Chu Yang's words seemed to be a joke, but at the same time, it didn't seem to be.
But these few people from the Lan Clan were obviously very well-mannered. Upon hearing this, they all burst out laughing, as if Chu Yang had said an extremely interesting joke.
But everyone's heart skipped a beat. They knew that from the moment Chu Yang sat down until now, the initiative of the Lan Clan had rapidly slipped into Chu Yang's hands. And he was getting more and more comfortable with it.
Now that things had come to this, it would probably be difficult for them to reverse the passive situation they were in today.
"This time, the Lan Clan had no choice but to do this." Lan Ruo said sincerely, "Brother Chu, please be understanding."
Chu Yang knew that he was talking about the Lan Clan arranging for people to wait for more than a year in advance. He waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I still have to thank all of you for protecting Iron Cloud. "
Lan Ruo chuckled. His eyes flickered slightly. He gulped down a few more cups of wine. Under the influence of alcohol, he said either intentionally or unintentionally, "I really didn't expect that King of Hell Chu, who single-handedly overturned the universe back then, is actually the Tribulation Sword Master whose name shook the world and dominated the destiny of the heavens … This is really a shocking event."
Chu Yang smiled lightly and didn't say anything.
But he knew that the highlight of the day was finally here.
Seeing that Chu Yang didn't deny it, the few people from the Lan Clan's eyes lit up and they exchanged glances.
Looks like it should be him!
Lan Xinhua smiled and said, "Ruo 'er is still a little young. Actually, you should have thought about it long ago. Other than the Tribulation Sword Master, who else in this world can achieve such a shocking reversal of the situation of two big countries when he's powerless?"
"Elder Master is right." Lan Ruo laughed.
Chu Yang smiled bitterly and went into a daze. Looking at his expression, it seemed that he wanted to say something but held back. He shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He picked up his wine cup and took a sip. His gaze was deep in thought. Faintly. There was also some confusion on his face.
Lan Ruo, Lan Xinhua and the others were all stunned. They vaguely felt that something was wrong with Chu Yang.
Sure enough, the next moment, Chu Yang sighed bitterly.
Lan Ruo's eyes flashed and he laughed. "Brother Chu, one must enjoy life to the fullest. Why are you sighing?"
Chu Yang smiled and said with some self-mockery, "Tribulation Sword Master? Haha … What a great reputation … Sigh … "
Lan Ruo, Lan Xinhua, and the others exchanged glances, their hearts thumping wildly.
Chu Yang stretched out his right hand, and a 'clang' sound was heard. A sword. It appeared in his hand just like that. The sword light was awe-inspiring and brilliant, just like the Sword Emperor. Sovereign's Descent!
Calamity Sword!
The five of them cried out in their hearts. Their eyes were burning as they looked at the sword. Their gazes were filled with fervor and reverence.
Chu Yang's identity as the sword master. He could finally confirm it! This year's worth of preparations had finally not been in vain! At this moment, all five of them had the same thought.
No one noticed that the moment the Calamity Sword appeared, a colorless and odorless mist melted into the dishes on the table.
The fog had completely dissipated.
Chu Yang let out a long sigh. With a flip of his hand, he put away the Sword of Calamity, looking desolate. He said, "It's true that this thing is a treasure. Since none of you are outsiders, and you know who I am, I won't hide anything from you. Haha … However, what you don't know is … the identity of the master of Calamity Sword. It's really the biggest trap in all of history. "
"The biggest trap in all of history?" Lan Ruo and the others were stunned.
"That's right." Chu Yang drank a cup of wine and said bleakly, "It's true that the Calamity Sword can rule the world. However … without power, even with the Calamity Sword, what is it? What use is it? I only found out after I got the Calamity Sword. There is also a backlash! "
"Backlash?!" Lan Ruo and the others were shocked. There was a backlash from the Calamity Sword? This was the first time they had heard of it … It was indeed mysterious.
"That's right. The Calamity Sword has a mission. Once it recognizes its master, it starts immediately. If it can't complete it, its soul will dissipate and it will never be able to reincarnate. "
Chu Yang's expression was solemn. "It's like a whip, lashing the sword master forward. However … to complete the mission, one has to unify the Heavens … And to unify the Heavens, one has to face the big clans! Haha … That's practically impossible. "
Lan Ruo comforted him sincerely. "There will always be a way."
"It's difficult …" Chu Yang let out a bitter laugh.
The five of them felt as if their hearts were on fire.
Difficult? It's precisely because you think it's difficult that we can do things easily.
"There's nothing difficult in this world. As long as you put your heart into it, there's nothing you can't do!" Lan Ruo comforted him. "Brother Chu, there's no need to be anxious. You will succeed."
"How difficult!" Chu Yang only shook his head.
"Brother Chu, this …" Lan Ruo felt that the time was about right. He decided to go straight to the point. "Brother Chu, we can work together!"
He looked at Chu Yang's face. "And Brother Chu should also be able to guess that the reason why we have been planning for so long in the Lower Three Heavens is to work together with Brother Chu. This is the only reason!"
Chu Yang sighed. "Of course I know. It's just that this matter is extremely dangerous. Even if the Lan Clan helps me, the final outcome is very likely to implicate your entire clan … Brother Lan, you have to be careful about this matter! "
Lan Ruo smiled confidently and said, "Brother Chu, you don't have to worry about this. How can one who wants to achieve great things not have any sacrifices?"
He paused for a moment and asked somewhat anxiously, "But how many brothers does the Lord Sword Master already have?"
Chu Yang revealed a warm smile and said, "At the moment, there are already seven."
There were still two places left!
Lan Ruo was elated. At the same time, he was also scared. So fast! Ever since the appearance of the Heavenly Phenomenon Tribulation Sword Master, it had only been two years and there were already seven tribulations!
If he was slower by a step …
Then he wouldn't even be able to catch up to the heat.
The eyes of Lan Xinhua and the others also lit up at the same time.
There was really hope for the Lan Clan!
Lan Ruo wanted to suppress the excitement in his heart but he couldn't hold it in anymore. He raised his cup and said, "If Brother Chu doesn't mind, I am willing to follow you and accompany you to create great things together!"
Chu Yang pondered and didn't speak for a long time.
Everyone didn't rush him and just waited quietly. However, everyone held their breaths.
Chu Yang's reaction was very normal. Everyone was very assured. On the contrary, if Chu Yang agreed without hesitation, everyone would be worried.
Tribulation!
How could it be decided so easily?
After a long while, Chu Yang smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Lan has really given me a difficult problem … The few brothers in the past all got to know each other unintentionally and then went through trials and tribulations together for a long time before they acknowledged each other … Brother Lan is really the first to directly bring it up like this."
Chu Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Lan Ruo also smiled bitterly and said, "I don't have a choice either … Brother Chu should understand my difficulties …"
Chu Yang nodded. "Of course I understand. But … this matter, can you let me think about it for a while? Anyway, we can't go up now. Let's just play around in the Lower Three Heavens and make a decision after a period of time. How about that? "
Lan Ruo was overjoyed. "That would be the best!"
He knew that since Chu Yang had said so, he basically wouldn't reject him. The following period of time would just be a test for him and it would depend on his performance.
Lan Xinhua and the others were also relieved at once.
Speaking of social performance, how could Lan Ruo, as the number one duke of the Lan Clan, be bad? After such a long time, if he still couldn't get Chu Yang's approval after deliberately trying to befriend him, then Lan Ruo should really buy a piece of tofu and kill himself.
The atmosphere that followed was really lively. Everyone shook their cups and ate and drank to their heart's content. Their choice of words also seemed a lot more intimate.
Lan Ruo's performance was definitely praiseworthy.
He didn't appear to be very eager or fawning. Instead, he was very sincere. Compared to earlier, there was obviously more closeness. However, he gave others a kind of feeling — I am me, I am one of a kind.
This kind of feeling was the most pleasing to the eye.
Lan Ruo naturally had his own plans. Looking at the current situation, I naturally have the confidence to become one of the tribulations. However, there are also big and small tribulations.
How should I raise my status and strive to become one of the top three … Or rather, become the leader of the tribulations …
That way, in the future, I will be an existence like the Ye Clan in the Upper Three Heavens. As for the other clans … Hehe, my Lan Clan is such a powerful force. When we unify the Upper Three Heavens, our foundation will also be a hundred times stronger than those newly established clans!
By then … Where will there be any big clans? I'll just swallow up all those clans directly …
During the meal, Chu Yang's gaze intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Lan Ruo's neck a few times before he looked away. Everyone only thought that he was sizing up Lan Ruo and instead looked forward to it.
This was even more so for Lan Ruo himself. Every time Chu Yang's gaze swept over him, he would always act as if nothing had happened and talk cheerfully. He appeared to be brilliant, knowledgeable, elegant and charming.
In the depths of Chu Yang's eyes, a hint of invisible heartache flashed past. He smiled and said, "Big clans are very powerful indeed."
One could understand the meaning of a song.
The moment he said this, Lan Ruo instantly realized that the real test had come!
Chu Yang was clearly probing him to see how much he understood about the big clans.
Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle!
"Big Brother is right." Lan Ruo changed his words very naturally. He smiled and said, "Big clans, every clan has ten thousand years of foundation. They are really not to be trifled with."
Chu Yang listened with great interest. "Oh?" To Chu Yang, this was the first time that a core member of a big clan had introduced the clan's strength in detail without any reservations!
Chu Yang listened especially attentively!
Lan Ruo perked up. He said, "Let's take our Lan Clan as an example …" As he spoke, he started to introduce his clan eloquently, including the number of Supreme Martial Artists, their cultivation levels, how much wealth, how much manpower, how many people could be of great use, how many people were both intelligent and brave, who was the most important person … and so on and so forth. He revealed everything, big and small!
