oh.
Lu Ci murmured "No wonder", and Wang Ai's reaction became even more enthusiastic. He abandoned Zhang Chulan directly and his eyes stayed on Hu Xiuwu, as if looking at a rare treasure:
"Young man, you are so affectionate and kind."
Wang Ai glanced at Lu Ci next to him and saw that he was silent, so he couldn't guess what Lu Ci was thinking. He didn't know what the relationship between Hu Xiuwu and him was, and he didn't know Hu Xiuwu's background, so he didn't act as aggressively as before.
Although the four families of Lu Gao and Wang Lu in the alien world are said to be of the same spirit, their private relationship is not as harmonious as one family.
The famous Lu family teaches their children and grandchildren according to the rules of discipleship, and walks the world with awe-inspiring character. The head of the family, Lu Jin, is known to have a flawless life and a high sense of morality. He disdains to compete with the Wang family and the Lu family in order to maintain their own reputation and power. Money power.
As for the Gao family, they cooperated closely with Nadutong, rarely leaving the border, and almost leaving the world of aliens. This meant that Lu Ci was willing to cooperate with Wang Ai for the sake of the family, and would go to any lengths.
Therefore, Wang Ai was still very concerned about Lu Ci's attitude. Lu Ci did not ask Hu Xiuwu for the origin of Qi Ti first, so Wang Ai was not as aggressive as he was with Zhang Chulan just now.
Anyway, we already know where the source of Qi Ti is, and we can just make secret calculations later.
However, who is this Hu Xiuwu who can make Lu Ci ask for the source of Qi Ti without even opening his mouth?
Wang Ai was curious about Hu Xiuwu's identity, and thought about asking his family's men to check Hu Xiuwu's details later.
Lu Ci stared at Hu Xiuwu silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
The situation suddenly cooled down, not as tense as before.
"Oh, it's so lively here."
With Hu Xiuwu's interruption, Xu San and Xu Si, who received Feng Baobao's call, also rushed over.
Although Xu Si is not as senior or qualified as the Ten Elders in the alien world, he is, after all, a well-versed executive and the official person in charge of a region.
Anyway, due to Lu Ci's weird attitude, Wang Ai couldn't continue the conversation alone, so he might as well give Xu Si some face and let him take him away.
Watching the people leave, Wang Ai leaned on his crutch without looking back: "Brother, why did you feel so strange when you heard Hu Xiuwu's name just now? Why didn't you continue to ask for Qi Tiyuanliu?"
Lu Ci put his hand on the armrest of the Grand Master's chair and did not speak for a long time. He showed a rare hesitation: "He is Wu Dechang's apprentice and has been to our Lu family before."
Wang Ai said: "Wu Dechang, he is a disciple of Shangqing. Shangqing shouldn't make you so afraid, brother."
Lu Ci said slowly: "What I'm worried about is not Shangqing, what I'm worried about is Hu Xiuwu himself."
"A stupid kid?" This answer was far beyond Wang Ai's expectations.
Hu Xiuwu failed to marry into the Lu family, so Lu Ci would not be lenient, but he was wary of Hu Xiuwu.
Lu Ci was very strict in managing his children and grandchildren who had awakened to the Ming Soul Technique, and would not easily allow the Lu family disciples who knew the Ming Soul Technique to leave the village. However, in order to cure Hu Xiuwu twelve years ago, he summoned all the Lu family members in the village who knew the Ming Soul Technique. It was because he valued Hu Xiuwu's qualifications that he wanted to recruit him into the Lu family.
The child he once evaluated as having the talent of a heavenly teacher grew up smoothly. Hu Xiuwu, who already had the most extraordinary skills in the Qing Dynasty, even learned the Eight Wonders.
Twelve years are enough for him to transform his potential into strength.
Tianshi was able to defeat Lu Jin, the leader among his peers, with just one move. Zhang Huaiyi was defeated miserably by Tianshi even when he was using his tactics.
Lu Ci really couldn't guess Hu Xiuwu's current strength.
To be honest, if there was going to be a conflict today, Lu Ci really doubted whether his side could get any benefits.
Lu Ci turned around and asked Lu Gong: "Xiao Gong, go check whether Hu Xiuwu also participated in the Luotian Festival and when his next game will be."
Lu Gong accepted the order: "Yes."
On the other side, after staying away from the yard, Zhang Chulan said to Hu Xiuwu: "Uncle. Thank you for coming to help me out, that..."
Zhang Chulan's words of thanks were very vague, but what he wanted to ask more was whether what Hu Xiuwu just said was true or false.
"No, I lied to them. The teacher only taught me the Golden Light Curse at the Eight Immortals Mountain. I don't know the Origin of the Qi Body." Hu Xiuwu said generously,
"If I didn't help you get it, how could Wang Ai let you go so easily? I said I would repay the teacher's kindness."
"I never lie."
To be honest, during this period of time, I was used to seeing all kinds of people approaching him for the source of the Qi Body and using various means to take advantage of him. Suddenly, there was a person who was willing to take risks and take over this matter. He had grown up on his own and had an early heart. Zhang Chulan, who became cold, was indeed a little moved.
Zhang Chulan was touched and said: "But if this happens, what will happen to your family, uncle?"
"I've thought about it a long time ago."
Hu Xiuwu was very relaxed: "I'm not a hapless guy like you. There's no one in my family that's easy to deal with. I can't use some unflattering tricks on my family members."
Xu San still didn’t know what happened just now, but he could make a rough guess and pushed up his glasses: “Xiu Wu’s brother is also our colleague. Even if he is the tenth elder, he cannot use dirty tricks at will to deal with family members who know everything. "
"There are more important things at the moment. There are still four games left in the Luotian Dajiao competition today. None of them are good, especially Zhuge Qing from the Zhuge family."
······
Despite the hiccup, several people still went to watch Zhuge Qing's game as planned. However, due to the long delay, the competition between Zhuge Qing and Little Vulcan had already begun.
The competition between the two sides has reached a fever pitch, and the scene is very heated.
The arena was filled with flames and heat waves, and the surrounding area seemed to have changed from the originally cool and pleasant Longhu Mountain to a hot and dry desert.
Hong Bin used Qi to turn into fire, Zhuge Qing released strange spells, and both sides cast fire spells. But what is incredible is that Zhuge Qing's fire method gradually suppressed Hong Bin's flames.
Zhuge Qing used his own position as the middle palace, laid out the Qimen Formation, and secretly adjusted his position so that the little fire god Hong Bin was located at the water sill, weakening his fierce flames.
Hong Bin was also a proud man. When he saw that his fire skills, which he was proud of, were suppressed by a warlock who did not specialize in fire skills, he was so angry that he dispersed his own flames and wanted to be buried in the flames he loved. .
Fortunately, Zhuge Qing saw something was wrong and adjusted the direction of the fire stream, allowing the high-temperature flame stream to fly past Hong Bin and land on the wall of the arena.
The arena in Longhu Mountain was a wooden building. It was stained by Hong Bin and Zhuge Qing's flames that far exceeded the temperature of ordinary flames and burned quickly.
The entire arena seemed to have turned into a piece of briquettes, with black smoke rising into the sky. The portable fire extinguisher had no effect at all in the face of such a fire.
The Taoist priests at Longhu Mountain could only use the golden light spell to open a passage in the fire scene and move the audience away first.
Seeing the fire getting more intense, Hu Xiuwu stood at the entrance to the outfield. A void passage appeared on his right hand, and a Tang sword with a blade like a cold moon stretched out from it. Hu Xiuwu grabbed it in his hand.
Waving the sword, a majestic sword wind like a polar storm swept along the wall, stopping the wind and extinguishing the fire wherever it went.
This kind of uncontrolled flame still has to follow physics. Without any one of the three elements of material combustion, it cannot continue to burn. Hu Xiuwu's sword Qi cut off the already burning part of the wall, making it impossible for the flame to continue. spread.
Feeling that the fire was not extinguished fast enough, the horned dragon bracelet on Hu Xiuwu's left wrist came to life, lingering on Hu Xiuwu's wrist. He raised his head, the orb under his chin shined brightly, the dragon's kiss opened wide, and spit out a sword that was similar to Hu Xiuwu's swing. Qi, the dragon's breath of sword Qi that does not distinguish between up and down.
One on the left and one on the right, the two swords were like wild dragons. Everything they passed was crushed into powder, but they only moved against the burning flames and did not hurt innocent people. This kind of spiritual sword Qi fully reflects the superb control of the sword holder.
The two swords chased each other, whipping up a mighty wind that covered the sky and the sun and roared endlessly.
When the wind stopped and the dust subsided, the stands were unscathed and no spectators were injured.
Under the stands, it was like a typhoon passing through, ravaged by natural disasters, and the place was in chaos.
Hu Xiuwu lowered his sword,
Zhang Chulan was stunned, his mouth was so big that he couldn't even close his chin. Suddenly I understood why Lu Ci suddenly became more talkative after Hu Xiuwu came over.
