The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 258: This is how we should view it

"It's difficult. Is there no other way?" Wang Xiangru, who was sitting below, said with a pale face.

Her husband, Li Fenghua, also led his army back from Cangzhou. He almost died in the previous battle while defending Qingzhou. Now he is seriously injured and has not recovered yet. He looks listless.

Li Xiaoran glanced at her coldly, ignored her, and stared at Li Tiangang.

Li Tiangang's face looked grim. He didn't expect that in just over a month, the Li family would have reached such a desperate situation.

"I'll go ask the ancestors for blood sacrifice now!"

Li Tiangang bit his back teeth slightly, stood up and said.

He glanced at Li Xiaoran and wanted to say something to his fourth uncle, but the other party's eyes were extremely cold and he looked at him as if he were a stranger, which made him feel a pang of pain in his heart.

He knows why.

When he brought his wife Ji Qingqing back, he also confessed the news about Li Hao to everyone. He failed to bring Li Hao back, and Li Hao died because of him.

This news stunned Li Muchu, Li Xiaoran and others. That day, there were bursts of roars in the God General's Mansion, and several rooms in the Shanhe Courtyard were smashed to pieces. Only the room where the young man once lived was intact.

After one night, Li Muxiu seemed to have aged by ten years and never spoke another word to Li Tiangang. When Li Xiaoran saw Li Tiangang, his eyes were cold, as if he was seeing a stranger, which made Li Tiangang feel heartbroken.

Li Tiangang walked forward, and Li Xiaoran just slightly stepped aside to let him pass, without saying anything to each other.

The rest of the people were silent, as they had gotten used to it. These days, Li Xiaoran came to see Li Tiangang only because of the battle report from Liangzhou, and his tone was always cold.

They all remembered vividly what happened in Shanhe Courtyard after they learned the news of Li Hao's death that day. The old man with the hottest temper and the deepest feelings for Li Hao, despite violating the Li family's soul oath and getting injured, slapped Li Tiangang hard several times and coughed up blood.

You know, at that time the demons were still attacking Qingzhou, and the second uncle was still needed to take charge.

It was not until then that they realized how deep the affection between this second uncle and the child was, which could make him so sad and angry that he even ignored the overall situation.

However, it was not only Li Muxiu who was sad at that time. Many of them were also sad. Although the child was not their own, he was the blood of the Li family and the glory of the Li family after all. But because of some misunderstandings in the past, it could no longer be recovered or compensated.

"This time, let's use our ancestor's blood to guide us and see if your precious children will come back!"

He Jianlan looked at Wang Xiangru with cold eyes.

In the past, she would still take into account her personal feelings and her position as the eldest lady, so as to avoid being accused of relying on her status as the eldest daughter-in-law to bully her other sisters-in-law.

Moreover, the clansmen behind these sisters-in-law also serve as officials in the court, and there are many people with mixed opinions.

But since she learned of Li Hao's death, and now what is happening in Qingzhou, she can no longer conceal the anger that she has been suppressing in her heart.

After that incident, she often felt heartbroken and resentful in her spare time, and often looked back. She felt that instead of blaming Liu Yuerong, the most hateful thing was Wang's indulgence of her children.

Wang Xiangru never allowed her children to follow others to practice in the martial arts field since they were young. She was domineering and doting, which resulted in her children having no emotions and unfamiliar relationships with other peers such as Li Hao, Li Yuanzhao, and Li Zhining. It also caused her daughter to be uneducated and offend Li Hao's mother, who angrily slapped her.

And when the conflict in the courtyard reached its greatest point, Li Rumeng's tearful crying was like the final pushing force that completely tore the father and son apart and pushed them to opposing sides.

There was Li Tiangang's bizarre paranoia, Liu Yuerong's stupidity and viciousness, and Wang Xiangru's doting on her children. All of these led to the outbreak of the war, and in the end, it was the helpless child who had to bear it all.

Whenever He Jianlan thought of this, she couldn't help crying. She hated herself for not knowing what she was doing at the time and for not being able to stop it.

But the reason was that everything was too abrupt at the time. Things happened one after another, and no one was expecting it. No one could predict the outcome.

At this moment, Wang Xiangru's face changed slightly when she heard He Jianlan's cold voice. Ever since Li Tiangang brought back the news of Li Hao's death, her position in the God General's Mansion seemed to be the second Liu Yuerong, but Liu Yuerong was imprisoned, while she was still outside and had to look at other people's faces all the time. This made her feel a ball of anger accumulated in her heart for a long time.

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? If Jiang Ying and Ru Meng can sense the blood of their ancestors, they will definitely come back, unless something holds them back."

Wang Xiangru said angrily.

He Jianlan sneered: "Then let's wait and see!"

Wang Xiangru heard the sarcasm in her words and said angrily, "Are you expecting them to come back and die together? In this situation, they are not even at the Heavenly Man Realm. Even if they come back, what use will it be?"

After these words came out, the expressions of the other ladies changed slightly and they looked at her coldly.

After the Li Hao incident, they were no longer stupid. Looking back on this major event, they all realized how destructive the slander against Wang Xiangru's daughter was in that environment.

Their family can be regarded as one of the murderers who pushed Li Hao to run away, and Wang Xiangru has been famous for her pampering of her children for more than ten years. In the past, they all secretly disliked each other and at most had nothing to do with each other, but now it has caused a disaster. Now, what Wang Xiangru said is even more problematic.

"If everyone thinks the same as you, then all the soldiers can disperse, and you can leave too."

He Jianlan looked at her with cold eyes.

"We are the bloodline of the Li family, and we live and die together. It has nothing to do with cultivation." Xiao Yujing glanced at Wang Xiangru and said coldly.

"Xian'er, as a member of the royal family, is willing to fight with my Li family until the last moment. This is not because of her cultivation." Gao Qingqing also said, but her tone was more reserved.

Jiang Xian'er is Li Junye's fiancée. They have only an engagement, but she is willing to remain a widow for Li Junye for the rest of her life. Now that Qingzhou is in dire straits, Li Muxiu previously suggested that Jiang Xian'er leave. After all, she is of royal blood, and she has not even slept with Li Junye. They only have an engagement. However, Jiang Xian'er shook her head and refused.

After hearing Gao Qingqing's words, Wang Xiangru's face turned ugly, and she knew that she had said something wrong.

"That's not what I meant. I just heard the tone of my sister-in-law. She wants to see my children get into trouble. I, Wang Xiangru, married into the Li family. I am a member of the Li family. Even if the city is destroyed, I will die with everyone. Why are you making things difficult for me?"

Wang Xiangru said through gritted teeth.

Everyone looked at her and ignored her. She said that words were just words and anything she said was fine, but whether they truly considered themselves as a member of the Li family depended on their actions. At least judging from the way she spoiled her children, that was not the case.

Her children are not close to their husband's family, but are closer to their mother's family, the Wang family. This is all related to Wang Xiangru.

"Marrying the wrong wife brings disaster to three generations."

Li Xiaoran snorted coldly and glanced at Li Fenghua who was keeping his head down and silent, knowing that the other party was not in a good situation either.

The ladies present were all his sisters-in-law, so he could not refute them no matter how harsh their words were, not to mention that they all made sense. He could not control his own wife either. If he defended her, he would be unreasonable. If he did not, he would not be a man enough. If he did not protect his children, he would fail in his fatherly duties. He was in a difficult position and could only remain silent, looking like a coward.

Hearing Li Xiaoran's words, Wang Xiangru's face changed and became extremely ugly. This man was her elder, and she didn't dare to contradict him again.

Li Xiaoran did not establish his soul in the ancestral temple. He had a great reputation when he was young, and now he is even more majestic.

"It's a pity that the child will never come back... Well, from what you said, the Li family treated him so badly. Even if he is alive, he has no reason to come back, and he should not come back."

Li Xiaoran put his hands behind his back and looked towards the ancestral hall in the back mountain, but his eyes were dim.

When the others heard what Li Xiaoran said, they all fell silent. Indeed, even if they were alive, they should not come back. After all, the two Taiping Dao Realm demons who challenged them outside would have to fight against one Taiping Dao Realm demon alone.

Now using the ancestral blood to summon all the members of the Li family to return is not to rely on the existence that can rival the Dao realm among them, but to utilize the power of all people, condense the military formation, and then assist with the many precious resources in the Li family's secret library, such as the Sacred Heart Heavenly Treasure, to fight a desperate battle.

After all, if these treasures are not used in battle, they will be given to the monsters at a low price.

Therefore, this battle will last until the Li family sheds their last drop of blood and consumes all of their wealth.

And with all these foundations added together, there is hope that one can be comparable to a person at the Taiping Dao realm.

This is the power of three thousand years of inheritance!
Not long after, at the ancestral hall in the back mountain, a blood formation rose into the sky, covering half of the God General's Mansion.

Many people in the mansion who had Li family blood felt their blood boiling and their whole bodies as if they were boiling.

At the same time, they felt a kind of guidance and inspiration in the blood. It was an ancestor who sacrificed his own soul and dissipated as a cost in calling on all the bloodline of the Li family!
The blood-attracting formation, sacrificing the souls of ancestors, is a method that will only be used in desperate situations.

Ladies like He Jianlan were all married-in daughters-in-law from outside the family and could not feel it, but they saw that a divine flame seemed to be burning on Li Xiaoran's body. Because Li Xiaoran's cultivation was powerful, when his blood was called upon, his aura began to fluctuate.

Inside the hall, everyone who had been somewhat angry before now felt a sense of sadness welling up in their hearts.

They felt the aura emanating from the Li family bloodline outside the courtyard, whether legitimate or illegitimate, like the light of fireflies, lighting up everywhere in the General's Mansion.

This is the last light!

"The ancestors are calling..."

Inside the courtyard, Li Yuanzhao, Li Zhining and others looked up and saw the bloody array rising into the sky coming from the ancestral hall.

They felt the call in their blood, reached out to touch their chests, and there was sadness in their eyes, but their eyes soon became firm.

Like them, many Li family members in the martial arts arena and other courtyards looked up. The call in their blood made them understand that the Li family had reached a moment of life and death!

……

……

Wuliang Mountain, the Pure Land of Brahma.

The rolling mountains, one upon another, shrouded in misty clouds, make it seem like a holy place on earth.

At this moment, among several of the majestic peaks.

"my body……"

"My father said that this is the blood of my ancestors. My ancestors are calling me..."

"Is the family in trouble?"

Among the inner disciples of Wuliang Mountain, several of the Li family's illegitimate bloodline disciples also became Wuliang Mountain's disciples and practiced here.

At this moment, they all felt their bodies getting hot, as if there was a calling and guidance. The feeling was hard to describe, and without words, it made them feel anxious and sad.

"No, I want to go home!"

"Master, I want to go down the mountain!"

Although these illegitimate children are not as talented as the direct descendants, they are also considered geniuses among the inner disciples of Wuliang Mountain and have the potential to become masters.

As for the three immortal realms, in addition to comprehension, it also depends on opportunity.

At this moment, they all quickly rushed to the mountain gate, explained the reasons to their master, packed their luggage, and hurried down the mountain.

In the spiritual realm of Wuliang Mountain, it is the place where the Buddha resides and practices.

On the majestic Lingshan Mountain, a young man sat cross-legged, wearing a snow-white robe, looking pious and ethereal.

Suddenly, his eyes opened, he looked down, and felt his heart burning in his chest.

"Is this, blood guidance?"

The young man was startled for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed. What was going on? Why would his family use the blood of their ancestors to attract and call him?
He didn't bother to continue practicing, and quickly stood up and rushed to the Buddhist temple on the top of Lingshan Mountain.

When he arrived in front of the Buddhist temple, he quickly reported that he wanted to see the Buddha. Before the two guardians could send a message, the Buddha's voice came from inside, asking the boy to go in.

Li Qianfeng immediately ran into the Buddhist temple and saw the Buddha sitting high in the temple. He immediately knelt down and worshiped, saying, "Master, my Li family is in trouble, I want to go down the mountain."

The Buddha looked compassionate and said slowly, "Don't worry, Guardian of the Universe. Although you have entered the realm of heaven and man, your cultivation is still too low in this catastrophe. Even if you go down the mountain, it will only add one more soul to the Li family."

Li Qianfeng was stunned and his body trembled. He knew very well that for the family to use such means to force out the ancestor's blood would definitely be a disaster. With his level of cultivation, he could only contribute a little if he returned.

"Master, please lend a helping hand and help our Li family out of this difficulty!"

Li Qianfeng knelt down hurriedly and spoke anxiously.

The Buddha said in a gentle voice: "Your Li family's luck has not yet ended. There is still a glimmer of hope. Nothing will happen. You just need to practice here in peace."

Li Qianfeng looked up at him and said in astonishment: "But the family is in trouble, I, I..."

"If you don't calm your mind, how can you transcend?"

The Buddha said, "You have reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Man Realm at the age of twenty. This achievement is not easy to come by. It is the result of your hard work day and night. As long as your bloodline is still there, the Li family will not be destroyed. This time the Li family is in danger, it is also your opportunity. When the disaster is over, you can go down the mountain and return. You will definitely inherit the throne of the True Dragon and lead the Li family to rebuild the ruins."

Li Qianfeng was stunned, and a figure flashed through his mind: "But my mother..."

"I will send Puji Bodhisattva to bring your mother here, and help the Li family get rid of this disaster."

The Buddha said in a gentle voice: "You shouldn't be thinking about this. The six senses are pure, but you haven't completely cut off the worldly world. How can you achieve the three immortals? You should understand your Tao heart in advance and pursue what you really want and what you want. That can only be one thing. For this, you must give up everything complicated."

"Remember, all phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows, like dew and lightning. You should view them in this way!"

Li Qianfeng was stunned for a moment, and felt the hot blood in his body gradually calm down. He was silent for a moment and whispered:
"Disciple knows."
