Chapter 2274: Attacking the Heart
"In fact, our leader is very strong now. Even I can't estimate how strong his real fighting power is. For the moment, we are not afraid of a force like Wanjianmen. But to avoid unnecessary trouble, we should deal with it appropriately."
Hearing Han Ling's words, Xia Daotian and Yang Qiuyu looked at him at the same time.
"Yang Qiuyu, you arrange to send two invitations to the Liu family and the Yin family respectively."
"Old Xia, you go and prepare for the 100,000 birthday."
Han Ling gave orders one by one.
"What? I celebrate my 100,000 birthday?!"
Xia Daotian was stunned.
"Yes, it's you."
Han Ling smiled calmly.
...
In the evening, Liu Rufeng came out of Honghu Academy as usual, got on the carriage, and went back home.
However, as soon as he entered the gate of the mansion, he saw his father wandering in the yard, looking worried.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Rufeng raised his eyebrows and walked to the front of the hall.
"Rufeng, you are finally back." Seeing his son coming back, Liu Xiangshan said excitedly: "The Bai Mansion sent an invitation!"
"Invitation?"
Liu Rufeng heard it and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is it Mr. Jiang who came out of retreat?"
"Well... the invitation didn't say that. It just said that the Bai Mansion's alchemy master is celebrating his 100,000th birthday... and then sent an invitation to my Liu family."
Hearing this, Liu Rufeng was overjoyed: "Dad, this is good news! Before, I was worried that they would have a grudge because of Zuihualou. Now it seems that I was worrying too much."
"That being said, but..."
"Hmm?"
Liu Xiangshan looked at Liu Rufeng with a complicated expression: "They only sent invitations to my Liu family, and even other well-known families in Xuanzhou, but they didn't send one to Wanjianmen."
"Did Shenfeng Pavilion send it?"
Liu Rufeng asked again.
Hearing this, Liu Xiangshan shook his head: "The spies reported that the Shenfeng Pavilion had not received an invitation either."
"That's it, Shenfeng Pavilion, Wanjianmen and Luocaotang are such powerful forces. Even if the Bai family is rich and powerful, they can't rashly send invitations to those three forces without any friendship."
"That's the problem! As the overlord of Xuanzhou, Shenfeng Pavilion dare not send invitations, but they sent them to Luocaotang and Yin's family. On our side, he sent invitations to our Liu family, but ignored Wanjianmen."
"What!"
Hearing this, Liu Rufeng frowned deeply: "Since the Bai family came to Xuanzhou, they have always been cautious and watertight. They can't be unaware of our backers with the Yin family. They only invited Luocaotang, but not Wanjianmen. Did they show that they want to stand on the side of Luocaotang?"
"That's what I mean! Now my eldest brother is worried about this matter. What he means is that if the Bai family doesn't invite Wanjianmen, we can't go either."
To put it bluntly, if the master doesn't go, the dog can't go either.
"This is the only solution for now. But I really don't understand why the Bai family has always remained neutral and suddenly stood on the side of Luocaotang this time! At least the eldest lady of Wanjianmen is still Mr. Jiang's student. Luocaotang has no friendship with them at all. They should be friendly with Wanjianmen!"
"Alas, who knows what the head of the Bai family thinks. However, what they are doing now is to completely forge a feud with Wanjianmen. If they become mortal enemies in the future, you must remember to stay away from Mr. Jiang in Honghu Academy. Our Liu family will also regard the Bai family as an enemy!"
"But Dad, I always feel that something is wrong with this matter..."
"Don't say but! Right or wrong, we only have one way to go now, that is to completely draw a line with the Bai family!"
Liu Xiangshan was already scared. He was afraid that Wanjianmen would mistakenly think that his son had a close relationship with Mr. Jiang.
Only by making clear distinctions can you protect yourself.
But he would never think of how stupid his thoughts were.
…
"Grandpa, did you see that? The Bai family has finally made their intentions known to the world this time!"
In a side hall of the Yin family, Yin Qingyan hugged Grandpa's neck, already smiling with joy.
However, Old Master Yin frowned deeply, full of doubts: "Isn't Nan Yue'er of Wanjianmen very close to Mr. Jiang? Why did it suddenly become like this?"
"Who knows~ Maybe it's because we are more powerful than Luocaotang!"
"You can say this outside, but now there is no one around. You should know that the head of Luocaotang, Uncle San, is indeed very capable, but after all, he has not entered the realm of Zhoushen, how can he compare with Nan Feihong? If it weren't for the Shenfeng Pavilion's weighing the Xuanzhou Jianghu for these years, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out by them long ago. The Bai family left the Wanjianmen, which is closer to them, and instead stood on the side. Luocaotang, do you think they are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? "
"Oh, Grandpa, why are you always suspicious? No matter they are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, now that the invitations have been sent out, there will be no room for maneuver. And don't forget, in the academy, my relationship with Mr. Jiang is much better than that of Liu Rufeng. I even sent Mr. Jiang home. Maybe it's because my granddaughter is naturally beautiful and moved Mr. Jiang with her sincerity. "
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. My granddaughter has really grown up now. I am a teacher in the academy. Are you still doubting me?"
"Oh! You can grow up~"
Mr. Yin sighed helplessly: "Forget it, since the situation is already in our favor, let's make this good thing happen. Remember to send someone to Bai Mansion early tomorrow to inform them of the rules of Luocao Hall. Don't let them neglect it. A distinguished guest of Luo Caotang.”
"Yes, granddaughter, please remember~"
Yin Qingyan's eyebrows curled up in a smile, and she was already overjoyed at this good news.
But she didn't know that this was just a chess game arranged by Han Junshi of Chenyao Sword Sect.
When Han Ling was still the master of Feihong Palace, he teamed up with Bai Chen and used their weak strength to control the two major forces of Tianwu and Tianxu.
How could the small Yin family understand his strategy?
…
There are still three days left before Xia Daotian's so-called "100,000th Birthday", but the fact that the Bai Mansion only invited Luocaotang and not Wanjianmen has spread throughout Xuanzhou.
Although the Kamikaze Pavilion is home to four powerful men of the Universe God Realm who look down upon them, they are also concerned about Bai Mansion's actions.
After all, Mr. Jiang's "funny strike from the sky" had forced the master of the pavilion to personally resist it.
…
The Luo Caotang side appreciates the Bai family's "self-knowledge" very much.
Looking back at the Wanjian Sect, the sect leader Nan Feihong was furious in the main hall at the moment.
"I never said you were not allowed to act rashly, but you, you actually went to provoke the Bai family!"
Nan Feihong was about to explode with rage.
There was panic in the hall, but Shangguan Sheng remained calm: "Sir, this matter is all our own idea. In fact, if you think about it carefully, the Bai family is nothing at all. A person in the Eternal Sky Realm with a not-so-high cultivation level. In the chaotic realm, it is easy to move them! On the contrary, if they continue to run around with the young lady, it is very likely that the young lady will be put in danger in the future!"
