This is what cultivating immortals is like

Xiongchu's envoy met with a wall at Jianzong, and Lu Bei didn't even see him. He received one million in labor fees and returned to Xiongchu to resume his mission.

To convey the original words, he, Lu, doesn’t want any apprenticeship or anything like that.

Add one million, and try to let the hostages go as peacefully as possible when tearing up the tickets. The mood must be stable, and don't come to the door to make noise in the future.

Xiongchu was in a complicated state of mind. He had never seen anything like this in the divine dynasty for thousands of years.

I have never seen this scene before.

But Lu Bei didn't care about his disciples in the Baodan realm. It didn't matter whether they lived or died. Xiongchu couldn't live without King Yuanji in the Earthly Immortal Realm. The Gu family used official channels and contacted the Zhu family of Wuzhou.

Ask the Tianjian Sect what it means, and if possible, introduce him to him. The Xiongchu envoy is full of sincerity and wants to have an interview with the leader of the Tianjian Sect.

Others didn't know what Lu Bei meant, but the old Zhu family, who was deeply poisoned by Lu Bei, knew clearly that Sect Master Lu thought the price quoted was too low and had to pay more.

Several old emperors got together and kicked out the current emperor. After discussion, they decided to give Xiong Chu a hand.

For the sake of Wu Zhou and Xiong Chu's long-term friendship, I don't want money to hurt my feelings. Just give me some magic weapons, secrets of exercises, mining rights, import and export trade tax rates, etc. Just think about it.

We are all brothers, I am too polite to rush you!

Who the hell is your brother!

For a moment, Xiongchu couldn't help but have the idea of ​​​​attacking Yuezhou, attacking the Tianjian Sect, and asking Lu Bei to come out to discuss.

But no, wars are not fought on the spur of the moment, especially if you invade the territory of another country without strategic tactics, sufficient food and grass, and the international environment does not allow it, you will only bring humiliation to yourself.

Although Wu Zhou was a younger brother, he was not good enough to be manipulated by Xiong Chu.

The two parties bargained, and Xiongchu paid a certain price and asked Lao Zhu's family to act as a middleman, and then Zhu Xiushi came to the door.

"Tell me, what price did Xiongchu pay?"

"State secrets, no comment."

Zhu Xiushi shook his head with a serious face, indicating that he was tight-lipped, and then smiled: "Besides, they are all worthless trinkets. They are just for fun for poor people. I will definitely not see the great achievements of Sect Master Lu..."

"Um?!"

"That's it."

Zhu Xiushi told the truth and talked about the transactions between the two countries, including the secret realm of Xiongchu's new world. Monk Wu Zhou could share the opportunities in the secret realm with the local monks of Xiongchu through official channels.

Lu Bei raised his hand and touched his chin: "Xiong Chu paid so much just to meet with our sect leader, and the envoy was a great beauty from the Gu family. What did your Zhu family do? You are not at all defensive, and you are not afraid that our sect leader will be Has the beauty seduced you?"

So you sent me here!

Zhu Xiushi was unhappy, secretly saying that the clan was cold-blooded and ruthless. In order to ensure long-term peace and stability for Wu Zhou, he actually sent an eight-hundred-year-old princess to use a beauty trap.

Isn’t this pushing people into a pit of fire?

After all, she was a shameless person, so she did not say it clearly, but praised: "Sect Master Lu is not good at women, and no one in Wu Zhou knows that. Not to mention that Xiongchu only came to one great beauty, even if there were ten, you would still have eyesight." If you don’t blink, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

"Indeed, I couldn't bear to blink after looking at it."

Lu Bei complained, thought for a moment, saw through it, and looked at Zhu Xiushi angrily: "I understand, Lao Zhu's family received the money, not as a middleman, but as a pimp."

"..."

With Zhu Xiushi as a lobbyist, Lu Bei was willing to sell her face and agreed to meet Xiong Chu's cart.

King Yuanji is useless if he keeps it, and it will lose value if it is pressed for too long.

Moreover, he is a big man, and he is not a beautiful woman. How can he be raised in a small dark room? It's time to take action.

Just in case Lao Zhu's family had received dirty money, his butt was crooked, and he really had the idea of ​​pimping, Lu Bei set the meeting place at the Xuanlong Diplomat's Residence opposite Zangqian Mountain.

With the white hair of the Zhao family watching, neither the pig nor the cart dared to act recklessly.

————

Palace.

The dance is light and agile, and the water is thin and misty.

She has white hair on her waist, her hair is tied up and her makeup is done up, she is wearing a red robe and dance skirt, her shoulders are cut into a plain waist, and there are three red lotus petals between her eyebrows. Her appearance is so beautiful that it is eye-catching.

There is nothing to say about the dance, with butterflies flying among the flowers and lotuses growing step by step, and like the bright moon shining on the deep mountains, and the quiet brook gurgling and swaying. It is as good as Xunyi, the idol of the capital who made her debut in singing and dancing, and it is very pleasing to the eyes.

After the song ended, Zhao Wuyou returned to the back hall to change clothes.

Zhu Xiushi held the teacup, took a sip, and tasted the bitter taste: "Sect Master Lu is so chic. Such a well-behaved beauty who comes and goes as easily as he calls, makes others envious!"

"What this sect leader doesn't want to do is that your old Zhu family can't defend the country, so Xuanlong sends a concubine who can take advantage of it." Lu Bei retorted.

This is indeed the truth. If Wu Zhou had been tougher, this diplomat's residence would no longer exist.

Zhu Xiushi reluctantly put down the tea cup. Xuanlong's ability to persuade people with reason was far superior to that of Wu Zhou, Xiong Chu, and Qi Yan. The Zhao family wanted to get a piece of the Zhu family's bowl. Although the Zhu family was not willing, they could only smile. Welcome, I hope my eldest brother will drink less soup when he eats meat.

A moment later, Zhao Wuyou entered the room dressed in white, cinched his slim waist with his hands, walked towards Xiangfeng and sat down next to Lu Bei.

"Congratulations to Master Lu for his diligent cultivation, enlightenment, and salvation, and a long life ahead of him." Zhao Wuyou poured half a glass of wine and handed it over.

"We are all old friends. We are getting angry just by saying these kind words."

Lu Bei drank half a glass of wine and changed the topic: "Let's be practical. It took me two years to successfully overcome the tribulation. The hardships I put in and the dangers I experienced are hard for others to imagine. You, as a friend, have no idea. express?"

Zhao Wuyou smiled softly. She didn't express anything, but Xuanlong officially expressed it, took off the Qiankun Ring from his index finger and handed it over.

Zhu Xiushi: "..."

Judging from her skillful appearance, Xuanlong must have spent a lot of money to seduce the leader of the Tianjian Sect.

The three of them were chatting and laughing, but after a while, the administrative staff of the official residence came to report that the envoy from Xiongchu had arrived outside the palace.

Lu Bei raised his brows, glanced at Zhao Wuyou, raised his hands and wrapped his arms around his slim waist, pulling him into his arms.

Nice waist.

Touching it with his fingertips, it was as soft as bone. He had only touched it on She Zhang's body.

Zhao Wuyou's face was slightly red, he poured half a glass of wine, handed it to Lu Bei's mouth and served him to drink.

Zhu Xiushi: "..."

This is not a diplomat, he is clearly a diplomat.

Bah, shameless!

In the battle of Xuanlong Gushan City, Lu Bei blocked the demon army and killed the demon king Lu Li. He was a favor to Zhao Wuyou for saving his life, and at the same time he was a favor to avenge his father's murder.

Without Lu Bei, not only would Zhao Wuyou's old father's body be reduced to a lonely ghost, but Zhao Wuyou would also be convicted, his family tree removed and demoted to a commoner, and he would have to guard the border for the rest of his life.

Therefore, although Zhao Wuyou had no romantic feelings for Lu Bei, he did not refuse when he received the diplomat mission.

If it was Lu Bei, she wouldn't mind.

Coincidentally, Lu Bei had no romantic feelings for Zhao Wuyou. He pitied her for her poor background and often came to the official residence. Chatting and dancing kept her on task, lest she be transferred back to Xuanlong and one day Yu Mianxiangxiao died in battle on the front line.

As for how the outside world spread the word, Lu Bei was completely in trouble.

Because Emperor Ji Zong acted evilly and told the truth, his reputation was ruined and he could not be cleansed.

Dan said it doesn’t matter, I love you however you want.

Open up!

Xuanlong was neither urging nor anxious, and never asked whether Zhao Wuyou had taken hostages.

Whether he gets promoted or not is his business, and whether he gets it or not is my business.

He can refuse to accept it, but I cannot refuse to send it.

Xuanlong also followed the Buddhist route of eating meat and soup. In comparison, Wu Zhou was slightly more utilitarian. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lao Zhu's family was desperate to kidnap a hostage.

However, this is not the fault of Lao Zhu's family. Tianjian Sect is in Wuzhou, and a slight mistake will cause a big chaos. He cannot be as calm as Xuanlong.

Zhao Wuyou leaned in Lu Bei's arms, his soft voice and laughter were as gentle as water. Zhu Xiushi looked at him and frowned. The wrong person was here. The clan should send Zhu Qilan over.

There was no way, the distant water could not quench the near thirst, so she had to drink it first.

Zhu Xiushi stood up and sat on the right side of Lu Bei. He picked up the little boy's hand and put it on his waist, took the chopsticks and started eating.

The old princess who has been in charge of the warehouse for eight hundred years is also a fun-loving person. She has no experience in serving people. Instead of feeding her, she uses chopsticks to stuff her throat.

Lu Bei rolled his eyes, took the chopsticks and put them in Zhao Wuyou's hands, then pushed the wine glass in front of Zhu Xiushi.

"Don't embarrass yourself. After all, your abilities are limited. Pouring wine is simple. You can do it with your hands and don't need your brain."

"..."

Zhu Xiushi had an indignant look on his face, while Zhao Wuyou covered his mouth and smiled sweetly. With a small wine table, the brotherhood between Xuanlong and Wu Zhou was evident.

Soon, there was Xiong Chu on the wine table.

The woman is tall and has long legs, her robe is as white as frost, her long hair is tied behind her head, her face is flawless and delicate, and her silver eyes are cold and deep.

He is unsmiling and has a cold temperament.

Xiongchu, ancient Yuanping.

According to the information provided by Zhu Xiushi, Gu Yuanping was the royal sister of King Yuanji and King Yuanxuan, and the kind-hearted aunt of Lord Xinli.

I have not inherited titles such as King Xiongchu or Jun.

It's not because of lack of strength. With her cultivation as a third-level tribulation-transforming Earth Immortal, it's not difficult to get a title. The specific reason seems to be that she gave up the title to her clan brother Yuanji King.

Although she has no title, she has another identity.

On the coast of the eastern border of Xiongchu, there is Duanlang Mountain, the Zhanhai Pavilion that has been the gate of immortal cultivation for thousands of years, and Gu Yuanping is the current head.

It’s not surprising that Xiongchu has national conditions here, and its princes are all trained by the Immortal Cultivation School in the territory. Whoever is the best will be the next king.

In order to taste the dividends of the monarch, all the sects of the sect have devoted their cultivation resources to the prince. Over the past thousand years, the bloodline of the Gu family has been spread all over the Xiong Chu immortal cultivation forces. As long as they are of some level, they are basically the head, presiding officer and sect leader.

With this move, even if there was a civil war over the throne, the next monarch's surname could be guaranteed to be Gu.

"I have met the ancient pavilion master, Lu Bei of Tianjian Sect. I have heard about the name of the pavilion master for a long time. When I saw him today, he was really domineering."

Lu Bei stood up and bowed, and was more than ten steps away from Gu Yuanping. The average altitude of the Gu family's cart was two meters above sea level. Although Gu Yuanping was only 1.9 meters tall, he was still taller than him, so he didn't step forward and laughed at him for being stupid. Already.

"I have met Sect Leader Lu, Gu is very polite."

Gu Yuanping raised his hand to return the gift, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught the two beauties on the left and right of Lu Bei. If he saw it right, they were hugging each other just now.

What do you mean, this is considered a show of authority?

If it were just the Zhao family's white hair, it would indeed be a show of force, but with the addition of the Zhu family's female cultivator in the tribulation period...

Showing off one's power is not like showing off one's power, but more like taking the initiative to show one's identity as a lecher.

Humph, the rumors are not believable, this man is definitely not a lecher!
