Chapter Ninety-Six: Proceedings of the Annexes (2)

Zhongli had already entered the hall, and after hearing the voice, he began to look at the people in the room.

The hunchbacked old man of the Lu family sat at the top of the hall, and there were four seats on the left and right below, and seven of them were already seated on them.

With the addition of Lu Chen, the hall was filled with nine people.

When the head of the Lu family heard someone questioning Lu Chen, he also cast a questioning glance at Lu Chen.

There has never been a precedent for outsiders to participate in the deliberations of the Lu family, and he didn't know in advance that Lu Chen would invite Zhongli to come.

In fact, Lu Chen didn't expect Zhongli to come suddenly, he just asked his subordinates to go to the inn to wait, and when he saw that the room prepared for Zhongli was full of people, he would let his subordinates bring it back.

Lu Chen has been a little busy these days, and he even forgot that today is the day when Zhongli came out of the small secret realm.

The reason is naturally because Su Yuan was attacked and destroyed.

Lu Chen's plan worked, the Heng Dao Sect had already joined forces with the Biyun Sect to make a move against Su Luo, and at this time, the meeting was to discuss the future direction of the Lu family.

Although Lu Chen was surprised by Zhongli's arrival, his mentality changed very quickly, and Zhongli, as one of the most important members of his plan, naturally would not slack off, so he got up and invited Zhongli to participate in the family meeting.

Seeing his father's puzzled gaze, Lu Chen didn't hint at anything, as if he hadn't seen it.

But that's enough, after all, father and son are connected, no hint is the best hint, and the head of the Lu family instantly understood its meaning.

"As the future head of the Lu family, doesn't my son even have the right to invite someone to participate in the discussion?" said the head of the Lu family in a deep voice, responding to the questioner.

"What are you kidding, this time our Lu family council is related to the survival of my Lu family, the future and brightness, how can outsiders participate!" A person on the left side of the hall retorted angrily, slamming the table and standing up.

Listening to his voice, it was the same person who questioned Lu Chen before.

"That's right, what the Second Elder said is right, how can outsiders be involved in this kind of thing. Besides, when will Lu Chen become the future head of my Lu family? The family elder has never said this!" One of them stood up and echoed, also looking dissatisfied.

"Second Elder, Third Elder. You must be too anxious, no matter what, listen to Lu Chen's explanation!" A gray old man stood up, waved his hand again and again, and motioned for the two to sit down and talk.

It turned out that the person who had been questioning Lu Chen was the second elder of the Lu family, and it was the third elder of the Lu family who echoed the second elder.

Zhongli couldn't help but look at them with scrutiny when he saw them arguing. The four positions on the left side of the hall were all looking at him with angry and unkind eyes.

The other three elders of the Lu family on the right, although they were also puzzled and puzzled, did not show hostile eyes.

Zhongli guessed that the four elders of the Lu family on the left side of the hall should be the people of the Lu family that Lu Chen had mentioned to him before, and they had always been hostile to the position of the head of the Lu family, and they had always been hostile to Lu Chen, so they were naturally hostile to the people brought by Lu Chen.

And the three on the right should be the people of the Lu family's main line, naturally they have always supported the Lu family's head and supported Lu Chen.

Although Zhongli guessed their relationship, the internal struggle of the Lu family had nothing to do with him, he didn't want to get involved in the Lu family's family affairs, and he also looked at Lu Chen with questioning eyes, and when he explained, he didn't know why Lu Chen let himself get involved in this dispute.

Lu Chen saw that everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to explain, but he was not in a hurry.

Instead, he waited for the maid to serve new tea, and after arranging Zhongli to sit in his original seat, he was ready to speak.

I have to say that Lu Chen's hospitality is indeed very popular, and Zhongli is also a little flattered.

Although he was a little embarrassed to occupy Lu Chen's position, it was not easy to shirk at the moment, and it seemed to be raw, which would embarrass Lu Chen, so he sat down.

Lu Yuanping, the head of the Lu family, saw his son Lu Chen's unhurried appearance, and everyone was already impatient, so he quickly coughed and said, "Okay, Chen'er, everyone is waiting for your explanation." ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen nodded and walked to the center of the hall, with his back to his father Lu Yuanping, and looked around at the elders left and right.

"Uncles, let's continue with the topic we just talked about. Do you have any questions or objections to the plan I proposed?" Lu Chen first threw out a question.

"We want to listen to you explain first, who is this guest you invited, and what are you mentioning now!" The second elder of the Lu family interrupted Lu Chen's words with a frown, very dissatisfied.

"Lu Chen, your vision is indeed long-term and macroscopic, and your plan is impeccable and quite feasible. But the Second Elder's question, you have to answer it first!" said the Lu Family Elder with a smile.

He first answered Lu Chen's question, and then reminded Lu Chen, first explaining Zhongli's identity and inviting him to come, so as to avoid everyone quarreling again.

Lu Chen looked at the Great Elder of the Lu Family and smiled, signaling not to worry, and then looked at the Second Elder of the Lu Family and explained.

"Second Elder, since everyone has no opinions, I think my Lu Chen's plan is feasible. Then the next step is naturally to consider the employment of people in the whole plan, which is what I meant by inviting Brother Zhongli to come. The Lu family smiled.

After Lu Chen finished speaking, without waiting for everyone to speak, he continued: "Now that Su Yuan has been destroyed, Su Luo and his junior sister Bei Xiaoling are even more unknown in life and death, and their future is unknown. Anyone with a slight IQ can guess who did it. ”

"Su Luo and his junior sister Bei Xiaoling are the hope for the rise of the entire Divine Sword Sect, if the two of them die, then the entire Divine Sword will go crazy. The war between the three sects is imminent, and Yanji City will naturally take care of it, so as not to let the order of this Fengzhou land fall into chaos. ”

"But unfortunately, the demon cultivator who had disappeared for tens of thousands of years in the land of Fengzhou was born again, compared to the threat of the three sects of melee and the demon cultivator who killed the world's cultivators, Yanji City naturally gave priority to eradicating the demon cultivator. Although Yanji City has a transcendent status, the number of people is far inferior to the three sects, and most of the manpower of Yanji City will be transferred to deal with demon cultivators, so naturally they have no energy to take care of the affairs of the three sects. ”

"The Divine Sword Sect that has lost its mind will no longer obey the orders of Yanji City, after all, the life of your monks in the world is fate, isn't the life of the two goddesses of my Divine Sword Sect fate? After some time, it will also lead to the darkest era in Fengzhou in 10,000 years!"

"If the three sects hadn't started a war, wouldn't all of you have become a pipe dream?" the second elder of the Lu family interrupted Lu Chen's words again.

He didn't mention Zhongli again at the moment, as if he had forgotten about him as a person, obviously Lu Chen's plan made everyone in the Lu family see a grand future, and their minds were all on this plan at this time.

Lu Chen smiled slightly, did not speak, but took out a crystal ball from his arms.

It seemed to everyone that it was a spiritual weapon used by monks to record what happened in a short period of time, and this kind of crystal ball was often used to record some major battles, or the moment when the mighty person practiced spiritual techniques.

When Zhongli heard that Su Yuan was destroyed and Su Luo and Bei Xiaoling's life and death were unknown, he was already in his heart, but he could still hold back and didn't ask. But seeing Lu Chen projecting the content recorded in the crystal ball, and seeing that Su Yuan was attacked in the middle of the night that day, and when the tragic battle took place, his breathing became short, and he didn't know why, at this moment, he seemed to be a little worried about the safety of Su Luo and Bei Xiaoling.

Zhongli also saw that in the projection, there was a 'Lu Chen' who died. Zhongli understood that this must be a stand-in found by Lu Chen.

After the content recorded by the crystal ball was played, Lu Chen said with a strange smile.

"I have made no less than 100 copies of the crystal ball that recorded this battle, and it has been widely spread in the land of Toyosu. You said that when the people of the Divine Sword Sect saw the Sect Master of the Heng Dao Sect personally attacking Su Yuan, could they still swallow this breath?"

"How can they endure this kind of humiliation, if they don't start a war with the Heng Dao Sect, who will dare to worship the Divine Sword Sect in the future? The monks of the world, who will still take the Divine Sword Sect into their eyes! If the Divine Sword Sect does not fight, it will also completely collapse internally! What is there to fear from a Divine Sword Sect that has lost its fighting spirit?"

"The Divine Sword Sect wants to take revenge, how can Yanji City take care of it? Deal with the Sect Master of the Heng Dao Sect? How can the people of the Heng Dao Sect let their own Sect Master be killed by the Yan Ji City? If this is the case, Fengzhou will only be in chaos faster!"

"Su Yuan has fallen, and the Biyun Sect has also been involved, and the two sects have long been tied to a warship. If the Biyun Sect wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, the Hengdao Sect would not allow it, and it would never be possible to wait until the strength of the family fighting with the Divine Sword Sect plummeted, so that the Biyun Sect would dominate in the future. ”

"Heng Dao Sect has also taken revenge on my Lu family for the use of spirit stones, after all, I, Lu Chen, are already 'dead'! ”

"If the Divine Sword Sect asks my Lu family for support, we can directly refuse. The reason is that our Lu family is not strong, we dare not offend any of the three sects, and the Divine Sword Sect can't force it, the Heng Dao Sect has already killed my 'Lu Chen', to avoid the financial support of our Lu family, we will definitely not take the initiative to provoke again. ”

"Of course, for the sake of safety, in order to prevent the three dogs from jumping over the wall in a hurry and forcing our Lu family to fall to either side, in addition to secretly developing forces, our Lu family must also fully cooperate with Yanji City to capture the demon cultivator, and return a peace in Fengzhou, so that we can completely withdraw from this turmoil!"

"If the three sects start a war, Yanji City will turn a blind eye. However, our Lu family is actively cooperating with Yanji City to capture the demon cultivator, if the three sects dare to make a move against my Lu family at this time, Yanji City will definitely not let it go. ”

"There can be a legitimate reason for the three sects to start a war, but no matter who wins or loses afterwards, they will be disgusted by Yanji City. And my Lu family is cooperating with Yanji City during this period, if you want to rise afterwards, how can Yanji City not support it?"

Speaking of this, Lu Chen paused, revealing a sad face, which made all the elders of the Lu family who were a little excited when they heard the plan not understand.
