Mr. Lu had completely regarded Chu Xiu as one of his own, so it could be said that he told Chu Xiu everything he knew. He directly told Chu Xiu about the cause and effect of the matter.
The founding emperor of Eastern Qi, Lü Hau Chang, was not the most famous emperor of Eastern Qi, nor was he the most outstanding emperor, but he was the emperor with the most difficult background.
The previous emperor of Eastern Qi died early in an accident and did not leave an heir, causing internal strife in the royal family of Eastern Qi. It could be said that rivers of blood flowed. In the end, even some forces of the Eastern Qi imperial court were involved, which caused some of the power of Eastern Qi to be greatly damaged.
In the end, a Great Ancestor of the royal family of Eastern Qi, who had been cultivating in seclusion for many years, personally intervened, and only then did the matter completely calm down. The result was that Lü Hau Chang, who had low cultivation talent and relatively mediocre abilities, was chosen from the many direct descendants of the royal family to be the emperor.
And the first thing that Lü Hau Chang did when he just inherited the throne was to have sons, and he worked hard to have sons.
The previous emperor had learned a lesson from his mistakes. He had no children, which led to the instability of the throne, and it could be said that he was harming others and himself.
As a result, Lü Hau Chang did nothing for so many years, and his greatest achievement was that he had more than 30 sons, and now he had easily lived to the age of 80, but he had no intention of abdicating the throne.
Lü Hau Chang was mediocre in ability, but his sons were not mediocre, especially those who were ranked at the top.
The current case of Qiu Zhensheng originated from the struggle between the Crown Prince of Eastern Qi and the Second Prince.
Lü Hau Chang had been on the throne for a little too long. Although he had appointed the Crown Prince long ago, it had indirectly given some opportunities to the other princes, especially Lü Longguang, the Second Prince of Eastern Qi, whose ambition and ability were no less than that of the Crown Prince, had long wanted to replace him.
Because of the Second Prince's domineering attitude, the Crown Prince felt a sense of crisis and kept searching for allies in Eastern Qi.
Jiang Wenyuan was one of the Crown Prince's allies. The other was a hall master of the White Tiger Hall. In the end, the hall master was unexpectedly killed not long after agreeing to the Crown Prince's request. This caused the Crown Prince to change his target in a hurry and set his eyes on the Pegasus Farm's owner, Qiu Zhensheng.
A month ago, when Qiu Zhensheng went to the Dragon Assembly Pavilion, the people he invited were the Crown Prince's people. They wanted to rope Qiu Zhensheng into the Crown Prince's side, but they were rejected by Qiu Zhensheng.
Later on, the Crown Prince secretly investigated Qiu Zhensheng and accidentally found out that Qiu Zhensheng had secretly contacted the Second Prince.
To be fair, the Pegasus Farm was very important to Eastern Qi, but Qiu Zhensheng himself was not.
After all, Qiu Zhensheng was just a warrior in the realm of Oneness of Heaven and Men. A warrior in this realm was considered a great master in Jianghu and a respected existence. But in the entire Eastern Qi imperial court, he could only be regarded as the backbone force.
For example, Wang Jin, the Deputy Director, and Fang Zhenqi, the General, were both in the realm of Oneness of Heaven and Men, which was not rare in the Eastern Qi imperial court.
Therefore, even though he knew that Qiu Zhensheng had turned to the Second Prince, the Crown Prince did not want to kill Qiu Zhensheng. Jiang Wenyuan sent Mr. Lu to kill Qiu Zhensheng because he wanted to muddy the waters and prevent the Second Prince's strength from surpassing the Crown Prince too much, so that the Eastern Qi imperial family would begin to kill each other.
After hearing this, Chu Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief. He did not expect that this matter really had something to do with him.
The butterfly effect was very terrifying. If the Hall Leader of White Tiger Hall had not died, the Crown Prince would not have thought of recruiting Qiu Zhensheng, and naturally, this series of events would not have happened.
Speaking of which, Qiu Zhensheng had died because of him. This was really a joke of fate.
However, at this time, Chu Xiu suddenly thought of something. He asked, "By the way, when you fought with Qiu Zhensheng, did you feel that there was something wrong with him? After the autopsy in Guanzhong Torture Room, I found that Qiu Zhensheng had been poisoned by July Begonia before. "
Mr. Lu said with a smile, "Of course I found out. Although Qiu Zhensheng was born in the wilderness, he was not a nobody. I thought it would take some effort to kill him, but I didn't expect it to be so easy. I thought it was Jiang Wenyuan who did it secretly, but later I found out that it was not Jiang Wenyuan's means. "
Chu Xiu nodded. This matter was really as Cheng Zhouhai had predicted. The person who poisoned Qiu Zhensheng and the person who killed him were not the same person. It seemed that there were still some secrets behind this.
Mr. Lu asked, "I killed him, and now Jiang Wenyuan wants to kill you. What are you going to do?"
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "Senior, don't worry. This matter will not involve the Phaseless Demon Sect. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with the Phaseless Demon Sect.
In fact, if Jiang Wenyuan didn't kill me this time, I wouldn't care about him. When the matter is found to be related to Jiang Wenyuan, it will involve the battle between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, so I don't have to care about it.
But this time, Jiang Wenyuan wants to kill me. If I let him go, he might want to kill me a second time! "
In the Land of Eastern Qi, Jiang Wenyuan was an extremely special existence. Although he was still courting death, it was undeniable that the power that Jiang Wenyuan could use was not ordinary.
Now that he was working with the Phaseless Demon Sect, he could use the Phaseless Demon Sect to help him, but in fact, Jiang Wenyuan also had great experts in the Oneness of Heaven and Man Realm under his command, and there was more than one.
Mr. Lu said, "Since you have the idea, it's fine. As a member of the Holy Church, if you need my help, you can contact me at any time. Don't be shy.
And if your identity is exposed in the Guanzhong Torture Room, don't be afraid. You can come to the Phaseless Demon Sect.
Although the Holy Church has been destroyed, the people of the Holy Church are still here. They will not let you have no place to stay. "
Chu Xiu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Senior."
Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "You're welcome. Now that the Holy Church has fallen to this point, not to mention that you are a direct descendant of the Holy Church, even if you want to join the Phaseless Demon Sect halfway, the Phaseless Demon Sect will treat you the same way."
As he spoke, Mr. Lu pointed at the place behind Chu Xiu, and a mysterious look appeared in his eyes. He said in a low voice, "There's a little mouse behind us. His ability to hide is not bad, and even I was almost fooled. Do as you see fit."
After saying that, Mr. Lu directly left. A strange look appeared in Chu Xiu's eyes. His body moved, and the Internal Binding Seal burst out. His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in a small alley behind him. What appeared in front of him was Chu Xiaode, who had a look of panic on his face, and was ready to escape at any time!
At this moment, Chu Xiaode could be said to be extremely regretful. He regretted that he had to come over to watch out of curiosity.
Previously, when Chu Xiu was strolling around the Ji State Prefecture, Chu Xiaode was actually doing the same. However, he did not deliberately follow Chu Xiu, but he accidentally saw Chu Xiu's back.
At that time, Chu Xiaode was just about to say hello to Chu Xiu, but in the end, he saw Chu Xiu quickly leaving with a black shadow. Chu Xiaode was puzzled, and directly followed.
He was Chu Simo's adopted son, but in reality, he did not cultivate many Western Region techniques. He only obtained one technique by accident, and it could increase his speed and conceal his aura.
It was because of this technique that he could secretly hear so many things not far away from Mr. Lu and Chu Xiu.
However, the things that Chu Simo heard were a little too shocking. The truth of Qiu Zhensheng's death was one thing, but it was just the internal strife of the royal family. After all, he had been in the Guanzhong torture room for so many years, and he had seen even more bizarre cases.
However, the following conversation about the Kunlun Devil Cult between Chu Xiu and the black-robed man almost made Chu Xiaode cry out in shock.
He never expected that Chu Xiu would be related to the Kunlun Devil Cult! This was a matter of life and death!
It was because he was shocked by this news that Chu Xiaode's state of mind fluctuated a little, causing a flaw in his concealment, which was discovered by Mr. Lu.
Chu Xiu looked at Chu Xiaode and said expressionlessly, "If I say that I actually have nothing to do with the Kunlun Devil Cult, and that I was just lying to that person just now, would you believe me?"
Chu Xiaode gave Chu Xiu a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "If I say that I believe you, will you believe me?"
Chu Xiaode said it like a tongue twister, but in reality, even if he said he believed it, how could Chu Xiu believe him?
Chu Xiu looked around and said indifferently, "No martial artists will come here. You know my strength. Are you confident that you can escape from me?"
Chu Xiaode's heart sank. Not to mention Chu Xiu, who had reached the Three Flower Realm, even Chu Xiu, who was in the Physical Invulnerability Realm during the competition in the Guanzhong torture room, was an existence that he could only look up to.
Li Tianhao easily defeated and humiliated him, but Chu Xiu easily crippled Li Tianhao. There was no need to explain the difference in strength.
Just as Chu Xiaode was about to fight to the death, Chu Xiu suddenly said, "Do you want to live or die?"
Chu Xiaode's eyes froze, and he said subconsciously, "Of course I want to live."
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "Since you want to live, I'll give you a chance to live.
It doesn't matter whether I'm a member of the Kunlun Devil Cult or not. Since you've seen all this, I can't let you go so easily.
In the past, the Kunlun Devil Cult had a secret seal called the Holy Fire Seal. Its shape was based on the Rootless Holy Fire at the peak of West Kunlun.
I know what this seal looks like. Let me leave the Holy Fire Seal on your arm. That way, you and I will both become members of the Kunlun Devil Cult, and we will both have something on each other. Naturally, I won't have to kill you. "
Chu Xiaode's expression suddenly changed when he heard this, and he said angrily, "If you do this, won't I become your slave, Chu Xiu? You have something on me in your hands, and I will be at your beck and call. If that's the case, you might as well kill me!"
From Chu Xiaode's point of view, Chu Xiu was originally a member of the Kunlun Devil Cult. Even if he was discovered, he could join the Phaseless Demon Sect and turn from a young hero in the Guanzhong torture room into a hero of the devil path.
Chu Xiaode, on the other hand, was purely wronged. His weakness was in Chu Xiu's hands all his life, and he was at his beck and call. In Chu Xiaode's opinion, this was a fate worse than death!
