Chapter 62: Return to the Rightful Owner
With Murong Jingyi's ever-expanding ambitions, Murong Mansion's style of acting became more and more domineering and ruthless, not only the sects near Shangwu City, but even the Star Sect, which had not had much intersection with Murong Mansion since its establishment, could not escape the end of being ruled.
Liu Sibo knew that the purpose of Murong Jingyi's birthday banquet ten years ago was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface, but he never imagined that it would end like that after he sent Wu Yuxuan and several disciples to the banquet that day.
On that day ten years ago, Murong Mansion sent someone to tell him that five of his disciples had been killed by a fish-headed monster on their way to Shangwu City.
Wu Yuxuan, the deputy sect master, suddenly went crazy for some reason and secretly attacked Murong Jingyi, and finally blew himself up and died.
After the subordinates of Murong Mansion finished speaking, they glanced at Liu Sibo with a blank face, and then turned to leave, leaving Liu Sibo alone to hold back the blood that wanted to spurt out of his heart and slump on the chair.
However, the matter was far from over, Murong Bin asked Xingluomen to give an explanation on the grounds that Wu Yuxuan's sneak attack on Murong Jingyi on the day of the birthday banquet caused the latter's qi sea to be injured and his cultivation was damaged.
Liu Sibo couldn't see that Murong Bin said that he wanted an explanation, but in fact, he wanted Xingluomen to return to Murong Mansion for this reason.
No matter what the reason for Wu Yuxuan's sudden madness, it is an indisputable fact that he seriously injured Murong Jingyi with one palm, not to mention that the strength of Xingluomen is far inferior to that of Murong Mansion, Liu Sibo can only be full of sadness and shame in his heart, and said to Murong Bin on the spot that Xingluomen is willing to surrender to Murong Mansion.
After hearing Liu Sibo's promise, Murong Bin laughed arrogantly, "Okay! Since the Star Sect is willing to submit to Murong Mansion, then we will be a family in the future, and the sneak attack on the Murong City Lord has also passed, so it should not have happened." ”
Although Liu Sibo was deeply ashamed in his heart, he still lowered his head and praised Murong Bin, "Thank you........ Excellency. ”
Liu Sibo, who has been sitting in the position of "door master" for decades, has long changed his impulsive problem, and has become cautious and forward-looking.
When the "senior brother" was the master of the door, was the burden and pressure in his heart so heavy.
If he had suffered the same humiliation as Murong Mansion according to his temper when he first became the master of the sect, he would have fought to the death with them and died together.
But now Liu Sibo won't, because at this moment in his heart, it is the most important thing to let the Star Sect continue, and to let the disciples in the sect survive, as for the insult, let it go.
At this time, a disciple in the door walked quickly to the inner hall and reported, "Door master, the second elder of Xuanqing Sect and his disciple Ming Fan, greet." ”
"Oh, the second elder of Xuanqingmen?" Although Liu Sibo had seen the four elders of Xuanqingmen when he was young, he was definitely not familiar, not even acquaintance, and Xuanqingmen had ignored the affairs of the rivers and lakes for a long time, and had no contact with Xingluomen, so why did he suddenly visit for no reason?
Although he had doubts in his heart, whether it was for the strength and status of the Xuanqing Sect or the age of the elders, Liu Sibo couldn't slack off, so he hurriedly ordered, "Invite them into the living room to drink tea." ”
Liu Sibo tidied up his clothes a little and came to the living room, and saluted, "The seniors came from afar, and I couldn't meet you in time, please forgive me." ”
Although the second elder is much older than Liu Sibo, no matter what, the person in front of him is also the master of the sect, and the second elder can't put on a senior shelf too much, so he got up and replied, "The lord of the Liu Sect is polite, it's us who came abruptly." ”
"The senior is serious, please take a seat. ”
After a few sips of tea, Liu Sibo asked bluntly, "I don't know what happened to my predecessors on this trip?"
The second elder didn't like to beat around the bush either, and said directly, "I'm here today to return the Star Romanmon's treasures. ”
"Treasures?" Liu Sibo wondered, how could there be any treasures in the Star Sect? There are a lot of silver and silver, although the strength and scale of the sect are developing relatively slowly, but the glass jewelry business in the door is booming.
In that sentence, the poor have money left, and it is Xingluomon.
"I don't know what the treasure in the mouth of the predecessor is?" Liu Sibo picked up the teacup and took a sip and asked.
"The Heavenly Compass. ”
The teacup in Liu Sibo's hand fell to the ground, his expression was like a lightning strike, and his tone was incredulous, "Front..... What did you say, senior?!"
The Second Elder had already expected Liu Sibo's reaction, after all, this Heavenly Compass had been lost when Fu Tianfeng was still alive.
"Lord Liumen heard it right, the treasure I said is exactly the Heavenly Compass. ”
After saying that, the second elder took out the Heavenly Compass and handed it to Liu Sibo.
Liu Sibo held the compass in his hand and held it tightly in despair, for fear that it would disappear from front of him in the next second.
The trembling hand gently stroked the treasure in his hand, and looked at every place and inch of the compass seriously, although he had only seen the Tianyuan compass once when he was young, Liu Sibo could be sure that the compass in front of him was indeed the treasure of Xingluomen, the heirloom of the ancestor of the Jianpai Tianfeng, the Tianyuan compass!
Tears fell on the compass from Liu Sibo's eyes, and Liu Sibo cried sadly, "Master, senior brother, the Tianyuan compass is back, back to the hands of our Star Luomen, you have a spirit in the sky, you should be relieved!"
Liu Sibo wiped his tears, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed, "Two of you, please accept my Liu Sibo!"
Ming Fan hurriedly hugged him, "The Lord of the Willow Gate must not let it go! This thing is originally owned by the Star Sect, we just return the thing to its original place." ”
Because Liu Sibo blocked his vision when he knelt, the three people present couldn't see it, and the tears that Liu Sibo fell were slowly absorbed by the Tianyuan compass in his hand.
"Shaoxia, you don't know the importance of this thing to our Star Roman, today you and your predecessors will return this thing, even if Liu Sibo dies, this kindness will not be repaid. Liu Sibo excitedly held Ming Fan's hand and said, "From today on, as long as Xuanqingmen has any orders, the Xingluo Gate will definitely obey!"
The second elder replied, "The master of the door is serious!"
"Not heavy, not heavy. By the way, I wonder where you two found this Heavenly Compass?"
The second elder informed Liu Sibo of what happened to him and Ming Fan in the black mist, along with the reason for the loss of the Heavenly Compass.
After listening to the second elder's narration, Liu Sibo suddenly understood, "So that's the case, after being reminded by the second elder, I also remembered that there were indeed three senior brothers who went out of town to wander around and never came back, presumably after telling the compass, they were killed by that gangster." ”
calmed down his excitement, Liu Sibo thanked the two again, "Seniors, young heroes, this favor Liu Sibo will be repaid." ”
Ming Fan raised his hand and said, "It's just a matter of doing what you should do, but the door master must take good care of this thing, don't lose it." ”
"I understand, in order not to attract the prying eyes of the villains, I decided not to spread the news of the return of the Heavenly Compass to my own sect. Liu Sibo knew that if this matter was known to the people of Murong Mansion, they would definitely come to ask for it.
"It's so good, and the second elder and I won't make a public announcement about this matter. Ming Fan assured Liu Sibo.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"Uh...... The second elder of the Liumen Sect ..... who had not spoken, and suddenly said, "Actually..... I've got a little favor I'd like to ask you to help me. ”
Liu Sibo hurriedly said: "If the seniors need me, just say it!"
Ming Fan secretly said in his heart, "I'll go, the second elder won't want to take this opportunity to take advantage of the master of the Willow Sect." ”
The second elder smacked his lips and said in a slightly embarrassed tone,
"I remember that your sect has an alchemy furnace in your hand. ”
