Chapter 342: The Hall Master comes out of seclusion
"Li Chengtao? Haha, you have a lot of skills." The white-haired old man sat on the main platform, his eyebrows stretched, stroking his long beard, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a smile, as if he was very impressed by the people in the scene. interest.
Three days ago…
In the underground palace of Zhongyuan Hall, the white-haired old man was sitting cross-legged in the center of the hall with his eyes closed and his mind raised to the sky.
A figure in black slowly walked out of a shadow. He thrust his fists forward and said in a deep voice to the white-haired old man:
"Hall Master."
The white-haired old man slowly opened his eyes. This person was the master of Lingkunzhou Zhenwu Hall, Lu Chengsan. He glanced at the person who came. Although the person's face was covered with black cloth, he could recognize him just by the fluctuation of his true energy. Then he asked slowly:
"Is there something important?"
"To report to the Hall Master, the opening of the Two Boundary Mountains has been finalized. There are four places in total. These four people will be expelled from the sect competition held in the back gate two days later. I hope the Hall Master can take charge of the overall situation."
After hearing this, Lu Chengsan slowly closed his eyes and replied calmly: "This matter can only be left to my elder and elder Zeng to take charge."
The figure spoke again: "There is just one person among them. My elder said that the hall master still needs to see him through."
"who."
"Li Chengtao."
As soon as these three words came out, the white-haired old man was shocked and opened his eyes suddenly.
The man in black seemed to have expected Hall Master Lu to react like this, and quickly explained:
"This person is a new disciple who was brought back from the sea by Yang Hua some time ago. According to this person's self-report, his ancestor was a disciple of my Zhenwu Dao Hall. After entering the secret realm, he began to drift on the sea and reproduce. Several generations ago, it was not until a few days ago that I was attacked by casual cultivators on the sea, and I had the opportunity to escape to Lingkun State alone. And there is indeed something weird about this person..."
Lu Chengsan nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"This person originally reached the realm of chivalrous ascension, but he was sealed as inner energy. Currently, he only has the cultivation of Qi realm. Moreover, the person who sealed him is extremely powerful, even the great elder cannot shake him. Not even a cent.”
The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, then stood up, walked to Huanghuali's desk, picked up a brush soaked in ink, and suspended it above the desk, as if he was about to write but seemed hesitant.
Lu Chengsan held the pen in his right hand and hovered. All the ink on the tip of the pen was contained in the pen. The ink beads seemed to be dripping but did not fall. Therefore, the rice paper under the brush was still pure white. At the same time, Hall Master Lu's left hand was not idle either. It was tightly held in his sleeve and his fingers were constantly making secrets.
"The ink is not dripping, and it is hidden deep. You cannot not believe what this person says, nor can you believe it entirely." Lu Chengsan murmured to himself.
"And my elder also said..." The young man in black added hesitantly.
"Don't worry about what else you said."
The man in black naturally knew the temperament of his hall master, and continued: "My elder also said that this Li Chengtao claimed that his seal was sealed by Han Sanli."
"Oh? This is more interesting."
"Then how should we deal with this person? The great elder is also a little unsure, so I want to ask the hall master for advice." The man in black continued to ask.
Lu Chengsan looked at the brush in his hand, and then slowly started writing, all in one go. After finishing writing, he looked at his "calligraphy treasure" and said with great satisfaction in his heart: "If this person is not related to Han Sanli, no matter what secrets he has, it won't matter if he is beaten to death and thrown into the sea, or let him leave Lingkun Continent. Problem. The only thing I can’t do is have anything to do with this old devil Han..."
The man in black was even more confused when he heard this. In fact, when my elder decided to take this person in, he felt a little unbelievable. He even harbored deep malice towards this fair-skinned young man who suddenly appeared.
"Then... Hall Master, us?..." The man in black asked.
"Haha, I'll leave the customs tomorrow!" the white-haired old man replied with a smile.
When the man in black heard this, he paused for a moment, and then his eyes trembled violently in his eye sockets. However, in just a moment, he forced himself to regain his composure and replied in a deep voice: "As you command!"
At this time, he saw clearly that there were four big characters written on the huanghuali calligraphy table. The strokes and the artistic conception of the calligraphy were... very ordinary, but at least the characters were written "regularly" and "correctly" . You should know that whether someone writes calligraphy well or not, being evaluated as "ruly" or "correct" is only to evaluate beginners. If you use repeated words to evaluate, it will be suspected of "the writing is very good, don't write next time" .
A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the man in black. He looked at the four not-so-pretty words on the desk and thought to himself: "Act according to the opportunity? What does this mean, Master?"
…………
"Congratulations to Hall Master Lu for coming out of seclusion." In the Zhongyuan Hall, the first elder and the second elder each stood aside and congratulated the white-haired old man sitting in the main seat.
"You two elders don't need to be polite. We have been brothers for many years. Just sit down and sit down."
"Thank you, Hall Master." Afterwards, Wu Xi and Zeng Feng sat on both sides.
Lu Chengsan calmly picked up the cup in his hand, took a sip of tea, and asked after a moment:
"Two elders, has anything big happened to the sect recently?"
Afterwards, Zeng Feng told him about the competition between Liangjie Mountain and Shengdao. Lu Chengsan immediately nodded, expressing his agreement with his strategy. During the days when Lu Chengsan was in seclusion, Elder Zeng Er was responsible for all matters of the sect. After he came out of seclusion this time, he naturally wanted to ask Zeng Feng first to find out the situation.
The Great Elder Wu Xi usually didn't care about the sect's affairs, so she naturally listened on the sidelines. Until finally she stood up and suggested that Lu Chengsan personally preside over the Dao Promotion Competition, and the white-haired old man naturally agreed.
…………
The next day, the news that the leader of the Zhenwu Hall, Lu Chengsan, came out of seclusion spread throughout the Zhenwu Hall, and even the entire Lingkun Continent.
On the eve of the Dao Promotion Competition, the second elder Zeng Feng was tentatively appointed to preside over it, after all, Hall Master Lu had not yet left seclusion at that time.
Now, the person presiding over the competition has been changed from Elder Zeng Feng to Hall Master Lu. This has made the Zhenwu Hall disciples who were already in high spirits even more excited. To put it into detail, Lu Chengsan has rarely appeared in front of the sect disciples in recent years. Even many people in the Zhenwu Hall have never seen Hall Master Lu.
On weekdays, they all follow the arrangements of the senior officials of Zhenwu Hall, but the actual managers are three elders, among whom Elder Zeng Feng has been with them the longest and has the highest prestige.
On the contrary, the number one person in the Zhenwu Hall, Lu Chengsan, is more mysterious in the minds of the disciples. The participating disciples naturally understand that this opportunity is rare. Who doesn’t want to stand out in front of their own hall master? It would be even more exciting if he could be appreciated by Lu Chengsan and given personal guidance.
