Chapter 139 [Strange Man Lu Shangshu]

After a long conversation yesterday, Nangong Wanhua's mood became much better, she originally encountered such a bloody scene on the side of King Zhennan, and she felt extremely disgusted, but the unexpected arrival of family affection quickly improved her mood.

"Is Lu Shangshu next?" Nangong Wanhua lifted the curtain and asked Ge Xian next to her.

"Yes, though, he should be in the court now, and we can wait until the afternoon." Ge Xian looked at the sky, although it was still early, but the time of the upper dynasty in the mortal dynasty was earlier than this, and most officials even had to get up in the middle of the night.

Nangong Wanhua nodded, although his father was attached to the Bliss Sect, it was reasonable to be diligent in his administration, basically a small court meeting every three days, and a big court once a month, and it was impossible for high-ranking officials like Lu Shangshu to be absent.

Speaking of this Lu Shangshu, he has a great background, he is not an ordinary person, he is more than one hundred and fifty years old, in the eyes of mortals, he has long been a land immortal-like figure, he has experienced five dynasties, he is the elder of the elders, he is a very human minister and does not die, breaking through the limit of mortal life, he can be described as a real legend.

In fact, it's not because of how special he is, it's just that behind him stands the first-class sect power of Shenzhou, the Great Wilderness Sect.

The Great Wilderness Sect is probably the strongest sect force in Shenzhou at present, but the advantage is not too big, as long as the Cixin Nunnery behind Dong Guifei and the Punishment Evil Sect behind King Zhennan are united, it will be enough to balance it, these three families and the Extreme Happiness Sect are called the four major sects of Shenzhou, and the Tianmu Sect is only a second-rate force.

However, the overall sect power of Shenzhou is difficult to compare with the sect power of Zhongzhou, in fact, not only Shenzhou, even if you add the sect forces of major states such as Sunrise, Sunset, Mozhou, Haizhou and Selangor, it cannot compete with Zhongzhou, which also establishes that the fairy world takes Zhongzhou as the core, Zhongzhou takes Tianchi as the alliance leader, and the leader is the group of immortals.

The Great Wilderness Sect was originally a hidden sect with high strength, but it could only sink in time, and after hundreds of thousands of years, it finally reached the moment when it was about to wither.

Three hundred years ago, the then sect master Wen Tian led the sect up and down the mountain, and found that the land full of spiritual energy in Shenzhou at this time was occupied by other sects, so he had to start a bloody robbery and fighting.

After a hundred years of fighting, they found that they would die of exhaustion with their own strength, and it would be difficult to achieve the heavy responsibility of the Guangmen Sect, so they decided to use the power of the mortal dynasty.

After much research, they finally chose the country of Lu, which was only a small country two hundred years ago.

On the one hand, the Great Wilderness Sect absorbed a large number of mortals with excellent spiritual roots to enrich its sect; On the other hand, they support mortals who identify with them and take refuge in them as spokesmen for the power of the sect, intervene in the mortal dynasty, and become the masters of the dynasty, if not kings, but also powerful ministers and generals with heavy troops.

With the support of the Great Wilderness Sect, the Lu State began a vigorous expansion war, and after more than fifty years, the territory expanded more than tenfold, and it rose rapidly in Shenzhou, with tens of millions of people at its peak.

The practice of the Great Wilderness Sect shook the sect world, so many powerful sects also began to support the mortal dynasty, and Shenzhou entered the chaotic Warring States Period.

In order to fight against the powerful state of Lu, these countries gradually united and formed an alliance.

In the face of the combined attacks of several countries or even dozens of countries, Lu suffered heavy losses, and at the most dangerous moment, the country was almost lost.

As a sect that protects the country, the sacrifice of the Great Wilderness Sect is not small, and it has a headache.

Later, the Great Wilderness Sect received the advice of a far-sighted minister of the Lu State, and took the initiative to invite the three families of the Bliss Sect, the Compassion Nunnery, and the Punishment of Evil Sect, and reached an agreement to jointly support the Lu State.

With the support of the four major sects, the national strength of the Lu State was rapidly boosted, defeating the alliance army in one fell swoop, and in the following ten years, destroying those countries one by one, and finally achieving hegemony, making other mortal dynasties on the land of Shenzhou respect him as the overlord.

The minister who proposed to unite the other three major sects to jointly support the Lu State and share the national glory in the future is this Lu Shangshu, after achieving hegemony, his prestige has reached its peak, if it were not for him sticking to the name of his courtiers, he would have changed the dynasty long ago, but his power is so great that even if it is a king, it is difficult to check and balance.

However, as Lu Shangshu gets older and older, he abides by his duties as a courtier, and rarely asks about political affairs, but as long as he is in one day, he can almost influence the decision-making of the Great Wilderness Sect in the Lu State, so no one dares to underestimate him.

Ge Xian and Nangong Wanhua took advantage of the early morning to be free, so they went to taste the mortal food, the security of Lucheng is much better than that of Dongyang, although there are some undercurrents surging at the moment, but there are four major sects stationed, as long as they do not move, then Lucheng will be fine.

Around the time of Shen, Nangong Wanhua decided to stop this time and visit Ge Xian privately.

Although the guards were very unhappy, they couldn't help that neither of them was ordinary people, but in the end, the two of them also took a step back, and the two guards secretly followed, waiting outside, and once the situation changed, they would send a code, and at that time, the people who protected her would come from all over the city, although in practice it did not mean much.

Naturally, the two of them did not go through the front door, but came to the back door, and were allowed to enter with the princess's greetings.

With the status of a veteran of the Five Dynasties like Lu Shangshu, ordinary people can't see it at all, even if they are in the royal family, it is not easy to see it, and it depends on Lu Shangshu's mood.

At present, he is mostly recuperating, and only the great court meeting will go to the auditorium every month, and he rarely expresses his opinions, but once it is published, then King Lu will basically agree.

After glaring at the tea, the two people who were waiting in the side hall saw a middle-aged man in a gorgeous brocade robe appear, this person was dignified, quite a celebrity and a gentleman, and was about forty years old.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess, I have missed the distance, forgive my sins, forgive my sins......" As soon as the person spoke, it gave people a feeling of spring breeze, although it was rude, it still made people angry.

Nangong Wanhua's eyes lit up, and she got up and said: "If you can let Lu Shangshu come, how dare this palace blame, and I hope Lord Shangshu will forgive me, this visit to this palace is really a last resort." ”

This man called Lu Shangshu is called Lu Ziang, in fact, he is called "Xiao Shangshu" by the court, belongs to his father's Zuo Erguan, and is currently the most promising representative of the Lu family, and it is rumored that he will be Lu Shangshu's successor and the new spokesperson of the Great Wilderness Sect.

Being able to let such a powerful figure greet it shows that the Lu family still appreciates and respects Nangong Wanhua.

With some politeness, Lu Ziang changed his words and said: "My father's energy is far less than before recently, and it is inconvenient to see guests in the afternoon, if His Highness has anything, you can discuss it with me, how about it?" ”

Seeing that Lu Ziang still politely rejected the two of them's desire to see the old Lu Shangshu, Nangong Wanhua was disappointed, but she still decided to talk to the little Lu Shangshu first.

"Lu Shangshu, what do you think about the matter of Dongyang Underground Ranch?" Nangong Wanhua asked bluntly, she is not a person who mixes with the court, she looks at it more from a fair perspective, compared to Ge Xian, she is more like a cultivator with a pure heart.

Sure enough, Lu Ziang saw that Nangong Wanhua asked so frankly, but it was not easy to answer at once, so he smiled and took a sip of water first, brewed it, and said: "Your Highness, this matter is being discussed in the court, and it will be clear in a few days, and it is better not to discuss it outside the court." ”

Seeing that he began to play officially, Nangong Wanhua was a little impatient, and when she was about to ask further, she was pulled by Ge Xian, and then signaled her not to be impatient.

"Who is this?" Lu Ziang saw Ge Xian when he came in before, and when he came to see him wearing the clothes of an inner servant, he thought he was a eunuch.

"In Xia Ge Xian, the Protector Elder of the Tianmu Sect, the incident in the Dongyang Underground Ranch is related to us, so, is it an opportunity or a flaw that needs to be covered up at the moment, can Lu Shangshu pass the word to the Great Wilderness Sect?" Ge Xian directly explained it from the perspective of the sect, which made it difficult for Lu Ziang to use the excuse of the court to prevaricate.

He looked at Ge Xian and felt that this person was so young but able to serve as a protector of the Dharma, and immediately thought of some previous rumors.

It is said that on the day of the incident in Dongyang Underground Ranch, someone from the Bliss Sect sent back the news that a master rescued the Nine Princesses, could it be this person?

Thinking of this, Lu Ziang's eyes suddenly jumped, and a divine sense was released, shooting towards Ge Xian.

Nangong Wanhua was taken aback, she didn't expect that this little Shangshu was also from the Xianmen, and she made a move quietly, which was really a bit unexpected.

"It's okay!" However, Ge Xian was not surprised, stopped Nangong Wanhua's interference, and also released his divine sense, and bumped into Lu Ziang.

A spiritual shock bloomed, quickly feeding back into the minds of the two, and Ge Xian felt that this little Shangshu's cultivation was not low, at least he had the strength of the late innate stage.

He originally thought that only he had obtained spiritual consciousness in the innate realm and ascended to divine consciousness, but he didn't expect to meet another person today, and it seemed that he had underestimated the people in the spiritual realm too much before.

At the same time, Lu Ziang on the other side was even more shocked in his heart, with Ge Xian's real age, less than a hundred years, it was unheard of to be able to have such a deep and powerful divine sense that was free to be retracted.

His divine consciousness comes from innate and talented, and it is different from those acquired divine consciousness formed through cultivation, the realm is higher, but the ultimate upper limit is not as good as those who are acquired.

Despite this, his divine sense was still strong enough, but now, at the moment when he collided with Ge Xian's divine consciousness, a vast sea seemed to engulf him, so that he even saw the stars in the sea, and he was almost dizzy on the spot, at this moment, he understood that he was far from being this person's opponent.

Seeing that Lu Ziang took the initiative to withdraw his divine consciousness and did not dare to collide with him again, Ge Xian accepted it when he saw that it was good, and quickly withdrew it without any embarrassment.

After some pranayama, Lu Ziang opened his eyes, a feeling of the rest of his life, just now, if Ge Xian disregarded his safety and invaded his mind, he could definitely destroy him and make him a walking corpse, if it really reached that state, it would be better to live than to die.

"Thank you seniors for your mercy." Lu Ziang arched his hand and said, he didn't dare to hold it up anymore at this moment.

"It's okay, you and I are just talking, I don't know if I can meet old Lu Shangshu?" Ge Xian asked.

Lu Ziang smiled bitterly: "Laughing, please come with me, my father only sees one person a day, but today can make an exception." ”

Ge Xian once again felt Nangong Wanhua's adoring eyes, and it was not enough for him to still follow him, without taking the lead.
