C165 (2/2)
Lu Beiyou stood up from the wooden wheelchair and walked in front. Du Xiaokang and Wang Huan looked at each other, put away the map on the desk and followed him.
”Patriarch, someone said outside that he wants to pay a visit. May I know?”
A white-haired old man who was sitting on a chair lightly sipped the hot tea in his hand and raised his head to look at the butler kneeling in front of him.
”Ah Fu, how much did you take this time?”
The housekeeper, Ah Fu, took out a note worth a hundred taels of silver and said, ”One hundred taels.”
The old man nodded: ”This time you took it well.”
Then he stood up, rubbed his waist and said, ”Open the door and welcome the guests.”
Lu Beiyou and the other two who were originally standing outside the door, were led into Hong Yan's residence by the butler.
Travelling forward, they went around the palace's railing. Finally, Lu Beiyou and the other two arrived in front of a small, dilapidated courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard was a small vegetable patch, where an old man was picking his vegetables.
Seeing Lu Beiyou and the other two arrive, the old man waved the leek in his hand and laughed: ”I wonder if Young Master Lu likes to eat dumplings stuffed with leek.”
Lu Beiyou looked around the courtyard and laughed: ”Of course.”
The old man smiled and walked into the room, Lu Beiyou and the other two also walked into the courtyard.
After a while, the old man placed two steaming hot dumplings on the table.
Lu Beiyou glanced at it and laughed: ”I never thought that it would actually be Hong Yan who would personally make dumplings in respect to the old senior, I am truly honored.”
Hong Yan however, laughed as he stroked his beard, ”How is this normal? As long as you don't mind.”
Lu Beiyou did not care about the heat and swallowed two of them.
Hong Yan and Wang Huan glanced at each other and also left the courtyard, leaving behind the old and young duo who were immersed in eating.
”Young Master Lu is determined to unify the Middle Continent?”
Hong Yan respectfully put down the chopsticks in his hand, while Lu Beiyou's plate was also completely empty.
Lu Beiyou wiped his mouth and laughed: ”Everyone says that the top ten in the world are peerless, but in my opinion, Senior Hong Yan is already close to becoming an immortal.”
Hong Yan was startled, then laughed out loud, he wiped the corner of his mouth and waved his hand, causing the table to be empty.
”Your grandfather told you?”
Lu Beiyou shook his head and said: ”Because the place Hong Yan's family appeared at was too strange, I had no choice but to be vigilant. And then, I realized that when I told them about Hong Yan's family at the Cyan Aurora Temple, what I saw in their eyes was only fear. ”
Lu Beiyou paused for a moment to see that Hong Yan was only smiling at him, and continued, ”But according to my information, the Hong Yan family only has one Mahayana, and the various gangs or families present also have their own Mahayana Stage. There is no reason for them to be afraid of other families of the same power, so in that case, there is only one situation.”
Hong Yan smiled respectfully: ”That is, the Hong Yan Family is even more terrifying than them, what makes them afraid is this, right?”
Lu Beiyou nodded his head, and started laughing unbridled. In the end, he narrowed his eyes and said: ”If the Hong Yan family does not choose to submit, what will Young Master Lu do?”
