Chapter 2277: The Lu Family Surrenders

In front of the earthen house with smoke rising from the kitchen stove, an old man wearing rough clothes with his trousers rolled up was holding an earthen bowl with a chipped mouth and taking a big gulp of rice.

Seeing Lu Li and his party coming over, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then continued to work hard.

Two pieces of bacon were exposed on the white rice. He was probably worried about being snatched away, so before Lu Li and his party walked into the yard, he suddenly dug the two pieces of bacon into his mouth.

"Greetings to our ancestors." Lu Jintang walked in front and saluted the old man from a distance.

"Greetings to the ancestor!"

Lu Shangyang and several other elders, as well as Lu Xing's siblings, also bowed to pay homage.

Only Lu Li, Jiang Fan, and Yin Wulu stood there, looking at the old farmer with curiosity.

His edges seemed to have been smoothed by time, and he looked like an ordinary old farmer, plain and simple.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you not to come and disturb me if you have nothing to do?" The old man's eyes swept over the people in Lu Jintang, and then fixed on Lu Li, looking slightly surprised.

"It is related to the fate of the family. I have no choice but to come here to disturb you. I hope you will forgive me, ancestor." Lu Jintang bowed again.

"The fate of the family? Did the seven major sects start forcibly recruiting troops so soon?" The old farmer frowned secretly.

"Not really, but..." Lu Jintang said, looking back at Lu Li, "It's this fellow Taoist who has something to discuss with you, old man."

"Boy Lu Li, I'm disturbing the senior's cultivation." Seeing this, Lu Li also walked up from behind and gave the old man a slight clasped fist.

Land from?

Hearing this, Lu Jintang couldn't help but cast a questioning look at his son.

"Maybe I used a false name before." Lu Xing twitched the corners of his mouth and whispered.

"Oh, that's it." Lu Jintang nodded and turned his attention back to his ancestor.

"I don't dare take the word "senior" seriously. I should call you "senior" instead, right?" The old farmer looked at Lu Li intently and said with a half-smile.

"Ahem, senior is countless times older than me, so he deserves this title." Lu Li grinned.

What.

Is this guy more powerful than the ancestor?

After hearing Lu Li's words, Lu Jintang and others couldn't help but look shocked.

They thought Lu Li was just a peak Immortal Master.

Now it seems that he is actually a powerful pseudo-emperor? And it seems that he has survived more disasters than his ancestors.

"Are you countless times older? You are deliberately trying to outsmart me!" The old farmer glared, as if you didn't know how to speak.

"No, no, senior has misunderstood. I respect the elderly the most, and I have no intention of being eliminated." Seeing the misunderstanding, Lu Li quickly explained.

"That's all!"

"You should call me Taoist friend. If you call me senior, I always feel that you are deliberately trying to eliminate me."

"Also, if you have any questions for me, just tell me directly and don't beat around the bush. I hate guessing other people's thoughts!"

The old farmer waved his hands and stood up from the stool with his rice bowl in hand as he spoke.

"Okay, since fellow Taoist said so, I won't beat around the bush anymore. Here's the thing..."

Lu Li saw that this person had a straight-forward character, and he also didn't waste any nonsense and spoke his thoughts truthfully.

The old farmer sometimes frowned, sometimes raised his eyebrows, sometimes looked shocked, but at the end he snorted coldly and said displeasedly.

"Hmph! Your Excellency, your abacus is really good. You actually want us, an ancient family, to be your thugs! You are a little self-righteous!"

Lu Li frowned when he heard this: "I'm just suggesting it. You don't have to show off to me. If you don't agree, just turn around and leave!"

"Ancestor! The current situation..."

Hearing Lu Li's words, Lu Jintang couldn't help but become a little anxious.

The Lu family's current situation is not good. Even if they don't follow Lu Li, they will probably be dragged into Xuantian Palace as cannon fodder. That's what he doesn't want the least.

The three elders also frowned secretly, feeling that their ancestor seemed a little abnormal today. Even if you don't agree with Lu Li, there's no need to make the atmosphere so tense, right?

"Don't talk to me about the current situation!"

"This kid has made it clear that he wants nothing to do with anything. Our Lu family is also an ancient weapon-refining family. How can we be taken advantage of by him based on his empty promises!"

Before Lu Jintang could finish speaking, the old farmer interrupted him directly.

"Fellow Taoist, do you think you don't have enough chips?" Lu Li was a little unhappy at first, but after hearing the old farmer's words, he raised his eyebrows.

"Hmph! Just one red gold bead can make my Lu family surrender. Do you think it's possible?" The old farmer sneered.

"Haha! You should have told me earlier."

Lu Li held his chin and thought for a moment: "How many do you want?"

Hearing this, the old farmer suddenly laughed: "Hey, you are quite smart! Let's do this. I don't want more from you, just give me three red gold beads to prove your strength."

"Ancestor! Fellow Daoist Lu, he has saved children several times, but you..."

Lu Jintang was speechless. The difference between three pills and one pill was not big, but the meaning of them taking the initiative to give it to Lu Li was completely different from Lu Li taking the initiative to give it to him.

However, before Lu Jintang could finish complaining, Lu Li had already taken out three red gold beads and sent them to the old farmer.

"Fellow Taoist, are you satisfied with these three red gold beads?"

The three red gold beads were nothing more than the power of faith in the three realms. They were used in exchange for the Lu family, an ancient weapon-refining family, which was not a loss at all for Lu Li.

"Okay! Since you are so straightforward, I have nothing to say. As for these three red gold beads, I will not take them for nothing. I will pay enough for you in the future." The old farmer waved his hand and collected the red gold beads floating in front of him.

"You are too polite. These three red gold beads are my gift to you. You don't need to pay anything for them. But if you want more in the future, you have to follow the rules of the sect..."

Lu Li said, and waved his hand. A blood soul tablet floated in front of the old farmer: "First the villain and then the gentleman, I hope you don't mind."

"You kid, you really don't suffer any loss!"

The old farmer looked at Lu Li with resentment, but he didn't regret it. He immediately shook his momentum and forced out a drop of blood essence, which melted into the blood soul tablet.

Then he condensed his energy into a thread and engraved the three small words "Lv Fengxian" on the blood soul tablet. Then he waved his hand and sent the blood soul tablet back to Lu Li.

At this point, the ancestor of the Lu family is considered a supreme person.

"Fellow Daoists, you..." Lu Li turned around and looked at Lu Jintang and others.

"The ancestor has agreed, so we naturally have no objection." After a few people looked at each other, Lu Jintang smiled and nodded.

"Okay! In this case, I will bear the pain and give you a red gold bead each." Lu Li waved his sleeves, and four blood soul tablets flew out, and four red gold beads also came to the four people.

Seeing this, the four people were suddenly surprised and happy. Although they can't use this bead now, it will definitely be useful in the future.

This kid is really courageous.

It seems that his so-called sect is really not a fake.

Seeing this scene, Lu Fengxian couldn't help but nod secretly.

The reason why he shouted out the price of three red gold beads before was actually just to test whether Lu Li really had this strength.

After all, a red gold bead can't prove anything. What if this guy picked it up from somewhere? If the Lu family blindly followed him, the ending might not be so good.

Seeing Lu Li's generosity and his calm expression, Lu Fengxian finally put his mind at ease.

At the same time, he also looked forward to getting more red gold beads in the future.
