I Am a Late Bloomer In the World of Immortality Chapter 603

Chapter 603: The test of the king, Wei is willing to... help one or two (4k4, please subscribe)

 A few days later.

Weitu and his party successfully arrived at Jishan Sect.

However, unlike the enthusiastic welcome expected by the cultivators of the mission, the foreign affairs elder of the Jishan Sect who was responsible for welcoming them only placed them at the back of the Yingbin Hall and did not entertain them any more.

 Including spiritual banquets, tea, etc., there is nothing.

 Obviously, they were given the cold shoulder by the Jishan sect.

“The attitude of the senior leaders of the Jishan Sect towards the Luqiu clan has changed.”

“However, this change is not irreversible, otherwise we would not be welcomed into the mountain gate.”

 That night, Wei Tu and Lu Qiu Qingfeng met privately. The two met in a secret room to discuss the reasons for the change of attitude of the Jishan Sect.

Weitu once again acted as a think tank and made a certain judgment on the current situation.

“The key to the problem is to find the cause of the disease, and then find the appropriate senior leaders of the Jishan Sect to lobby.”

Wei Tu speaks from experience.

But when he said this, Wei Tu suddenly realized something. He raised his head and glanced at Luqiu Qingfeng, and soon saw some distress on the woman's face.

 There is no other reason.

Both he and Luqiu Qingfeng knew the "cause" of the disease. It was simply that the Luqiu clan was too close to the "Tong Zun" of Xiaohuan Palace, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the "old master" of the Jishan Sect. .

 So, it is very simple to resolve this crisis, adopt an attitude of alienating Xiao Huan Gong, or break off relations with Xiao Huan Gong.

 But this is obviously impossible.

 In the hearts of the Luqiu clan, the current weight of the Jishan Sect is far less than that of Xiaohuan Palace.

 After all, the Luqiu clan can talk to "Tong Zunzun", but in the Jishan Sect, they still belong to the "foreign ministers" and their status is not high.

 Abandoning the Xiao Huan Palace means losing the big for the small.

However-

 If the cause of this disease is not eliminated, it will be even harder for the Luqiu clan to regain the trust of the top leaders of the Jishan Sect.

Weitu guessed that the leader of the country, Luqiu Yeming, and the king of Luqiu people should have been prepared for the cold reception of the Jishan sect.

It's just that the person who went on the mission this time was Luqiu Qingfeng. If he “offended” the Shang Zong on the first day and got into trouble with the Shang Zong, it would inevitably affect his prestige as the crown prince.

 “This should be a test for me from the king.”

Lu Qiu Qingfeng sighed. Although her cultivation level was now equal to that of the country's leader, Lu Qiu Yeming, her level... was only one of the conditions to measure whether she could become the leader of the country.

  It does not mean that the higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the ability to deal with things.

 The two are not equivalent.

“The same thing happened with Lu Qiu Qing. My father must have noticed that she had impure thoughts, so he deliberately changed the offer of marriage to a marriage proposal... He wanted to see how I would treat this sister-in-law..."

Luqiu Qingfeng said in a condensed voice.

Her father, Lu Qiu Yeming, competed for positions just like her, but the difference was that she relied on Wei Tu's ability, while Lu Qiu Yeming relied entirely on his own means.

She thought to herself that her father, Wang Luqiu Yeming, was definitely smarter than her and far more sophisticated than her.

Wei Tu understood the hidden meaning of Lu Qiu Qingfeng's words.

This woman planned to leave Lu Qiu Qing alone first to prevent Lu Qiu Yeming from being suspicious, and then guess that the fall of Lu Qiu Jin Yuan was related to the two of them.

 In this regard, Wei Tu naturally would not oppose Luqiu Qingfeng.

 He was not interested in Luqiu Qingfeng's family affairs.

Previously, the request for Lu Qiuqing's body after death was just to help Kou Hongying's path.

 Besides, as an outsider, he should not interfere too much in Luqiu Qingfeng's family affairs.

 After saying, "The princess is wise," he turned the topic to dealing with the change of attitude of the Jishan Sect.

The two of them discussed for a long time, and finally set their sights on "Luo Guzhuo", the law enforcement elder of the Jishan Sect Law Enforcement Hall who had been targeted before.

Since the mainstream high-level leaders of the Jishan Sect do not accept them, they can only look for another excluded person - "Luo Guzhuo".

 It can be regarded as a kind of hugging together for warmth in a certain sense.

Of course, this premise is that their previous guesses are true: Luo Mingzhen was indeed kidnapped by some high-level officials who were hostile to his father, Hall Master Luo, and sold to Ruyi Tower.

—This grace of saving the daughter, coupled with the hostility of the mainstream high-level officials, allowed them to successfully convince Palace Master Luo to join forces with the two of them and maintain the relationship between the Luqiu clan and the Jishan sect for the time being.

 At least, during the period when Luqiu Qingfeng was the crown prince, the relationship between the two major forces remained as before.

As the largest force under the Jishan Sect, the Luqiu clan does not have many helpers among the upper echelons of the Jishan Sect, but they still have quite a lot of connections among the middle and lower levels.

Soon, Lu Qiu Qingfeng used these contacts to get some detailed information about Luo Mingzhen before his disappearance.

“When the sea beasts made trouble, as an elder, I went down the mountain to clean up the sea beasts. Unfortunately, I encountered the fourth-level sea beast “Fire Monkey King” in the sea beast group. I was seriously injured in a fight... and my whereabouts are still unknown.”

Wei Tu checked the various information collected one by one and found no obvious clues.

 This is just a very common case of the disappearance of a monk.

  In the world of cultivating immortals, there are countless cases like this among various sects and sects.

However, he did not come here to investigate the case. Having grasped the exact whereabouts of Luo Mingzhen, he only needed to "find the cause through the results" and find the suspicious point that Luo Mingzhen was abducted by the monks of the same sect.

“Before Luo Mingzhen disappeared, two months ago, the master of Gongde Palace, “Feng Han”, went down the mountain once…”

Suddenly, Wei Tu saw this piece of information. He raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to search for information related to "Feng Han" among the information.

"Feng Han and Palace Master Luo have a long-standing grudge."

"Luo Mingzhen disappeared. The disciples of Palace Master Luo have said more than once that it might be Feng Han's doing."

 “Feng Han.”

Weitu muttered the name.

He guessed that it was this person who was responsible for the disappearance of Luo Ming.

 And coincidentally, this person is also one of the main senior officials of the Jishan Sect that targets the Luqiu clan.

"It's him! It must be him!" Luqiu Qingfeng, who was looking for information together, saw the jade slip in Wei Tu's hand, her consciousness swept away, and she looked slightly excited.

“Now, I will find someone to use the Jishan Sect's ultrlong-distance teleportation array to go to the Yingui Sect to rescue Luo Mingzhen.”

Luqiu Qingfeng said with excitement. As she spoke, she walked out of the house.

Under the command of the Jishan Sect, there are countless forces in the Outer Xuhai. In order to better control these forces, ultrlong-distance teleportation arrays were set up near these forces one by one.

 Near Yuanjun Island, there is also a super-long-distance teleportation array gate set up by the Jishan Sect.

 So, as long as she uses this ultrlong-distance teleportation array, she can return to the red algae sea area as soon as possible and rescue Luo Mingzhen.

Of course, these ultrlong-distance teleportation arrays are just one-way teleportation arrays from the Jishan Sect to major forces.

 If you want to become a two-way teleportation array, you must use the "Great Movement Order" within the Jishan Sect.

 It's just that the Great Removal Order is generally not lent to outsiders.

 So, if Luqiu Qingfeng wanted to come back, he had to walk the same journey all over again.

But Luqiu Qingfeng thought to herself that after rescuing Luo Mingzhen, she would not miss the time for her "pilgrimage" to the god-incarnation venerable with her speed.

However-

At this moment, Wei Tu suddenly made a voice and stopped Lu Qiu Qingfeng who was about to step out of the house.

“Friend Wei Dao, do you have anything else to do?”

Luqiu Qingfeng paused and turned to look at Wei Tu with a puzzled look on his face.

 After this period of getting along, she has a clear understanding of Wei Tu's abilities and knows that Wei Tu is by no means an unreasonable person.

There must be something important if he stops her right now.

"Princess, Wei thinks that if Luo Ming is really whereabouts, we can just tell Palace Master Luo. For the rescue, you and I... shouldn't go." Wei Tu cupped his hands and persuaded.

Just now, when he was checking the information, he had already seen from the information flow that Palace Master Luo was an upright person who "served the public wholeheartedly".

 It is not a bad thing to be dedicated to serving the public good.

 But it's easy…to live with each other. In short, even if Palace Master Luo knew that Feng Han, the master of Gongde Palace, was the culprit who abducted his daughter Luo Mingzhen, it was very likely that for the sake of the Jishan Sect, he would not expose this scandal and endure everything silently.

At this point, let alone exonerating the Luqiu clan's sins regardless of the “cause” of their friendship with Xiao Huan Gong.

 So, in his opinion, if they want to turn Palace Master Luo into the Palace Master Luo they want, they need to force him.

 Let him personally go to rescue his beloved daughter.

 One.

Once Palace Master Luo personally rescues people, without the "gloves" of the Luqiu clan, it will be difficult to cover up his traces when rescuing people across borders.

The fact that Luo Mingzhen was kidnapped by his fellow clan members and sold to Ruyilou will be forced to be put on the table. Even if Hall Master Luo wanted to suppress it afterwards, he would not be able to do so.

They who provided the information deservedly became the benefactors of Palace Master Luo.

 At that time, Palace Master Luo will try his best to help them even if it is for the sake of "public interest".

 Otherwise, your reputation will be ruined.

 Both.

After witnessing the suffering of his beloved daughter, there is a high probability that Palace Master Luo will not endure it anymore and will not blame Feng Han, the main high-level officials of the Jishan Sect.

With the top management of the Jishan Sect in chaos, and with this more important internal contradiction, the Luqiu clan's "erni" external contradictions can be put aside for the time being.

 “What Fellow Daoist Wei said is very good!”

Hearing this, Luqiu Qingfeng was overjoyed and became more and more fond of Wei Tu.

 Previously, she only thought that Wei Tu was an ally with strong strength, qualifications and amazing potential.

 But now, she discovered that Wei Tu was not only not to be underestimated in terms of strength, but also in terms of intelligence, he was much better than other monks.

 “Perhaps it's time for me to change my mind.”

Luqiu Qingfeng thought secretly.

 After killing one Lu Qiu Qing, there will be countless "Lu Qiu Qing" in the Lu Qiu clan, waiting to win over Wei Tu.

 After all, there are quite a lot of princesses in the royal family of the Luqiu family.

 She can't be killed at all.

On the other hand, if she sacrifices her life to marry Wei Tu, this crisis will be solved.

Who among the royal daughters of the Luqiu clan dares to compete with her for a husband?

Lu Qiu Qingfeng didn't think Wei Tu would refuse her offer to sacrifice her life. After all, her wealth was far beyond what Lu Qiu Qing could match.

 In the future, the entire Donghua Demon Kingdom will be hers.

Although she reluctantly decided to sacrifice her life to win over Wei Tu, Luqiu Qingfeng was not anxious about this matter, but prioritized national affairs first.

It was night, so she sent someone to send a talisman letter to contact the Lord Luo of the inner sect of the Jishan Sect, saying that they had important matters to discuss.

Even though the Luqiu clan is a "lower sect" and is subordinate to the six sects of Xuan Dao, the Jishan sect, this does not mean that the Luqiu clan has no dignity among the top leaders of the Jishan sect.

As the largest force under the Jishan Sect, if it were not for special reasons, he would be attracted and befriended by many high-level officials of the Jishan Sect.

Therefore, after seeing the talisman letter from Lu Qiu Qingfeng, the crown prince of Donghua Demon Kingdom, although Palace Master Luo was puzzled and worried about the cold reception orders given by his sect, he still bit the bullet and secretly went to Jishan Sect to meet with Lu Qiu Qingfeng and Wei and Tu met.

 He knows some of the thoughts of the higher-ups in the sect.

—In addition to wanting to use this "cold attitude" to get the Luqiu clan back into line, he also had the idea of ​​forcing the Luqiu clan to make concessions and increase future tribute resources.

Forcing the Luqiu clan to rebel, and then killing chickens to scare monkeys...

 Only a small number of people at the top of the Jishan sect hold this opinion, and most people are not so radical.

Hence, he knew in his heart that the Luqiu Clan's envoys were not inaccessible. Even the top leaders of the Jishan Sect expected the Luqiu Clan's envoys to meet with them privately...

If this were not the case, even if he was worried about offending the Luqiu clan, he would not take the risk to come.

only-

Hall Master Luo was a little puzzled because he had no deep friendship with the Luqiu clan before, so why Luqiu Qingfeng came to his door first a few days after arriving.

With these thoughts in mind, Palace Master Luo, wearing a black cloak, flew to the Fangshi Inn where he had an appointment with Luqiu Qingfeng and walked in.

“I wonder why the Luqiu clan came to see me?”

“I will only stay for ten breaths this time. After ten breaths, I will leave.”

He glanced at Luqiu Qingfeng and Wei Tu, and instead of sitting down, he said these words first in a rather cold tone.

 He knows the negotiation process well.

 It is not easy to get to the bottom of the Jishan Sect.

 However, as Lu Qiu Qingfeng opened his mouth, it was no longer possible to maintain the calm look on his face.

"What? Do you two know the whereabouts of the little girl?"

 “Where is she now?”

 Hall Master Luo looked shocked and said excitedly.

Decades ago, since his beloved daughter Luo Mingzhen disappeared, he frantically searched for her in the Inner Ruins Sea and all major outer seas, but unfortunately, he found nothing.

Now, the only thing he is thankful for is that his beloved daughter's soul card is not broken.

But I never thought that there would be another village where the willows are dark and the flowers are bright.

 Wei Tu and Luqiu Qingfeng, who came to Jishan as envoys, actually knew the specific whereabouts of her daughter Luo Mingzhen.

 “This is a coincidence…”

 “A friend of Wei Daoyou's whereabouts was unknown...”

After Hall Master Luo regained his composure, Luqiu Qingfeng paused and talked about the process of accidentally discovering Luo Mingzhen.

However, during the presentation, her words were not too explicit, but rather tactfully stated the specific situation Luo Ming was in now.

after all-

The loved daughter has become Yuan Ying's furnace, was sold, and the little concubine of Mozong monk. For Luo Dianzhu ... psychological strikes will inevitably be too big.

 “As long as you're alive, you're good as long as you're alive.”

 “As long as she's alive.”

 Hall Master Luo didn't say much, he just kept repeating these few sentences.

But whether it was Wei Tu or Lu Qiu Qingfeng, they could see the anger that had been suppressed for a long time and could be ignited at the first touch from the face of Hall Master Luo.

 The two of them looked at each other and understood that this plan was already half successful.

 But Wei Tu was not too happy about this.

 After all, this incident is a big blow to a father. He also has children, so he can understand the mood of Hall Master Luo at this moment.

Seven years ago, he took no trouble to move his relatives to the Immortal Realm of Guixuhai. The purpose was to prevent his relatives from being retaliated by others.

 “The Yingui Sect of the Red Algae Sea, right?”

 “Yingui Sect…”

 Hall Master Luo stood up and prepared to leave. He couldn't wait to save his daughter from the sea of ​​​​fire.

“Wei is willing to lead the way for Master Luo in this matter and help him a little bit.” Seeing this, Wei Tu expressed his attitude.

 Previously, he refused to rescue Luo Mingzhen because the cost of rescuing this woman was beyond his ability to bear easily.

 But now, it's different.

Over the years, his strength has greatly increased, and he is now able to deal with ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul masters, and he also has assistants such as Five Elements Infant and Split Sky Eagle to help him.

What's more, now it is Palace Master Luo who takes action personally and is the main force attacking the Yin Gui Sect.

 In short, he is now rescuing Luo Mingzhen. Although he is not helping Luo Mingzhen casually, the price paid for this matter can be easily borne by him.

 Furthermore, this matter...is not for profit, he really wants to help Yili.
