Chapter 139

139 The Lu family

Lu chaoxi and Li Yanling, the fiancé and fiancée, came out to welcome them. A few guests and the five foundation building cultivators of the Lu clan followed behind them.

Li Yanling was standing slightly behind Lu chaoxi.

“Zhao Zhengdong.” Lu chaoxi said, “I’ve received the congratulatory message. Yes, Yan Ling has received it too. But the Lu family doesn’t welcome you, so you should leave.”

Zhao Zhengdong was already relieved that patriarch Lu Qing did not rush out to kill him immediately.

The best time to kill him was to kill him before he could even say anything. In the future, they could say that he was here to seek revenge. Although they didn’t know why a ninth level initial enlightenment cultivator dared to swagger into the home of a Jindan ancestor to seek revenge, they had to have an excuse.

Therefore, the first thing he did when he arrived was to congratulate her to avoid any accidents.

Now that the most dangerous moment had passed, Zhao Zhengdong heaved a huge sigh of relief.

we have to do our best to show our friendship as fellow disciples, ” he said. I’m here to congratulate Junior Sister Yan Ling. Your Lu clan wouldn’t refuse to let me in, would they? ”

congratulations and welcome. However, with the relationship between the Lu family and the Zhao family, and the embarrassing incident that happened at the foot of Yuyan mountain a few days ago, how can I believe that you, Zhao Zhengdong, are here to sincerely congratulate me? ”

Zhao Zhengdong’s expression changed slightly when he heard Lu chaoxi mention the so-called ‘unspeakable things’. However, he soon returned to normal.”I’ve already said my congratulatory words, so I should’ve left. However, since you, Lu chaoxi, are talking about what happened more than eight months ago, then I do have something else to say. our old ancestor Zhao came to attack Yuyan mountain and died at the foot of the mountain. There’s nothing much to say about that. We’ll see who’s capable. However, the Golden core of the patriarch belongs to the Qingfeng sect. Shouldn’t the Lu family return it?”

“There’s such a logic?” Lu chaoxi laughed coldly and said, ” you said it yourself. The Zhao family’s ancestor died here. The Golden core belongs to the Lu family. How dare you mention returning it? ”

“You’re wrong,” The other initial enlightenment cultivator beside Zhao Zhengdong laughed and said, ” the Golden core belongs to old ancestor Zhao. Old ancestor Zhao is a cultivator of our Qingfeng sect. After old ancestor Zhao died, the Golden core should be returned to the Qingfeng sect. It’s already magnanimous of the sect not to pursue old ancestor Zhao’s death. I’m here on the orders of my master, sect leader Kong Tong, to ask for this golden core. This should be fair, right?”

At the mention of ‘Kong Tong’, the scene fell silent.

Daoist Kongtong Lu Qianchang was the strongest cultivator in the Feiyun state. He was in the eighth-stage golden core realm and was only 410 years old. He still had a chance to reach the nascent soul realm.

The eighth-stage golden core realm cultivator was already strong enough.

Of the three remaining cultivators from the Feiyun state, hai Sande and Lu Qing were both at the fifth-stage golden core realm. Only Zhao Zidan, who was at the sixth-stage golden core realm and had completed the Azure Phoenix sword technique at his peak, could compete with Lu Qianchang.

As Zhao Zidan aged and even died, Lu Qianchang was undoubtedly the strongest person in the Feiyun state.

Furthermore, with his identity as the sect leader of the Qingfeng sect, his prestige would be even greater.

What was also worth mentioning was that Lu Qianchang did not come from an aristocratic family. He entered the Qingfeng sect when he was young and started as an outer sect disciple. Then, he was appreciated and accepted as an inner sect disciple, and then became a personal disciple. It was very rare for him to become a golden core cultivator with his talent of three spiritual roots. Moreover, although he had a cultivation partner, he had never given birth to any children. It was said that his primordial yang had never been broken in his life.

His Foundation was all within the Qingfeng sect, and he had no external help. However, it was also because of this that his prestige in the Qingfeng sect was very high. Many cultivators who did not come from aristocratic families would respect him as their master even if they had no master relationship with him.

This was the sect leader’s branch that was independent of the hai clan and Zhao clan.

The person who had come with Zhao Zhengdong this time was one of the representatives of the sect leader’s line, Lu Qianchang’s last disciple, Tian Zheng. He was not even a hundred years old this year, but he was already in the third level of the initial enlightenment stage. His talent was extraordinary.

Tian Zheng’s words, coupled with his status, could indeed represent the intentions of sect leader Kong Tong.

Indeed, the value of a golden core was enough to speak to the sect leader.

But even so, so what?

Could it be that he had to hand over the Golden core with just a word from Lao Ai? Although Kong Tong’s status was high and his prestige was strong, it had not reached such a level.

Li Yanling couldn’t take it anymore and wanted to speak.

She was prepared to say that this item was already in her hands, and it could be considered as her handing it over to the sect. In this way, the pressure would shift from the Lu family to her and the hai family she represented.

Before she could speak, Lu chaoxi had already said, ” “Senior brother Tian’s words are unreasonable. Zhao Zidan was in the wrong first and he was guilty. He was beheaded by my father, so everything on him should belong to my father. Even so, my family is still willing to return this item to the sect, but we will decide who to hand it over to and when to do so. I hope that none of you will interfere in this matter and that my Lu family can make the decision on our own.”

Li Yanling cast a sidelong glance at Lu chaoxi.

Although this man Yingluo wasn’t strong, he had a sense of responsibility.

Logically speaking, the best way to deal with the Lu family right now was to push the pressure to the hai family.

However, Lu chaoxi did not do so. Instead, he carried it.

She then recalled her interactions with Lu chaoxi for the past eight months and chuckled.

“I wonder what’s so funny, Senior Sister li?”

“I’m laughing at you for being so arrogant.” Li Yanling was awoken, but she did not bother to explain the smile on her face. She continued, “the Golden core is a gift from my Lu family. It was given to me as a betrothal gift. I am also a member of the sect. My master is the sect’s Grand Elder, and old ancestor Lu is the sect’s guest elder. Both of them have promised to let me keep this item. When did the sect leader martial uncle order you to come and take the Golden core? Can you show me the decree? If there is, did the decree discuss it with my master? Do you have the sect leader’s seal?”

The string of words was extremely sharp, leaving Zhao Zhengdong, Tian Zheng, and the rest speechless.

They did indeed have a decree in their hands. It was indeed Daoist Kong Tong who had given them this decree, and it was indeed for them to come and take the Golden core. However, this decree was not stamped with the sect leader’s seal.

Previously, they had planned to show the decree at the end of the conversation, but now they had no way to do so.

The meaning of Li Yanling’s last sentence was very obvious. Even if what Daoist Kong Tong said was true, without the sect leader’s seal, they would not recognize it.

The sect leader’s seal could only be used after the sect leader and more than half of the Grand elders agreed. After Zhao Zidan’s death, hai Sande was the only Grand Elder left.

Obviously, hai Sande would not agree. If he didn’t agree, the sect leader’s seal wouldn’t be able to be stamped. If the sect leader’s seal was not sealed, it could not represent the attitude of the entire Qingfeng sect.

The exchange of words contained many dangers.

However, to Lu chaoxi, the most important words in Li Yanling’s words were ‘my Lu family’.

There was a strange feeling in his heart.
