Chapter 716: Qingxuan Youth, His Dagger Revealed
There were indeed people in Tiance Mansion who were paying close attention to the downfall of Qingxuan.
Even a lot of information has already been recorded.
When Qingxuan was destroyed, the Supreme Guan Xuelan fled, and there was no news about the life and death of the major peak masters. Most of Qingxuan's elite and many elders were killed or wounded in that battle.
But Qingxuan is a holy land after all, with a large population. When it saw that the situation was hopeless, Qingxuan experienced several major routs. Many people escaped from Qingxuan at that time and completely left Qingxuan. In fact, many of these people were later liquidated and paid the price for the evil they had done.
However, not all people are evil.
Quite the opposite.
Some people joined Tiance Mansion after leaving Qingxuan.
Among them was a man named Song Xingchen.
This person was once a disciple of Yudan Peak in the Qingxuan Holy Land. He was not outstanding when he was in Qingxuan. In fact, he was often bullied by his fellow disciples because he was not very sociable. However, when investigating afterwards, it was found that Song Xingchen had indeed never been involved in such corruption. It was precisely because of this that he seemed out of place in Qingxuan.
but……
What really made Song Xingchen well-known was that he once blocked Gu Xiu during the battle of Qingxuan's destruction.
To know.
This is not just eye-catching.
After all, according to outsiders, when he first went to Qingxuan, Gu Xiu went there with resentment and hatred, not to mention that Gu Xiu borrowed the power of the Supreme and killed a Supreme, which made him carry a bit of ferocity. At least at that time, no one in the entire Qingxuan dared to stop Gu Xiu.
Whoever stands in the way will die!
Only Song Xingchen.
This ordinary disciple of Yudan Peak, who was mediocre and even often bullied when he was in Qingxuan, stopped Gu Xiu when he went to Yudan Peak.
This scene immediately attracted the attention of Tiance Mansion.
Gu Xiu did not attack Song Xingchen afterwards, but let him leave. After leaving Qingxuan, Song Xingchen received an invitation from Tiance Mansion. Now, only half a year has passed, and he has begun to emerge among the latest batch of Tiance Mansion disciples.
But what really attracted the attention of the secret guards was.
After joining Tiance Mansion, Song Xingchen actually started investigating the case involving Lu Yu's alias from twenty years ago. Lu Yu had been on high alert, preventing the other party from finding anything.
At that time, the secret guard felt a little strange.
but now……
He guessed the answer.
As expected, Lu Yu sighed:
"Yes, Song Xingchen, you are my own flesh and blood."
"When I found out about my relationship with him, it was already too late. I couldn't do anything but secretly help him. But not long after, Qingxuan was besieged."
"I went to Qingxuan in the hope of keeping him safe."
"I know I broke the rules, but there's nothing I can do. I owe them and their son so much. Even if it's a violation of the rules, if Gu Xiu really wants to attack him, I can't just watch him get into trouble..."
The secret guard fell silent.
This is indeed a confusing matter that is difficult to explain.
Logically speaking, when Lu Yu knew about his offspring, he should have recognized him as soon as possible. However, because everything he said back then was a lie, he didn't dare to tell the truth.
Others even regard being an orphan and a widow as their life goal.
It's all fake, all lies he told back then.
Who can accept this?
But if this matter is not mentioned, it means that Lu Yu will never be able to truly recognize Song Xingchen in his entire life.
Can……
Any secret in this world is ultimately just paper covering fire. The paper may be thick now, but one day it will no longer be able to cover the fire.
"Okay, we were supposed to be talking about Gu Xiu, why did you bring up my mess?" Lu Yu said, forcibly stopping the topic:
"But that time, I really saw Gu Xiu's situation clearly."
"A person who can bully his sect like that and still treat kindness as kindness and grudges as grudges without involving others is a person with a righteous heart."
“People like that.”
"Maybe the Grand Governor guessed wrong, but at least he is indeed a trustworthy person."
"At least I think that betting on him..."
"It can't be worse!"
Having said that, Lu Yu suddenly frowned and looked towards the door.
The secret guard's eyes also focused instantly.
The next moment, the whole person disappeared in the house.
"Bang!"
At this moment, Mei Huaping, who had been unconscious, suddenly woke up and rushed over with a furious look on her face:
"Lu Yu, you bastard, you actually attacked me, you..."
It was obvious that he came to Lu Yu to find him and ask for an account of blame, but he suddenly stopped talking because he saw Lu Yu silently drawing his longbow.
Aim at him!
This scene frightened Mei Huaping so much that she swallowed back the rest of her words.
Lu Yu, on the other hand, seemed to have just noticed him. "Hey, Master Mei, when did you get here? You're truly a prodigy of the Suling Palace. You have such a good body. By the way, you came to me, not to vent your anger on me or demand an explanation, right?"
This is exactly what Mei Huaping is thinking at the moment.
only……
It would have been fine if Lu Yuruo had just said that, but he still hadn't put away the longbow he had raised, and it was even still pointing at him.
What can he say about this?
"of course not!"
Mei Huaping quickly looked up and forced a smile: "I came here to thank General Lu for your timely assistance."
"Really? But I don't think so." Lu Yu, still smiling, looked Mei Huaping up and down for a while and said, "Since you came to express your gratitude, why didn't Mr. Mei bring any thank-you gifts?"
Thank you gift???
Mei Huaping almost lost his temper on the spot, but in the end, facing Lu Yu's longbow, he dared not say anything more. He could only honestly take out a treasure from his storage ring: "I've prepared it, I've prepared it."
Seeing this, Lu Yu smiled and put away his longbow, then patted Mei Huaping's shoulder earnestly:
"Brother Mei, am I the type to be petty? Given our relationship, I'll definitely do everything I can to save you if you're in danger. Why bother giving you a gift? It's only natural. Sigh... Since you're so kind, I won't refuse. Remember, don't do this next time."
Mei Huaping nearly bit her teeth to pieces, but in the end, she could only reveal a smile that was uglier than crying:
"Thank you, General Lu."
"This time, I came here not only to thank General Lu for saving my life at the critical moment, but also to ask where that guy from Wanbao Tower is now. I want to meet him."
"Of course there's no problem. When I captured that kid and put him in the prison, I had already made sure that he would not be allowed to survive. I even waited for you, Brother Mei, to wake up and then hand that kid over to you for your punishment." Lu Yu laughed and agreed readily.
just.
Before Mei Huaping could show any joy, Lu Yu changed the subject and said, "We just need to wait."
"Wait?" The smile on Mei Huaping's face froze instantly.
Lu Yu nodded and said, "That kid is very powerful, especially his spiritual power is very special. I almost got myself into trouble. Brother Mei wants him just to vent his anger. It doesn't matter who vents first. Let me torture him for three to five days first."
"But……"
"I understand, I understand. You're worried that I'll kill this kid. Don't worry, I'll be careful and at least leave him some breath."
"but……"
"Oh right, you're planning to use this kid to blackmail Wanbao Tower, right? Don't worry, I'm already prepared. As soon as this shabby place resumes communication, I'll immediately chop off one of that kid's hands and send him to Wanbao Tower..."
Mei Huaping almost vomited blood.
She tried to speak several times, but was interrupted every time. She held it in for a long time. When the other party finally stopped talking, Mei Huaping hurriedly said, "General Lu..."
"Emergency report from the city gate~!"
Just at this moment, an urgent report suddenly came from outside the door. Even if Mei Huaping had a thousand words to say, she had to hold them back because Lu Yu had already opened the door and asked about the situation with a frown.
But then I heard the soldier outside the door saying hurriedly:
"Sir, the monks in the city secretly gathered and took advantage of the chaos to attack the city gate. Now the city gate has been breached, and a large number of monks in the city have fled!"
As soon as these words came out.
Mei Huaping's expression suddenly changed, and Lu Yu beside her also looked gloomy.
"Waste, how could this happen?"
"This... maybe the people in the city saw that the defenders were showing weakness, and there was no Mei Huaping to stop them, so they took the opportunity... took the opportunity..." The soldier hesitated.
"Gather everyone and chase them immediately!" Lu Yu didn't wait for him to say anything more, and immediately said:
"If anyone lets this person out and spreads the news of this place, I'm done for!"
"No matter how many people you use, you must bring all those people back to me!"
“Don’t miss any of them!!!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the soldier nodded immediately.
next moment.
Across the entire North Gate, a large number of elite troops immediately rushed out one after another, chasing after all those who fled the city.
Even several masters in the Heavenly Prison were called out this time.
Strive to mobilize all your strength.
We can't let anyone escape successfully!
Mei Huaping was also startled, but at this moment, a black light suddenly flashed in his eyes. The next moment, the panic on Mei Huaping's face because someone had escaped turned into calmness.
Seeing that Lu Yu had already deployed his troops and arranged for pursuit, Mei Huaping immediately said:
"General Lu, I still need to meet the man in the dungeon to confirm something."
"How come you have no vision at all..." Lu Yu frowned and was about to curse again, but when he met the other party's gaze, he swallowed the rest of his words back.
"It's just a quick glimpse, there's nothing wrong with that." But then Mei Huaping said, "I hope General Lu won't stop me."
Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced around subconsciously.
Didn't see anyone.
But he felt multiple streams of energy, all of which were now locked onto him.
obviously.
There is no use in procrastinating.
but……
Glancing at the dungeon and the soldiers still guarding the door, Lu Yu grinned.
"Brother Mei, since you're going to meet, if I try to stop you, it would seem like I'm being tactless. So, I'll take you to see Guan Qiyu now."
talking.
Lu Yu took the lead and walked towards the underground palace with Mei Huaping.
He kept his head down the whole time, counting silently. Mei Huaping, standing beside him, couldn't help but frown, wanting to urge Lu Yu to go faster. However, Lu Yu wasn't too slow, but he definitely wasn't fast either. Finally, she couldn't help but ask:
"What is General Lu counting?"
"Haha, counting is very important."
"Something very important? What is it?"
"Of course..." Lu Yu had a bright smile on his face, but the next moment, that smile turned into a sinister one:
"It's your time to die..."
Death...death date?
Mei Huaping's heart suddenly tightened, and he almost subconsciously wanted to escape quickly, but before he could move, a terrifying spiritual energy suddenly burst out from the shoulder that Lu Yu had patted before.
In an instant, his meridians were shattered!
At the same time, a domineering spiritual energy of a powerful Void Refining expert also swept out from the Dantian.
Look down.
But he saw that Lu Yu had already thrown a punch, completely shattering his Dantian Qi Sea!
