"We talked for a while, nothing else."
Outside the meditation room, Lu Bei casually explained to Zhao Shiran, "If you insist on not believing me, I can only lie to you. I was threatened by the Grand Tutor in order to see you every day, and I paid a heavy price for it."
"The teacher... is a good person."
Zhao Shiran hesitated, knowing that Lu Bei and the Grand Tutor did not get along, so he said a few good words for the Grand Tutor, trying to resolve the misunderstanding between the two.
The effect was average. Lu Bei listened with one ear and out with the other. Whatever Zhao Shiran said, he just kept saying "yes, yes, yes, yes".
An hour later, Lu Bei said goodbye to Zhao Shiran in a grove, caught Hu San in another grove, and brought him back to Qingqiu Palace.
This kid is not honest. His own mother has already taken advantage of the Grand Tutor, but he actually tricked the Grand Tutor's apprentice into the grove.
There was nothing wrong with the tactic of stealing the house, but it was Fox Three who was wrong to mix his own personal grudges with the personal grudges between the Master and Fox Two.
Lu Bei was very curious about whether the relationship between Taifu and Hu Er was good or bad.
If it's a good deal, the two of them would argue with each other as soon as they met, and each one was more ruthless than the other. If it's a bad deal, Hu San and Mu Jiling would both go to the grove, but the two of them chose to turn a blind eye.
"Is it possible that Ji Qing is involved here?"
…
"Is it possible that she is lying to you?"
In Qingqiu Palace, Hu Er listened to Lu Bei's story and shook his head to deny it: "Don't look at her cold and aloof, she is actually very cunning. When the Huangji Sect targeted her, she diverted the blame and asked me and you to take the lead. This little trick can't fool me."
"But it's not impossible."
Lu Bei analyzed: "Mother, you were severely injured by Qi Lijing. You kept quiet for seven or eight months, quietly hiding in Qingqiu Palace to lick your wounds..."
"You little brat, you'll feel uncomfortable if I don't say a few insults to you, right?" Fox Two raised his hand to interrupt and slapped Fox Three in the face.
If she can’t cure her godson, can she not cure her own son
If Lu Bei dares to act presumptuously again, he will make his elder brother pay the price.
"It's all my mother's fault. You can do whatever you want with my sharp tongue."
Lu Bei was not threatened and was even willing to raise the price. In the future, he would inherit all the assets of the Hu family. He continued, "Mother has acted out of character. It is understandable that the Huangji Sect has some ideas. They are pretending to have a conflict with the Grand Tutor. If mother lets down her guard, I am afraid..."
Lu Bei didn't say the rest, as long as Hu Er understood it.
"The Grand Tutor has also been in seclusion. Why didn't you say that the Huangji Sect was targeting her?"
"There's someone behind her."
"I still have you!"
"If mother insists on saying so, I have no other choice, but I have to be on guard against others, so it's better to be cautious."
At this point, Lu Bei changed his voice transmission and said, "Why did mother leave the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters? I am alone and weak and have no right to ask, but if the Huangji Sect insists on getting involved with the monsters, or uses the righteousness of exorcising monsters to contact the Holy Land, mother's situation will be worse than that of the master."
Fox Two was silent after hearing this: "I will soon pass the tribulation. I have delayed for half a year and cannot delay any longer. The Huangji Sect has indeed chosen a good time to take action now."
"Mother, you can try this technique, maybe it can help you avoid this disaster."
Lu Bei took out the 'Nine Years of Qigong', a secret technique that came from the evil demon Tu Yuan. It can change size at will, suppress the aura of one's own realm, and thus avoid the coming of heavenly calamity.
Fox Two took it and examined it: "The technique is good, but there is no way for my mother to avoid it. It is useless to practice it. In the end, I can't avoid this disaster."
"I'd like to ask, how many times has mother been struck by lightning?"
"I've been struck three times. This is the fourth time."
The third level of tribulation, after going through this level of tribulation, is the fourth level of tribulation, which is one small realm lower than the Grand Tutor.
Lu Bei understood in his heart that Fox Er and Taifu were not ordinary people in the tribulation period. They had endless skills and supernatural powers, and their strength was far stronger than their peers. However, Taifu had a newer version, and if Fox Er did not survive this tribulation, he would sooner or later be angered and turned into various emoticons.
"Godmother, are you confident about this tribulation?"
"Only 90%, I am extremely anxious."
Fox Two sighed, "I used to be well prepared and 100% sure to survive the tribulation. It's all because of Qi Li Jing. If I hadn't fought him for 800 rounds, I wouldn't have lost that 10%."
Lu Bei rolled his eyes, too lazy to complain, and took out something from his arms: "Mom, do you recognize this treasure?"
"Grass!"
…
night.
Lu Bei left the secret realm through the passage of the Imperial Garden and returned to the Princess's temporary palace.
He once again rejected the two female officials' offer to rub his back and quietly soaked in the water until the late night, when Zhu Qilan and Butler Yu returned from the Empress Dowager's palace.
Lu Bei was curious about what magical power the Queen Mother had taught him. Zhu Qilan remained silent. Butler Yu covered his mouth with his hands and laughed secretly, then whispered something in Lu Bei's ear.
Lu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this. Zhu Qilan had learned a new skill, and he was willing to act as a guinea pig to help him gain maximum experience points. He guaranteed to work hard and cooperate closely with him.
Zhu Qilan spat softly, leaned against Lu Bei's side, frowned suddenly, and said unhappily: "Where did you go today? Why do you smell like powder again, and..."
There are also several different flavors.
"No way, I've been dating for a long time. Cousin, you are a white tiger, how come you are a dog?"
Lu Bei exclaimed in amazement, and after a little whitewashing, he explained his itinerary: "I went to Juxian Yage at noon... Don't stare at me, the person hugging me was Big Brother Hu San, not some questionable man."
You two are innocent...right
When he heard Fox Three, a stunningly beautiful face flashed before Zhu Qilan's eyes. He really wanted to say to Lu Bei that if he had someone outside in the future, make sure it was a woman.
"My elder brother and I went to the secret realm of the imperial city to pay our respects to our godmother. She is a good person in every way, except that she has no taboos towards younger generations. Half of the scent of powder on my body comes from her." Lu Bei said with a headache.
"What about the other half, that person?"
"Who is that person?"
Lu Bei asked knowingly and readily gave the source of his feminine scent: "It's the Master."
"???" x2
A string of question marks flashed across Zhu Qilan and Butler Yu's foreheads at the same time. They thought about it and pondered for a moment, but still couldn't figure it out.
"My godmother and the Grand Tutor don't get along. Whenever they meet, they fight. They pull hair, scratch faces, and tear clothes. The scene is quite lively. When I go to stop the fight, I can't help but get a bit of the Grand Tutor's flavor." Lu Bei organized his words and described a big battle vividly.
As he spoke, he slapped his thigh and showed his back teeth to Zhu Qilan with joy.
The words were too fake, Zhu Qilan didn't believe a word of it, but since Lu Bei mentioned Mr. Taifu and Mr. Hu Er, he thought they should be honest today.
She removed the big hand from her leg, and said shyly with a red face: "It's all your fault. Mother saw it and looked at me and Bai Yu for a long time without saying a word... It's so embarrassing..."
"You only have one chance. If my mother-in-law wants to laugh, let her laugh. There won't be a second chance anyway."
Lu Bei lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of her hair: "It's late at night. If you don't go to sleep now, it will be dawn. You don't want to get up at noon tomorrow, do you?"
"I'm feeling a little uncomfortable. Let's do it another day." Zhu Qilan grabbed the corner of his clothes, not daring to look at Lu Bei.
"As you wish."
Lu Bei readily agreed and extended his hand to Butler Yu: "Sister Yu, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I don't have to wait until another day."
The couple successfully held hands, and as Zhu Qilan was stunned, they hugged each other around the waist and walked towards the dormitory.
She stood there in a daze, then came to her senses, snorted coldly and chased into the house.
…
At dawn the next day, the master and servant went to the Empress Dowager's palace for further study. Lu Bei entered the secret realm of the imperial city and asked Fox Er for a quiet room. He switched to his second incarnation, the Golden Winged Dapeng, and began to study the secret art of the stars.
[You have come into contact with [Tiangang Battle Method·Fragments], do you want to spend 20,000 skill points to learn it?]
[You have come into contact with [Star Formation·Remnant Formation]. Do you want to spend 5000 skill points to learn it?]
[You have come into contact with [Floating Light Armor]. Do you want to spend 2000 skill points to learn it?]
[You have come into contact with [Life and Death Wheel Seal]. Do you want to spend 5000 skill points to learn it?]
[You have come into contact with [Zhu Xing Dou Shu·Evil Star Chapter], have you…
[you…
There were dozens of drop-down menus, which made Lu Bei's scalp numb. With only 15,000 skill points in stock, there was no way he could learn all of them.
Especially the 'Tian Gang Battle Method·Fragments', a skill inherited from the demon clan, which required 20,000 skill points. He couldn't get that much even if he sold his tutor and Hu Er.
“I can only learn part of it first.”
Lu Bei simply ignored the fact that the technique with 20,000 skill points was useless. Fortunately, Fox Er had an extraordinary heritage. She used to be the daughter of a large demon family. There was no shortage of family elders who could summarize their experiences. These great demons summarized what they had learned and split many skills from the "Tian Gang Battle Method·Fragments".
For example, the floating light turning into armor and the seal of the wheel of life and death all come from it.
Lu Bei studied it for a while. He had seen the skill of Floating Light Armor several times before. The defense was extremely strong. Even the Immortal Sword Fist with a thousand times the damage would find it difficult to break it with one blow.
But compared to the Immortal Sword Body, it is still a little worse, pass.
After sorting out the knowledge for a while, Lu Bei chose two skills to start learning, invested skill points, and put a foot in the aptitude, telling him not to be lazy and to get started.
[Star Formation·Remnant Formation Lv8 (1w/3E)]
[Life and Death Seal Lv10 (1w/3E)]
The star formation uses the star flag as a guide, gathers the power of the stars, creates a world, and generates infinite changes. Although it is a formation, it can also be regarded as a magical power with many wonderful uses.
Those with high comprehension can even use this formation as a foundation to deduce other skills and magical powers.
The Wheel of Life and Death Seal is a combat skill of the Tiangang star. The Tiangang star dominates life and death, controls yin and yang, and has the immortal magical power to create life.
This move injures the body and attacks the soul directly. If used with all your strength, it can not only strip the opponent of their soul, but also destroy their will. It can be called a magical skill that kills with one strike.
Lu Bei had amazing talent. It only took him a few seconds to master two skills. He was still not satisfied for a moment, but because his skill points limited his performance, he gave up in disappointment.
"As frugal as I am, I eventually faced the dilemma of not having enough skill points."
Lu Bei sighed, dragged out the fragment of the Heavenly Book and started to curse. The two characters Zhen and Xun consumed 60,000 of his skill points. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he felt, and the more distressed he felt.
If he tries to learn the heavenly book again in the future, he will be a hammer!
"I need to think of a way to light up a new secondary profession..."
Lu Bei murmured in a low voice. If he remembered correctly, the Zhu family still owed him a debt.
It’s Xinlijun’s account!
"That guy..."
"My cousin was unhappy yesterday because I didn't have her scent of makeup on me. I'm going to go fishing in front of her house now."
