The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 241 Li Qingyang

Climbing up the stairs, an extremely old-looking white-haired monk was already sitting in the hall on the second floor waiting for him.

Although Yang Lu had never seen this person before, after seeing this old monk sitting on the futon and meditating with his eyes closed, he realized that he might be Li Qingning's great-grandfather, Li Qingyang, the president of Lingshi Reserve Bank.

Ordinary monks will not look old no matter how old they are. The most typical example is Chen Ming, the head of the Mountain Eagle Sect who is now over 400 years old.

Although his beard and hair are also white, Chen Ming's complexion is as ruddy as a boy's. Only when he enters the final stage of life, where he burns his cultivation base in exchange for longevity, can a cultivator show his old age.

After seeing Yang Lu, Li Qingyang slightly opened his cloudy eyes and said: "The environment here is a bit bad, mainly because I don't like letting others clean up my house, and with my current state, I don't have the energy to clean it often Already, you, as a junior monk sent by me, will send me down as an old man who is dying!"

Although Li Qingyang was a big shot at the apex of the Kyushu cultivation world, his tone of voice was unusually gentle.

Yang Lu was about to say something polite, when he heard Li Qingyang continue to say: "I've heard about you, the theory and practice in the Qingning Chamber of Commerce are very good, and Qingning seems to like you very much. Every time I come back, She will always talk about Consultant Yang of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, although I haven't seen you with my own eyes, I have heard of your name a long time ago!"

Yang Lu couldn't figure out Li Qingyang's attitude, so he cupped his hands in embarrassment and said, "Miss Qingning and I are very good friends, this small trick is just a trick in front of your old man!"

"Is it just an ordinary friend?" Li Qingyang asked noncommittally, and without giving Yang Lu a chance to defend himself, he continued to say, "I invite you here alone, and there is no other meaning, but if you don't ask some questions Clearly, I am afraid that I will die in peace, I wonder if Consultant Yang can help me, a dying person, to clear up my doubts?"

Yang Lu didn't dare to put on a show in front of Li Qingyang, he quickly saluted respectfully and said, "Don't dare to do it, President Li, but it's okay to say it!"

After receiving Yang Lu's affirmative reply, Li Qingyang gently closed his eyes, and a mysterious aura emanated from him, and then enveloped Yang Lu, causing Yang Lu to feel a sense of horror.

Without waiting for Yang Lu to ask questions, Li Qingyang took the initiative to explain: "Don't panic, I just locked your aura with my spiritual consciousness. Although I can no longer mobilize my mana normally, my spiritual consciousness still has the golden core stage The level of a monk, and with the help of the Baiyu Pavilion, I can even temporarily reach the level of spiritual consciousness of the Nascent Soul."

"President Li, what are you going to do?"

Li Qingyang closed his eyes and said slowly: "I just want to make sure that I can get the most truthful answer before I die!"

Yang Lu was no longer a rookie in the cultivation world, so he instantly understood what Li Qingyang meant.

Cultivators rely on the sixth sense called divine consciousness to manipulate aura, and as long as it is human perception, it will inevitably be affected by emotions. When a practitioner's emotions fluctuate greatly, it will naturally cause disturbance to the surrounding aura environment.However, the consciousness of the great monks in the Nascent Soul Stage has been strong enough to be meticulous. Therefore, as long as the low-level monks are locked by the breath of the Nascent Soul Stage monks, even the slight mood swings when they lie, they will be keenly noticed by the Nascent Soul Stage monks.

Although this method of lie detection is not very accurate, its correct rate is at least [-]% to [-]%. As for the specific success rate, it also depends on the psychological quality of the locked person and the emotional state of the locked person at the time.

Yang Lu knew that he had no room to bargain with Li Qingyang.

Forcibly restraining the instinctive discomfort caused by being locked by the breath of a high-ranking monk, he swallowed with some difficulty and said: "President Li, just ask, I will definitely answer truthfully!"

Li Qingyang nodded lightly: "After I ask a question, you must answer within one second. Only in this way can I be sure whether you have lied to me. I can assure you that no matter what answer you give, I won't hold any ill will towards you, after all, you are the one that girl Qing Ning likes, and I will definitely stand by your side!"

"President Li, Missy and I are just ordinary friends—"

"You lied!"

Before Yang Lu could finish explaining, Li Qingyang mercilessly exposed his lies.

Hearing Li Qingyang's unquestionable tone, Yang Lu knew that the lie detector technique had played a role, so he could only scratch his head and said, "Well, I admit that I have a little affection for Miss Qingning, after all, Miss Qingning is born beautiful, I'm afraid there are not a few normal male cultivators who won't have a good impression of her..."

However, Li Qingyang said with a half-smile, "Is there really only that little affection?"

Yang Lu rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "Uh...maybe it's more than a little favor, a little bit more!"

Fortunately, Li Qingyang did not continue to ask, but sighed softly: "Even if you admit it openly, I will not interfere with your young people's affairs. I am just worried that Qingning will not be able to take good care of herself after I die. what……"

Hearing this, Yang Lu didn't know what to say.

He immediately patted his chest and promised: "President Li, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to assist the eldest lady!"

Li Qingyang shook his head slightly and said: "Xu Yannan and Jiang Hua'an have told me through various channels what you have done for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce recently, whether it is the internal governance of the Chamber of Commerce, or handling the relationship between all parties... It can be said that I did not personally come forward Under the circumstances, you have done your best, and I believe you have the ability to take good care of her."

It is not surprising that Xu Yannan reported to Li Qingyang.

It's just that Jiang Hua'an, an old guy who usually seems to be quiet, secretly reported everything he did to Li Qingyang behind his back!

This old fox hides so deeply!

One must know that Li Qingyang is one of the most important figures in the cultivation world of Kyushu. Jiang Hua'an was able to send a message to Li Qingyang who was far away at the Lingshi Reserve Bank. In terms of mobility alone, he had already thrown Han Xinhe and Su Yuanfeng out by several blocks.

It seems that Jiang Hua'an's ability to hold the power of the Haiya Department is definitely not only because his cultivation level is higher than that of Han and Su!
Li Qingyang seemed to have seen Yang Lu's thoughts, and explained with a smile: "I am in you, and you are in me. The relationship between the Wuliang Sword Sect and the vassal sect has always been like this, and the Haiya Sect is the top of this set of game rules. Player, you let the Qingning Chamber of Commerce bind the Haiya faction instead of the Shanying faction. This is indeed a wonderful move. On the surface, the Haiya faction does not have any backing in the Wuliangjian faction. It seems that it is not as good as Tianshu who has Cheng Shuying as a backer The Chengshan Hawk Faction, but the potential energy it possesses is simply not comparable to that of the shallow Mountain Hawk Faction!"

Li Qingyang's judgment was the same as Yang Lu's.

If the Shanying faction after Chen Ming came to power is like a sharp sword drawn out of its scabbard, then the Haiya faction that hides its strength and bide its time is like a huge iceberg lurking under the sea, with a deep foundation but little exposure.

Han Xinhe, Su Yuanfeng, Jiang Huaan...

None of these three people is a fuel-efficient lamp, not to mention that there is a Jindan period monk Xu Haihong in the Haiya department who specializes in business in Huoyun Prefecture!
