Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 685 The Third Guest

Imperial capital, Lu family.

The old-fashioned house exudes a sense of oppressive seriousness.

In the pine needle forest, the thin man sitting on a stone pillar in the open space drinking tea had a sinking face.

The corners of his glasses burned with the surrounding light.

There were many old men standing around, with equally stern expressions.

"He kidnapped my brother and wanted me to pay for it with the life of the Li family?"

The old man kneeling in front of him said with a sullen voice:

"Yes, Master."

"That damn kid even cut off Master Lu Hong's... lifeblood."

"Now that Lord Lu Hong has fallen into their hands, and is protected by Fengnan, a tough rock, if we want to rescue Lord Lu Hong, we have to discuss it with the Li family..."

Lu Mingbing was silent for a long time, then slowly opened the lid of the tea in his hand and took a leisurely sip of tea.

"Do the people in the Li family know about this?"

The old man said:

"have no idea."

"Do you want to inform them, Master?"

Lu Mingbing said lightly:

"If they don't know, then they don't need to know."

"This matter will end here first."

The old man was stunned, and other people around him were also stunned.

"Master... you?"

Stop here first?

Are you kidding me?

Then Zhao Yi kidnapped your younger brother and chopped off your younger brother. That’s the end of it?

Everyone looked at Lu Mingbing's unconcerned look, and Monk Zhang Er was confused for a moment.

Based on their understanding of Lu Mingbing, it is not impossible to eliminate Zhao Yi and the forces under his command, or directly massacre the entire abandoned city.

How could he just let it go?

Lu Mingbing slowly took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and savored the fragrance on his lips and teeth.

"Why don't you think about Zhao Yi's purpose for doing this?"

Everyone looked at each other.

"Purpose?"

"Don't he just want us and the Li family to tear each other apart?"

A certain woman from the Lu family looked disdainful.

"He threatened you with your brother's life. He made it clear that he wanted the Lu family to fight against the Li family, and then provoke internal conflicts among us."

"This little trick is really disgusting!"

"It's no wonder that a wild dog like him has his head full of these dirty schemes!"

Lu Mingbing said coldly:

"If he was so stupid, there's no way he would be alive today."

The woman frowned.

Lu Mingbing's words obviously scolded her as well.

But she didn't dare to show any displeasure, so she could only say:

"Please tell me, head of the family."

Lu Mingbing mixed himself with tea, and white mist rose faintly.

"Zhao Yi is indeed a bold lunatic who dares to do many things that others would never dare to think of."

"But he's not stupid."

"Lu Hong suffered such a humiliating defeat because he was too arrogant and stupid, and lost a hand that was impossible to lose... I knew he had such a personality, so I deliberately took some risks and borrowed him two more A strong man in the domination realm asks Dan and Xia to follow him, just in case."

"If Lu Hong wants to retreat during this period, three strong men from the Domination Realm will be enough to keep him safe."

"Or, if he doesn't risk entering Zhao Yi's territory, he just waits in a safe area outside... and he won't be in such an awkward situation now."

"But he chose the most dangerous and stupidest path."

"Then Zhao Yi offered such conditions to the Lu family, not because he really wanted the Lu family and the Li family to fight each other, but to demonstrate to the Lu family that this guy... has great ambitions and will probably settle in the imperial capital in the future. "

The woman frowned and said:

"In this case, if we don't 'reciprocate' something, doesn't it mean that our Lu family is afraid of him?"

"After the entertainment company's Fengnan broke through, he is indeed strong, but he can only hold down three masters. If we add one more master, Zhao Yi will definitely die!"

Lu Mingbing shook his head:

"The master will not agree."

"Being able to move away the three masters and follow Lu Hong is already my limit."

After saying this, Lu Mingbing's eyes hidden behind his glasses showed a hint of coldness.

"But this revenge must be avenged."

"That guy Fengnan deserves to die too."

When Mrs. Lu heard this, her expression was happy:

"What are you going to do, Master?"

Lu Mingbing said in a gloomy tone:

"That guy Zhao Yi, since he wants to use my brother to show off my power, he might as well use Lu Hong as a chess piece, and I will play a game with him..."

The Lu family members on the side couldn't help but shuddered after hearing Lu Mingbing's words, and looked at him more carefully.

This guy is really ruthless!

Not even his own brother is spared!

"Go get paper and pen. I want to...write a letter to Zhao Yi in person."

Lu Mingbing's lips slowly turned cruel.

…

Abandoned city.

Redwood Temple.

Zhao Yi sat outside the temple gate, listening to Nanjia's chanting in the temple, and looking at the vast scenery of the suburban mountains.

This place was originally lush and full of ghosts, but after saving Nanjia in the copy of "The Bells of the Long Night", Nanjia chanted sutras every day to purify the place, and the evil spirits were transcended. It is also much softer and not as scary as before.

This place has become a beautiful scenic spot near the abandoned city, where people often come and go to burn incense.

Nanjia's chanting has a special, warm and firm power that can purify people's negative states.

Zhao Yi was quite interested in this, expecting that more and more people from Jiejiao would embark on the path of cultivation in the future. If some people have problems in their cultivation, they can be sent here for treatment.

Not long after, Wu Liang also appeared here.

"Master, according to your instructions, Yunfang has already set up the formation."

Zhao Yi opened his eyes, looked at Wu Liang in front of him, and nodded slightly.

"I know."

Wu Liang hesitated for a moment, but still asked:

"Master, with our strength and Boss Feng, can we really stop the revenge of the Lu family?"

Zhao Yi said:

"Jin Shiyue told me that Lu Mingbing can only use three masters of the family."

"If he wants to continue to withdraw masters of the family, the old guys in the family will be unhappy. Those old guys are the real rulers of the Lu family. If they are annoyed, Lu Mingbing's position will be lost. Do you think he will give up the power in his hands for Lu Hong?"

Wu Liang suddenly realized.

"I asked you to do this just in case."

"But judging from logic, the possibility of the Lu family directly causing trouble for us is zero."

After Zhao Yi finished speaking, Wu Liang scratched his head, with a tone of disbelief:

"So... he just let it go?"

"You won't save your brother?"

Zhao Yi held a cigarette in his mouth and took out a lighter.

"His brother will definitely not want it."

"But the people of the Lu family will not let it go. Revenge on us is just a matter of means and time."

"But if the enemy comes, the general will stop it, and if the water comes, the earth will cover it. If you want to enter the imperial capital, you will run into them sooner or later. The future enemies of Jiejiao will be many and powerful, and the Lu family is nothing more than a small episode among them..."

Just as he was talking, Xu Shengzhi called.

Zhao Yi answered the phone, listened to what Xu Shengzhi said, and smiled:

"The third guest is here."

Wu Liang:

"Who?"

Zhao Yi:

"An unexpected person."
