For this cousin, because he left early that year, he no longer had a deep impression, and naturally it was impossible to judge his position. However, at this time, the other party's attitude was extremely clear, and he clearly chose to stand on his side.
Li Tianlan looked at the crowd surrounding Li Huazhang again.
The dozen or so people were not a large-scale gang in Tiandu Purgatory, but several of them were very familiar to Li Tianlan. When Li Tianlan looked over, they nodded slightly, raised the corners of their mouths, and showed a smile.
"Counsel Li, when Mr. Li passed away, Young Master Hua Wu had not yet been born, so Mr. Li chose to let His Majesty Dong Huang temporarily control the Li family."
The chubby Zuo Keqing took a deep look at Li Huazhang: "I still say the same thing. The Li family is the Li family of the Li family. Naturally, the Li family should inherit it. Now the Li family is divided into two and has become the East Palace.
and Tiandu Purgatory, this is definitely not a situation that Mr. Li wants to see. If he were still here, he would definitely hope that Young Master Hua Wu could slowly integrate the power of Tiandu Purgatory and the East Palace to make the Li family strong again.
stand up."
"I am from the Li family."
Li Huazhang said in a cold voice: "But who doesn't know that the Li family's current power is mainly concentrated in Tiandu Purgatory. The East Palace is the foundation laid down by Tianlan, and their main body is the Reincarnation Palace. What does it have to do with the Li family? Zuo
Guest, I understand that you regard Hua Wu as the young master of Tiandu Purgatory. But the Li family is the Li family of Tianlan, and the East Palace is also the East Palace of Tianlan. We do not argue whether Hua Wu inherits the Li family.
Qualifications, at least, he is not qualified to inherit the Eastern Palace."
"joke!"
A somewhat sharp voice sounded from behind the crowd.
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised an arc that was almost difficult to detect.
coming.
The purpose of his coming here today is to see what kind of monsters and monsters there are in Tiandu Purgatory now. The more such people come out, the better.
An old man who looked close to sixty years old walked out of the separated crowd and said coldly: "Isn't there the power of the Li family in the East Palace? The foundation of the East Palace was laid by the Li family, and later the Palace of Reincarnation
I joined because of His Majesty the Eastern Emperor."
The old man paused, looked directly into Li Tianlan's eyes, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, do you think that you no longer belong to the Li family and are just Donghuang?"
Li Tianlan looked at him quietly.
The old man in front of me looks the same as Zuo Keqing, but they are completely different.
The latter's eyes were calm when he stood up.
But the old man in front of him had flashing eyes, obviously with other calculations.
"Who are you?"
Li Tianlan asked directly.
"Codename Tengu."
The old man smiled and said: "Thanks to His Highness Kuangtu Li, I joined Tiandu Purgatory five years ago and am now the Chief of Staff of Tiandu Purgatory."
"So, you are not from the Li family?"
Li Tianlan's voice was cold.
"Tiandu Purgatory belongs to the Li family. I belong to Tiandu Purgatory, and naturally I also belong to the Li family."
Tengu said with a smile: "I just don't know if His Majesty Donghuang still recognizes his identity as a member of the Li family?"
"I naturally belong to the Li family."
Li Tianlan sneered.
Li Huazhang frowned slightly and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Tengu nodded and said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty, just admit it. You are naturally a member of the Li family, but you are not a member of the Li family. I don't know this, do you admit it?"
There was a commotion in the crowd.
Li Tianlan frowned.
The Tengu seemed to be completely relaxed and sneered: "I have talked about this with His Highness Li Kuangtu. Your Majesty once claimed to be the legitimate grandson of Mr. Li, and everyone regarded you as the young master of the Li family. That's why you have
Current status. In other words, all of us believe that His Highness Li Kuangtu is your biological father."
"But what's the truth? Your Highness Li Kuangtu told me personally that you have no blood relationship with him. Mr. Li only has one son, Your Highness, but Your Majesty is not His Highness's son, so are you considered a member of the Li family?"
The commotion in the crowd eerily calmed down.
This matter is no longer a secret, especially for Tiandu Purgatory, it is an open matter.
The East Palace is in full bloom.
However, Tiandu Purgatory has been in decline over the past two years.
In order to stabilize his position, Li Kuangtu had already made this matter public.
This is also one of the reasons why some elders of the Li family are in a dilemma when they yearn for Li Tianlan but stay in Tiandu Purgatory.
Li Tianlan did not speak, but looked at Tiangu silently, seemingly unable to refute.
The Tengu's smile gradually widened, and the expression on his old face that already had some wrinkles gradually became a bit playful.
He believed that Li Tianlan would not dare to kill him today.
If it had been when he first appeared, it would still be possible for Li Tianlan to suddenly take action.
But now he has named Li Tianlan's identity.
He is a member of the Li family, but he is also an outsider to the Li family.
Under this premise, if Li Tianlan kills him, it will only make people think that he is angry and embarrassed, and may even cause public outrage.
The most important thing is that Kuangtu Li is now dead.
If Kuangtu Li was alive, the Tengu would naturally not dare to stand up and make irresponsible remarks.
But now that Kuangtu Li is dead, Tengu steps forward and becomes a hero who fully protects Kuangtu Li's widow and young child. This status is enough to make Li Tianlan dare not kill him.
From this standpoint, once Li Tianlan kills him, he will never be able to conquer Tiandu Purgatory again.
When he stood up to defend the interests of Fenghuang and Li Huawu, he was safeguarding the interests of the Li family. No matter what everyone's specific stance was, there were absolutely very few people who really wanted Li Tianlan to kill Li Huawu, and even Li Huazhang would not agree.
He could reluctantly accept that it was not easy for Li Tianlan to kill Li Kuangtu, and it was natural that the two sides were hostile and had life and death issues. However, Li Huawu was only a two-year-old child and was of Li blood. Now he pointed out that Li Tianlan was an outsider. These
How could anyone tolerate Li Tianlan killing Li Huawu?
As long as Li Tianlan can't touch Li Huawu's mother and son, then he can't touch his Tiangu.
To a certain extent, he and Zuo Xian are the same, but they are completely different.
Zuo Xian is just a guest of Tiandu Purgatory. His status is not low, but it cannot be said to be too high. He can only be regarded as a senior member of Tiandu Purgatory and a core member. He stood up to defend Li Huawu and his son, and even had the audacity to Jiangdong Palace.
Treating him as a part of the Li family means advancing before retreating. He is extremely loyal to Kuangtu Li. All he does is try his best to protect the interests of Tiandu Purgatory. Naturally, he will not want the East Palace. All he wants is to do his best.
To protect a small part of Tiandu Purgatory's core interests, Li Huawu still has hope for a comeback in the future.
Tengu is the chief of staff of Tiandu Purgatory. He is the absolute core high-level executive of Tiandu Purgatory. His power position can be said to be among the top five. In terms of strength, compared to Li Ming, Tengu is not inferior at all. He protects Li Huawu and his son.
It can also be said that he is advancing at the expense of retreat, but what he wants is to protect the entire Tiandu Purgatory.
Who doesn’t know about Li Tianlan’s life experience in Tiandu Purgatory?
Zuo Xian naturally knew it, but he knew it but didn't say it.
But Tengu directly pointed this out.
Just from the difference in this point, it can be seen that the motivations of the two are completely different.
The former is really to protect the Lord.
The latter, on the other hand, creates a situation that is beneficial to themselves and then competes for benefits.
The playful expression on the Tengu's face became more and more obvious.
Today's situation is simply a good thing for him. If he doesn't grasp it, he is afraid that he will be struck by lightning.
"As far as I know, Your Majesty is just a child adopted by Mr. Li back then."
"Lao Li taught His Majesty martial arts and raised His Majesty as an adult. He also sincerely hopes that Your Majesty can help the Li family to rise."
Tengu smiled and continued: "Everyone knows many things, but there are also many things that everyone does not know. His Highness Li Kuangtu talked to me a lot during his lifetime. Today, I will talk to you.
Let’s talk about Mr. Li.”
"In order to revive the Li family, Mr. Li made third-hand arrangements back then."
"The first-hand arrangement was naturally His Majesty. He kept Your Majesty by his side and taught Li everything he had learned."
"And his second-hand arrangement is Tiandu Purgatory. He constantly arranged for veterans of the Li family to fake death and escape and join Tiandu Purgatory, which is why he has the current arrangement."
"What we are going to talk about now is the third-hand arrangement. Mr. Li secretly adopted an adopted daughter. He also passed on all the Li family's secrets, including Sword Twenty-Four, to her, and has maintained a relationship with her for many years.
Secret connection, at the same time, Mr. Li also transferred one of Li’s works from that year
The property was secretly handed over to this adopted daughter."
"On this point, apart from Mr. Li and the adopted daughter, only His Highness Kuangtu Li knows about the existence of his adopted daughter."
"The relationship between the two brothers and sisters is very good. Although they don't meet often, they share the same goals and are both talented."
"Back then, the adopted daughter was in charge of part of the Li family's wealth, and she also received the true martial arts inheritance of the Li family. Coupled with her outstanding talent, she successfully entered the invincible realm."
Tengu laughed: "After entering the invincible realm, the adopted daughter established a force and also established a fund on the surface."
In the crowd, the expressions of many elites from Tiandu Purgatory have gradually changed.
Tengu's clear voice continued to echo: "Everyone should have thought that the adopted daughter is the master of the Reincarnation Palace. She established the Reincarnation Palace and also established the Shengshi Fund on the surface."
"In fact, everything in today's East Palace originated from the Li family. The relationship between His Highness Li Kuangtu and the brother and sister of the Palace Master of Samsara is very good. This has been confirmed for a long time. Don't forget that Tiandu Purgatory can
The reason why I successfully appeared in the dark world and was able to occupy the East Island in the first place was because the Lord of Samsara Palace initiated the decisive battle in Tiandu."
The tengu's words were resounding.
The weird atmosphere continues to spread inside Tiandu Purgatory.
Someone is thoughtful.
Some people looked surprised.
Someone suddenly realized it.
Some people are doubtful.
Tengu's smile became more and more calm. He had already expected all this, and everything he said could be justified without key evidence. For example, the Lord of Samsara Palace did know Li's Sword Twenty-Four, and even her
Martial arts is the twenty-four swords.
Another example is the decisive battle in Tiandu. From now on, it seems that the Palace of Reincarnation is indeed helping Tiandu Purgatory officially enter the world.
These can all be explained.
As for the truth, is it important?
Even if Li Honghe is dead, he will not be denied.
Even if Kuangtu Li dies, he will not deny him.
The Lord of Samsara Palace is also dead, let alone denying him.
Without these key witnesses, what could Li Tianlan use to deny him?
Moreover, if you are so dignified and dignified, you will become red-faced and thick-necked when you argue with him?
How can it be?
Ranked first in the world's god list and invincible in the world, such a strong man would definitely disdain to argue with himself, but under the current situation, it is difficult for him to kill himself. Under such a deadlock, Li Tianlan's best choice is to
Just leave temporarily.
The Tengu took two steps forward, with unconcealable pride in his eyes.
As long as Li Tianlan leaves, he will become the hero who protects Li Huawu's mother and son today. As the chief of staff of Tiandu Purgatory, he naturally has his own power in Tiandu Purgatory. And Li Tianlan wants to leave today. In order to save his face, he will inevitably bring
Take away the group of people loyal to him headed by Li Huazhang.
Dawn and Dawn have been seriously injured.
The interior of Tiandu Purgatory was in chaos.
This is what the Tengu wants most.
He just waits for Li Tianlan to leave, and then he will use all means to kill Po Xiao.
Dawn being seriously injured is nothing to worry about.
Next, he will use the power of Tiandu Purgatory to promote the 'brother-sister relationship' between Palace Master Samsara and Li Kuangtu, and then promote Li Huawu as the orthodox Li family.
It is impossible for Li Huawu to inherit the East Palace, and no matter what, Li Tianlan cannot be a temperless clay figure, but as long as he occupies this orthodox position, Tengu can at least guarantee that he can leave Tiandu Purgatory, and now Tiandu
Purgatory, no matter how desolate it is, is the foundation of a super power, representing power and wealth that others cannot imagine. As long as he can control Tiandu Purgatory, he will become one of the most powerful people in the dark world. If he can
It would be better to force the Eastern Palace to give up some of its power.
The tengu's eyes suddenly became extremely hot.
His eyes glanced at Phoenix without trace.
Phoenix seemed to have not recovered yet, standing blankly on the spot, with a trace of sadness and weakness that could not be concealed on that mature and beautiful face.
Tengu's gaze swept across Phoenix's face and her graceful body curves.
As long as everything goes well today, Tiandu Purgatory will be his that day. This mistress who is so delicious that he secretly covets will also be his. As long as he stabilizes Tiandu Purgatory, he will enter it as soon as possible.
She and Li Kuangtu's bedroom completely occupied and conquered this beautiful and mature mistress on their bed.
The Tengu's eyes turned and fell on Li Tianlan, and he smiled and said: "I don't know if His Majesty has any doubts about the friendliness of the Reincarnation Palace, but no matter what, this is the truth. Young Master Huawu can inherit everything of the Li family.
Including the East Palace, because that is part of the Li family."
Li Tianlan was stunned.
anger?
I really don't have this kind of emotion.
If Li Tianlan hadn't come into contact with some information about Shengshi Fund, maybe he would have really believed what Tiangu said.
Grandpa’s adopted daughter?
Li Kuangtu’s adopted sister?
Does everything in the Palace of Reincarnation have anything to do with Li Tianlan?
Arabian Nights is unbelievable nonsense.
No one in the world except military strategists can truly understand Shengshi Fund.
This is a wealth empire hidden in darkness, and what is exposed to the outside is just the tip of the iceberg.
And this tip of the iceberg seems to have been written with Li Tianlan's name only after the Samsara Palace was merged into the East Emperor Palace, but there is more wealth hidden in the dark, the shares secretly acquired by major groups, all of which cannot be checked by others.
Li Tianlan is the real owner of the secret.
From beginning to end.
There is no such thing as transfer.
From the very beginning, when the Lord of Samsara Palace was seeking those benefits, it was Li Tianlan’s name written on those secret contracts, not the Li family.
Similarly, in many places, the Lord of Samsara Palace also left many traps specifically targeting Li. She obviously took into account the existence of Kuangtu Li. These traps were aimed at Kuangtu Li and the power of Li.
According to the plan, if Li Tianlan really fails in the fight against Li Kuangtu, even if Li Tianlan loses all his martial arts skills, as long as he is alive and uses these traps, he will be able to cause unimaginable trouble to the Li family when they annex the Shengshi Fund.
The purpose of this is self-evident.
So Li Kuangtu and the Master of Samsara Palace have a deep love for each other?
This is not as credible as saying that Gu Xingyun is Wang Tianzong's long-lost brother.
And to say the least, even if these things are not available, when Tiandu Purgatory and Donghuang Palace exist at the same time, Shengshi Fund chose Li Tianlan instead of Li Kuangtu. This alone is enough to make Tiangu's argument unfounded.
break.
Li Tianlan was too lazy to talk nonsense. He just glanced at Tiangu and said calmly: "Who else thinks the same as this chief of staff? Come forward and let me see it."
After a while of silence, a few more people came out.
The crowd became even more silent.
There are not many people who come out to support the Tengu, five or six, but they are not unknown people. They are all people who are in key positions in Tiandu Purgatory.
This is undoubtedly the team of Tengu.
Li Tianlan felt slightly relieved when he found that he didn't recognize any of these people. He could confirm that they were not old people belonging to the Li family.
Tengu took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said softly: "Thank you for your majesty's dedication to the Li family. Now, please return your majesty to the East Palace. We will assist Young Master Hua Wu to control everything, your majesty can rest assured."
A blatant seizure of power.
Li Tianlan looked at the crowd behind Tengu.
No one explicitly supports this small team.
But when many people came into contact with Li Tianlan's gaze, they subconsciously looked away.
Among them are many veterans of the Li family whom Li Tianlan is familiar with.
Li Tianlan understood what Tengu relied on.
Perhaps in the minds of people like Tengu, they came today to conquer Tiandu Purgatory, not to kill people.
After all, in their hearts, Kuangtu Li is already dead, and there is no point in killing other people. On the contrary, it will chill the hearts of these old people of the Li family.
So the Tengu and other talents seem to be unafraid of death and stand up and clamor to seize power. In fact, they are trying to maintain the advancement of Tiandu Purgatory?
And these old people from the Li family...
Li Tianlan was silent.
He could probably understand their silence.
In a sense, this cannot be said to be betrayal.
Tengu talks a lot of nonsense, but at least one thing is true.
That is, although his name is Li Tianlan, the real situation is that his surname is not Li.
He is not the grandson of Li Honghe, nor the son of Li Kuangtu. In terms of blood relationship, he is indeed an outsider of the Li family.
How important is a last name?
When the treason case suddenly broke out, there were so many talented people within the Li family. It is no exaggeration to say that if everyone in the Li family camp revealed that they wanted to change their family, it would not be difficult for anyone to find another way out.
But these people did not from beginning to end. They followed Li Honghe to leave Youzhou and the highest stage in Central Continent. They endured more than twenty years of suffering and torture. Some people faked their death and escaped, but there were also many, many people who really died.
That border line.
Why is all this happening?
It’s all about the word Li!
When Li Tianlan was Li Honghe's grandson, everyone regarded him as the young master and the hope for the future of the Li family. Under Li Honghe's will, they were even willing to stand against Li Kuangtu for his sake.
But now?
His true life experience has not yet been revealed.
But Li Kuangtu has already stated his position, saying that Li Tianlan has nothing to do with him.
Under such a situation, Li Tianlan has nothing to do with Li Kuangtu, which means that he has no blood relationship with the Li family that many people think of.
Someone can accept this and choose to follow Li Honghe's will and stand by Li Tianlan.
There are some people like this in the East Palace, Tiandu Purgatory, and those headed by Li Huazhang are also part of them.
And other people...
They didn't want to choose Kuangtu Li, especially after Kuangtu Li chose to cooperate with Gu Xingyun.
But they are also struggling with the issue of Li Tianlan's life experience.
So facing Li Tianlan at this moment, they could only remain silent.
"Uncle Huoyun, do you agree with Tengu's views?"
Li Tianlan started to name names directly, and his eyes fell on a one-armed middle-aged man.
This is an old man of the Li family whom Li Tianlan is very familiar with. He just left the border camp a year earlier than Li Tianlan and has a very good relationship with him. Compared with Li Tianlan's somewhat indifferent impression of Li Huazhang, Li Tianlan has a deep feeling for this Uncle Huoyun.
More things to remember.
The first roasted gopher he ate when he was a child was given to him by this uncle. In that camp, it was already an extremely rare delicacy.
The corner of Huo Yun's mouth moved, feeling a little bitter.
"Your teacher is in Leki City now and will be coming back soon. Don't you plan to follow me back to see him?"
Li Tianlan continued to ask.
Uncle Huo Yun is Huo Man's apprentice. Many people know this. He originally planned to follow Huo Man's path and use the Fire Realm to attack the Invincible Realm. However, after the treason case, Huo Nan was imprisoned in the desert prison.
In despair, Huo Yun entered the Thunder Realm. Later, he was injured in a battle on the border and lost an arm. He was completely hopeless and invincible.
But he should always remember the friendship back then.
"sky..."
Uncle Huoyun smiled bitterly, as if he wanted to call his name, but as soon as the words came out, he sighed and said hoarsely: "Your Majesty, what is your last name?"
"Is it important?"
Li Tianlan looked into his eyes and spoke in a soft voice: "I grew up in the Li family. No matter whether we are related by blood or not, Mr. Li will always be my grandfather. I am a member of the Li family and the contemporary patriarch of the Li family.
, is there anything different?”
"Different...different..."
Huo Yun murmured.
Li Tianlan was silent for a moment and said softly: "If uncle insists on an answer..."
"In terms of blood relationship, my surname should be Dongcheng."
He was suddenly stunned.
By now, he already knew his life experience, but he had been avoiding it. So far, he only knew his surname, but he didn't know what his name was in the Dongcheng family.
Dongcheng...Dongcheng...
Dongcheng family...
Is this the case in Dongcheng?!
Huo Yun was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to vaguely know what Li Honghe had planned back then.
Tengu obviously realized something, his face changed obviously, and he said in a deep voice: "Since Your Majesty has admitted that his surname is not Li, how can he be the leader of the Li family? We can discuss it slowly about the East Palace, but Tiandu Purgatory
It’s the Li family’s Tiandu Purgatory, how can it be handed over to the Dongcheng family, and so on..."
"I'm talking to senior, what qualifications do you have to interrupt?"
Li Tianlan glanced at Tiangu indifferently.
Tengu subconsciously took half a step back, then gritted his teeth and stood on the spot, saying in a cold voice: "Your Majesty is indeed domineering, but as a member of Tiandu Purgatory, don't I even have the right to speak? Your Majesty is here today, and you want to
Conquer Tiandu Purgatory, no matter what, I, the Tengu, will be the first to be unconvinced!"
"Conquer Tiandu Purgatory..."
Li Tianlan murmured to himself, and then suddenly laughed.
He looked at the Tengu, and the temperature in his eyes dropped little by little, getting colder and colder: "Who told you that I came today to conquer Tiandu Purgatory?"
Uneasiness rose from the Tengu's heart without any warning.
He raised his head suddenly.
In his sight was Li Tianlan's indifferent face without any expression.
"I'm coming today..."
Li Tianlan's voice paused: "They are here to kill people!"
The sword energy surges.
With the Tengu as the center, the space within a radius of several meters condensed instantly.
The small team that was originally centered on Tengu was completely enveloped by the sword energy, including one person at a time.
The sword energy extended without any warning, but it missed Zuo Xian who had just spoken.
The faces of the Tengu people changed dramatically, and they almost instinctively exploded with all their strength.
A faint blue electric arc shone in the sword energy for a moment.
"snort!"
Li Tianlan snorted coldly.
The sword energy surrounding several people suddenly rotated.
Silent and breathless.
The flashing arc is completely extinguished.
Tengu, whose eyes were filled with regret, opened his mouth: "Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Before he finished speaking, the layers of sword energy were already streaking across everyone's body like stream after stream of light.
The body was torn apart silently.
Blood spurted out.
The dense sword light kept swirling.
Before the corpse fragments and blood even hit the ground, they were completely shattered into pieces of powder by the infinite sword energy.
The red powder fell on the ground, a bright red color.
The whole place was silent.
Before everyone had come back to their senses, Li Tianlan's voice continued: "At the same time, let Li Kuangtu see what the current Tiandu Purgatory is like."
Phoenix's body suddenly shook, he raised his head and looked at Li Tianlan, and said in a hoarse voice: "What did you say?"
"Tianlan, the madman is not dead?"
Li Huazhang also reacted and asked hastily.
"He's still alive."
Li Tianlan nodded: "If I didn't say he was dead, how could I have seen the good show today?"
The mood goes up and down.
The crowd became increasingly silent.
Li Tianlan glanced at Huo Yun again, as if speaking to him, and as if speaking to all the elders of the Li family: "In terms of blood, I am indeed an outsider to the Li family, but as such I am grandpa's biological granddaughter, and also
Li Kuangtu’s biological daughter. You can go to the East Palace to find Li Kuangtu and ask if this is the case.”
"Like grandpa, I despise Li Kuangtu. But this man's pride and paranoia have not changed at all over the years. At least he still has a face. You can ask if she is his daughter. You can also ask if he is
Do you really have a deep brother-sister relationship with the Lord of Samsara Palace?"
Li Tianlan's body slowly rose into the air: "Grandpa does not approve of Li Kuangtu, and the future of the Li family has nothing to do with him. But Ru Shi is my woman, and her health is slowly improving now. From now on, I and Ru Shi's child will naturally
He will be the heir of the Li family and the future patriarch of the Li family."
In the headquarters of Tiandu Purgatory, the sword energy that blocked the sky dissipated silently: "I have said this. Tiandu Purgatory will regain its freedom from today. You can freely choose your side and choose to return to the East Palace.
They are still my uncles and aunts, and those who stand on the opposite side of the Eastern Palace will be my enemies from now on."
His figure took a step forward in the air and disappeared instantly.
The next second, Li Tianlan's body appeared in the bedroom of the villa in the center of Tiandu Purgatory.
The spacious bedroom is filled with the faint fragrance of women, which seems to be the smell of phoenix.
In a small bed next to the big bed, a child who looked to be only two or three years old was sleeping soundly.
Li Tianlan looked at the child quietly, his eyes extremely calm.
He took a step forward and stretched out his finger.
