The two of them had just said a few words when they saw Xia Quanyu walking out with a stern face.
"Lu Yang, my dad wants to talk to you alone, come with me!"
Although Lu Yang couldn't stand Xia Quanyu's arrogance, now that Xia Quanyu didn't take the initiative to find trouble, Lu Yang couldn't say anything, so he followed Xia Quanyu into the private room of the teahouse.
In the private room, Xia Hong saw Lu Yang come in and took the initiative to stand up to greet him. A smile appeared on his face.
"Xiaoyang is here!"
Seeing Xia Hongcai's attitude, Lu Yang immediately looked at Xia Xinyi. Both of them saw surprise in each other's eyes.
You know, the last time Xia Hongcai met Lu Yang, he didn't have this attitude. At that time, Xia Hongcai didn't take Lu Yang seriously at all. He didn't even look at Lu Yang once, let alone getting up to greet him.
Today, Xia Hongcai was actually willing to take the initiative to stand up and greet him. The attitude before and after was indeed very different.
Lu Yang speculated that Xia Hongcai's change in attitude towards him was probably due to the several confrontations between his son and him in the past few days, which gave Xia Hongcai a better understanding of his own strength; he knew that he was not that easy to bully.
Lu Yang knows very well that no matter where he goes, strength is always the most important reason to gain respect from others.
Lu Yang didn't like the snobbery of Xia Hongcai and his son either.
If it weren't for Xia Hong being Xia Linglan's father, Lu Yang wouldn't be here today.
"Uncle Xia, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Although Lu Yang did not look directly at Xia Hongcai, his tone was obviously harsh.
Xia Hongcai winked at his son Xia Quanyu.
Xia Quanyu understood and immediately said to Xia Xinyi: "Cousin, please go out with me for a while. My dad has something to talk to Lu Yang alone!"
Xia Xinyi had no choice but to follow Xia Quanyu out of the private room.
Xia Hong saw the two people leaving, and then said to Lu Yang: "Xiao Yang, I called you here today because I hope you can join our Xia family."
Lu Yang was stunned for a moment.
"What does Uncle Xia mean by this?"
"Could it be that Uncle Xia doesn't plan to marry Senior Sister Lan to Song Tong again?"
Xia Hongcai shook his head.
"The marriage between Lan Lan and Senior Nephew Song is impossible to change. I called you here today just because I hope you can join our Xia family and work for our Xia family."
Xia Hongcai said and glanced outside the door.
"As long as you are willing to serve our Xia family, I can convince my brother to marry this girl Xinyi to you."
"In addition, I can also recommend you to enter the Qingyang Palace and become a disciple of the palace master!"
"how?"
In Xia Hongcai's view, it was a great opportunity for Lu Yang, a small figure from a wild Taoist temple, to have the opportunity to become a disciple of the master of Qingyang Palace!
There are countless people with higher status than Lu Yang in the world who want to become the master of Qingyang Palace, but they have no chance. Xia Hongcai felt that he could provide Lu Yang with this opportunity, which was already a very generous condition.
If he hadn't heard from his son that Lu Yang was now a fifth-level monk, Xia Hongcai wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to Lu Yang.
After listening to Xia Hongcai's words, Lu Yang finally understood what he was thinking.
Xia Hongcai clearly wanted to curry favor with Qingyang Palace, but also wanted Lu Yang to work for their Xia family!
Understanding Xia Hongcai's intentions, Lu Yang's face turned cold.
"Thank you Uncle Xia for your kindness. However, I don't want to be a disciple of Qingyang Palace, and I won't let you force Senior Sister Lan to marry Song Tong!"
Xia Hongcai was stunned for a moment. He thought that when Lu Yang heard that he wanted to recommend him to be his disciple to the Master of Qingyang Palace, even if he wouldn't kneel down to thank him, he would at least agree happily.
Xia Hongcai never expected that Lu Yang not only did not kneel down to thank him, but instead rejected him flatly.
Xia Hongcai thought that Lu Yang rejected him because he didn't know the strength of Qingyang Palace. Xia Hongcai quickly explained to Lu Yang.
"Lu Yang, I know that you have entered the realm of a fifth-level monk. But if you think that with your strength, you can compete with Qingyang Palace, then you are totally wrong!"
"Let me tell you, there are at least ten people in Qingyang Palace who are just fifth-level monks. Palace Master Song and his junior sister Han Lingyun have already reached the level of seventh-level monks.
Even ten of you are no match for Palace Master Song and his talented little junior sister.
If you are interested, I will recommend you to the master of Qingyang Palace.
Then, we will all be a family from now on."
When Xia Hong said this, his face slowly turned cold.
"But if you don't know what's interesting, there is only one result waiting for you - death!"
Xia Hongcai obviously planned to use both kindness and power to make Lu Yang work for the Xia family.
Naturally, Lu Yang would not fall for Xia Hongcai's tricks! His true strength was already three points stronger than the master of Qingyang Palace. How could he possibly become his disciple, Song Chenghong, the master of Qingyang Palace!
Lu Yang stood up coldly.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Xia. If you don't have anything else to do, I'll leave first!"
When Xia Hongcai saw that Lu Yang was not giving him face, his face became even more ugly.
"Lu Yang, don't refuse to drink the toast, you'll have to drink the wine as a penalty!"
Lu Yang saw that Xia Hongcai finally took off his mask, and Lu Yang didn't want to pretend to be like Xia Hongcai anymore.
"I'm sorry, I always drink wine and don't even drink as a penalty!"
With that said, Lu Yang turned around and started to go out.
Xia Hongcai sneered.
"Boy, do you think you can walk out of here today?"
Xia Hongcai said, slamming the table.
Eight men in black immediately rushed in outside the door, each holding a long gun.
Eight people and eight guns were all pointed at Lu Yang's head.
Xia Hongcai slowly stood up, his face returning to the same arrogance and disdain he had when he saw Lu Yang a few days ago.
"Lu Yang, have you thought about it?"
"I am a person who has always followed me and prospered, and those who go against me will perish."
"The sniper rifles used by my eight men can reach ten times the speed of ordinary pistols. No matter how fast you are, you cannot avoid these eight guns at the same time."
When Xia Hong said this, a proud smile appeared on his face.
"Lu Yang, there are only two ways before you now. Either accept my conditions and work hard for our Xia family."
"Or-die!"
Lu Yang looked at Xia Hongcai with a smile on his face.
Xia Hongcai saw that Lu Yang could still laugh, and his face was full of confusion.
"Lu Yang, don't think that I am joking with you! The bullets of the guns used by my eight men can really reach ten times the speed of the rifle!
Not to mention you are only a fifth-level monk, even if you are a seventh-level monk, there is no way you can avoid these eight sniper rifles at such a close distance at the same time!"
Lu Yang looked at Xia Hongcai, the expression on his face was still relaxed.
