Li Yan took the time to read more detailed information about the "Blood Lantern Sect" that he subordinated to him, as well as the larger sects under its jurisdiction.
The Donglin family seems to have a good relationship with "Pojunmen", and Li Yan also has memories of the Yuanying monks in his family.
"Donglin Tingyue has been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage for eighty years, and has reached the middle Nascent Soul stage from the early stage all the way. He is the youngest Nascent Soul monk in the Donglin family..."
Some information immediately appeared in Li Yan's mind. Li Yan had always been very careful when encountering monks who were good at controlling beasts.
For such a person, you are not sure what kind of monster she will bring out, what kind of magical power it has, and you cannot judge its combat power by its level.
Monsters are good at fighting across levels. If two Yuanying monks fight, the other monster may display some special innate magical power. If it affects even half of your breath, it may be your death.
Regarding the information about the Yuanying monks in the Donglin family, Li Yan has a relatively deep memory of Donglin Tingyue, because this girl actually only spent eighty years of training to reach the middle stage of Yuanying.
Even in the fairy world, this is the kind of elite disciple whose cultivation qualifications are particularly outstanding, and which makes various sects and families the most delighted and valued.
Of course, when Li Yan judges others, he never considers his own cultivation speed. His cultivation method is so special that it is tailor-made, and the opportunities are always good.
Therefore, in his opinion, this is very different from his own qualifications, and it is just a chance.
After Shangguan Tianque spoke, he did not pause, turned to look at Donglin Tingyue, and continued to introduce.
"Fellow Taoist Tingyue, this is Elder Li Yanli of our sect. I hope that we can get close to each other in the future, and he will come with us in a while, hehehe..."
"I've met Taoist friends!"
As Shangguan Tianque's voice fell, Li Yan looked calm and bowed to the masked and black-robed woman.
However, after hearing Li Yan's name, Donglin Tingyue's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
She didn't expect that the extremely ordinary-looking young man in green shirt in front of her was actually the monk who killed Mang Yan in family news.
The other party's cultivation level is similar to his own, and it is true that a person cannot be judged by his appearance. Think about it, if he were to attack Mangyan by himself, the chance of success would not be more than 20%, and he would definitely have to pay a heavy price.
"I have met Fellow Daoist Li. Fellow Daoist Li is now famous in some sects. It is a great honor for me to meet you today!"
An ethereal voice sounded like an orchid in an empty valley. When this sound entered your ears, you immediately felt happy and relaxed.
Li Yan felt that this complemented the lightness of an antelope on the other person's body, making the woman even more ethereal and elegant.
As Donglin Tingyue spoke, he also gave a slight bow, and at the same time looked at Li Yan a few more times, but Li Yan just smiled and said nothing.
"Let's not be polite here. Don't keep others waiting. Let's go over first and talk later!"
After Shangguan Tianque saw the introduction, he thought about going there earlier...
In another inn in Fang City, Shangguan Tianque and Dong Lin Tingyue were walking side by side, with Li Yan following behind.
Along the way, only occasionally when Shangguan Tianque mentioned him, he would reply lightly, which made Donglin Tingyue gradually understand Li Yan's character.
But the more this happened, the more curious she became. According to the news that the family received, the monk named Li who killed Mang Yan was a physical practitioner with a very explosive personality, and his specific origin was unknown.
News like Li Yan's coming from the lower realms has long been strictly ordered by Shangguan Tianque not to spread outside Banjiang. It was during "Breaking the Military Gate" that , and only the three of them knew Li Yan's origins.
When Donglin Tingyue first saw Li Yan's appearance, with his short hair like a steel needle and his reluctance to talk, she felt that this person must be the kind of person who has been fighting with others for a long time and was extremely cold-hearted.
Although there is a slight gap between this and the information received, it should not be much different. However, after observing along the way, I felt that the other party was not as I imagined.
Although Li Yan doesn't like to talk, every time he speaks, there is no arrogance or coldness in his tone. Instead, he gives people an extremely calm feeling.
When he spoke, he spoke at an unhurried pace. Even if you say that he has a deep understanding of Buddhism, some people will believe him. There is no trace of the fierceness and explosiveness of Youti Xiu.
This made Donglin Tingyue keep thinking, feeling that the information the family received must be wrong. She even thought that this was all the news spread by "Broken Army Gate", and that the other party might be a legal cultivator.
When the three of them entered the inn, Shangguan Tianque and Li Yan walked around the pavilions until they had a cup of tea. Their eyes suddenly darkened, and a tree-lined path appeared in front of them.
.
The forest that appeared here gave people a deep and endless feeling in the night. The moment Li Yan and the others stepped into the tree-lined path, the hustle and bustle that had just existed behind them disappeared in an instant.
The tree-lined path was not long, about a hundred feet long. When the three of them reached the end of the path, Li Yan saw courtyards appearing side by side.
On the walls of these courtyards, every ten feet or so, there is a bright moon stone, which is the size of an adult's fist, inlaid with a bright moon stone. It constantly emits a light yellow light, giving people a faint fragrance and dim light.
Feel.
Shangguan Tianque turned around and walked forward along the path outside the wall. He soon came to a stop in front of a courtyard door and at the same time transmitted the message to Li Yan again.
"This is a courtyard rented by Taoist Shentu from the 'Kaishan Shenniu' clan. He is from the monster beast clan of the 'Tianyao Grassland'. He is much richer than us, hehehe..."
"Are there any monks from the monster clan here?"
Li Yan said in surprise.
"Hehehe, don't forget that there is a 'Sky Demon Grassland'. It seems to have demarcated the area, and the fight with the human monks is very bloody, but all kinds of transactions between the two parties are unimpeded.
In fact, this is not unusual. Are the human clans fighting each other to the death? As long as you are strong here, you can live a very prosperous life.
During the transaction, as long as you don't take out the corpses of the monsters present, they won't care at all."
Shangguan Tianque and Li Yan once again used sound transmission, because through what they said, Donglin Tingyue might be able to guess Li Yan's origin.
When Shangguan Tianque transmitted the message, he already had a magic formula in his hand and hit the courtyard door, and at the same time he looked at Donglin Tingyue.
Soon, the courtyard door opened on its own amid the rolling mist, but no sound came out and no one came out to greet him.
Shangguan Tianque smiled slightly and stepped in. Donglin Tingyue entered at the same time without any hesitation!
It was only then that Li Yan quietly withdrew his consciousness from exploring the surrounding area.
After entering the courtyard, Li Yan saw that the courtyard was not very big, only about ten feet in length. There were two wing rooms on each side, and a hall facing the courtyard door.
But think about it, in a place like Fangshi where land is at a premium, renting a courtyard like this is already a big deal, and then think about yourself
The place where I live is completely different from this place.
At this moment, the hall was brightly lit, and no sound could be heard outside the courtyard, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, some laughter came from behind.
"Fellow Taoist Shangguan and Fairy Tingyue, you are late... Hey, who is this fellow Taoist?"
In the midst of these laughter, a very rough voice came out, but before he finished speaking, there was a sound of surprise.
Shangguan Tianque did not answer immediately, but walked quickly towards the hall. A distance of more than ten feet, the three of them arrived at the door in an instant, and at this time, the talking and laughing in the hall also stopped.
Just when Li Yan and the others appeared at the entrance of the hall, their eyes and consciousness swept over them.
"Fellow Taoists, please rest assured that he is not an outsider. This is Elder Li Yanli of our sect. He has been practicing since he came to Fangshi. There is a gathering today, so he came with him."
Only then did Shangguan Tianque explain that if strangers showed up at a gathering like this, the others would actually dislike it.
Even though Shangguan Tianque said this, it was still a little inappropriate. After all, he didn't say hello to the others, but he had a sense of proportion in his heart.
"Oh, your sect's Li... Yan, is he the fellow Taoist who killed Mang Yan?"
That rough voice still sounded.
Li Yan also saw the scene in the hall clearly at this time. There were seven people sitting in the hall. The aura of each of these people was either strong or vague, which was related to the exercises that each person practiced.
.
There were seven people, two women and five men, and in the middle sat a man as tall as a mountain. The man was bald, about forty years old, and wore a brocade robe that was very tight.
He just shook his body lightly at will, and the muscles on his body were like giant rats, constantly scurrying around under the brocade robe.
Even if he was sitting there, Li Yan felt that he was only a head shorter than him. Once he stood up, even with Li Yan's tall stature, he would probably only be as tall as his chest and abdomen.
"Is this the fellow Taoist Shentu from the 'Founding Mountain Divine Ox' clan?"
Li Yan was stunned. This person gave him a very strong sense of oppression. Looking at this person's aura, he was definitely the kind of terrifying existence that could lift mountains.
Although Li Yan only glanced at it occasionally with his spiritual consciousness, he already discovered that there were extremely strong fluctuations of earth spiritual power outside the opponent's body, which showed that the opponent was a strong earth element.
This type of monk is not only incredibly powerful, but also has one of the best defensive capabilities at the same level. It is also a type of monk that Li Yan does not want to face.
And just as Li Yan glanced at him, several people, including the big man in brocade robes, followed the brocade robed man's words and their eyes fell on Li Yan.
Several people who were a little dissatisfied with Shangguan Tianque's sudden arrival just now were a little surprised after hearing his explanation.
This man in green shirt turned out to be the man who killed Mangyan. Whenever he talked about it in the past few days, Shangguan Tianque would always talk about it, but unexpectedly he brought this man over today.
Of course they didn't know that Li Yan also blew up the body of another Nascent Soul that day, otherwise they would be even more surprised.
"Li Yan has met fellow Taoists. I heard fellow Taoist Shangguan say there was such a gathering before, but I begged him to bring it here. It was really a bit rude. Please don't take it strangely, fellow Taoists."
Li Yan took a step forward at this moment, stood in a row with Shangguan Tianque, and clasped his fists towards the hall.
Shangguan Tianque turned his head slightly and glanced sideways at Li Yan. It was true that he brought Li Yan here just on a temporary basis, but he proposed it himself.
"Hahaha, since we are the same sect as Taoist Fellow Shangguan, Fellow Taoist Shangguan has a good relationship with us. There is no need for Fellow Daoist Li to be polite. Please come in."
After the three of you arrive, the only one missing is Fellow Daoist Liu, I think he will be here soon!"
The big man in brocade robes laughed out loud when he saw Li Yan's acquiescence.
Immediately, Li Yan and the other three entered and sat down on one side while the others were watching.
Later, Shangguan Tianque began to introduce other people to Li Yan. Among the seven people, the big man in brocade robes was a strong man from the "Founding Mountain Divine Ox" clan, Shen Tu Tian Duan, a strong man in the late Nascent Soul stage.
At the same time, Shangguan Tianque would occasionally send messages secretly, telling Li Yan some details.
Although Shen Tu Tian Duan and Shangguan Tian Que are similar in age, as a monster, he still has at least two thousand years left in his life span.
The remaining six people include four human monks, two monsters, one is a strong man from the "Xuanming Ghost Snake" clan, and that is a twenty-something man with a cold face who looks at everyone with a cold expression.
A young man of 6 years old, in the middle stage of Nascent Soul cultivation.
The other one was an unusually tall woman, especially with a slender neck as beautiful as jade and snow. Her legs were even slender. Li Yan felt that Gong Chenying's long legs might not be able to catch up with her.
Later, during Shangguan Tianque's introduction, he found out that the other party was from the "Bingyunhe" clan, but this woman's cultivation level was only at the early stage of Nascent Soul.
But Shangguan Tianque still secretly sent him a message. This clan is extremely good at speed and masters the innate magical power of space. Ordinary Yuan Ying late-stage monks may not be able to beat this woman in speed.
Among the remaining four people, there are actually two casual cultivators. The remaining two are also elders of two third-rate sects, but they are not under the jurisdiction of the "Blood Lantern Sect" and have a good relationship with the "Pojun Sect".
.
Just as a few people were greeting each other, Shentu Tianduan suddenly changed his expression and looked up at the courtyard. At the same time, he gently waved his hand again, and a ray of light shot towards the courtyard door.
In a short time, there was already a Taoist priest in the hall who was extremely handsome and almost as handsome as Shangguan Tianque.
This Taoist priest looks like he is only eighteen or nineteen years old. His skin is fair and thin, and you can even clearly see the veins under his skin.
He has a whisk stuck behind his back, cloud shoes and white socks, three thousand snow silk threads are drifting in the wind, a white jade hairpin is stuck across his bun, and his black hair hangs down behind him.
meaning.
The moment his figure appeared, a pair of eyes swept across the hall. They first paused slightly on Li Yan, a strange color flashed in their eyes, and then fell on Shangguan Tianque.
Shangguan Tianque's expression remained as usual, but he was already secretly transmitting messages to Li Yan quickly.
"This person comes from the 'Qingyang Temple', his name is Liu Huaigu, he is also a late Yuanying monk, and he is extremely skilled in Taoist arts.
I fought with him several times, and I couldn't gain any advantage at all. He even had a slight upper hand and made me injured.
'Qingyang Temple' does not belong to the sect affiliated with the 'Blood Lantern Sect', but they may have a good relationship with the 'Capturing the Dragon Sect', especially the relationship between this person and the second elder of the 'Capturing the Dragon Sect' is not clear, so it is unclear
Our sect is very hostile."
After Li Yan learned about several sects under the "Blood Lantern Sect", he also knew who the second elder of the "Capturing the Dragon Sect" mentioned by Shangguan Tianque was.
It was the enchanting woman he saw after he took off, but Li Yan had not fought with her.
But I also know that he was the one who fought to the end, burned the Nascent Soul to activate the sect-protecting formation, and died together with the "Capturing Dragon Sect".
