Li Canran quickly closed the scroll, put it in a long box and put it in his storage bag with a calm expression, and then continued to organize the things sent by Hongmengzong.

After he finished his work, he returned to his room, closed the door, and took out the painting again.

Is Peng Xiaoxue threatening him with Yan Ruyi?

He touched the drawing paper and the paint on it with his hand, and told Xiaotong: "Check to confirm when this painting was painted."

Xiaotong searched obediently.

"After checking the dryness and solidification of the painting materials, the portrait was painted about a month ago."

It was drawn a month ago... It means that Yan Ruyi is still safe for the time being. In the painting, her expression is very natural, and the corner of her mouth is smiling, she doesn't seem to be being coerced.

Of course, it is also possible that this was deliberately painted to confuse him.

Anyway, there is no doubt that Yan Ruyi is now in the hands of the Peng family.

The Peng family, one of the six major cultivation families in the Xuanqing Continent, has the same status as the Yan family and the Wenren family.

It is said that the Patriarch of the Peng family had cultivated to the Hinayana stage a long time ago.

"Host, do you still want to save her?" Xiao Tong asked in a low voice, "Don't forget, Peng Xiaoxue's current level of blackening is 100%, she may be able to do anything."

To break into Peng's house with his current strength is undoubtedly asking for a dead end, he is not that stupid.

Peng Xiaoxue wanted to strike first, but she didn't understand one thing.

He is not Xie Xiu, and Yan Ruyi is not his mother. He has already done his best in the matter of Yan's family, and it is impossible for him to be overheated.

He did occupy Xie Xiu's body, but it was forced. If he could use his original body, he would be very happy.

But it was indeed because of himself that Yan Ruyi was targeted by Peng Xiaoxue, and he had to admit that.

Thinking of this, Li Canran felt a little irritable.

If Peng Xiaoxue could be more straightforward and directly directed at himself, he would not have fallen into this passive situation.

Xiaotong asked weakly: "Host, what's wrong with you?"

He whispered: "Peng Xiaoxue will come to find me."

Since this painting was sent, it meant that there was another trick.

Now wait for the people from Hongmengzong to come, she will definitely be among the disciples of the visiting sect this time.

Just yesterday, another news was released.

The Hongmengzong's visit this time is not only for the joint affairs of the two sects, but also for the opening of the Northern Territory Secret Realm.

According to his guess, Peng Xiaoxue should be waiting for this opportunity to enter the secret realm, and is going to vent all the anger he received in Tai Luosen before.

He knew she wanted to lead him by the nose.

But so far, no one has been born who can manipulate him at will with these low-level means.

……

He took a closer look at what Wen Renheng gave him, and it was a wind chime-like musical instrument.

Ancient swords are more than twice as long as ordinary swords, and there are holes in the hilt for hanging.

Li Canran put this set of blue ancient swords on the desk, it looks pretty nice as a decoration.

His eyes were suddenly attracted by the letter in the corner of the desk.

This is the letter that someone stuffed in his door frame on the night of Shangyuan Festival before. The name of the sender was not written, and he has been forgetting to open it to read.

Li Canran immediately picked up the letter, tore off the seal, and was surprised just after reading the beginning.

It was Yun Le who wrote him a farewell letter.

Only then did he vaguely remember that the school exam in Zhongzhou was coming soon, and Yun Le must have left the sect for his journey.

Due to historical reasons, the Xuanqing Continent has no scientific examinations or martial arts exams. In some years, a talent selection system called academic examinations will be held in Zhongzhou to examine the strategy of governing the country and some content of divination theology. .

Yun Le told him that he would become an official.

He recalled that in the past three years, the two had met a few times and had a few brief conversations, all of which were trivial matters.

The only serious conversation was about the Zhongzhou court. At that time, Yun Le didn't reveal too much, but only expressed some views on the court situation.

He supported unification as always, and wanted to implement the law, develop the army, and rule the world with strict laws.

The letter read:

"...Now, the real power of the imperial court is only in the area of ​​Zhongzhou, and the sects and aristocratic families from all over the world are eyeing each other, trying to carve up the world. What I am looking forward to the most these years is that there will be someone who breaks through the way of heaven, ends this dispute, and saves the world. .”

"Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want. The way of a cultivator is to refine Qi to become a god, so my way is to use my own power to change this chaotic world in exchange for a stable and unified world. , a land of strict laws."

"The imperial court is the administrator. Its relationship with the people is not that of water and fish. It is more like a majestic iron tower. The dignity at the top of the tower cannot be offended. The sect cannot replace the duties of the imperial court, so it cannot be the top of the tower. "

"...Brother Xie, you think this is a good era because you stand on a high ground, you can't see what's going on below, and you underestimate the degree of turmoil. If you can use a strict system to rule, then everyone Everyone will find their own place, the country will be stable, and turmoil will no longer happen.”

"I remember you told me that law and restraint are twin brothers. I know you hate restraint and advocate freedom, but if the court has no restraint, then who can guarantee the freedom of a few people..."

The last paragraph in his letter is, "I don't know the result of this trip yet, but since I have made a choice, I will not regret it. I hope Brother Xie will cherish himself. No matter where the future road is, we hope that our future will be good." Shine with the sun and the moon."

Xiao Tong lay down on the desk and followed through the letter.

A gust of wind blew by, and the ancient sword wind chimes that had just been placed rang for a moment.

This letter revealed too much of Yun Le's heart, even though he was careful with his words, Li Canran could still see it.

What he wants is a feudal unified centralized state.

How can we unify?

Use strict laws to cultivate a well-disciplined army, and under the leadership of a strong enough person, fight in all directions.

If this is the case, under the shadow of war, anyone may be sacrificed, and the few or many people are meaningless.

However, the delicate balance of the Xuanqing Continent was broken by the Yan family three years ago, and this war will break out sooner or later, so Yun Le should be thinking about the long-term future.

Establish a centralized autocratic country.

But he forgot one thing, the world of cultivation does not rely on laws, but absolute force. As long as the cultivation level breaks through the tribulation period, one person is an army.

Even if all the continents are unified by then, the imperial court will still be unable to suppress these people, and the wheel of history will pass by, and it will be a situation where each sect dominates.

Unless, this world is no longer able to cultivate, and everyone is honestly farming and doing business...but this is unlikely.

Or, someone can cultivate to become a god.

Thinking of this, Li Canran frowned, and suddenly thought of another possibility.

Not wanting to speculate any further, he was going to go out to get some air.

As soon as he opened the door, he stopped in his tracks.

Zhou Rong was leaning against a pillar in the corridor outside his door, as if waiting for him to come out.

"What's the matter?" Li Canran asked.

Zhou Rong asked straight to the point: "What is painted on the portrait that Peng Xiaoxue gave you?"

Li Canran came to his senses and replied, "What are you so curious about? It's just landscape painting."

"I saw that your expression changed at that time." Zhou Rong's voice was a little lower, "It can't be just a landscape painting, what secret do you guys have behind my back?"

He was just getting annoyed, but this person came to him to press him, and immediately said impatiently: "This is between me and her, what does it have to do with you?"

"You and Peng Xiaoxue don't know each other well, and she was cheated by you once, she was eliminated and left the Demon God Sect, why would she give you something now for no reason?"

Li Canran: "Why, even if you are jealous, you still feel distressed. Are you worried that I will lie to her again?"

Zhou Rong's face turned blue, and he followed his words and said: "It's not impossible, she is ignorant of world affairs, she is not your opponent, you should stay away from her."

"You should say this to her." Li Canran's voice cooled down, and said ruthlessly, "Take care of her and tell her not to mess with me!"

Zhou Rong caught something keenly, "Say it clearly, what do you mean?"

Li Canran felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, and didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he just shut up. He turned his head and left, but was grabbed by the shoulders by the people behind.

"Do you want to do it again?" He stopped in his tracks and mocked lightly.

Zhou Rong's face froze, and he let go of his hand.
