After that night, Lu Hanjiang never visited Dongfang Yuan in private again, and the other party seemed as if nothing had happened and silently followed the team heading north without saying a word as usual.
Since there is no immediate choice to take action or leave, this attitude represents acquiescence.
In fact, the balance in Dongfang Yuan's heart had already shifted due to Lu Hanjiang's words. In the end, Yue Lifeng, the successor of Xiaoyao Sect, was a heavy weight.
Dongfang Yuan was indeed extremely surprised by the "real" identity of Lu Shiqi. This person was both a descendant of the Xiaoyao Sect and an accomplice of Jin Yiwei, and he actually found a way to win the position of leader of the Beggar Clan.
"God's Coming"
These three identities made Dongfang Yuan believe his words even more. In fact, if you think about it, compared to the sudden display of power by the Jin Yiwei who found all their strongholds and wiped them out, the crown princess was more trustworthy.
Dongfang Yuan was the last orphaned girl of the Dongfang family. If she didn't use her status to do something, Lu Hanjiang would feel sorry for the fate that sent her to him.
As for using Yue Lifeng's identity to win over the other party to deal with the Crown Princess, Lu Hanjiang didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at all. After all, he didn't talk nonsense. At least nine out of ten sentences were true.
Thinking about it carefully, it is impossible for Dongfang Yuanyuan to deal with the high-ranking princess. Not to mention the strength, there is no way.
Moreover, the tragedy of the Dongfang family was due to the Crown Princess's calculations. Rounding it all off, Dongfang Huang's death can also be attributed to His Highness. Lu Hanjiang's willingness to take action was simply a sign of mercy. He couldn't help but praise his kindness. Thumbs up.
"Brother Lu, what are you doing?"
Gongsun Cheng was walking by and saw Lu Hanjiang clasping his hands towards the stream with a melancholy look on his face.
"It's nothing," Lu Hanjiang shook his head and said with emotion, "I just think it's so rare to have a kind-hearted person like me in the world."
"oh......"
Gongsun Cheng chuckled and scratched his hair. He had great respect for this eldest brother, Lu Shiqi. Although the other party would occasionally express such strange emotions, it did not reduce his admiration for his eldest brother.
Lu Hanjiang clapped his hands, turned around and looked at Gongsun Cheng and asked, "Brother, why are you looking for me?"
"It's like this, Brother Lu. According to the distance you arranged for us, we have been delayed for too much time on the road these days. I thought, let's ask Brother what he means."
Gongsun Cheng was a little unsure of Lu Hanjiang's thoughts. According to the information he had received beforehand, Xuehua Palace was deep in the Northland. If he calculated based on the original journey, he could reach it in ten days after entering the Northland.
But now they have been wandering around the edge of the Northland for seven or eight days. The total distance they walk every day is less than one-tenth of the total distance, but they have not encountered any major problems to stop them.
It is said that children from poor families become masters early, so Gongsun Cheng, a child raised in poverty, was naturally smart. He could see that Lu Hanjiang seemed to be delaying on purpose.
However, Gongsun Cheng was very sensible and did not say anything about this matter. He even deliberately changed the topic when someone was discussing it. He was a man who repaid his kindness and was also measured. After all, this was also the internal affairs of the Beggar Clan. affairs, so he chose to find Lu Hanjiang privately to understand the situation.
In fact, this boy has a very good vision. Lu Hanjiang is indeed in no hurry. He has not forgotten that the most important goal of this trip is Yan Fengyun. Without the deputy gang leader, it will be useless even if they demolish the Xuehua Palace.
But this matter cannot be said openly. Although the Jingyi Sect of the Beggar Clan is now at its peak, Yan Fengyun is not a shrimp that can be manipulated at will. Before he can be completely driven into the mortal world, some things must be done secretly.
So Lu Hanjiang said to Gongsun Cheng: "My dear brother is smart and must have noticed that I have been deliberately delaying in recent days."
"Yes." Gongsun Cheng nodded and did not choose to act stupid.
Lu Hanjiang was very satisfied with his honesty and said, "To tell you the truth, Xuehua Palace is difficult to deal with. To be sure, I have urgently ordered the deputy gang leader Yan Fengyun to come here. With him here, we have a better chance of winning."
"I see," Gongsun Cheng suddenly realized, "Brother Lu has thought carefully."
With Lu Hanjiang's words, Gongsun Cheng was no longer anxious. Although he was also eager to get Linglong Prayer to convince the old man, but as his elder brother Lu said, Xuehua Palace was not a soft persimmon, so it was better to be cautious. .
So in the next few days, Lu Hanjiang and his people continued to advance slowly in the Northland. Until that day, Elder Qi, who went to look for Yan Fengyun, sent a flying letter.
After Lu Hanjiang saw it, he summoned the disciples and elders of the Beggar Clan in the North and said to them: "Everyone, Deputy Gang Leader Yan is almost here. According to the time on the letter, we can take the initiative to attack Xuehua Palace in one fell swoop in seven days. Demonic way.”
When they heard that Yan Fengyun was coming, the disciples were naturally excited, but a few elders also had doubts in their hearts after getting excited.
Gang Leader Lu "seized" the position of Gang Leader Yan Fengyun, and took the initiative to support the Jingyi Sect. Not only were they incompatible with Deputy Gang Leader Yan, but they were at least separated from each other until death, so how could he take the initiative to ask him to come.
But no one seems to be able to tell what's wrong with this matter. After all, it wouldn't sound good if there was disagreement within the Beggar Clan, right? Now Gang Leader Lu is willing to join forces with Deputy Gang Leader Yan regardless of past grudges, which is a good thing.
Everyone was in a good mood, and Lu Hanjiang also hinted that the Pure Clothes Sect would temporarily stop and allow the Dirty Clothes Sect to promote Yan Fengyun's reputation among their disciples.
He watched with cold eyes and counted the time on his fingers. That day he called Dongfang Yuan again. After the two met, Lu Hanjiang told her that he had something to do for her.
Dongfang Yuan did not refuse, obviously he had decided to go on a boat with Jin Yiwei.
Lu Hanjiang took out a sword and handed it to her. He specially sent someone from the capital to deliver it at high speed. As for the owner of this sword——
"Miss Dongfang, you have superb light skills. Please bring this sword to Xuehua Palace and tell the palace owner that the owner of this sword is in the hands of our beggar gang." Lu Hanjiang said this like a prankster. child.
But thinking about the identity of the other party's Jin Yiwei, it seemed that it was not so difficult to accept. Dongfang Yuan did not say anything. She nodded and accepted the task, and took advantage of the night to explore the Xuehua Palace.
...
On the other side, Yan Fengyun had already entered the Northland at this time. His speed was extremely fast. Ever since he heard the news that the new leader of the Beggar Clan had attacked Xuehua Palace, he had downed several horses and kept running day and night. Head north.
This exhausted Elder Wu and Elder Qi who were accompanying them. After another day of traveling, Yan Fengyun finally showed mercy and allowed everyone to stop and rest for a while.
Elder Wu's expression was complicated and distressed. Who knew that in just half a year, the leader of the Beggar Gang would have changed his position. But after all, it was the old gang leader's choice, and he did not dare to say anything.
As for Elder Qi on the side, he sneered. Looking at the pretty woman following Yan Fengyun, he marveled in his heart that the leader of the Lu gang was so knowledgeable, but he also despised the sanctimoniousness of the gang leader.
Who would have thought that their majestic deputy leader of the Beggar Clan would actually have an affair with a demonic woman. This time to slay the demon, the world must see Yan Fengyun’s face clearly!
