"ink."
Lu Bei looked at the ancient Daxia characters on the token and was confused for a moment.
The mysterious woman has a strange origin and her style of doing things...
Anyway, they are not very friendly to Huangji Sect and Zhuhe. They are disposable items that will be thrown away after use. It is a complete pit.
"Her target is not Zhu He, but you."
The Grand Tutor looked at the token and analyzed, "There is no such person in Wu Zhou, nor in the neighboring Qi, Yan, Xiong Chu, and Xuan Long. Your performance in the Holy Land of the Human Race is too conspicuous, and someone has set their sights on you."
"Maybe..."
Lu Bei nodded. It was not certain whether there were such people or forces in Wu Zhou and other four countries, and it was hard to say whether it was related to the Holy Land Conference, but it was certain that someone or a force had indeed set their sights on him.
Zhu He is just a chess piece, or a discarded piece. The opponent set up this game to test his strength.
The fog was thick, and Lu Bei had no idea of the woman's identity, which force she worked for, let alone her purpose and intentions.
"A one-month appointment, why does it have to take a month? Is that a good day, for burial or groundbreaking?" Fox Er asked curiously.
"Who knows, maybe it's a marriage."
Lu Bei shook his head and put away the token in his hand. He suddenly thought of something and asked the two tall men, "What realm is that person at? Have you seen through it?"
The Taifu was speechless, and Hu Er was silent, both indicating that they did not see through it.
It is very likely that he is a Mahayana monk.
"Interesting, a new thigh has appeared."
Lu Bei muttered to himself that the battle tonight was rather anticlimactic. He remained constant in the face of ever-changing circumstances and prepared an immortality elixir for Hu Er in advance to ensure that she could survive the fourth heavenly tribulation.
In order to intensify the conflict, he specially prepared the corpse of a nine-tailed fox, disguised as Fox Two, who was struck by lightning and turned into ashes.
He himself retained the demon body of the Golden-Winged Roc and the three star flags as a trump card to deal with the reinforcements of the Huangji Sect.
Unexpectedly, the Huangji Sect was not even a lackey, and Zhu He was just a tool, and all the preparations were of no use.
I punched the air, neither going up nor down, which was very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the royal family made a friendly appearance as a surprise and gave him a wave of experience, otherwise it would have been even more painful.
Thinking of this, Lu Bei was happy: "Alright, after tonight, the priorities will be clear. When I do business with the Zhu family again, I will have the final say on how much money to pay and what price to quote."
"Huangji Sect has lost Zhu He, and the royal family's Zhu Xiuyun is dying and seriously injured. The two of them are huddled together for warmth. From now on, there will only be one Zhu in Wu Zhou. They should thank me!"
“Hehehehe—”
The laughter was too hearty, and the Grand Tutor turned around, feeling annoyed that he had to practice dual cultivation with such a traitor and evil person.
Fox Er didn't agree. He patted Lu Bei on the shoulder to show encouragement, hoping that he would become bigger and stronger and create more glory.
The Grand Tutor has a hundred tricks, she has eight hundred tricks, and together with Lu Bei, it makes exactly eight hundred and ninety-nine tricks.
It is conceivable that after tonight, her life in Wu Zhou will become more comfortable.
"By the way, where is the Taiyi Yantiantu? Let this sect master in."
Lu Bei looked at the Grand Tutor eagerly: "The Huangji Sect bullied the weak and humiliated my orphan and widow. The leader Zhu He was executed. Zhu Xian and Zhu Mu must not be let off easily. I will go in and chop off their heads right now."
"Let me be frank with you. It's easy to get in, but hard to get out." The Grand Tutor said calmly.
In the past, she allowed Lu Bei to enter and exit the Taiyi Yantiantu at ease because she was troubled by evil thoughts and could not subdue Lu Bei. Now that the power of yin and yang has reached its peak, it is just right to keep Lu Bei in the underground palace as a cauldron for replenishing her body.
“That makes sense.”
Lu Bei nodded, took out three jade slips and placed them in Hu Er's hand, and said seriously: "Mother, if the child has not come out by noon, you should spread the contents of the jade slips and let everyone in the world know that the master is a filial child."
Fox Two smiled and nodded as he read the jade slip, and he was shaking with joy.
Taifu: “…”
…
The headquarters of Huangji Sect.
The sound of firecrackers in the capital was still continuing, the outer city was relatively quiet, and the Huangji Sect headquarters was silent. A hundred people led by Zhu Yuan collapsed to the ground, all of them beaten half to death by the Grand Tutor.
The Huangji Sect's target was Lu Bei and Hu Er, not her. She was willing to help, but didn't want to get involved, so it wasn't obvious that she took sides.
Lu Bei held Zhu Mu in his hand and kicked the door open. He looked at the remaining traces of the Blood God Formation and frowned.
Zhu Xian and Zhu Mu were both alive. Lu Bei only took the experience of defeating them, not the experience of killing them.
According to the Taifu, Zhu Xian is a war-crazed man with no strategy or wisdom, so he can be retained; although Zhu Mu is not very wise, he can judge the situation and protect himself, so he can also be retained.
If both of them died, Wu Zhou would have three less Tribulation-crossing cultivators, the Huangji Sect would exist in name only, Qi Yan and Xiong Chu would be ready to make a move, and another national war would be inevitable.
Fighting a war means that monks from other countries will come to visit and gain experience, which Lu Bei is happy to see.
Similarly, war means death and countless people being displaced, which is not what he wants to see.
The swords and fists that landed on Zhu Xian and Zhu Mu's heads did not kill them after all.
He could escape the death penalty but could not escape the punishment of living punishment. He would not refuse the treasure house of Huangji Sect.
But Zhu Xian and Zhu Mu can live because they are valuable, and Zhu Yuan and others...
The Grand Tutor also said that Zhu Yuan was the nephew of Zhu He, and the people who set up the formation were all Zhu Yuan’s adopted sons and daughters, and were all die-hard members of the Zhu He faction.
"I am kindhearted by nature and cannot stand the slightest bit of bloodshed. Even if you have gone too far in the past, I do not want to see the bloodshed."
Lu Bei covered his eyes and summoned the Heaven-shaking Seal, which turned into the size of an acre in mid-air and landed on the ground with a bang.
This way you can't see it.
With a wave of experience gained, the inventory accumulated to more than 10 billion on the original basis.
He carried Zhu Mu and walked towards the armory. The result was as expected. There was a secret passage in the Huangji Sect headquarters, and the teleportation array connected to the secret realm of the imperial city, where the treasure house was.
Secret manuals of martial arts, elixir array diagrams, magic weapons and instruments...
Take them all away.
He stood on the moral high ground and was the victor, so he had no guilt in collecting the spoils.
Before leaving the Huangji Sect headquarters, he left Zhu Xian and Zhu Mu behind, followed the exit of the imperial city's secret realm to the imperial garden, and after two steps he arrived at the eldest princess's temporary palace.
He did not want the country and people of the Zhu family, but he would have the final say on whether the eldest princess of the Zhu family should be born or not.
…
The next day, family dinner.
The atmosphere was solemn and awkward, and the old emperor Zhu Bangchun's smile was forced.
Zhu He died and Huangji Zong was crippled. This should have been a great joyous event, but the royal family and Lu Bei had a rift because of it, and it was not a good thing when put together.
Although the royal family was not to blame, Zhu He had held on to a thigh, Zhu Xiuyun and others were powerless to resist, and their will and actions were beyond their control, but Lu Bei, as the leader of the Tianjian Sect, had never been a human being in terms of identity. No matter what the reason for the fall out, no matter how much they wanted to make amends, they could not restore the sweetness of the past.
Moreover, it is impossible to make up for it.
The royal family is gathering the remnants of the Huangji Sect. Intimidated by the trio of Lu Bei, Hu Er and Taifu, they put aside their past grudges and entered a honeymoon period.
Lu Bei was not embarrassed at all. As long as he was not embarrassed, others would be embarrassed. After the family dinner, he said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law and led Zhu Qilan into the secret realm of the imperial city.
The last meal was at the Imperial Palace, and the next meal was at Qingqiu Palace, where I took Zhu Qilan and Hu Er to meet him.
Zhu Qilan followed Lu Bei closely. There was a big battle last night which was called off at dawn. Lu Bei told her the whole story.
As the eldest princess of royal family, she has a good sense of the overall situation. The Zhu family and the Tianjian Sect gradually became strangers, and an irreparable rift appeared.
Caught in a dilemma, not knowing what to do, he held Lu Bei in his arms for the entire night, not even sharing a bite of warm food with Butler Yu.
"Why are you looking so sad, cousin? I told you I won't make things difficult for you."
Lu Bei pinched Zhu Qilan's pretty face and said with a smile: "It was your credit that Wu Zhou didn't have the surname Lu last night. You fed the tiger with your own body and locked the leader of Tianjian Sect to death, making him devoted to you. The thousand-year heritage of the Zhu family can be continued. Your contribution is greater than the sky, you should be happy."
Is there anyone who talks like you
Zhu Qilan rolled his eyes at Lu Bei, raised his hand to hug his arm, and said sadly: "I don't like marriage, and I don't want to be a tool. I like you..."
Lu Bei lowered his head to block it, and after a moment he slowly said: "There is no marriage, you just keep a gigolo outside. From now on, when I go to Changming Mansion, I will not go through the front gate but climb over the back wall."
Zhu Qilan's eyes turned red on the spot after being hit by the thought.
"Your makeup is smudged. Your godmother will laugh at you when she sees it. Let's go back and touch up your makeup first."
"Um."
The two returned to the palace, and when they arrived at Qingqiu Palace, the eldest brother Hu San was also there.
He looks like the eldest son of a fox family, very arrogant and rather mean.
"My cultivation is barely passable, and the late stage of fusion is not yet complete. It's all thanks to him..."
"He's still young. Listen to him..."
"He has the final say at home..."
"Well, listen to mother."
Two hours later, Zhu Qilan left Qingqiu Palace feeling relieved. Guarding two stunning beauties, she instantly turned into a country princess, and the pressure was extremely great.
Lu Bei was also under a lot of pressure. Zhu Qilan had no idea what Lu Bei was doing outside. Fox Two and Fox Three knew more than the other, especially Fox Three. He had several people and legs outside, and the eldest brother even had a small notebook to keep accounts.
For fear that Fox Three would accidentally let the cat out of the bag, he knelt on the ground in front of Fox Two and begged Fox Three not to die.
Fortunately, Fox Three just smiled without saying anything, and was beaming with joy. This saved the dog's life and prevented the Fox family from the tragedy of an old man losing a young man.
"Where to go next? To the Imperial Tutor's Jingshang Palace?"
Lu Bei scratched his head. He hadn't practiced dual cultivation with his teacher yet today. Would it be a bit too much for him to bring his students over to pay New Year's greetings
"Taifu taught me and took great care of me when I was young. I have no choice but to go."
Zhu Qilan was firm in her attitude. She knew that Lu Bei didn't like the capital. After what happened last night, he would dislike it even more in the future.
She should meet the people she needs to meet, and leave the capital with Lu Bei tomorrow, so that Lu Bei won’t have to accommodate her all the time.
"Can you be faster? Actually... Cousin, you know that the relationship between me and the tutor is a bit strained. Every time I see her, I can't control my hands and feet." Lu Bei sighed.
Didn’t you team up last night? How come your relationship is not good
Zhu Qilan gave him a puzzled look, and Lu Bei understood what he meant and shrugged, "With you here, the seniority is too confusing, I don't even know how to address her."
"To each his own."
"Disaster."
My dear sister, you don’t know that it will only get more chaotic if everyone has their own opinions!
