Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 724: Do You Really Think Xinnian Is Foolish?

On that viewing stand.

Li Yunlin and Li Yunbing were watching the competition in the arena, bored stiff, silently communicating via voice transmission.

”Big Brother, I just entered the Ancestor Space for a moment.” Even though he had become the Prefecture Lord, Li Yunbing still hadnʼt changed his habit of half-reclining.

”Our Azure Cloudʼs genius, Su Chen, is truly a little fellow who acts without considering the consequences. That disciple of yours, Wuyazi, is actually a competent and good master; he chased them all the way to the Duravia Trade Prefecture.”

”Little Xinnian came too.” Li Yunlinʼs Primordial Spirit had already detected Li Xinnian and Nangong Qingya, who were hidden in a corner.

He let out a sigh. ”Xinnian, that child, is a bit foolish. Su Chen is so reckless, yet he also followed him and acted foolishly.”

”Oh?”

Li Yunbing raised an eyebrow lightly, looked toward Li Xinnian, and said with a smile, ”Big Brother, do you really think Xinnian is foolish?”

Hearing this, Li Yunlinʼs brow furrowed slightly. ”Xingchen is very simple, idling about all day. That wife of his is also a virtuous and kind person. Raising Xinnian to be a bit more pure and good is also fine.”

Li Yunbing did not answer, just gazed teasingly at this junior, Li Xinnian.

Xingchen was simple; he had no rebuttal for that. But... the ones teaching Xinnian werenʼt just Xingchen and Fan Feixuan, but also Huang Xiujin.

Setting this matter aside, Li Yunbing asked, ”Right, Big Brother, why didnʼt Fairy Hongxiu come?”

At the mention of Fairy Hongxiu, Li Yunlinʼs old face flushed red.

He couldnʼt very well say that after an ʼin-depth discussionʼ with Fairy Hongxiu, they had already decided on the matter of ʼthe man handles external affairs, the woman handles internal affairs,ʼ could he?

Just at this moment.

The voice of the Aeternus Sectʼs Third Elder, Daoist Kongxing, came from the side, making Li Yunlin feel as if he had received a great amnesty.

This Third Elder, dressed in a white robe, held a horsetail brush, his long beard falling straight to his waist. He was already stroking his beard and smiling at Li Yunlin.

”Fellow Daoist Yunlin, I have long heard that the Skyveil Sect has three young talents, geniuses rarely seen in the world.

Itʼs a pity that todayʼs competition conflicted with the one in Azure Cloud; if they could have come, it would truly be a grand affair!

Not like today... as for the disciples who came from Eternal Sun Prefecture and the Azure Cloud Region, Iʼm afraid they wonʼt even be able to enter the top one hundred.”

A coldness flashed in Li Yunlinʼs eyes.

He was the Grand Elder of the Skyveil Sect, yet this Third Elder addressed him as ”Fellow Daoist,” which intangibly made his Skyveil Sect a rank lower than the Aeternus Sect.

Before he could reply, the Ding family head at the side burst into a loud laugh.

”Hahaha, I hear the Azure Cloud Region has been blessed with abundant fortune in recent years, a truly outstanding land nurturing outstanding people!

If the young talents of the Skyveil Sect came to my Duravia Trade Prefecture, Iʼm afraid that among the top ten names, they would surely have a place.”

”What a pity.”

Sun Haotian said with a low laugh, ”If the brilliant disciples of the Skyveil Sect could compete against the geniuses of my Duravia Trade Prefecture, it would surely broaden the horizons of our juniors.”

These words made Li Yunlinʼs face turn as cold as frost.

News of Azure Cloudʼs development in recent years had continuously reached his ears.

Unfortunately, the Azure Cloud Regionʼs rise had been too short. Aside from the three geniuses of the Skyveil Sect, although the aptitude of the others already made the people of Azure Cloud very happy, to the Duravia Trade Prefecture, they were merely mediocre.

Not to mention the Eternal Sun Prefecture. After incessant wars, it was still recovering its strength in recent years.

The Eternal Sun Prefecture disciples who came to compete this time were merely invited to make up the numbers.

These people from the Duravia Trade Prefecture were praising the Azure Cloud Region and the Eternal Sun Prefecture at every turn, but the sarcasm in their words was completely unconcealed.

Li Yunlin glanced at these three and said with a faint smile, ”You flatter me. Our juniors from Azure Cloud and Eternal Sun, in the end, are striving hard.

Their efforts, this Grand Elder has seen with my own eyes. If they are inferior to others, then it is also because we, as elders, have failed in our teachings.”

His voice suddenly held a trace of eagerness. ”How about this, I see this Duravia Trade Prefecture younger generation competition is also a grand event. Since we are all gathered here, why not add another event?”

The Third Elder, Daoist Kongxing, was startled. ”Oh?”

”Simple.”

Li Yunlin smiled and said, ”Since there is a competition for cultivators under fifty years old, why not have a competition for cultivators under five hundred years old?”

Hearing this, Daoist Kongxing and the two clan heads all had their expressions change.

Who in the entire Duravia Trade Prefecture doesnʼt know how formidable the Li family cultivators are?

Five hundred years old... among them, those who reached the Divinity Transformation realm by five hundred are few and far between.

As far as they know, Li Yunlin isnʼt even five hundred, yet decades ago, he had already participated in the battle at Prince Qianʼs Mansion!

Forget those few Divinity Transformation cultivators; even if those among them who have lived for several thousand years entered the competition, they wouldnʼt necessarily be a match for this Skyveil Sect Grand Elder Yunlin.

”Heh... hehe.” Daoist Kongxingʼs smile was strained.

”Fellow Daoist jests. This is a tradition of my Duravia Trade Prefecture; how can we joke about it?

Matters of the younger generation should be settled by the younger generation. It wouldnʼt be good for those like us to participate, would it?”

At the side, Li Yunbing let out a scoff.

Seeing Li Yunbingʼs undisguised ridicule, Daoist Kongxingʼs expression turned even uglier.

”Lord Prefecture Lord, what is so laughable now? Could it be that the disciples from Eternal Sun Prefecture lost badly, and the Prefecture Lord is displeased?

Lord Prefecture Lord, you are the Prefecture Lord of my Duravia Trade Prefecture. To side with Eternal Sun Prefecture... that is inevitably a bit biased.”

”Third Elder, biased... no,” Li Yunbingʼs expression was teasing. ”Itʼs just that I feel some things are being said too soon.”

”Oh?”

Daoist Kongxing glanced at the arena. He saw those disciples from the Eternal Sun Prefecture and the Azure Cloud Region being defeated one by one.

Never mind these disciples who just came to make up the numbers—even if Azure Cloudʼs most promising younger generation came, so what?

”Yes, Lord Prefecture Lord is correct.” He simply decided not to speak further with Li Yunbing.

Li Yunbing also looked toward the disciples from Azure Cloud and saw one person standing expressionlessly in a corner.

He suddenly smiled, ”Third Elder, do you dare to make a wager?”

Daoist Kongxing pondered for a moment, then gave a cold snort. ”What is there not to dare?”

”One low-grade Dharma Treasure.”

As Li Yunbingʼs voice fell, Li Yunlin, at the side, also found it interesting. ”Since the Prefecture Lord is interested, then this humble Daoist will also offer a Rank 5 Spirit Object.”

As the words of the several experts fell one after another.

Suddenly, their expressions tensed.

On the Azure Cloud side, an unremarkable-looking cultivator rode his sword into the air, arrogantly gazing down at all the cultivators on the ground.

”Su Chen, personal disciple of the Azure Cloud Skyveil Sect, has come to meet the peers of the Duravia Trade Prefecture!”

”Iʼm in a hurry. You all...”

”Come at me together!”
