Chapter 1002: Take the initiative to come to the door
Lu Ping'an's words were not said casually.
At the beginning, he personally told Lao Ping that his father Lao Liangdong was killed by the Shadow Demon.
If Lao Ping really believed his words, he would definitely regard the Demon Sect as his enemy.
After learning that Lin Shixiong and the others were members of the Demon Sect, he was inevitably impulsive.
Chun Yu Feiqiong said: "Lao Ping is a new disciple, his strength is only in the martial arts realm, as long as he has a good relationship with Elder Shang, he should be fine!"
"Hopefully!" Lu Ping'an sighed.
Subsequently, the three exchanged pleasantries for a while before cutting off contact.
After Lu Ping'an put away the sound transmission stone, he simply cleaned it up and headed towards Anyang City.
In less than an hour, he came to the Tianhong Inn in Anyang City.
"Stop!"
The Tianhong Inn had been chartered by the Nanyue Sword Sect, and Lu Ping'an was about to enter the inn when he was stopped by a disciple of the Nanyue Sword Sect.
The man didn't wait for Lu Ping'an to report to his home, so he scolded: "Tianhong Inn has been chartered by us, if you know a little bit, hurry up and get out of me!"
When Lu Ping'an heard this, he was a little annoyed in his heart.
I didn't say anything, so I was scolded first, how can there be such hospitality in the world?
However, thinking that Situ Deng had just died, these people might still be in grief and unable to extricate themselves, so Lu Ping'an was relieved.
He opened his mouth and explained: "I have something to ask to see Elder Yu below, please report it!"
"What are you? Master Yu is something you can see if you want to?" a disciple of the Nanyue Sword Sect pointed to Lu Ping'an and reprimanded.
Lu Ping'an was not angry, and said with a smile: "Under Lu Ping'an!"
"What?"
When the disciples heard this, they immediately became vigilant and put on a posture that they were ready to make a move with Lu Ping'an at any time.
Lu Ping'an said: "Don't misunderstand, I'm not here to find trouble, but I just want to clarify some things with you Elder Yu!"
"You killed our master, what else is there to say! Since you dare to come today, don't think about leaving alive!" one of the disciples said, and without waiting for Lu Ping'an to explain, he stabbed Lu Ping'an in the chest with a sword.
Clang!
Because of the disparity in strength, Lu Ping'an easily caught his sword with his two fingers.
explained: "Please also ask Brother Tai to stop for the time being and listen to me." Brother Situ's death really has nothing to do with me, there are other people!"
"Sophistry, my master died of demon skills, in this world, apart from you, who would have such a vicious exercise?" The man didn't believe it at all, drew back his long sword, and stabbed at Lu Ping'an again.
Bang Dang!
Lu Ping'an had no choice but to flash his figure, and slapped his palm on the man's wrist, knocking down the long sword in his hand.
He knew that it would be useless to explain any more, so he simply said: "Just a few of you, you are not my opponents at all, if you really want to kill me, go and invite your elders!"
The man didn't listen to Lu Ping'an's words and went to ask the elders, but said to the other disciples behind him: "Senior disciples, set up a formation!"
"Yes!" the disciples of the Nanyue Sword Sect responded in unison.
Then, they set up a formation and surrounded Lu Ping'an.
"Stop!"
The disciples of the Nanyue Sword Sect were about to make a move, when an old man in a white robe walked out of the inn when he heard the movement and stopped them.
Those people around Lu Ping'an stood in place in a daze, not daring to take any action.
The disciple who first stood up and made a move against Lu Ping'an said unwillingly: "Uncle Shi, he is Lu Ping'an, the murderer of Master, why don't you let us avenge Master?"
Yu Qiu ignored it, waved his hand at the disciples, and said, "Are my words useless?
When those disciples heard this, they didn't dare to disobey Yu Qiu's order, and immediately retreated behind Yu Qiu.
Only then did Yu Qiu speak: "Master Lu first killed my junior brother Situ Deng, and now he has found Yu, shouldn't he be here to kill him?"
"Elder Yu misunderstood, I did fight with Brother Situ, but he was not killed by me!" Lu Ping'an explained.
How could Yu Qiu believe Lu Ping'an's words, and snorted coldly: "My junior brother died in the Demon Sect Exercises, in the whole world, apart from your Tianyuan Sword Sect, who will also have the Demon Sect Exercises?"
"Shadow Demon, the reason why you killed Brother Situ is to blame us for the Tianyuan Sword Sect!" Lu Ping'an gave a straightforward answer.
"You think I'm going to believe your nonsense?" Yu Qiu said coldly.
Lu Ping'an said: "Although I have only one side relationship with Brother Situ, I appreciate him very much, before he left, I also asked him to drink, how could I kill him? On the day of Brother Situ's tragic death, his heavy sword was thrown into the inn where we lived, and now the sword is still inserted in the inn where we live, and Elder Yu knew at a glance that I was not lying!"
Yu Qiu said coldly: "Do you want to go to Shouchun City because of us, so as to catch us all?"
"I don't have that in the end. Elder Yu just imagined that my Tianyuan Sword Sect had not yet been established, and it had caused an uproar in the rivers and lakes, and many people were eyeing our Tianyuan Sword Sect, and they couldn't wait to get rid of it as soon as possible. In this case, how can we offend your Nanyue Sword Sect again and make more enemies for ourselves?" Lu Ping'an patiently explained.
When Yu Qiu heard this, his face was slightly better: "There is some truth in these words!"
Seeing that his attitude was relaxed, Lu Ping'an told him in detail about his meeting with Situ Deng, and said: "Elder Yu is Brother Situ's senior brother, and he knows his temperament the best. Whether I said this nonsense or not, you must know it in your heart!"
Yu Qiu was suspicious: "What is the matter with the Shadow Demon you just said?"
Things have come to this point, and Lu Ping'an has no need to hide it, and told Yu Qiu everything about the shadow demon.
When Yu Qiu heard this, he frowned and asked, "Is this serious?"
Lu Ping'an said: "Earlier, I caught a member of the Shadow Demon in Fengjian City, named Duan Tianzuo, and now he is being locked up in the Cloud Sword Gate Prison, suffering from whipping, if Elder Yu doesn't believe it, he can send someone to the Cloud Sword Gate, just ask!"
"In that case, then I'll trust you for the time being, and you can go back. As for the matter of the Shadow Demon, I will send someone to the Cloud Sword Gate to verify!" Yu Qiu said, then turned around to go back to the inn.
Lu Ping'an stopped him and said, "Elder Yu, the Shadow Demon is very despicable and cruel, since they dare to do something to Brother Situ, I am afraid they will also target you, and please return to Shouchun City with us, and we will be responsible for your safety!"
Although the strength of the Tianyuan Sword Sect is not very good, Shouchun City is an important town on the border of the Dongyu Kingdom.
Less than fifty miles outside the city, there was a large army of Dongyu State stationed.
The Shadow Demon probably also knew about this, so he didn't dare to openly attack Lu Ping'an and the others in Shouchun City.
Yu Qiu didn't care about this at all: "It is not known whether what Fang just said is true or false, and now he wants us to go to Shouchun City, what is his intention? Not to mention that there may not be any shadow demons at all, even if they exist, what are they afraid of?"
Lu Ping'an said: "As Elder Yu said, you are not even afraid of shadow demons, are you still afraid of Lu?"
"Shouchun City, we will naturally go, but now is not the time!" Yu Qiu replied lukewarmly.
Lu Ping'an asked: "I don't know what is the important thing for you to come to Anyang City?
Yu Qiu snorted coldly: "Master Lu deliberately came to Anyang City, is it for my junior brother, or does he have other plans?"
"Brother Situ and Zai saw it at first sight, and now that he has been killed, I naturally want to come to pay my respects, and explain the reason by the way. Lu Ping'an said this, paused, and continued, "Since Elder Yu is Brother Situ's senior brother, he is naturally my friend of Lu, if Elder Yu is in need, Lu will serve himself!"
Yu Qiu shook his head: "I'm sorry, I can't fully trust Your Excellency yet!"
"If Lu's guess is right, your Yunjian Gate should be here for the Red Sword Cultivation Sword Tiger in Qingping Mountain in the east of Anyang City, right?" Lu Ping'an simply asked bluntly.
Before he came to the inn, he had already inquired in advance, and in the area of Qingping Mountain in Anyang City, there was a Heavenly Rank Demon Beast Red Sword Tiger that had recently appeared.
The Nanyue Sword Sect is also a well-known sect, if it is an ordinary thing, how can it be worth them to dispatch two elders at the same time?
When Yu Qiu heard this, he frowned and asked, "How do you know?"
"Guess!" After Lu Ping'an finished speaking, it was not equal to Qiu's opening, and he continued, "That red sword tiger is a treasure, the tiger skin is extremely hard, invulnerable, and the tiger bone and fangs are the materials for forging the heaven-level magic weapon, which is priceless. But I don't think you're here for this, your purpose must be to be a tiger's guts, right? I don't know who is so seriously injured in your faction?"
Yu Qiu saw that Lu Ping'an had seen through it, and it was not interesting to deny and conceal it.
Therefore, he said: "A disciple of our sect, he is very talented, and he is the beloved disciple of the master, but because he is in too much hurry to practice, he is so angry that he becomes a demon!"
"I see!" Lu Ping'an nodded.
In fact, he knew very well in his heart that Yu Qiu was not telling the truth.
As an elder of the Cloud Sword Sect, how could he risk hunting the Red Sword Tiger for the sake of a disciple?
Lu Ping'an hadn't heard anything about the head and elder of the Nanyue Sword Sect recently.
From this point of view, most of the people who really practice the martial arts are the Supreme Elder of the Nanyue Sword Sect, or the foundation of the Nanyue Sword Sect!
If he can help Yu Qiu get the tiger courage of the Red Sword Tiger, he will save the foundation of the Nanyue Sword Sect.
Not only can you gain their trust, but you can even make friends with the Nanyue Sword Sect.
Thinking of this, Lu Ping'an asked with a smile, "Elder Yu is still staying in Anyang City, presumably he hasn't found any trace of the Red Lian Sword Tiger, right?"
"Master Lu is also interested in the Red Sword Tiger?" asked Yu Qiu with a frown.
Lu Ping'an smiled and shook his head: "A gentleman doesn't take people's love, since the Red Sword Tiger is the first to be taken by Elder Yu, I naturally won't snatch it, I just want to help Elder Yu when I ask this!"
Yu Qiu was a little surprised: "Oh, Master Lu isn't joking with me, right?"
Lu Ping'an smiled and shook his head: "Don't hide it from Elder Yu, your innate perception ability is stronger than others, if Elder Yu can be trusted, I am willing to help you find this Red Sword Tiger!"
