Chapter 343
Seeing Zhan Chun dressed as a Confucian scholar, with neatly groomed eyebrows and a majestic demeanor, Li Yu felt even more disgusted. In comparison, the pot-bellied and unkempt Gongshu Buer was more pleasing to the eye.
Li Yong and Li Hu stood neatly behind Gong Shu Buyer. When they saw Li Yu walking into the hall, Li Hu grinned at him and nodded, but Li Yong looked at Li Yu up and down with an unhappy expression.
"Friend Daoist Li!"
Gongshu Buer stood up and bowed his hands to Li Yu, looking a little embarrassed.
Old man Zhan Chunque was sitting on the ground in a chair, with no intention of saying hello to Li Yu. He seemed to be waiting for Li Yu to salute him.
The one who accompanied him in the hall was the elder on duty, Taoist Jackdaw. As for the city lord Li Ao, the great elder Lu Fang and other Purple Star elders did not show up.
The cultivators in Scarlet Blood City all have resentment in their hearts. Everyone thinks that the Qi Ling Sect is repaying kindness by cutting off the financial path of Scarlet Blood City, but their current strength is not enough to fall out with the Qi Ling Sect.
Li Ao is because the Li family has good relations with Duan Wenhao, Qian Henian, Gongshu Buer, Gongshu Chang and other Qi Lingzong Yinxing and Zixing elders. These people have helped the Li family in the past and don't want to quarrel with each other.
That's why no confrontational strategy was adopted.
"Senior, you're welcome, please sit down!"
Li Yu returned the gift to Gong Shu Bu Er with a smile on his face. He looked around and found that Taoist Jackdaw had specially reserved the main seat for himself. He walked over to the main seat and sat down unceremoniously.
If Zhan Chun didn't say hello to him, he would naturally not take the initiative to say hello.
Since Duan Wenhao can't be invited, he is no longer prepared to show mercy to the other party in today's negotiation.
"Tell me, where did Scarlet Blood City offend Qi Ling Sect!"
Li Yu got straight to the point and looked at Zhan Chun.
Seeing Li Yu's careless look, Zhan Chun was filled with anger. The head of a dignified sect and the controller of the three southern counties entered the Scarlet Blood City. He was not even qualified to go to the main peak and was placed in the Crimson Blood City.
He entered the small reception hall on the edge of the city wall and was left out for more than an hour. The reason Iron Monkey gave was that Li Yu was sleeping and could not be disturbed. This was simply too much of a lie.
The anger in my heart was too strong, and I was worried about my face. I didn't want to have a direct fight with Li Yu, a young cultivator, so I simply kept silent and drank boring tea.
Seeing this scene, Gong Shu Bu Er looked even more embarrassed. He could not answer Li Yu's question.
Back then, the disciples of the Qi Ling Sect were in a dilemma of life and death on Falling Star Island, and it was Li Yu who came to the rescue; during the Qingzhou War, the Qi Ling Sect was in danger, and it was he who asked Li Yu for a plan, and the Qi Ling Sect finally overcame the difficulties; the Divine Arm Crossbow
, the patent rights for crossbows and chainmails were obtained through hard work from Li Yu, and he also obtained the advice on the Qi Ling Sect's specialty store from Li Yu... Qi Ling Sect owes a lot to Li Yu.
Li Yong's face became more gloomy, and he raised his eyebrows and scolded: "Lao Qi, what's your attitude? Why don't you come and see Master Zhan quickly!"
He had been waiting for more than an hour, and the longer he waited, the more embarrassed he became. He was already furious. He just felt that Li Yu and Scarlet Blood City were so rude and made him lose face.
"Did I invite you? Get out!"
Li Yu's face turned cold.
"you……"
Li Yong pointed at Li Yu, his chest heaving with anger. He didn't expect that Li Yu would ask him to get out. This kind of humiliation... he had never encountered before.
Gongshu Bu'er's face looked a little more embarrassed. He didn't even save his own face. He was trying to drive away Li Yong. He clearly wanted to drive them away. Think about it, Li Yu invited Duan.
Wen Hao is not them, so why should he give them face?
As for his identity, Li Yu is a disciple of Lu Fanghe, the secret master of Yunxiao Pavilion, and he has the same status as them when he walks outside. What's more, this is Scarlet Blood City, Li Yu's city!
Li Hu couldn't help but glare at Li Yong, wanting to go up and kick him. This guy never knows which side he should be on and deserves to be scolded. For more than a year, he has been resentful in his heart. Qi Lingzong is too bullying.
.
"Why, do you want Tie to take action?"
Iron Monkey looked at Li Yong with an unkind expression.
Li Yong's heart tightened. He looked at Zhan Chun, then at Gongshu Buer, and then at Taoist Jackdaw. No one stood up for him. He wanted to reply to Iron Monkey, but he didn't dare. He snorted coldly,
He walked out of the hall with a livid face.
Li Hu hesitated for a moment, followed quickly, and closed the palace door. He felt that he was embarrassed and passive standing here, so it was better to stay away.
"Master Zhan, has our Scarlet Blood City ever offended the Qi Ling Sect?"
Li Yu glanced at Zhan Chun and asked again.
“One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers!”
Zhan Chun said in a deep voice.
The development momentum of Scarlet Blood City is so strong that the cultivators of the Qi Ling Sect feel threatened. In the land of three counties, Scarlet Blood City has opened Li family shops in more than 20 cities, and more than 20 small sects and small sects have opened in Scarlet Blood City.
After forming an alliance, the business is booming. Although they are selling farm tools, they are also purchasing spiritual minerals. As a result, Scarlet Blood City has accumulated a large amount of spiritual minerals and harvested a large amount of gold and silver coins. The Scarlet Blood City Artifact Refining Hall is not weak. Once the Li Family Shop starts selling
The business of Magical Instruments and Qi Ling Sect will be greatly affected.
The Qi Ling Sect has opened three specialty stores in the three southern counties. Qingjiang City has the best business, with an annual profit of tens of millions of spirit stones, which is the combined number of the other two, while Scarlet Blood City provides half of it in the name of the Li family.
goods, accounting for half of the profits.
The affairs of the Qi Ling Sect are managed by a group of Purple Star elders. The profits cannot be taken advantage of by the Purple Star elders. Except for Gongshu Buer and Gongshu Chang, there are only a few people who have good relations with the Li family.
The elders were not familiar with the Li family, and everyone was jealous and resentful. Why could a bunch of rabble get this profit but not them?
In these three southern counties, does Qi Lingzong have the final say, or does Scarlet Blood City have the final say?
Everyone expressed their opinions that Scarlet Blood City cannot be allowed to develop like this, and Scarlet Blood City cannot be allowed to participate in the Qingjiang City specialty store. The production capacity of the Refining Hall is strong enough, and Scarlet Blood City does not need to participate.
Everyone went to Zhan Chun to make trouble. As the leader, Zhan Chun could not offend all the Purple Star elders, but he was afraid of the friendship between Duan Wenhao, Qian Henian and Li Yu, so he never dared to go out of his way.
The city starts.
Now Duan Wenhao is in seclusion and wants to hit the Silver Star Level 5 bottleneck. He doesn't know when he will be able to come out of seclusion. Qian Henian is also in seclusion and has always ignored the trivial matters of the sect. Zhan Chun suddenly became interested.
There is news that Li Yu offended many powerful forces and was forced to leave the mountain to travel. However, Li Yu did not repent and ran to destroy the mountain gate of the Palace of Beasts. He was hunted down. No one knows when Li Yu will return to the mountain and whether he can.
Come back alive.
Scarlet Blood City without Li Yu, what are you afraid of?
As a result, Li Yu returned to the mountain!
"Since one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, let's start a war!"
The other party has made his attitude clear, so Li Yu has no worries anymore.
In order to avoid the fear of the Qi Ling Sect, Scarlet Blood City did not recruit disciples from the three southern counties. Instead, it recruited disciples from its partners, a group of small and medium-sized families. Afraid of conflicts with the Qi Ling Sect, Scarlet Blood City opened several schools in Qingzhou.
There are ten Li family shops, but they never sell magical artifacts, clocks, or divine arm crossbows. In the past three years, apart from supplying Qingjiang City artifacts to the Lingzong specialty store, Scarlet Blood City has only sold two batches of magical artifacts, one batch
It was Li Yu who took it away for sale, and a batch was exchanged for the Nangong Family for sale in Yunzhou.
As for when Duan Wenhao brought people to live in the Li family and helped the Li family, the two parties were mutually beneficial. Duan Wenhao and the cultivators of the Qi Ling Sect received far more benefits from the Li family than they gave to the Li family. After all, at that time,
Liu Changfeng lives in the Li family. Without Duan Wenhao, the Li family can still survive the difficulties.
Scarlet Blood City has only kindness and no hatred towards Qi Ling Sect, but in exchange for all this, Qi Ling Sect suppressed them.
Anger boiled in his heart, and he said to Taoist Jackdaw on one side: "Be prepared, the Li family's shop will sell all magical weapons, and send people to renovate the Li family's shop in Qingjiang City. All the goods sold in the Qi Ling Sect's specialty store, the number of the Li's shop
If you want more, the price will always be 10% lower. If someone comes to harass you, fight back. If you dare to kill my Scarlet Blood City disciples, I will pay you back ten times!"
For a moment, he couldn't figure out whether the Silver Star elders of the Qi Ling Sect were mentally retarded. Such a good partner in Scarlet Blood City could actually turn them into enemies. Such a thing was really strange, but Zhan Chun, as the leader,
, saying that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and a battle is inevitable.
In this case, let's first squeeze out the Qi Ling Sect's three stores in the three southern counties and cut off the Qi Ling Sect's financial path. The sales method of this store and the most profitable magic weapon in the store have been his efforts.
, he did not allow the enemy to use his hard work to defeat him.
He did not believe that the Qi Ling Sect dared to attack Scarlet Blood City with all their troops. Even if they all came out, he would not be afraid. In the past three years, Scarlet Blood City had added many Purple Star elders, doubled the number of Scarlet Star monks, and added dozens of defensive formations.
On the throne, various crossbows have been updated, and the attack power has been increased by several levels. Under the volley of crossbows, no one from the Purple Star monks can attack the city. The Silver Star monks will also be in danger of their lives if they attack by force. As for a small group with less than a thousand people,
In a large-scale battle, he has complete confidence in the disciples of Scarlet Blood City.
After fighting for a few times, the Qi Ling Sect knew it was painful and became honest.
I just felt a little regretful that my friendship with Duan Wenhao, Gongshu Buer and others was gone.
He turned around and looked at Gongshu Buer, and then said: "After returning to the mountain, fellow Daoist Gongshu might as well tell the disciples from Scarlet Blood City to withdraw from Qi Ling Sect and return to Scarlet Blood City. Scarlet Blood City can accept them. Otherwise, when we meet on the battlefield,
,Kill without mercy!”
After these words were spoken, there was a dead silence in the hall. Zhan Chun, Taoist Jackdaw, and Gongshu Bu'er didn't all respond. The three of them felt confused in their minds and couldn't keep up with their thinking.
Even Iron Monkey didn't expect that in a few words, Li Yu had already set the tone for the two major forces, and they immediately turned against each other.
The words "Kill without mercy" alerted Gongshu Buer, who suddenly stood up, waved his hand towards Li Yu, and said with a solemn expression: "What Senior Brother Zhan said does not represent the Qi Ling Sect, the four Supreme Elders
I am currently in retreat. I have to go back to the sect to consult the Grand Elder and Uncle Duan about this matter and ask them to make a decision!"
"This... Fellow Daoist Li has misunderstood. I have no intention of starting a war with Scarlet Blood City!"
Zhan Chun was anxious.
Li Yu forcefully invited Duan Wenhao to come, and after giving him three days, he was already ready to fall out. He was already a little unsure. The other Purple Star elders didn't know the importance of Li Yu, but he knew that Yaoxian Valley,
Yunxiao Pavilion and the Nangong family all have good relations with Scarlet Blood City because of Li Yu. With Li Yu here, Scarlet Blood City will not fall.
I specially brought along Gongshu Buer, and also brought along Li Yong and Li Hu brothers, just because they were afraid that they would have some buffer when Li Yu fell out.
"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain" was not only his thought, but also the thought of all the Purple Star elders of Qi Ling Sect. But when he told the truth at this time, firstly, he was angry and felt uncomfortable because of Li Yu's aggressiveness. Secondly,
The purpose is to scare Li Yu so that he can bargain, settle the profit sharing in the specialty store, and restrain Scarlet Blood City's expansion ambitions.
As a result, Li Yu had no intention of bargaining with him and was about to start a war.
