PFC Chapter 95 Li's Scheme
Chapter 95 Li's Scheme
"Tang Jian!"
Upon seeing Li Lan, the Xu family members were somewhat surprised. Xu Mao, in particular, gave Wang Danglei and Zhao Chen a cold look and said, "What's going on? You two sects can't even handle such a small matter?"
Wang Danglei and Zhao Chen lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Li Lan strolled into the main hall with a leisurely air, then smiled and said, "It's not their fault. These two accepted my gifts, so naturally they don't want to be enemies with our Yuan Clan."
"I also have a gift I would like to present to Lord Xu and all of you experts. I wonder if you would be willing to accept it?"
Xu Mao was about to reprimand him when Xu Yan suddenly waved his hand to stop him, saying calmly, "It seems that you have taken over the Yunbei Sect and the Qinghe Sect. You are indeed a Golden Core cultivator."
"Chief Tang, you truly have a grand vision to have Wang Danglei and Zhao Chen lure us here."
"However, doesn't Patriarch Tang think you're in a bit too much of a hurry? At your rate of growth, it won't be long before you become a major threat to the Xu clan, yet you're rushing to find me..."
He smiled slightly, "Should I praise your courage, or say you're incredibly foolish?"
He had already scanned the entire area with his divine sense before he arrived, and there were no other experts in the Thousand Rivers Land.
Can a mere Li Lan turn the world upside down?
"Elder Xu Yuan, you should experience the power of Patriarch Tang's Golden Core cultivation!"
He opened his mouth.
An old man stepped forward and looked at Li Lan with a sneer.
He is a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!
"Kid, you want to die? Then I'll let you die—"
With a cold shout, he suddenly raised his hand, and terrifying spiritual power gathered in his palm into a thunderous roar. Then, he slammed his palm down towards Li Lan.
Wang Danglei and Zhao Chen both changed color. Even if Li Lan was a Golden Core cultivator with unlimited potential, he would probably only have one way out: death!
With Li Lan dead, they're finished too!
However, Li Lan remained completely still and stood still.
The immense power of thunder was about to destroy Li Lan, but at that moment, some unknown force descended, and all of Elder Xu Yuan's attacks suddenly vanished!
"what?"
Xu Yuan was taken aback. How did Li Lan manage to do that?
"You little beast, I'll kill you!"
He got serious and decided to go all out, but when he tried to activate his spiritual power, he found that it was as if it was sealed, and he couldn't mobilize any of it!
"not good!"
His face turned pale, and he suddenly turned to look at Xu Yan and the others.
Xu Yan also sensed something was wrong and was about to take action, but like Xu Yuan, his spiritual power was sealed!
"What's going on? We can't mobilize our spiritual power!"
"How could this be!"
"Sorcery! This is sorcery!"
Everyone's expression changed drastically.
Xu Yan, in particular, had a look of fear flash in his eyes.
He's a proper Dao Integration cultivator, yet he's been suppressed into this state... Even an old monster at the Seventh Tribulation Realm couldn't do this.
Could it be... that the Yuan Clan actually has immortals helping them?
No... if that's the case, why haven't we heard anything from the Sword Sect?!
"What... exactly do you want?"
He looked up at Li Lan, his eyes filled with dread, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
"Didn't I say I had a gift for you all?"
Li Lan smiled slightly, then stepped forward, took out a few pills, and fed them to Xu Yan and the others.
Xu Yan and the others were powerless to resist, and their faces grew even paler.
"Please wait for a few days in the Yuan Clan. We will then allow you to leave."
The Puppet Insect is, after all, the core treasure insect of the Zhu family, and Li Lan still needs time to refine it!
The reason he had Wang Danglei and others lure Xu Yan and the others here was to control them.
Only by controlling Xu Yan can we protect the development of the Yuan Clan!
"The insect pills you fed us, were they from the Zhu family?"
An elder of the Xu family, a man of great experience and knowledge, said with a fearful expression, "You...you're backed by the Zhu family?!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan and the others all changed color.
The Zhu Clan of the Immortal Realm is a super-powerful force, standing tall in the clouds, and is simply not something a small immortal clan like the Xu Clan can easily challenge.
The Abyss Clan actually has such a background?
"You want to turn us into puppets... Don't even think about it!"
The old man suddenly rammed into the stone wall beside him, but he was already a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, so how could he commit suicide by ramming into a wall? He frantically rammed into the wall only because the puppet insect terrified him to the extreme.
This kind of thing is notorious even in the immortal realm.
"Tang Jian, I advise you to be more rational!"
Cold sweat dripped down Xu Yan's forehead. He was truly terrified. Once he ingested the puppet worm, even immortals would find it difficult to cure, and he would be destined to be an ignorant and mindless puppet for the rest of his life!
"We, the Xu family... also work for other powerful forces. To tear off the mask like this is not good for either of us!"
"Qin Hongyun, is it?" Li Lan said with a cold sneer, "Our Yuan Clan and she have long since broken off all pretense of civility."
"No!"
Xu Yan shook his head. Now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to ask, "Do you know the Li family of the Northern Frontier?!"
The Li family of Northern Xinjiang!
Upon hearing these four words, Li Lan's expression instantly became somewhat subtle.
He knew, of course, that this clan had sent Li Daoling, Li Huan, and others to the Abyss Realm to participate in the sacrificial burning ritual.
In fact, Li Lan's ancestor, Li Qinghong, came from this clan. He made great contributions to the Li family and the northern frontier, but was stranded in the Abyss Realm, which led to the Li Lan of today.
Unfortunately, this clan did not remember the merits of Li Lan's ancestors during the sacrificial burning array, nor did they care about Li Lan in the slightest. Instead, they wanted to sacrifice Li Lan!
Therefore, there was no affection between Li Lan and the Li family, and even after arriving in the Immortal Realm, he never thought of contacting them.
"The Li family of the Northern Frontier has produced an unparalleled genius, Li Hao!"
Seeing the change in Li Lan's expression, Xu Yan grasped at a straw and hurriedly asked, "Do you know why we're plotting to seize the Thousand Rivers Land?"
Li Lan looked at him.
"Because there is a celestial source vein here, and this vein is a hidden vein, the source of its energy can be traced back to the Wanyuan Mountain Range in the Sinful State!"
"Although we do not know what the Li family intends to do, the immortal vein here is extremely important to that genius and is related to the Li family's plans."
"The Li family couldn't act themselves, fearing it would attract attention, so they asked us to act on their behalf..."
Xu Yan said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Tang, if you attack us, the Li family will definitely find out. At that time, for the sake of this place and the future of your peerless genius, your Yuan clan may really face annihilation!"
Li Lan nodded and said, "Understood—"
As soon as he finished speaking, he continued to force-feed the insect pills and then ordered his men to lock Xu Yan and the others in cages!
"Tang Jian, you can't do this!"
"You're bringing disaster upon the Yuan Clan; the Li Clan will annihilate you..."
They cursed.
……
Li Lan headed to the place where the cat was in seclusion, and just as he was about to speak, the cat's voice rang in his ears:
"The method of the Teng Snake to obtain water."
"Using this place as an inlet, if we can set up a magic array on the other side of the Wanyuan Mountain Range, we can steal the earth energy and source energy from within the Wanyuan Mountain Range..."
Li Lan was startled. The Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range contained countless treasures and mineral resources. If he could steal the earth energy and source energy from that place, the Thousand Rivers Land would be nourished with endless resources and might transform into an unimaginable treasure land!
"The Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range is, after all, the former territory of the True Dragon Clan. In addition to immortal resources and other substances, the earth's energy also contains the aura of True Dragons, which is the most precious thing and can help people cultivate the True Dragon Technique..."
The cat tilted its head and said, "This is Li's purpose. Having a peerless genius who cultivates the True Dragon Technique might allow them to survive the great calamity at the source."
Li Lan was stern-faced, but a slight heaviness settled in his heart. This meant the Li family was determined to acquire this place…
Li Lan initially thought that Qin Hongyun was behind the Xu family, so his original plan was to control Xu Yan and others and then make the Xu family the "protective umbrella" for the Yuan clan. Xu Yan and others could deceive Qin Hongyun and make Qin Hongyun think that the Yuan clan had been destroyed, thereby reducing the hostility from the Qin family. This plan was a complete deception!
Unexpectedly, the Li family was also involved.
Escape from the Land of a Thousand Rivers?
The thought only flashed through Li Lan's mind before she rejected it!
The source is approaching, and chaos is imminent. In such a time of great strife, blindly compromising will only lead to the loss of all possibilities!
"I'm considering using a counter-strategy; is there any hope?"
He looked up and saw the cat!
The cat stared at Li Lan with a gloomy gaze and muttered, "I knew I wasn't wrong, the trouble... is only getting worse."
