It’s not that Lu Yanbing made up his mind to help Li Xuandu, but she felt that these things had nothing to do with the overall situation. As Li Xuandu herself said, except for the old man, everything else was false. The key was the old man’s attitude. If he couldn’t convince the old man. No matter how much you do, it will be useless. Unless Li Xuan can gather the power of the entire sect, but in this case, there is no need for Li Xuan to convince the old man, just do it yourself.

Li Xuandu naturally understood this, but in his opinion, it is always good to know more. He left the sect in July of the sixth year of Tianbao. Now it is February of the seventh year of Tianbao. Half a year has passed. What happened in this sixth year of Tianbao? He does not expect to know everything. , you must always know a general idea and be clear in your mind.

When we finished the talk, it was already midnight, and a bright moon was hanging high tonight.

The two of them left the cave together and came to the wide square outside the Wuyang Hall.

Lu Yanbing looked up at the bright moon and said softly, "I didn't know the moon when I was a child, so I called it a white jade plate. I also suspected that the mirror of the Yaotai was flying in the blue clouds. Such a large white jade plate is the largest night pearl in the world."

Li Xuandu was still blindfolded with a black cloth and sighed: "I heard from my junior sister that I think the moonlight will be very good tonight, but unfortunately I can't see it."

Lu Yanbing hesitated for a moment and said, "I asked Master Nan Kezi. He said that his senior brother's eyes can recover within a period of only one tenth of his life, so there is no need to worry."

"I'm sorry, junior sister is worried." Li Xuan said thank you, and then said, "Then I, as a senior brother, have also repaid my love. The junior sister has been in the world for many years, but what kind of young talent do you like? If there is, senior brother will be fine, too. I will keep your eyes on you so that you will not be deceived by those who are not good at it."

Lu Yanbing was no longer angry at this time and said with a blank expression: "That's really thankful for my senior brother. But my junior sister, I am a little talented and poor in appearance, and I cannot be compared with Su, Gong, Yu, Qin and others. I don’t like me, I don’t like me, and I don’t like me, but others may not like me.”

The so-called Su, Gong, Yu, and Qin means that Su Yunxian, Gongguan, Yu Qingning and Qin Su are four people, two good and two evil spirits. The four people are not only of very high-class backgrounds, excellent qualifications, but also have excellent appearances. He is the four beauties recognized in the world among the younger generation. Of course Lu Yanbing is not ugly. Even if she likes men's clothing on weekdays, it is hard to hide the fact that she is a beauty. However, it is still a little bit far behind the top four.

Li Xuandu said: "These four may not be able to do everything well. After all, only one Su Yunzhang decided to marry, and the other three, the palace officials must inherit the throne of the sect leader of the female sect, Yuqing It is better to take over the position of the sect leader of the Xuannv Sect. You know that the sect leader is forbidden to marry. As for the sect leader, although there is no such rule, he must at least be a big man like the Earth Master Xu Wugui. That's fine, so most of these two people won't marry in this life."

Lu Yanbing said, "There is only one Qin Su left."

Li Xuandu said: "Only Qin Su is left. This woman's whereabouts have always been mysterious. I have been walking in the world for many years and have never seen this person. I have only heard many rumors about her. In my life, Yu Qingning and I fell one after another. After the realm, he ranked third on the Shaoxuan List. Some people said that "Tian Dao" Qin Qing also handed over his sword to her, and she took her to walk around the world. I don't know whether it was true or false."

Lu Yanbing whispered: "It's true."

Li Xuan was not surprised, but said, "The world's number one sword. If there were no such bad things, I would rather understand and see what the differences and similarities with the "Blood Sword" are."

Lu Yanbing smiled but said nothing.

Li Xuan didn't have the "mind" attitude, so he naturally couldn't see Lu Yanbing's expression. If Lu Yanbing didn't make a sound, Li Xuan would have no way to guess. This was the disadvantage of not being able to see things with both eyes.

While talking, the two of them came to the gate of Shaoyang Palace. At this time, there were still two people standing in front of Shaoyang Palace. They are also a man and a woman. Although they look young, they should actually be people who have been in the Spring and Autumn Period. They rely on their realm and cultivation and have the skills to keep their faces alive, so that they can look like a young man.

But for some reason, the five guard Taoists did not show up.

Li Xuandu's eyes were covered in black cloth and said softly: "In the middle of the night, Danxia Peak refused to give in to foreign guests again, how could anyone?"

Before Lu Yanbing could answer, one of them bowed and said, "Thirty-six Halls, Li Rubai, the head of Tianping Hall, has met Mr. Fourth and Mr. Fifth."

The other woman then gave a blessing and said, "Seventy-two Islands, the owner of the abbot's island, Li Ruju, have met Mr. Fourth and Fifth."

Li Xuan did not agree immediately, but said to Lu Yanbing: "In the past few years, the 36th Lord and the 72th Island Lord have changed half of it, but I don't recognize it."

The woman named Li Ruju smiled and said, "Mr. Fourth does not need to recognize us, as long as we recognize Mr. Fourth."

Li Xuandu held the bamboo stick in his hand and asked, "Who asked you to come? Mr. Third? Or Mr. Six?"

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, turned his head and looked at Lu Yanbing beside him: "It's not Mr. Fifth, right?"

Lu Yanbing felt a trembling heart and shook his head and said, "Senior brother is too arrogant. I am a little slight in the sect. How can I adjust one of the thirty-six lords and the head of the 72 island lords?"

Li Xuan laughed it off.

The sects are very different from each other. Sects such as Donghua Sect and Shenxiao Sect are like aristocratic families, with a person in charge, several assistants, and the distinction between direct and side branches. However, sects such as Qingwei Sect and Wudao Sect are no longer comparable to aristocratic families. They are like a small court with all the organs.

If the old sect leader is regarded as the emperor, then the thirty-six hall masters and seventy-two island masters are the civil and military officials, and the six gentlemen are the six princes. If the emperor has not authorized it, the princes have no power to command the officials, but the officials usually choose to rely on a prince to serve him for the future. But if the officials are unwilling to rely on them, or are hostile to each other, then the princes have no power to depose the officials.

In other words, Li Xuandu and Lu Yanbing cannot dispatch these two hall masters and island masters, nor can they suppress them with authority.

Li Xuandu looked at the woman: "There are countless islands on the East China Sea, among which three fairy islands are the most famous, namely Penglai Island, Fangzhang Island, and Yingzhou Island. Among them, Penglai Island is the secluded place of the old sect master, and Yingzhou Island is classified under the name of Tiangang Hall of the Thirty-Six Halls. The remaining Fangzhang Island is the head of the seventy-two islands and has a very special status."

Li Ruju said softly: "Yes."

Li Xuandu stared at her and said: "Although I don't know you, I have heard of your name. I remember that in the ninth year of Wude, you were the owner of Zizhi Island, right?"

Li Ruju said: "That's right."

Li Xuandu sighed and said: "You are now the head of the seventy-two island owners, and you have been promoted so quickly. Now the third master is in charge of the sect. Why does he value you so much? Are you in a high realm, or are you capable and capable?"

"I am loyal to this sect and do my best in everything. In the past ten years, I have accumulated merits and have been promoted to the owner of Fangzhang Island." Li Ruju said in a deep voice: "I wonder if the fourth master has any advice?"
