Chapter 2065 - 51: One Path
"Therefore, I promised Ao Cangsheng, I will take the first path."
"I don’t want to tear my face, so if you had offended Ao Cangsheng before, you’d automatically stand out."
"In this way, even if you encounter trouble, I can guarantee the safety of your wife and children."
"Otherwise, don’t blame me for not considering my family!"
Uncle Yu spoke slowly, his voice wasn’t loud, but as everyone at the scene heard his words, many people’s faces started to turn pale.
The meaning from Elder Yu was clear.
I’m afraid that such absurd logic, even a fool wouldn’t agree?
"Elder Yu Chang, do you think it’s possible? Since Ao Cangsheng wants to pay the price for his blood, then hand over the deacon to him, and save the elders."
"After all, the Li Family is now suffering heavy losses. If they lose several elders, there’s no hope for the Li Family to rise again."
Before this elder could fall silent, another elder suddenly stood up and said.
But before he spoke, all the deacons in the conference hall were already glaring at him angrily.
The deacons would never agree with his approach of abandoning the chariot to protect the general.
Just because he is an elder of the Li Family, the deacons were unsatisfied, but they didn’t attack him on the spot.
"Elder Art, I brought so many treasures and beauties today, shouldn’t let Ao Cangsheng stop."
"Do you think your method is more effective than my husband’s?"
Uncle Yu glanced at the old man, and said sarcastically.
No one is a fool. As long as a few deacons can deceive Ao Cangsheng away, Elder Yu wouldn’t worry about everyone coming to the conference hall.
After listening to Elder Yu’s words, the group of deacons, previously indignant, suddenly showed a hint of mocking expression on their face.
Of course, this mockery was directed at the elder.
After the two elders finished speaking, several deacons expressed their opinions one after another.
But without exception, all their propositions were rejected by Elder Yu.
After consecutively vetoing seven or eight proposals, the whole An A meeting hall fell into silence again.
At this time, besides thinking of ways to solve the problem, many people also began planning their next steps.
If Elder Yu truly intends to abandon them, making them become victims, they must prepare for escape.
"Elder Yu Chang, I have an idea. I don’t know if it’s feasible."
After a long silence, a deacon suddenly stood up and said.
The moment the deacon stood up, it attracted everyone’s attention.
Especially the elders, looking at the deacon with eyes full of disdain and contempt.
They believed, even if they couldn’t find a way, what useful method could a lower-ranked deacon offer?
"Tell me your way."
Like the other elders, Yu Minhong had no hope, so he asked casually.
The deacon said: "The Li Family has a way to solve this problem without sacrificing anyone. The method is for the Li Family to move out of Qianye City."
Upon hearing this proposal, all the elders who initially showed contempt widened their eyes.
It must be said, the deacon’s proposal was too bold, he even suggested the Li Family relocate.
But if you think about it carefully, this is the most feasible method.
Nowadays, the Li Family is declining day by day, even if they stay in Qianye City, they might not have any more influence.
Instead of letting Li Fu fall completely, it’s better for the Li Family to move out of Qianye City and seek a new path.
"Elder Yu Chang, I think this method is feasible."
After thinking for a while, an elder suddenly spoke.
Previously, he still despised the deacon, but in the blink of an eye, he changed his attitude.
"I also think the deacon’s method is feasible. Rather than waiting to die, it’s better to find another way."
After the first elder, another elder suddenly stood up to speak for the deacon.
As more and more elders expressed their stance, many others followed suit.
They all agreed to proceed according to the deacon’s method.
Soon, the proposal by the deacon received the approval of all elders and deacons in the conference hall. Only Elder Yu remained in thought.
After some hesitation, Uncle Yu finally made a major decision. He lightly patted the table and said, "Alright, let’s follow Deacon Xiao’s method."
"But I need to make it clear, only we can know about this matter, it must not be disclosed to others."
"When you return, start preparing for departure. To ensure everything is protected, I only give you three days."
"In three days, we will set out from night, leaving Qianye City unnoticed."
Upon hearing these words, they all nodded in agreement. At this time, their lives were closely connected. Of course, none of them dared to entrust anyone else.
"Alright, now disperse and prepare to depart on time within three days!"
Having made the decision, Uncle Yu said nothing more but waved his hand to let people leave promptly.
Ao Cangsheng stayed at Five Taoist Hall for three days. After solving everything, he returned to the Golden Core Hall.
Since Ao Cangsheng’s fame eclipsed Qianye City, once he returned to the Golden Palace, everyone’s gaze changed.
Previously, those people only had fear and reverence for him.
But once they learned Ao Cangsheng was a Fifth-Level Weapon Refiner, a storm surged in their hearts.
Suddenly, Ao Cangsheng transformed from an alchemy prodigy to an alchemy master, making those people admire him even more.
Seeing Nangong Shouhong, Ao Cangsheng simply mentioned something about Wudang.
Regarding the secrets of the Shui Tribe, Ao Cangsheng naturally chose to avoid them.
"Haven’t you already believed? Why do you have such a big reaction?"
Regarding Nangong’s speechlessness, Ao Cangsheng asked with a frown.
Nangong smiled awkwardly and said, "I just feel that you’re so young, achieving the stature of a Fifth-Level artisan is truly amazing."
"You should know, in Qianye City, there are few Fourth-Level refineries, and only one Fifth-Level refinery."
"To reach the level of a Fourth-Level cultivator, they had to immerse in cultivation for nearly a hundred years."
"As for Fifth-Level cultivators, they’ve been cultivating for over a hundred years."
"You’re too young to compare with those weapon makers."
"Additionally, your alchemy skills and martial arts talents are too striking."
"Even in the ancient Red Field Kingdom, it’s difficult to find a genius like you."
"Is that so?"
Ao Cangsheng laughed, appearing as modest as ever.
"Of course! Sometimes I feel fortunate to encounter a genius like you."
Nangong Meng Yu looked at Ao Cangsheng and said, "I don’t know why, I haven’t seen her for a few days. When I see Ao Cangsheng again, she feels somewhat unreal."
"Don’t boast about me, or I’ll become arrogant."
Seeing Nangong Mengyu’s charming smile, Ao Cangsheng deliberately joked.
Seeing Ao Cangsheng in high spirits, Nangong Mengyu also happily said, "It doesn’t matter, you’re a genius. Even if you feel proud, it’s alright."
After chatting for a while, Nangong Meng Yu suddenly thought of something and said, "Mr. Ao, a few days ago someone came to the Golden Core Hospital seeking you."
"Who?"
Ao Cangsheng asked.
"Specifically, I don’t know. That day was my father’s reception. But judging by my father’s attitude, that person’s background shouldn’t be small."
"Moreover, I feel that person isn’t from Qianye City. But I don’t know exactly where they’re from."
Nangong Meng Yu thought carefully and cautiously spoke to Ao Cangsheng.
"Then I’ll go back and ask His Highness to see what happened."
This sudden unknown visitor immediately aroused Ao Cangsheng’s alertness.
Now that he’s famous, many major powers might extend an olive branch, and simultaneously, many want to force him down.
Hence, Ao Cangsheng must find out who is looking for him and for what purpose.
To avoid worrying about Nangong’s chatter, Ao Cangsheng said this and quickly changed the subject.
"Meng Yu, I taught you alchemy not long ago. How are you doing?"
Ao Cangsheng asked casually.
