Chapter 114: The Ownership of the Pill
Chapter 115: The Ownership of the Pill
The Third Elder's call, although not loud, made the entire hall quiet for a moment.
All the family elders looked at Li Quanqing with various inquiries and considerations, and with different expressions on their faces, they kept this young and handsome boy in their hearts.
This is the current leading figure of the Quan generation. Even Li Quangeng’s reputation is slightly inferior to his.
The old men looked at the young man, and they felt as if they saw the former Foundation Establishment True Seed Li Kunli, who was also full of vigor and rising.
As a result, many people couldn't help but smile amiably to express their goodwill, even the old guys from the Great Elder's faction did the same.
Although everyone belongs to different camps, it does not prevent them from betting on both sides.
Who can tell clearly about the affairs of the younger generation?
"Quan Qing greets the elders."
Li Quanqing walked towards the third elder, neither humble nor arrogant, and greeted these old guys along the way.
The person he was more familiar with was an old man dressed as a fisherman or farmer.
This is the family elder who is in charge of fish purchasing in Changqing Palace. I have done business with him many times and I am quite familiar with him.
"Master, are we sure?"
Li Quanqing approached and asked in a low voice.
"Of course... no."
Li Kunli shrugged his shoulders and said bluntly, standing there like a burly iron tower: "Those old guys in the Sword Sect are too shameless. They value Li Quangeng's talent, so they blatantly support that waste Li Yumiao to break through to the foundation building stage."
"He has already wasted a spiritual item for foundation building. I think even if he gets another foundation building pill, I'm afraid there will be no hope for the future. His path to success has already been cut off!"
He spoke with a very loud voice and did not suppress his voice at all when he spoke, and his voice echoed clearly throughout the hall.
Many elders couldn't help but be silent for a moment, then pretended not to hear and continued discussing their own matters.
Li Quanqing was a little bit unconvinced. The Third Elder acted too calmly, as if he had expected it, and he did not show much disappointment or resentment.
However, there were so many people around at the moment that it was not convenient to ask in detail.
More than an hour later, all the family elders finally arrived. Powerful fluctuations of magic power gathered in the hall, and the spiritual pressure was rolling, almost making the air sticky.
Li Quanqing counted and found that there were 93 family elders in total, among whom there were 36 cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the rest were at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Among these 36 powerful elders, there are 13 cultivators who have reached the great perfection of Qi training. Most of them are already very old and have passed the sixty-year limit. The possibility of them being able to successfully break through to the foundation-building stage is extremely low.
Li Yumiao, the son of the great elder, is the youngest among them. He is less than fifty years old and is a middle-aged man who pretenses about culture.
The age of the third elder has always been a mystery, but he should be around sixty years old, not much older.
Therefore, the probability of breaking through the bottleneck is still very high.
But he has fire spiritual roots, and he is not practicing the "Blue Sea Tide Technique". In addition, the sea area is rich in water essence, which is actually a disadvantage.
"Why do I feel that with fifteen copper bean puppets and the Azure Sea Sword Formation, I can wipe out all these old guys present?"
Li Quanqing was so bored that a very rebellious idea suddenly popped into his mind. He stood there and amused himself.
dong dong!
While he was thinking, someone struck the bronze bell. The sound was melodious and crisp, like a gust of wind blowing through the hall, sweeping away the noisy discussions of the crowd.
Silently, two great foundation-building monks appeared behind the curtain. Even though they did not utter a word, their invisible aura was enough to overwhelm everyone present.
"We have met the clan leader and the supreme elder!"
All the family elders saluted in unison, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
When everyone was saluting, a corner of the curtain was suddenly lifted up, and a figure jumped out as swiftly as a sword and entered the team of elders. Li Quanqing happened to see this scene, and that person was Li Quangeng, who actually returned to the family from Shuihua Sword Sect.
Trouble...
His heart sank suddenly and he prepared for the worst.
"Tell me, who in our Li family should be best served with this foundation-building pill bestowed by the Supreme Sect?"
Li Kunlun's lazy voice came out, and even through the curtain one could imagine his cynical look.
"Reporting to the Supreme Elder, I think we should follow the clan rules and distribute this pill according to the family's contribution."
"The Third Elder risked his life to venture into the ruins for the prosperity of our Li family. He used his life to exchange for this foundation-building pill. He should be the one to take it!"
The person who said this was actually an old man behind the great elder.
After this man finished speaking, he immediately held his head high and walked with big strides to the team of the third elder.
Ah this...
Li Quanqing looked at the calm Li Kunli and thought to himself that you are really good at playing, Hall Master.
When the Great Elder saw someone betraying him, he was not angry, but just gave someone a calm look.
The next second, an elder not far behind Li Quanqing stood up and said loudly: "This is not right. If Elder Li Yumiao had not notified Senior Duan of the Sword Sect in time, it would be hard to say whether our Li family could keep those thousand-year-old elixirs!"
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the team and came behind the great elder, looking very businesslike.
Wow, he’s playing Infernal Affairs here!
Li Quanqing watched the elders talking to each other. In order to compete for the Foundation Establishment Pill, all kinds of secret private matters began to be exposed to each other.
He looked like a civet jumping up and down in a melon field.
But overall, the Third Elder was still at a slight disadvantage, with only forty-two elders supporting him.
Finally, the Grand Elder spoke: "In my opinion, since this foundation-building pill was snatched back by the Third Elder, I will give it to him."
As soon as these words were spoken, no one dared to say a word against them.
"Compared to young cultivators, it is still too difficult to build a foundation in Jiazi."
"Besides, I heard from Quan Geng that the main material used in this foundation-building pill is the beast core of a second-level water-based monster, which conflicts with the fire spirit root and is not appropriate."
The hoarse voice of the old man sounded. It was the clan leader Li Zongyao. He spoke slowly and logically.
"Clan leader, you are showing your blatant partiality. Everyone knows that among the cultivators with water spiritual roots in the family, the one with the greatest hope of building a foundation, Li Yumiao, is your grandson!"
Li Kunlun is worthy of being a thunder attribute. He speaks directly and in a sarcastic tone.
"Yu Miao is practicing the 'Blue Sea Tide Rising Technique'. He is young, has refined a spiritual object before, and has experience in impacting the foundation-building stage. Naturally, he has the greatest hope. It's not that I am biased."
Li Zongyao still spoke slowly and calmly.
The third elder couldn't help but laugh: "Patriarch, according to your logic, I think there is one person who is more suitable."
"I would like to recommend our clan elder Li Quanqing. He is young enough to have reached the eighth level of Qi Refining in his early twenties. He has also practiced the Blue Sea Tide Rising Technique and is extremely talented."
"I suggest that we seal this foundation-building pill and save it for him to use in the future!"
Li Quanqing was stunned when he saw himself being pushed out of the crowd by someone.
How come the melon I was eating was suddenly turned into a new melon?
Today's meeting lasted until 8pm. I have to go to work tomorrow after my one-day off. I'm really not in a good mood. Sorry, sorry (kowtow)
