Chapter 977: Sitting in the City of Sorrow
In the dragon boat, Qi Heng sat on a high dragon chair.
Lu Ping'an strode in, and Shi Li said, "Lu Ping'an sees Your Majesty!"
"Master Lu, you've worked hard these days, what reward do you want, official or money?"
Throughout the ages, which emperor does not want to be famous through the ages and admired by thousands of people.
However, such emperors are few and far after all.
The reason is very simple, because this is a world where the strong are respected, and the name of the emperor is simply insignificant compared to the world's top powerhouses.
Take Lu Ping'an and Qi Heng in the hall as examples.
In terms of status, Qi Heng, as the emperor and the king of a country, does not know how many times higher his status is than Lu Ping'an.
But in terms of reputation, he is not as loud as Lu Ping'an, the first day in the Eastern Continent, and not many people in the entire Eastern Continent remember him.
But from today, it's different.
He personally led the army of Dongyu Kingdom to attack the main altar of the Demon Sect and completely exterminate the Demon Sect, which must be passed down as a good story, and it is even worth capitalizing and close-up in the history books.
Lu Ping'an said: "Forget the reward, I just hope that Your Majesty can remember what he promised to go down before, and let go of the people who have been separated from the altar in the east!"
"Lu Gongzi rest assured, I will never break my word, as long as the people in the Eastern Altar change their ways, I will never embarrass them!" Qi Heng said with a smile.
Lu Ping'an was completely relieved and asked, "Your Majesty is coming to me at this time, I'm afraid it's not just to reward me, right?"
When Qi Heng heard this, he immediately frowned: "I guess you also know, the Demon Sect Leader has not been captured yet, I want to ask you, do you know where he is hiding?"
"He's not in the sect leader's mansion?" Lu Ping'an wondered.
Qi Heng shook his head and said, "I have already sent someone to carefully search the sect leader's mansion, but I haven't found his figure, could it be that we haven't paid attention and escaped from the main altar?"
Lu Ping'an shook his head: "The Demon Sect is his life's work, he will never give up like this, he should still be in the main altar!"
"Well, with Lu Gongzi's words, I am relieved. As long as he is still in the main altar of the Demon Sect, even if he digs three feet into the ground, I will find him!" Qi Heng swore a solemn oath.
Lu Ping'an thought for a while and said, "I think he may still be in the sect leader's mansion, so it's better to go to the sect master's mansion in person!"
"Okay!" Qi Heng slapped his thigh, "If you have Lu Gongzi's help, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!"
"Nothing else, I'll go first!"
"Wait!" Lu Ping'an was about to turn around and leave, but Qi Heng stopped him, "I heard that the strength of the Demon Sect's Deputy Sect Master and Dharma Protector is already the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm, and the Demon Sect Leader may have entered the Holy Spirit Realm, with Lu Gongzi's current strength, I am afraid that he will not be an opponent if he goes alone, I will send Gong Liangwen to assist you!"
Lu Ping'an wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, the deputy sect leader and the Dharma protector were deliberately hiding the realm, and the sect leader must be no exception.
If the Sect Master had really stepped into the Holy Spirit Realm, no matter how strong he was or how skilled his swordsmanship was, it would never be possible to cross the gap between the Great Realm.
Therefore, he thanked Qi Heng, and then took Gong Liangwen to leave the dragon boat treasure ship and head towards the sect leader's mansion.
On the way, Gong Liangwen asked, "Young Master Lu, how can you conclude that he is still in the sect leader's mansion?"
Lu Ping'an said: "There is no basis, it's just intuition!"
"There's something unclear below, I wonder if Gongzi Lu can answer a question or two for the next?" Gongliang Wen said with a solemn expression.
Lu Ping'an had already guessed what he wanted to ask, but pretended not to know and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The Demon Sect has done a lot of evil, and it should have been completely eradicated, I wonder why Lu Gongzi insisted on leaving the Eastern Altar? Could it be because Lu Gongzi had been in the Eastern Altar?
When Lu Ping'an heard this, his eyes lit up, and he asked rhetorically: "Did Your Majesty ask you to ask this, or did you want to ask it yourself?"
"I'm just a mere offering, not enough to represent Your Majesty, naturally I want to ask myself!" Gongliangwen replied with a frown.
Lu Ping'an said with a smile: "I have already explained this matter to Your Majesty, if Your Excellency is interested, you can go directly to Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty has mentioned this to me, but I find it a little unconvincing!" Gongliangwen said bluntly.
Lu Ping'an smiled and said: "I have already said what I should say, as for believe it or not, it is your business, and it has nothing to do with me!"
"I heard from the people of the Demon Sect that you have a close relationship with the young altar master of the eastern altar, I don't know if it's or not?"
"Mr. Gongliang, are you suspicious of Lu?" Lu Ping'an said unhappily.
"How dare you, I just think that if you don't ask some things clearly, if you cause any misunderstanding, it will not be good for everyone!" Gongliang Wen smiled.
Lu Ping'an did not shy away from it, and said: "Yes, I do have a good relationship with the young altar owner of the Eastern Altar, not only her, but I also have a good relationship with the people of the entire Eastern Altar." However, if you think that I let His Majesty let them go because of this, you are very wrong!"
"Oh, what's the reason? Can you please tell Lu Gongzi Ming?"
Lu Ping'an knew very well that Gongliangwen must have been instructed by Qi Heng when he said these words to him.
Since he wanted to know, he had nothing to hide, so he immediately told Gong Liangwen about the Blood Demon Sect and the Hidden Demon Sect.
"Based on this alone, you've decided to let go of the Eastern Altar?" Gong Liangwen continued.
"Of course, there is also their performance during this time!" Lu Ping'an said, and told Gongliangwen what he had seen with his own eyes during this time.
He knew very well that if he wanted to keep the people of the Eastern Altar for a long time, he had to dispel the doubts in Qi Heng's heart.
Although Qi Heng had promised himself in public, he would not be embarrassed by the people who split the altar in the east.
But no one knows how long his promise will last, and if one day he becomes suspicious, goes back on his word, and finds an excuse to deal with the people of the Eastern Altar, it will be more than worth the loss!
After listening to Lu Ping'an's words, Gongliangwen nodded: "If they are really willing to change their evil ways and return to the right, it will be a force for my righteous path, but it is just ......"
"It's just what?" Lu Ping'an asked with a frown.
Gongliang Wen said: "You have no jokes, since Your Majesty promised to let them go, naturally you will not regret it." But they have separated from the Demon Sect twice, which shows that their hearts are repeated, in case they ......"
"What exactly do you want to say?" Lu Ping'an asked bluntly.
Gongliang Wen said: "What I want to say is very simple, Your Majesty has promised to let them go, it is already benevolent and righteous, in order to prevent them from entering the devil's path again, they must be divided and conquered." ”
The implication is that they want to separate the people of the Eastern Altar and put them under the supervision of the imperial court.
If this is the case, even if Lu Ping'an can accept it, I am afraid that the people in the Eastern Altar will definitely not accept it.
Therefore, Lu Ping'an flatly refused: "I'm sorry, I can't accept such conditions!"
"I also hope that Lu Gongzi will put the common people in the world first!" Gong Liangwen persuaded.
Lu Ping'an shook his head: "Okay, you don't have to say it anymore, I will tell Your Majesty about this matter in person, or concentrate on the current matter!"
"I still hope you can think about this matter carefully, after all, they are from the Demon Sect, and their hands are covered in blood!" Gongliang said gently.
Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "Your Excellency has reached this realm, aren't your hands covered with blood?"
"This ......," Gong Liangwen was speechless for a while.
Lu Ping'an said: "Okay, there is no need to talk about this matter, let's find the Demon Sect Leader first!"
With that, he used the system's detection ability to begin to check the situation in the sect leader's mansion.
I have to say that the detection ability of the system is indeed quite strong, Qi Heng's subordinates searched for a long time, but they didn't find a problem, and Lu Ping'an saw the clue at once.
Gongliang Wen saw Lu Ping'an frowning and asked, "Did Lu Gongzi find anything?"
Lu Ping'an nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a secret passage under the Sect Master's Mansion!"
"Oh, how do you know?" Gong Liangwen was a little surprised, because he didn't sense anything wrong.
Lu Ping'an reluctantly explained: "I am born with a stronger perception ability than others!"
Gong Liangwen did not doubt that ordinary people still have something extraordinary, let alone a genius like Lu Ping'an who entered the ninefold transcendent realm at a young age?
Thundered!
Gongliang Wen was about to ask Lu Ping'an how to enter the secret passage.
Suddenly, the earth began to tremble violently, and the sky quickly darkened.
"What the hell is going on?Is it you guys?" Lu Ping'an looked up at the crack in the sky that was gradually closing, and asked suspiciously.
Gongliangwen shook his head: "I don't know exactly what's going on, but I can tell you with certainty that this was definitely not done by His Majesty, maybe it was the Demon Sect Master!"
"If that's the case, then it's a big trouble!" Lu Ping'an said with a frown.
Gongliang asked puzzledly, "Could it be that Gongzi Lu has already guessed the intention of the Demon Sect Master?"
"If this is really what he did, then it is not difficult to guess his purpose, I am afraid that he wants to trap all of us here in this small world!" Lu Ping'an said the guess in his heart.
Hearing this, Gongliang Wen nodded: "Yes, what Lu Gongzi said is very true, now the Heaven Breaker is in the small world, and it can no longer destroy the small world, once he succeeds, I'm afraid we will all have to stay here and wait for death." No, you must inform Your Majesty as soon as possible, and make preparations as soon as possible!"
"Inform him with the sound transmission stone, but I think it's already this time, and even if he knows about it, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do. The only chance now is to find the sect leader and stop him from repairing the small world!" Lu Ping'an said.
"This is not unreasonable, just follow what Lu Gongzi said!" Gong Liangwen said, then took out the sound transmission stone and played what Lu Ping'an had just said.
Qi Heng said: "I also guessed this, as Lu Gongzi said, now we can't contact the outside world. For now, the only way to do this is to find the Sect Master and get rid of him as soon as possible to stop him from continuing to cast spells!"
"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Gongliang said respectfully.
After ending the conversation with Qi Heng, Gongliang Wen asked Lu Ping'an: "Where is the secret path that Lu Gongzi just said?"
Lu Ping'an said: "It's at your feet!"
