"I shouldn't actually be involved in this matter!" Lu Chen said indifferently, he was an idler, and what happened in Wushuang City had nothing to do with him in the first place, and it was only because he had no intention of obtaining the identity of the city lord Chenglong's fast son-in-law that he was forced to participate in these disputes.
When Tang Yun heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up: "It seems that Brother Lu has an answer in his heart, and the little woman is willing to hear about it!"
"I think you should know that so many things have happened today, there must be someone behind the scenes! When the city lord is seriously ill, someone has just blatantly taken you hostage, and the other party obviously wants to make things difficult for the city lord and achieve some ulterior purpose. Also, when I talked to those people before, I got some clues. Lu Chen took a sip of tea lightly and said lightly.
"What clues!" Tang Yun wondered.
Lu Chen said: "As far as I know, these people should already know that the city lord is now seriously ill and unable to take charge of Wushuang City, so they took the opportunity to plot against you, if they are not mistaken, they want to cause turmoil in the county city and take the opportunity to seize control of Wushuang City." ”
Tang Yun's face changed slightly: "But I have completely blocked the news, and it is impossible for outsiders to know what happened to the City Lord's Mansion!"
The corners of Lu Chen's mouth flashed with inexplicable meaning, and he lightly lit some water in the teacup, and then wrote a word with tea on the tea table, rape.
This clearly means that there is a mole in the city lord's mansion! Only this explanation can explain the cause of what happened tonight.
Could it be that Lu Chen has already noticed that he already has some eyebrows about the identity of this person hidden behind the scenes.
Tang Yun sighed lightly: "I have long been suspicious of this, but I don't know who is behind it, so I haven't been investigating the people around me." The other party is very hidden, and I'm also worried about this. ”
"There are some things that you don't need to check, you can find out the same!" Lu Chen smiled indifferently.
Tang Yun's eyes were slightly stunned, his expression gradually became solemn, and he was even a little puzzled.
"Are you sure you can find out who the other person is?"
Lu Chen nodded with a smile: "Of course!"
"Then please help me!" Tang Yun stared at Lu Chen, her beautiful eyes flashing with a hasty light.
Lu Chen picked up the teacup, blew the hot air gently, and said slowly: "Why, not to mention the hard work, what good is it for me to risk my life!" As long as the brain is not stupid, you know that Wushuang City is in chaos now, and it is in the time when the city lord is seriously ill, it can be said that a crisis is brewing in the dark. No one would risk their lives to do the work of losing their heads, unless there is a sufficiently attractive interest.
"Brother Lu, if you have any requirements, just mention it!" Tang Yun listened, and then showed a shallow smile, this person really has other plans. Now is also the time to employ people, Tang Yun, a weak woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, even if she has some say in the City Lord's Mansion, she has enough courage, but she still lacks a capable person under her hands. Lu Chen's appearance made her quickly realize that she needed such a person around her.
Lu Chen put down the teacup, looked at Tang Yun squarely, and said, "I want to join the Liuyun Sword Sect, I hope that when the city lord recovers, he will write a letter of recommendation for me!"
"What, you want to join the Liuyun Sword Sect, with your talent and strength, it's not easy, why do you need my father to recommend it on your behalf!" Tang Yun was surprised at first, and then a little puzzled.
Lu Chen smiled indifferently: "Of course there are some differences, you can just help me arrange these, and leave the rest to me!"
"A word is a certainty!" I don't know why, after seeing that Lu Chen was willing to help, Tang Yun was inexplicably relieved.
Lu Chen instructed again: "Wushuang City is now mixed with fish and dragons, and the undercurrent is surging, you had better send someone to strengthen the defense, now the city lord's mansion is up and down, you are the only backbone, you fall, this Wushuang City is just afraid that it will be over! Tomorrow I will go to see the city lord's condition, it should not be as bad as I imagined." ”
"Thank you!" Hearing that the other party cared about him so much, Tang Yun couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.
Lu Chen saw the other party staring at him, and immediately teased: "You just believe in me like that!"
Tang Yun was stunned for a moment, and laughed softly: "Of course, you saved me, how could it be impossible to harm me for no reason!"
"But you have to be careful, the people who deal with you are not small, after all, they can make a congenital powerhouse fall, harass the City Lord's Mansion many times, and send people to ambush us many times, this kind of trick is not something that ordinary forces can do!"
With Lu Chen's reminder, Tang Yun's heart, which was originally relieved, sank again, and his expression became a little haggard. She hated, hated that she was not a man, hated that she was not a warrior, she could carry the banner of the city lord, otherwise, how could she be bullied by some insidious villains.
Lu Chen was right, Wushuang City was subordinate to the territory of the Liuyun Sword Sect, and with an innate powerhouse in charge, it could be described as impregnable. Generally speaking, how dare Xiao Xiao wrestle with the Liuyun Sword Sect, one of the eight major sects, except for the White Tiger Tower and Tsing Yi Gate, which have had friction with them in recent years, it is estimated that no one has the courage and confidence.
In fact, it can also be seen from here that the luck of the Liuyun Sword Sect has obviously begun to decline in the past few years, otherwise, an important county city like Wushuang City would not be coveted by some small sects.
After Tang Yun left, Lu Chen had been drinking tea and pondering: "These guys are not simple, they actually sent two masters of the day after tomorrow to assassinate the city lord's daughter overnight, if it weren't for my strength being strong enough, I was afraid that I would have been poisoned.
"After all, I am also a member of the Liuyun Sword Sect, and I can't watch the city that my ancestors painstakingly managed be taken away like this!"
"Father, you have a spirit in the sky, you must open your eyes and watch, the child Ling Feng will definitely protect the Peerless City well, and do his best to protect these people who once loved you. The child has also been working hard, fighting for energy, and will not waste his time in a muddy and dusty manner like before. One day, the name of the Peerless Sword Saint will be spread all over the world!" Lu Chen slammed the teacup on the tea table, his eyes bursting with a determined light.
Wushuang City is his home, and no one can mess around here and ruin the best memories of his youth. Not to mention, he would watch the people born and raised in this kind of city become the target of oppression by other forces.
Some things have happened for years, but they happened as if they were yesterday.
Lu Chen's father, Lu Zhenxuan, died, and it was in this incomparably familiar city lord's mansion that he was killed by the most notorious and cruel 'Seven Killings' organization on the mainland, and even exterminated.
In Lu Chen's heart, his father Lu Zhenxuan has always been an invincible existence, the patron saint of Wushuang City, the outer gate elder of the Liuyun Sword Sect, and the ninth-ranked innate powerhouse on the Fengyun List, famous all over the world.
Since he was a child, he has lived in such a carefree environment, with his father as a backer and Liuyun Sword Sect as a background, he is an existence like an earth emperor, and he can do whatever he wants in Wushuang City, except for killing people and setting fires, because if anything happens, there is his omnipotent father behind him.
Such a gentleman, who has been lingering in the brothel of the Qinglou all the year round, has ushered in the disaster of extinction at the most enjoyable and joyful moment in his life, and he can't imagine what a heavy blow this is to him.
Sometimes, people's fate is like a leaf drifting in the rapids, and no one knows where fate will push you.
In this life, Lu Chen will never forget that on that night of the torrential rain, in the city lord's mansion, blood flowed all over the ground, corpses were everywhere, and the aura of killing enveloped the entire mansion.
The invincible existence in his mind was nailed alive on the tower, and he was allowed to be drenched in the torrential rain and whipped by the wind.
The rain was stained red with blood.
At that moment, it was as if the sky had fallen, the earth had fallen, and fate had fallen into boundless darkness.
He looked up at the night sky with thunderstorms, helpless like an abandoned wild dog, lingering in this cold, lonely world.
From the son of the once infinite scenery, he fell into a worthless quagmire overnight, which was a heavy blow that ordinary people could not bear.
At that time, Lu Lingfeng's mentality was suddenly chaotic, he hated, hated himself for being a waste, a gentleman who would only be blessed by the remnants of his ancestors. When his father needed him the most, he could only watch his loved ones assassinated to death, and the powerlessness brought by that despair almost tore his heart apart.
What's ridiculous is that he usually thinks that he has learned a little bit of three-legged cat kung fu and thinks that the world is invincible and no one dares to mess with him. However, at the most critical moment of the family, he could only cry and cry like an immature child, and regretted it, which is really a sad story.
The woman he likes, Li Mengjun is right, he is a self-righteous gentleman who does not learn and has no skills, the second ancestor. Leaving his father and family, he is a poor worm that is spurned by all people.
If you work hard and fight a little harder, things won't turn out like this.
In three years, a gentleman who can only eat, drink and have fun has been transformed into a mature and stable powerful warrior, who knows how much suffering he has endured, how much blood he has left behind, and how much pressure of revenge he has borne during these times.
For more than a thousand days and nights of blood and sweat, he worked hard to cultivate and improve himself, and there was only one motivation that could make him burst out of this hard work, and that was revenge.
Hatred has become his spiritual food, and it has supported him until now.
The emperor lives up to his wishes, Lu Chen's piece of jade has been carefully carved for many years, and finally completed the gorgeous transformation in his life, but unfortunately, his father, who wants to see all this the most, is gone, and he can no longer enjoy his father's love and care for him.
At that time, Lu Zhenxuan had always had great expectations for Lu Lingfeng, and always thought that he had a descendant who would inherit the name of 'Peerless Sword Saint'.
After all, what father doesn't want his son to become a Chan, doesn't want his child to get ahead and shine on the lintel.
