Cheng Yu's face became even uglier when he heard this.
But just as Lu Li said, he had been wandering outside with a snow sword for many years, and Lunjian Peak had never sent anyone to pick up the sword. Apart from thinking about the slight friendship in the past, more importantly, Lunjianfeng Feng did not dare to enter the ancient demon kingdom easily.
After all, this is the territory of the Demon Sect. If Lunjianfeng sends people to enter, it is likely to cause a backlash from most of the ancient forces.
No matter how hidden Jianfeng is from the world, he is still a righteous force. The relationship between Zhengdao and the Demon Sect is very delicate. There are constant frictions of various sizes on weekdays, but no particularly big conflicts have broken out.
That's because both parties maintain an absolute tacit understanding, and no one breaks the rules or bottom line.
It is precisely because of this that Cheng Yu dares to be so unbridled in the Demon Kingdom.
Otherwise, he, the traitor who stole the Snow Sword, would be the first target that Lunjian Peak would deal with.
"What, you've got something on your mind and you have nothing to say?"
Seeing that Cheng Yu was speechless, Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little bored, and waved his hand, signaling Shi Yan to continue his tactics.
Shi Yan naturally obeyed the order and used the force of his feet to force out a lot of blood from Cheng Yu's sword wound.
At this time, Cheng Yu seemed to have accepted his fate, gritting his teeth but not saying a word.
Not even a groan.
At this moment, he showed quite a bit of the arrogance that belonged to the Sword Seat at Lunjian Peak, but this kind of arrogance happened to be something Lu Li disliked very much.
"Sometimes hard bones can't solve the problem. In addition to letting yourself suffer in vain, your pride can't move anyone."
"A person has value only when he is alive. No matter what the cost is to survive, no one will look down on you."
Lu Li put the sword case on the ground, walked to Cheng Yu, squatted down and looked at him, "From now on, I will ask you questions. If you hesitate for a moment, I will cut off one of your meridians. You should know how many meridians there are in the human body." Before I completely destroy you, you can try how long you can hold on."
Cheng Yu's face turned pale and he turned his head to glare at Lu Li, as if he wanted to carve this face into his pupils.
That hateful look only made Lu Li sneer slightly, "If you hate me, then explain the matter clearly and save your life, so that you can have a chance to seek revenge from me. Otherwise, you will die here today and go to the Netherworld. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a long time for me.”
"I always keep my word and never go back on what I promise. Tell me what I want to know and I can spare your life."
Lu Li looked at Cheng Yu with a smile.
"How can I trust you?"
Cheng Yu let the rain pour all over his body and gradually relaxed, but his tone was bone-chilling.
When Lu Li heard this, he smiled.
This proud sword cultivator from Jian Lun Peak finally figured it out.
So, Lu Li took out something from his sleeve, which was a jade slip that could communicate with him alone.
Putting the jade slip into Cheng Yu's hand, Lu Li said calmly: "You don't need to believe me, and you don't need to listen to what I say. From now on, just see what I do."
Holding the jade slip, Cheng Yu still looked hesitant.
However, he took a deep look at Lu Li and suddenly said: "I came today to kill you."
He didn't believe that Lu Li was so generous, because if it were him, if he faced an enemy who wanted to kill him, he would never let him go.
Only by killing them all can there be no worries.
Lu Li stood up, looked up at the increasingly heavy rain, and then asked with a smile, "Then you finished the killing?"
Cheng Yu was startled, seeing Lu Li standing in the rain without a drop of his body being touched. He suddenly figured out something, smiled bitterly, and stopped asking.
"You are still useful to me."
Lu Li said calmly: "So I want you to remember that I spared your life today. If I need it in the future, you have to return this life to me."
"Now, tell me that name."
Lu Li lowered his eyes and said word by word: "I don't need everything, just a name. The name of the one with the most power who really sent you to kill me."
Cheng Yu's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this.
…
Zhang family.
Since Zhang Juan's death, the entire Zhang Mansion has been shrouded in misery.
During this period, not only did Prince Yan's Mansion make things difficult for them, but also some families who were originally allies took the opportunity to add insult to injury. In the past two months, the Zhang family had lost almost one-third of their family property. If it weren't for the Hou family, He hasn't spoken yet, and I'm afraid even the current members of the Zhang family will escape overnight.
Moreover, the person in charge of the Zhang family at this time is not the useless son of the Zhang family who was once dazzling but fell quietly in the end, but an unknown clan elder.
This person's name is Zhang Heng, and he is Zhang Juan's uncle. However, the Zhang family is not as large as the Hou family. Among the children of the old patriarch's generation, almost only the old patriarch is talented, and the others are not worthy of being big. There are not many thrilling past events in the fight for the position of the head of the family, let alone the drama of brothers fighting each other.
Zhang Heng was one of those young men who were not worthy of much use. Ever since the head of the old family came to the throne, he had never treated these brothers badly.
However, compared to several other brothers who had no talent for cultivation and indulged in sexual activities, Zhang Heng's greatest advantage was his mediocrity.
His cultivation talent was mediocre, but he managed to reach the peak of immortality. With the accumulation of resources from the Zhang family, he also entered the realm of the early Mingyou and became a grandmaster.
Although this Grandmaster was not easy to come by, it also proved that his qualifications were mediocre, but it was this mediocrity that made him seem harmless. When Zhang Juan succeeded to the throne and became the new head of the Zhang family, Zhang Heng became the clan elder and continued to maintain this mediocrity. Zhang Juan was happy that he did nothing, just like a clay statue, enshrined in the family.
It can be said that mediocrity saved his life and also gave him a chance.
When Zhang Juan died and the Zhang family became the target of public criticism, no one expected that it would be Zhang Heng, a humble elder, who would take over the power of the Zhang family.
At this moment, in the study room that originally belonged to Zhang Juan, the old Zhang Heng was closing his eyes and meditating. The actual leaders of the Zhang family were standing on both sides, but no one dared to speak, or even breathe loudly. I was afraid of disturbing Zhang Heng's nap.
"Mr. Zhang."
Finally, just when Zhang Heng was about to fall asleep completely, a middle-aged man stood up with gritted teeth and bravely said, "What should we do now?"
Zhang Heng seemed to have been woken up. He opened his cloudy eyes and looked at the middle-aged man who spoke with a sense of confusion. After hesitating for a long time, he said leisurely: "What should I do? Something big happened again. Already?"
He raised his hand, dug at the corners of his eyes, looked at the Zhang family leaders standing in the study, and said slowly: "How old are they? They can't even handle such a small thing, and they still come to me for instructions." ?"
"Mr. Zhang, this matter... we really don't dare to make any more decisions about this matter."
The middle-aged man sighed, his face a little bitter.
This man's name is Zhang Lin, and he is the person in charge of many industries of the Zhang family. To put it simply, he is the God of Wealth of the Zhang family and is in charge of the money bag. Therefore, he has the right to speak and can intervene in many important decisions.
Even when Zhang Juan was still there, he valued his attitude very much. He could replace Zhang Juan as the head of the family in some decisions that were not too excessive.
Now that Zhang Juan is dead, although the Zhang family is controlled by Zhang Heng, Zhang Lin's position has not been shaken, but has become more stable.
But now even he finds it difficult to make a decision, which proves that this matter is indeed difficult.
An inexplicable light flashed in Zhang Heng's turbid eyes. He looked at Zhang Lin and said calmly: "What happened."
Only then did he show the majesty that a head of a family should have.
Zhang Lin hesitated slightly, then reminded: "Mr. Zhang, before you asked the Lunjian Peak traitor to lead people to rob and kill Lu Li..."
"What do you mean I sent people to kidnap and kill Lu Li?"
Zhang Heng immediately interrupted Zhang Lin and said dissatisfiedly: "This matter cannot be accomplished by the Zhang family alone. There are many families behind this matter. Be more careful next time you speak, understand?" "
