Chapter 204: The Battlefield
The second floor of the Jade Pavilion
The room is airtight, the doors and windows are tightly closed, the candlelight inside is dim, and the sound of rain outside can be faintly heard.
"What does this mean?"
Lu Wan looked at the table in front of him, although he had questions, there was no doubt on his face, but there was a hint of relief, as if he had finally unloaded some burden in his heart.
On the wooden table was a small wooden box, the lid of the sandalwood box was opened, and inside was a thumb-sized pill, which showed a strange blood red color in the dim light.
"Heart Eater Pill, don't worry, although it is a Heart Eater, there will be no pain after taking it"
There was a person standing in the shadow of the room, the figure was dressed in a red robe, even the hair was slightly red, and the whole person was like a silent flame burning in the dark, it was Lou Xiao.
"I am willing to surrender to my lord, as long as my lord needs it, even my Lu family's Nine Palace City can be dedicated to my lord" Lu Wanjian's eyes were firmly fixed on the building in the dark.
Jiugong City is one of the eighteen big cities in Bingyang Mansion, ranking higher than Beining City.
Lou Xiao was silent for a moment, and then said slowly
"Actually, the adult didn't plan to kill you at first, you know, the adult is not a person who loves to kill, after these few turmoil, the master of the Bingyang Mansion almost died more than half, the adult's original plan was to take it over smoothly, the adult has broken through the holy realm, the previous grievances are not worth mentioning to him at all, no matter what our family thinks, it doesn't matter to the adult, just like when the old pavilion master is still there, the adult is enough to suppress the entire Bingyang Mansion, and the adult is also a Bingyang person, and the Bingyang Mansion can no longer withstand the big turmoil”
Lou Xiao's voice was low, and he looked at the white-robed old man opposite with complicated eyes
"In the battle in the pavilion not long ago, your blood alliance was also desperately guarding, although you didn't know that it was the adult who was breaking through, but this matter, the adult remembered it"
"Then why do you have to do this, my Lu family ......" The white-robed old man stood up abruptly and looked at Lou Xiao in the dark with an excited expression
"It used to be possible, but now it can't" Before Lu Wanjian finished speaking, Lou Xiao interrupted his words
"Why, why not now"
The old man's voice trembled, as if he suppressed his anger, and his face showed a trace of abnormal flushing, he was like a drowning traveler, staring at the building opposite.
Obviously there is hope, why not now?
"Because the general pavilion rejected the adult's proposal and sent a new pavilion master down," Lou Xiao's voice suddenly sank
"Send a new pavilion master down!" Lu Wanjian's eyes lit up at first, and then his face quickly turned white, and the light in his eyes finally dimmed completely
"So I'm going to die?" Lu Wanjian laughed miserably, and sat back in his chair in a dejected manner, his whole body leaning back on the chair, as if he had been drained of his spirit in an instant.
"That's right, only when you die, the Blood Alliance will collapse, and the adults can quickly integrate the power of the Ice Ocean Mansion" Lou Xiao didn't hide anything, but instead revealed the Flame Alliance's almost and discerningly.
"You actually want to fight against the new pavilion master? There is no chance of winning, how can a mere Bingyang branch resist the will of the general pavilion," Lu Wanjian laughed miserably
"Bingyang Mansion is the Bingyang Mansion of my Bingyang people, we don't need an outsider" Lou Xiao's expression became hideous
"Instead of waiting for the new pavilion master to slaughter at will, it is better to take advantage of the situation, besides, even the adults have decided to make a move, what is there to be afraid of our little family, my Lou Xiao is dead, and I have to tear a piece of meat from these outsiders, my Bingyang Mansion is not a fat meat that anyone can take a bite of"
Lu Wanjian leaned back in his chair, his expression was blank, he didn't know what he was thinking, Lou Xiao stopped talking, and the room was quiet again
"Song Guan, is he already dead" After a long time, Lu Wanjian finally spoke again
"Yes, before the adult broke through, he had already died at the hands of the adult," Lou Xiao said calmly
"Sure enough" Lu Wanjian didn't have the slightest surprise on his face, as if he had already guessed it, and the room fell silent again.
The night was dark, and the lights on the candlesticks burned quietly, and from time to time a small light flower jumped out, making a crackling sound.
"After I die, what will happen to the Lu family" After a long time, Lu Wanjian finally spoke out again
"The Lu family will still own half of the Nine Palace City, and other things will be written off, whether it is an adult or the Flame Alliance, they will not trouble the Lu family again," Lou Xiao said softly.
Lu Wanjian glanced at the red pill on the table, and his body suddenly sat up
"Let me go to the Mirror Lake Yindi, I'm going to die on the battlefield"
Lu Wanjian's body suddenly straightened, and the whole person was like a sharp sword out of its sheath, exuding a powerful momentum, which was the powerful martial will of the Transfiguration Realm martial artist, and it was also the last pride of the Transfiguration Realm martial artist.
The Yin Land of Jinghu is the last Yin Land of Bingyang Mansion, after Ziyang Xi and the others exterminated the two Yin Lands, I don't know what they found, everyone rushed to Huanglong Daze, and then Qi Qi fell there
Lou Xiao looked at Lu Wanjian with a complicated expression, and he suddenly thought that if he was facing such a situation, maybe he would make the same choice, there was no way to retreat, it was already good to be able to keep the family, and he couldn't hope for anything more
"No need, you will appear there after you die, Hei Yuan raided Fushan City, in order to protect the 50,000 people of Fushan City, you fought with the ghosts of Jinghu to the death, and the adults will also help the Lu family protect half of the Nine Palace City because of this merit" Lou Xiao said silently
"Good"
The momentum on Lu Wanjian's body declined suddenly, and I don't know how long it took, he finally slowly spit out a word, and his voice was extremely calm, without the slightest wave.
He grabbed the pill on the table, first poured a large sip of wine, the wine left down the corner of his mouth, wetting the white robe on his chest, he pinched the pill, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
Soon, Lu Wanjian fell on the table, his face was bleeding, his eyes were wide open, looking at the darkness ahead, as if he was looking at something.
Lou Xiao sighed softly, closed his eyes, and strode towards the door
"Adults don't break their promises"
Silence returned to the room again, and the famous shape-shifting master of Bingyang Mansion and the second-ranked elder of the Blood Alliance, Lu Wanjian, died.
............
Shangling City is located in the middle of Bingyang Mansion, and the water of the Nanling River flows through the city, and then flows downstream to Beining City, and finally joins the ice ocean in the extreme north.
The heavy rain continued for several days, and the rain continued into late yesterday night, and only stopped this morning.
There were pale gray clouds wafting in the sky, and the icy air passed through the city, with a steep chill, and the cold of spring was like a horse gun, and the pedestrians on the street were wearing thick cotton jackets.
The city was wet everywhere, the white walls of the high-rise buildings in the courtyard were stained with black moss, and the bluestone slabs on the small streets were also showing a cold gray.
It has been raining for days, the pedestrians on the street are sparse, the banner in front of the restaurant is wet with rain and hangs down, the fat shopkeeper is dozing off the counter, and there is some depression everywhere in the city.
The southeast of Shangling City is Qingyuan Fang, but there is only one mansion and one family in the entire huge Fang City, and the Yuan family has dominated Shangling City for decades, and they are the only ones who have such domineering.
At this time, the carriage outside Qingyuanfang was endless, but the railing of the carriage was tied with black silk cloth, and the surroundings were extremely quiet, looking a little solemn and solemn.
"President of Shangling Chamber of Commerce, Li Anlin to ......"
"Elder of the Desert Iron Knife Line, Shen Guizhen has arrived in ......"
In front of the mansion, the sound of the small servant's registration was constantly heard, and the voice was low and solemn, constantly echoing in the sky above the huge mansion
The carriage stopped, and a wealthy man in a dark silk robe stepped out of the carriage, and if anyone was familiar with Shangling City, they would find that these people were all leaders of various industries in the city.
These people looked at the huge mansion in front of them, no matter what they thought in their hearts, and their faces were solemn and heavy.
There is a white silk on the plaque in front of the mansion, and the servants in black are busy in front of the door, welcoming the guests to the mansion one by one, if there are important guests coming, the mansion will also walk out of the figure wearing white filial piety clothes, the guests and the people in white talk in front of the door, and they will soon be invited into the mansion.
Stomp and tread
In addition to the carriage, there will also be people stepping on horses, these people enter the city from the south gate of Shangling, and then go straight to Qingyuanfang, the knights on the horses are dusty, but without exception, the breath on the body is extremely powerful, some of the figures on the carriage occasionally recognize one or two knights, all of them exclaimed, quickly retreated the carriage to the side of the road, and respectfully waited for these knights to step through.
"The head of the Liu family in Qingyuan City, Liu Qinghe has arrived"
"The head of the Zhang family and the lord of the city in Yuyang City, Zhang Wei arrived"
When the knights on the horse arrived outside Qingyuanfang, they all subconsciously slowed down the speed of the horse, and when they arrived at the gate of the house, they turned over and dismounted neatly, and soon a servant stepped forward to lead the horse away.
Most of the visitors on the carriage were greeted by the butler's concierge, and once these figures on horseback arrived, young men in white clothes would come out of the palace gate and welcome these powerful knights into the palace in person.
The wide street outside the gate of the Yuan family mansion was already full of horse-drawn carriages, but more people were coming.
Soon, a group of figures arrived outside Qingyuan Fang.
In the center of the team were four men in black robes, whether they were middle-aged or old, these people had a majestic look on their faces, exuding a powerful momentum, a team of black-armored knights opened the way in front, and the sergeants who were also guarding in the rear.
"Warriors, these people are warriors"
The people in the carriage looked at the dozens of black-armored soldiers, their expressions were shocked, and when they saw the black mandala flower mark on the armor, they hurriedly asked their own carriage to get out of the way, and the street outside Qingyuanfang was suddenly empty.
The knights who came from the rear also took the initiative to slow down their horses when they saw this group of figures, followed the horse team with a respectful expression, and slowly advanced with the team.
The chief steward in front of the door saw the black-armored knight on the street, his face changed instantly, he gave an order, and then walked quickly towards the door of the mansion
"Elder of the Flame Alliance, Luo Li, the head of the Luo family, is here"
"Elder of the Flame Alliance, Lou Xiao, the head of the Lou family, has arrived"
"Elder of the Flame Alliance, Chen Beizhou, the head of the Chen family, has arrived"
"Elder of the Flame Alliance, the head of the Mo family is as good as the sea"
The solemn sound of registration continued to echo outside the door of the mansion, and quickly spread to the inner house.
The carriage and horses outside the gate of the Yuan Mansion were quickly emptied, and some of the visiting visitors were also carefully invited to the side by the servants to wait, and the horse team quickly stopped in front of the Yuan Mansion Gate, and the four figures in the center dismounted and waited quietly by the door, and the black armor soldier with a breathing breath followed silently behind him, and there was a sudden silence in front of the Yuan Mansion Gate.
After a while, a middle-aged man wearing filial piety clothes quickly walked out of the mansion, followed by several Yuan family members and a group of young children with serious expressions, and almost all the important people of the entire Yuan family came out.
"The head of the Yuan family has come out"
"It's natural, these people must come out when they arrive," the narrator whispered
The middle-aged man looked at the few people waiting quietly by the door, and his feet were a few minutes faster, and the people of the Yuan family behind him also hurriedly followed, and under the gaze of a group of people, the two groups of people finally converged.
