745 Lu Family Head (2/2)
He would always remember those people who struck Little Miss when she was down.
Fangjue's voice paused once more.
”Moreover, Young Master is still one of the 14 direct Bloodline Members, the Grandson of the Head. His talents are even higher than those of the Eldest Son...”
Enlightenment appeared in the eyes of the old man. If till now he still couldn't guess the sudden connection, then he would really be stupid.
”...After the Head of Family, the one with the best chance to inherit the position is Young Master! Is that what you want to say?”
Directly interrupting the person speaking, he laughed coldly, ”You are really plotting it well! I always said that you were ambitious and pursue your self-interest. Unfortunately, I am not willing to see him step into that mess!”
”That is not up to you! Young Master is like a bright pearl in the sand, sooner or later he will see daylight. His future is up to the Head of Family. If he insisted, what could you do?”
Seeing the old man frowning deeper and deeper, the grey-haired middle-aged man shook his head, ”I won't deny being ambitious. As a male, one should grasp power and be surrounded by beauties. With Little Miss's current situation, what if no one has a high position who will take care of her? If I can let Young Master take control, not only can I pay back Little Miss for her kindness, but my Fang Family can also climb higher in the Lu Family outer race. Is that wrong?”
The old man's face was filled with more disdain.
”You make it sound really nice! However, it is just for your personal gain. Can you bear to put Young Master in danger?”
Fangjue didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. He didn't bother and instead asked back.
”I've been through life and death these few decades and nearly died. I helped reduce 20 years off her sentence. You left, you have always been loyal, but what have you done for her? You just stayed here in the Cloud World?”
Lengli stopped breathing. His face alternated between green and white.
A moment later, when he calmed down, his eyes were filled with respect.
”I can't cut off more of her sentence. The only way is to get Young Master back. He doesn't even need to return, as long as he is proven to be the Unlimited Beginning and End Buddha, Little Miss would be able to get out! Naturally, it wouldn't be done now...”
When he said this, Fangjue laughed awkwardly, ”I wanted to work harder for a few more decades to build a good foundation in Xuanyan Hall. However, looking at the situation, it won't go as I had wished. You should know that the Cloud World can't accept him!”
After he spoke, the lake rippled.
Lengli closed his eyes and didn't speak, his face was like metal.
There was an energy face-off between the mirror and the man. Threads of sharp energy spread through the air. The grass and flowers nearby were cut down. The lake bubbled and many waves rippled out.
After a long while, Fangjue sighed.
”Forget it, let's follow what you said! My greatest wish is for Little Miss to reunite with Young Master. Old friend, please think about it.”
The water mirror dissipated and the lake calmed down once more.
Lengli's lips curled coldly, who was he trying to bluff?
