This was Ying Mingyue's residence.
At her invitation, Lu Qingshan came to visit.
The servant hurriedly passed on the message.
Soon, Lu Qingshan was able to enter Mingyue's residence and saw Ying Mingyue in a hall.
Ying Mingyue was tall and slender. Her legs were slender and straight. She was wearing a silver-gray robe that wrapped around her graceful figure. Her eyebrows were sharp and she was full of heroic spirit.
She crossed her arms and looked at Lu Qingshan with a complicated expression. She couldn't help but say, "I thought you were quite smart before. How did you become so stupid now?"
Lu Qingshan knew that Ying Mingyue had heard the rumors and disturbances in the outside world.
A person challenging someone of the same generation, no matter how he looked at it, was an ignorant and stupid act.
"Stupid?" Lu Qingshan smiled calmly. "You don't know anything. You only heard some superficial news and you dare to say that a person is stupid. This is the real stupidity."
Ying Mingyue raised her eyebrows. She understood the meaning in Lu Qingshan's words. "What do you mean?"
"You said I was stupid because I said that I would defeat everyone of the same generation in the entire Royal City.
And you think that someone will soon come to challenge me and defeat me, shattering this boast that I've made. "
"At that time, I will become a clown?"
Ying Mingyue nodded calmly, indicating that she agreed.
"If you really think I am stupid because of this, then I will be very disappointed in you. It seems that there is not much meaning in me coming to find you this time," Lu Qingshan said calmly. He cupped his hands toward Ying Mingyue. "Goodbye."
After speaking, Lu Qingshan turned and left.
"Three, two …" He counted silently in his heart.
"Wait." Ying Mingyue's voice came from behind him.
Lu Qingshan smiled and then quickly restrained his smile. He turned and looked at Ying Mingyue calmly. "What, Miss Mingyue, do you have something to say?"
Ying Mingyue's face was a little ugly. She said in a muffled voice, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't play this game with me."
Lu Qingshan was not embarrassed by Ying Mingyue's exposure. He didn't even care.
The success of playing hard to get did not depend on whether or not the other party could see through it.
As long as the other party was "captured", it would be a success.
He looked around vigilantly, and his gaze finally fell on his subordinate waiting outside the hall. He asked, "Is this a suitable place to talk?"
Ying Mingyue was silent for a while before she finally said, "Come with me."
She brought Lu Qingshan to a secluded secret room.
"This is where I usually meditate." Ying Mingyue said calmly, "It's very safe."
"Tell me, why are you doing this?"
Lu Qingshan was not in a hurry to explain the reason. Instead, he asked, "Think about it first. If my bold words were quickly slapped in the face, what would I lose?"
Ying Mingyue's heart skipped a beat.
Seeing her reaction, Lu Qingshan knew that Ying Mingyue had an answer in her heart, so he continued, "No, there won't be any losses.
I am the son of the Demonic Blade Venerable, and also the son-in-law of the Demonic Blade Venerable. Even if someone came to challenge me, they would say that even if they could defeat me, they would absolutely not kill me. "
"They wouldn't dare!"
"If that's the case, the biggest loss would be that I would become the object of ridicule.
After all, it is indeed a very shameful thing to be slapped in the face after making bold words. "
"However, you have to understand that after accepting your father's conditions, leaving the Limitless King Realm, and coming to Jianluo Royal City to become the son-in-law of the Ying Family," Lu Qingshan smiled calmly, "there are not many people in Jianluo Royal City who think highly of me."
Being the son-in-law of the Ying Family was a very shameful thing.
Even if many people wanted to be the son-in-law of the Ying Family, they couldn't.
However, this did not prevent them from looking down on the person who "got" them in the end.
Lu Qingshan continued, "On the contrary, if I really did this and defeated all my peers in Jianluo Royal City, what kind of scene would that be?"
Ying Mingyue's expression changed rapidly, and her heart was filled with disbelief. She subconsciously answered, "If you can really defeat all your peers in Jianluo Royal City, then you will be one of the most dazzling youngsters in Jianluo Royal City."
"Exactly. At that time, the brilliance on my body will be enough to cover my identity as the son-in-law of the Ying Family.
When people mention me, they will not think of me as the son-in-law of the Ying Family, but as one of the most powerful youngsters in Jianluo Royal City, "Lu Qingshan said.
Ying Mingyue looked at Lu Qingshan with a complicated gaze. "If the identity of the son-in-law of the Ying Family is so difficult for you to accept, then why did you agree to my father's conditions?"
Lu Qingshan stretched out his fingers. "First of all, this is my father's idea. It's not good for me to go against it."
"Secondly, in the Limitless King Realm, I don't have anyone supporting me.
My two elder brothers have extremely powerful forces behind them. Their interests have formed a tie. In order to fight for the position of the Realm Lord of the King Realm, they fight against each other.
Under such circumstances, if I dared to stand out, they would quickly suppress me, and I wouldn't have the ability to resist. "
"Therefore, when you were in the Limitless King Realm, you deliberately smeared your name and acted like a brainless person to lower their vigilance and prevent them from deliberately targeting you," Ying Mingyue continued.
This is what you said, not what I said.
Lu Qingshan thought inwardly.
The highest level of bluffing was to only state one thing and lead the person you want to bluff to come to the final conclusion by themselves.
Because of this, the person would instinctively believe the conclusion.
He nodded.
"But, didn't you say that the Demonic Blade Venerable thinks highly of you? Why would the two of them dare to wantonly target and suppress you?" Ying Mingyue thought of another point.
Lu Qingshan said meaningfully, "Think highly of me? That's under the premise that I'm not focused on the position of Realm Lord, so they're compensating me. "
He sneered and said, "When have you ever heard of a Realm Lord of the Soldier Demon Clan who was born with a mixed blood?"
"Ying Mingyue, you're also not a pureblood. You should understand that in the Soldier Demon Clan, among us Demons, everyone values bloodlines and has prejudice against us.
No matter what, people like us who are not pureblood are looked down upon. "
Ying Mingyue was silent.
The hierarchy of Demons was so strict that it was hard to imagine.
And the only thing that differentiated the hierarchy was bloodline.
She could empathize with Lu Qingshan's words.
Lu Qingshan continued unhurriedly, "Therefore, as long as I stay in the Limitless King Realm, I won't be able to make a name for myself.
My only way out is to come to Jianluo King City and stay away from their sight. "
"By coming to Jianluo King City in this way, you can also obtain resources that you can't obtain in the Limitless King Realm." Ying Mingyue's train of thought was suddenly opened, and she added.
She was talking about her dowry, the Blood Deity Sand mine.
"That's right." Lu Qingshan praised, "However, the only downside of this is that I will bear the name of a son-in-law and suffer a lot of criticism in Jianluo King City.
Even if I can return to the Limitless King Realm in the future, there's no possibility of a son-in-law who is looked down upon by others inheriting the king realm. "
"However, as long as you can do as you say and sweep away the people of the same generation in Jianluo King City, no one will look down on you. They will also ignore your identity as a son-in-law."
Ying Mingyue had already "understood" all of Lu Qingshan's plans. "This way, you can take all the benefits of being a son-in-law of the Ying Clan and gain space and time to make a name for yourself. At the same time, you won't be negatively affected."
Intense ripples appeared in her eyes. "Therefore, you want to become the Realm Lord of the Limitless King Realm one day."
"What a big ambition!"
Lu Qingshan coldly said, "As a mixed-blood, it's extremely difficult for me to become the Realm Lord. However, I, Qing Ge, want to be the number one person in all of history!"
Ying Mingyue's heart trembled. Suddenly, she felt an indescribable spirit appear in her heart.
However, she quickly calmed down. "However, the premise of all this is that you can really sweep away the people of the same generation in Jianluo King City as you said."
"If you only said that you can sweep away the people of the same realm, then there's some possibility." Ying Mingyue coldly said, "Your swordsmanship is indeed superb. Coupled with the support of the Army Character Formula, it's still very possible for you to dominate the low-level Demon Generals."
"However, you shouldn't have added 'sweep away the people of the same generation'."
"The hidden dragons and tigers in Jianluo King City are not something you can imagine, especially the strength of those pure-blooded king bloodlines."
She said, "I'll tell you directly. Among the people of the same generation as you in Jianluo King City, there are high-level Demon Generals, and not just one. There are even peak Demon Generals!"
"I know." Lu Qingshan nodded.
He definitely knew this in his heart.
Qing Ge's talent was outstanding among the Demons, but it was definitely not the most outstanding.
"However, the momentum of sweeping away the people of the same realm is far from enough to erase the mark of son-in-law on my body. Only by being invincible in the same generation can I do that." He smiled.
"Are you really sure?" Ying Mingyue asked in disbelief, seeing Lu Qingshan still so calm at this time.
Lu Qingshan calmly shook his head, "No."
"Then you …"
"That's why I came to you."
Ying Mingyue slightly frowned, "What do you mean?"
"You've seen my means. In addition, I've already comprehended the Army Character Formula in this realm. This means that in terms of talent, I'm not inferior to others at all, right?"
"I admit this." Ying Mingyue motioned Lu Qingshan to continue.
"So, the only difference between me and the people of the king bloodline is bloodline," Lu Qingshan calmly said.
"This is the truth. What can you do about it?" Ying Mingyue's expression was cold, "Although I don't like this, this is the status quo, the status quo that can't be changed."
"No, why can't you change it?" Lu Qingshan stared at Ying Mingyue with blazing eyes, "You should have Blood Spirit Crystals on you."
As soon as his voice fell, Ying Mingyue, like a hedgehog, stood up all the spikes on her body and looked at Lu Qingshan vigilantly.
There was no doubt that Blood Spirit Crystals were precious, and Lu Qingshan's meaning was so obvious.
No wonder she had such an expression.
"Why do you ask this?"
"You didn't deny it, so you really do have them." Lu Qingshan looked at Ying Mingyue's expression and said softly, "Lend me the Blood Spirit Crystals first, and I'll return them to you later."
Ying Mingyue sneered, "Return them to me later? It's easy to say, but it's hard to say whether you can get any Blood Spirit Crystals in this life. Why should I lend them to you?"
"Because I'm your future husband. Is this reason enough?" Lu Qingshan said with a smile that wasn't a smile.
Without waiting for Ying Mingyue to get angry, Lu Qingshan said indifferently, "As far as I know, your situation seems to be worse than mine. Your nominal 'elder brother' sees you as a thorn in his side and wants to get rid of you.
"It's also because of this that Demon Venerable Shi Wu wants to find a son-in-law for you. He wants you to have a backer behind you after he dies, so Demon Venerable Honglie won't dare to do anything to you."
Ying Mingyue was silent.
"But, are you willing to do this?" Lu Qingshan raised his voice and asked, "Are you willing to be controlled by others and even marry me for your own safety, a man you don't like at all?"
Ying Mingyue took a deep breath and slowly said, "What can I do if I'm not willing?"
"Resist." Lu Qingshan revealed his true intentions.
"Helping me is also helping yourself." His eyes were deep, making it hard for others to see what he was thinking. He said patiently, "Work with me. If you help me now, I'll help you in the future!
"First, lend me the Blood Spirit Crystal. With the help of the Blood Spirit Crystal, I'm confident that I can defeat my peers and make a name for myself in Jianluo Royal City.
"To tell you the truth, after Demon Venerable Shi Wu dies, I'll leave Jianluo Royal City and return to Jianluo Royal Realm. At that time, you'll have no choice but to go with me.
"And this time, when I return to Jianluo Royal Realm, I won't sully my reputation and bide my time like before. Instead, I'll officially join the fight for the position of Realm Lord.
"At that time, my two 'good' elder brothers will definitely work together to deal with me.
If I can't hold them back, you won't have a good ending either. After all, your family also wants you dead. "
Lu Qingshan said slowly, "The two of us are bound together for good or ill. Therefore, it's reasonable for you to help me."
Ying Mingyue didn't speak. She was still thinking about something.
Lu Qingshan snorted and continued, "Besides, like I said, I'll repay you.
When you return to Jianluo Royal Realm with me, it'll be your chance. Because this way, you'll be able to escape Demon Venerable Honglie's attention.
"I promise you, if I gain power, I'll use the power of the King Realm to help you eliminate Demon Venerable Honglie and let you take control of Demon Venerable Shi Wu!
"To show my sincerity, I can promise you that after we get married, I won't touch you.
In other words, we'll only be husband and wife in name, but not in reality. Even if you don't want to take control of Demon Venerable Shi Wu, I can at least let you live the life you want.
"So, in terms of feelings, you have to help me," Lu Qingshan said.
Ying Mingyue remained silent, but there was a blazing fire in her eyes. Obviously, she didn't care as much as she looked.
"That's all I have to say. Think about it carefully."
"I admit that I need your Blood Spirit Crystals. That's why I said so much." Lu Qingshan sighed. "However, every word I said was sincere and came from the bottom of my heart.
"Also, I'll tell you a piece of confidential information I found. Consider it a gift from me."
"What is it?" Ying Mingyue frowned.
"Your mother. Do you know how she died?" Lu Qingshan smiled coldly.
If benefits couldn't move Ying Mingyue, then what about hatred?
Hatred was the most powerful force.
Ying Mingyue trembled. Her voice trembled. "What do you mean? My mother didn't die because she encountered Demon Bandits in the wilderness. So … "
Demon Bandits were Demon Cultivators who robbed others.
No matter which world it was, there would be no lack of such people.
In the Abyss, where hierarchy was strict, the probability of Demon Bandits appearing was even higher.
After all, the crueler the exploitation, the easier it was for people to become bandits.
"Ying Mingyue, do you really believe this?" Lu Qingshan looked at Ying Mingyue's beautiful face with burning eyes and asked.
Ying Mingyue was speechless for a moment. After a while, she said, "My mother wanted to return to Fiery Silkworm City. However, the path she took hadn't encountered any Demon Bandits for many years …"
"It seems that you know what's going on. You've just been deceiving yourself."
Lu Qingshan added fuel to the fire. "You're alone and weak. There are many things you can't know the truth about.
However, before I came to Jianluo City, my father investigated you in detail. He organized the information and I read it carefully.
One of the pieces of information was about the Demon Bandits who attacked your mother's battleship back then …
They weren't real Demon Bandits. They were Demon Cultivators who pretended to be Demon Bandits under someone's orders! "
"As for who ordered them, you should know very well." Lu Qingshan's voice suddenly grew louder.
Ying Mingyue was speechless. Her eyes unconsciously became bloodshot and filled with hatred.
Who else could it be other than the Grand-Blaze Demon Master?
Seeing Ying Mingyue's reaction, Lu Qingshan gradually became more confident.
He did read Ying Mingyue's information before coming to Jianluo City. He also knew that Ying Mingyue's mother had died in the Demon Bandits' attack.
However, the story that the Demon Bandits were actually Demon Cultivators who pretended to be Demon Bandits was completely fabricated by him.
After all, if it was really a premeditated murder, why would the mastermind leave such a big loophole?
However, everyone had this temper.
As long as he was willing to believe something, he would believe it very easily.
This was also the reason why rumors could always spread.
