Jiang Wenyuan was right when he said that a fine bird chose a good tree to nest in. However, the problem was that Jiang Wenyuan was not a good tree. If Chu Xiu really chose to side with Jiang Wenyuan, he would be courting death.
One could tell from Jiang Wenyuan's current behavior that he had been walking on the path of courting death without stopping.
If Chu Xiu really sided with Jiang Wenyuan, he would probably end up in a miserable state. He would probably die even faster.
Moreover, Chu Xiu also had his own ambitions. A fine bird chose a good tree to nest in. All along, Chu Xiu had not wanted to be a fine bird, but a divine tree that could attract countless fine birds!
Therefore, after hearing Jiang Wenyuan's straightforward solicitation, Chu Xiu's expression turned solemn. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I am ashamed to accept it. However, when I, Chu Xiu, was at my lowest point, it was the Guanzhong Torture Room that took me in. Although I, Chu Xiu, am not a good person, I know the principle of repaying kindness. Therefore, forgive me for not accepting Your Highness's solicitation. "
After speaking, Chu Xiu cupped his hands and turned to leave.
Jiang Wenyuan looked at Chu Xiu's back as he left. He clenched his fists and said coldly, "I gave you face, but you don't want it!"
Chu Xiu's rejection reminded him of the time when he had personally tried to recruit Guan Siyu and been rejected by her.
Although Chu Xiu's words were tactful and not as blunt as Guan Siyu's, the meaning revealed was the same. That was, "I don't like you."
Eastern Qi was the strongest among the three countries. Eastern Qi occupied the most prosperous land in the world, the Central Plains. This country, this world, should belong to him!
If not for the surnamed Lu who had usurped the throne of the Jiang family, if he represented the Eastern Qi royal family to recruit Chu Xiu, how could Chu Xiu refuse? How could he dare to refuse?
Jiang Wenyuan's usually kind eyes were now filled with gloom. At the same time, he thought to himself that he would take back what belonged to him sooner or later. At that time, whether it was Guan Siyu or Chu Xiu, they would have to submit to Eastern Qi. Not the Lu family's Eastern Qi, but the Jiang family's!
At this time, the people on the seventh floor of the Dragon Assembly Pavilion were also surprised to see Chu Xiu leaving. they did not know what was going on.
The Dragon Assembling Pavilion was filled with arrays. Not only could it prevent warriors from fighting here, but it also had the effect of transmitting sound. Chu Xiu and Jiang Wenyuan sat in a corner. No one present could hear what they were saying. They only saw the two of them talking nicely just now. In the end, they turned hostile in an instant. What was going on?
The Dragon Assembly Pavilion was full of arrays. Not only could they prevent warriors from fighting here, but they also had the effect of recording. Chu Xiu and Jiang Wenyuan were sitting in a corner. No one present could hear what they were saying. They only saw that the two of them were having a good conversation, but in the blink of an eye, they had fallen out. What was going on?
Jiang Wenyuan was the memorial arch that the Lu royal family had set up. As a prince with a different surname, he had lived better than a portion of the orthodox Lu royal family. It was clearly not a wise move to offend Jiang Wenyuan in a place like Dongqi.
On the first floor, Li Bu San was still waiting. When he saw Chu Xiu come out, he quickly smiled and said, "Young Master, why did you come out so quickly?"
Chu Xiu looked up and said indifferently, "If I don't come out soon, I'm afraid I will be chased away. Let's go. Find me a comfortable inn. I want to stay."
Li Bu San was a little confused. Of course, if he knew that Chu Xiu had offended the powerful Jiang Wenyuan in Eastern Qi, he would probably be so scared that he would return the purple gold to Chu Xiu and never come to Chu Xiu again.
At night, Jiang Wenyuan sat alone on the ninth floor of the Dragon Assembly Pavilion, drinking wine. At this time, the door of the ninth floor was pushed open. Mister Lu, who had personally talked to Jiang Wenyuan during the day, pushed open the door and entered.
Seeing Jiang Wenyuan's gloomy face, Mister Lu smiled and said, "Prince, I heard that you failed to recruit Chu Xiu?"
Jiang Wenyuan snorted coldly and said, "He is the same as Guan Siyu. He doesn't know what is good for him! Based on the foundation of the Guanzhong Torture Room, I want to see if Chu Xiu will regret it in the future! "
Mister Lu shook his head and said, "Forget it. Prince, please calm down. He is just a junior martial artist. Every year, there are many young talents in the pugilistic world. However, there are not many who can make it to the end. By the way, Prince, how are the preparations on your side? The people from the Hidden Sword Mountain Villa have already arrived. We need to prepare everything before the God Weapon Conference begins. "
Jiang Wenyuan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. I have been operating in Eastern Qi for so many years. Can I not even handle such a small matter?"
Mister Lu cupped his hands and said, "Then this one can rest assured. Although this is a small matter for Your Highness, it is a big matter for us. If this cooperation is successful, in the future, if Your Highness has something to ask of us, we can still cooperate."
Jiang Wenyuan nodded and suddenly asked, "Actually, I don't understand why you are doing this. Dugu Weiwei has been dead for hundreds of years, and the Kunlun Devil Cult has long been destroyed. Look at the Moon Worshipping Cult in Miaojiang, and then look at the Evil Pole Sect in Northern Plains. These demonic sects that used to rely on the Kunlun Devil Cult are now living very comfortably. If you learn from them, you don't need to hide like you are now. You can only act in the dark. "
As soon as Jiang Wenyuan's words left his mouth, Mister Lu's expression abruptly changed. His gaze became extremely gloomy, and the aura around him became incomparably furious. Strong winds swept out, and true energy roared. This Mister Lu, who seemed extremely ordinary, was actually a great expert who was one with the world!
"Shut up! As long as the Sacred Fire is not extinguished, the Devil Lord will not die! At the peak of West Kunlun, even if the bald donkeys of the Bodhi Zen Monastery used the Six Paths of Buddha Reincarnation Formation to seal it, the Rootless Sacred Fire was still burning. Who would dare say that the Devil Lord was dead? Even the Sovereign List of Wind Sweeping Tower has a place for the Devil Lord! Ning Xuanji is known as an immortal, but he is also a mortal. He alone can't kill the Devil Lord! "
Just as Mister Lu's aura burst forth, several auras also burst forth from the Dragon Gatherer Pavilion. Among them was the Unity of Heaven and Man, as well as the Five Qis Unifications. Clearly, as soon as Mister Lu made a move, they would immediately attack.
Jiang Wenyuan was also shocked by Mister Lu's reaction. He did not expect that his curious question would make Mister Lu, who had always been extremely calm, so agitated.
Seeing this, Jiang Wenyuan quickly said, "Mister Lu, please don't take it to heart. I was just saying without thinking. I didn't mean to offend anyone or the Kunlun Devil Cult."
At this time, Mister Lu also retracted his aura and returned to his previous calm self. He cupped his hands at Jiang Wenyuan and said, "Forgive me, Your Highness. I was a little too agitated."
Jiang Wenyuan chuckled and said, "It's fine. I was too rash just now."
With that, Mister Lu walked out of the Dragon Gatherer Pavilion. Only then did Jiang Wenyuan let out a long sigh of relief. He took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.
In terms of cultivation level, he was only at the Innate Stage. Although his status was there, strength was still strength. He still felt pressured when facing a Unity of Heaven and Man expert who was truly enraged.
At this time, Uncle Qi walked in from the side with a cup of ginseng tea. He placed the teacup on Jiang Wenyuan's table and said hesitantly, "Your Highness, these guys are related to the Kunlun Devil Cult of the past. They're not a good group. Isn't it a little bad for us to work with them and be so close to them?"
Jiang Wenyuan picked up the ginseng tea and drank it in one gulp. He let out a long sigh and said, "If there were other people I would work with, I wouldn't want to work with them either. But now, who else can I work with? The Mo family of the Mirror Lake Manor?
On the first day that Mo Yezi returned to the Mirror Lake Manor from Jianghu, this king personally went to greet him, giving him enough face. In the end, that old fart refused to even refine a weapon for this king. He even said that this king was not worthy of the weapon he refined. Does he really think that this king cares about the weapon he refined?
And that Hidden Sword Villa, this Prince found three of the weapons from the world's famous sword manuals, just so that the disciples of Hidden Sword Villa could become my swordsmanship instructors. In the end, Hidden Sword Villa only sent a few disciples with different surnames. Do they think this Prince is an idiot?
Even that young warrior, Chu Xiu, didn't give me face! "
At this point, Jiang Wenyuan's face was already cold. "Whether it's in the court or in the Jianghu, these guys are very powerful. Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for me to work with them. I can only find another way.
Uncle Qi, you've been with me for so many years. You should know what's going on with the Jiang family. I don't have any talent for cultivation. I was only able to reach the Xiantian realm because of the accumulation of elixirs.
However, I don't have any talent for cultivation. My father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and all my children don't have any talent for cultivation. Don't tell me you can't figure out the reason? "
Jiang Wenyuan's face was already filled with malevolence. "All these years, my Jiang family can't even cultivate our family's secret techniques. We can only watch as the Lu family cultivates our Jiang family's' Nine Dragons Emperor Supreme Technique '!
The Lu family wants my Jiang family to live happily for the rest of their lives. How could it be so easy? Uncle Qi, I can never forget what my father said to me before he died. Don't forget that my Jiang family is destined to be a royal family!
In the past, when my Jiang family's founding emperor descended into this world, there was a thunderstorm. Nine dragons coiled in the void. After passing down the Nine Dragons Emperor Supreme Technique, they flew into the sky.
When the founding emperor came of age, he swept through the world and ended the war between the small countries in the Central Plains. Only then did the Great Qi Dynasty flourish!
My Jiang family should be the ruler of this world. We are born to be a royal family! "
Uncle Qi knelt on one knee in front of Jiang Wenyuan and said, "If Your Highness hadn't helped me back then, this old man would already be a skeleton in a grave. This old man has no other requests in this life. I'm only willing to go through fire and water for Your Highness, even if I have to die ten thousand times! "
Following Uncle Qi's words, the surrounding people also chimed in, "We're willing to go through fire and water for Your Highness, even if we have to die ten thousand times!"
A silent smile appeared on Jiang Wenyuan's face. This was the reason why he, the King of Peace and Happiness, didn't have to continue living in peace!
