1974. Compromise or Cooperation?
Dongfang Xiong and the elders all nodded after hearing Wu Di's words, obviously this is consistent with the news brought back by Elder Madrigal, it seems that this kid has actually had a great adventure, and they also know some of the stories behind the Eight Great Families, that legend established the Eight Great Families and the people of the Xiuzhen Realm once laid a game in the Death Forest.
Their plan for thousands of years was to find out the treasure left by this legendary man in the Forest of Death, and now it seems that this treasure was obtained by Wu Di, and it was even allowed to be promoted to the realm stage, eradicating their detailed understanding, Wu Di didn't even have the strength of the peak of the Transformation Realm before he disappeared, but now he is above all the recognitions in the Xiuzhen Realm, which is really a good luck that makes people blush and admire.
Wu Di saw everyone's faces, and knew their inner thoughts, he just wanted this effect, weakening his strength and influence can bring them the effect of despising themselves, and then the lion opened his mouth, and finally he played a hole card, so that the other party could only cooperate with himself when he was caught off guard.
"I also heard that you can help people advance to the realm stage, is there such a thing?" Dongfang Xiong then asked, this was the question he was most concerned about, and the other elders obviously also came to the spirit, this was obviously also their concern, they stared at Wu Di, obviously waiting for his answer.
Wu Di felt everyone's substantial gaze, nodded slightly, and then heard a breathing sound, obviously everyone was very excited about the news, "But!" Wu Di suddenly said: "Although I can help people advance to the realm, this will be detrimental to my cultivation, I will only help people advance according to the method of inheritance now." ”
Wu Di showed a look of embarrassment, and Dongfang Xiong and the others also looked at each other after hearing these words, obviously they hadn't heard this question before, and now they were a little surprised to hear Wu Di mention it, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it was inevitable, if Wu Di could really improve the cultivator to the realm stage without a price, then wouldn't he be invincible in the world?
Originally, he wanted Wu Di to help Dongfang Jia train two realm-level masters, but if this was really detrimental to Wu Di's cultivation, how could he speak? Could he still let him sacrifice himself for the benefit of the Dongfang family? This was obviously very unreasonable, he couldn't open his mouth anyway.
But Dongfang Feilong suddenly said: "Enemy Wu, at that time in the sealing space, didn't you help those native lords all advance to the realm?" His voice was full of doubts, obviously suspecting that Enemy Wu was waiting for the price to sell, and did not want to help the revival of the Dongfang family, which was unacceptable to him, although he had a good impression of Enemy Wu, it did not mean that he would give up his position.
Dongfang Feilong's words made everyone suspicious again, and they obviously began to doubt Wu Di's words, and Wu Di sighed and said: "At that time, I was also forced to do so, I originally thought that as long as I helped them advance to the realm, the danger in the future could be lifted, but I didn't expect my sacrifice to be in vain, which also led to my complete disadvantage at the beginning of the later battle against Asura Yue!"
Wu Di's words made all the elders look at each other, they still didn't know much about what was going on, they didn't know who the indigenous lord and Asura Yue were, so Dongfang Xiong called Dongfang Feilong aside and asked him to carefully explain the scene he saw, and then judge whether Wu Di had ulterior motives.
And the eyes of the others looking at Wu Di also began to change, obviously doubting him, but Wu Di was not moved at all, the initiative is now in his hands, he can say whatever he wants, even if the two sides tear their faces, he will just end up with a bad reputation, he can hold on for so long, in fact, it is completely for this reputation.
He does have the ability to sweep the entire cultivation realm with the organ city, but what he gets is just a fragmented territory, which is far from his interests, he wants a complete cultivation realm, and the elites of the eight major families, including the patriarchs and elders, must be in his hands, this is the strength he lacks the most now, and it is also the team that can quickly accumulate strength.
At this time, Dongfang Bailu shouted loudly: "Grandpa, I want to marry Brother Wu Di!" Her words made everyone present suddenly dumbfounded, and the original solemn and serious scene suddenly seemed to be sealed, and everyone maintained a posture, that is, looking at Bai Lu and Wu Di with strange eyes.
And Wu Di himself didn't expect Bai Lu, a crazy girl, to suddenly say such a sentence on such an occasion. Dongfang Xiong was the first to react, because she was not only Bai Lu's grandfather, but also the patriarch of the Dongfang family, he frowned, and shouted: "Nonsense! Do you know what you're talking about? Your relationship with the Ono family has already been decided! Someone, take Bai Lu down for me and put her in a confinement room." ”
At this time, two burly disciples in plain clothes walked in from outside, and when they walked to Wu Di's side, they were about to pull Bai Lu, but Bai Lu grabbed Wu Di's arm tightly and shouted loudly: "I don't want it, I already have a skin-to-skin relationship with Wu Di's brother, and I can't marry someone else!"
Her shout made the faces of the elders immediately turn the color of pig liver, and they stared at Wu Di viciously, as if they were about to eat him, and one of his outer disciples of the Dongfang family actually did such a thing to the granddaughter of the patriarch? Who did he think he was? According to the rules of the door, he would cut off his legs, gouge out his eyeballs, and then expel him from the family.
But the matter is that Wu Di is now the most critical part of their family's revival, not to mention that he has made great contributions this time, but with his cultivation, if he resists, I am afraid that the people of the entire Dongfang family will not be able to hurt him, but will let him go out of the Dongfang family.
Dongfang Xiong stared at Wu Di and said, "Boy, can you explain what's going on?" His tone was already a little cold, because Bai Lu was his most beloved granddaughter, and now she was a key figure in a stable relationship with the Ono family, how could something happen at this time?
But he thought about it again, if he could really tie up Wu Di by sacrificing a Bai Lu, then this business seemed to be very worthwhile, and he had been worried about the fact that Wu Di was not a disciple of the Dongfang family, for fear that he would leave the Dongfang family if he was recruited by other families.
And letting Bai Lu marry into the Ono family is also a forced choice, but if Wu Di can really work for the Dongfang family wholeheartedly, maybe Bai Lu will be happy at the same time, and the revival plan of the Dongfang family will also succeed, should he compromise or choose to cooperate?
