"You two won't be able to go to the place I'm going. We'll talk about it when your cultivation catches up. Otherwise, just stay here obediently. " Lu Xiaotian said. Even an early Nascent Soul cultivator with a weak foundation would feel uncomfortable in the Black Prison, let alone these two little guys.
Joe Yu pouted unhappily when she saw Lu Xiaotian's firm attitude.
"Now, tell me why Hou Lie captured you two." Lu Xiaotian asked Xiang Hua after returning to the small courtyard in Huya. He knew Joe Yu very well and had watched her grow up. The only special thing about her was her Wood Spirit Body. However, Joe Yu's cultivation level was too low, so her Wood Spirit Body was far from useful.
Hou Lie naturally wanted Xiang Hua's secrets. Back when Lu Xiaotian was living in seclusion in Hongyu Town, Xiang Hua had asked to be his disciple. At that time, he had taken out some things that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator could not possess. Xiang Hua had not had any fortuitous encounters in the past few years. Hou Lie had most likely placed Xiang Hua under house arrest because of this.
Moreover, he had asked Xiao Jingfeng, Mo Zhanqing, and the others to intervene. It was most likely not simply because of their friendship with Hou Lie.
"Master is wise. Disciple once gave Master an ancient armor. The other party most likely came for this item. They just wanted to force me to tell them the whereabouts of this item. However, before they could ask more, Master heard the news and rushed over. I caught them off guard. " Xiang Hua said truthfully, "Back then, this item was obtained by me and a few other cultivators on an adventure. At that time, there were six of us. Four of us had already died, and one of us was missing. I didn't expect to meet him again in the Zhenwei Marquis' residence. Back then, I only felt that the ancient armor was somewhat strange, so I gave it to Master. However, I don't know the real reason why the other party asked about it. "
Lu Xiaotian nodded. Even if Hou Lie and the others knew the use of the ancient armor, they would not tell Xiang Hua, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. As for Joe Yu, he was probably implicated. Originally, Xiang Hua had admired Hou Xiyu. But at the time, although Xiang Hua was the heir of the Prince of Changning's household, his status was actually low. Xiang Hua had trained hard for more than ten years, but he hadn't expected that Hou Xiyu would end up with Xiao Yang of the Xiao Clan. Instead, he got himself into such a huge mess. However, seeing that Xiang Hua didn't seem to be hurt by this, there was no need to say anything more. After coming back to his senses, Lu Xiaotian thought to himself that he wasn't a very competent master.
"Go find your Martial Uncle, he will take care of you. Today, I had an argument with Xiao Jinlei, so I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future. After meeting up with your Martial Uncle, I will live in seclusion. If there is an emergency and I have no time to rush back, I can temporarily seek refuge with the Mang Xiao Family. "Lu Xiaotian thought of Xiao Jinlei's cold eyes and knew that Xiao Jinlei would definitely not let this matter go.
"Xiao Jinlei? Xiao Clan's Patriarch? "Xiang Hua was shocked and looked at Lu Xiaotian in a daze.
"Who else could it be besides this person? Senior Martial Brother, didn't you see that Xiao Jinfeng was beaten down by Uncle Beard? "Joe Yu said as if it was a matter of course.
"I have implicated Master and made a great enemy for Master. This disciple deserves ten thousand deaths!" Xiang Hua prostrated himself on the ground and shivered. Ever since Xiao Jinlei became famous, his reputation wasn't just as simple as being a Great Cultivator. Even other Great Cultivators weren't willing to provoke Xiao Jinlei. Because of this, Xiao Jinlei was vicious and merciless. Once he made a move, he rarely left anyone alive. Ever since Xiao Jinlei became famous, he had made many enemies, but none of them could do anything to him. Even Xiang Hua knew how powerful this person was.
"These aren't things you should be thinking about. Since I've taken you in as my disciple, how can I just watch you get caught? You have to remember, if you don't have enough strength, try not to cause trouble. If you really run into trouble. Your position is limited, and the strength of the enemy is not a reason for you to be afraid. "
"Don't cause trouble, don't be afraid! This disciple will bear that in mind. " Xiang Hua prostrated himself on the ground again with a pious expression. Lu Xiaotian nodded and didn't stop Xiang Hua's actions. After receiving a few kowtows, his expression suddenly changed. He left the two of them to find Luo Qian and floated away.
Joe Yu looked at Xiang Hua, who was still prostrating himself on the ground, and found that his eyes were actually a little sparkling. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She had followed Lu Xiaotian since she was young. Joe Yu took Lu Xiaotian's doting for her as a matter of course, but he didn't know that Xiang Hua grew up in the Changning Commandery Prince's Mansion, where people's hearts were unpredictable. He was treated as an outsider. His mother died, his father let him do whatever he wanted, and his brother was at odds with him. Now, his master didn't hesitate to offend a Great Cultivator like Xiao Jinlei to protect him. How could Xiang Hua not be moved in his heart?
"Senior Martial Brother, you don't have to be so courteous. Although Uncle Beard looks cold, he has the best heart. Since Uncle Beard is willing to accept you as his disciple, it means he acknowledges you. No matter who the enemy is, Uncle Beard will protect us. Otherwise, why would Martial Uncle Luo risk his life to protect us just because we're Uncle Beard's juniors? " In front of Lu Xiaotian, Joe Yu always acted like a spoiled and unruly elf. However, behind his back, she was extremely protective of Lu Xiaotian.
However, when Xiang Hua heard this, he nodded in agreement. Birds of a feather flocked together. Once a person entered a noble family, it was as deep as the ocean. Back then, the Changning Commandery Prince's Mansion was filled with scheming and scheming people. However, the people around Lu Xiaotian, such as Xia Ji and his wife, focused on brewing wine, and Martial Uncle Luo Qian, focused on cultivation. He and Joe Yu were protected by these people. Xiang Hua, who had always been on guard, suddenly realized that during this period of time, he had never worried that the people around him would do anything to harm him.
Just as Huya sent Joe Yu and Xiang Hua to Luo Qian and Qiao Lan's place of cultivation, the small courtyard welcomed a new guest.
Lu Xiaotian stood quietly on a lawn in the small courtyard. He reached out and gently stroked the green cinnamon branches beside him. His eyelids lifted slightly. "Ever since we worked together several years ago, the two of us have never crossed paths. What business do you have with me today?"
"Brother Lu, it's been a long time. We can be said to have become friends after a fight. Just now at the Zhenyuan Commandery General's Mansion, I secretly protected you. Aren't you going to thank me?" A gorgeously dressed figure strolled into the small courtyard and stopped several dozen feet away from Lu Xiaotian. The newcomer was King Xuan, Xiang Yihang.
"I've already experienced King Xuan's scheming. You won't do anything useless. If you have something to say, say it," Lu Xiaotian said straightforwardly.
"Brother Lu is indeed a straightforward person. I'm sure you're wondering why Hou Lie and the people behind him would capture Xiang Hua and Joe Yu, two juniors," Xiang Yihang said with a slight smile.
"I'd like to hear the details." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"It's really for a piece of ancient armor." King Xuan looked at Lu Xiaotian with a burning gaze. "At that time, Xiang Hua and a few Foundation Establishment juniors were in a dangerous place. They were lucky and encountered a cultivator's arm that was bitten by a demonic beast. There was a Sumeru Ring on that arm. This person had also experienced great danger, but in the end, he was devoured by a demonic beast. However, his Sumeru Ring ended up in the hands of a few Foundation Establishment juniors. They divided it among themselves. Later on, they also encountered other dangers in this dangerous place. Some died, some were injured. However, according to another survivor, the ancient armor in the Sumeru Ring ended up in Xiang Hua's hands. "
