Chapter 238 Ziying Returns Home
After Lu Sanxia finished speaking, the meeting hall fell silent.
They all knew that Xia Daoming was powerful, especially Lu Jinglong, who had once teamed up with Xia Daoming to kill a foundation-building elder of the Spirit Blade Sect, and was even more aware of his strength.
However, no matter how powerful he was, in their opinion, he was probably still at the middle stage of the foundation-building stage.
But the other side had six foundation-building cultivators and many other people.
Even if they invited Xia Daoming, the gap in strength between the two sides was still quite large, and there was no chance of winning.
They could only have one more bargaining chip and strive to divide Hanxing Valley into three parts, with the three families sharing equally.
"Hanxing Valley is related to the long-term development plan of the Lu family. If you invite the young master to come, you can suppress the other party, so I have to trouble you this time.
But if you invite the young master to come, you will be in danger, so I think it's better to forget it. Let's give up Hanxing Valley, and wait until Ziying successfully builds his foundation and comes back one day, and then slowly get back the place."
After a long time, Lu Jinglong patted the armrest again and made a decision.
"Can Ziying really build a foundation?" Lu Suyun asked.
"Ziying is a rare talent in my Lu family. Since you said you can help her build a foundation, Ziying will most likely succeed in building a foundation. But when Ziying went with you, she hadn't yet completed her Qi training. It will take some more years." Lu Jinglong replied.
As soon as Lu Jinglong finished speaking, a clan member came with a letter to report that it was sent by someone from the Xie family.
Lu Jinglong opened the letter and took a few glances. He was so angry that his hair and beard stood up.
"This is too much! This is too much!"
Seeing this, Lu Ye and other clan elders hurriedly took the letter.
After reading it, the clan elders were also furious.
"If they don't make peace with Hanxing Valley in three days, they will flatten my Jingui Peak. This is too much! Our Lu family is a foundation-building force. They directly attack my Jingui Peak. This is a blatant violation of the rules of Wanluo Xianshan."
"Yes, this is a blatant violation of the rules of Wanluo Xianshan. We can take this letter to Tianyuan Peak to find the Fang family and the Tian family of Hushan Peak, and ask them to come forward to seek justice."
"That's right, ask the Fang family and the Tian family to come forward to seek justice!"
Lu Jinglong waved his hand and said, "Our Lu family has only risen for a few years, and except for the young master, there is no background at all. However, the Lingdao Sect and the Xie family are the foundation-building forces that have been passed down for many generations in Wanluo Xianshan. Not only are they related to the Fang family and the Tian family, but also have a strong relationship with the Fang family and the Tian family. The family is not comparable to us, and it is also related to many other foundation-building forces.
Since they dared to send such a letter, it means that they have long been sure that we are just a newly promoted foundation-building family with a shallow foundation in Wanluo Xianshan. Even if we go to find someone to reason, no one will be willing to come forward to help. Moreover, the Hanxing Valley was originally shared by us and the Yan family. Back then, the Xie family took in the Yan family, and now it is reasonable to use the Yan family to make things happen. "
"What a lie, the head of the Yan family and his nephew wanted to practice evil methods, not only killing many people in our Lu family, but also killing people in the Yan family. Fortunately, my junior brother and the head of the family..." Lu Ye heard this with indignation.
"It's been several years since the incident, who would really care about these? The Xie family pushed the Yan family out, just for a reason to show off." Lu Jinglong waved his hand to interrupt.
"What should we do? Are we just going to give up the Hanxing Valley like this?" Lu Ye said unwillingly.
Lu Jinglong gently pulled his beard and remained silent for a long time.
After a while, Lu Jinglong was about to speak, but suddenly he showed a trace of surprise and surprise on his face. With a wave of his hand, the door of the meeting hall opened.
Outside the gate, on the open square, four people and a eagle were walking slowly.
One of them was tall and sturdy, like a crane standing out from the crowd of chickens.
"Ziying is back!"
"The two ladies are here too! Go out and greet them quickly."
In the meeting hall, everyone was excited and hurriedly stood up to greet them.
"Hello, Madam Liu, Madam Ji!"
Lu Jinglong took the lead and walked to the four people, bowing respectfully to Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue.
The elders behind him also followed suit, and Lu Ye was no exception.
Xia Daoming was the lord of the Lu family.
Even though Lu Jinglong was now a foundation-building cultivator, he should not be rude to Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue.
"Master Lu, don't be polite. This is my sister, Shang Rui." After Ji Wenyue returned the greeting, she specially introduced Shang Rui.
Lu Jinglong had naturally noticed Shang Rui, but she came with the two ladies, so he didn't dare to investigate her cultivation level to avoid being offensive.
Seeing Ji Wenyue say that Shang Rui was her sister, he was slightly shocked and bowed and said, "So it's you, Brother Shang, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!"
"Nice to meet you!" Shang Rui returned the greeting indifferently.
Seeing Shang Rui was a little arrogant, Lu Jinglong was slightly stunned, but he didn't take it to heart.
Since she is Madam Ji's sister, it's okay to put on airs.
Finally, everyone looked at Lu Ziying.
Everyone stared at Lu Ziying with eyes like swords.
"Foundation building! You actually succeeded in building the foundation!" Lu Jinglong quickly shook all over and said in a trembling voice.
"Foundation building! Oh my God, my Lu family has two foundation building cultivators!" Lu Suyun and other elders were so excited that they burst into tears.
"Ziying has established his foundation. If we can invite him back, Lingdao Sect and Xie Family will be cautious." Soon, Lu Jinglong stroked his beard with a happy smile on his face.
"Why invite Master Uncle back? Could it be that Lingdao Sect and Xie Family bullied our Lu Family again?" Lu Ziying's two big eyes like copper bells widened immediately after hearing this.
"It's not urgent. The two ladies and Shang Daoyou have come from afar and are tired from the journey. They should first..." Lu Jinglong said.
"It doesn't matter. Master Lu, please tell us what happened first!" Ji Wenyue said.
"In this case, please let the two ladies and Taoist friends go to the meeting hall and rest for a while, and let me talk slowly." Lu Jinglong hesitated and said.
Then everyone entered the meeting hall.
Lu Jinglong invited Liu Qiaolian, Ji Wenyue and Shangrui to sit down.
Shangrui is the ancestor of Fake Pill, so he will not be polite to Lu Jinglong.
Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue originally wanted to be polite, but seeing that Shangrui had already done his duty, they followed Shangrui to sit down.
After the three of them were seated, Lu Jinglong ordered tea and cakes to be served, and after some pleasantries, he told Lingdao Sect and Xie Family to rob Hanxing Valley, and set a three-day deadline.
It would be better if Lu Jinglong didn't say anything. As soon as he said this, Lu Ziying was furious, and a powerful aura burst out from his body, saying: "The Lingdao Sect and the Xie family are really bullying people too much. If you don't kill me well today, With the arrogance of the Soul-Slaying Blade Sect and the Xie family, they thought our Lu family was easy to bully!"
"The Lingdao Sect and the Xie family have joined forces with six foundation-building monks, as well as many Qi refining experts. We thought that even if we invite the young master back, there is still a big difference in strength. On the contrary, we will put the young master in danger, so we have already prepared Be patient and let Hanxing Valley out first.
But now that you are already a Foundation Establishment monk, if you include the Young Master, we are equivalent to three Foundation Establishment monks, and the Young Master should be comparable to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. In this way, as long as we show our strength, they It should be possible to throw a rat deterrent.
Therefore, I am thinking about asking the young master to come out. I wonder what the two ladies think? If it feels inappropriate, the Lu family will give up Hanxing Valley first at worst. Now Ziying is already a foundation-building monk. She is still young, and she will definitely be able to reach the advanced stage of foundation-building in the future, and then she can get her capital back with interest. "After Lu Jinglong said this, he stood up and raised his hands to Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue to ask for instructions.
Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue had very subtle expressions after hearing this.
Why do the Lingdao Sect and the Xie family need their master to come forward?
Seeing the subtle expressions on the two people's faces, Lu Jinglong's heart sank slightly, thinking that they didn't want Xia Daoming to get involved.
But even so, Lu Jinglong didn't have any complaints in his heart, he was just grateful and even felt ashamed.
In just over a year, the young master helped his Lu family cultivate a foundation-building disciple.
What a price to pay!
But what have the Lu family done for the young master these years?
Thinking of this, Lu Jinglong felt more and more ashamed. Just when he was about to take back what he had just said, Lu Ziying could no longer hold back and said: "Master, the Lingdao Sect and the Xie family don't need our uncle's help. We will do it." Can be tidied up.”
After saying that, Lu Ziying cupped her hands towards Shangrui and said, "Master, if things get serious, don't take action now. This disciple has just become a foundation-building monk and needs someone to practice his skills with."
"Yes, yes, Sister Qiaolian and I also want to join in the fun. Sister, sit down first. If it doesn't work, we can take action later." Ji Wenyue said with eyes brightening after hearing this.
She and Liu Qiaolian said that they had been in the world of immortal cultivation for some years, but they had almost never fought with anyone.
Moreover, both of them have a puppet machine wolf in their storage rings whose combat power is comparable to that of the early stage of foundation establishment, and they also want to take it out to test its power.
"Okay, they were the ones who deceived people in the first place. You can do whatever you want. The development of the Lu family is really slow now and they can't keep up with Dao Ming. Since they have to come to our door, let's just send them away directly. Let's annex it," Shangrui wrote lightly.
"What? Annex them?" Lu Jinglong and others were dumbfounded, almost doubting their own ears.
Those are two major foundation-building forces. Not only are there six foundation-building monks in total, one of them is in the middle stage of foundation-building. They have many disciples and a strong foundation. The mountain gate has a powerful defensive formation, and they have a wide network of contacts.
Two major forces came to attack Jin Guifeng, and the Lu family kept them at bay. This was no problem, but if they wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack their mountain gate and annex them, some major forces in Wanluo Immortal Mountain would inevitably intervene.
Under such circumstances, even the late-stage foundation-building monks would not dare to annex these two major forces.
Besides, the Lu family has little strength now, so annexing them would be too arrogant.
