Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

After listening to Zhao Gui's analysis, the head of the An family was shocked.

He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Brother Zhao, if it is true as you said, then we must find out this hidden force."

"Otherwise, the alliance between the An family and the Zhao family will never have peace."

Zhao Gui nodded and said solemnly: "That makes sense. I feel the same way."

"Our Zhao family has also encountered several inexplicable attacks. Although the losses were not great, each time it made us alert and very annoying. We have to deal with it quickly."

"But the headache is that after our private investigation, we have not yet found out who the real culprit is."

The head of the An family frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Brother Zhao, do you think it could be the Wang family from the same county?"

"They have always coveted our resources and power, and there have been disputes between us. Especially recently, the Wang family has been active in secret, and it seems that they are planning something."

"If there is anyone who least wants us to join forces, it's probably the Wang family."

Zhao Gui heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he nodded:
"I have the same guess, but the specific situation still needs further investigation. We need more evidence to confirm the Wang family's conspiracy."

The head of the An family nodded in agreement: "Next, our two families will work together to send people to secretly investigate the movements of the Wang family and strengthen the defense of the An family. How about that?"

Zhao Gui smiled and said, "Okay."

While the two family heads were discussing, An Yiqi was in the Zhao family's guest room, staying with a group of young masters and young ladies of the Zhao family.

A group of people were staying together at the order of the family, chatting happily. The topics ranged from spiritual cultivation to interesting family stories.

One of the young men was Zhao Po, the son of the head of the Zhao family.

He looked at An Yiqi with admiration, his eyes filled with deep affection.

During the chat, Zhao Po kept looking for opportunities to talk to An Yiqi, showing concern for her injuries and asking about her experience in cultivation.

An Yiqi was not stupid. She saw what Zhao Bo meant, so she acted a little perfunctory and spoke a little coldly. It was obvious that she didn't want to have anything to do with the young master of the Zhao family.

Especially Zhao Bo, a young man from an aristocratic family with slightly poor character.

That's right.

In the Zhao family, although Zhao Bo's reputation is not as bad as Lu Yunlang's, he is also a top-notch person, so An Yiqi seems indifferent.

But Zhao Po is very thick-skinned.

He keeps pestering An Yiqi, which is very annoying.

Fortunately, among the other young men of the Zhao family, there were some who did not get along with Zhao Bo, and they helped An Yiqi to resist harassment from time to time.

At the same time, the children of the An family followed to protect An Yiqi.

In the end, Zhao Bo was not harassed too much.

See this scene.

Although Zhao Bo was a little unhappy, he did not get angry.

Wait until everyone leaves.

Zhao Pei walked along the winding corridor and came straight to the main house of the family, where he found his father Zhao Gui.

"What do you want from me so late?"

Zhao Gui had just finished discussing with the head of the An family and was thinking about how to investigate the manipulator behind the scenes. He took over and saw his son coming over, so he asked.

Zhao Bo heard this and said solemnly: "Father, I have a favor to ask of you."

Zhao Gui was slightly stunned when he saw his son's serious expression, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Bo said bluntly: "Father, I want to marry An Yiqi."

Zhao Gui frowned slightly when he heard this, and thought secretly in his heart.

He knew that An Yiqi had a special status and was one of the apples of the An family's eye. If the Zhao family could marry into the An family, it would be of great benefit to the Zhao family.

But this matter is of great importance and cannot be decided lightly.

Zhao Gui pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is of great importance and must be considered carefully."

This is said politely.

You know your own son well.

On the surface, he said that he was considering it carefully, but in fact, he just felt that others looked down on his son.

If you rush into marriage, you may end up being rejected.

"Father, we are now cooperating with the An family. Marriage will help to establish a deeper connection. I think as long as you propose it, they will definitely agree."

Seeing that his father had no great desire, Zhao Po could not help but say, "I think mother would also think this is feasible."

As Zhao Bo brought up his current situation, Zhao Gui couldn't help but look helpless, and then said, "I'll go ask the An family about their attitude in a couple of days."

"Thank you, father, for your support." Zhao Bo couldn't help but show ecstasy on his face when he heard that.

"I still have some things to do. Please go down. If you have nothing else to do, please don't bother me."

Zhao Gui waved his hand and spoke.

"Yes!" Zhao Bo turned around and left with a happy look on his face after hearing that.

The next morning.

When Zhao Gui was discussing the details of the cooperation between the two families with the head of the An family, he was preparing to talk about Zhao Bo's marriage.

He was sitting in front of a carved wooden table. He took a deep breath and said straight to the point, "Brother An, in addition to what we discussed last time, I have another favor to ask of you."

Upon hearing this, the Patriarch of the An Family subconsciously asked, "Brother Zhao, if you have anything to say, please feel free to speak up. You are welcome."

Zhao Gui nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "My son Zhao Bo has long admired your niece An Yiqi, and is willing to further consolidate the relationship between our two families through marriage."

Upon hearing this, the head of the An family frowned slightly and thought secretly in his heart.

That’s what the Zhao family’s patriarch thinks.

Coincidentally with him.

If An Yiqi could marry into the Zhao family, it would indeed strengthen the alliance between the two families.

However, since An Yiqi's father has a high status in the family and dotes on his children very much, he respects the children's wishes in everything, so the marriage cannot be forced.

Thinking of this, the head of the An family pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is of great importance. I need to discuss it with the senior management of the family."

Zhao Gui nodded and said, "Of course, Brother An should consider it carefully."

Upon hearing this, the head of the An family did not talk more about this topic and continued to talk about cooperation.

Wait until the conversation is over.

That night.

The head of the An family called An Yiqi's aunt An Jin to the secret room, stated the Zhao family's request, and signaled her to persuade An Yiqi.

Orders to the master of the house.

An Jin nodded in agreement.

The next morning, An Jin came to the house where An Yiqi lived and knocked on the door gently.

After a while, An Yiqi pushed open the door and asked in confusion, "Aunt, why are you here?"

An Jin walked into the room with a smile, pulled An Yiqi to sit down, and said softly: "Yiqi, I need to talk to you about something."

"We were ambushed on the road last time, and some things were not said directly."

"We all have some free time right now, so I'd like to chat with you."

An Yiqi nodded and looked at her aunt in confusion.

An Jin sighed and said, "The head of the Zhao family came to propose marriage, hoping that you can marry Zhao Bo to consolidate the alliance between the two families."

An Yiqi's face changed slightly when she heard this. Although she had a premonition in her heart, she still felt unhappy.

She knew Zhao Bo's character and was unwilling to marry him.

After a moment of silence, An Yiqi said, "Aunt, I don't like Zhao Bo, and I don't want to marry him."

An Jin nodded and continued, "I understand your feelings, but you have to know that this marriage will be of great benefit to both of our families." "The Zhao family is willing to make concessions on the distribution of mines and spiritual fields. This is a rare opportunity for our An family."

An Yiqi frowned slightly, still resisting in her heart. She said firmly:
"Aunt, I know the importance of marriage, but I really don't want to marry Zhao Bo. Please understand me."

Seeing An Yiqi's firm attitude, An Jin couldn't help but sigh.

She patted An Yiqi's hand and said, "Think about this again."

While the two were talking.

Suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps.

An An family guard ran in in a panic, gasping for breath and saying, "Oh no! The Zhao family was attacked by monsters!"

"The head of the family asked the two of you to go and discuss this matter with him immediately."

An Jin and An Yiqi's faces changed slightly when they heard this. They immediately stood up and followed the guards to find the head of the An family.

The head of the An family was already waiting in the private room. He had a serious expression on his face, and a group of senior members of the An family were standing beside him.

Watching An Yiqi and the other person come in.

The head of the An family nodded slightly without saying much.

He looked at the Zhao family's guards and asked in a deep voice, "What is the current situation of the Zhao family?"

The guard gasped and said, "A large number of monsters suddenly appeared outside the Zhao family mine. There are so many of them that the defense line is in danger!"

"At present, Patriarch Zhao Gui has sent people to rescue them. Before he left, he specifically asked me to pass on a message, inviting you to help."

The head of the An family frowned and immediately ordered: "Call the family guards immediately to support the Zhao family!"

An Jin then expressed her willingness to go along, and she said to the head of the An family: "I will lead a team of guards to help them resist the monsters together."

Seeing this, An Yiqi said, "Aunt, I want to go too!"

Always stayed in Zhao's house.

An Yiqi always felt bored and didn't want to see Zhao Bo from the Zhao family, so she chose to follow him.

The head of the An family hesitated for a moment, but seeing An Yiqi's determined eyes, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, you must be careful."

Except An Yiqi and her aunt.

Two other elders chose to go together.

Under the arrangement of the An family, an elite guard was assembled and led by An Jin, An Yiqi and two elders, and quickly rushed to the Zhao family mine.

Along the way, everyone was in a heavy mood, and no one expected that monsters would attack at this time.

Continuous changes.

It made everyone feel depressed.

When everyone arrived at the Zhao family mine, the scene before them was shocking.

A large number of monsters are frantically attacking the Zhao family's defense line. The Zhao family's guards are fighting desperately, but the situation is very critical and Zhao family guards are constantly dying.

For a moment, spiritual arts were brilliant, various spells were bombarded, magical weapons collided, and the battle seemed quite fierce.

An Jin acted decisively and commanded the An family's troops to join the battle.

An Yiqi summoned her magic sword and fought the monsters together with the two elders.

She was an expert swordsman. As she swung her sword, streaks of light appeared, and she quickly killed several monsters.

With the support of the An family monks and under the leadership of the Zhao family guards, they gradually stabilized their defenses, and the monsters' offensive began to weaken.

After a fierce battle, the monster was finally repelled.

However, the joy did not last long.

In the blink of an eye, they discovered that a huge glazed light shield was rising from the Zhao family's mansion, and at the same time, a surge of demonic energy was erupting from inside.

"Not good, luring the tiger away from the mountain!"

Seeing the demonic energy surging in the Zhao family mansion and the formation forming, everyone's expressions changed.

However, just as everyone went back to support.

All the monsters that had just left were lying in ambush on the roadside. They suddenly rushed out and engaged in a fierce battle with An Yiqi and the others.

What's even worse is.

During the fierce battle with the ambushing monsters, the air around them suddenly became extremely heavy, followed by a strong sense of oppression.

Everyone looked up suddenly and saw a group of men in black rushing out of the woods and quickly joining the battle.

"It's these men in black again!"

Seeing the mysterious man in black attacking again, both the cultivators from the An family and the Zhao family, their expressions changed slightly.

These men in black were agile and ruthless, and they were obviously rigorously trained killers.

Their appearance instantly worsened the situation. The guards of the An and Zhao families fell one after another, and the situation took a turn for the worse.

What’s even more terrifying is that there is actually a Foundation Establishment Master among the men in black. He stood in the distance, looking coldly at An Yiqi and the others, his eyes full of mockery and ridicule.

“Even the Foundation Establishment Master is here!”

An Yiqi's heart sank, knowing that today's situation was extremely bad.

She gritted her teeth and swung her sword to block the attack of a man in black, but the opponent's strength was far beyond her expectations, and he knocked her back several steps with one sword.

Seeing this, An Jin rushed to support, and the two of them worked together to barely hold off the attack of a black-clothed man at the eighth level of the Qi training realm.

"A group of ants, but they are quite resilient!"

The Foundation Building Master who was at a distance glanced at everyone, sneered, and walked slowly forward, saying with a contemptuous tone.
Everyone was angry, but there was nothing they could do.

For a moment, I couldn't help but fall into despair.

"It's time to send you on your way!"

The Foundation Establishment Master, who was completely covered in a cloak, burst into aura.

However, just as he was about to make a move, a loud noise was heard in the sky.

The next moment, a huge palm fell from the sky, bringing endless pressure, and directly slapped the man in black and the monster.

The men in black and the monsters were caught off guard and were hit hard by the giant palm, falling to the ground seriously injured.

The face of the Foundation Establishment Master also changed drastically, and he hurriedly circulated his spiritual power to resist, but he was still shocked and retreated repeatedly, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

"This"

An Yiqi, An Jin and others were slightly stunned when they saw this. Then they looked up and saw a figure falling from the sky and landing steadily on the ground.

The attacker was wearing dark brocade robes, had a handsome face, and eyes like pools of water, calm and deep.

"Interesting, you can run into monsters while traveling."

The mysterious and powerful man who suddenly arrived was naturally Jiang Qiong.

He set out from Yaoyun Valley and was originally heading for the neighboring dynasty, but on the way, he happened to pass by Pingyun County.

Just came here.

His powerful spiritual sense detected the fluctuations of demonic energy in the neighboring Luofeng County.

Sense the demonic energy.

Jiang Qiong was naturally not polite at all.

He immediately rushed over and suppressed the monster and the man in black.

shhh-

With the snap of Jiang Qiong's fingers, a large number of monsters and men in black were killed, leaving only the Foundation Establishment Masters and some monsters at higher levels waiting to be interrogated.

Get rid of the monsters and the men in black.

Jiang Qiong turned his gaze towards the monks present and saw An Yiqi at a glance. He couldn't help but look a little surprised. (End of this chapter)
