Chapter 41: Gamble
In the secret fight between the two families, the Lu family was at a disadvantage. Once secret fights occurred, the Lu family would often suffer losses, and rarely made gains. But this time, Lu Chen injured Wang Xiaotian, and Lu Jinyun certainly felt happy.
Lu Chen not only wounded Wang Xiaotian, but also in front of a large number of practitioners. This is also a huge benefit to the Lu Family's prestige enhancement.
"Pavilion Master Fang, this incident happened in the Treasure Pavilion, I want to ask you, Lu Chen is the responsibility?" Lu Jinyun looked at Fang Ruhai.
"Lu Chen is not responsible." Fang Ruhai narrowed his eyes.
He saw Wang Lieyang not pleasing to his eyes, and of course he would favor the Lu family now, not to mention that what he said was true.
Others are afraid of the Wang family's revenge, but how can they be afraid of the Wang family?
"Lu Jinyun, your Lu Chen from the Lu family injured my son's martial art meridian. This thing can't be so easy." Wang Lieyang was a little frustrated.
"Huh?" Lu Jinyun was slightly taken aback.
Not long after the battle between Lu Chen and Wang Xiaotian, he went to the Treasure Pavilion and knew that Wang Xiaotian was injured. But he didn't know the specifics, and he didn't know that Wang Xiaotian's martial art meridians were injured.
No wonder Wang Lieyang was so angry.
His son's martial arts career was ruined. If Wang Lieyang can bear it, it will be strange!
"I just said it directly, Lu Jinyun, if your Lu family's compensation does not satisfy my Wang family, I will never give up." Wang Lieyang said in a gloomy voice.
Everyone can hear the threat in the words.
Lu Jinyun also pondered.
If the Wang family and the Lu family go to war, Lu Jinyun is not too worried. Although the Lu family is slightly weaker, it is not easy to bully. The Wang family is going to war, and the loss to the Wang family is equally huge, and the first family Song family will be the last one.
What Lu Jinyun worried was that Wang Lieyang secretly started, such as hiring an outside assassin to assassinate Lu Chen, that would be impossible to prevent, unless Lu Chen did not leave the Lu family compound. As long as you leave the family compound, there is danger. Lu Chen's current realm was still too low. If you can step into the innate, you can be safer.
"Wang Lieyang, what kind of compensation do you want?" After Lu Jinyun pondered, he took a step back. If Wang Lieyang is not too much, it is okay to compensate the Wang family with a little resource.
"I want the veins of Lu Family in Dong'an Town!" Wang Lieyang gritted his teeth and said.
"What?" When Lu Jinyun heard Wang Lieyang's words, he stood up on the spot, his eyes sharpened.
Wang Lieyang's condition was too much.
Even Qiao Ruxue and Fang Ruhai frowned.
Because the mineral veins in Dong'an Town are the largest mineral veins in the Lu Family. The ore produced there is almost half of all the ore produced by the Lu family each year, and it is also an important source of resources for the Lu family.
If this mineral vein is given to the Wang Family, then the Lu Family will definitely be greatly injured, and will even be devastated.
Lu Jinyun could not agree to this condition.
"Lu Jinyun, if you don't agree, I promise, Lu Chen will die." Wang Lieyang's expression was grim, and a vicious flame flashed in his eyes.
"Wang Lieyang, do you think I'm afraid of you? Huh, don't talk about it anymore!" Lu Jinyun waved his sleeves fiercely, "City Lord, it's not that I don't give you face, it's that Wang Lieyang is too much, he wants me from the Lu family. Life."
Qiao Ruxue frowned.
She also understood what Lu Jinyun said. If the Lu Family mines in Dong'an Town were willing to let go, they would fall from the position of the three major families in Qingfeng City within a few years.
It is not normal for Lu Jinyun to accept it when it is related to the fate of the family.
"Two Patriarchs, I don't like this!" Qiao Ruxue said thoughtfully.
"Since Lu Chen and Wang Xiaotian are fighting against each other, Wang Xiaotian was injured in the battle. Then, it is better to end this matter with a battle." Qiao Ruxue said.
"Huh?" Lu Jinyun and Wang Lieyang both looked at Qiao Ruxue.
"Hehe, I just suggest a method, accept or not, you decide for yourself."
"The Wang family wants the Dong'an Town mineral vein, then, it is better for your two families to have one person each to fight a game. Every family, put out a bet, the Lu family will use the Dong'an Town mineral vein as a bet, and the Wang family also put out a match. The bet of the winner. The winning party gets the other's bet. I think this is a fairer plan. You will discuss the specifics." Qiao Ruxue said.
After Qiao Ruxue's voice fell, Lu Jinyun and Wang Lieyang calmed down.
Qiao Ruxue's plan is acceptable. Otherwise, this matter will be difficult to solve.
For the Lu family, Lu Chen is too important to be abandoned. With Lu Chen, the Lu Family will definitely grow stronger in the future, and it is just around the corner to surpass the Wang Family.
In fact, the reason why Wang Lieyang opened his mouth to ask for the mineral veins of Dong'an Town of Lujia was not only because Wang Xiaotian's martial art meridian was damaged. Another important reason is that Lu Chen is already a senior pharmacist, and his future is boundless. Wang Lieyang also worried about the growth of the Lu family. The Lu Family has become stronger, and for the Wang Family, there are only disadvantages and no benefits.
"Since the city lord has said so, then I accept it." Wang Lieyang rolled his eyes and finally nodded and said.
"I also accept it." Lu Jinyun also felt that there was no better way.
If you still don't accept it, I am afraid that the consequences are hard to imagine.
"Well, very good." Qiao Ruxue nodded in satisfaction, "Next, let's discuss the specifics."
"I think that in this battle, the two families can each have a cultivator under the age of 30. However, this cultivator does not necessarily have to be a member of the family. As long as they are under 30, anyone You can play." Wang Lieyang stared at Lu Jinyun.
Lu Jinyun frowned.
"It's fair. If my Wang family invites outsiders to fight, you can do the same with your Lu family. Lu Jinyun, would you not refuse?" Wang Lieyang pressed on step by step.
Wang Lieyang has the confidence to say such a condition, and there is a reason. Wang Lieyang thinks he can invite people whom the Lu family can't invite. In this battle, the Wang family will undoubtedly win. As long as it wins, the mineral veins in Dongan Town of the Lu Family will belong to the Wang Family. Moreover, with the city owner testifying, he was not afraid that the Lu family would not admit it.
"I agree, but I also have one condition." Lu Jinyun said thoughtfully.
"What conditions?" Wang Lieyang shouted in a low voice.
"That's right, this time of the match will take place after a year." The condition Lu Jinyun said is also an expedient measure, because he really can't find a suitable person to participate in the match for the time being.
This bet is too big and must be treated with caution. The Lu family cannot afford to lose. However, the gambling battle between the two families cannot be rejected.
"My Lu family’s triennial family competition is just two months later. In these two months, my Lu family has to prepare for the family competition and has no time to deal with other things. And half a year later, the four major colleges recruited practitioners. So, I think it’s more appropriate to have this match a year later.” Lu Jinyun said.
He can only delay as much as possible, and then slowly look for suitable candidates.
Wang Lieyang's breath floated, staring at Lu Jinyun with uncertainty.
One year, Wang Jianeng waited.
If you can win the control of the Dong'an Town mineral vein, it will be of great help to the development of the entire Wang family. For this reason, it is not impossible to wait a year.
Where Wang Lieyang hesitated is, could Lu Jinyun find a suitable candidate to participate in the gambling battle within a year?
"I think that's it!" Qiao Ruxue's eyes turned slightly, and an intoxicating smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. She said very lightly, but now that she said it, it is set the tone. If Wang Lieyang still disagrees, it is not giving her face.
"Since the city lord has spoken, then I agree." Wang Lieyang nodded, facing Lu Jinyun's face with a grim sneer.
"Wang Lieyang, my Lu family's bet is Dongan Town mineral vein, so what is your Wang family's bet?" Lu Jinyun's body pressed forward slightly.
The Wang family must take equal bets.
This point must be stated clearly in front of the city lord, otherwise the Wang family will randomly come up with a waste mine to fill the bill, wouldn't the Lu family regret it?
"Hmph, my Wang family, of course, will take the corresponding bet." Wang Lieyang shouted.
"Wang Lieyang, it is better to say clearly." Lu Jinyun smiled.
Wang Lieyang's eyes condensed, "My Wang family, I will take out the veins of Qingzhu Town and gamble with your Lu family!"
Hearing this, Lu Jinyun's eyes suddenly brightened.
Qiao Ruxue and Fang Ruhai also moved slightly.
The veins of Qingzhu Town, but the rich ore well-known far and wide, are extremely valuable. Speaking of it, the mineral veins in Qingzhu Town may be larger than those in Dong'an Town.
The reason why Wang Lieyang dared to take out the veins of Qingzhu Town was precisely because he believed that the Wang family would win.
Because there is no doubt about the victory, even if the value of Qingzhu Town's vein is slightly higher, it doesn't matter. Of course, in addition to the Qingzhu Town ore veins, the Wang family is also really not good at finding something equivalent to the Dong'an Town ore vein.
"This is the case for the time being. A year later, in my city lord mansion, your two families are engaged in a gambling battle. Okay, the two Patriarchs can go back." Qiao Ruxue is ready to see off the guests .
"Thank you City Lord." Lu Jinyun and Wang Lieyang both bowed their hands and then turned to leave the room.
"Lu Jinyun, one year later, the veins of Dong'an Town belong to me."
After the two of them exited the main entrance of the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Lieyang tilted his eyes and looked towards Lu Jinyun.
"This can be said to be bad, no one can know the future. Perhaps, the veins of Qingzhu Town will belong to my Lu family." Lu Jinyun smiled.
Although there is no bottom in my heart, morale cannot be weakened.
"Let's take a look!" Wang Lieyang waved his sleeves before turning and leaving quickly.
Lu Jinyun looked at Wang Lieyang's back, stared at him for a moment, and then walked in the other direction.
...
The house of the Lu family, in the small courtyard where Lu Chen lives.
"This intermediate martial skill is ten times more difficult than the low-level martial skill!"
"It is really difficult to deeply understand the intermediate martial arts. I practice the breaking wind sword technique very easily, but it is somewhat difficult to practice this cloud penetration sword technique."
Lu Chen, sitting crouched on the bed, watched the Chuanyunjian law, frowning, smiling, and contemplative.
Time, a week passed in the blink of an eye.
"Fortunately, the cloud-piercing sword technique and the breaking wind sword technique have certain similarities, so I can understand it faster."
"What I lack most now is time. I will fight Lu Ying in less than two months." Lu Chen's eyes focused.
Immediately, Lu Chen converged his mind and entered into a state of concentration.
The Universe Mind Acting, and above the Universe Soul Seal, a black figure appeared cleverly, and began to practice the Cloud Piercing Technique.
All of Lu Chen's mind was concentrated on the black figure in the sea of consciousness. Lu Chen tried his best to master every movement of the latter.
He wants to save time as much as possible.
However, the intermediate martial art is indeed more difficult, especially now, it is necessary to refine this martial art.
Fortunately, Lu Chen was already in the realm of marrow washing. If he hadn't stepped into the realm of marrow washing, then Lu Chen would not be able to refine his martial arts.
Another week passed, and the refinement of the cloud-piercing sword technique was finally completed.
