Chapter 685: Harsh Intentions and Fake Compromise

Li Yi just stopped on a small hill and saw five cultivators standing in front of him. These cultivators were all cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Among them, judging from their attire, three of them were cultivators from Yunshan Academy, and there were two others whom Li Yi did not know. Although Li Yi was somewhat dissatisfied with the three people from Yunshan Academy, he did not say anything.

He did not get along with the cultivators from Yunshan Academy. The alliance actually sent three cultivators from Yunshan Academy in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul at once. Li Yi had to suspect that this was intentional and even had some ill intentions.

Among them, there were two cultivators, Gu Qun, who Li Yi knew and had a conflict in front of Sihai Tower, and another cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul whose name he did not know.

As for the other person, Li Yi also had some impression of him. This person was the master of Fu Dao, Wang Daoxuan, who had a conflict with the monk surnamed Jiang in the holy land of Wanxiang Sect. At that time, this person was just possessed by spirit and attacked the holy land. Unexpectedly, he actually saw the real person today. Li Yi was very surprised.

As for the other person, he was an old man, holding a bamboo stick in his hand and wearing a tattered Taoist robe. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary old Taoist priest. It was hard to imagine that he was a cultivator in the middle stage of Yuanying.

Finally, one was an old woman. The old woman had wrinkles all over her face and silver hair, like an old man in his twilight years who might fall down at any time. The old woman held a dragon-headed cane in her hand, and her eyes were extremely sharp.

Looking at these people, Li Yi hurriedly stepped forward to greet them and said, "I am Li Yi from Wanxiang Sect. Nice to meet you fellow Taoists. Are you the fellow Taoists going to Black Cloud Ridge for support?"

After hearing what Li Yi said, the rest of the people did not speak, but the middle-aged Confucian scholar Wang Daoxuan stood up and said with a smile, "Yes, we are the ones who are going to Black Cloud Ridge for support. I am Wang Daoxuan from Yunshan Academy, but Fellow Daoist Li is a little late.

As for the two people behind me, one is Junior Brother Gu Qun, and the other is Elder Shen He. Fellow Daoist Li should have seen them before."

"Oh, it turns out to be Dean Wang of Yunshan Academy. It's a pleasure to meet you. I naturally know the two people behind you, but I don't know the other two fellow Taoists. Can Fellow Daoist Wang introduce them to me?" Li Yi She asked with a smile, showing no hostility at all, nor any dissatisfaction with Wang Daoxuan.

After Li Yi finished speaking, the old man in the tattered Taoist robe stepped forward without being introduced, and said: "I am from the Thirteen Nations Alliance, the Dead Tree Sect, Zhuying, and I am honored to meet Fellow Daoist Li. Fellow Daoist Li is really young. He has entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul at such a young age. His future is limitless."

"Yes! I heard that Fellow Daoist Li has only condensed his Nascent Soul for a few years, and he has entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul so quickly. It's incredible. I am from the Thirteen Nations Alliance, Long Wan from the Tianhe Sect. Others call me Granny Long. As for Fellow Daoist, you can call me whatever you want. I am here to thank Fellow Daoist Li Yi for coming to help us fight against foreign enemies together." The old woman said in a hoarse voice.

After hearing what the two said, Li Yi smiled amiably again and said, "Oh, it turns out to be Taoist Zhuying from the Deadwood Sect and Taoist Long from the Tianhe Sect. I have long heard of your great names. It is really an honor for Li Yi to meet you two Taoists today.

This time, to fight against the Di tribe, I still have to rely on the efforts of the two Taoists. I have just entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and have not even consolidated my cultivation, but I rushed here.

It is also a very lucky thing to be able to enter the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. My aptitude is just average. Fellow Taoists, please don't make fun of me."

After hearing what Li Yi said, everyone's face changed slightly. They looked at each other and felt that Li Yi was not frivolous at all, nor did he have the arrogance of a young man.

Among them, the one with the biggest change in expression was Wang Daoxuan from Yunshan Academy. His expression obviously changed and became extremely gloomy, because he did not realize that Li Yi's cultivation had actually broken through the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. This was also the result of Li Yi's deliberate suppression of his cultivation.

The man's expression changed very quickly, but Li Yi still caught it. Li Yi sneered in his heart. This man really had bad intentions towards him.

"Fellow Daoist Li, you are too modest. Back then, outside Tianyuan City, Fellow Daoist Li Yi relied on his cultivation in the early stage of the Nascent Soul to fight Wu An Jun Wu Ji. Now he has entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. I think even Wu Ji is not a match for Fellow Daoist Li!

Earlier, there were some misunderstandings between Junior Brother Gu and Junior Brother Shen of our Yunshan Academy and Fellow Daoist Li. This is also the reason why I came here this time. I hope to resolve the grievances with Fellow Daoist Li." Wang Daoxuan said very seriously, with a very sincere look.

After hearing this, Li Yi was also very surprised. He didn't expect that Wang Daoxuan would do this. If it was in the past, maybe Li Yi would believe it.

However, the last time he met Su Mei'er, the other party told him that the ancestor of Yunshan Academy, Wang Hongyu, said in person that if Wang Meng died, Li Yi would be buried with him. The other party was a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, so he would not change what he said. Li Yi knew that Wang Meng had been searched by him and his Nascent Soul was destroyed.

Since the other party wanted to pretend to be generous and a good person, Li Yi also did a good job on the surface.

Li Yi pretended to be displeased and said: "Fellow Daoist Wang, what you said is a bit serious. There are only some misunderstandings between me and fellow Daoist Gu Qun and fellow Daoist Shen He. As long as the misunderstandings with fellow Daoist Gu are resolved, everything will be fine."

After hearing this, Zhu Ying and Long Wan looked at each other, with some worry in their eyes. They were all old monsters who had lived for hundreds and thousands of years. How could the sarcasm in these superficial words be hidden from them? The hearts of the two of them were full of worry.

At this time, Long Wan spoke and said seriously: "Fellow Daoist Li is right. This time, we need to work together to deal with the Di clan cultivators. There can be no grudges between us. Any misunderstandings must be resolved. On the battlefield, we need to help each other, otherwise, we may not be able to come back."

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Long is right. I think so too. We need to let go of any grudges we have, otherwise, we will be the only ones who are unlucky." Taoist Zhu Ying also echoed on the side.
