Volume 16, Chapter 14 [Meeting with the Duke of Pombert]
The arrival of Princess Siqi surprised Wenxiang Leiyun, but he knew that this princess was very cold, and the idlers were not taken seriously by her at all.
Unexpectedly, this Terran monk was actually her friend, and it came from the mouth of Princess Siqi.
In addition, this Wang Wei was also recommended by Kuluntai, and it seems that he is not a rootless person.
Although today's incident is indeed wrong with the Duke's Palace, how could they have apologized to those who were oppressed by the palace, but the Wang Rui they met today was not an ordinary person.
"In that case, why don't you invite the princess and this Wang Immortal Master into the mansion for a cup of tea?" Lei Yun couldn't see the depth of Wang Rui, and he was only called an immortal master, after all, he was a mortal.
Since Wang Rui has achieved the purpose of knocking on the door, he will naturally not object. Seeing this, Princess Siqi also decided to simply accompany Wang Rui to the Duke's Palace.
The onlookers immediately compiled all this information into information and sent it back to the forces of all parties, so Wang Rui, a newcomer who had just arrived in Tianhuo City, had a good reputation in a short period of time.
The concierge of the Duke's Mansion has been ordered by Lei Yun to be escorted to the main hall, and they were originally going to be escorted to the backyard to practice the family law, but now that Princess Siqi is beside her, it is not good to deal with it privately, so she plans to deal with it publicly.
At this time, the Duke's Mansion had already moved, and two major factional figures, the descendants of the descendants and the children of the Shu clan, continued to appear.
"Boss, what's going on, how did you let the old slave and other minions in the family get beaten and go to the hall to plead guilty, are you going to ask your father for sin?" Dozens of men and women walked over with a man with a fat figure and two mustaches.
Thundercloud's appearance was much better, and around him, there were soon dozens of people standing, forming two camps.
The porter was obviously the fat man's subordinate on the other side of the thundercloud, and when the owner of the old dog came, he immediately cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Second master, old slave me...... I'm wronged......"
Subsequently, the beaten thugs around the doorman shouted one after another, which suddenly made Lei Yun's face gloomy, these people had admitted their mistakes before, and they didn't expect to see someone supporting them and shouting grievances directly, wouldn't it mean that he wronged them?
"You dare to shout in front of me, don't you think I don't dare to kill people as soon as I do it?" The thundercloud's voice fell with a solemn coercion, which immediately stopped the crying porter and the others.
Seeing this, the fat man suddenly trembled with anger, and sneered: "Big brother is so powerful, but unfortunately this is not the imperial court, but the family."
"Second brother, you are arrogant and indulgent in these evil slaves to collect money, accept bribes, and corrupt the family style of the Duke's Mansion, if your father knows about it, I will see what you are." Thundercloud reprimanded.
The fat man suddenly became angry, his face turned red, and when he lost control, a stream of mental pressure suddenly erupted from his mind, directly turning into a spiritual wave, causing almost everyone around to cover their ears and squat on the ground in pain.
The same is true for Lei Yun, he is just a mortal, but his second brother is a monk, and he has cultivated to the late stage of Youdan, and belongs to the general-level powerhouse, at the same time, the exercises he practices are extremely mysterious spiritual system, which can manipulate spiritual power into various attacks, even Wang Rui is the first time to encounter it.
In the face of this spiritual wave, Wang Rui will be affected if he doesn't make a move, and the same is true for Princess Siqi, the two glanced at each other tacitly and made a move.
Princess Siqi pulled out a short golden blade from her waist, shaped like a sword, with a hollow-shaped structure on the spine of the sword, and a row of small bells on it.
When she danced this short blade, the bell instantly emitted sound waves, which offset the spiritual wave replenishment order and formed protection.
And Wang Rui was relatively simple, under the action of a thunder gravity, he directly lifted the fat second master over, and then interrupted his spiritual outburst, making this spiritual wave like a source of water, instantly disappearing.
Princess Siqi was taken aback, she didn't expect Wang Rui to act so quickly, and directly at the bottom of the kettle, although she could achieve similar results with her cultivation, but after all, she was afraid that this was the Duke's Palace, so she still restrained her impulse.
"You ......" The fat man raised his finger and pointed at Wang Rui, looking a little angry.
Wang Rui didn't care what his identity was, he slapped him directly on the back, it looked like an ordinary palm, but this palm scattered the spiritual energy in the meridians in his body, making it impossible for him to condense spiritual power in a short period of time.
However, in the eyes of others, Wang Rui was very bold and dared to attack the old duke's heir.
"Okay, it's important to get down to business, second brother, today's matter, eldest brother, I will be the master for a while, so that you don't end up being bullied by evil slaves in the future and take it away." After saying that, he asked the porter and the rest of the family to take away, and this time, no one dared to say anything more.
After Wang Rui and the others left, the fat man couldn't help but scold: "Who is this guy, why couldn't I resist at all just now?"
"I heard that this man defeated Mordwell." A person next to him said.
The fat man sighed and said, "No wonder, Mordwell is the one who is valued by that guy from Black Feather, but his strength just now seems to be much stronger than mine, no wonder Mordwell will be defeated."
"What now, Second Master?" Another supporter asked.
The fat man waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, let's see how this old slave will be, he has indeed gone too far in the past few years, and he dares to expire his master, such a slave is terrible."
After speaking, he followed the pace of his eldest brother and others, and came to the main hall, where there were several old men present at the moment, among which there were puppets, crane-haired and childish, and a simple jute robe, which made the old man have a unique momentum.
"Father, today's incident is that the old slave Kut has no eyes, and the person sent out is a person who has more than enough success and failure, plus this old slave's selfish desires have swelled in recent years, and his greed for ink is serious, which has insulted the reputation of my Duke's Mansion, but ......" Lei Yun's words changed, giving Kut, who was originally discouraged, a glimmer of hope.
After seeing the fat man come in, Lei Yun's expression did not change, and he continued to look at the majestic old man who was above him, and said, "But...... Nian has worked hard in Coote for most of his life, and he also has a credit to my Pombert family, and I also ask the head of the family to be extrajudicial and give back Coot's deed of sale, so that he can be a free citizen, but he must not have anything to do with the Duke's palace from now on, so that the affection of the master and servant can also be stopped."
The thunderclouds made Wang Rui feel that he was not like a barbarian, but a human race, and his words and tone of speech were very close to those of the human race, which once made Wang Rui wonder if he had returned to Dongxuanzhou.
"Good!" The old man opened his mouth and agreed, and the old Kut burst into tears, as for the rest of the family, they were not so lucky, and they had to be driven away after being beaten.
After dealing with these family affairs, Wang Rui felt that this Duke of Pombert was different, this person was worthy of being an old-timer, and it was rare to dare to expose his shortcomings in front of outsiders like Wang Rui and Princess Siqi.
Soon, Wang Rui and Princess Siqi followed Lei Yun and the fat second master to the backyard of the mansion and came to a garden with unique scenery, and the rest of them consciously retreated.
The garden was huge, and it was hard to imagine being able to have such a huge garden in a place like Skyfire City.
"Princess Siqi can come here and make the humble house shine." Duke Pombert gestured to invite, and Princess Siqi returned the salute and sat down.
Then Duke Pombert faced Wang Rui again, glanced at him, and said, "This little friend must be the person recommended by Kuluntai, right?"
"Yes, in Xia Wangwei, I have seen His Excellency the Duke." Wang Rui replied without humility or arrogance, and Pombel also made an invitation, and Wang Rui sat down indifferently.
It's strange that no one thinks there's anything wrong with Wang Rui's performance for a while, he has the same temperament as this old man known as the "God of Killing", even if it's the first time they meet.
Pombel also glanced at him, and saw that he was indeed not pretending, but he also smiled.
Princess Siqi knew that Wang Rui had something to do, so she took the initiative to ask for him, "Brother Wang, I heard that you are looking for a large teleportation array and are preparing to go to the Qingluan Dynasty?"
"Yes, princess, I originally wanted to find a super-large teleportation array and return directly to Dongxuanzhou, but after learning about it, I learned that the super-large teleportation array is located in the Qingluan Dynasty, and I don't know if it can be activated, but I am not reconciled, and I plan to take a look." Wang Rui glanced at Princess Siqi gratefully.
Hearing the two of them performing double reeds, the three of Pombel's father and son on the side were also talking in low voices, and in the end, it was the second old man Boulder Pombert who took the initiative to speak: "The large teleportation array leading to the Qingluan Dynasty is in the palace, so you want to enter the palace through our Duke's Palace and use the teleportation array?"
"Yes, I don't know if His Excellency the Duke, Lord Wenxiang, and the Second Master can help in the next hand, as long as they can do it, there is no ambiguity." Wang Rui said sincerely, he has always been like this, and hopes to exchange for equal value, unless it is in terms of feelings.
Jushi smiled: "Wang Daoyou can call me Jushi, you and I are both general-level monks, and we are equal friends."
"In that case, I wonder if Brother Boulder is willing to tell me, how can I have the opportunity to use the teleportation array in this palace?" Wang Rui asked further. Fun Cabinet
The boulder twisted his two small beards and said mysteriously, "There is a hidden situation in the palace right now, and it is best not to think about entering the palace in the near future, otherwise you will be killed."
"Oh?" Wang Rui's heart sank when he heard this, it seems that this Tianhuo City is not as prosperous as it seems, but in fact, the clouds are treacherous and murderous.
There are two most likely reasons why there is so much tension in the palace, and it is a murderous disaster. First, the dragon son takes the heir. Second, the emperor was critically ill.
Perhaps, it may be both, then it is very dangerous, and one is not careful, and civil strife is rampant.
Wang Rui sighed that it was really not the right time for him to come, he actually encountered such a sensitive period, there were many king-level powerhouses in the royal city, and he had not yet recovered his cultivation of the Yuan Infant, if he rashly involved in the battle for the heir, it would be dangerous.
After thinking about it, Wang Rui immediately got up and arched his hand and said, "In this case, I won't trouble the second master, the duke, and the Wen Xiang in the next place, and I am a casual cultivator, and I am used to it, and I am smiling."
Then, he said to Princess Siqi, "Take care, princess, there will be a period later!"
After speaking, without waiting for a few people to agree, he left alone, and the speed was very fast, and when a few people wanted to keep him, they had already disappeared.
