Yuanguang Yuan froze. Lu Sheng's question was clearly just to show his admiration for her. But then she smiled bitterly. Her parents were just ordinary members of the family who were proud of her. They were at most Double or Three-Vein, and their talent was limited.
Among the immediate family, there really wasn't anyone who could compare to her or even stand shoulder to shoulder with her. Not to mention a Divine Weapon Master. She was already the biggest pride of the family.
"No … no Divine Weapon Master …" Yuanguang Yuan knew she might have missed a rare opportunity, but she didn't want to lie, so she just told the truth. "But Little Sister Qin's father is a Divine Weapon Master."
"Looks like you haven't had a good life." Lu Sheng ignored her. A mere Divine Weapon Master wasn't worth his attention. He just felt that this Yuanguang Yuan had a good personality.
He waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave. But he kept talking to Yuanguang Yuan.
Yuanguang Yuan nodded slightly. Her eyes were lowered, and she looked a little sad. Although the six people in this circle were mostly from big families, there was only one important person in the family, and that was the youngest sister, Yuanguang Qin. Her father was an elder of the main family, and was in charge of a large part of the business in the Yin Capital. This was also why Yuanguang Qin was a bit willful and arrogant among the six of them, and no one could discipline her.
She only listened to Yuanguang Qin's Senior Apprentice Brother Yuan, whom she had a crush on.
"How about this, if anything happens, you can come to Autumn Moon County and ask for help from the Prime Devil Sect. Although I won't return to the Yuanguang Family, as the sect master of the Prime Devil Sect, it'll be easier for me to take care of small matters outside. Of course, in exchange … "Lu Sheng paused, and continued," After you rise in status, try to use the Yuanguang Family's external resources to lean towards the Prime Devil Sect. "
Because of his fear of the Divine Weapon, Lu Sheng didn't plan to return to the family, but that didn't mean he wouldn't work with people in the family.
This Yuanguang Yuan was also a candidate to test the waters.
She was young and had good aptitude. She needed resources the most when she was rising. At this time, if she could have a good external force to support her and supplement her strength in the family, it would be of great help to her status and strength in the family.
The Three Great Clans were not some benevolent family. The competition within them was so cruel that even the Three Sects outside couldn't compare. Every month, there would be an external mission that needed to be dealt with. At this time, it was time to compare the external strength of the family's disciples.
Yuanguang Qin was so spoiled because she had a good father who was in charge of the family's external resources business.
"Why me …?" Yuanguang Yuan lowered her head slightly.
"Because you needed it, because we happened to meet first. Because you're not trash, "Lu Sheng answered casually.
Yuanguang Yuan was stunned.
"Not trash …" This sentence instantly separated her from the rest of the six. In other words, the rest of them were all trash.
The external force … succeeded?
She had heard of other brothers and sisters in the clan who had done such things, but because her status was not high enough, she basically did not have any power to lean on.
Just because they couldn't see any great value in her, there were many other targets for the family to choose from. There was no need to choose her at all.
But now was different.
Yuanguang Yuan raised her head and looked straight into Lu Sheng's eyes.
The man in front of her was very dangerous. This kind of danger was not only in his strong appearance, but also in the special aura that seemed to surround her. She had only seen this kind of aura on the Great Elder of the main family.
Those old bastards from the Elder Council were all very powerful, and their auras were similar to this man in front of her.
"I agree." Although it was only a verbal agreement, for Yuanguang Yuan, this might be a chance to change her life in the future.
"But I can't give you much right now," she said quickly.
"That's okay, I don't need much."
Lu Sheng didn't talk to the others. These people couldn't even talk to him. Their courage and willpower were not up to standard. On the other hand, this Yuanguang Yuan had extraordinary courage. In the face of a threat, she dared to be the first to take responsibility. It was not hard to understand why she was the leader of the six of them.
After setting up a way to communicate with Yuanguang Yuan, Lu Sheng didn't make things difficult for them. He let them go.
Then, he turned to look at the forest fire that was spreading.
The fire had already spread from the original maple forest to the surroundings, and it was slowly turning into a forest fire.
Lu Sheng raised his head and looked at the sky that had been polluted by the black smoke. He frowned. He was about to get rid of this fire because of him.
Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the distance. It seemed that someone was coming.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw several figures dressed in black running from the hills in the distance. Their movements were agile and fast. From time to time, they would raise their hands and shoot out flare signals accompanied by sharp whistling sounds.
These people all had the insignia of the Autumn Moon County Capital's Youyin Sect on them. At the same time, they were dressed like the Yin Yang Agency of the court.
The person at the very front saw Lu Sheng standing there from afar, and hurriedly ran over.
"So it's Prefectural Master Lu of the Thousand Sun Sect." This person's name was Xu Jinsong, and he had the strength of a Six Vein Cultivator. He was considered an elite in the Yin Yang Agency. When the Turquoise Conch Agency found signs of a forest fire, as well as signs of a fight between elites, he immediately brought people to investigate.
Seeing Lu Sheng from afar, he understood that what was happening here had something to do with Prefectural Sect Master Lu of the Thousand Sun Sect.
He was an important figure in the Autumn Moon County, and even in the Moling Prefecture.
Although this Prefectural Sect Master Lu didn't like to go to the county capital and interact with other factions, he was the anchor of the Thousand Sun Dao Palace.
Especially when he personally fought back the Devil Army and stabilized the situation. After that battle, the name of Lu Sheng Prefectural Sect Master Lu had spread throughout the Moling Prefecture.
Some busybodies even rated Lu Sheng as one of the top ten elites in the Moling Prefecture.
Third, Xu Jinsong knew that this Lu Sheng Prefectural Sect Master Lu's strength was even greater than the rumors.
"Are you from the local Yin Yang Agency of the Autumn Moon County?" Lu Sheng asked.
"Yes, I am Xu Jinsong, the current deputy captain of the Yin Yang Agency's Earth Team. I'm here to investigate the forest fire," Xu Jinsong replied respectfully.
"The fire was caused by a fight between me and someone else. I will take care of it myself. Don't worry," Lu Sheng said calmly. "Also, there were Devil World elites here before. There were many traces left along the way. After I take care of the fire, remember to clean up the traces. Don't leave any clues. "
Did this person use us as a scavenger after the incident?
Xu Jinsong smiled bitterly in his mind, but he had to agree.
"It's only right that the three sects help the court fight against the Devil Army …" The team members behind him all had helpless expressions on their faces.
Lu Sheng didn't care what they were thinking. He turned around and faced the fire that was growing fiercer by the second.
He slowly pulled out the Wei River Sword from his back.
"It's too big for me to cover … I'm afraid I can't," the Wei River Sword answered helplessly.
After following Lu Sheng for some time, he had a rough idea of Lu Sheng's attitude. Hence, he was the most cooperative among all the Divine Weapons. He was also the one with the clearest mind. The wills of the other Divine Weapons were either muddle-headed, acting on their instincts, or extremely extreme. They were completely uncooperative.
The Wei River Sword didn't know what happened to these Divine Weapons, but he had seen Lu Sheng send them all into the opposite building. None of the Divine Weapons that went in ever came out …
"It's okay. You don't have to do anything, "Lu Sheng said casually. He only pulled out the sword to use the Divine Weapon to hide his true strength.
Lu Sheng never needed to rely on Divine Weapons. Not now, and not in the future.
He held the sword horizontally in front of him, and a dark red Winged Snake Triangle flashed between Lu Sheng's brows.
The entire Wei River Sword glowed with a blue light. The blue light grew brighter and brighter in the span of a few breaths.
"Snap."
Lu Sheng held the hilt with both hands and slowly raised it horizontally to the right.
"Morning Moon!"
Poof!
The blade shattered soundlessly, turning into countless dark blue specks of light that scattered in the air. The scattered specks of light quickly drifted toward the fire.
Following the sparks was a huge black shadow spreading out from under Lu Sheng's feet.
A huge dragon shadow that looked like a snake slithered silently towards the fire. The speed of the dragon shadow was almost the same as the blue sparks.
"No, this is … could this be!!?" The Wei River Sword suddenly exclaimed in disbelief.
Lu Sheng froze as well. He had only planned to use the Wei River Sword's Water Mist Attribute to extinguish the fire. However, the fire was spreading too far, at least a thousand meters, so he poured some Yang Essence into it.
If the power of a Divine Master was spread out and turned into something as sparse as this fire, it could easily spread out dozens of meters, let alone thousands of meters. In fact, if it had a special area of effect, it would be even more terrifying.
Back in the Great Song, a powerful Divine Weapon could wreak havoc on a large province. Although there were other factors, it was undeniable that a Divine Master, which was above normal Divine Weapons, was even more powerful.
What Lu Sheng didn't expect was that his use of the Wei River Sword would draw out Nie Xing's mark.
The Wei River Sword was a Divine Weapon left behind by the Wei River Water God. No one would believe that it had nothing to do with Nie Xing, the ancient Wei River Water God.
But Lu Sheng couldn't figure out why it would suddenly appear at this time.
The blue sparks and Nie Xing's dragon shadow rushed into the fire. Soon, the fire weakened and became smaller.
In just ten breaths of time, the entire forest fire had been completely extinguished, leaving only charred wreckage, and the ground was filled with thick smoke and water vapor.
Countless blue sparks flew back to Lu Sheng and formed back into the Wei River Sword, which floated in front of him.
Lu Sheng stared at the blade, but didn't reach out to grab it immediately. His gaze fell on the hilt of the Wei River Sword. Originally, there were only some ordinary patterns, but now it had become the image of a ferocious black dragon head.
"Nie Xing was awakened by your powerful True Essence," the old Wei River Sword said slowly. "Because of that, it recognized my part as the main part of the Wei River Sword, and all the other pieces can only be supplements."
"Interesting, there are still ordinary Divine Weapons that aren't afraid of me …" Lu Sheng still reached out to hold the hilt, and slowly put it back on his back.
It took only a dozen breaths for the fire to be extinguished.
Lu Sheng turned around and looked at Xu Jinsong and the others, who were already dumbfounded.
"You guys deal with the rest. I have some business to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."
"As you wish, prefecture master." Xu Jinsong hurriedly said. Although Lu Sheng didn't have an official title, and was technically a man of the pugilistic world and a free man, the Three Sects had immense power. Putting aside the power of a Prefectural Sect, just the connections and power he had were enough to crush him as easily as crushing an ant.
Lu Sheng ignored them and leaped into the air. Golden light exploded under his feet, and he shot into the clouds in the blink of an eye, disappearing into the horizon.
Continuing to hunt down the Tian 'er Blade, obtaining the Divine Weapon, and completing the mission was his top priority.
