"Junior brother, taking over Dongzhou City is not that simple."
People from several major factions left with joy, but Bai Jingyun looked worried afterwards.
Not only him, but also Gu Lie and Gu Sanmei, who persuaded Li Ye to take over Dongzhou City, nodded slightly.
Although Gu Lie has no cultivation now, his foundation is still there. In time, there is no chance that he will reshape his meridians and return to their peak. Even now, Li Ye has prepared a nine-transformation magic elixir for him, but his injury has not healed yet and he cannot
bear.
"Li Ye, although you are the most likely person to replace my Gu family after they disappear, you still need to be careful."
"careful?"
Li Ye frowned slightly.
In his opinion, there are not many people in Dongzhou City who can threaten him.
It would be good if he didn't take the initiative to seek revenge. Would anyone dare to stop him?
Seeing his confusion, Gu Lie smiled bitterly.
However, Gu Sanmei said, "Dongzhou has undergone many changes in the past few years since you disappeared. This time you came back, although you killed Emperor Huoyun and destroyed Huoyun Mountain and several other great sects, but for those
For several places, it is far from enough.”
"Dongzhou City, ten major families?"
Now that the Gu family has been destroyed, only nine of the ten ancient families are still there.
"Yes! The remaining nine ancient families!"
Gu Sanmei nodded, her face also revealed a kind of resentment, but more importantly, she was still helpless.
"I know you may not believe it, but although Huoyun Mountain has been at its peak in recent years, its foundation is still shallow after all. If it weren't for Emperor Huoyun, they would not be qualified to take over Dongzhou City."
Xiao Lintian was obviously a little unconvinced, "Aunt Gu, Master has even killed Emperor Huoyun, are you still afraid that these ancient families will fail?"
He said with a look of disdain, "Emperor Huoyun is so powerful, he even wiped out the Gu family, and he was slapped to death by his master."
After he finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. He smiled awkwardly and quickly explained, "No, Aunt Gu, I didn't say that the Gu family is not good, it's just that..."
Xiao Lintian hesitated and couldn't come up with an excuse for a long time.
Fortunately, Gu Sanmei and Gu Lie both knew this boy's temperament and were outspoken, so they didn't take it to heart.
And the decline of the Gu family is also a fact.
"Li Ye, although the Gu family was still known as the ancient family, it has been in decline for many years. It was barely supported by the old man Dan Zu, but the other nine ancient families are different."
Gu Sanmei's expression was slightly solemn, "Compared with the original Gu family and even Huoyun Mountain, if they join forces, they may hinder you everywhere."
This was put more euphemistically, as Gu Sanmei was afraid that Li Ye would not accept it.
However, Li Ye nodded, "I naturally understand that the nine ancient families are not comparable to the emperors outside. As far as I know, these ancient families have great emperors alive, or even more than one."
No one expected that Li Ye would have known this a long time ago.
They even said what they were going to say next, "Not to mention anything else, the three great emperors of Huafu, Xiao family, and Lin family have appeared before."
During his battle with Emperor Huoyun, he sensed the auras of the three emperors.
Two of them were naturally familiar to him, they were Emperor Dongyue and Emperor Canglin.
As for the other person, he quickly guessed his identity and it was none other than Emperor Tianhua of Washington.
"Now that you know this, I feel relieved. I was originally thinking that you would move into Dongzhou City directly on impulse."
Gu Lie breathed a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly, "The nine ancient families are not comparable to ordinary emperors. Even the emperor behind them is more terrifying than ordinary emperors!"
As a descendant of an ancient family, Gu Lie naturally knows the inside story that many outsiders don't know. "You may not know that Dongzhou City has been said to be the land of dragon veins since ancient times. This is not a myth. And there are many families from the nine ancient families.
The strong ones have been lucky enough to be close to the Dragon Vein, and they have studied and practiced in it, especially those great emperors who have obtained some powerful power from the Dragon Vein!"
When he spoke at the end, his expression became even more serious.
"Dragon Veins?"
Li Ye remained silent.
Originally, he might not be able to detect the dragon veins, but now he can sense some weird power that is looming under Dongzhou City.
However, he discovered some clues. In addition to the so-called dragon veins, which were similar to spiritual veins but a thousand times thicker, there was also another power hidden in them.
And that power made him feel a little familiar, as if it was related to immortals and demons.
"Immortals and demons? Today's Three Realms and Nine Domains can no longer support the existence of immortals and demons. Is it something left over from ancient times?"
What happened in the ancient catastrophe, no one knows.
But now the Three Realms and Nine Realms have entered the Age of Ending Dharma, and cannot support the horrific consumption of immortals and demons at all.
This is why for millions of years, let alone immortals and demons, it has been so difficult to even break through to the imperial realm.
Not only has more than 90% of the inheritance of Taoism been lost, but more importantly, the astonishing changes in the entire world, and the collapse of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth have made everyone lag far behind the practitioners of ancient times.
Naturally, everyone didn't know that Li Ye's thoughts had drifted outside the Three Realms.
Thinking that he was just a little unwilling, Gu Lie changed his tone and said, "Li Ye, don't be disappointed. Since Sanmei and I advise you to replace everything left by the Gu family, naturally it's not just talk."
"oh?"
"Although the nine ancient families may not want to see you take over Dongzhou City, not everyone is like that."
Bai Jingyun's eyes lit up, and Xiao Lintian also understood, and said happily, "Uncle Lie, what do you mean?"
"Hey, they are not monolithic. The ones who really have grudges against us are actually the Huafu and the Lin family."
Washington and the Lin family!
Several people were thoughtful. Indeed, although Li Ye made many enemies a few years ago, there were only a few who really had irreconcilable grievances with him.
Most of the other ancient families are just competing for interests.
For example, in the Xiao family, although a holy king died because of Li Ye, you must know that at least half of Xiao Jianfeng's current cultivation is due to Li Ye's nine-transformation magic pill.
"Li Ye, if you can get someone from the nine ancient families to side with you, it will be much easier to take control of Dongzhou City."
Gu Lie talked eloquently. Although he was now a useless person, after all, he was once a descendant of an ancient family, and no one knew more about the major forces in Dongzhou City than he did.
However, just one word from Li Ye made his face fall.
"Not only the Huafu and the Lin family, I have enmity with the Ye family and the Helan family."
Li Ye's tone was calm, even understated, but everyone was completely stunned.
Gu Lie opened his mouth, and suddenly slapped himself hard. How could he forget this!
