Martial Dao Great Emperor

Chapter 54: Controversy

In a palace at Xiaoyaowaimen, Lu Feichen and Lu Mengyao and his daughter sat opposite each other.

Before Lu Mengyao could ask, Lu Feichen took the initiative to speak, and said, "Mengyao, do you know why the deacon of the outer door in Zhang Luliang district is worth letting the elder of the inner door intervene so that I cannot deal with him?"

Lu Mengyao was slightly taken aback when she heard her father mention this. Of course, she remembered that it was because Zhang Luliang secretly attacked Luo Xiu during the assessment. This behavior was considered a violation of the rules, and her father personally ordered the order as the master of the door. , Imprisoned him in a water prison, abolished the cultivation base, suffered the pain of piercing the bone of the pipa.

However, Zhang Luliang had just been imprisoned in the water jail, and someone held a handbook from the elder of the inner door and asked for release. The elder of the inner door had a higher status than the master of the outer door, so Lu Feichen could only release the people.

"Daughter doesn't understand." Lu Mengyao shook her head in doubt.

The status of the Inner Sect elder is higher than that of the Outer Sect Master, and Zhang Luliang is no more than an Outer Sect Deacon, and the difference in status is even more incomparable. How could it be worthy of the Inner Sect elder's personal rescue?

If Zhang Luliang really had the inner elder as the background, how could he be a little deacon at the outer door?

Lu Mengyao is smart. Although she can't figure it out, she can guess it. This may be due to the change in her father's attitude and the special circumstances he said.

Lu Feichen took a deep breath, his expression a bit solemn, as the power of the outer door, in a high position, Lu Mengyao hadn't seen this expression on his father's face for a long time.

"Not long ago, the headmaster returned from the Jiufeng Mountain Range, but he was seriously injured, and now he has run out of time." Lu Feichen opened his mouth and said shocking news.

The head he said is naturally the master of the Xiaoyao Sect, and those who can sit in the position of the Sect must also be the top powerhouse of the Xiaoyao Sect!

"The head is injured, time is running out?" Lu Mengyao looked shocked, "The head is a powerful man who stepped into the realm of the king in martial arts. How could he be hurt like this?"

As for the Jiufeng Mountain Range mentioned by his father, Lu Mengyao has never heard of it.

"I dominate Yunlong County in the Xiaoyao Sect, and cannot do without the powerful martial arts cultivation base of the head, so this news has been blocked, and only a few people in the sect know about it."

There was a hint of warning in Lu Feichen's eyes, "If the news goes out, not only some forces in Yunlong County will be ready to move, but the forces from other counties in the Tianwu Kingdom may also do things that are detrimental to my Xiaoyaomen. Come."

Hearing this, Lu Mengyao nodded cautiously, saying that he would not tell anyone else the news.

Lu Feichen groaned for a while, and then continued: "The head's injury is irreversible. Once the head falls, the Xiaoyao Sect cannot be left alone. The next head will be selected from several elders. In the middle, the cultivation base and prestige of the two elders are the highest."

"The two elders are Di Sigu and Kong Qingyu. The cultivation bases of the two elders are almost the same. There are disciples and supporters in both the internal and external sects. There will be competition for the ownership of this head."

"Nowadays, both the deacon, the protector, and the elders, both inside and outside, have taken their positions and chose the elders they support and support. Your father, I, support Elder Kong Qingyu."

After listening to these words, Lu Mengyao finally understood.

His father was a supporter of Kong Qingyu's faction, and Zhang Luliang, the deacon of the outer door, obviously should be a supporter of the Elder Disguise faction.

Although Zhang Luliangs status is humble, at this critical moment, Elder Di Sigu naturally wants to protect the people of his faction, in order to obtain more loyal support, and let those who support him know that they choose to support Di Sigu. It is definitely the right choice.

Lu Mengyao did not expect that this was actually mixed with the struggle for power between the inner sect factions.

Elder Kong Qingyu is highly respected and is the mentor of her father Lu Feichen. As a disciple, at this critical moment, it is natural to stand on the side of the master.

Although the status of the outer door is not as good as that of the inner door, it is also very important, so Lu Feichen's support will play a big factor in whether Elder Kong Qingyu can obtain the position of head.

"Although Master has my support, there are only two of the nine elders in the inner door who support him."

Having said this, Lu Feichen sighed, and said, "Master, his old man treats me as kind as a mountain. In the past, if it weren't for the guidance and guidance of Master, can I have Lu Feichen today?"

"But the elder of the inner door is respected, and the master is only supported by two people, while Di Sigu has as many as five supporters. If there is no accident, the master will definitely be defeated in this battle for the head."

"And once he is defeated and Di Sigu takes the position of the head, he is bound to suppress the master faction, including your father and I will also be implicated, and misfortunes and blessings will happen!"

Listening to what her father said, Lu Mengyao could feel the stakes in it.

Among the hegemonic powers such as Xiaoyaomen, it is normal to fight for power, and it is normal for the victor to suppress the faction of the loser to stabilize his position.

But how does all this have to do with Luo Xiu and me?

As Lu Mengyao was thinking about this issue, Lu Feichen slowly spoke, "Among the nine elders in the inner door, three of them have the best relationship. They worshipped brothers and sisters, and they were born and died several times when they were young."

"One of the elders has a grandson named Gou Jinchuan, who is deeply loved by the three elders, and is now an inner disciple."

"Elder Gou contacted me a few days ago and said that his grandson has long loved you. If we can conclude a marriage, Elder Gou will persuade his two brothers and sisters to stand by your ancestor."

At this point, Lu Mengyao, no matter how stupid he is, can understand what her father means, not to mention she is icy and smart.

"Father, do you want me to be a tool for exchanging power?"

Lu Mengyao was anxious on the spot, stood up suddenly, and looked at her father sullenly.

Lu Feichen shook his head and smiled bitterly. No one knew his daughter better than him. He had known for a long time that once he said this, she would definitely be what she is now.

"Mengyao, your mother died early. From childhood to adulthood, father never opposed any of your ideas. At the beginning, you could not heal your Fire Yang Juemai. You must practice the Bingxin Art of Tianshan Snow Valley to suppress it, but you must If you marry in the Snow Valley of the Tianshan Mountains, you would rather die than go to Qingyun City. Father didn't force you."

"This time, once your Patriarch fails to compete for the position of the head, then maybe your father and I will have to worry about my life!" Lu Feichen sighed.

"Father, I..." Lu Mengyao didn't know what to say for a while. She couldn't ignore her father's life and death, but the price was to marry Gou Jinchuan, which also made her unacceptable.

She originally thought that she could not have a future. Fire Yang Juemai made it difficult for her to live past twenty-five years old, but Luo Xiu cured her Huoyang Juemai, not only giving her a future, but also giving her a chance. A feeling that will never be remembered forever.

For Lu Mengyao, she would rather die than betray her relationship with Luo Xiu.

But... If your father is implicated and worried about his life because of his persistence, isn't he unfilial?

On one side is the father who loved me most since childhood, and on the other side is the happiness I pursued.

How should I choose?

Lu Mengyao was at a loss for a while, and her mind was blank.

Lu Feichen also stood up and stroked her cheek, "Father loves you the most, so naturally he won't force you to marry someone you don't like. If you really want to be with Luo Xiu, Dad will arrange for you and Luo Xiu. Leaving Yunlong County will prevent you from being implicated."

Lu Mengyao's body trembled, and her father thought more about herself at this time, which made her feel moved and a little guilty.

"Father, I...I want to think about it." Lu Mengyao was confused.

"Okay, Dad will give you time to think about it, but time is tight and can only give you three days." Lu Feichen said.

...

After Lu Feichen and Lu Mengyao left, Luo Xiu felt inexplicably irritable and uneasy.

Until late at night, he slowly opened his eyes, and the injuries he suffered from the life and death duel with Lin Jingyun had completely recovered.

The ability to directly repair the life line, as long as it is not a fatal injury, he can quickly recover in a short time.

But the depression, irritability, and restlessness that lingered in my heart did not go away for a long time.

The battle with Lin Jingyun made Luo Xiu understand a truth.

At the time of life and death, the realm of cultivation cannot completely determine a person's combat ability, and powerful formations can play a decisive role at critical moments.

For example, the third-order array magic treasure used by Lin Jingyun ignited the golden sword energy comparable to the attack of the innate martial artist. If it were replaced with other Qihai Seventh Layer or even Qihai Eighth Layer, it would be almost impossible to resist.

Of course, the magic array treasures are expensive, and not everyone has a powerful array magic treasure.

But there is no doubt that the magical treasures of the formation may indeed counterattack at a critical moment, or capsize in the gutter.

There are roughly three types of magical treasures, one is offensive, such as the golden orb used by Lin Jingyun.

There is also a defensive one, such as the aquamarine bracelet that was given to him by the Lord Qingyun, which was later transferred to Lu Mengyao.

The third type is auxiliary, such as the spirit gathering array, etc. Generally auxiliary array treasures are also called array devices.

In Lin Jingyun's storage wristband, there are more than one hundred low-grade vitality stones, a refining pill, a fifth-grade sword technique, and a second-tier spirit gathering formation device.

These things are basically of no value to Luo Xiu.

However, Luo Xiu found a jade pendant in it. It was actually a defensive third-order magic treasure. It could release a wood-attribute shield, which was capable of defensive attack and healing. The effect of.

Among the many disciples of Xiaoyao Sect, Lin Jingyun's status is not high, and his strength is not very strong. It stands to reason that there should not be such a precious array of treasures.

Thinking that the notarization of this life-and-death duel was Zhang Luliang, Luo Xiu could also think with his toes that there must be an old thing behind it.

"At the beginning, the Zhang family took the initiative to provoke me. An old guy who has lived for more than a hundred years will deal with me indiscriminately. He wants to kill me everywhere. When I have the strength, I will find a chance to kill. You old man!"

When he remembered that Zhang Luliang was targeting himself everywhere, Luo Xiu's eyes flashed fiercely.

He is not a soft-hearted person, because he knows very well that in this world, kindness can only be regarded as cowardly.

Whether it was the brutal beating of Zhang Hao in the Qingyun Wudian, the abolition of Zhang Hai, and the kowtow of Zhao Liang's head, or the later killing of people in Shuiwu Mountain and Baqi Mountain, Luo Xius arrogant and cruel character is actually It is also vividly revealed.

Standing in front of the window, Luo Xiu looked at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky, frowned slightly, and the restlessness in his heart made it difficult for him to calm down.
