The First Venerable of All Paths

"Fang Xuan, thank you so much this time."

In Mingyue County, in a secluded courtyard.

With a deathly pale face, Li Xintong said softly, "You don't need to worry about what happens next. Just leave."

"Are you trying to kick me out?"

Fang Xuan laughed and said, "We're friends, after all. We can't be so heartless."

"You know that's not what I meant."

Li Xintong said seriously, "You should leave before the Gu family completely seals off Mingyue County, otherwise you will never have another chance."

"Does the Gu family really have that much power?"

Fang Xuan frowned.

Mingyue County is not Mingyang County.

One Mingyue County is equivalent to at least three Mingyang Counties.

The various family forces are intricately intertwined, with numerous powerful individuals, far exceeding those of Qingyang County and Mingyue County.

Completely sealing off the entire Mingyue County is no easy task.

"In the past, Gu Jia certainly couldn't have done it, but things are different now."

Li Xintong said in a deep voice, "The Gu family is now a member of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, and their overall strength has increased dramatically. They only need to borrow a portion of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce's power to blockade Mingyue County. What difficulty would that be?"

"I see."

Fang Xuan nodded and said, "I didn't expect that the Gu family could actually get on the good side of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce."

I just don't know if this has anything to do with Lu Zhao.

"The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is extremely large and its influence is comparable to that of the Beast-Taming Hall of Sunset Valley."

Li Xintong said, "That's precisely why the Gu family takes this matter even more seriously and will never let it go."

The marriage alliance between the Li and Gu families was a major event in itself.

However, Li Xintong killed Li Kui and his son today, completely severing ties with the Li family.

Fang Xuan killed so many people from the Li and Gu families.

Given the personalities of these two families, they certainly won't let them off easily.

As a friend, Li Xintong really didn't want to involve Fang Xuan.

He has already helped me too much.

Friends should not constantly trouble each other, but rather be considerate of one another.

"and then?"

Fang Xuan looked at Li Xintong and said calmly, "If I really leave, what will you do? Can you handle the Li family and the Gu family by yourself?"

If Li Xintong hadn't been so badly injured and in such an unstable condition, Fang Xuan would have taken her away from Mingyue County instead of hiding her in this deserted, secluded courtyard.

"You don't need to worry about me."

Li Xintong tidied the hair at her temples and forced a weak smile.

"I made preparations early on after I suspected that my sister's death was related to the Li family."

Looking towards the Li family's direction, a cold glint flashed in Li Xintong's eyes.

"The injustices my mother and sister suffered back then absolutely cannot be forgiven!"

From childhood to adulthood, Li Xintong has never felt the warmth of a home.

Yes, it's always just about interests and calculations.

His biological father, Li Meng, was selfish and cowardly, only good at bullying his own family.

The patriarch, Li Kui, is a man who hides a knife behind a smile and kills without shedding blood.

Old Madam Li is cold-blooded, ruthless, despicable, and vicious.

Those members of the Li family are a bunch of inhuman beasts who devour people without spitting out the bones.

With such a family and such relatives, Li Xintong would not feel any psychological burden no matter how many of them died.

If possible, she would personally uproot this disgusting family.

However, she had only had a short preparation time before returning to Mingyue County, and many arrangements were not yet completed.

The incident happened suddenly, causing the sister's lingering resentment to backfire, creating an emergency situation.

For all these reasons, Li Xintong did not want to implicate Fang Xuan.

She will take her revenge on the Li family in her own way.

She won't let the Gu family off the hook either!

"Xintong, you're being too polite."

Sensing the chilling killing intent emanating from Li Xintong, Fang Xuan sighed inwardly, but a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"We're friends. If you know a friend is in trouble and still stand aside, then it means you don't consider me, Fang Xuan, a friend."

Upon hearing this, Li Xintong's delicate body trembled.

She looked at the young man before her, who stood tall and straight, with a gentle smile on his lips that was as refreshing as a spring breeze.

Compared to his fierce, god-like appearance during battle, he was completely different.

Li Xintong was moved, but hesitated to speak.

"Alright, if you feel it's difficult, just do me a favor later, and I'll repay the favor then."

Fang Xuan asked, "How is it?"

"it is good."

Although they hadn't known each other for long, Li Xintong knew Fang Xuan's personality very well.

This guy is very sentimental.

Once he's made up his mind, no one can change it.

"Let me make this clear from the start."

Fang Xuan said, "My job is no simple matter; it's even more troublesome than dealing with the Li family or the Gu family."

"Between friends, there's no need to talk about trouble."

Fang Xuan was taken aback, then he and Li Xintong exchanged a smile.

......

"Young master, we've found out."

Inside the Gu family home, exquisite porcelain was shattered on the floor.

With a gloomy expression, Gu Can leaned back in his chair, his eyes bloodshot, unable to hide his deep hatred.

Below, Steward Liang bowed respectfully and said, "The little bastard who took the young mistress away is named Fang Xuan. He is a friend that the young mistress met outside."

"What did you say?"

Gu Can suddenly straightened up, and a violent aura swept out from his body, crushing all the broken porcelain in the room into dust.

Overwhelmed by the terrifying aura, Steward Liang knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Young Master, his name is Fang Xuan."

"Fang...Xuan!"

"It's him again!"

Gu Can's face was contorted, and the way he gritted his teeth as he ate made him look like he wanted to tear Fang Xuan to pieces.

Yesterday was supposed to be his big day.

Among the guests who came to the Gu family to attend his wedding banquet were all prominent figures.

Most importantly, even the Sihai Chamber of Commerce sent a representative and presented a generous gift, giving Gu Can a lot of face.

Who would have thought that Gu Can's fiancée would be stolen away?

They also killed one of the Gu family's nannies, as well as many guards.

They trampled on Gu Can and the Gu family's reputation.

In just one day, the news spread throughout Mingyue County, making Gu Can a complete laughing stock.

The thought of those people looking at him with such strange emotions filled Gu Can with uncontrollable rage, and he wished he could destroy everything around him.

What nearly drove Gu Can to a rage was that the bastard who stole his fiancée was actually Fang Xuan!

The only person who knew Li Xintong and was also called Fang Xuan was the guy who had caused him to stumble twice.

"Where is Gu Xiao?"

Gu Can's eyes darkened, and he said coldly, "Bring him to see me!"

"The Second Elder is searching everywhere for Fang Xuan's whereabouts; he is not in the manor."

Steward Liang said, "Actually, young master, there's no need to worry. That little bastard is still in the city with the seriously injured young mistress. He won't be able to hide for long."

"No, you don't understand Fang Xuan."

Gu Can said, "That guy is not to be underestimated, otherwise even Rong Momo wouldn't have died at his hands."

"So what should we do?"

Thinking back to what happened yesterday, Manager Liang felt a lingering fear.

"Should we ask the eldest young master to intervene?"

"My elder brother is currently in seclusion and should not be disturbed."

Gu Can said in a chilling tone, "Go tell the Li family that if they don't want to be wiped out, they should send out everyone to search for Fang Xuan's whereabouts."

When the incident occurred yesterday, Gu Can had already asked the Sihai Chamber of Commerce to help seal off Mingyue County.

He was certain that Fang Xuan was still in Mingyue County, and finding him was only a matter of time.

But what Gu Can wanted was to tear Fang Xuan to pieces and grind his bones to ashes!

"Pass the message down as well."

Gu Can coldly stated, "Anyone who can provide clues will be richly rewarded!"

"It's the young master!"

Manager Liang nodded and was about to get up and leave.

"remember."

A cold, indifferent voice rang in Steward Liang's ears, startling him so much that he knelt on the ground.

"If you mess this up again, don't bother coming back."

Manager Liang shuddered, immediately bowing his head to the ground and shouting, "Please rest assured, young master, I will make that little beast kneel before you to atone for his sins!"

After Manager Liang left, Gu Can sat back down in his chair, a cold glint in his eyes.

"Fang Xuan, Li Xintong, you two despicable women!"

Gu Can reached out and took out a black jade pendant. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end he crushed the jade pendant.

"Such a disgrace must be avenged in blood!"

Gu Can muttered sinisterly to himself, "Li Xintong, just wait until you fall into my hands, and see how I deal with you!"

At that time, he will take away Li Xintong's primordial yin, cultivation, and everything else!

......

"The situation is more serious than I imagined."

In a secluded courtyard, in a secret underground chamber, Fang Xuan looked at Li Xintong as she slowly opened her eyes, his expression solemn.

"Your body is currently on the verge of extreme danger."

Fang Xuan said in a deep voice, "The soul, martial veins, and even the sea of ​​qi are all depleted and shrunken. It is not something that can be completely repaired overnight."

At that time, Li Xintong's body was controlled by her sister. In the battle with the old lady Li, her potential was repeatedly stimulated, which damaged her foundation.

Even though Fang Xuan gave her several pills and helped her refine them to nourish her body, her condition did not improve much.

"I know."

Li Xintong smiled bitterly and said, "But given the circumstances at the time, if we hadn't done it that way, they would have gotten their way."

Fang Xuan shook his head and remained silent.

Seeing Fang Xuan's hesitant look, Li Xintong rolled her eyes helplessly and said, "Just say what you have to say. I know this injury is nothing to you."

"I do have a solution."

Fang Xuan was somewhat embarrassed and said, "But..."

"Just what?"

Li Xintong looked puzzled.

Upon noticing Fang Xuan's somewhat evasive gaze, Li Xintong's pretty face suddenly flushed with embarrassment.

She murmured something, her lips barely moving.

"Hmph, it's not like you haven't seen it before."

Fang Xuan pretended not to hear.

"Of course, if it's difficult, you can take it slow and recuperate."

Fang Xuan coughed lightly and offered this suggestion.

"What's so difficult about it?"

Li Xintong glared at her and warned, "Just don't act like a hooligan."

Fang Xuan gave an awkward smile.

"Why don't you turn your back on me?"

Seeing that Fang Xuan was still staring at her, Li Xintong said irritably.

Fang Xuan quickly turned his back, focusing his attention on his nose and mind.

Soon, a rustling sound came from behind, like clothes falling to the ground.

"Okay, okay..."

A girl's shy voice rang out, barely audible.

Fang Xuan then turned around, revealing a perfect body to him.

Its skin was as white as jade, exquisitely beautiful.

The girl's unique fragrance almost made Fang Xuan's blood boil.

"What...what are you looking at?"

Noticing the intense look in Fang Xuan's eyes, Li Xintong instinctively crossed her arms, put her long legs together, and shifted uncomfortably.

Fang Xuan felt a heat in his nostrils, and a special heat surged straight to the top of his head.

He quickly circulated his internal energy to suppress the strange emotions within his body, and his eyes became clear.

"Lie down first."

Fang Xuan said in a hoarse voice, "It might hurt a little, you must not resist."

Li Xintong obediently lay on the bed, closed her eyes, bit her lip, but her body was trembling slightly.

A blue flame shot out from Fang Xuan's fingertip, but it was only the size of a hair.

"I'm starting!"

Seeing Li Xintong nod almost imperceptibly, Fang Xuan took a deep breath, pointed his finger at Li Xintong's dantian, and suddenly pointed.

"Mmm~"

A soft murmur drifted quietly through the secret room.
