"Hmm?" Master Lu's eyes lit up, "Let's go and have a look."
"Hmm!" Xiatian nodded.
Master Lu then walked out. He remembered that he passed by a house just now, and there was a person who went in.
Dong dong dong!
Master Lyu knocked on the door of a house.
"Is there anyone inside? I'm the new city lord, and I want to know the situation. "
Creak!
The door was opened, and the person inside looked at Master Lu strangely, "Come in."
"Thank you." Master Lu took the lead and walked in. Xiatian followed beside him. As for his eight men, they guarded the door and did not come in. After all, the space here was limited.
"There's someone who would come to this godforsaken place. You're going to die here." The person sat down and said rudely.
"Eh!" Master Lu scratched his head awkwardly, then Asked, "What happened here? Why did it become like this? "
"Do you see the mountain behind you?" The person Asked.
"Hmm." Master Lu nodded.
"In the past, the mountain was rich in herbs and fruits, and there were treasures everywhere. But 500 years ago, for some reason, all the plants began to wither, and even the trees began to die. The beasts on the mountain had no food, so they ran down the mountain to attack people. The people at the foot of the mountain either died or ran away. That's how it became like this." The person said casually.
"It's been 500 years." Master Lu was stunned. He thought that this place had only been here for one or two hundred years. He did not expect that 500 years had passed.
"Yes, it's been 500 years. This place has been completely ruined. The roads leading to other cities have all been destroyed by those Yao beasts. Even the bandits nearby are not willing to come close to us, because they will starve to death," the man said.
"Then why don't you leave?" Master Lu Asked.
"I'm used to it." The person said evasively. Obviously, he did not tell the whole story.
Master Lu wanted to say something, but Xiatian pulled him, "Thank you, we won't disturb you."
"Hmm." The person nodded.
Then, Xiatian and Master Lyu walked out.
"Brother, why don't you let me ask?" Asked Eldest Young Master Lu.
"That's enough. It's not good to ask more questions. Let's go to the other restaurants. Remember, only ask the same questions as before," Xiatian reminded.
Although Young Master Lu did not understand what Xiatian meant, he still did as he was told. The next few families were the same. Young Master Lu listened to Xiatian's words and did not ask any more questions. He just directly left. When the two of them went to the eighth house.
Xiatian said, "Don't go."
"What did you find?" Eldest Young Master Lu Asked.
"These people are all experts. Moreover, they must have been hunted down or committed a major crime, so they hid here." Xiatian said.
"Oh." Eldest Young Master Lu finally understood, "Brother, what should we do next?"
Eldest Young Master Lu was completely confused. When he walked out of the family, he was full of enthusiasm. But now, all of that was gone. There was no place for him to show his enthusiasm.
The only person he could respect now was Xiatian. He felt that Xiatian was not only powerful, but also very smart.
"Let's go to the mountain and have a look. Don't you want to know what happened here 500 years ago?" Xiatian Asked.
"Okay!" Eldest Young Master Lu said.
"By the way, they called you Eldest Young Master Lu. Lianyun Mountain Range is under the jurisdiction of the Lu family. Are you from the Lu family?" Xiatian heard from them before that the so-called Lianyun Mountain Range was under the jurisdiction of the Lu family.
"Yes." Eldest Young Master Lu nodded.
"Since you are from the Lu family, why were you sent to such a far place? Did you offend the main family? "Xiatian Asked.
"I am from the main family." Eldest Young Master Lu said.
"Eh!" Xiatian was stunned. Someone from the main family was sent to such a place. This was not in line with the rules of the big family.
"I was seriously injured when I was young and could not cultivate. I was not welcomed in the main family. Moreover, I am the eldest young master of the main family. There are countless people watching me. I don't like that kind of scheming, so I proposed to leave the family and come out to manage a city. Then, the elders in the family arranged this place for me. I did not expect it to be like this." Eldest Young Master Lu shook his head helplessly.
"Have you heard of the Dark Night Temple?" Xiatian Asked.
He suspected that the Dark Night Temple was a big force, so there was no record of the ordinary forces in the Lianyun Mountain Range.
"I have heard of it. The Dark Night Temple is a big force in the Tianyuan Continent. There are many geniuses there. It is said that they have been in the Tianyuan Continent for more than 100,000 years." Eldest Young Master Lu said.
Phew!
Xiatian let out a long breath. Finally, it was the right thing to do.
"What is the difference between the Lu family and the Dark Night Temple?" Xiatian Asked.
"The nature is different. The Lu family is under the rule of the dynasty. We are under the rule of the dynasty. Although the Dark Night Temple is under the rule of the dynasty, they do not have much power." Eldest Young Master Lu explained.
"If I help you become the head of the Lu family, will you help me deal with the Dark Night Temple?" Xiatian Asked.
Thump!
Eldest Young Master Lu knelt on the ground. "I, Lü Fengxian, swear that as long as Mr Xia is willing to help me, I will share the honor and disgrace with Mr Xia. I will shed my last drop of blood for him."
Direct!
Eldest Young Master Lu was very direct.
Even Xiatian did not expect Eldest Young Master Lu to be so direct and straightforward.
He did not even give him a chance to react.
And this Eldest Young Master Lu's name was too awesome.
He was actually called Lü Fengxian.
From the moment Eldest Young Master Lu saw Xiatian, he knew that Xiatian was definitely a person who would do great things.
He was not willing to stay here for the rest of his life. And he did not compete with others in the main family because he could not compete. He could not cultivate and no one supported him, so he could not compete with other young masters at all.
"Okay, let's do it." Xiatian directly helped Eldest Young Master Lu up.
"From now on, you are the deputy city lord of Luoshi City. Everything in Luoshi City is under your control." Eldest Young Master Lu said, and then he waved to the people behind him.
"Greetings, deputy city lord." The eight people bowed directly.
"Let's go and see what secrets there are in this mountain." Xiatian said directly.
"Okay." Eldest Young Master Lu nodded.
"This is really a challenging task." Xiatian's face showed a smile.
