Reborn as a fiend statue

"Locke, why are you so kind to invite your brothers to the banquet today?" a burly man with a rough build shouted.

"Hey, brother Luo Di, Xiaojiu has made a major discovery recently and wants you to give him some advice. At the same time, he can also use this banquet to ease the relationship between our brothers."

"Locke, don't be hypocritical. Who doesn't know that your father loves you the most? With your father's support, you don't need to ease the relationship with us?" Luo Tianze looked disdainful.

"Tianze is right, Xiaojiu, what are you doing?" Luo Heng was also full of doubts.

"Brothers, I'm not telling lies. Although everyone wants to compete for my father's position as Duke, have you guys thought about a question?

My father is still very strong and has several concubines to sleep with him every night.

If this happens, my father will give us a lot of younger brothers and sisters.

By then, it won't be clear who is favored the most.

So now, it's best for us brothers and sisters to unite and form a group to exclude the new boys.

What do you think of Xiaojiu's proposal when our father is old and frail, and then we can fight each other?"

Luo Tianze said thoughtfully: "It's not impossible, but why should we believe you? What if it's your conspiracy?"

"Brothers, you are all people who have some military power. You should understand that we will be stronger only if we unite.

Xiaojiu also knows that no one can trust each other. We can make a contract to help each other, and then we can use our own methods after eliminating all hidden dangers.

I believe that with the constraints of the contract, no one dares to engage in small conspiracies behind the scenes."

Locke talked a lot eloquently, making a group of brothers stunned.

Many older brothers and sisters begin to look differently at their younger brothers who only bully boys and dominate girls.

Those younger brothers and sisters who were younger than Locke looked at their brother with admiration.

Everyone was secretly on guard. Locke was too much of a threat, and he was worthy of being the most favored son.

"Hahahaha... Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect our Xiaojiu to be so knowledgeable. My father is really impressed." A loud laugh came.

"Father!" x n

Everyone's expressions changed, and they all saluted at the door.

In front of the ball door was a broad, fat, but imposing nobleman.

He is also surrounded by many beauties.

This person is Locke's father, Luo Zhengchun.

"What's going on? Luo Zhengchun actually appears?"

Luo Ya was shocked.

Yu Yi also sighed softly, "Alas...it seems that the plan to control the Locke brothers and sisters tonight will be shelved."

"Brother Yi, can't we directly control Luo Zhengchun, the Grand Duke of Youshui? He is here tonight and he doesn't bring many experts with him."

"Xiaoya, you think things are too simple. People like Luo Zhengchun who have done all kinds of bad things are naturally afraid that someone will assassinate him.

He will definitely have no shortage of life-saving means. Your strength is far inferior to that of the other party, how can you control him?"

"I'm sorry, Brother Yi, it was Xiaoya who didn't think well."

"..."

"You are all free, don't worry about being a father." Luo Zhengchun waved his hand indifferently.

Locke stepped forward bravely, "Father, why are you interested in attending our junior's dance?"

"My father heard that Xiaojiu invited his brothers and sisters to a dance to discuss important matters, so he came over curiously to have a look.

I didn’t expect that Xiao Jiu, who usually relies on his father’s favor, also knows how to unite vertically and horizontally.”

"Father, please forgive me." Locke broke into a cold sweat.

"I don't blame you as a father, but I am very happy to see you brothers grow up."

"Thank you, Father."

"Well, you continue to play music and dance, and my father will leave first."

"Father, please wait a moment. I invite all my brothers to the dance today for two purposes:

First, the combination of vertical and horizontal lines is already known to the father, so the child will not elaborate on it.

Second, to identify a treasure, I hope my father can appreciate it and accompany Xiaojiu to view this treasure."

Locke hurriedly stopped and prepared to leave Luo Zhengchun.

This matter was not his idea, but Yu Yi's order.

"Oh? It's interesting... It doesn't hurt to stay and take a look." Luo Zhengchun's interest was aroused.

The girls dancing on the stage were waved away to make room.

The guards moved onto a large exhibition stand, which was covered with red cloth, making it difficult to see what was inside.

Luo Ya wisely followed the dancer attendant out of the hall, and several concubines brought by Luo Zhengchun also exited the door.

No one with a foreign surname could be seen in the entire ballroom, only Luo Zhengchun and his children were left.

Before Luo Ya left, she quietly handed the black beads to Locke.

Yu Yi wants to hide with the help of beads and secretly guide Locke to carry out a new plan.

Locke stood in front of the exhibition stand and said loudly: "Father, brothers and sisters, I invite you today to witness a mysterious treasure I got recently. I hope you will like it."

"What's so mysterious about it?"

"I don't know, can Lao Jiu come up with any rare treasures?"

"Hmph, with his character of eating, drinking and having fun, what kind of treasure can he have? It is probably an heirloom stolen from a commoner's house?"

"What kind of treasure can those untouchables have? A low-quality jade statue can be regarded as a family heirloom. A bunch of mud-legged people who have never seen the world regard everything as a treasure."

"That's not necessarily true. What if there really is a treasure? Many commoners were partly nobles many generations ago. It's not surprising that one or two rare treasures have been handed down."

"Lao Jiu is usually careless, but with his father supervising him, he won't fool everyone with some low-quality treasures."

"Haha... Then let's wait and see what tricks Lao Jiu has up his sleeve."

…………

"Everyone, please take a look."

Locke removed the red cloth from the exhibition stand, revealing a silver-white transparent rhombus crystal shining brightly in the glass cover.

"What the hell, just an unknown crystal? I thought there was some rare treasure?"

"Lao Jiu is really trying to please others. It's so disappointing."

"Is he treating everyone like monkeys?"

"Hey, my father will not be happy if Lao Jiu goes through such trouble, right?"

"Shhh... keep your voice down, father's face is already ugly."

…………

"Old Jiu, you went to all this trouble just to let your father see your broken crystal? I praised you earlier for being smart and knowing how to combine vertical and horizontal directions, but you didn't expect that your true colors were revealed in the blink of an eye. It's really disappointing."

Luo Zhengchun scolded him mercilessly.

Others gloated.

If Luo Zhengchun is dissatisfied, Locke's status will inevitably decline, and the opportunities for others will be much greater.

However, Locke was not as frightened as he imagined, but rather calm.

His eyes swept over everyone present, and finally stopped on Luo Zhengchun, saying: "Father, please don't be too busy getting angry. Even if Xiaojiu is incompetent, I won't dare to play tricks on you."

Luo Zhengchun couldn't help but nod. Most of his children were uneducated, but none of them were fools.

Lao Jiu only wanted to play tricks on his brothers and sisters, but he would never have the guts to play tricks on his father as well.

Locke looked around and said loudly: "I believe that all the brothers and sisters present are very confused about Xiaojiu's behavior, thinking that I just brought out a low-quality crystal to fool you.

Don't rush to comment yet, if you use your spiritual power to penetrate the crystal, you will understand its true preciousness."

"Hmph, I want to see what's magical about the crystal you mentioned." The strong man Roddy said disdainfully.

He extended a ray of spiritual power into the glass cover to touch the rhombus crystal.

Luo Di's expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed loudly, "What? Impossible, Lao Jiu, how could you have such a thing?"

"Luo Di, what's going on? Is there something wrong with the crystal?" Luo Tianze asked curiously.

"You will understand if you use your mental power to explore."

There was undisguised greed in Lodi's eyes, and his performance aroused the curiosity of everyone present.

One by one, they rushed to extend their spiritual power into the mysterious crystal.

"Wtf, it's unbelievable that such a being, Lao Jiu, is so developed."

"Yes, yes, I'm so envious. Why am I not so lucky?"

"Whoever gets it will soar into the sky, and the small kingdom of holy angels can be destroyed with a snap of the finger."

"I'm really curious, where did Lao Jiu get the treasure?"

"Oh... I really want to take it as my own, but unfortunately I know it's impossible."

Luo Zhengchun was also quite curious about the behavior of his children. What could make them look greedy and shocked when they were used to seeing rare treasures?

"Xiaojiu, what kind of treasure is crystal? Can it make your brothers and sisters lose their temper like this?" Luo Zhengchun asked curiously.

"God...Ge..." Locke said word by word.

"What?" Luo Zhengchun was completely shocked.

He couldn't wait to use his mental power to penetrate into the crystal.

There is a terrifying divine power permeating the rhombus crystal, overwhelming the world.

If it is stimulated, it can destroy heaven and earth.

"The divine power is so powerful. Even if the crystal is not a godhead, it must be closely related to God."

Luo Zhengchun was extremely excited, and his eyes did not hide his greed at all.

Yu Yi observed the outside world in the black bead. The rhombus crystal was made by him after imitating the godhead crystal to fool people.

The divine power in the crystal also belongs to the godhead crystal.

He used special means to channel his divine power into the rhombus crystal and temporarily preserve it.

Yu Yi is limited by his own strength and cannot borrow divine power for a long time, otherwise his soul will not be able to withstand the collapse.

But it does not prevent him from extracting part of the divine power from the godhead crystal and temporarily preserving it with special crystals.

The treasure that Locke originally wanted to show to his brothers and sisters was not a pseudo-godhead, but another item.

Luo Zhengchun's sudden visit disrupted the plan made by Luo Ya and the others.

Yu Yi had no choice but to change his plan temporarily and use the fake godhead he had made long ago to attract Luo Zhengchun's attention.

Obviously, the effect is good.

Both Locke's brothers and sisters, as well as Luo Zhengchun, were all attracted to the pseudo-godhead.

"Father, Xiaojiu invites all brothers and sisters today. In addition to appreciating this crystal that is suspected of being a god, another idea is to give it to you." Locke said.

"Xiao Jiu, do you know what you are talking about? Godhead can make people become gods, are you really willing to give it to your father?"
