Luo Tianci responded respectfully: "There was also Xiong Yuan of Ti Zong present at the time. He can testify."
Luo Guangde helped and said: "The authenticity of what Tianci said is not difficult to investigate. What we should consider now is the matter of the two hundred and fifty high-grade Origin Stones!"
There was a bit of anger on Luo Xuanqiu's old face, "The resources of our Luo family are not so difficult! Even if that person did save Tianci, we can't just give him that much reward!"
Luo Guangzhou agreed: "In my opinion, if that person has no intention to exist, we can just form a good relationship and make friends with him in the name of the Luo family."
Luo Guangde also nodded and asked, "Do you know the identity and background of the person who saved you?"
A flash of discomfort flashed across Luo Tianci's face. It was obvious that he didn't like the behavior of these elders. They seemed to be deciding how to treat others based on their status. It was a bit of bullying and fear of the strong.
"At first he was just the tutor of a small spiritual prison in the east, but later by some strange combination of circumstances, he became the new head of the Qingshan Sword Sect."
Luo Tianci truthfully stated some of the investigations into Lu Feng. At the end, he added: "Elders, please delegate your authority and let Tianci handle this matter on his own."
Luo Guangzhou warned with a gloomy face: "Don't forget the lesson learned from the Flowing Light Sword Sect. It's better not to get too close to such a sect!"
Luo Tianci retorted: "The former Liuguang Sword Sect has no grudges against my Luo family. Although it has many hostile forces, it has nothing to do with my friendship with Brother Lu. Regardless of his identity, just
He is not afraid of offending Shen Fenggu and dares to save my life, so God is willing to try to make this friend!"
"Furthermore, with his strength not weaker than Huai Ziyou, he will definitely shine in the soul master world in the future. For this, Tianci is willing to take a gamble!"
The three elders all fell into a brief silence after listening to Luo Tianci's words.
The Luo family is a business family, and it is their nature to be profit-seeking. The older generation is even more aware of this, and they would gamble on the future value of a descendant with two hundred and fifty high-grade Origin Stones...
To be honest, if it were them, they would definitely not dare!
But... considering Luo Tianci's performance over the years, they had to think carefully about this matter.
After a long while, the leader, Luo Xuanqiu, sighed earnestly, "More than two hundred Origin Stones are not a small amount after all. You can delay this matter for a while. After we return, we, the five elders, will carefully consider it together before making a conclusion.
"
Luo Tianci had no choice but to suppress the persistence in his heart and respectfully bid farewell to the three elders.
Luo Guangde deliberately took a step slowly. After Luo Xuanqiu and Luo Guangzhou left, he took out a Na ring and handed it to Luo Tianci.
"It's not a problem if you don't have some Source Stone by your side!"
"Grandpa~" Luo Tianci held the ring in his hand with emotion, his eyes turning slightly red.
Luo Guangde patted Luo Tianci on the shoulder, nodded solemnly to him, and then walked away.
Although he had no words, how could Luo Tianci not understand the meaning.
Looking inside, there are nearly three hundred high-grade Origin Stones hidden in the ring!
Luo Tianci understood that his grandfather had the same temperament as himself and would definitely not do anything to line his own pockets. These huge amounts of Origin Stone resources, Hao Ran, were the latter's daily savings, and even his life savings!
Feeling this kind of kindness, Luo Tianci had a lot of emotions and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
…
In the side hall.
Huang Helou learned about Luo Tianci's whereabouts from the conversation between servants in the distance, and couldn't help but wonder: "Sect Master, do you think Luo Tianci was called there because of the Origin Stones he owed you?"
Lu Feng smiled meaningfully, "That's not the point of the question. The point is where those deacons and elders got the news!"
Huang Helou was startled and suddenly understood, "It's... it was that boy Luo Tianfu who told the secret!?"
Lu Feng sneered and nodded. Before meeting Luo Tianfu, he had deliberately concealed it, not even revealing it to Huang Helou.
Huang Helou said scornfully: "How dare that boy's previous lazy and drunken attitude was all just an act? This is a really dirty trick!"
Lu Feng sneered and said: "I would say he is a bit stupid. He thought he was right and went to report without knowing anything. It might be self-defeating and make those deacons and elders feel disgusted!"
Huang Helou's eyes narrowed, "What the sect leader means is... Luo Tianci's trip will not only be fine, but will also get the consent of those elders?"
Lu Feng nodded, "If he can't even settle this, then he will definitely not be able to hold the position of head of the Luo family."
While the two were talking, Luo Tianci's hearty laughter came from outside the hall, "Brother Lu, why didn't you say hello in advance when he came? Tianci didn't greet you well, he didn't greet you well." Following the voice came Luo Tianci's words.
A tall and proud figure, with a warm smile on his handsome face.
Lu Feng smiled when he saw this and stood up to greet Luo Tianci.
"I heard the maid mentioned... that my younger brother met Brother Lu not long ago?"
The smile on Luo Tianci's face was still there, but Lu Feng no longer felt any warmth from it, only a chill.
Obviously, Luo Tianci already understood the reason for the accountability of the deacons and elders, and at the same time, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Luo Feng for telling Luo Tianfu about the 'debt'.
Lu Feng was not affected by the chill in Luo Tianci's words. His expression remained the same and he responded gently: "The word 'interview' is absolutely unacceptable. He will not shut me out. I am already satisfied."
Similarly, Luo Tianci also felt a chill of displeasure from Lu Feng's smile.
He frowned secretly, thinking that Luo Tianfu was a person, and he had a vague understanding of it. Most of the situations were caused by some unkind words he said.
Now I am less dissatisfied with Lu Feng's 'leakage'.
Huang Helou stood on one side, listening to the two people's friendly exchange of swords behind their backs. He couldn't help but be secretly frightened. At the same time, he felt admiration for Lu Feng's counterattack and his calm demeanor in resolving the situation.
To be the leader of a sect, it is not enough to have strong strength. You also need to be thorough in dealing with people in order to go far.
Obviously, Lu Feng's performance has won Huang Helou's heart.
Luo Tianci said with a hint of apology: "Tianfu is used to being domineering. If he offends Brother Lu, I, as the elder brother, will apologize here. I hope Brother Lu won't worry about it."
Lu Feng immediately interrupted Luo Tianci's apology, his expression still showing some seriousness, "Brother Luo, I just don't know if your brother doesn't want to be involved with our clan. Is it his personal intention, or does it represent your Luo family?"
Luo Tianci looked stern when he heard this. How could he not have guessed what happened between Luo Tianfu and Lu Feng? Luo Feng could no longer be blamed at all. He looked apologetically and said: "Tianfu has always done his own thing, and he definitely cannot represent the Luo family. Please
Brother Lu, don’t be the same as him, Tianci wants to make Brother Lu a good friend from the bottom of his heart!”
Immediately, he took out a prepared ring to show his sincerity.
"Brother Lu," Luo Tianci said kindly: "This is part of the Origin Stone that I promised you."
"Part of the source stone?"
Lu Feng's expression condensed and he looked at Luo Tianci without knowing why.
