My messenger is a little fox

However, after much inquiring later, I realized that the Uesugi Daimyo had been wronged.

Today, Uesugi Yoshikazu is already over fifty, but he is only a third-level spiritual master, which can be considered to be quite powerful among the daimyo. After all, only three of the eighteen daimyo have reached the king level.

However, he is very obsessed with advancing to the king level, but he has reached a very embarrassing age. If he cannot break through at the age of sixty, then he will basically stop at the third level spiritual master for the rest of his life. Although the half-moon robe can speed up the cultivation speed of the spirit, the effect becomes worse in the later stages. After all, the growth of the cultivation level has almost stagnated at the bottleneck, and the role of the half-moon robe has long been unnecessary.

What Uesugi Yoshikazu desires most is to give it another try before he is sixty years old, and he will not hesitate to pay a huge price for this. Because he was willing to spend money, he finally found a very feasible method that could help him advance. It's just that this method requires the inner elixir of a king-level sea beast, the hawksbill rock turtle, as a primer.

It's just that the hawksbill rock turtle is a king-level sea beast after all. Although Uesugi Yoshikazu found traces of it, he didn't dare to take action. If he misses one hit and lets it run away, then Uesugi Yoshikazu may not have the financial resources and time to find the second one.

Just at this time, Takeda Junichi's letter of help arrived, which immediately gave Uesugi Yoshikazu a new idea. After all, Takeda Junichi is one of the only three kings among the Eighteen Great Ming Dynasties, and he has some friendship with him on weekdays. If he can be invited to take action, then the matter of obtaining the inner elixir of the tortoise shell rock turtle is basically safe. , hence the strange behavior before.

After investigating the reasons, Takeda Junichi agreed, considering the possibility of recruiting more political allies and investing in a possible future king-level spiritual master. However, he handed over the task to his daughter Takeda Masami and the local government on the grounds that he was busy with his affairs. Flat Temple.

I don’t know how Takeda Junichi followed up with Sugiwa’s reply. Anyway, the latter finally agreed, but it’s unclear whether he was willing or not.

Li Yu secretly sighed inwardly that this Takeda Daimyo was really good at calculating. He was just an intermediary in the whole matter. He only used his words to get the greatest benefits.

It's done, both parties have to accept his favor, and even if they lose, it has nothing to do with the other party. After all, they are in a high position and have many affairs, so it would be nice if they can help you with their words. Sure enough, he is an old fox who has been in politics for many years, and they are part of the same family. Why doesn't he have the innocence of his daughter?

However, Takeda Masami was very excited. In her opinion, this was a test given to her by her father, which was a sign of trust in her and recognition of her strength. A typical silly girl who helps count the money after being sold.

Seeing that the old palace master and Li Yu were both silent, Takeda Masami said anxiously: "How? How? Although the target this time is a king-level sea beast, its strength on land will be greatly affected, and it still appears alone during the spawning period. This is simply a once-in-a-lifetime event. It was basically accomplished by me, Li Yu and Sister Naiko working together!"

It seems that there is no choice in this matter. Who leaves me without a bargaining chip? But if it is true as the information provided by Takeda Masami says, then the success rate of this matter is indeed very high. You must know that he has fought against the king-level sea clan. He alone can fight with them, not to mention there is another Masami Takeda who is not weaker than him and Nako Asakura who is not weak in strength.

"I agree. I'm just worried that if this matter fails, it may affect Daimyo Uesugi's life." Li Yu spoke up first.

The old palace master understood what Li Yu meant, and nodded: "We can accept it without the half-moon robe, but without the inner elixir of the tortoiseshell rock turtle, I'm afraid all the hard work of Uesugi Daimyo will be in vain."

Takeda Masami was stunned. He was too excited to receive the important task and did not think about this aspect before. He even felt that there was no need to think about it. After all, with the three of him taking action, the matter was basically solved.

Takeda Masami scratched her hair and said with an innocent expression: "Ah! What should I do? I really didn't expect such a result! Otherwise - I will ask my father or my master to take action again?"

What is needed is your attitude. As long as you put aside your eagerness to prove yourself and work steadily, the chances of success are indeed high.

After pouring cold water on Takeda Masami, he could give some more encouragement. Li Yu thought for a while and then said: "It doesn't have to be so troublesome. In fact, the three of us have a great advantage. What we need most is information about the hawksbill rock turtle and formulating a reasonable strategy. Cooperate. As long as the arrangements are made according to the capabilities of the tortoiseshell rock turtle, if there are no big surprises, it will be done."

"That makes sense, you have more clever ideas!" Takeda Masami clapped his hands in relief, suddenly punched Li Yu hard on the shoulder, and said angrily: "If you didn't tell me earlier, you just want to see me make a fool of myself!"

"I'm going to find Nako-san." Takeda Masami stroked her red fists, stood up and ran away briskly.

"Your Excellency Li Yu really likes to bully little girls!" the old palace master said with a smile, picking up the tea cup and taking a sip.

"Let the palace master laugh! The so-called gentleman deceives others, this method can only fool a kind-hearted person like Takeda Masami. It would not be effective if it were someone else." Li Yu put away his pride and faced the old palace master. Bowed.

The old palace master put down his cup and said with a smile: "You are a smart man. I don't want to pay attention to the things of you young people, but it is best to be prudent in your cultivation. Don't let your character affect your cultivation."

Li Yu bowed again and said thanks: "Junior has learned a lesson!"

……

There is a large island more than 300 miles east of Fuso. This island is far away from the land and has fallen into the sphere of influence of the Sea Clan. No human ships dare to reach here. At most, only a few people ride on the island to rest on the familiars or flying mounts.

Although it is winter, the island is still full of green. It's just that the atmosphere on the island has been extremely tense recently. Many forests, hills and other landforms have been destroyed, and countless animals and monsters have been hunted. The reason is that an extremely ferocious sea beast came to the island.

This beast is shaped like a turtle and as big as a house. It has stone horns on its head. The boulders on its back are as jagged as rockeries. When it moves, it shakes the earth and looks majestic. Perhaps because the due date is approaching, this beast is extremely violent. If it goes wrong, it will destroy forests and mountains, killing and destroying, leaving a good island in a state of devastation and smog.

Li Yu and the others had been hiding in the distance for a day and observing. Thanks to the torture of the hawksbill rock turtle, the three of them also had a preliminary understanding of its abilities. This turtle has dual systems of water and earth, and some common dual-system ordinary skills can be used, and the switching between skills is free and smooth, which is quite difficult. What troubled the three of them the most was its hard tortoise shell and majestic amount of spiritual power.

"How's it going? Do you want to do something?" Takeda Masami has little patience to continue observing. The tortoiseshell rock turtle has been using those skills over and over again.

"Not yet!"

Li Yu directly rejected Takeda Masami's proposal, "The skills displayed by this tortoiseshell rock turtle are all common skills with ordinary power. There is nothing on the island that can threaten it, and it is impossible for it to use its ability as a trump card. "
