Zhou Chengxue said that Penglai took a large sum of money from King Poyang to protect his family, but it was obvious that the Jiuzhen Sect was really dissatisfied with the Xiao family. There were only three golden elixir-level disciples escorting this boat of female family members, young children, orphans and widowed mothers.

, although probably no one in the East China Sea would dare to hijack this ship, it was obvious that they were not even interested in sending a few more Nascent Souls to escort them all the way, just to save the face of their allies who have been together for so many years.

In fact, it’s no wonder that the Lord Xiao himself is a two-pronged person. He pays taxes to Sanyuan and worships Penglai at the same time. He is a speculator who has both sides. Anyway, he has the ability and can bring in money, and the surrounding forces have been taken care of.

, but it also kept his throne as the leader of a country stable for many years.

But this time it was really too embarrassing. It couldn't even deal with the rebellion of a rebel general, and it also caused chaos in the country. The paper tiger was exposed, and Xiao's face was disgraced. But the problem is that Hou Gu's rebellion brought Penglai

The industry also caused huge losses, which disappointed the immortals so much that they almost broke up with each other.

To be honest, Penglai has been able to endure it so far. He has not punished the Xiao family personally, and also given the Xiao family kings a chance to clean up the mess. He hopes that they can restore the stability of Zhenzhou as soon as possible. This is probably considered a sign of the immortals.

In view of the long-term friendship between allies, I would like to give Lian a last chance.

However, it is conceivable that the immortals of Jiuzhen Sect will probably no longer trust the ability of the Xiao family as they did in the past. If you think more darkly, maybe these female relatives are here to take refuge, and in a sense they have become sent by the Xiao family.

Where are the hostages?

As I said before, the world is already in turmoil.

"Princess Anji, what are you thinking about? I heard that the prince-in-law has died in the rebellion, and Taicheng is only about to be destroyed. Without the protection of the old king, do you still want to seek refuge with your good brothers? Will you be sent to the city in the future?

Sanyuan, do you want to please those old husbands?"

As soon as Li Fan and Zhou Zhenren landed on the bow of the boat, they heard a Jindan monk from Penglai, who was looking sad, saying to Xiao Yunan, who was pale and frightened.

"Although you still have some savings and some beauty, it would be so hard for a woman to be alone without a man to protect you.

Although I, Cheng Qianlong, am not talented and have not passed the college examination, I can still be regarded as a person from Penglai. My grandfather, Cheng Chengzhi, is an inner disciple of Taishang Gaozhen Palace. Now Penglai is in a period of employment, and sooner or later the enrollment will be expanded.

Then I will be able to worship you through the inner door. If you agree, becoming my side chamber will not be considered an insult to you..."

As he spoke, he smiled and stretched out his hand to pluck Xiao Yunan's hair. Xiao Yunan trembled subconsciously and hid, while Cheng Qianlong's eyes sharpened, his smile turned cold, and he was about to have a seizure.

As a result, before half a word could be uttered, Li Fan lifted up the guy by his collar and threw it away with a whoosh, and said to the stunned Xiao Yunan, "Don't worry, madam! King Poyang spent a lot of money to buy your safety."

, just come to me if you need anything!"

Then he turned to Zhou Chengxue and winked, "Brother Zhou, look at what I did right."

Zhou Chengxue opened his jaw and watched as the man just spun hundreds of times, flew a thousand meters away, and fell into the sea with a thud. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead. He couldn't help but shudder, and waved his hand to stop the two men who were pulling out their swords.

Jindan disciples, asked them not to come up to see him off, and said to Li Fan,

"Fellow Taoist... Alas, it was my lack of care that frightened Princess Anji. I will educate these juniors and prevent them from causing trouble to you."

Li Fan laughed loudly, "You're so scared, if this dude messes with you again, just scream, I'll snap! His head will be twisted at once!"

Xiao Yunan was startled by the red-haired man, but then her expression darkened, and she bowed and thanked her, "Thank you two real people for caring about me. It's not that I had an old acquaintance with fellow Taoist Cheng, which caused him to misunderstand."

Zhou Chengxue saw that the Xiao family was under the roof, so he didn't dare to say anything more, and he didn't want to make a big fuss, so he made peace and said, "Since it's all a misunderstanding, we won't bother you. I will escort you to Penglai."

.Princess, please rest assured.”

Li Fan also knew that Zhou Chengxue was just looking at the favor given by his tiger-clawed hand, so he also smiled and stopped chasing the orphans and widows who were embarrassing the Xiao family. He waved his hand and let Xiao Yunan go, and turned to ask Zhou Chengxue.

"There are so many experts in Penglai. We still need to recruit troops, but we want to conquer Hou Gu and help the Xiao family restore the country? Then will I, the red-haired ghost Li Tang, have a chance to become famous in the world? Brother Zhou, give me a sure word, as long as you say a word

, a mere Hou Gu is nothing! Watch me go up and click! His head will be twisted in one go!"

When Xiao Yunan heard this from behind, she immediately slowed down and pricked up her ears.

Zhou Chengxue didn't care, he just watched the other two Jindan disciples flying out of the ship to fish for people at sea, and said with his hands behind his back,

"We don't have to do it ourselves. We are not the only ones who have property in Zhenzhou. It would be bad to take the initiative too much. I'm afraid it will cause conflicts with other families. What's more, it's just a rebel general. If Sanyuan can't clean up the chaos in Zhenzhou, what will happen if Sanyuan can't deal with it?

Jiangshan might as well stop sitting there.

Even if you are really unruly and unruly, hiding behind the scenes and doing whatever you want, matters involving the mortal world will naturally be coordinated by Yuntai Peak, so Fellow Daoist Li does not need to worry."

Xiao Yu'an was now sure that Penglai would not take action, so she staggered and walked away in confusion.

Li Fan was surprised, the world was in such chaos, where did they get the confidence to not worry about things at home?

Without waiting for him to ask, Master Zhou also explained, "Friend Daoist Li, you are no longer just a casual cultivator, but a master of my outer sect in Penglai. You should be more prudent in everything.

What the heck are those military leaders? There are only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and they can be overthrown with the use of magic weapons. But no one wants to get involved in this murderous karma. In the final analysis, the three major factions fighting for the world are involved.

The edges and corners are actually meaningless.

Let me tell you frankly, Yuntai Peak has decided that the Nine Great Mysterious Sects will organize manpower to encircle and suppress Kunlun, the main altar of the divine religion!"

"What!" Li Fan was really shocked, "You want to travel all the way from the East China Sea to expedition to Kunlun? Are you too busy?"

After Zhou Chengxue heard this, he smiled at Li Fan and said nothing.

So Li Fan also understood, "Do it! No wonder you are short of manpower! If you don't go, I will!"

Master Zhou laughed and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are worthy of being able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul through casual cultivation. You do have some wit. You don't have to be like this. A good man has his ambitions in all directions. He lives in troubled times. If he doesn't strive to become famous all over the world, wouldn't he have wasted his life?"

ability?

You don’t have to worry that the Demon Sect seems to be powerful now. This time they stirred up troubles. Although they had the upper hand for a while, they also exposed too many tricks. I have so many masters in Xuanmen. It won’t take long for me to be counted among them.

The direction, the location of Qi number.

Now word has spread from Yuntai Peak that all factions are required to prepare troops and counterattack into the heart of the Demon Sect. I, Penglai, will be joining the ranks of the Nine Great Mysterious Sects, and of course I cannot be absent! Even if I cannot destroy those demon species this time, I still have to do my best.

Just kill a bunch of them and give them a thorough beating!"

So that’s it, Xuanmen is going to take action himself. Yes, the Divine Sect looks so arrogant, but it only gives Immortal Palace a beating, and Xuanmen is actually not damaged at all. Maybe now there is no Beichen Sword Sect to take the lead, all kinds of

The reaction was a bit slow, but this does not mean that the relationship between Xuanmen and the divine religion has improved at all. I think the crusade against the divine religion is a foregone conclusion, it is just a matter of time.

"Oh! Brother Zhou, I feel relieved now that you have said so! Okay! This time, I will use the devil's bastard's head to promote my reputation as a red-haired ghost! Brother Zhou, don't worry! If there are many devil cubs, I will

Click! I pulled my head off and gave it to you as a souvenir! Hahaha! Hahahahahahahaha!"

Seeing Li Fan laughing like crazy, Zhou Chengxue couldn't help but shrink his neck and wiped his sweat.

After Cheng Qianlong was retrieved, everyone continued to sail eastward.

It's a pity that this man named Cheng was very lucky. He probably had a magic weapon with him, and he took medicine to survive. As a result, his whole body was thrown to the point where his tibia was broken and he was paralyzed at a high level. However, he didn't die. He was tied up like a rice dumpling and couldn't move.

Now that he couldn't worship the moon and practice, and it was inconvenient to go to the inner cabin to interact with the female relatives, Li Fan came to him to play. He came up and patted the other person's hanging thigh.

"Boy! Cheng Qianlong, right? Did you see that? I am the outer gate of Taishang Shenzhen Palace to worship Li Tang! You know the elder of the outer gate! Let me tell you! I despise the scum who bully the widow the most! If it weren't for Brother Zhou,

In my face! I'll snap! I'll twist your head off in one go! Your grandfather is also an inner disciple? That just shows the reputation of my red-haired ghost! Remember to go back and ask him to come over and have a fight with me! See if I don't snap!

!one time……"

Zhou Chengxue, "Ahem."

"Brother Zhou, why are you sick? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Fan had no choice but to reattach the broken thigh just now, turned around and asked with concern.

Cheng Qianlong couldn't move, so he looked at Master Zhou begging for mercy.

Zhou Chengxue also rubbed his temples, "Fellow Taoist, please don't embarrass this junior, you are just a newbie, it's not good to offend others..."

Li Fan laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for thinking about me. It doesn't matter! I understand! Don't think I am a reckless man. In fact, I have some rough edges and some fine points. It's all intentional!"

Zhou Chengxue and Cheng Qianlong stared at him with big eyes and small eyes, "...what do you mean?"

So Li Fan picked up the token and gestured, "Look! I'm the outer gate of Shenzhen Palace, right? This guy's grandfather is from Gaozhen Palace. Then when we get to Penglai later, his grandfather will see that I'm moving."

Sun, according to the normal plot, he will definitely come to challenge him. Then I will slap his grandfather's head! ("Ahem!") A beating will not only enhance my reputation, but also show that I stand on the true side of God.

On this boat, there is no room for double-mindedness!

Don’t worry! I’m going to apply for a certificate! I grew up in the mountains, and I have done a lot of things to help the big boss and the second boss, and I understand everything! Just a look from you, and I’ll snap! This guy’s whole family will have their heads screwed up at once!

No problem!"

Cheng Qianlong looked like he was about to faint.

Zhou Chengxue was also stunned for a long time, organized his speech for a while, and then sighed, "Oh, Fellow Daoist Li, Brother Li, I am very pleased that you are so active in joining the gang, but our faction does not have that kind of infighting..."

Li Fan snorted, "Brother Zhou, it doesn't make sense for you to say that! Even though I am a rough guy, I still know that a sect as big as yours has three mountains and nine palaces! There must be factions on the top of the mountains!

I am too honest and I don’t understand those twists and turns. In order to avoid standing in the wrong team in the future, I should first take out his grandfather and give him a good beating to cut off his retreat, to show his loyalty to Shenzhen Palace!"

"How can I show my loyalty like this!" Zhou Chengxue was so big-headed that he had no choice but to drag Li Fan outside, "Oh... Okay, okay, I'll just tell you clearly about our sect, but don't

This mess is dragging me down."

"Oh! Thanks for the advice, Brother Zhou! Come on, I have food and wine here, let's eat and chat!"

Zhou Chengxue was stunned when he saw that Li Fan skillfully set up the table to start the banquet. He saw that those cups of tea were quite elegant, which did not quite fit the painting style of this red-haired ghost. But after thinking about it, he probably got it from someone else.

It was easy to understand that he had robbed him, so he accepted the kindness and began to chat with Li Fan about the secrets of the Penglai inner sect.

Indeed, as Li Fan said, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. A large organization like Penglai does have factions within it. The division of nine palaces from one sect means that there are differences and mountains. Because elites like Xuanmen

In the teacher-teacher system, there will inevitably be an unavoidable problem.

When passing on the title of head, should it be passed on to one’s apprentice, one’s junior brother, or one’s senior uncle?

The most ideal situation is, of course, that the direct disciples of the sect leader are the direct disciples of the sect, and then the senior brothers of the sect leader become the elder protectors of the sect. But what if the junior disciple has a higher level of cultivation and better qualifications than the apprentice? Or maybe the junior disciple's apprentice is better than yours?

What if the apprentice has higher cultivation and better qualifications? If someone is dissatisfied, will there be internal fighting? If there is no internal fighting, will there be division of sects?

Beichen Sword Sect adopts a classic solution, which is to fight with swords. If you don't accept it, you will fight. The one who survives will be the leader.
