"Aunt Lu is my prospective mother-in-law. It is impossible for me to help you kill her."
When Lu Chengji saw that Lu Yang refused to help him kill Lu Jin, he chuckled.
"Okay, then I'll take a step back. Give me the water-proof bead you got in the afternoon, and I can consider letting Xiaoyan go with you."
Lu Yang gritted his teeth.
"I have already given the water-avoiding beads to Aunt Lu. Palace Master Lu should change the conditions!"
Lu Chengji chuckled.
"Lu Yang, it's not that I didn't give you a chance, it's that you refused to agree."
"Okay, then I will give you one last chance. You can join our Tianji Palace now and follow my arrangements in the future. I can also let Xiaoyan follow you and stop marrying her to another man."
As he spoke, Lu Chengji took out a jade plaque with the Big Dipper on it.
"As long as you drop a drop of blood on this Tianji star, I promise never to mention marrying Xiaoyan to anyone else again."
Lu Yang looked at the jade token handed over by Lu Chengji. When he was hesitating, Shangguan Yan had already knocked the jade token away.
"Senior Brother Lu, you must not bleed. If you bleed on this jade tablet, you will have to obey the orders of our Tianji Palace for the rest of your life, become a slave of our Tianji Palace, and lose your freedom forever.
If you dare to disobey the palace lord’s order, the palace lord can make your life worse than death as long as he uses some tricks on this jade tablet!”
Lu Yang didn't expect that Lu Chengji's jade plaque could have such an effect, and he couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
If Shangguan Yan hadn't stopped him just now, he might have dripped blood on it. If so, he would have to be Lu Chengji's slave for the rest of his life!
Thinking of Lu Chengji's insidiousness, Lu Yang couldn't help but clenched his fists.
But thinking of Shangguan Yan, Lu Yang slowly loosened his fist again.
After all, Lu Chengji was kind to Shangguan Yan. When Lu Jin wanted to kill Lu Chengji, Shangguan Yan would rather exchange her life for Lu Chengji's. If Lu Yang killed Lu Chengji, even if Shangguan Yan didn't avenge Lu Chengji, it would be impossible for him to reconcile with her again.
He is a friend!
Not to mention couples.
Thinking of Shangguan Yan, Lu Yang could only sigh secretly and gave up his plan to deal with Lu Chengji.
Lu Chengji was furious when he saw that Shangguan Yan had exposed his conspiracy.
"You rip-off bitches!"
As Lu Chengji said this, he slapped Shangguan Yan hard on the face.
Lu Yang quickly took action and grabbed Lu Chengji's wrist.
"Palace Master Lu, Xiaoyan is a disciple of your Tianji Palace. But she is not your slave! If you beat and scold you at will like this, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Lu Chengji laughed.
"Lu Yang, who do you think you are?"
"I raised Shangguan Yan from a young age, and I taught her the cultivation techniques. Without me, she would have died long ago.
Therefore, her life is naturally mine.
How I want to beat her is my business and you have no control over it!"
As he said this, Lu Chengji pulled out his hand and hit Shangguan Yan on the face again.
Lu Yang took action again, accurately grasped Lu Chengji's wrist, and stared at Lu Chengji coldly.
"What if I have to take care of it?"
Lu Chengji chuckled.
"Boy, do you think you can stop me like this?"
"Even if I don't take action, I can still punish her!"
Lu Chengji said and glared at Shangguan Yan.
"Smelly girl, slap yourself twice!"
Lu Yang immediately shouted to Shangguan Yan, "Xiaoyan, don't listen to him! We didn't make any mistakes, why should we beat ourselves?"
Shangguan Yan looked at Lu Chengji hesitantly and then at Lu Yang, with a troubled look on his face.
In Shangguan Yan's heart, although Lu Chengji was not kind to her, she still felt grateful for Lu Chengji's nurturing grace. Ever since she was a child, Shangguan Yan had always treated Lu Chengji as her father.
And Lu Yang was Shangguan Yan's favorite person.
Now Lu Chengji asked her to slap herself, and Lu Yang didn't allow her to slap herself. Shangguan Yan didn't know what to do for a while.
Just when Shangguan Yan hesitated, Lu Chengji glared at her again.
"Shangguan Yan, if you dare to disobey my orders, you will never recognize me as the palace master in the future, and you will no longer be a disciple of our Tianji Palace!"
Lu Chengji knew that Shangguan Yan was a girl who valued friendship and always regarded Tianji Palace as her home, so he deliberately used this to put pressure on Shangguan Yan.
When Shangguan Yan heard what Lu Chengji said, he really didn't dare to hesitate anymore.
"Palace Master, I will fight. I will fight right away!"
"You must not drive me out of Tianji Palace!"
As she spoke, Shangguan Yan slapped her twice hard on the face.
Shangguan Yan's originally fair and pretty face suddenly showed two clear palm prints.
Seeing that Lu Yang could not stop Shangguan Yan, Lu Yang understood more and more that if Lu Chengji was allowed to take Shangguan Yan back today, Shangguan Yan would die in Lu Chengji's hands sooner or later!
This only strengthened Lu Yang's determination to take Shangguan Yan away.
Lu Yang took out his mobile phone and called Yuan Hong.
"Senior Yuan, I have another thing to ask you for help. After the task is completed, I will give you a roast suckling pig and a box of beer. How about it?"
Lu Yang said, briefly explaining the conflict between him and Lu Chengji to Yuan Hong.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hong nodded immediately.
"No problem, deal!"
Lu Chengji looked at Lu Yang coldly at this time.
"Boy, let me tell you, it won't work no matter who you invite!"
"I raised this girl Shangguan Yan. Her life belongs to me, Lu Chengji! What I want to do with her is my right, and no one can stop her!"
As soon as Lu Chengji finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from the air.
"I, Yuan Hong, can't do it either?"
While talking, Yuan Hong came to Lu Chengji.
When Lu Chengji saw Yuan Hong, he stood stunned on the spot!
Lu Chengji never expected that the helper Lu Yang found would be the city lord of Black Dragon Town - Yuan Hong!
Yuan Hong is the local emperor of Black Dragon Town! Moreover, Yuan Hong is also the number one master here. If Lu Chengji doesn't sell his face, Yuan Hong can kill him in minutes!
Seeing Yuan Hong interceding for Lu Yang, Lu Chengji no longer dared to be as tough as he was with Lu Yang.
Lu Chengji smiled at Yuan Hong.
"City Lord Yuan, this is a matter of our Tianji Palace. Can you please give me some face and stop interfering?"
Yuan Hong looked at Lu Chengji coldly.
"I'm sorry, I'm still in charge of this matter!"
Yuan Hong said as he walked up to Shangguan Yan.
"Girl, we are destined to be father and son. I will accept you as my god-granddaughter. Are you willing?"
Shangguan Yan met Yuan Hong last time. At that time, she didn't know that Yuan Hong was the city lord of Black Dragon Town, and she even had a bad temper with Yuan Hong.
Just now, Shangguan Yan was stunned when she heard that Lu Chengji called Yuan Hongyuan City Lord. Now when she heard that the old man said that he wanted to adopt her as his granddaughter, Shangguan Yan couldn't believe her ears!
Lu Yang immediately pushed Shangguan Yan quietly.
"Xiaoyan, why don't you hurry up and call me grandpa!"
Only then did Shangguan Yan react and quickly shouted, "Hello, Grandpa!"
