Chapter 124 The Song Family
The king and the three old masters both felt that the results of the competition between Master Cai and Master Lu were a bit strange, both expected and unexpected.
What was expected was that Master Lu would be defeated by Master Cai. After all, Master Cai's strength was close to the middle level of martial arts realm, and his age was very different. What was expected was that Master Lu had only retreated twice, not even injured at all, and this kind of strength was quite profound.
The others had their own thoughts and different expressions. Wei Fu seemed a little disappointed, while Song Qin'er changed from worry before the competition to pleasure after the competition.
The king took the opportunity to say, "Thank you, Tai Shi Tai Shi and Tai Shi Lu for your wonderful skills. Both of you are the top masters of our Changguo. I hope to continue to maintain friendly exchanges in the future and promote our Changguo's martial arts. Today, everyone has fun, so let's break up."
Everyone left the courtyard, and Lu Chong was thinking about the situation of the evening competition along the way. It seemed that the strength of the power lies in the size of the cyclone and the speed of the true qi conversion. The reason why Master Cai could still have a little true qi in the end was because he absorbed more and faster.
Of course, there is also the strength of the impact force. Master Cai’s martial arts are probably more than 200 jin. Every collision between the big handprint and the big footprint made Lu Chong feel the pressure of the big footprints on his chest, and the final blow almost made him unable to relieve himself.
After returning to the inner courtyard of "Fenglin Garden", Lu Chong sat cross-legged under the tree and tried hard to extract the essence of the tree. Although the cyclone rotated several times more than before, it could not continue to grow. If you practice at this speed, it would be difficult to go further in less than ten to twenty years.
What Lu Chong didn't know was that even if he could improve one level in twenty years, it was an extremely rare cultivation speed. He was just thinking about how to improve his cultivation faster. He guessed that if he went to the big forest to practice or obtain a piece of mysterious wood like a wood spirit again, his cultivation would definitely make rapid progress.
The night passed like this, and when Chu Li told him that a guest had arrived, Lu Chong stopped practicing.
When he arrived at the living room, Lu Tong saw the Master Bai Jianfei who was used to smiling. Bai Jianfei bowed and said, "Master Lu is really skilled. Even the old master who is over 100 years old can compete with the situation. It's amazing, I admire it."
Lu Chong responded calmly: "I'm too much, I'll tell you, I almost came back lying down."
Bai Jianfei said: "It is normal for Master Cai to be entrenched in the imperial city for a hundred years and is very strong. Master Lu can be unbeaten, but I am afraid that the situation in the imperial city will change."
Lu Chong immediately changed the subject and said, "If you want to talk about the current situation, the appearance of those princes last night is indeed a bit incomprehensible."
Bai Jianfei smiled and said, "I am here to send some information about the princes to Master Lu. The eldest prince is over 100 years old and is a five-merid craftsman. Even if he relies on the assistance of elixirs, he will not have many years to live. What's more, he plans to give up the struggle for the position of kingdom and begin to indulge in wine and sex."
"The Second Prince is a master of Six-Meridians. He is 95 years old. If he can break through the martial arts realm in a short period of time, he can certainly increase his life. Then the position of inheriting the king of the country will naturally belong to him."
"The Third Prince is just a five-vein craftsman. He is very calm and scheming. He is still in his forties. The key is that he has a strong master, the extremely thin old master Wu. If the Second Prince cannot break through the realm, he can also inherit the position of the king of the country with his strength."
"As for the fourth prince who is in his thirties, he is the apprentice of Master Zhou, who has only broken through the Four-Meridian Technique for a while, his personality is enthusiastic and easy-going. If his strength improves quickly, he can also compete with the Third Prince."
Lu Chong thought for a while and said, "Who is optimistic about one of them?"
Bai Jianfei said: "It should be that the third prince has a greater chance, but this means little to us. Unless we have the opportunity to go back to be the state leader in a few years, let alone, the decision of the state leader must be approved by the supervisor behind it."
Lu Chong also said: "There are still opportunities to select state leaders in five years. It is good to handle more relationships, and the resources you will get will be more."
Bai Jianfei nodded and responded, "That's right. I am determined to be the same as Master Lu, and I will never let Master Wei and others cover up the sky with one hand. I wonder if Master Lu is willing to recognize me as a friend?"
Lu Chong immediately said, "Of course, we should join forces." After that, the two looked at each other and laughed. Seeing that the purpose of coming here had been achieved, Bai Jianfei took the opportunity to say goodbye to Lu Chong and leave.
In the following time, Lu Tong was addicted to crazy cultivation again. Wei Yunyuan and Han Xinchen could not see Lu Tong at all. Even Song Qin'er, who was spontaneous on her usual behavior, knew that Lu Tong was practicing hard, and did not dare to disturb him easily.
Early that morning, Song Qin'er hurriedly knocked on Lu Chong's door and said while knocking on the door: "Master, my second brother has come to pay a visit to you, so you can come out."
Lu Chong had already heard the sound outside, opened the door and said to Song Qiner, "Qin'er, look at you, do you like your second brother very much?"
Song Qiner nodded and replied, "Of course, my second brother loved me the most when I was a child. Master, you should help my second brother well. Qiner will remember it in his heart."
Lu Chong smiled and didn't say anything. After arriving at the living room, he saw an old man with a very loyal appearance standing in the hall. When he heard Lu Chong enter, he quickly turned around and said respectfully to Lu Chong: "Song Yiran pays homage to Master Lu."
Lu Chong said calmly: "The Second Prince, don't be polite, please sit down."
The loyal and honest old man sat upright on a chair, his movements were very light and he showed an extremely calm momentum, which should have reached the peak state of Liumaitong.
Lu Chong said casually: "What will the Second Prince see here?"
The old man immediately stood up again, bowed to Lu Chong and said, "The student took the liberty and hoped to be like a fifth sister, under the disciple of Lu Tai Shi, and ask Lu Tai Shi to be approved."
Lu Chong immediately said, "The Second Prince is too humble. You have now stepped into the threshold of the martial arts realm with one foot. I believe that in the near future, you and I will be at the same level. Besides, since I have accepted Ling Mei as my disciple, how can I accept you in reverse?"
The old man was excited and thought to himself that Lu Chong had a strong vision. He had already reached the state of internal energy and external circulation for many years. He had touched the edge of the martial arts realm. He believed that he would be able to break through soon, which made him even stronger the idea of relying on Lu Chong.
The old man said sincerely: "Students truly admire Master Lu's talent for martial arts cultivation. My fifth sister often praises Master Lu's wisdom to me. Even if the students cannot enter the Shenmu Sect, I hope that I will respect you with the teacher's courtesy."
Lu Chong looked at the loyal old man in front of him and admired his tenacity and persistence, and even began to feel that among the four princes, this person was the most suitable successor to the country's king, so he nodded immediately.
The old man took out three exquisite boxes and placed them on the table, and said happily: "This is a little respect for the students to the teacher. It is only because I heard that the teacher was born in a wooden tool family and likes formations and refining medicines. So he collected a few things with all his heart, hoping that the teacher would accept it with a smile."
Lu Chong opened the three boxes and saw them shocked. These things were not collected at will. One box contained a small piece of black wood he needed. The other two boxes were a nine-colored divine stone and an extremely rare medicinal herb "Orchid Grass".
After Lu Chong returned to his calm, he said, "The Second Prince has trouble. Well, I accept your respect. If you need my help in the future, come to me."
The old man said excitedly: "Okay, I won't disturb the teacher anymore, the student will say goodbye now." Then he saluted respectfully again and walked out of the living room briskly.
After seeing off the second prince, Lu Chong was about to absorb the essence of the mysterious wood tonight, but suddenly received an invitation sent by Chu Li. It turned out that it was submitted by the fourth prince, saying that his master, Taishi Zhou, wanted Taishi Lu to go to "Qingsongyuan" to gather.
