The Imperial City of the Emperor of the Sacred Realm was built in Jinling City, and in addition, Jinling City was also inhabited by many powerful families, most of whom were Ministers of the Sacred Domain, and the Ministers of the Sacred Realm were the people who helped the Emperor rule the Sacred Territory together.

In the Holy Domain, the Minister of the Holy Land is in a high position, and his family will naturally rise with the tide!
Under the command of the Emperor, the three most powerful ministers of the Holy Domain, one is called Han Xiao, one is called Lan Shixun, and the other is called Lu Haoqian! Among the three, Han Xiao and Lu Haoqian are older, while the newly rising Lan Shixun has been in the limelight and the most prosperous in the past few years.
Lu Yifan is one of the three powerful ministers of the Holy Domain, the son of Lu Haoqian!
Jinling City, in the Blue Mansion, inside the secret room!
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, I saw a burly, meaty middle-aged man staring gloomily at the six black-clothed men kneeling in front of him, and his fist like a copper cymbal pressed heavily on the table, the loud noise just now was made by him!
This person is the patriarch of the Lan family, the minister of the Holy Domain, Lan Shixun!
"You can't even deal with a little baby, you still dare to ask me for a bounty!" Lan Shixun's voice was gloomy and scary at the moment!
"Lord Lan, this ...... This little baby is not simple!" The man in black at the head explained with an aggrieved face, "His external skills are stronger than ours!"
"I didn't expect you to kill him!" Lan Shixun said in a deep voice, "I just hope that you can take the opportunity to hurt him a little bit so that he can't participate in the Heavenly Grace Selection Competition!"
The man in black led by "This ......" looked very embarrassed, "Then Lord Lan, our remuneration ......"
"Hmph, what kind of face do you have to ask for a reward for such useless waste like you?"
Before Lan Shixun could open his mouth, he saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy open the door and walked over, this young man was quite handsome, but there was a thick cold and arrogant color between his eyebrows.
"Chen'er, you're here!" Lan Shixun saw the young man, and his originally solemn face suddenly became a little embarrassed, "I ......"
"Dad, haven't I said it many times?" Lan Chen said first, "I want to defeat Lu Yifan with my own hands, I don't need you to intervene to help me!
"Of course not!" Hearing this, Lan Shixun hurriedly vetoed, "You and your brother are both the pride of your father, your brother's soul power cultivation is not bad, and your talent is far beyond him! How can your father not believe you? Father is doing this just to protect himself! Although the exercises you are cultivating now are already of the highest grade, if you can take the opportunity of heavenly grace to evolve your high-grade exercises into divine products, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings!"
The soul power exercise is divided into three types: lower grade, middle grade, and upper grade, and above the upper grade, there is also a legendary divine product exercise, the divine product is not a mortal thing, and the only way to obtain the divine product exercise in the holy domain is to accept the grace of heaven!
The more advanced the exercises, the more demanding the talent and qualifications required to cultivate them, and the fewer people can cultivate.
A person who can successfully cultivate the high-grade exercises can be said to be a genius like no other in ten thousand!
In this world, a kind of divine product exercise can only be suitable for one person to cultivate, as long as this person does not die, then even if this divine product exercise falls into the hands of others, it will definitely not be able to cultivate.
This is also why Lan Shixun is so eager for the Divine Exercises!
Lan Chen is the person with the highest cultivation talent in the Lan family for hundreds of years, and now he has reached the level of a fourth-turn soul master at the age of fifteen, and those who can achieve such an achievement will not exceed the number of people in the holy realm!
Therefore, Lan Shixun is bent on giving Lan Chen the best conditions, so that he can develop his ambitions in the future and stabilize the position of the Lan family for the next few hundred years.
Lan Shixun's words made Lan Chen smile coldly, and then said lightly: "Lu Yifan hasn't even condensed his soul power, how can I put such a person in my eyes!"
"My son Zhigao, in another year or two, I naturally won't put that Lu Yifan in my eyes, but if today's election is imminent, Lu Yifan's nine-year hard practice is more or less a threat to you now!" Lan Shixun said with a wry smile.
"Dad, don't meddle in this matter anymore!I will prove to you that Lu Yifan is just a clown jumping off the beam at the competition!" Lan Chen's tone was full of determination.
Hearing the conversation between the Lan father and son, the six men in black were also surprised in their hearts, and then the men in black led by him still stubbornly said: "Lord Lan, Master Lan, then we ......."
"A bunch of waste! This defeat will lose the face of my Lan family!" Before the man in black could finish speaking, Lan Chen said in a cold voice, "I think you will use your own dog life as reparation!"
"Ahh
Before the six black-clothed men had time to exclaim, they saw Lan Chen's feet move, and their bodies swam around between the six people like ghosts, and when Lan Chen returned to Lan Shixun's body, the six people were already dead to ashes, and they froze there one by one, and after a while, they fell down with a bang, obviously turning into six corpses!
Until the death of the six people, they never thought that they did not die in the hands of the enemy, but in the hands of their own masters.
"Chen'er, your dragon ghost hand has become more and more proficient!" Lan Shixun was not surprised by this, and there was a touch of appreciation in his gaze when he looked at Lan Chen.
"Hmph! Just one Lu Yifan, even thinking about competing with me, it's just a fool's dream!"
Lan Chen said that, then turned around and walked out of the secret room.
Lan Shixun knew that his son would definitely continue to practice again, and the most valuable thing about Lan Chen was not only his talent, but also his perseverance and almost harsh requirements for himself. In order to become stronger, Lan Chen's hard work is no less than that of Lu Yifan.
After Lan Chen left, the smile on Lan Shixun's face gradually converged, and then a terrifying cold light appeared between his eyebrows!
"Have you arranged everything you have done?" Lan Shixun actually said into the empty room.
"Lord Hui, I have selected six masters from the mansion to accompany Gongzi to participate in the competition, with them, I will definitely be able to secretly assist Gongzi all the way to the finals and win the first place!"
"Okay!" Lan Shixun couldn't help but show a weird smile when he heard this, "Tian'en has a large number of selections, and the biggest advantage is that it adopts a melee competition system, and with them to clear the obstacles for Chen'er, then our chances ......of winning will be a little more!"
......
The Blue Mansion is located in the north of Jinling City, and in the south of Jinling City, there is a huge mansion comparable to the Blue Mansion, the Lu Mansion!
In the huge Lu Mansion, the carved beams are hung up, and the rockery garden has everything, and the most pleasant landscape in the Lu Mansion is a square pavilion in the inner lake of the house, named Lan Pavilion!
Lanting is Lu Haoqian's favorite, and he likes to set up a family banquet in the Lanting Pavilion on weekdays, and enjoy the joy of family with everyone in the Lu family.
Lu Haoqian is nearly forty years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, straight nose and wide mouth, he is quite handsome, tall but not burly, calm and slightly introverted, and always gives people an elegant atmosphere between his words and deeds.
At noon, Lu Haoqian looked up and down at Lu Yifan, who had just come to Lanting, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
"Ancient, what kind of person is so bold that he dares to assassinate Fan'er?" A graceful and luxurious beautiful woman sitting next to Lu Haoqian asked angrily, this person is Lu Yifan's mother, Liu Qingyuan!
"Mrs. Hui's words, although there is no absolute evidence, eighty percent should be the Lan family!" Gu replied respectfully.
"I had long expected that there would be no one else but Lan Shixun who could do such a despicable thing at this time!" Lu Haoqian said with a sinking face, and then smiled lightly, comforting Liu Qingyuan and said, "But Fan'er can also take this opportunity to hone once, after all, there is ancient secret protection, what will happen?"
Lu Haoqian's words made Liu Qingyuan nod slightly, and then said to Lu Yifan with a concerned face: "But don't go out to practice these days, if you want to practice, let Wencai and them accompany you to practice in the house!"
The "Wencai" mentioned by Liu Qingyuan is Lu Yifan's cousin, Lu Wencai, a strange person with low cultivation talent but an unusually cheerful personality.
"Got it!" Lu Yifan respectfully agreed, Lu Yifan has had great respect for Lu Haoqian and Liu Qingyuan since he was a child.
Lu Yifan is different from Lan Chen, although they are both powerful young masters, Lu Yifan's heart is more restrained than Lan Chen's arrogance.
"My lord, what do you want to do about this?" Gu asked softly, "Do you want me to send a "return gift" to the Lan family?"
When Gu said this, his tone was obviously a little gloomy!
After thinking for a moment, Lu Haoqian slowly shook his head and said: "No need! Now that the selection competition is imminent, we should focus all our energy on helping Fan'er win, you know, Fan'er is my only son, and his success or failure this time will determine the future rise and fall of the Lu family! Therefore, this matter is the top priority now, as for the Lan family, since Lan Shixun chose to hire a foreign killer, he didn't plan to leave us enough evidence, so we don't have to waste time with them!"
After Lu Haoqian said this, his eyes turned, and he said to Lu Yifan with a smile: "Yifan, the competition is coming, what are your chances of winning?"
"Dad, do I still have a choice in this battle?" Lu Haoqian's words made Lu Yifan smile bitterly, "Accepting the grace of heaven is my only chance to cultivate my soul power, and the pros and cons are even more aware of it, so this battle can only be won, not lost!"
"Okay!" Lu Haoqian was very pleased with Lu Yifan's determination, "You have practiced external skills for nine years in the stars and the moon, if you can receive the grace of heaven to obtain the divine product exercises this time, my Lu family will definitely be prosperous and stable in the next hundred years!"
"The child will definitely not disappoint the hopes of his father and the elders!" Lu Yifan said with a straight face.
"Ancient!" Lu Haoqian's words changed, "These **** will accompany Fan'er to breathe in the mansion!"
"Pranayama?" Lu Yifan frowned, obviously he didn't understand the meaning of Lu Haoqian's words.
"Yes, young master, you can know that there are many masters in this competition, and young master, your biggest chance of winning lies in your strong physique!" Gu answered, "Your physique is different from ordinary people, what I want to teach you these days is a set of rapid pranayama methods, once you are injured on the field, you can use this method and cooperate with your unique weird physique, it will definitely become an excellent hole card for you to turn the tables in the end!"
"Call Lu Jun and Lu Wencai together!" Lu Haoqian frowned slightly, and said carefully word by word, "Lan Shixun is cunning by nature, this interception can't be successful, I think he will definitely do it again during the competition, due to the large number ......of participants in the selection competition, so from the audition to the finals, all are melee competition systems, Lan Shixun will secretly arrange some helpers to participate in the competition in order to ensure that Lan Chen can go to the end, so that they will escort Lan Chen all the way!
"So the adults want to let the other children in the clan compete together to share the pressure on the young master!" Before Lu Haoqian's words could be finished, Gu Gu had already guessed his next words.
"Not bad!" Lu Hao nodded faintly, "Lord Han, I have already said hello, he will ask Ling'er's girl to come over to help, although the cultivation of these children cannot compete with Lan Chen and Fan'er, but compared to most of the contestants, it is enough to deal with!"
Lu Jun and the others are all the heirs of the Lu family, although their status is not as noble as that of Lu Yifan, the son of the patriarch, but after all, they are from a large family, and the teaching and training they have received since childhood are naturally many times higher than that of ordinary children, so among their peers, their cultivation is already good.
Counting it up, Lu Jun is still Lu Yifan's elder brother, they are the same age as Lu Wencai, and they are only a few months older than Lu Yifan.
The reason why Lu Haoqian asked them to compete together was naturally the result of his careful consideration.
"Among the contestants participating in this competition, it is my Lu family and the Lan family that have the greatest power!" Lu Haoqian continued, "And both of us have let out the words that we are bound to win the heavenly grace this time, and the others will definitely not fight with us without knowing the times, and with the strength of Fan'er and Lan Chen now, they have already surpassed the other players! Therefore, we have to prepare a lot, the final is a five-person scuffle, and it is better to have more of our own people on the field to avoid being besieged!"
"My lord is wise!" Hearing Lu Haoqian's analysis, Gu naturally agreed.
This grace may be the icing on the cake for the Lan family, but for the Lu family, it is undoubtedly the last straw.
Lu Yifan is not only burdened with his personal future, but also related to the future destiny of the entire family!
It's just that the Tianen Competition can really go as smoothly as Lu Haoqian expected?
