Chapter 2372: Let Me Tell You a Story

He raised the sword and hung it on his neck. The blade of the sword was cold. Yu Tianlu was so shocked that his heart trembled and he quickly stopped talking.

At this time, she finally saw the face of the visitor clearly. It was a face that was not handsome, but very cold.

Moreover, he is still very young...

Looking at Bai Chen's face disguised as Luo Xi, Yu Tianlu's beautiful eyes turned to him with a charming look, and his voice suddenly became sweet.

"Look at you, you are so rude, you scare people~"

"Scared?" Bai Chen sneered, stretched out his hand and pinched her chin: "Didn't you bite me back just now? Why, did you turn into a pheasant in the blink of an eye?"

"Just now..." He pinched his chin and stared at Bai Chen's deep eyes at close range. Yu Tianlu actually found that inexplicable fear arose in his heart.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Bai Chen released his palms, put his hands behind his hands and looked at the sky, maintaining a confident air.

"I guess you will definitely choose to follow Zhuge Feng's arrangements, right?"

Hearing this, Yu Tianlu's face darkened.

He actually even knew Zhuge Feng's plan?

Could it be that the power of Wanchao Pavilion has penetrated into Luocao Hall?

"Shen Heyun is too ambitious. If he dominates the world, he will not allow alchemists to be used by other forces. Therefore, whether it is the Dan Pavilion or the Alchemist Guild, he will use the strongest means to capture them. If I If you refuse, I’m afraid you won’t be used by him and will be killed by him!”

Although Yu Tianlu left angrily on the surface, he was actually hoping in his heart that the people from Luo Caotang would come over quickly and chase her back.

But she didn't expect that the people chasing her were actually people from Wanchao Pavilion!

Having already understood Yu Tianlu's thoughts, Bai Chen smiled calmly, leaned under the tree, and looked directly at her with lazy eyes.

"Well, let me tell you a story~"

…

Once upon a time, there was a mountain.

In the mountains, there is a temple.

Inside the temple, there lived an old beggar and a young beggar.

Their life was very embarrassing. Due to natural disasters, all the local people were displaced to other places, leaving only the two of them, living in the mountains all day long eating grass roots and chewing tree bark.

Gradually, the old beggar's body could no longer hold on. In order to let the little beggar survive, he said to him: "Kill me, cut off my flesh, and then take it out and go outside." Let’s live well in this world. By the way, help me find my long-lost granddaughter, who has a butterfly-shaped birthmark on the back of her neck.”

After finishing speaking, the old beggar closed his eyes silently.

Later, the little beggar finally made it all the way to Qiongzhou according to what he said.

After arriving there, he didn't take the old beggar's matter to heart, but in order to live a decent life, he went to a large family, the Jiang family, and became a servant there.

At the Jiang family, he accidentally saw the third wife, who actually had a black butterfly birthmark on the back of her neck.

The little beggar did not tell her the truth because he was afraid that she would take revenge on him.

But he wanted to take advantage of her, so he found the third lady when no one was around, and told her: "I took care of your grandfather in the temple, and it wasn't until he died that he asked me to go outside to find you. "

After listening to his description, the third lady believed that he was not lying, and in order to thank him, she promoted him to the position of general manager.

Later, after this man gained a certain amount of power, he was not satisfied and began to gradually covet the beauty of the third lady.

In order to be able to climb up, he found the Feng family who was against the Jiang family, and secretly colluded with the Feng family to have a final fight with the Jiang family.

The original plan was to combine inside and outside, but when Jiang and Feng were fighting to the death, this man suddenly brought the people he had trained in the early days and made a profit.

Finally, he unified the two families and became the most powerful family in Qiongzhou, and forcibly took possession of the third lady who had helped him.

Repeatedly repaying kindness with hatred and burning bridges again and again, which made him famous at that time. Later, relying on his extraordinary talent, he created a strange fighting method that was completely different from the world of cultivation.

That's... the barrier!

And this man is now the old head of the Zhuge family in the Eastern Region.

Zhuge Canglong! !

…

"The story is probably like this. As for whether it is credible, you can send people to Qiongzhou in the Mad Dragon Empire to find out. The Zhuge family is still deeply feared by the local people after tens of thousands of years."

Bai Chen shook his head repeatedly and sighed.

In fact, the story he told is true, but it is not the complete story.

As early as 30,000 years ago, the Zhuge family had already changed.

That third lady is dead.

Faced with the dire straits that the people of Qiongzhou were living in, she resolutely used her own life to awaken Zhuge Canglong's last conscience.

But Zhuge Canglong has no conscience since he was a little beggar from the beginning.

What he has is an everlasting love for the third lady that will last until death!

Because after that incident, Zhuge Canglong hugged the memorial tablet of his beloved wife and retired from the world.

His son Zhuge Jinmo succeeded him.

When Kuang returned to the Eastern Region for the last time, the Zhuge family led by Zhuge Jinmo had become a reborn, famous and upright sect, but it was still unclear whether it was truly upright.

On the surface at least, the reputation has changed.

Bai Chen didn't tell what happened next because he didn't want to give Yu Tianlu any hope or reverie.

Sure enough, after listening to Zhuge Canglong's story, Yu Tianlu's face turned extremely pale.

Even if she were such a treacherous person, she would never do that.

"You mean Zhuge Feng will be like him, crossing the river and destroying the bridge?"

Yu Tianlu raised his eyes tremblingly.

"As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. What's more, the Zhuge family has always been good at attacking people's hearts. Even if they have any ideas, they can't let you see them. Now there are two paths in front of you. Choosing Zhuge Feng is a dead end, and choosing Shen Heyun is a way to live forever. What choice are you going to make?"

Bai Chen had a cold smile on his face, which was quite similar to Luo Xi.

And his trick of attacking people's hearts was indeed too poisonous.

It directly forced Yu Tianlu to the point where she had no choice!

She was a master of alchemy and the president of the guild, and she didn't want to live under someone else's roof.

But if I surrender to Zhuge Feng, I will die. This...

Yu Tianlu raised his eyes timidly and looked at Bai Chen: "If I surrender to your Wanchao Pavilion, will you let me continue to be the president of the Alchemist Guild?"

"Of course, no problem. My Wanchao Pavilion has always focused on cultivating talents, and has never used any tyrannical means to deal with guests. The Dan Emperor Baili Nasha voluntarily joined us, otherwise, we would not have forced him."

Bai Chen talked nonsense seriously, and took advantage of Yu Tianlu's confusion to continue: "Of course, you should also know that the Pavilion Master of our Wanchao Pavilion is one of the famous Beichen Three Heroes. Dealing with the small Luocao Hall and Shenfeng Pavilion is as easy as stepping on two ants~"
