Lu Pianpian's pretty face froze, a little ugly.
After not seeing each other for many years, she didn't want to tell Lu Fan about the family situation without even eating when they met.
"Tell me, if Lu Fan can help, he won't refuse."
The one who spoke was Dongfang Yanran.
Lu Fan looked at her in surprise.
You must know that when she was in Shishi, Dongfang Yanran once wanted to summon the old members of the Dongfang family to regroup and fight back to Yanjing.
But he was stopped by Lu Fan.
But now she took the initiative to say that she should help the seventh room of the Lu family.
"Well, first tell me what's going on."
Qin Fan nodded and said.
Lu Pianpian hesitated for a moment and then told Lu Fan the truth.
It turns out that since Lu Zhenguo's death, Lu Fan also disappeared in Shangjing and has been staying in Nandu.
Lu Jianping, as the deputy head of the family who is only younger than Lu Zhenguo among the second-generation figures, should naturally inherit the position of head of the family and take charge of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
But the problem lies in the loss of the Silver Bear Order and the mysterious death of Lu Zhenguo.
Although many people in the clan had long complained about Lu Zhenguo's death, due to Lu Jianping's popularity in the Lu family, they only dared to talk about it in private and did not dare to really bring it to the table.
Lu Zhenguo's only two brothers, Lu Fan's seventh uncle and twelfth uncle, however, stood up and presented a letter with evidence about Lu Fan's biological mother, Ma Yingfeng, who frequently visited Ma's house in Jinling, indicating that Lu Zhenguo's death was very likely related to Lu Zhenguo's death.
Related to Ma Yingfeng.
As one of the best medical families in China, the Ma family is also a poisoning family. Ma Yingfeng is also Lu Zhenguo's bedfellow, so it would be easy to poison Lu Zhenguo.
Otherwise, with Lu Zhenguo's strength, it would be difficult to find a few people even close to him, let alone being killed.
However, this evidence was overturned by Lu Jianping.
He said that Ma Yingfeng had no motive for the murder, and wondered whether the two people's motives were to use the topic to try to split the Lu family.
After this, the seventh and twelfth rooms were targeted by Lu Jianping.
Frame-up, frame-up, assassination... all kinds of methods are endless.
In anger, the owner of the twelve houses betrayed the Lu family and led his people to Northern Xinjiang.
But this time, Lu Jianping suddenly announced that he had made friends with some mysterious monks from the secret realm and was going to entertain the monks from the secret realm. He also invited all members of the Lu family's branch to participate in the banquet.
Let the disciples of each house compete in a competition, hoping to get the guidance of the monks in the secret realm, and the fittest will survive, ranked according to strength, and the family resources will be re-divided.
To put it bluntly, this is for Qifang.
With the advent of the general situation and the revival of spiritual energy, each room received the complete martial arts secrets and exercises provided by Lu Jianping, and their strength increased by leaps and bounds day by day.
Only Qifang has been stagnant.
Originally they were planning to give up, and after receiving this invitation, they left the Lu family and went to Beijing like the Twelve Fangs.
But I never thought that I would meet Lu Fan here.
"Secret Realm Monk?"
After hearing this, Lu Fan chuckled: "Is he an overseas monk?"
Others don't know, but he knows it very well.
Although overseas monks have only recently appeared in China's sight, major families and forces have been in contact with these overseas monks overtly or covertly for a long time.
Some people have even dragged their families and become the lackeys of these monks.
And when Lu Jianping announced the appearance of some secret monk at this time, he made it clear that he was ready to take sides.
Chapter 2782 Lu Family Residence
"Could these so-called secret realm monks be the same people who massacred my Dongfang family?"
Dongfang Yanran spoke in a deep voice, with a hint of coldness in her tone.
"probably not."
Lu Fan shook his head: "Based on my understanding of the people in South China Sea Wonderland, it should not be their style to act separately."
"Moreover, the Lu family in Shangjing and the Dongfang family in Yanjing are too close. If they attack at the same time, their interests will inevitably be involved. They should be monks from other fairylands."
He looked at Dongfang Yanran's unwilling expression: "But it is also possible that those people want to bloom more in the Middle-earth at the same time and take over the northern region in one fell swoop."
"It's just that before I meet these people, it's just speculation and I can't make a conclusion yet."
"Then go and have a look."
Dongfang Yanran said in a deep voice: "Anyway, I have arrived in Shangjing, and I happen to know how strong these overseas monks are."
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you will be able to fight a hundred battles with no danger."
"What's more, sooner or later we will have a battle with them. There is nothing wrong with wiping out their details as soon as possible."
Lu Fan nodded: "Well, it's also important to find out what Lu Jianping is doing now."
He looked at Lu Pianpian: "When is the competition?"
Before Lu Pianpian had time to speak, Lu Xiaochen had already finished making the phone call and came back.
His face was gloomy, but after seeing Lu Fan, he apologized and said, "Cousin, I'm really sorry."
"There are some things going on in the family. I'm afraid I can't have dinner with you."
"What's wrong?" Lu Fan asked curiously.
Lu Xiaochen hesitated for a moment and explained: "Just now, the clan called and said that Lu Jianping sent three secret realm monks to the station to personally select candidates to participate in the next competition."
"Only the people they value are eligible to participate, and the decision is in their hands."
"What we said is useless."
"Asshole!"
Lu Pianpian gritted her teeth: "We are not their playthings. Whatever they say is what they say. Even the candidates who are qualified to participate must be decided by them!"
"This is too bullying!"
"Don't be angry either."
Lu Fan smiled: "These overseas monks are used to being aloof. They are used to controlling other people's lives and deaths. I guess the selection of candidates this time is fake, but the power to give you seven houses is real."
Under Lu Xiaochen's surprised gaze, Lu Fan stood up and said, "I'm not going to eat anymore. Let's go to your seventh room to eat."
Lu Xiaochen was overjoyed and hurriedly arranged a car to take Lu Fan and Dongfang Yanran to Qifang Station.
The Lu family in Shangjing has flourishing branches, and each head of the family can be called a huge family, distributed in various areas of Shangjing.
Qifang Residential Area is located in the suburbs of Shangjing. It is a geomantic treasure land, shrouded in the aura of wealth, power and wealth.
Dozens of villas are built against the mountains, with bright lights, and warriors standing in front of the doors, which are heavily guarded.
Lu Xiaochen personally drove the Bentley through the gate of the manor and into the main venue.
At this moment, hundreds of people are gathering in the martial arts training field in the middle. Everyone is wearing black uniforms and has a gloomy face, but their bodies are full of true energy, and most of them have cultivated to the realm of grand masters.
When Lu Fan got out of the car, he saw several old men with restrained spirits and full of vitality. Two of them looked very familiar. Just when Lu Fan wanted to see who they were.
"Lu, Lu Fan?"
An extremely surprised voice suddenly sounded behind Lu Fan.
Lu Fan turned around in shock and saw a dark-faced middle-aged man standing behind him, looking at him with red eyes.
"Uncle Seven?"
Lu Fan was surprised when he saw the middle-aged man.

Lu Zhenming.
Lu Fan's seventh uncle, the owner of the seventh house of the Lu family.
They were also blood brothers who lived and died side by side with Lu Zhenguo in Northern Xinjiang.
