More than ten days later, the newly selected saint was announced, and Su Yun was indeed among them. Although she had already expected it, she still felt an indescribable feeling when she saw her away.
The morning after she left, Tang Ping'er, the butler, came over with a worried look on his face and told Lin Haoming that Li Mao had died.
Lin Haoming was also shocked when he heard this news. Li Mao had rotated the front line twice over the years. This was the third time, but he didn't expect that he would never come back.
"When is the news?" Lin Haoming asked.
"The news came last night. Li Wei and Miss Ying came early in the morning. I arranged for them to be in the inner hall!" Tang Ping'er said.
Lin Haoming immediately rushed to the inner hall and saw that Li Yufei was already there, and seemed to be comforting Li Ying.
"Master!" Li Ying saw the back and bit her lower lip and screamed.
Lin Haoming walked over and patted her shoulder, and said softly: "I know, this is an extraordinary time, you have to hold on."
Li Ying nodded vigorously.
Lin Haoming looked back at Li Wei and asked, "What's the situation of the Li family now?"
"In the past three hundred years, my elder brother wants to train his successors. Unfortunately, there is no outstanding among the younger generations of the Li family, so he can only follow the previous plan and let Yingying take over the position of head of the family!" Li Wei said.
Lin Haoming nodded after hearing this and said, "For more than three hundred years, Yingying has been stepping up her cultivation. Now she has advanced to the Four Mysteries. Although she has relied on some medicines and her foundation is not very stable, at least she has a cultivation level and is reasonable to be promoted. What are the oppositions in the clan?"
"The news of my elder brother's death came last night, but I guess my uncle had known it for a long time. He would probably recommend one of my cousins ​​to take over the throne. He had been entangled with the people of the Presbyterian Church for a long time. If he really allowed him to succeed to the throne, the Li family would probably become a pawn of the Presbyterian Church!" Li Wei said disdainfully.
"Your cousin? What's the origin?" Lin Haoming asked.
"His name is Li Wang, and he also has the cultivation level of Jiuxuan. Or the only person in our Li family has reached Jiuxuan's cultivation level except for the eldest brother. Otherwise, the eldest brother would not have made any trouble at the beginning." Li Wei said.
"Preventist Li just told me a rough idea before. Now that something has happened, let me explain the situation of the Li family more clearly!" Lin Haoming continued.
"In general, there are four teams with strength, of which are ours, of course, but many of them are the strongest. Now that my elder brother has left, the single-wheel power is the strongest in the group where Li Yong is located. Our Li family can be traced back to my grandfather's generation. He was not from the Saint City in his early years. Until he was lucky enough to follow a Saint City, he eventually became the guardian of the Saint City, and then settled in the Saint City. After that, my grandfather had seven sons, except for one of whom died early, there were six left. My eldest brother and I were not the eldest son, but the second son. However, because my six children were not successful, and my eldest brother was very outstanding, so when my grandfather's life expectancy was about to end, I made my eldest brother the first to be the first son.
The head of the family, my elder brother was very outstanding before, so he could suppress others, but each family felt a little dissatisfied, especially the grandfather passed the throne from generation to generation. However, the elder brother was in the past, and although each family was dissatisfied, he could only obey. Now the elder brother has fallen, and Li Ying's father was originally the highest cultivation among the seven grandfathers and had the realm of Zhongxuan. He has always been worried about the head of the family that did not pass the throne to him. His son is now the strongest in the family, and he may have to work hard to get this position. Especially our father also fell nearly a thousand years ago. In name, this uncle is already the highest-ranking in the clan, so he naturally has to fight for it." Li Wei explained carefully.
"What about the others except Li Ying? Are there four teams not weak?" Lin Haoming asked.
"There are two more, namely the Sixth Uncle and the Seventh Uncle. Li Ying's father is our fourth uncle. The other uncles and our father are no longer there. The Sixth Uncle and Seventh Uncle also have the cultivation of Xuansheng. However, they were originally relatively young, and there were no outstanding among the younger generations, so they would not come out to fight, but they valued interests very much. If Li Ying promised that they value profits, they would most likely not support Yingying." Li Wei continued to explain.
"Didn't your elder brother leave any preparations?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Of course there is this. Before my elder brother goes to war, he leaves a handwritten book to pass the throne!" Li Wei said as he took out this handwritten book written in silk cloth from his arms, which clearly stated that if he had an accident, the head of the Li family would pass the throne to Li Ying.
This handwritten book is written in a characteristic silk cloth, and it is not used ink on it, but Li Mao wrote directly with his own essence and blood. This is something that others cannot impersonate and is also the best proof.
Lin Haoming also understood why Li Mao had to ask himself to support Yingying, because what he needed was not a reason, but a strong force to support him.
"Okay, as long as you have this handbook, I can come forward. Don't worry, the fall of the Dharma Protector Li, you will go back and make the funeral. If anyone wants to ignore the Dharma Protector Li's will, I will make him look good!" Lin Haoming said.
"Thank you, Master Lin!" When Li Wei heard this, although he knew that this was the arrangement of the elder brother, he was still relieved.
"Master, I..." Li Ying looked at Lin Haoming, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak.
"Yingying, you have something to say!" Seeing this, Lin Haoming gave her some encouragement.
Li Ying then plucked up the courage and said, "Master, I want to be the guest elder of the Li family directly!"
"Does the Li family have such a position?" Lin Haoming asked.
"No, but some families do exist. I am afraid that if you do this, you will bring you some bad reputations. Some people will say that the master will take advantage of me as a disciple to occupy the resources of the Li family." Li Ying said worriedly.
"Famousness! What is reputation? I am adhering to justice for Li Mao and supporting my disciples. Even if someone really wants to say it, let him say go, what am I afraid of!" Lin Haoming turned the railway decisively.
Hearing this, Li Ying also showed an excited look. "Master, it is my lifelong luck to be my teacher in Li Ying!"
"You girl, in the future, you can't be so affectionate. A family mainly has the confidence and courage of a head of the family. Yingying, you must remember that the head of the family mainly values ​​profit but rather reputation. Although your grandfather has a lower cultivation level, he is relatively steady in dealing with people. Listen to his opinions more. If there is anything that cannot be solved? Even if you come to me, the master will always be your backer!" Lin Haoming explained earnestly, pressing her shoulders.
