Chapter 985: Shadow Demon Appears
The next day, Lin Chulan and Zhou Afu went to Yunjianmen early to participate in the entrance assessment.
Lu Ping'an was also fine, so he came to the return house alone.
Because the young talents of Fengjian City all went to participate in the entrance assessment of Cloud Sword Gate, they returned a lot more deserted at this moment.
He sat in the private room, drinking wine while looking at the Nine Peaks of the Cloud Sword Gate through the window.
He was drinking with relish when he heard a commotion outside the door.
"No matter who is in the No. 1 private room of Tianzi, they will kick me out, do you understand?"
The shopkeeper persuaded with good words: "Guest officer, the guest of this Tianzi No. 1 private room is one of my distinguished guests, he doesn't like others to disturb, why don't you go to Dizi No. 1 room?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't care who lives in your room, you can get me out within half a cup of tea, otherwise I'm not welcome!"
Lu Ping'an opened the door of the private room and asked, "Shopkeeper, what's going on?"
Before the shopkeeper could speak, the middle-aged man who was followed by more than a dozen subordinates asked coldly: "Is it that you occupy the No. 1 private room of Tianzi?
Lu Ping'an's face did not change, and asked, "Don't you know the truth that your Excellency comes first and then comes?"
"What kind of thing are you, and you deserve to reason with me!" The middle-aged man's eyes were cold, as if he was about to make a move with Lu Ping'an at any time.
Lu Ping'an had already sensed it, and the other party was at best an extraordinary strength.
Several of his subordinates have a slightly higher realm.
But it's not much higher, and the strongest one is just the fourfold peak of the transcendent realm.
To deal with these people, for Lu Ping'an, it is just a matter of effort.
However, he didn't bother to do anything, so as not to damage the things in the return residence, and said: "Since you like the Tianzi No. 1 private room, then let it be given to you!"
"Hmph, count you as acquaintances!" the middle-aged man said, pushed Lu Ping'an away, and strode into the private room.
The shopkeeper of the returning house asked Xiao Er to help clean up the private room, and said to Lu Ping'an: "I'm sorry Lu Gongzi, I disturbed your Yaxing!"
Lu Ping'an smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a change box, it's not a big deal!"
The shopkeeper was deeply impressed by Lu Ping'an's generosity, and quickly made a gesture of please, and said respectfully: "Then you are here, please!"
Lu Ping'an nodded, and followed the shopkeeper to the No. 1 private room.
I have to say that there is indeed a big difference between these two private rooms, the Tianzi No. 1 window is facing the Jiufeng of Yunjian Gate, while the No. 1 room of Dizi is completely invisible to Yunjian Gate, and there is a bustling street outside the window.
After Lu Ping'an sat down by the window, he asked, "Shopkeeper, the person who came to your store to make trouble yesterday was the same person just now, right?"
"Exactly, he insisted on the No. 1 private room and injured two guys in our store!" said the shopkeeper.
Lu Ping'an frowned and asked, "Do you know where they came from?"
"I know, his name is Lao Liangdong, a relative of the county guard of Dingyuan County, a native of Wu'an City next door, who is rampant and domineering on weekdays, and is a famous bully in Dingyuan County!" replied the shopkeeper.
Lu Ping'an nodded, and asked again, "What is he doing here?"
"I heard that he sent his son to participate in the entrance assessment of the Cloud Sword Gate, if he let his son enter the Cloud Sword Gate, I am afraid he will be even more lawless in Dingyuan County!" the shopkeeper couldn't help but sigh as he spoke.
Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "If you want to enter the Cloud Sword Gate, it's not that easy!"
"That's right, every time the Cloud Sword Gate enters the entrance assessment, there are tens of thousands of people who participate, but there are only a few dozen people who can really enter the Cloud Sword Gate," the shopkeeper agreed.
Lu Ping'an nodded and didn't say anything more.
But while the two of them were talking, a middle-aged man in a gray cloth shirt pushed open the door of the private room of Tianzi No. 1.
Whew......
Seeing this, Lao Liangdong's subordinates hurriedly stepped forward and blocked in front of the gray-clothed middle-aged man.
He snorted coldly: "Things that don't have long eyes, don't you want to live, do you?
The gray-clothed middle-aged man asked expressionlessly, "Where are the people who were here before?"
When he said this, he was obviously asking about Lu Ping'an's whereabouts.
Lao Liangdong waved his hand, motioned his subordinates to retreat, and said unknowingly: "The person you are looking for has been killed by me!"
The gray-clothed middle-aged man looked at him: "Just a few of you?"
When Lao Liangdong heard this, he was so angry that his eyes crooked and his mouth slanted: "Bastard, clean your mouth for me, and then talk nonsense, believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart?"
"Look for death!"
The gray-clothed middle-aged man let out a cold sound, turned into a gray light, instantly took the life of Lao Liangdong's men, and pinched Lao Liangdong's neck.
Lao Liangdong was so frightened that he begged for mercy again and again.
But the gray-clothed middle-aged man didn't pay attention to it, and just asked coldly, "Where is Lu Ping'an?"
Lao Liangdong knew that Lu Ping'an, who was middle-aged in gray, was the person who was sitting in the private room of Tianzi No. 1 just now.
He didn't want to die at the hands of the gray-clothed middle-aged man, so he hurriedly said with difficulty: "It's next door, in the No. 1 room of the word land!"
Click!
As soon as the words fell, the gray-clothed middle-aged man pinched Lao Liangdong's neck and threw the body aside with a bang.
Then, he walked straight towards the No. 1 room where Lu Ping'an was.
Squeak!
Lu Ping'an was eating defenselessly, when suddenly the door was pushed open.
Then a middle-aged man dressed in gray strode in and sat opposite Lu Ping'an.
Lu Ping'an asked, "Your Excellency?"
"Duan Tianzuo!" replied the gray-clothed middle-aged man.
Lu Ping'an had clearly felt from the other party's breath at this moment that the other party was a powerhouse in the Holy Spirit Realm.
With his current strength, he is simply not enough to fight against it.
So he frowned and asked, "Something?"
"You owe me a debt!" Duan Tianzuo replied coldly.
Lu Ping'an saw that Duan Tianzuo's body was faintly filled with a demonic aura, and roughly guessed that he should be the remnant of the Demon Sect.
He never dreamed that there really was a shadow demon, and he would come to the door so quickly.
"How are you going to collect this debt?" Lu Ping'an asked pretending to be calm.
Duan Tianzuo said: "Then it depends on how you want to pay it back!"
When Lu Ping'an heard this, he immediately understood that he came to him this time, not to ask for his own life, but to negotiate terms with himself.
In this way, there may be a glimmer of life for yourself: "How do you want me to pay it back?"
"Release people out of me, don't blame the past, otherwise, die!" Duan Tianzuo said succinctly.
The people he wanted Lu Ping'an to release were naturally those who had been arrested by the Demon Sect.
Lu Ping'an smiled: "You should know that those people are not in my hands at all, I just want to let them go, and there is nothing I can do!"
"In this way, you don't want to!" Duan Tianzuo's face was gloomy.
Lu Ping'an shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't do anything." Whose hands those people are now, you must also know, do you think he will let those people go because of me?"
Duan Tianzuo said: "Since this is the case, then don't blame me for being rude!"
After that, he was going to do something to Lu Ping'an.
Airplanes!
Suddenly, a powerful coercion pressed towards the return residence.
Obviously, there is a strong person in the Holy Spirit Realm who is approaching this side.
Moreover, this strong man already knew that Lu Ping'an was in danger, so he deliberately released coercion to protect Lu Ping'an.
Judging from Duan Tianzuo's face, that person's strength should be above him.
Lu Ping'an's heart was steady, and he said with a smile: "I guess, you don't have the ability to get rid of me before he arrives, right?"
"You wait for me!"
As soon as Duan Tianzuo said that, he turned into a cloud of black mist and disappeared in front of Lu Ping'an.
After a few breaths, Yan Zhengtao, the peak master of the Bamboo Peak of the Cloud Sword Gate, strode in and said to Lu Ping'an: "It seems that I came at the wrong time!"
Lu Ping'an said with a smile: "If it weren't for Lord Yan Feng arriving in time, I'm afraid I would have died in Huangquan by now!"
"Demon Sect remnants?" Yan Zhengtao asked.
Lu Ping'an nodded: "Yes, you want to threaten me to help him rescue the people who were arrested by the Demon Sect!"
Yan Zhengtao asked, "I heard that you plan to lead the disciples of the Demon Sect to establish a new sect, but is there such a thing?"
"Yes, before Qi Heng attacked the Demon Sect, they had already reformed their ways and drawn a clear line with the Demon Sect, they should be given a chance!" Lu Ping'an explained.
Yan Zhengtao persuaded: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change, I advise you to think about it carefully." Now that you have been targeted by the remnants of the Demon Sect, why don't you go back to the Cloud Sword Gate with me and think about it!"
Lu Ping'an knew that Yan Zhengtao was worried that he was deeply influenced by the Demon Sect and had lost his heart: "I'm sorry Lord Yan Feng, there are some things I have to do, let's talk about it later!"
"If that's the case, I'll discuss with the head and the major elders as soon as possible and officially expel you from the sect!" Yan Zhengtao said.
This sound a bit threatening, as if he was saying to Lu Ping'an, if he didn't go back to the Cloud Sword Gate now, he would never think about going back to the Cloud Sword Gate.
Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "I helped the world to the righteous path and eradicate the Demon Sect, but what I got was this kind of treatment?"
"You assist the Demon Sect disciples and participate in the Cloud Sword Sect entrance assessment, which is enough to expel you from the sect!" Yan Zhengtao said solemnly.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Yan!" Lu Ping'an knew that since he already knew about this matter, he did not make a move against Lin Chulan, obviously acquiescing to this matter.
Yan Zhengtao said: "I just want to see if she can change her evil and return to the right!"
"Senior Brother Yan might as well make a bet, how about it?" Lu Ping'an said with a smile.
Yan Zhengtao smiled and said: "If there is a teacher, there must be an apprentice, this is really reasonable." Only an unreliable master like him can teach an unruly disciple like you!"
Lu Ping'an knew that Yan Zhengtao had always complained about his master.
But these are all things in the past, and he doesn't want Yan Zhengtao to be trapped in the past all the time, so he picked up his wine glass and persuaded: "Senior Brother Yan, drink!"
Yan Zhengtao didn't raise his glass, but said with a straight face: "Cloud Sword Gate, you should ban alcohol!"
