Chapter 2268 It’s a misunderstanding
After the three chatted for a while, Lu Li asked Yue Qi to leave.
Yue Qi originally wanted to follow Lu Li out of Wanxiang Realm, but Lu Li was not going to take him this time, because there were not many strong people in Green Bamboo Realm now. If something happened, those low-cultivation clansmen would be unable to deal with it.
Afterwards, after Lu Li and Jiang Fan gave a few instructions, the two left Green Bamboo Realm together and headed straight for Wanxiang Realm.
Baiguan Mountain, Lu Family.
This is a family of weapon refiners with a long history, and their ancestors have been insisting on the path of weapon refinement.
And after countless years of inheritance and research.
The Lu family's attainments in weapon refinement have reached an unfathomable level.
Let alone Yuzhu Fairyland, even in the entire fairy world, except for the seven major sects, I am afraid that there is no other family of weapon refiners with an ancient heritage like the Lu family.
But it is such a family, which should have been thriving in other human fairylands. But for some reason, they chose to hide in Yuzhu Fairyland, a place where aliens are entrenched.
The Lu family is not actually very big. Apart from the people hired from outside, the blood descendants of the family only add up to 700 to 800 people. Compared with an ancient family, this number of descendants is really sparse.
However, the strength of the Lu family is not weak. As the saying goes, the quality of soldiers is not the number. The Lu family has four immortal masters.
It is precisely because of this that the Lu family can stand firm in this place where foreign races rise up, and sit on the huge family wealth without being coveted by others. Outsiders who want to refine treasures can only follow the rules of the Lu family.
Baiguan Mountain is located in the eastern part of Wanxiang Realm.
Here, the mountains are undulating, the valleys are crisscrossed, and the outer area is surrounded by a circle of light purple miasma.
The Lu family is located in the central area of this circle of miasma walls.
Only a canyon entrance in the south can enter Baiguan Mountain safely without triggering the formation.
Early that morning, a rainbow of light flashed from the east and landed outside the canyon, alarming the guards at the entrance of the valley.
"Two seniors, why are you here?" The guards' cultivation was not very high, but their demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant.
"I'm here to find a guy named Lu Xing, who asked me to come over as a guest." Lu Li smiled and walked down from the lotus platform. When Jiang Fan also landed, he waved his hand and collected the Huanyue Snow Lotus.
"Lu Xing? Do you know our young master?" The guard was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Of course I know him, otherwise why would I come here to find him." Lu Li said patiently.
"Is that so? Then senior, please wait a moment, I will pass the message first and ask clearly, how about that?"
"No problem." Lu Li was not in a hurry, and looked around and stared at the cliff in front of him.
Seeing this, the guard also took out the token and began to report.
It is more troublesome to pass the message to the Lu family. An outer gate guard like him is not qualified to contact the head of the family directly. He needs to contact the internal sentry tower, and then the sentry tower will convey the message to the head of the family.
After a while of busy work, the guard told Lu Li helplessly that their young master was not in Baiguan Mountain at the moment, and no one knew where he went.
Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but frowned secretly. If there was no Lu Xing, this matter would be a little difficult to handle.
At this moment, the guard's sound transmission talisman flashed again.
The guard was a little surprised and said: "This senior, the head of the family said that he asked you to wait and he will be here soon."
"Okay." Lu Li saw that there was a turn for the better, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.
While the two were waiting, the purple mist in the canyon in front of them suddenly surged, and a stream of light shot out from it.
A closer look showed that it was a tall and strong middle-aged man in a yellow robe about fifty years old.
As soon as this person landed, another stream of light followed, revealing a short and fat red-faced old man.
The two men had gloomy faces and released their aura, directly knocking the guard away.
"What do you mean, both of you?" Lu Li's robe fluttered and his brows furrowed.
"Hmph!" Seeing this, Jiang Fan also snorted coldly, and his aura was released. In an instant, the ground was covered with flying sand and rocks, and the momentum was terrifying.
"Looking for death!" Seeing this, the short and fat red-faced old man waved his sleeves and was about to attack Jiang Fan.
"Stop!" But at the critical moment, the tall and majestic middle-aged man in yellow robe retracted his aura and interrupted the red-faced old man with a thunderous voice.
The red-faced old man frowned and looked at the yellow-robed middle-aged man in confusion.
The yellow-robed middle-aged man ignored him, but looked at Lu Li with a serious expression and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you!"
Hearing this,
Lu Li smiled immediately, and said with a sneer on his face: "You don't know who I am, so you are so aggressive and domineering?"
The yellow-robed middle-aged man's expression froze, "Please forgive me, it seems that all this is a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding? You'd better make it clear, otherwise I can't swallow this breath." Lu Li narrowed his eyes.
"Hmph! What if you don't make it clear? You dare to make plans for my Lu family, you really don't know how to live or die!" The red-faced old man shouted angrily.
"How dare you be so presumptuous!" Jiang Fan's momentum was boosted, and the sky and the earth changed color, and rolling thunder surrounded him.
"Stop it!"
The yellow-robed middle-aged man saw this and his momentum sank. He roared like thunder again, interrupting the confrontation between the two.
Then he looked at the red-faced old man and said: "Second Elder, there is indeed a misunderstanding here. I checked with the smelling technique. They are not the illusions of that guy last time."
"Really not?" Hearing this, the red-faced old man was stunned.
"No doubt about it. Although that guy's ability to change is very amazing, it can't be hidden from my smelling technique. There is no breath of that person on either of them." The middle-aged man in yellow robe shook his head and restrained his momentum, becoming calm.
"Uh..." The red-faced old man smiled awkwardly and quickly restrained his momentum. But it was impossible for him to apologize.
"My two Taoist friends, I wonder why you are here?" Seeing this, the middle-aged man in yellow robe clasped his fists to Lu Li.
"Your Excellency seems to have not explained clearly, what is going on?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows.
"Hey! This story started half a year ago. Half a year ago, several rare mineral veins of our Lu family were robbed by thieves one after another, causing our Lu family to suffer heavy losses, but we could never find the thief's trace.
Until we came up with a way to use a mineral vein as bait, we finally lured him out.
But what I didn't expect was that guy was amazing. With the help of three immortal masters of our Lu family, he successfully kidnapped my son.
And he said that we should prepare the ransom for the Lu family, and he would come to collect it in half a year, otherwise he would kill my son.
Isn't it a coincidence that it's almost half a year now, so..."
The middle-aged man in yellow robe looked helpless, and he could not hide a trace of worry.
After hearing this, Lu Li finally understood why the two men were in such a formation.
His expression eased slightly and he said, "Could it be that you are the head of the Lu family?"
The middle-aged man in yellow robe nodded gently and said, "Yes, I am the current head of the Lu family, Lu Jintang."
"I see. Then may I ask, who is the son that Fellow Daoist Jintang mentioned?" After hearing that this person was the head of the Lu family, Lu Li couldn't help but frowned secretly.
"I only have one son, that is Lu Xing in your mouth. So when I learned that someone outside mentioned my son's name, I was so alert. It was really offensive!" Lu Jintang sighed and said, bowing to Lu Li to apologize.
Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be like this. Just resolve the misunderstanding."
"However, I can't figure it out. Since the other party wants a ransom, can't you just be ready?"
"Why do you have to put on such a formation, as if you want to take down the other party?"
