C67 Luo Kai Shan
In the entire Li Family, Li Yuanjie was the strongest, but right now, with Li Yuanjie dead, there was naturally no one who could threaten Li Waner and his mother anymore.
Early the next morning, the Madame Li announced that he had regained control of the Li Family and announced the death of Li Yuanjie to the entire Heavenly Thunder City.
When this news came out, the entire Heavenly Thunder City was in an uproar. Almost no one knew what exactly happened in the Li Family, so no one knew why Li Yuanjie died either.
The Li Family had completely fallen into a period of adjustment, and the so called adjustment period was the period where those who had betrayed the Madame Li and were loyal to Li Yuanjie had all been cleansed.
The elders regained control, and the Li Family quickly returned to its original position.
Madame Li was extremely busy all day, even Li Waner was busy running around, he did not stay idle.
However, it was rare for Lin Tian to get some free time. Other than cultivating, Lin Tian also paid special attention to the news on Celestial Dragon City.
Even though the distance between Heavenly Thunder City and himself wasn't too far, the communication between the two cities wasn't too great. In fact, even within the Heavenly Thunder City, no one knew about Luo Lie's death.
However, Lin Tian did not mind, if there really was someone in Celestial Dragon City who wanted to kill him, Xiao Yunhai would definitely notify him first.
The Li Family had now returned into the hands of Li Waner and her daughter. There was not much meaning for him to stay any longer, and what he had promised Li Waner back then, he had already done so.
In fact, when Lin Tian killed Li Yuanjie, they had wanted to leave, but they were just worried that Li Yuanjie would die, the other enemies of the Lin Family would all come to look for trouble with the Li Family. However, after waiting for a few days, none of their enemies came to their doorstep, so Lin Tian waited for the Madame Li and Li Waner to settle down, before bidding them farewell.
"..."
At the same time, in Heavenly Thunder City, Heavenly Thunder Royal Palace.
Luo Kaishan sat in the great hall quietly as he leisurely sipped on his tea.
Not long after, a group of five people suddenly walked over to the main hall. The five of them were in a hurry.
"Your Highness!" The five of them bowed in greeting.
"What, do you have any news about what I told you to investigate?" Luo Kaishan's gaze was indifferent, and he asked casually.
"There's a result." The leader of the group nodded, and said: "We were ordered by the king to split up into five groups to investigate the situation of the Li Family, so we have a rough understanding of the situation now."
"Tell me about it." Luo Kaishan said indifferently.
"I'll go first." The leader said: "This subordinate has investigated to see what happened three months ago in Li Family, it has now been determined."
Three months ago, the Li Family's reverend, who was also the only second-rate alchemist in the entire Heavenly Thunder City, needed a batch of extremely valuable medicinal herbs to refine a second-rate pellet. He wanted to use this to thoroughly establish himself as the number one family in the Li Family, and this batch of medicinal herbs was transported from the capital's Tianluo City.
Just that, on the way back, Li Yuanjie and a large number of the Mercenary troops were robbed by a group of extremely powerful bandits, the Mercenary army suffered countless casualties, and Li Yuanjie was also severely injured, but the medicinal ingredients were also preserved, and they were escorted all the way to a place 100 li away from Blackwind Ridge. The Madame Li was worried, and recruited a large group of experts from the Li Family, and headed towards the Blackwind Ridge to receive them.
When the boss said this, he stopped and turned to the second person, "Second brother, tell me what you've found out."
The second person stood up and replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, I'm investigating the matters regarding the Blackwind Ridge."
When Madame Li went to receive Li Yuanjie, he indeed welcomed him. At that time, Li Yuanjie's injuries were already very serious, so Madame Li told Li Yuanjie to return to Li Family first, while she led some people to bring the medicinal ingredients back. It was just that she did not expect that when they were walking to Blackwind Ridge, Blackwind Ridge's people would suddenly make a move to take the medicinal ingredients away, and even abduct Madame Li.
"Interesting." Luo Kaishan nodded his head indifferently: "Those rascals from Blackwind Ridge are doing well, they even dare to rob Li Family's cars! "Go on."
"At that time, Blackwind Ridge's request was for Li Family to use up all his wealth to redeem Madame Li."
"At that time, Li Family's Li Yuanjie was heavily injured, and he was unable to exterminate the criminals in Blackwind Ridge. The man continued: "That's why the entire Li Family was opposed to redemption at that time."
"Not only that, many of the elders in the Li Family started to support Li Yuanjie as their Family Master's daughter, Li Family's eldest daughter, Li Waner. On the night before Li Yuanjie became their Family Master, she disappeared."
The second brother hesitated for a moment before continuing, "However, during the few months that Li Waner had disappeared, the strange thing is that the seven leaders of the Blackwind Ridge had also disappeared at the same time."
"Moreover, these seven leaders have never returned after disappearing."
"Three months later, Li Waner suddenly appeared out of nowhere and brought back an expert. That person used his own strength to kill all the experts in Blackwind Ridge, and even swept clean all the treasures in Blackwind Ridge, and even set the Black Wind Stronghold on fire. That person brought Li Waner and Madame Li back to Li Family."
When the second brother said this, his gaze turned to the third person and he said, "My prince, the only information I can find about the Blackwind Ridge is this much information. The remaining information was found by the Laosan."
That Laosan stood up at this moment: "Reporting to Your Highness, what I am in charge of investigating is the news of Li Yuanjie's death."
"The person second brother said had burned down the Black Wind Stronghold is called Lin Tian. Li Yuanjie was killed by him."
"Lin Tian?" Luo Kaishan's eyes suddenly focused, as though he had thought of something, but then shook his head and said: "The name is actually very familiar, but I'm too old and I don't even remember where I heard this name. No harm, continue speaking."
However, at that time, it was already too late. They went to a restaurant in the city, and on the second day, they returned to the Li Family. According to what this subordinate found out, Lin Tian had killed Li Yuanjie's third son, Li Qingfeng, as well as the captain of the Li Family's guards, Li San, and also severely injured Li Yuanjie's eldest son, Li Qingyu.
"And at that time, Li Yuanjie was not in any other place. He was in the Duke Palace, discussing important matters with the Duke!"
"No one knows exactly what happened that night, but the servants of Li Family said that it was Lin Tian who killed Li Yuanjie."
When the Laosan said till here, he immediately stopped.
Luo Kaishan's gaze also turned towards the fourth person out of the five.
"This subordinate investigated the current situation of the Li Family." That Fourth Bro immediately replied.
"After Li Yuanjie died, his faction was completely cleansed by the Madame Li and replaced with a person whom the Madame Li trusted. Madame Li has been in charge of the Li Family for many years, with both prestige and authority. There was no major disturbance within the Li Family, but this subordinate heard another piece of news. "
"What news?" Luo Kaishan said indifferently.
"This subordinate dare to ask Your Highness, that time, did Li Yuanjie come to visit Your Highness for the sake of the Li Family's Grand Ceremony?"
"It's not a secret. It's fine if I told you." Luo Kaishan did not hesitate at all and directly replied: "Li Yuanjie came to find me so that I could take care of his successor, the Family Master's Grand Ceremony. For this reason, he even gave me the best street where the Li Family's medicine business is conducted as a form of gratitude."
"In that case, it's a match." That fourth brother nodded, and continued: "In fact, Li Yuanjie did not only promise to the Duke. He also promised to the Zhang Family, Liu Family, Qingxuan Pavilion, and the red wolf Group in the city, to let the patriarchs of these powers participate in his successor Family Master Grand Ceremony.
Not bad, Li Yuanjie is not bad, he was actually willing to spend such a huge amount of wealth of the Li Family just for the sake of his position in the Family Master. Luo Kaishan evaluated, and then spoke to the fifth person: "Xiao Wu, tell me about your rewards."
The fifth person in the five-man team immediately stood up and said, "After a thorough investigation from my brothers, this matter is very clear."
"For the sake of his position in the Family Master, Li Yuanjie planned such a grand show, but he was never injured. Furthermore, it was someone from the Blackwind Ridge that he colluded with, kidnapped his sister-in-law, forced his niece away, and even planned the grand ceremony of his successor as the Family Master. However, all of this was messed up by Lin Tian, not only did he not think of it, but we also did not think of it.
"This, I'll leave it to you guys to investigate this Lin Tian brat." Luo Kaishan instructed.
"Then, Your Royal Highness, what should we do next?" The boss of the team of five couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's to unite those clans and ask the Li Family for an explanation …" Luo Kaishan's eyes revealed a trace of greed.
"That was an entire street, and it was even Li Yuanjie himself who had promised me. No matter who the Li Family is now, there has never been a reason to take back the promises and what I, Luo Kaishan, have made. Of course, there is also no reason not to admit it."
Luo Kaishan sipped some tea and then said indifferently: "Find someone to contact the Zhang and Liu Families' Family Master s, and Qingxuan Pavilion's Pavilion Master s too …"
Speaking to here, Luo Kaishan shook his head: "Forget about Qingxuan Pavilion, they have a close relationship with him, so they shouldn't force him too much. Let's even find the Mercenary's Guild Leader, and once he has settled down, we will come over to congratulate him on taking control of the Li Family!"
"Yes sir!" The five of them replied in unison before leaving in a hurry.
Luo Kaishan squinted and read silently: "Lin Tian, Lin Tian... This name, why is it so familiar, where exactly have I heard this name from? "
