Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 329 Commitment
Li Fan's thoughts were stirring. Ruo Yue Gong was under the orders of the imperial court, and had even surrendered to it.

Then, everything would make sense.

The imperial court could use the power of the Moon Palace to unify the forces in the West Sea. In addition, if the Nine Infants monster was resurrected from the dead, it was also the work of the imperial court...

Then, the West Sea will be completely under the control of the imperial court, and no force will be able to cause any trouble.

Li Fan thought so because the imperial court had done the same thing in the past, and even if it did it again, Li Fan would not be surprised at all.

Liu Zonglin pondered for a moment. In the hall, the monks were also discussing the matter. They suggested that the imperial court get involved to suppress the demons, but the price was that the land of the West Sea would be under the control of the imperial court. From then on, they would be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

What will be the consequences if they refuse?

"Lord Wenren, there are many forces in the West Sea. As the Palace Master of the West Emperor Palace, I cannot make the decision. I'm afraid this matter still needs to be discussed." Liu Zonglin looked up at Wenren Zhongdao.

"Of course." Wen Renzhong nodded: "Master Liu, you can think about it carefully. The Nine Infants Island is causing chaos in the West Sea this time. In order to suppress the monsters, the court will also need to dispatch top practitioners. It will take time. I will wait for the Palace Master's reply."

After saying that, Wen Ren Zhong bowed slightly and turned to leave. Li Fan stood aside, but Wen Ren Zhong did not even look at him, as if he did not know his identity.

But with regard to some of the previous incidents and the battle in the West Sea, I'm afraid Wen Ren Zhong has already received some information about them.

After Wen Renzhong left, the hall suddenly became a mess.

"Despicable! Killing demons is the duty of the imperial court. Now they are using this as a condition to threaten all the forces in the West Sea and force us to submit to the imperial court." An elder said angrily.

"Everyone in the world is pursuing profit, and the imperial court is no exception. The imperial court has also benefited from the chaos caused by demons for more than a decade. For many years, the imperial court has always wanted to truly rule the Dali cultivation world, but there are so many cultivators in the world that even with its huge power, it can only defeat them one by one. Now, they have seen the opportunity to rule the West Sea." Another old man spoke coldly, with wisdom in his words.

"The Palace Master said before that the Nine Infants Demon had been killed that year, but for some reason it suddenly reappeared, and its strength is not as good as before?" Li Fan looked at Liu Zonglin and asked, causing many pairs of eyes to fall on him, wondering why Li Fan mentioned this.

"Yes." Liu Zonglin nodded. "From the battle that day, we can see that the Nine Infants Demon's strength has declined. In the turmoil more than ten years ago, the oppression brought by the Nine Infants Demon was much stronger than this time. Perhaps even though he was resurrected, his vitality was seriously damaged and he was unable to return to his peak. He has been secretly accumulating strength over the years, and recovering from his injuries."

"In the battle that year, all the cultivators killed Jiuying, so why was he allowed to live?" Li Fan asked.

Liu Zonglin raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm not sure about the details, but the Nine Infants Demon was indeed killed back then, so he shouldn't be alive. Perhaps, the demon also had a secret technique that allowed him to escape back then."

"I'm just afraid someone will help him." Li Fan said, "And the betrayal of the Moon Palace, all this is just a coincidence."

"What do you mean?" someone looked at Li Fan and asked.

"No intention." Li Fan replied: "Now that the imperial court is threatening Xihai with this, what do you plan to do?"

Everyone was silent, and one person whispered, "If we refuse, I'm afraid that all the forces in the West Sea will be doomed. Once the Sun Palace is breached, the next will be the West Emperor Island, and then spread to every corner of the West Sea."

"So, there is no other way, right?" Li Fan asked. No one could answer. He looked at Liu Zonglin, and Liu Zonglin was also silent.

"Unless all the monks in the West Sea evacuate the West Sea and head inland." Liu Zonglin said.

Hearing this, the monks of the Western Emperor Palace turned pale. Are they going to give up the foundation of the Western Emperor Palace that they have established for many years?

Moreover, once they give up, the practitioners with low levels in the West Sea, as well as hundreds of millions of humans, will become food for the demons.

"Leave it to me." Li Fan suddenly said.

"Ok?"

Everyone was stunned, as if they didn't hear clearly, and they all looked up at him in surprise.

Leave it to him?
Many people showed strange expressions. Even though Li Fan was extremely talented and was a genius in swordsmanship, no matter how talented he was, he was only at the Dan stage.

"Are you kidding?" Elder Nan snorted coldly and stared at Li Fan.

"Do I sound like I'm joking?" Li Fan responded coldly, then looked at Liu Zonglin: "I will ask someone to solve the matter of the West Sea."

"Okay!" Liu Zonglin stood up excitedly. When everyone didn't believe Li Fan, he bowed to Li Fan and said, "My friend, the lives of countless cultivators in the West Sea are now in your hands."

"Ok?"

When everyone heard Liu Zonglin's words, strange looks appeared in their eyes. Liu Zonglin, the Palace Master of the Western Emperor Palace, seemed to trust Li Fan very much and believed that he could do it.

This is, why?
Li Fan nodded, then turned and left.

After he left, the hall suddenly fell into chaos.

"Palace Master." Everyone looked at Liu Zonglin, waiting for him to explain, but they saw Liu Zonglin waved his hand and said, "Now, we can only trust Young Master Yang. Let's all go."

Everyone left with doubts, still discussing.

Don't trust the imperial court, but trust a younger generation of Ningdan?
Of course, the imperial court is not trustworthy either.

But what about Li Fan?

After the crowd left, the great elder Murong Gang said to Liu Zonglin: "Palace Master, even though he is the successor of Lishan Sword Dao, who can come from Lishan to deal with the current situation in the West Sea?"

"There are still a few old people away from the mountain." Liu Zonglin said, "I don't know who they are."

"I'm afraid that the old man from Lishan is not as good as the owner of Xihuang Island. Can he defeat the Nine Infants Demon?" Murong Gang sighed, still nervous.

Is that junior a little too confident?

Liu Zonglin was also a little worried and asked, "Are there any other options?"

Murong Gang was silent.

Indeed, there is no way out.

"Will there be a great swordsman coming from Lishan?" When Li Fan returned to his residence, Luo Qingyan asked curiously beside him. Li Fan actually agreed to solve the issue of the West Sea.

Who will come from the mountain?

Li Fan shook his head.

"No?" Luo Qingyan looked strange: "Then you promised Palace Master Liu?"

"It's not the Lishan swordsman who came." Li Fan replied.

"Who is that?" Luo Qingyan became even more curious.

Li Fan ignored him.

"Have you decided?" Lu Yuan on the side seemed to know what Li Fan was going to do, and looked at him and asked.

"Yes." Li Fan nodded: "The Sun Palace is where Senior Brother Mo Yang's family is located, and the Moon Palace issue also needs to be resolved. Now the court is involved. If we let it develop, this consequence is something I don't want to see."

Hopefully, it’s not too late.

After hearing the conversation between the two, Luo Qingyan wanted to know more, but was pulled away by Meng Hong.

Since Li Fan has agreed, he will naturally do it. Next, all we have to do is wait.

I don’t know who will come.
