Lu Lin'er didn't pay attention to Lu Yu all night, and early the next morning, before she got up, she was knocked on the door by the maid and notified to participate in the Lu family's meeting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lu Yu had just gotten up, and when he saw Lu Lin'er leaving with the maid, she also got dressed and followed. Yesterday, he heard from other people that Lu Yuan was entangled in his sister's affairs, and the Lu family's normal meeting would not let his subordinates participate, so he expected that this meeting might be related to his sister.

Lu Yu didn't step forward to say hello, but just followed Lu Lin'er's figure. When she walked through the fork in the road, Lu Lin'er looked up and glanced at him and ignored him. Lu Yu saw that her face was pale, her eyes were red, as if she had been crying all night, and there was a touch of bitterness in her eyes.

Lu Yu and Lu Lin'er are members of the Lu family, and they both live in the northwest corner of the Lu family, because there are many wings here. They crossed the rockery, the small bridge, walked out of the back garden, and then walked a distance, past the Lu family ancestral hall, which is the Lu family hall, which is the place where the Lu family's high-level deliberations are held.

At this time, outside the hall, there were many juniors of the Lu family, who were not qualified to enter the inner hall, but they were also summoned to listen to the deliberations outside the hall.

The maid took Lu Lin'er and squeezed into the crowd, Lu Yu didn't step forward, just stood behind the crowd, he was not short, and he could see what was happening in the hall.

In the main hall of the Lu family, there were many people sitting, and almost all the high-level leaders of the Lu family gathered together, including Lu Han and Lu Yuan.

The maid walked to the door, bowed slightly and said, "Back to Lu Gongzi, the slave maid brought Lu Lin'er." ”

Lu Yuan glanced at this side, nodded slightly, and then pointed at Lu Lin'er, signaling to stand next to him. Lu Lin'er didn't move, just stood outside the hall, and Lu Yuan's face suddenly turned a little colder.

The others didn't look this way, they were still talking about something, and Lu Yu saw that these people's faces were very heavy, as if they had encountered some trouble.

A middle-aged man who looked easy-going sitting on the first seat was Lu Zhishan, the head of the Lu family, who was frowning at the moment, listening to the report of the person next to him

At his hem is Lu Zhi'an, the number two person of the Lu family, who is the same generation as Lu Zhishan, but his strength is not as strong as Lu Zhishan, and he is Lu Yuan's father.

The rest of the Lu family elders were also present, and the seats were full.

"That means that if we don't hand over the junior who opened the Star Soul within half a year, the Four Seas Pavilion will give up supplying us with Star Stones?" Lu Zhishan's voice was very magnetic, and he muttered at this time: "Half a year, why are they in such a hurry?"

Lu Yu understood why the Lu family was so anxious to get together today, it turned out that there was an order from the Four Seas Pavilion. It was precisely because the Lu family was attached to the Four Seas Pavilion that the words of the Four Seas Pavilion were tantamount to a holy decree to them.

Lu Zhian shook his head and said, "I also received the news this morning, and I don't know the specific reason." But I guess there's probably something going on up there. ”

Lu Zhishan said: "What about the Liu family and other families? ”

"I don't know, but with the style of the Four Seas Pavilion, I shouldn't be biased against them. Lu Zhian hesitated: "The person who hurriedly ordered us this time is the high-level of the Four Seas Pavilion, and it seems that they attach great importance to this matter." ”

"If you don't pay attention to it, you won't use the supply of star stones as a condition. Lu Zhishan sighed, his face was very solemn.

If a martial cultivator wants to cultivate, he needs the Star Stone at any time, and the Star Stone is the fate of a small family like the Lu family. Cutting off the supply of star stones is equivalent to chronic suicide for the entire Lu family, unable to develop, and sooner or later will be swallowed up and destroyed by other families.

The following elders are also discussing.

"Just give us half a year, where can we go to get the juniors who open the star soul for them, is this the day that is going to kill our Lu family?"

"Half a year, it's easy to say, but it's not easy to open the star soul. Even if you have that qualification, if you are anxious and communicate with the waste star, the star soul is incompetent in battle, and it is not a failure. ”

"The two children with the highest talent in our current family are Lu Han and Lu Yuan, but there is still a long way to go before we can communicate with the star soul, alas!"

"Family Master, I don't believe it, even if we don't send out the descendants who opened the Star Soul in the past six months, then the Four Seas Pavilion will really break our Star Stone? We have worshiped them for decades and emptied several mines, and our efforts are not a lot!"

Lu Zhishan said with a sad face: "Alas, our offerings to the Four Seas Pavilion can also be done by other families. Even if they don't have our Lu family's ore veins, they can give them to other families. ”

"Can they cross the river and tear down the bridge like this?" said one person complained.

"The reality is so cruel, although our Lu family belongs to the Four Seas Pavilion, but for them, it is dispensable. And the Four Seas Pavilion is a bronze power, just like our food and clothing parents!" Lu Zhishan was silent for a long time and said, "If other families also receive warnings, we may all be a starting point, but I am afraid that the Four Seas Pavilion is deliberately targeting us." ”

"Can't you, right?" even if Sihai Pavilion hasn't favored our Lu family over the years, there is nothing unfair about it, and besides, they don't have a reason to target us!?" Lu Zhian asked puzzled.

"Over the years, we have sent too few talents to Sihai Pavilion. Our sworn enemy, the Liu family, also had a junior who opened the star soul a year ago. And our Lu family has not had such a genius for ten years, and we have been supported by mines all these years. Lu Zhishan shook his head: "So this half-year period, even if other families can delay it, our Lu family really can't push it." ”

"If I and the head of the family go to the Four Seas Pavilion in person, I don't believe they are really so ruthless

。 An elder suggested.

"This is just the last resort, I think the top priority is to find a way to cultivate a junior who can open the star soul. Lu Zhi'an said.

"What you said also makes sense, we must go to the Four Seas Pavilion, but we must be prepared for both. Lu Zhishan frowned and looked twisted into a rope: "But it is too difficult to communicate with the stars and open the star soul within half a year." ”

"Second uncle, nephew has the confidence to give it a try. Seeing this, Lu Yuan stood up directly from his seat and saluted to the mountain of landing, his eyes firm.

Lu Zhian took over the conversation and said, "Oh, that's right. Lu Yuan has also mentioned to me many times that he has faintly shown signs of breakthrough during this time. ”

"Is there such a good thing?" Hearing this, Lu Zhishan's face suddenly improved a lot, and he looked at Lu Yuan's gaze with appreciation: "Okay, since you have this thought, it is no better, the Lu family will spare no effort to help you cultivate and improve." ”

The eyes of all the elders also looked towards Lu Yuan, and there was no lack of appreciation in their eyes. The eyes of the juniors outside the hall were full of envy, only Lu Lin'er bit her lip lightly, and her face was very ugly.

Lu Yu watched what was happening in the hall outside the door, his face expressionless.

Lu Zhian nodded and said: "In our vein, only the inferior son and Han's niece may open the Star Soul within half a year, so we might as well give it a go." ”

Lu Zhishan nodded slightly: "It seems that he is the only hope for our Lu family." ”

"By the way, my nephew has something to beg the second uncle to make the decision for me!" Lu Yuan said.

"Just say. Lu Zhishan saw the hope of the Lu family at this time, and his face was finally no longer so gloomy.

"My nephew has liked Lu Lin'er for a long time, and I hope that the second uncle can agree to our marriage. Lu Yuan said: "I want to marry her as a concubine!"

Hearing this, Lu Lin'er's delicate body suddenly trembled, and then her eyes were fixed on Lu Zhishan. The juniors outside also looked at Lu Lin'er's figure, some jealous, some sympathetic.

"It's a trivial matter, it's accurate. Lu Zhishan didn't think about it, and nodded directly.

"I don't agree!" However, at this time, a coquettish voice roared out, and everyone was suddenly shocked, Lu Lin'er's eyes were cold, and she shouted: "I don't like him, I don't want to marry him, let alone marry him as a concubine!"

Lu Lin'er dared to refuse here, not only because of his stubborn personality, but also because of this world culture. The marriage between men and women in the three-element realm is still relatively open, and most of them are willing, but for some powerful people or forces, there are also things that are forcible and robbed.

"I really don't know how to lift!" Lu Han suddenly snorted dissatisfiedly: "If you want to marry Brother Lu Yuan as a concubine, you can afford to look at you, and you don't want to give face." I don't look at my status in the Lu family, if the Lu family hadn't seen your brother and sister pitiful in the past few years and took you in, otherwise they would have kicked you out!"

The crowd of onlookers also heard mocking voices.

"That is to say, Brother Lu Yuan is the hope of the Lu family, and marrying him is a first-class good thing. If you enter the Four Seas Pavilion in the future, the future is limitless, why don't you know what to do?"

"In my opinion, it is to be cheap, and to deceive more benefits from the head of the family. ”

"It's disgusting that this person is pretending to be innocent here. ”

Lu Lin'er's tears swirled in her eyes, and her heart was stinging and dripping blood

。 At this time, he wished that someone could stand up and protect her by her side, even if it was just for him, but she only had a cowardly brother.

At this time, a pair of slightly warm hands reached out from the side and grabbed him tightly. Lu Lin'er's heart moved slightly, and then she saw Lu Yu standing beside her.

Lu Yu felt Lu Lin'er's little hand holding him tightly, and then tears poured down, and the long-suppressed feelings suddenly erupted.

He glanced at his grieving sister, looked at Lu Zhishan, and said in a low voice: "Lu Zhishan, have you forgotten what my father did for the Lu family twenty years ago?"

Lu Yu's voice was not loud, but the content was amazing. Everyone looked at Lu Zhishan, curious about what Lu Yu meant.

These descendants have never seen Lu Yu's father since they can remember, they only know that these two people were adopted by the Lu family, although they have the same surname, they are not related by blood, and they don't know the meaning of his father to the Lu family.

Everyone in the hall was stunned, Lu Zhishan's face was slightly gloomy, and he was silent for a long time: "Just because you haven't forgotten, you didn't drive your brother and sister out of the Lu family, otherwise you would have frozen to death on the streets!"

Lu Yu smiled slightly, but his face was lonely: "It seems that my father is kind to the Lu family, but so, it seems that I think too much." ”

"Even fifteen years ago, your father was kind to the Lu family, but it was in the past. Our Lu family needs to develop and survive! And now, the Lu family is such a genius as Lu Yuan, and anything that hinders Lu Yuan's cultivation must be avoided. Lu Zhishan's voice was loud, and the strong breath was overwhelming, pressing on Lu Yu's body, for an ordinary person like Lu Yu, it was tantamount to Mount Tai pressing the top.

Lu Yu's face remained unchanged and asked, "For the sake of his cultivation, can he bury the happiness of an innocent person?"

"Yes. Lu Zhishan's face remained unchanged and he was categorical.

Lu Yu's face was cold, his little face was deformed because of anger, and he couldn't take his eyes off Lu Zhishan. The latter's aura became more and more intense, as if he was going to squeeze his thin body. Lu Yu stubbornly held on, and his body did not give in at all.

Lu Lin'er felt Lu Yu's anger, and she also bit her lip tightly, oozing blood. After a moment, he sighed.

After a long while, Lu Yu withdrew his gaze. Looking at Lu Lin'er sideways, she grabbed her hand tightly, turned around and said, "No matter what, I won't let you marry Lu Yuan, let's go." ”

Then, he led Lu Lin'er out of the crowd.

"Second uncle, this ......" Lu Yuan's eyes flashed with anger, and he pointed at Lu Yu's back.

"Patriarch, do you want me to take them back?" said one of the guards.

"Don't worry about them, the affairs of the Lu family have not degenerated enough to be decided by a subordinate. This matter is so decided, three months later, today, the wedding will be held at the Lu family, no need to say more!"

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at Lu Yu's back, his teeth were clenched, and there was a creaking sound, and he said, "Second uncle, my nephew has another request, can you hand over this person Lu Yu to me to summon." ”

"Whatever you want! In the future, you don't have to tell me about such a trivial matter. As long as you can open the Star Soul within half a year, whatever you do, I will unconditionally agree. Lu Zhishan waved his hand and said, "Prepare some offerings for me, I'm going to go to the Four Seas Pavilion in the afternoon." ”

Chen Zhian nodded and ordered. (To be continued)
