, the other party represented external forces, and if one was not careful, it would easily turn into a battle between the original forces of the Liang Dynasty and external forces.

"When are you going to leave?"

"tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll stay at the Li family's for a day, and we'll leave the city together tomorrow."

Li He's eyes lit up when he heard Chu Ning's words, and a look of gratitude appeared on his old face. He knew that this was Chu Ning's way of protecting their Li family.

The next day.

The sky is clear.

The common people in the capital city still live their lives as usual, but they no longer talk about warriors but about monks now.

A convoy of horse-drawn carriages slowly drove out of the capital.

The Li family is a large family with hundreds of members, plus some property. If all of it were transported away, the team would be several miles long.

But Li He asked his clansmen to sell most of their property, so their caravan was just like any other caravan.

The Li family looked back at the city gate with some reluctance, especially the women and children. Their memories were all left in this city, and now they were considered to have left their hometown.

"Don't be discouraged, everyone. Sooner or later, our Li family will come back. But don't forget that my sister has gone to the immortal cultivation sect."

Seeing the dejected expressions of her clansmen, Li Fei quickly encouraged everyone. Her words also boosted the morale of the Li family.

Yes, there is still hope for their Li family.

The youngest generation of the Li family, Li Fei's sister Li Tong, was noticed by a powerful person in the late Qi Condensation stage for her talent after the seal was lifted and was brought to the sect.

If you are lucky and pass the assessment, you can become a disciple of a sect of immortal cultivation.

However, the sect was far away from them, and the senior was just passing by. Therefore, the news that the Li family was bullied had not yet reached Li Tong.

Moreover, Li He did not allow Li Fei or other members of the tribe to write to Li Tong, for fear of disturbing Li Tong's practice.

With Li Tong's current strength, it would be useless even if he came back. Besides, the sect where Li Tong is located is so far away from here. If Li Tong uses the sect to exert pressure, it might cause dissatisfaction among the surrounding sects.

It is normal for a large family to have ups and downs. As long as there is hope in future generations, the family will not break up.

Chu Ning and Li He were riding in the same carriage. Listening to Li Fei's words outside the carriage, Chu Ning also smiled and said, "Sometimes difficulties can inspire people to grow."

He had dealt with this girl, Li Fei, when he first signed up for the Hundred Battles Arena. She had the pampered and realistic nature of a girl from an aristocratic family.

Generally, this type of young people are most likely to suffer setbacks and become anxious and worried when their family background declines.

From this point of view, Li Fei made him look at her with new eyes.

"Who says it's not? This is a test for the young people of our Li family. A wider world has emerged. Only those who can withstand this test will be able to hold up the banner of the Li family in the future."

Li He agreed with Chu Ning's idea, but he was a little curious about how old this Mr. Ji was. This kind of cognition and knowledge could not be expressed without sufficient experience.

However, since it concerns Master Ji's secret, Li He would not ask rashly.

Seeing that the convoy could no longer see Jing Cheng behind them, Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and said to Li He, "There are some followers behind us. I'll send them here."

Li He was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would really suppress their Li family to such an extent. Forcing them to leave the capital was not enough. Did they want to kill them all? "Master Ji..."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"No need to say polite words, the other party is just a few small characters, if there are really powerful ones, I will turn around and leave."

Chu Ning stopped Li He from saying the next thing, lifted the car curtain, lightly stepped on the car, and rushed back like an eagle.

This scene shocked some members of the Li family. They didn't know what was going on and there was some chaos in the team.

"The team continues to move forward."

Li He's voice came from the carriage, and the convoy regained stability.

…

Several miles away from the convoy, a dozen monks were approaching quickly, but when they appeared on the official road through the woods, the leader stopped, shouted to his companions, and his eyes fell on a figure in front.

"The Zhou family cultivator has met you, Senior. I wonder if you are here?"

Zhou Guangsui's eyes were alert. On the way they were about to hunt down the Li family, a late-stage Qi Condensation expert appeared. Was it such a coincidence? He introduced himself first, telling this late-stage Qi Condensation expert that they also had an elder of the late-stage Qi Condensation behind them.

"It's cold and the roads are slippery. The road ahead is difficult to walk on. I advise you to go back." Ji Yang said lightly.

"What is the relationship between the senior and the Li family?"

After confirming that the other party was indeed related to the Li family, Zhou Guangsui felt a sinking feeling in his heart, but he believed that this person was not a member of the Li family, otherwise the Li family would not have left the capital in such a disgrace.

"I owe the Li family a favor. I wonder if your Zhou family will give me a chance to repay this favor?"

Although the words were plain, Zhou Guangsui felt the pressure, which was even greater than the pressure given to him by the head of the family.

In other words, this senior’s strength may be above that of the patriarch.

"Since Senior has spoken, my Zhou family will definitely give this face. I just don't know if Senior wants to resolve it or not?"

To resolve means to take charge of resolving the grievances between the Zhou family and the Li family.

"You are not allowed to attack the Zhou family within ten years. After ten years, the old lady's relationship will be over, and you two families can do as you please."

Chu Ning naturally would not do anything to resolve the feud between the two families. Protecting the Li family for ten years would be considered as repaying the favor.

And for the Zhou family, ten years is not unacceptable. Ten years is not enough time for a generation to grow to the late stage of Qi Condensation.

"Okay, I will inform the Patriarch, and I won't bother you anymore."

Zhou Guangsui happily left with his men. Chu Ning looked up to this man, but was not surprised by Zhou Guangsui's final decision.

The thinking of family cultivators is different from that of individual cultivators. When family cultivators deal with problems, they often consider things from the perspective of the entire family.

The Zhou family knew clearly what to choose: let the Li family go for ten years, or make enemies with a powerful late-stage Qi Condensation expert.

After the Zhou family left, Chu Ning did not return the same way, but chose another direction and headed to Raozhou.

Raozhou Prefecture is still the Chen family's territory.

After all, the Chen family also has four elders in the late Qi Condensation stage.

Chu Ning did not hide his level of attainment. When he entered the city, the soldiers guarding the city looked at him with trepidation.

After entering the city, Chu Ning went directly to his teacher's home. The teacher had already resigned from the post of chief of Daning County and was now living in the provincial capital with his wife.

But when he arrived at the teacher's house, Chu Ning's expression became strange, and he pushed the door open after a long while.

When the door opened, Liu Junshan was seen frantically coaxing the baby in his arms, while his master's wife Chen Jingyi was lying on a rattan chair beside him, watching with a smile.

Hearing the noise, the couple looked over.

"Chun Ning!"

The couple were very excited to see Chu Ning. Chu Ning scratched his head and said, "Teacher, you gave me a big surprise. I have only been in seclusion for a year, and you have found a little junior brother for me?"

For Chu Ning, this was indeed a surprise. The teacher and his wife were not young anymore. Fortunately, his wife was also a cultivator, otherwise, an ordinary person of her age would be considered an extremely elderly pregnant woman.

Chu Ning took the baby from the teacher's hands with a smile. The miraculous thing was that the baby, who was crying originally, suddenly stopped crying in his hands.

"It seems that our Ji'an still likes his senior brother." Chen Jingyi said with a smile.

Liu Junshan felt humiliated, but there was nothing he could do in the face of this disobedient son. His son was very quiet no matter who he reported to, but he would cry when he reported to himself.

Because of this, he was often ridiculed by Chen Jingwu, who would use this as an opportunity to mock him every time he came.

"Well, you two, master and disciple, haven't seen each other for so long, you must have something to talk about, give me the child."

Chen Jingyi took the child, and Chu Ning followed Liu Junshan into the room.

"What realm are you in now?"

"It's not far from the foundation building stage. To be more precise, it's the great perfection of Qi Condensation."

Chu Ning did not hide anything from his teacher. Liu Junshan's mouth twitched. He knew that his disciple was practicing fast, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

When Chen Jingwu told him that it was Chu Ning who killed Huang Zhongtai and the Huang family's eldest elder, he was a little bit unconvinced.

"It seems that you need to prepare for foundation building. I heard that foundation building requires foundation building pills. At your age, you don't need to rush into this matter... Never mind. You are more stable than me in this regard. You don't need me to teach you as a teacher."

Liu Junshan stopped talking halfway through.

In terms of stability, I learned it from Chu Ning, so Chu Ning doesn't need me to remind him in this regard.

“Teachers still need to remind us more often, so that young people won’t forget their original intentions when they become successful.” Chu Ning said with a smile.

"Teacher, I will keep these words to teach Ji'an in the future."

Liu Junshan knew that this was Chu Ning taking care of his face as a teacher. His disciple was so outstanding that as a teacher he felt proud but also a little embarrassed.

There is nothing left to teach.

"Three months ago, Tang Ruowei came to ask about your whereabouts. Unfortunately, the teacher couldn't give her an answer, and then she left a letter."

Liu Junshan took out a letter from the drawer in the room and threw it to Chu Ning.
