/p>       The Li family is one of the three major families in North China, and its family background cannot be underestimated. In recent years, the Li family has secretly trained 30 "Shadow Deadpools", which is similar to the death squad with high martial arts skills. When the family encounters disaster, "Shadow Deadpools" belongs to the group of people rushing to the forefront. They are personally trained by Li Gan, the personal bodyguard of the head of the family, and each is in the second level of "refining Qi into God".

"Shadow Deadpool" has been in the Li family for 20 years and is called "one of the two treasures of the Li family" by outsiders. The first treasure is the Li family's peerless weapon "Longquan Sword", and the second treasure is this "Shadow Deadpool".

Li Jiangbei and Li Gan stood in the courtyard of the villa. A gust of autumn wind blew, and withered leaves hovered from the trees and gradually fell to the ground. Li Jiangbei looked at the depressed scene and sighed, saying to Li Gan: "If Lin Tao really defeated Ji Wuheng, our Li family can only send out the 'Shadow Deadpool'."

Li Gan said with a complicated look: "After Lin Tao defeated Ji Wuheng, the entire underworld in North China will definitely turn to the Hongmen. Even if we dispatch the 'Shadow Deadpool', it will be a mantis arm to be a chariot, which is vulnerable at all."

The way the two spoke, they could tell the different ideas about Lin Tao and Ji Wuheng's competition. Li Jiangbei used the "If Lin Tao really lost", which means that Li Jiangbei still had a glimmer of hope for Lin Tao. However, Li Gan used the "After Lin Tao defeated Ji Wuheng" and a more affirmative tone, which shows that he did not think Lin Tao has the ability to defeat Ji Wuheng, who was two or three levels higher than him.

This is true. If no miracle happened, it would be a dream to defeat Ji Wuheng's "refining the gods and transforming the emptiness" at the peak of the early stage of Lin Tao's "refining the gods and transforming the emptiness" or the early stage of "refining the emptiness and transforming the emptiness" at the peak of the early stage of Ji Wuheng's "refining the gods and transforming the emptiness" at the late stage of "refining the emptiness and refining the Tao".

"You are so sure Lin Tao will definitely lose?"

Li Jiangbei heard that Li Gan was not optimistic about Lin Tao and couldn't help asking.

Li Gan sighed and said, "The gap in cultivation is too big, and the two of them are no longer on the same level."

Li Jiangbei did not agree with Li Gan's opinion and said, "Some time ago, Ji Wuheng's apprentice Wang Hu duel with Lin Tao. At that time, Wang Hu was in the middle stage of "Refining the God and Transforming the Void". Isn't it still one level higher than Lin Tao? What's the result? You should have seen it at that time. Wang Hu didn't even have the chance to fight back and was killed by Lin Tao. This is enough to show that even if Lin Tao faces the late stage of "Refining the God and Transforming the Void", he may not necessarily lose."

After hearing Li Jiangbei's words, Li Gan showed a bitter smile on his face and said, "Master, don't forget that Ji Wuheng is very likely to be in the realm of "refining the emptiness and reincarnation of the Tao". Think about it, all the disciples he taught are already in the middle stage of "refining the spirit and transforming the emptiness". He may only be in the late stage of "refining the spirit and transforming the emptiness". If I guess correctly, he now has a high possibility of "refining the emptiness and reincarnation of the Tao."

After a pause, Li Gan glanced at Li Jiangbei and continued: "Once the cultivation level has entered the late stage of "refining the gods and transforming the emptiness" to the early stage of "refining the emptiness and refining the emptiness", although it seems that it has only increased by one level on the surface, its inner strength has increased several times, and it cannot be said in the same way as before!"

"I know all this!" Li Jiangbei said with a ugly expression: "I am just comforting myself. I pray that Ji Wuheng has not broken through the third level and entered the fourth level of "refining the emptiness and refining the Tao". If he really has the cultivation level of "refining the emptiness and refining the Tao", then we can only wait to die!"

"Not necessarily!"

Li Gan suddenly thought of something and said, "Things may turn around. At least, I think our Li family is safe for the time being."

"Why do you say that?" Li Jiangbei looked at Li Gan in confusion.

Li Gan explained: "The overseas Hongmen has been very active in recent years and it is obvious that they want to return to China. However, because they are afraid of the Chinese national security department, they have been secretly developing their strength. Now they are not strong enough to just directly destroy our Li family. After all, our Li family is one of the three major families in North China. If they dare to destroy our Li family so crazy, the national security department and the North China Provincial Government will not stand by."

"Well, what I said makes sense. However, we should not be too optimistic. We should be prepared for a big battle. If Lin Tao is defeated, the entire North China Province will inevitably be in a turbulent situation again."

"Okay, I'll arrange the 'Shadow Deadpool' now and be ready for battle at any time."

...

In just one afternoon, the entire North China gangster had already learned that Lin Tao was going to fight Yu Meiziling with Ji Wuheng, the third elder of the Hongmen.

So, the bigwigs from various gangs gathered in Yangcheng again.

At this time, it was getting darker. In the courtyard of a remote alley in Yangcheng, a beautiful woman wearing white plains and a pale face sat on the Grand Master's chair, staring at the dark night sky in a daze.

A creaking sound.

The wooden door at the gate was pushed open from outside. An old man with a medium figure and a rough appearance stepped in, glanced at the woman sitting in the yard, frowned and blamed: "Yutong, the temperature is very low now. Why are you sitting outside so thin? Your physique is already..."

"Father, I'm used to the cold, so it's nothing serious."

The father and daughter who were talking to Lin Tao were Xin Wudi and Xin Yutong who left without saying goodbye.

Lin Tao used the "fire Yang grass" that Xin Wudi brought back from the depths of the desert to suppress Xin Yutong's cold constitution, which bought Xin Yutong for half a year. Originally, Xin Yutong was very grateful to Lin Tao, but accidentally discovered that the reason why Lin Tao enthusiastically helped him treat his illness was entirely for his adoptive father Liu Yuanzong, who wanted to cure his illness so that his father would not seek revenge on Liu Yuanzong.

Xin Yutong felt that all this was a conspiracy between Lin Tao and Liu Yuanzong, so she was so angry that she left Lin Tao's villa with Xin Wudi. After leaving Lin Tao's villa in Xi'an, the father and daughter returned to Yangcheng and found the current small yard to live temporarily.

"Although Lin Tao has temporarily suppressed the cold air in your body with 'fire Yang Grass', you can't be careless at all, otherwise the old illness will recur, and it may be troublesome at that time."

When talking about Lin Tao, Xin Yutong's calm face seemed a little unnatural.

Xin Wudi saw it and said tentatively: "Why didn't you want to go back to your hometown with me after leaving Xi'an? Instead, you came to Yangcheng again. Are you worried about him?"

Xin Yutong shook her head and said, "Don't mention him!"

Xin Wudi sighed and said, "Why do you have to? Liu Yuanzong is dead. I feel relieved. Why can't you get along with yourself?"

"He shouldn't have deceived me!" Xin Yutong's beautiful eyes fluctuated. Xin Wudi looked at his daughter and said gently: "Actually, Lin Tao is not a big mistake. He just wanted to treat you, so he concealed something. If he told you that he was the adopted son of Liu Yuanzong, would you still be willing to let him treat you?"

"Father, you said it wrong. His original intention of saving me was just to make you grateful to him and want you to give up seeking revenge on Liu Yuanzong."

"Are these important? At least he did keep his word and suppress the cold air in your body. Just make this happen, you should forgive him."

Xin Yutong looked at the night sky again in a daze, and said in a gentle tone: "Actually, after leaving the villa, I thought a lot on the way back to Yangcheng, and felt relieved, and didn't blame him much."

"Then why are you..."

Xin Yutong knew what Xin Wudi wanted to ask, so she stopped Xin Wudi and said, "I only have half a year deadline. What do you think can be a result between me and him?"

Speaking of the six-year deadline, Xin Wudi suddenly became decadent. He heard Lin Tao mention that Xin Yutong is the "extreme Yin body" and Lin Tao is the "extreme Yang body". As long as Xin Yutong is willing to adjust the Yin and Yang of Lin Tao, the cold poison in the body can be completely eradicated. But he also knew that Xin Yutong regards reputation as more important than life, and Xin Yutong cannot happen if she has no status with Lin Tao.

"Yutong, if you like Lin Tao, I can go and talk to Lin Tao. As long as you get married, then... cough cough, the cold poison in your body will naturally be eliminated at that time."

"He already has someone he likes." When this sentence was said, Xin Yutong's expression seemed a little lonely and her chest was a little blocked.

"What's wrong with someone you like? As long as you are not married yet, it's nothing!"

After a pause, Xin Wudi looked at Xin Yutong, his expression became more serious, and he said, "Yutong, I almost forgot the matter after interrupting just now. I heard a news when I went out."

"What news."

Xin Yutong asked absent-mindedly.

Xin Wudi said in a deep voice: "Listen to the news from the underworld that at 5 pm tomorrow, Lin Tao will fight to the death with Ji Wuheng, the third elder of the Hongmen, in Meiziling."

"kindness?"

Xin Yutong withdrew her eyes and looked at Xin Wudi in surprise, saying, "Is the news reliable?"

"Of course reliable!"

Xin Yutong's beautiful Willow Leaf eyebrows frowned slightly and continued to ask: "How is that third elder of the Hongmen comparing with you?"

Xin Wudi said bitterly: "I'm much better than me, and I'm not on the same level."

"Could..." Xin Yutong's face changed slightly, "Is he already a cultivation goal of 'refining the emptiness and rehabilitation'?"

"I don't know what level is specific, but Ji Wuheng is probably the super master of "refining the emptiness and reincarnation"! When he fled overseas, he was already in the late stage of "refining the spirit and transforming the emptiness". After so many years, he might have already broken through the bottleneck and entered the fourth level of "refining the emptiness and reincarnation".

"If the third elder of the Hongmen really has the cultivation level of "refining the emptiness and rehabilitation", then Lin Tao may..." Xin Yutong's face showed a deep look of worry.

Xin Wudi let out a sigh, and then said calmly: "I'm afraid it's a life-and-death!"
