Chapter 314: Peng Lingxiu
The black-robed young man's words sounded a little incongruous, but this should have been his deliberate intention, deliberately pointing out the word "my clan" twice, which was already a direct identification of his identity.
And his statement also made Peng Hui's previous speculation invalid, Peng Hui never thought that it was actually a person from the Phantom Tide Royal Family who came to rescue him—the person from the inner clan who he had been longing to return to for a long time!
"Well, it's not surprising that you'll be surprised, but your real name has been revealed in recent years, and your record is also very good, and of course we can also know that you are also from the Peng clan. The black-robed young man said after a deep sigh.
This is understandable, the node where Peng Hui entered the Dao Tower World happened to be adjacent to the time when Shaking Light Tianzun was making trouble in Dragon Soul City, and his performance in the Trial Tower was also extremely good and his reputation was far and wide; for example, Peng Wei, he should also know Peng Hui's identity, so it would not be surprising that the news was transmitted back to the royal headquarters.
"But I'm just a sin from my ancestors, how could they be so kind to come to my rescue? However, Peng Hui calmed down in the end and did not forget the doubts in his heart.
Although from the results, the rescue of the black-robed young man and the old man made him grateful, but just because of the sentence "they are all his own people" could not deceive Peng Hui, no matter how brilliant his record was, he did not believe that the royal family would take the initiative to rescue him.
And if you really want to protect yourself, why don't you make a statement on the bright side like Shaking Light Tianzun? Are you afraid that the relationship with Feixianmen will be stiff? I'm afraid not.
According to his understanding, the veins expelled by the Phantom Tide Royal Family in such a long period of time are not few, and there are now dozens of branches across the country, many of which are equivalent to the sub-top power level, but their requests to return to the inner clan have been ruthlessly shelved.
With such a background, Peng Hui categorically would not believe the reason that the black-robed young man said, they must have another purpose, otherwise how could this rescue be so appropriate.
After sorting out his thoughts, Peng Hui weighed his words and said, "It turns out that the two of you are really from the inner clan, then I should be grateful again." ”
After that, Peng Hui was grateful again, and deliberately made a gesture that wanted to say something, he believed that the young man and the old man in the black robe were both careful people and smart people.
Keeping a smile, the black-robed young man recalled the conversation he had with someone two years ago, and continued: "Well, in fact, you should also be curious why the royal family, which has always ignored the separation, would come to your rescue. ”
Peng Hui immediately followed the rhythm and made an extremely curious look, even though he knew that this seemed to be impossible to hide from the wise black-robed young man and the old man.
"Actually, I don't represent the royal family this time, only me and the faction I belong to, and I am completely opposed to the royal family's code of conduct for so many years. The black-robed young man said leisurely, causing the old man beside him to change his face slightly.
"Do you really want to give it all out? His Royal Highness the Second Prince seems to have been coerced and lured by Fan Mengtian. The old man muttered, with his strength, no one could eavesdrop.
Peng Hui's mind was shocked, of course, it is reasonable for different factions to exist in the royal family, and it is indeed easier for the black-robed young man to accept such a statement - because I oppose the current standards of the royal family, I have come to your rescue, and I don't want the outstanding talents of the Peng family to wither.
But Peng Hui's brain was still a little easy to use, and he instantly realized that he was already in an extremely difficult situation.
The other party's rescue of himself is equivalent to making himself owe an adult to ask, and the implication of this sentence is to woo himself, wanting to let himself join the faction he is in, although he can get a certain amount of protection, but he essentially does not want to be involved in the internal struggle of the royal family so early.
However, the black-robed young man is obviously determined to win, and his status in the clan should be very high, because he calls the Venerable who entourages him the second elder, and the only people who can invite the second elder of the Peng clan are probably those princes.
In this way, he actually has no choice, and the obsession in his heart to return to the inner clan is also restless, this will also be a great temptation for Peng Hui, even if he will bear part of the price in advance!
"I see, I'm afraid that Xiao Sheng is going to take the liberty of imploring the two of you, can you let me join your faction too?"
Hearing this, the corners of the black-robed young man's mouth curled, and after glancing at the old man, he patted Peng Hui's shoulder lightly, and said: "The one who knows the times is Junjie, I promise that I will definitely be able to let you officially return to the inner clan in the future, and with your joining, I believe that day will come earlier." ”
"From today onwards, you can see yourself as a member of the Inner Clan, well, this is the token of the Peng Clan, and you don't have to worry about the people of the Flying Immortal Sect daring to mess around in the future. The black-robed young man was obviously in a very good mood, and as soon as the space ring flashed, a silver token fell on Peng Hui's.
Looking at the word "Peng" engraved on it, Peng Hui's heart suddenly felt a lot of emotion, the world was unpredictable, he actually hooked up with the inner clan early by mistake.
Giving the protection system to himself in this way, the other party obviously really recognized him, at least this made Peng Hui a little happy, but he just hoped that the other party would not let him get involved in the internal clan dispute too early.
"Thank you. Unable to make some vows or assurances easily, Peng Hui only thanked the other party a little more after all.
Next, the black-robed young man and the old man took Peng Hui into the city, and after passing through some buildings, they rushed straight to the city lord's mansion, and the city lord was already standing outside the gate to greet him personally.
This is a quasi-king, basically the strongest Terran monk in the Great Wilderness, he warmly entertained the three of them, and Peng Hui also learned a little information from his words.
First of all, he called the black-robed young man "Your Highness", and the only people who could be called like this in the Peng clan were the princes, so Peng Hui confirmed his guess.
Secondly, the city lord also confessed that he was blocked by the elders of the Flying Immortal Gate and could not send men and horses to attack the bandits, and his face was indeed not very comfortable when he was forced by tens of thousands of bandits to make trouble outside the city.
After the feast, the city lord retired first, and found a quiet room for the three of them according to the order, and the second elder finally entered and cast a spell to shield the outside world.
"Second Elder, I have something I want to talk to Peng Hui about alone. The black-robed young man said.
Hearing this, the old man resigned very respectfully, and it could be seen that he was completely a cronie of the black-robed youth, and Peng Hui was even more convinced that the status of the black-robed young man among the princes should not be low, and their faction should be strong enough.
"I personally promised to let me return to my inner clan in the future, and the faction has such strength, I am afraid he wants to become the next monarch. Peng Hui said silently.
The structure and decoration of the ashram was very exquisite, rare in the wilderness, and even the chairs they were seated in at this time were made of precious wood, which made people feel very comfortable, as was the small square table in front of them.
"Phew, I'm sorry to forget to tell me who I am, I'm just glad that you can join my faction. The black-robed young man smiled.
Immediately, he took out another letter from the space ring, the material looked extremely high-grade, and after handing it to Peng Hui, the black-robed young man relaxed his smile and said naturally: "I am the second prince Peng Lingxiu, and the previous one should know that it is the second elder." ”
Peng Hui was instantly shocked, not only because he heard the true identity of the black-robed young man, but also because he happened to see the person who signed the letter on the surface.
"As you can see, it was my senior brother who first revealed your value to me. Peng Lingxiu said casually, Peng Hui's astonishment had long been expected by him.
"Whew...... It's rude. After taking a few deep breaths, Peng Hui came back to his senses and realized his gaffe, he couldn't help but apologize and sat back in his seat.
"I didn't expect it to be involved with Brother Yumo, listening to what Peng Lingxiu said, it turned out that Brother Yumo was trying to find a way to take care of me. Peng Hui's heart warmed.
He hasn't seen Brother Yumo for many years, so he naturally misses it very much. For himself, Yumo is not only his sworn brother, but also equivalent to his master, but also his guide and great benefactor!
He knew the relationship between Yu Mo and Peng Lingxiu's senior brothers, and before he opened the letter and read it, Peng Hui could understand that the eldest brother was helping him invisibly.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince......" With the connection of Yu Mo, Peng Hui's suspicion of Peng Lingxiu suddenly decreased by half, and he temporarily regarded him as a credible person, and was about to speak.
However, Peng Lingxiu forcibly interjected: "You don't have to call me that, since the senior brother said that you call him the eldest brother, then you can call me the second brother, you shouldn't mind, right?"
Belch...... Inexplicably, there is another second brother, I heard that the other two true heirs of Sixiangmen have also survived, and they seem to be all women, wouldn't they have two more sisters in the future?
Su Li seems to be a personal disciple of the Easy Daoist, which means that he also has to be counted, and Archer also calls himself a righteous brother-uh...... In the future, this relationship will be a little chaotic, and it is estimated that it will be lively.
"You better take a look at the letter your eldest brother gave you, hehe, but first, I've peeked at it. ”
And this has also been confirmed, just after seeing the first or two rows of words exposed, Peng Hui couldn't help but want to complain about his eldest brother and second brother.
"Little brother, if you can see this letter, it means that you should meet with Peng Lingxiu, and it seems that you are safe. But that guy must have peeked at the letter...... "Generally speaking, my eldest brother is more powerful."
As Peng Hui continued to read, Peng Lingxiu had already taken out a delicate tea set and made two cups of tea. In the Luminous Continent, drinking tea is very popular, and if you drink directly when entertaining people, it will look a little vulgar. And almost everyone knows the art of making tea.
"Big brother is really like a god, he even figured out the reason for my disappearance. After reading a few more rows, Peng Hui couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Brother Yu Mo has also been inquiring about his own news, of course he can pierce the pretense that the upper echelons of the Dao Tower have made for his disappearance, but it is also accurate to be able to infer that his disappearance is related to the forbidden land.
But in this way, Peng Lingxiu also knew, it seems that Yu Mo deliberately "revealed" this matter to him in order to add another "bargaining chip" to Peng Hui;
"By the way, Peng Lingxiu's generation and I used to be known as the 'Golden Age', and I have been promoted from the second order to the fifth order in the ten years of the Four Elephant Gate, so you can't rest on your laurels, hoping to see you defeat the Chosen One as soon as possible. However, when he read the last few rows, Peng Hui encountered Yu Mo's admonition, which was simply a master's tone.
"From the second order to the fifth order in ten years!" Peng Hui was greatly impacted, and he could roughly feel the excellence of the "golden generation" in the past.
"So junior brother, you have to continue to work hard, I may assign you a task after a few years of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, I hope you can reach the fifth order at that time!" Seeing that Peng Hui finished reading the letter, Peng Lingxiu took advantage of the situation and brought him tea.
There was a strong ambition lurking in the depths of his pupils, and Yu Mo knew him perfectly, and for Peng Lingxiu, Peng Hui's rapid strength would be more and more beneficial to him—as long as his realm was still above him!
"I've been cultivating for almost nine years, and I've risen from the first order to the half-step fourth order, and now the fourth order is within reach, as for the fifth order, I will definitely reach it in two years at most after the Three Kingdoms Alliance. Peng Hui opened his mouth and promised Peng Lingxiu, but also to the distant rain desert.
After taking a big sip of tea, Peng Hui felt that his fighting spirit was aroused again, and the second brother's cup of tea was really refreshing.
Since you must become a king within the age of 100, of course, you must quickly become a high-level monk first, and only when you enter the fifth order can you be considered to be out of the category of a minor monk. (To be continued)
