When Li Huacheng brought Ma Si to the gate of Tiandu Purgatory, Li Kuangtu was lying on the grass in front of the gate, facing the morning sun, quietly looking at the statue standing at the gate.
It was a giant sword burning in fire, a statue, and the emblem of Tiandu Purgatory.
The light of Li's sword will fade away, but one day it will be reborn from the ashes.
This is the belief that Li Kuangtu has insisted on for many years, and today, he personally handed his Li family into the hands of others, and into the hands of the next enemy that he would use all means to target.
His Li family has been reborn.
But Kuangtu Li was lying on the grass, as if he was dead.
Li Huacheng slowed down, came to Li Kuangtu, and looked down at him.
Li Kuangtu's eyes were empty and silent, reflecting nothing.
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Huacheng asked.
"Think about the future, think about the future."
Li Kuangtu said something, suddenly feeling self-deprecating: "I am over fifty years old, do you think it is a bit pretentious to think about this?"
“Planning your life has nothing to do with your age.”
Li Huacheng shook his head.
"Right?"
Li Kuangtu responded casually and said casually: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about this impromptu meeting of yours."
Li Huacheng turned his head and looked at the crowd still standing.
The crowd was small.
To be exact, it seems a bit pitiful that these people can only be found in Tiandu Purgatory Headquarters.
The square formation formed by the crowd was also not neat. There were defects in various positions. These defects were not big, but they were numerous and scattered everywhere. It was like there were many people standing there, but each one But it was like leaving the square formation.
"There are a lot less people."
Li Huacheng said.
"Yes, overnight, most of Tiandu Purgatory's elite have left, and the last few dozen people also left just now."
Li Kuangtu's tone was very calm.
It was like the last group of people from the Li family walked out of the phalanx, walked out of the gate in silence, and officially left Tiandu Purgatory.
From beginning to end, it was calm and emotionless.
Many years ago, he established Tiandu Purgatory on East Island.
Li's veterans joined Tiandu Purgatory from the border.
Many years later, they left Tiandu Purgatory again. In a long time, from the beginning to the end.
They didn't get together easily, and they didn't get together easily.
Everyone who left was at peace.
There was no reluctance, no entanglement, no struggle. They turned around quietly and walked out of the gate of Tiandu Purgatory Headquarters. From the beginning to the end, no one looked back.
So Li Kuangtu completely understood their attitude, and also the attitude of those who left without saying goodbye.
After leaving Tiandu Purgatory, I never said goodbye to him.
It's not that he didn't dare, but that those people were really disappointed in him and chose to walk away in silence.
"Do you regret it?"
Li Huacheng handed Li Kuangtu a cigarette.
Li Kuangtu took it, lit it, took a sip, and asked, "What do you mean?"
"All of them."
Li Huacheng's voice was a little vague.
"Can't talk about it."
Li Kuangtu looked at the empty seats in the square array and seemed to feel a little dazzling. He turned his head and said calmly: "I probably know the reason why they didn't leave before I spoke. I'm not afraid of your laughter if I tell you. Yesterday Those who left later were either people promoted by the old man in the past, or people who had stayed at the border for a long time and were very familiar with Li Tianlan.
Some of the people who came out of the group are familiar to me, and some are not familiar to me, but if the Li family is really divided into two, these people are the ones I promoted and are considered my team. "
"I can be sure that if I had not cooperated with Gu Xingyun, these people would have followed me. Even if they were enemies of Li Tianlan, they would have stood by my side. But how can there be so many ifs? Purgatory Legion and Kunlun Legion The cooperation has become a foregone conclusion. These people didn't leave before. Maybe they wanted to give me a ride? When the Purgatory Legion confirmed their location and when I established a firm foothold, these people would probably leave and defect to the Eastern Palace. Or it’s possible to leave Li’s family.”
"It's not that they can't accept me, they just can't accept my cooperation with Gu Xingyun. From this point of view, they are disappointed in me and indifferent to me, which is right, because they did not betray me and cooperate with Gu Xingyun , which means I betrayed the Li family."
No matter how everyone in the Li family views Li Tianlan, at the very least, none of them can accept Gu Xingyun as their partner.
The hatred that has been buried for many years has long been deep-rooted, and Li Kuangtu is not qualified to resolve it.
So after this morning, there were only three people left by his side who could truly be regarded as Lis.
Dawn, dawn, and phoenix.
There are only three.
The people standing in the square formation in front of them are not from the Li family. They can only be said to be people from Tiandu Purgatory.
"No regrets?"
Li Huacheng asked.
"If this is the case, there is nothing to regret. If you are wrong, you are wrong."
Li Kuangtu shook his head: "From the moment I decided to cooperate with Gu Xingyun, I knew this would be the result."
Li Huacheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but before he spoke, Li Kuangtu had already waved his hand: "I know what you are going to say. I, Gu Xingyun, and Jiang Shangyu, the three of us join forces, there is no need to say more about our strength. Siege Li Tianlan, I don’t know what the two of them think, but I think the chance of success is very high, big enough for me to take a gamble. If Li Tianlan died in that siege, the Li family would also be dissatisfied with me, and even some of them would People choose to leave, but at that time, Li's only choice is me. They will leave, but there will be more people left, and I will completely control Li's.
But Li Tianlan survived, captured me, and at the same time announced the next generation of Li family's heirs. Things have reached this point and there is no way to recover. "
"Li Tianlan invited me to be the first deputy palace master of the East Palace and I didn't agree. It is estimated that many people have already known about this matter. With this matter, they have no reason to stay. To be fair, reject Li Tianlan , this matter is actually due to my ignorance. After all, the trio you expected cannot be led by me. In their view, a person who rejected the first deputy palace master of the East Palace but still ran to cooperate with the enemy People are really cheap and don’t deserve their support.”
"You can explain to them the reason why you rejected Tianlan."
Li Huacheng took a deep breath from the cigarette.
"Pointless."
Li Kuangtu shook his head expressionlessly.
Li Huacheng narrowed his eyes, and amid the smoke, he suddenly said, "What about this matter? Do you regret rejecting Li Tianlan?"
"regret."
Li Kuangtu smiled: "But it's also meaningless. If it happens again, I will still refuse."
"I can give you another chance."
Li Huacheng said lightly: "If you regret it, you can go to the East Palace now. As long as you can pass Mr. Qin's test, Tianlan will definitely not make things difficult for you. Then you will be the first deputy palace master of the East Palace, Purgatory." Legion will be completely
Belonging to the East Palace, by doing this, you actually don't give up much, it's just some dignity and face, and you probably won't care. But as long as Donghuang Palace accepts you, you will most likely have a good death in the future. Do you want to consider it? "
Li Kuangtu frowned and looked at Li Huacheng, a little surprised.
He slowly sat up from the grass, looked at Li Huacheng, and said attentively: "What happened?"
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for Li Huacheng to make this decision.
Li Kuangtu admits that he is no match for Li Tianlan, but he will not underestimate himself. He knows his own weight. At least for now, he is an indispensable chess piece to check and balance Li Tianlan.
A super strong man who has surpassed the peak of invincibility means too many things.
And Li Huacheng would actually give up such a bargaining chip
This also means that among the things that Li Huacheng can currently access, there are already people or other forces who have the qualifications to replace Li Kuangtu and even better check and balance Li Tianlan.
But such people...
Li Kuangtu didn't know anything about this.
"It does not matter."
Li Huacheng said calmly: "The important thing is that you now have a chance to make a new choice. You can join the Eastern Palace."
Li Kuangtu looked at Li Huacheng silently, and after a while, he suddenly laughed.
A little light began to flicker in his pupils, and he seemed to regain some energy.
"I reject."
He repeated his answer and said slowly: "I understood it wrong."
"What's the meaning?"
Li Huacheng frowned.
"You are willing to let me join the Li family, which means that in your heart, there is already someone who can take my place, which will put more pressure on Li Tianlan. But I overestimated myself. The person you have in mind should be more than just a replacement. Me? I left and joined the East Palace. One in and one out, which is equivalent to the power of two me. In other words, in your heart, the new candidate who can replace me is equivalent to the pressure caused by two me on Li Tianlan? I don’t know who such a person is. It is impossible for Wang Tianzong to suddenly recover from his injury. In this case, why should I be the deputy palace master? What I want is the Li family, what I want is the death of Li Tianlan, you have such a If you add me to the list of candidates, is it more likely that Li Tianlan will fall?"
Li Huacheng's eyes flickered and he said nothing.
Li Kuangtu stretched his body and said calmly: "I will hand over all the properties, all the wealth, and all the secrets in Tiandu Purgatory to the East Palace. I can give Li Tianlan what he wants, but can I give it to him?" Whether he can defend it or not depends on his ability. I have quit the Li family, and if you give me 10,000 chances to choose, I will still refuse Li Tianlan's request."
"You think that I can pass Qin Weibai's test if I return to the East Palace with some dignity and face. You are wrong. In this world, that witch is probably the person who most wants me to die without a complete body. Return to the East Palace ? Not to mention dignity and face, even if I give everything I have, I still can't pass her test."
"From the moment I came out of the East Palace with you, I have already regarded myself as a chess piece in your hand. I, Breaking Dawn, Dawn, and these elites in front of you can be used as you like without being polite. We currently have no money. Zhongzhou can give you everything the Purgatory Legion needs for a penny. Now, I am not Kuang Li’s disciple of the Li family. I am a chess piece in your hand, a dog of the parliament.”
"Hehe, hehe, hahaha, hahahaha."
Li Kuangtu laughed suddenly. He looked at Li Huacheng's calm face and suddenly opened his mouth: "Woof woof woof, woof woof woof... Haha, hahaha, hahahaha, look at me, woof woof woof, do I look like him?" Like a qualified dog?”
