Chapter 56

Just as she was about to leave the back alley, she heard another rush of footsteps running over, and a figure flew through the air and landed in front of her first.

"Ling Ge! How are you!" Gong Shan's refined face was full of worry, "I've only been away for a while, and something like this happened!"

Sun Hou also rushed over later, "Miss Zhuo! I just heard that Lu Zhiang came to trouble you and came here. What happened? How are you, Sun Huai?"

Sun Huaidao: "Second uncle, I'm fine. Miss Zhuo is so powerful. Lu Zhiang is no match for Miss Zhuo."

Ling Ge nodded towards Gong Shan and said to Sun Hou: "I killed a servant of the Lu family and dirty up the Gufang Pavilion. I'm sorry."

Sun Hou looked at the corpses on the ground and said, "It's okay, it's okay. These Lu family members are too arrogant and domineering. Just kill them."

"Miss Zhuo, sit down inside and talk."

After someone cleaned up the back alley, Ling Ge and his party returned to Gufang Pavilion. Sun Hou arranged for them to sit in a private chat room in the backyard.

But even when he picked up the tea cup, Gong Shan's face was still so ugly that water dripped from his face, and the murderous intent in his eyes made him want to kill someone!

Ling Ge thought to himself, in this way, he looks somewhat similar to Gong Jiyi.

After drinking a cup of tea to soothe his shock, Ling Ge first asked: "Manager Sun, do the Lu family always treat anyone with such disdain?"

"Lu Zhiang is the favorite grandson of Lu family leader Lu Kun, so he naturally has the confidence to be arrogant. Although Lu family's eldest son Lu Jingyuan is also strong, he is not so difficult to deal with."

Ling Ge said again: "Then I just killed a member of the Lu family, wouldn't it mean that I would implicate you all?"

"Hahaha, this is nothing," Sun Hou smiled heartily, very confidently, "Miss Zhuo has already thought carefully about the people she killed outside Gufang Pavilion, and not to mention the reputation outside of this pavilion, the people in the pavilion

All the distinguished guests are either rich or noble, so who doesn’t have some background? He, the Lu family, also has to think carefully about it, and he won’t be angry with me."

"Besides, the Lu family is now looking for some good healing elixirs and magic weapons, and Gufang Pavilion's help is indispensable. At this juncture, it is even less likely that a trivial matter will become a big deal."

Gong Shan looked over and asked, "Is this what Lu Zhiang was making a fuss about just now?"

"Yes, they want treasures, rare healing elixirs and magic weapons. Master Shan knows that there are already few such magic weapons, and now they are in a hurry to get them. I found a few in the warehouse, but they were not satisfied.

"

"Do you know who they are looking for these things for?"

Sun Hou shook his head, "I didn't ask."

Gong Shan stopped talking, silently tapping the tea cup with his slender index finger, and narrowed his clean eyes slightly.

Ling Ge's heart moved and asked: "Is this matter very important?"

"It's hard to say," Gong Shan frowned slightly, "I just received the news that the Lu family has also asked all the major families to find healing elixirs and magical artifacts that are above treasure."

"If my prediction is correct, since Lu Zhiang has found this place, he will definitely not let go of gambling houses, black markets and other places."

After saying this, Sun Hou also took notice, "I haven't seen them make such a big move in the past few years. It seems that what happened this time is really unusual."

"I don't know, but since Lu Zhiang has found Gufangge, I'm afraid he won't give up if he doesn't get what he wants." Gong Shan put down the tea cup.

"Steward Sun, you'd better be prepared, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful in the next period."

Sun Hou nodded cautiously, "Thank you, Master Shan, for reminding me."

The two of them said goodbye and were about to go back. Sun Huai walked outside the door and said to Ling Ge: "Miss Zhuo, if you can use me anywhere, just give me your orders. I can still run errands!"

Ling Ge patted his shoulder lightly and got into the carriage without saying anything.

As soon as the carriage drove out of Gufang Pavilion, Ling Ge immediately asked Gong Shandao: "Have you guessed something before you finished what you just said?"

Gong Shan looked over in surprise, once again surprised by Ling Ge's agility.

Boss Gong said she was extremely smart, but he really wasn't exaggerating!

"It's not important news - my informant in the Lu family spread the news that an envoy from the Qianshan Sect has arrived."

"It is said that the elixir weapon this time was found for a big shot."

Ling Ge raised his eyebrows, "What big shot? Is he from the Qianshan Sect?"

Gong Shan shook his head and said: "The elders of Qianshan Sect are all the top masters in Shengzhou Continent. Who can beat them so seriously?"

"Other than the Qianshan Sect, who else is worthy of them searching for magic weapons and paying homage to them?"

"So this is very strange."

Ling Ge crossed his legs and slouched up, "Since the person Qianshan Sect cares about is dying, it's a good thing. Let's just ignore it."

Gong Shan shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter to us, but for many people, it may be another disaster."

"Huh?" Ling Ge looked over strangely.

I saw Gong Shan opening the curtain and looking out the window at the beggars nesting in the corner and on the roadside, waiting for some food from the passing kindhearted people. Everyone's face was deathly silent, as if they had lost their souls.

"Ling Ge, didn't you ask before why there are so many beggars in Qutong City? Now I will tell you that it is because of the layer upon layer of exploitation in the entire Lindan Kingdom."

"Every few years, the Qianshan Sect would ask all the countries that depended on it to donate some magic weapons. The imperial court would ask for it from aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families would ask for it from the squires. The squires would plunder ordinary people's money, plunder them openly, and no one would bother to complain to the Yamen.

.”

"So almost every year, a new group of people lose their thatched houses and land and become poor homeless people."

"If they weren't really afraid that no one would be able to farm, weave, or mine for spiritual stones, they would probably plunder even more!"

"The things they want this time are of better quality, which means more people will raise money to buy better magic weapons to please the Qianshan Sect. How many more beggars will there be next year?"

After hearing this, Ling Ge also stood up and looked outside the curtain, "These are their own people and their own country. Why would the imperial family allow such chaos? Don't you know that if it goes on for a long time, the country's strength will also weaken?"

Gong Shan sneered, "Oh, in the eyes of cultivators, ordinary people are endless ants. They can bully them as much as they want. What can they do? Can they still defeat cultivators?"

Just like Lu Zhiang yesterday.

"Gong Shan, you are so powerful, is there any way to change this situation?"

Gong Shan turned to look at her, his eyes like daggers, "No matter how powerful I am, can I still be more powerful than the emperor and the Lu family in Lindan Kingdom?"

"Besides, the root cause of all this trouble is the Qianshan Sect! If we don't eradicate them, even if this Lu family is destroyed, a second Lu family will rise again!"

"Ling Ge, this is the fundamental reason why our brothers want to deal with Qianshan Sect."



Lu's backyard.

Lu Zhiang took an ordinary healing pill, but still felt pain everywhere in his body. He couldn't help but curse a few times: "Damn stinky bitch! I will definitely catch you next time and make you look good!"

The followers below each took the elixir sideways, and looked at each other after hearing this.

With the second master’s cultivation, there is no way he can be caught!

"Second Master, Second Master..." A follower ran in from outside, it was the man who had stayed in Gufang Pavilion to see the treasure.

"Why are you back first? I've been looking for you for a long time, but that Sun Hou can't come up with anything good at all... Oops!"

Lu Zhiang happened to vent his evil fire on him and kicked him out of the room.

"You still know how to come back! Your father was almost bullied to death!"

"Ah!" The attendant endured the pain and got up, "Who else dares to bully our master? Who is blind? Go and help the master vent his anger!"

"You are not worthy of practicing for anyone these days! Go and find out! Find out who the female guest is in Gufang Pavilion today. I want to know all her origins, go and find out!"

"Yes, yes." The attendant did not dare to delay and ran out quickly.

But not long after he ran out, he turned around and ran back.

"Master..."

"If you fart quickly, let it go!"

"The master of the house invites you to go, saying that a messenger has arrived."

Yu Huduan was sitting in the hall. On his right was the head of the family, Lu Kun, and on his left was Lu Jingyuan, the eldest son of the Lu family. Both of them had polite smiles on their faces and were indescribably attentive.

He secretly touched a ring in his sleeve, which was just given by Lu Kun to comfort him after a long journey.

Yu Hu was very satisfied. The small countries outside were sensible, not only obedient but also generous. Unlike those big countries that were close to Qianshan Sect, they didn't take his humble disciples seriously at all!

It's no wonder that he spent so much time and effort to finally get this lucrative job...

Thinking of this, Yu Hu's smile became much warmer, "Master Lu, it seems that you are lucky. Although the sect has told many places that it is looking for top-level elixirs and magic weapons, one of them is asking for it by name.

Found it in Qutong City."

"As long as such a thing is found, the sect master and the elders will certainly give you a credit."

"Oh?" Lu Kun and Lu Jingyuan looked at each other, both of them were a little surprised.

"I wonder what kind of treasure it is?" Lu Jingyuan asked first.

"It's a piece of jade. I heard it belonged to the Li family in Qutong City a long time ago. It's the same Li family that has been refining elixirs for generations."

"Oh," Lu Jingyuan responded quickly, "I know that family, I can take the envoy there now."

Lu Kun glanced at him, as if laughing at his impatience, "Your Majesty has just arrived, so it's okay to rest for a while. Here comes someone! Pour your Majesty another cup of tea!"

Lu Jingyuan naturally knew what Lu Kun was planning, didn't he just want to leave this good job to Lu Zhiang?

"Master, there is an urgent situation in the sect, and the burden on your envoy must be very heavy. Go find him as soon as possible to avoid a long night and many dreams."

"How can we not even take a break for this moment? In this Lindan country, do we, the Lu family, have to rush to find someone?"

"The head of the family..."

The two of them were fighting with each other when they heard footsteps outside. Someone came in and saluted: "Grandpa, my grandson is here."

It was Lu Zhiang.

Lu Jingyuan lowered his head to drink tea without saying a word. He secretly gritted his teeth and could only swallow it hard.

Lu Kun said with a smile: "Zhiang, come quickly, I have seen the respected envoy of Qianshan Sect, Senior Yu."

"I've met Ambassador Yu." Lu Zhiang saluted again, then raised his head and looked up.

I saw a man in blue robes and jade crown sitting next to Lu Kun. He was in his thirties or forties, with an ordinary appearance and a pair of inverted triangular eyes. He didn't look easy to mess with.
