My book friend Long Aotian

Chapter 75 Laughing Stock
I thought I could quickly raid the demon's lair and catch the opponent off guard.

Unexpectedly, the Fenglin Volcano fell from the sky. All the opportunities and advantages became meaningless. The huge size of the six major sects was like the shadow of a distant mountain, pressing directly over the Baihua Valley.

However, for Li Bailong and his apprentice, the real crisis is even more terrifying.

Jiang Lishu looked at the eight-blade pattern on the side of the airship, his body trembling slightly, and confusion in his eyes.

Then she felt her right hand getting hot. Li Bailong came to her side, held her hand, and whispered, "Sister, go back to the valley first. It's useless to stay here any longer."

"It would be strange if I stayed away from my disciple when he was in trouble." Jiang Lishu forced a smile, but he couldn't hold it back. He whispered, "Little brother, should I...should I run away?"

"It's us."

Li Bailong corrected her, gazing at the wonders of the sky and exhaling slowly.

At this point, speculation became reality.

And the situation was far more serious than he thought.

"Let's see what the senior masters have to say first."

He shook his master's hand and said, "Don't worry. No matter how powerful Fenglin Huoshan is, can he kill me? But you must not let us down. If our identities are discovered, we may not be able to survive even if we escape to Beining."

A figure flashed, and the third uncle approached.

Jiang Lishu pulled his hand away without leaving a trace.

Wei Henglan did not notice the little tricks between the master and the disciple. In fact, she had no time to care about these little things now. The expression of the Third Uncle was more solemn than ever before. He whispered: "Something bad has happened. Your head uncle ran too far away and it will be difficult for him to come back. You should return to the valley immediately and ask your Seventh Uncle to take you to the Cao Gang's headquarters to avoid the limelight!"

Jiang Lishu was shocked: "Has it come to this?"

Third Master frowned slightly.

Even though she realized that Fenglin Huoshan was behind this when Bai Xingxiang attacked, it was only after the airship came and the soldiers dropped from the sky that she realized how determined the other party was.

"First, Qian Lin Huoshan came to place an order and arrogantly asked us to cancel the business we had accepted and free up all the hand-looms to produce a huge amount of special fabrics for them. But although the person who came at that time was of noble status, he was just a front-stage figure. We thought it was just a normal business transaction. The other party's conditions were harsh, so we thought about it again and again and rejected him."

Wei Henglan sighed and explained in detail.

Baihua Valley is only a first-class sect. Compared with Fenglin Volcano, it is just a firefly under the bright moon. It takes courage to refuse. After refusing, it is inevitable to feel worried.

When she heard that Li Bailong was attacked that day, she guessed that Feng Lin Huoshan was dissatisfied with being humiliated and hit him.

Later, since Li Bailong said that it was related to the Demon Sect and he had a way to track the enemy's whereabouts, Wei Henglan made a plan, took advantage of the situation to launch a surprise attack, captured the Demon Sect disciples alive, tortured them to get intelligence, and seized evidence.

Then, ask the head sister and the seventh sister to bring up the relationship between Cao Gang and Xuanyuan Sect, invite Feng Lin Huoshan to mediate, put the matter under the table and lightly cover it up, and everyone will pretend that nothing happened.

Then they expressed their apologies sincerely, explained the reasons and difficulties for rejecting the order, then Fenglin Huoshan took the face of the six major sects into consideration and lost this hand, and Baihua Valley gave them a way out, and the matter could be resolved.

As for revenge, he would never even think about it. The martial arts world is about human relationships and the ways of the world. It's good for everyone to be harmonious and make money. How could they have nothing better to do than to go against a behemoth like Fenglin Volcano?
However, things are unpredictable and situations change suddenly.

——The one who attacked Baihua Valley was not the person in front of the stage who was insulted, but the Fenglin Volcano genius who came with the airship army and elite guards!
He came in such a fierce manner, showing off his force and power. What he did was definitely not for face and place... but for something more practical!
So we must be more determined to win!
"In this case, the previous arrangements are meaningless. Since he has framed you for the Demon Sect, there is no doubt that you are his breakthrough point. All the conspiracies and suppressions will fall on you."

Wei Henglan said worriedly, "Now that things have come to this, you will only be humiliated and bullied if you stay here. Go back and ask Seventh Sister for help. She may appear cold on the outside but has a warm heart, and she will definitely not ignore you!"

Li Bailong thought about it again and again, then shook his head and said, "I can't leave."

Wei Henglan said angrily: "You kid! Do you think the six major sects are all reasonable?"

"That's why I can't leave. He's clearly trying to use me as a target. If I run away, won't I be left to be wrongly accused and slandered? If I stay here, I still have room to counter his moves."

Li Bailong said calmly: "Besides, if I leave, the other party will not let it go. Since he has set up such a formation, no matter what he wants, he must get it. So all the conspiracies and pressures will still be placed on the sect... The master's kindness is great, how can I just leave and let others take the blame?"

"Stubborn!"

Wei Henglan was anxious and angry, and wanted to beat and scold him, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. The disciple in front of her had a calm look and a peaceful expression. Even when facing an unprecedented enemy, he remained calm and faced it fearlessly.

Such courage and bravery were originally taught by her own hands, according to her ideal in mind... adding a bit of responsibility and ambition to the character of that damn bastard.

Now that things have come to this, I can only hope to hold out until the head sister comes back and figures out a solution.

The sky over there rumbled, and the airship slowly descended, becoming increasingly huge and terrifying in the darkening sky.

Raging flames have risen from the ground, and the soldiers marching on the land are lined up in neat formations with flags like clouds.

Three hundred people.

Wei Henglan watched coldly and counted the number of people.

These are not the Eight-Front Heavenly Army, but the private army of Wenren among the Eight Clans of Fenglinhuoshan.

Although not as elite as the Eight-Feng Heavenly Army, they were also trained according to the Fenglin Formation tactics. They were all wearing heavy armor and breathing slowly and solemnly. They were all warriors... Obviously, this operation was not only about Fenglin Volcano allocating airships and sending out the Heavenly Army to follow, but the Wenren family also assembled their own soldiers to bolster the momentum for the geniuses of their own clan.

It really is a must.

There were footsteps from behind, and three people were approaching.

Mu Qingge stood still calmly and said to Wei Henglan, "Aunt."

Wei Henglan felt a little relieved and said softly, "Good boy."

Feng Guozhong stood aside and nodded to Li Bailong.

Xiong Jingyan was the most relaxed, just staring at the airship of Fenglin Volcano with a deep look.

Wu Wei was standing far away, looking embarrassed and hesitant. When he saw Li Bailong looking at him, he smiled bitterly.

Li Bailong waved to him, signaling him to leave. Wu Wei hesitated for a moment, but decided to stay where he was.

So he didn't care anymore. Li Bailong turned around and said to Xiong Jingyan: "Brother Xiong, I appreciate your kindness. You don't have to stay here..."

Although the six major sects have equal status, he is a mere helmsman of the Lingyu sect. He has no right to speak in front of the genius of Fenglin Huoshan. If he forces himself to come forward, he might bring down the prestige of his own sect.

The other party simply replied: "I'm curious and want to take a look. Junior Brother Li, don't worry about me."

Seeing him like this, Wei Henglan was moved and wanted to make use of the Lingyu Sect's banner, but then she changed her mind and thought, what can a leader of a branch helm rely on? Besides, the other party stayed for the sake of loyalty. If she tied him up on the warship by force, it would only make things worse.

"After all, it's your family that you can trust."

Wei Henglan sighed, and when he looked up again, his eyes turned cold: "Baihua Valley has been established for twelve years, and everything has been going smoothly. How can all the good things in the world belong to us? After passing this level, Baihua Valley can be considered a great sect!"

The airship slowly descended, with a long ladder hanging down.

Two elegant young men and wealthy princes floated down, followed by a gaunt old man in black with a restrained look in his eyes, obviously a thug.

The surroundings were filled with swords and spears like a forest, and the soldiers were saluting with a majestic and powerful aura, making the few figures in Baihua Valley look lonely and like tiny insects under a huge shadow.

"Fairy Lian, Fairy Wei, Fairy Jiang." The person who spoke was very graceful, wearing a blue brocade robe, with a warm smile, and was humble and polite. He greeted the three people one by one, and it was obvious that he had done his homework beforehand: "On the way, I heard a report that the people in Baihua Valley are killing demons. This is a righteous cause, how can I not help? I hope you will not think I am meddling."

Although everyone knew that he came with bad intentions, Fenglin Huoshan Tianjiao treated them with courtesy, so they had to return the courtesy politely. Then they heard Wenren Zhuo introduce: "This is the Sixteenth Prince's son."

royal?

Wei Henglan's heart shuddered, and a bad premonition spread.

The prince was wearing a jade robe and a golden belt, looking elegant and dignified. His astonished eyes swept across the faces of Wei Henglan and the others, and then he restrained himself and said politely, "I am just an idler, please be polite."

"Lady Guardian."

After the greetings, Wen Ren Zhuo did not beat around the bush. He came with great power, so why would he be secretive when speaking?

The sect's genius said, "Our sect admires the needleworkers of Baihua Valley for weaving magic armor, and sincerely invites you to join us. The other day, an old servant behaved inappropriately and offended the fairies, causing the negotiations to fail. Today, I am specially sent by the mountain master to come here with sincerity and generous gifts. I hope you will agree."

coming.

Wei Henglan said calmly: "Mr. Chi is very polite and has no impoliteness. It's just that the Baihua Valley sect is small and has limited production capacity, so it can't meet your sect's needs..."

"This matter is already known to our sect, and there is a way to have the best of both worlds."

Wen Renzhuo smiled faintly and said, "Fenglin Volcano is the richest in the world, with countless skilled craftsmen. It has a large population under its rule, which is enough to help Baihua Valley expand its scale and boost its industry. Xiaoke came here today for this reason."

Even Second Uncle understood this.

Accept investment and have Fenglin Volcano help expand production capacity and even expand the scale of the sect.

but……

To be a dog.

Wei Henglan said calmly: "This matter is of great importance, and the head sister must come back to make a decision."

"Of course." Wen Renzhuo smiled, "I have plenty of time to wait for Fairy Yang to come back. After all, the tip I received the other day said that a well-known warrior in Lin County had secretly communicated with the Demon Sect, and I am trying to investigate it thoroughly..."

Everyone was shocked.

coming.

Wen Renzhuo is a genius from one of the six major sects. He is straightforward in his actions and words, without any detours. His eyes suddenly became sharp as he pointed directly at Li Bailong: "After all, it is really outrageous to say that Young Master Li from your sect is secretly communicating with the Demon Sect."

Lian Yueyao was about to speak when he heard Li Bailong say calmly, "If you have any evidence, please report it to the authorities."

Before he finished speaking, the black-robed old man behind Wen Renzhuo looked at him fiercely, and his mind pressed directly at him: "Do you have the right to interrupt Feng Lin Huoshan Tianjiao when he is talking!?"

Lian Yueyao waved his sleeves to block the divine suppression and glared at the man angrily.

Li Bailong said calmly, "I am the champion of Jiangbei, a candidate of this dynasty, and a lord of Yunqi. I have both military and martial arts achievements. Even in the capital, I have the qualifications to speak. Fenglin Huoshan Tianjiao has such a grand show, but dares to shut up a military candidate?"

The old man was caught off guard and was about to sneer when he heard Ren Zhuo say, "Old Xi, don't be angry. Senior Brother Li is right. Besides, he is also qualified to speak in front of me. After all, the Perfect Moon is well-known among the geniuses of the six major sects."

The old man called Xi Lao knew the young master's temperament, so he said in a humorous way: "There is something I don't know."

"Indeed, this is a secret of our dynasty." Wen Renzhuo said calmly, "This Mr. Li once had the opportunity to become a disciple of Master Zhang of Xuanyuan Sect and become his first disciple."

I really don’t know!

This time, Old Xi really looked at Li Bailong straight in the eye, and even the always calm and composed Crown Prince showed surprise - there was only one Master Zhang in the Xuanyuan Sect... and he was the Lord of the Fighting Department and the next Chief Sect Master!
When the old headmaster steps down in the future, Daozi will be the one to lead the Xuanyuan Taoist sect!
His first disciple?
"Yes, Valley Master Yang has great connections, and this matter was almost set in stone. However, this Mr. Li is very kind-hearted and wanted to do something for his fellow villagers before leaving. So he went to Lin County to treat the pollution and water, and even wrote a great article that shook the world..."

Wenren Zhuo looked at Li Bailong, with a hint of sneer in his eyes.

"This article is so good that it has spread throughout the court and the public, and has been highly praised by the Prime Minister. Later, the important officials discovered that this young man who is about to become the next disciple of the Taoist master of Xuanyuan Sect is not only extremely talented in martial arts, but also has an almost divine ability to govern. If such a person is not allowed to serve in the court, does it mean that after Master Zhang has sorted out the martial arts of Xuanyuan Sect, his disciples will sort out the government affairs of the Taoist sect?"

When he said this, he couldn't help laughing.

"So the heaven and earth joined forces to cut off his path to heaven." Wen Renzhuo looked at Li Bailong and smiled, "Otherwise, today, when I see him, I have to bow three times respectfully and call him Senior Brother."

"I understand."

Old Xi looked at Li Bailong and sighed, "There are such fools in the world."

"Yes, it's just because of a group of lowly people..." Wen Renzhuo said, "So, all of us geniuses from the six major sects know about this matter. This Wuque Zhiyue is really what we call... a laughing stock."

Mr. Xi burst into laughter.

The soldiers of Fenglin Volcano responded with laughter, and the sound shook the whole area.

Malice and ridicule swept over.

Everyone in Baihua Valley was shaking with anger. Amidst the laughter, a voice broke the silence.

"Idiot." Li Bailong said calmly, "Your mother is dead."

The laughter disappeared instantly, and everyone was stunned. Wen Renzhuo's smile froze on his face. He even thought he had heard it wrong. Then, he became furious: "——What did you say!"

The soldiers gathered together with murderous intent and brought heavy pressure.

Li Bailong spread his hands: "Nothing."

Xi Lao was furious: "How dare you insult Tianjiao?"

"I didn't curse." Li Bailong remained calm, "Does Fenglin Huoshan want to wrongly accuse someone?"

"I wrongly accused you?" Wen Renzhuo was filled with anger. He thought that by humiliating Li Bailong, he could make him impatient and let him take the initiative. Who knew that this guy would...

He sneered, "With my status, would I wrongly accuse you? Everyone here has heard it, Li Bailong, you insulted our sect's genius, which is an insult to Fenglin Huoshan. I can have someone..."

"He didn't curse."

The voice cuts in, equally calm.

"Who are you to dare..."

The questioning voice disappeared halfway through, and under the gaze of everyone, Xiong Jingyan took two steps forward.

"Ling Yu Sect said that he didn't scold you." He said calmly, "Feng Lin Huoshan, don't bully others by taking advantage of your power."
