Ancestor Above

Of course Li Chengzong also knew about this.

In his crown prince's east palace, he lost his temper and dropped the cup on a rare occasion.

very angry.

Over the years, his life has had its ups and downs.

In the Battle of Beihuang Forest, he 'proved' to the entire Yan Kingdom court that he was capable of fighting, no worse than his nephew.

He was no longer the naive young man when he was just established as the prince. He still didn't understand why Li Xuanhao was so loved by his father and became his biggest competitor a generation later.

Then, in the struggle between the two, Li Xuanhao showed a very strong commanding ability in many battles, and he also advanced to become a golden core monk early. Although Li Chengzong is sometimes more loved by officials in charge of government affairs in the court, but... this is an era when strength is respected. Li Xuanhao is stronger in cultivation, better in talent, and has performed well in many wars , then it should be more optimistic about it.

In the Battle of Beihuang Forest, Li Chengzong regained a little fame, but to put it bluntly, he suffered a lot.

His crown prince Shaofu Wang Gan, as his very important supporter in the sect, died in Beihuang Forest, which was also a great blow to him. In the past ten years, a large part of his energy has been devoted to repairing his relationship with the sect.

There are still some results, he found a Jindan elder in the sect as a supporter again. But... the newly found 'thighs' are not as close as Wang Gan. In this regard, he is actually weakened.

I thought that the biggest gain from the Battle of Beihuang Forest was the relationship with the Lu family. He has seen Lu Qing's strength with his own eyes, and he believes that the ancestor of the Lu family will definitely be able to enter the Nascent Soul stage in the future. He felt that in a few years, the Lu family and the Qingfeng sect would become a thick thigh second only to Yunxiao sect in Yan country. Therefore, during these years, he also tried his best to make friends with the Lu family, and at the same time, he deliberately put this kind of friendship on the bright side.

Not only did he hope that the Lu family really supported him, but he also hoped that everyone in the entire Yan Kingdom would know that the Lu family, which had recently become famous, supported him.

This time, he didn't know who was responsible for the attack on the Lu family, but he realized that this seemed to be a very good opportunity. He could formally invite the Lu family to enter the court of Yan State and enter the power The core, within the court, becomes one's true supporter.

After all kinds of struggles, he was finally able to confirm those official positions for the Lu family, not only the local ones in Feiyun Prefecture, but also some official positions in the central government.

The Lu family refused, he was a little disappointed, but that's it, he can only say that he still needs to work hard.

But after the Lu family rejected him, they sent people into the capital instead, which really annoyed him.

The most important thing is fear - if the Lu family no longer supports him, then the biggest capital he obtained in the Battle of Beihuang Forest will also disappear.

Hearing the sound of throwing cups, a servant of the Eastern Palace came in.

His Royal Highness?

... Li Chengzong panted heavily, but did not speak.

His Royal Highness is angry because of the Lu family's affairs?

This man is quite smart.

If that's the case, why not us...

Before he finished speaking, Li Chengzong looked at him coldly: What do you want to do?

The officer froze for a moment.

Li Chengzong's voice continued to sound: Anyway, he came, and he didn't show any intention of standing too close to Li Xuanhao. What do you want to do? Help me push the Lu family to Li Xuanhao's side?

I have absolutely no such intention. The subordinate official

I also know that you don't mean that, I just thought about it for a while. Li Chengzong's tone also softened, and he returned to his calm attitude in the past: It's just that I'm worried that it's not just your thoughts... Let me pass on what I mean, and don't make any extravagances. Also, help me invite those people from the Lu family, I want to meet them.

...

this side,

I still saw it, but Lu Wenen and the others did not enter the East Palace, but outside.

After entering the East Palace, some things are unclear.

And they didn't just meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they also met the people sent by the Crown Prince Li Xuanhao.

Even, even the words are almost the same. It is nothing more than that the two of them, as representatives of the royal family, thanked the Lu family for their contribution in the Battle of Beihuang Forest, and highly praised the Lu family for cultivating many powerful and outstanding monks for the country of Yan. Welcome the Lu family to enter the court and make greater contributions to the country.

As for Lu Wenen, he also thanked the two representatives of the royal family and the imperial court for their affirmation in their dual identities of the Lu family and the Qingfeng sect.

They were all clichés, but as soon as something substantive was mentioned, Lu Wenen would immediately say that the group of them had to prepare for next year's big exam, and they had to work hard. Many things might have been unintentionally involved.

All in all, this attitude actually clearly shows that our Lu family is not a supporter of any faction; but there is also room for both parties to have friendly contacts. If there is any change in the future, then the Lu family will also Don't mind changing your inclinations.

As for the selection of officials later...

The current head of the Nine Ministers, Taichangqing Mo Ruhai, is a member of the Mo family of the four major families, and the Mo family is also a clear-cut supporter of the prince Li Chengzong. Similarly, the Civil Affairs Bureau itself is a subordinate institution of the Taichang Mansion.

The Lu family, as well as the group of monks from Qingfengmen who came this time, are all of a very good level, so there is nothing to worry about the results of the final exam. As for the selection of officials... we'll see when the time comes.

Anyway, the Lu family is in no hurry.

...

On Yuyan Mountain, Lu Qing didn't think about Yandu any more.

He has more important things to focus on right now.

According to the system's judgment, the family rank of the Lu family has been raised to five stars.

[The five-star family has been upgraded]

[Family level raised to five stars]

[The flying speed of the user's consciousness body is doubled. The karma required for a single replenishment of in vitro time is increased to 20 points]

[The fusion of the user's physical body and consciousness has deepened, and he has obtained further authority to control the physical body. Now you can move around in the family territory. And when the conscious body returns to the physical body, the maximum strength that can be exerted is raised to the peak of the golden core period. 】

[The exchange mall will make it easier to swipe out high-star exchange items. 】

[The karma consumed by refreshing the mall has increased to 50 points. The karma required to refresh the battle mode is 500 points]

...

Finally, five stars!

For example, the increase in flight speed, the increase in the karma required to replenish the time out of the body, and the increase in the karma consumption for refreshing the mall, these things are relatively routine and expected.

And what surprised Lu Qing the most was the increase in authority to control the physical body.

Just as Lu Qing had expected before, the rising star of his family would indeed allow him to display his Golden Core Stage strength without the need for a resurrection exchange item. And more importantly, he can move freely in the entire family territory.

He immediately returned to his physical body.

The true energy surged, and the strength of the golden core circulated in his physical body.

It's been a long time.

Now Lu Qing's own strength is already at the peak of Jindan—although it is not far from breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

But there is no doubt that now he can perfectly display his full strength.

He moved cautiously, and took a step outside the closed room.

There is no problem.

When the breeze blew, Lu Qing was about to burst into tears.

Although, since he woke up more than fifty years ago, he has gone out twice through the resurrection exchange item. However, under the effect of the resurrection exchange item, the time he can be resurrected is limited, but only three hours, not to mention, every time he has important things to do, he has to race against time to use that time , where do you want to experience the breeze and sunshine?

But it's different now, he can really go out as he pleases.

Lu Qing restrained the excited expression on his face - it's not good to be seen by the tribe, it will damage the majesty of the ancestor!

The back mountain of Yuyan Mountain has always been guarded by the descendants of the family. But to be honest, up to now, people don't regard the matter of guarding the back mountain as a task-the ancestor has already gone out of the mountain twice, and each time he did a huge thing, which proves that the ancestor Lu It has returned to normal and is no longer seriously injured.

Although the ancestor always stays in the retreat room, and has never seen him come out of the back mountain or the retreat room, everyone basically thinks that the ancestor is obsessed with cultivation, he is more housebound, and doesn't like to go out.

As for the matter of guarding the gate... an ancestor at the peak of the golden core, how could he need a group of Qi training monks to guard the gate?

In fact, the current Lu family basically regards the task of guarding the back mountain as a kind of honor. Whenever a younger generation of a certain family will receive some kind of reward next, or even have the opportunity to take the Foundation Establishment Pill, he will be asked to come to the back mountain to guard the door for two years.

For the younger generations of the Lu family, this has gradually become a kind of honor.

Congratulations, my cousin is going to guard the gate in the back mountain this year, right?

Oh, I don't know when I can go to the back mountain to guard the gate...

Words like this can often be heard in the chats among the Lu family members.

The gatekeeper itself doesn't need to do anything, just practice with peace of mind and it's over. Coupled with the long-awaited rewards that can be obtained immediately, no one will say anything.

Speaking of which, the gatekeepers are two descendants of the Lu family. One is okay, after the gatekeeping is over, they just get some relatively regular resource rewards, which can assist in cultivation, while the other one is basically confirmed, and after the gatekeeping, they will get a Foundation Establishment Pill.

At this time, the two of them were also sitting cross-legged facing each other, practicing meditation.

Suddenly, the two opened their eyes at the same time, and glanced in the direction of the back mountain. They saw a man with eyes like bright stars striding towards him.

Both of them froze for a moment.

The number of times the ancestor went out of the mountain was very small, and he entered the retreat room of the ancestor. The status and qualifications of the two of them in the family were not high enough, so the two of them really never saw what their ancestor looked like with their own eyes.

But I haven't seen the real person with my own eyes, so there are still portraits.

After being stunned for a moment, they recognized immediately that this was their ancestor.

The two quickly stood up and bowed deeply.

It's nothing, you two continue to guard. Lu Qing also knows that the Lu family has evolved into a traditional gatekeeper. It's not true that Tianmao is in the retreat room and doesn't know what's going on outside the door.

The two gatekeepers suppressed the excitement in their hearts, but they couldn't bear to move away from their adoring eyes and the back of his follower Lu Qing, until Lu Qing's figure disappeared from their sight.

The ancestor has come out of the mountain! One person said excitedly.

I don't know if it's something important? The other person was excited, but his expression was a little sad, Our ancestor of the Lu family has always been low-key and doesn't like to show off. He can be regarded as the number one in the cultivation world of Feiyun Prefecture People, but they practice in the closed room almost all the time. Only the two times when they went out of the mountain, there were major incidents happened, and the ancestors took action at the critical moment to solve it... Could it be that the ancestors came out of the mountain this time because of some major incidents? ?

Hearing this, the other person also expressed a little worry.

...

Lu Qing was on Yuyan Mountain, and he was surrounded by people wherever he went.

Things like what the gatekeepers would worry about before actually represent the thoughts of many people who usually think too much.

Even Lu Chaoxi and Lu Mingchao were alarmed.

In their impression, Father never leaves the retreat room unless there is an important event. This actually doesn't match the impression they had of their father when they were young, but after all, this is how Lu Qing behaved in these years.

It's no wonder they got nervous when their father came out this time.

However, there really hasn't been much happening recently. Lu Qing also realized how much misunderstanding his actions would cause. He coughed lightly, comforted his son and daughter, and explained that he just came out on a whim today, and it was nothing serious. What should they do? Well go.

Originally, Lu Qing wanted to go to the border of Yuyan Mountain, to test the scope of the system's 'can move within the family territory', but it didn't seem appropriate.

So, he spent a few days on Jade Mist Mountain, meeting with members of many families.

These are all my descendants.

In the past few days, everyone has seen Lu Qing a lot, and gradually they don't have such a big reaction.

And at this time, Lu Qing could finally start his own attempt.

He really wanted to take a good look at how this so-called 'family territory' was calculated.

Is it limited to Yuyan Mountain? Or Pingyao County?

Or, the Anling County that can be semi-directly controlled by the various forces vassalized by the Lu family also counts?

Or by exerting the influence of the sect, the entire Feiyun State that should be able to be radiated counts?

Wouldn't it be great if the entire Feiyun State was counted?

chapter 4k

In addition, there has been a lot of turmoil recently. First of all, I would like to thank many book friends for their concern. For those who have not been on QQ for ten thousand years, many people chatted with me privately today, which surprised me.

This book will definitely be finished with peace of mind, and if there are no accidents in the next book, it will still be at the starting point.

I feel that many things have been over-interpreted, please rest assured~
