Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 1137: Chapter 327: Feng Zhaoyang Arc (10)_4

There was a knock on the door.

The two nodded to each other after hearing a message from their subordinates.

”They come as soon as they’re called.” Li Erbing marveled, ”Yuchi has arrived.”

”Hmm.” Li Yixun cleaned his pipe thoroughly and slipped it into the back of his neck, ”I’ll head over then.”

”Sure, I’ll go find Niantao. After about an incense stick’s time, I’ll have her come over to find you all. I’ll have a good chat with Niantao, so she’ll treat Zong Liangqing better, and we can try to find that troublesome girl a husband. Otherwise, she’s been like a king in our house.”

”Alright!”

”Second brother, you’re a good man!”

”Haha!”

...

In the Li Family’s conference hall, Yuchi was sipping tea while watching Li Yixun step over the threshold and walk in.

Oh, isn’t this Li Yixun, the same official from last night, the one who directly swore, with his eyes red and tearing up on the spot? So furious about the matter last night, yet today he’s all smiles?

How so cheerful?

Yuchi realized at once, these people were undoubtedly in cahoots with each other. Wang Haoran must have privately communicated with them yesterday evening, persuading himself to come over and meet them. Certainly a good outcome, at least saving much trouble breaking the ice.

Breaking the ice doesn’t come cheaply; it’s often made of gold.

”Hello, Fellow Daoist Zong.”

Li Yixun glanced at Yuchi and caught sight of the peach blossoms in Yuchi’s hand, which was quite unexpected. Was he really bringing peach blossoms over?

Clearly, a man from the State Capital, strong in reading people’s expressions, knowing his daughter likes peach blossoms, he brought them over to gift her.

”Good morning, Official Li!”

Yuchi, unaware of his thoughts, also cheerfully said, ”I came to see Official Li mainly because of your conversation last night.”

”Wang Daren thought for a long time and felt he hadn’t handled it well. To prevent the matter from escalating and affecting other citizens of the State Capital, he decided to privatize the issue, simplifying it into a sparring match.”

”If Official Li’s side wins, Wang Daren will stop supporting Li Ruolan, and if Wang Daren’s side wins, I hope Official Li’s side can support this matter.”

Li Yixun, seated in the main position, listened to Yuchi’s words without any hint of surprise, nodded easily: ”I understand Wang Daren’s perspective. We anticipated such an outcome, so I ask Fellow Daoist Zong to relay our agreement.”

The complaints back then were merely verbal, a keyboard rant, but calm was needed later. Whether Wang Haoran or Li Yixun, such matters mustn’t become chaos, as the State Capital’s stability is vital.

Not to mention, they’d schemed ahead.

Without the inhabitants realizing, they would find a secluded spot outside the State Capital for the spar, the best choice.

Quietly resolving the issue.

”Thank you for recognizing this, and for contributing to the State Capital’s peace, making you truly exceptional, Official Li.” Yuchi flattered.

”Hahaha, not at all; living in the State Capital, we focus on its stability, which determines the Third State’s stability. I assume Fellow Daoist Zong is aware of the Sixth State’s circumstances, with war there.”

”It’s miserable.”

”Many refugees driven away, ultimately due to their State Capital’s inaction.”

Li Yixun said with a smile.

”Yes, I know about the Sixth State.”

Yuchi nodded, smiling brightly: ”They lack the reliability our State Capital provides, leading many citizens to suffer. Though I haven’t visited the Sixth State, I imagine it’s no better than hell on earth. I wonder what Official Li anticipates for the Sixth State’s future battles?”

The two completely overlooked the seemingly important sparring invitation, as it’s merely a formality, for show.

Being among their own, naturally no timid behavior is shown. Yuchi’s calm demeanor is commendable, projecting kindness and promising prospects as a sly old fox.

Regarding the Sixth State, what does Li Yixun think? He pondered: ”Without harsh suppression tactics, the Sixth State’s conflict may intensify. But we generally don’t worry, as cultivators have already headed to the Sixth State’s pass, where it’s under martial law.”
