Chapter 200
200 Old ancestor Lu’s plan
The four golden core cultivators of the Feiyun state were gathered together.
How many years had it been since such a scene had happened?
At least, most of the cultivators present had never seen it before.
And the current situation seemed to be very clear.
Li Yanling and hai Sande stood together, while Lu chaoxi stood behind them. He was holding a mirror in his hand. Lu Qing’s illusory figure was projected from the mirror beside hai Sande and Li Sande.
Lu Qing acted as if he did not understand the current situation at all and asked, ” “Everyone’s here, Yan Ling is already at Jindan? Congratulations, what’s the situation now? Looking at your bitter and hateful faces, are you going to fight? Then there would be a good show to watch! It’s a pity that I’m not here in person. Otherwise, I’d definitely spar with you.”
Lu Qing’s jesting made the cultivators from the various sects who were watching look at each other in dismay. Even Lu chaoxi had the urge to roll his eyes when he heard his father’s unruly words.
However, those who were slightly older and had heard of Lu Qing’s story in the past were not surprised. On the contrary, they were thinking in their hearts:
“This is indeed the temperament of old ancestor Lu!”
He was indeed Lu Qing. Otherwise, how could he be fake?
However, his mocking tone eased the tense atmosphere in the hall a little.
That feeling just now was really a bit scary. It was as if the Golden core cultivators were about to fight.
In reality, Lu Qing did not wish for that to happen.
On the one hand, others didn’t know, but he knew his own situation. He could not do anything now. Even if he had a resurrection exchange item in his hand, six hours was not enough for him to interfere with what was happening at the Qingfeng sect.
As for Li Yanling and hai Sande, if they were to really turn against Kong Tong, they might not be able to win.
On the other hand, winning might not be a good thing.
Peace had always been a false proposition. Only struggle was eternal.
After taking down Kong Tong and breaking up the sect leader’s bloodline, what would happen next? The Lu family and the hai family would definitely have a honeymoon period, but thinking about it, if the two families wanted to continue to grow in the future, there would be many conflicts.
Putting everything aside, which side did Li Yanling belong to? If there was a conflict between the Lu and hai families, who would she choose between her husband and her master?
The Lu family was not strong enough at the moment. If the Lu family and the hai family had a conflict, and Li Yanling stood on her master’s side, it would be hard for the Lu family to resist. And even if Li Yanling stood on the side of the Lu family, she had not fully matured yet, and the Lu family would still be suppressed by the hai family.
They might not be able to take him down, and the risk of a direct conflict was huge. Even if he did, he might not be able to develop comfortably.
Since that was the case, it was better to keep Kong Tong alive and create a common enemy for the two families. The hai Corporation would be in front, and the Lu family would be cheering from behind. Occasionally, they would help out a little, mainly taking advantage of the time when the two sides were fighting to develop. Wasn’t this good?
It was also because of this thought that Lu Qing had used improper words to ease his nervousness after he had come out. At the same time, the words ‘we’re going to fight’ that he mentioned vaguely reminded the other three golden core cultivators that they were all from the same sect. Did they really want to fight in front of an outsider like Lu Qing?
“Junior Brother Lu, you must be joking.” Hai Sande was all smiles, appearing to be very friendly. why are they fighting? We’re just having a chat and you’re a guest Grand Elder, so you can be a witness.”
“It’ll be boring if they don’t fight. I mean, it’s good that they don’t fight. If there’s anything you want to witness, tell us, and our Lu family will definitely cooperate if we can!”
Hai Sande said, ” it’s nothing more than the matter of the North Sea route. Some things have happened to Husheng trading company. It’s not suitable to continue. I was just thinking, could my hai family and your Lu family be of any help? The main thing is that the Gongsun family is related to the Lu family by marriage, so we’ll be the only ones to run away from the trade route in Liao County in the future, so that the Gongsun family won’t keep harping on the attack last time and affect the trade between the two states.”
He had already made concessions in his words.
The northern trade route originally included the route by sea to Liao County and the route by land to Ji Nan. Previously, when hai Changsheng was having fun, he had always been fighting for these two routes to be under the control of the land-sea Alliance.
Hai Sande’s words had only mentioned the trade route from Liao County.
“I support it.” Lu Qing said decisively. He then turned to look at Daoist Kong Tong. senior brother Kong Tong, our Lu clan is already in marriage with the Gongsun clan. Both of our children are in the sect now. Since Husheng Merchant House is facing some problems, then we can use the relationship between the Lu family and the Gongsun family to help them continue this business route.”
His words could be considered as giving Kong Tong a way out.
Kong Tong didn’t say anything. He just looked at hai Changsheng, who was tied up.
Li Yanling continued,”since the discipline Hall insists, and many of our fellow disciples have some opinions about senior brother hai, then senior brother hai should make a trip to the discipline Hall.” I believe senior martial brother hai won’t have any problems. I’ll only be here for three to five days.”
Hai Changsheng also nodded his head.
The meaning of these words was also very clear. No matter what, they had to give some face to the person who had previously remonstrated with death and to the line of the sect leader. If he didn’t want to let go, then so be it. With the string of words spoken by hai Sande, Li Yanling, and Lu Qing today as a guarantee, him going to the discipline Hall for a few days was nothing more than a mere formality.
In this way, the sea and land sides had already proposed their compromise.
What else could Kong Tong do?
Are you really not willing to give up and want to fall out here?
He nodded reluctantly and said,”let’s do it this way.”
……
What happened on Husheng peak had a considerable impact.
It was small because there were not many people present. Apart from the people directly involved, there were less than 30 onlookers in total, and they were basically cultivators who worked for the Husheng trading company. After the incident, the high-level cultivators had also issued a gag order, forbidding anyone from disclosing today’s events to the outside world.
After all, no matter what, this was still a scandal, and there was even a death admonishment.
As for the big side, although the sect leader’s lineage and the hai family’s lineage had not reached the point of turning the table over, there was a deep Rift between the two sides.
This had also created a huge hidden danger for the division of the sect.
It was unknown when this fuse would blow up the entire Qingfeng sect into pieces.
However, this was exactly what Lu Qing had hoped for.
Lu chaoxi didn’t have to worry too much about the internal affairs of the sect. He would still be staying with Li Yanling in the Qingfeng sect for two years. With Ming Chao in the family, there wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
As for the route to Liao County, there was no problem with the cooperation between the two families. With two months of preparation, the first merchant ship that the two families cooperated with would head north.

I haven’t been short of two chapters a day, but Yingluo’s latest chapter update is indeed too late.
It’s mainly because I haven’t adjusted my work and rest.
I still have to sleep early and wake up early!
