Chapter 654 Identity Exposed
Man in Black!
Cao Bao, who was still eager for revenge, swallowed the words he was about to say straight back into his stomach. He looked at Lu Xiaotian with a look of shock.
The pair of beautiful eyes of Cao Xier, who was sitting on the back of Di You Dog, were even more rippling. His thoughts seemed to have wings, thinking that he was almost kidnapped by the Silver Orchid Thief that day. However, he was easily intercepted by the man in black who appeared out of nowhere. With a few simple blows, the Yinlan thief was severely injured and driven back. There are more legends about the man in black. Surrounded by many golden elixir monks, the man in black appeared with great strength, killing the enemies one after another, and seriously injured Dou Crazy Hu, a strong man in the late golden elixir! She and her second brother Cao Bao had originally moved out of the Hou Mansion and took refuge in the central area of Wushang City. Later, they moved back to the house because of the reputation of the men in black. When we got to the back, there were occasional glimpses of Golden Core cultivators, but those who dared to reach out to the Zhenwei Hou Mansion had their claws chopped off by the men in black.
In the decades since Zhenwei Hou left the Hou Mansion, the man in black has become the anchor of the Hou Mansion. Even the servants of the Hou Mansion can straighten their backs when walking on the streets of Wushang City.
In the eyes of both Cao Bao and Cao Xi'er, the man in black should be a powerful golden elixir man with profound magic power, and should have the image of a majestic elder, standing tall and high. There is undoubtedly a huge gap with the young image of Lu Xiaotian in front of him.
"Kun, Kun Bo, this man is so young, how, how could he be the man in black who can defeat the strong man in the late stage of Jin Dan!" Cao Bao said with some difficulty.
"Second brother, don't talk nonsense." Cao Xi'er quickly interrupted Cao Bao. Although she also found it incredible, seeing how calm Lu Xiaotian was despite being surrounded by the Hou Mansion's cavalry, It was so similar to the calmness and calmness he felt when he intercepted the Yinlan thief.
Her third uncle, Cao Guang, had obviously been injured. He was fine just a moment ago and even talked to her. Looking at the situation, the fight definitely didn't last long. And according to Cao Kun's appearance, he and the young man in front of him are considered brothers, and they have been friends for decades. Uncle Kun would not say this for no reason. Could it be that this person has stayed in the Hou Mansion for decades?
Cao Xier's heart couldn't help but jump. The image of the young man in front of him actually overlapped with the figure of the man in black who appeared under the sun and moon and rescued him. Cao Xier's face couldn't help but feel a little hot for no reason.
Herod Cao Kun just exclaimed in surprise. The heavy armored cavalry around him and the spirit horse under him felt that their master was confused and shocked. They snorted uneasily and took a few steps back. Although these heavy armored cavalry were withdrawn from the front line with Cao Guang, once they returned to the Hou Mansion, they also heard rumors about the men in black. How could they be the strong ones who could fight against several Jindan monks one after another? Can it be insulted?
The surroundings were deathly silent, with only the falling snowflakes and the occasional whistling of the wind.
“So what if it is? So what if it’s not?” Lu Xiaotian was noncommittal, neither admitting nor denying.
"Brother Lu, you really hid it from me. I should have thought of it earlier." Cao Kun had a wry smile on his face. Although Lu Xiaotian did not admit it, in Cao Kun's view, it was already acquiescence. .
"Xi'er thanks Senior for his life-saving grace and for saving the Marquis Mansion from danger several times." Cao Xi'er responded quickly and jumped off Di Yougu's back, clasping his hands on his forehead. He bent down and gave Lu Xiaotian a heavy salute, with a slight blush on his face, and blinked his eyes, looking at Lu Xiaotian who was nearby.
Cao Guang was injured at this time, and his face looked extremely embarrassed.
Lu Xiaotian turned his body slightly to one side and did not accept Cao Xier's gift. Instead, his eyes passed over the crowd and drifted to a place farther away. Wondering if it's time to leave.
A bloated and fat man, dressed in smoky blue clothes, showing flexibility and speed inconsistent with his body, shot towards this direction. "Haha, I was wondering why I saw magpies chirping when I returned home today. It turned out to be a distinguished guest. This brother Lu has guarded my mansion for decades since I left. I would like to thank Brother Lu in advance. . ”
The person who came was none other than Zhenwei Hou Cao Sheng. Compared with Cao Guang, Cao Sheng’s blood-stained body was also quite strong, but it was restrained even deeper, obviously because of it. The reason is that his cultivation level is far superior to Cao Guang's.
Lu Xiaotian's heart was open. When Cao Sheng came, he didn't know who he was. It was probably Cao Kun who sent him a message. He didn't speak out until he was about to arrive. Cao Sheng's voice was so loud that the snow on the nearby trees continued to fall.
"The name of Marquis Zhenwei has always been heard in my ears. Lu has admired him for a long time and has never had the opportunity to meet him. It seems that the Marquis is more majestic than the rumors." Lu Xiaotian bowed his hand to Marquis Zhenwei.
“You guys, why don’t you retreat quickly? You really think that the strength of the people is enough. Brother Lu just held back, otherwise with your meager strength, you would have been killed long ago. "Cao Sheng flicked his sleeves, and those heavy-armored cavalry retreated into the distance like an ebbing tide. Their movements were uniform. To be able to do this was not only through rigorous training, but also in a large number of actual battles with Cao Sheng. Through experience.
"The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Lao San, are you okay?" Cao Sheng glanced at Cao Guang, who still had blood on the corner of his mouth and said, "Why don't you go back to heal first?"
"It's okay, I can still hold on even with some injuries. Brother Lu just showed mercy, otherwise I might not have saved my life." Cao Guang smiled bitterly and stepped aside.
"You beast, you are short-sighted. If you offend Senior Lu, your third uncle will be injured. Sooner or later, the Cao family will suffer a big loss at the hands of a scoundrel like you. Kowtow to Senior Lu to apologize, and go back to my confinement. If you don't survive the calamity, You are not allowed to leave the seclusion during this time!" Seeing that Cao Guang was fine, Cao Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then scolded Cao Bao with a stern expression.
"Senior Lu, this junior has been offended many times before. I hope that Senior Lu will be more generous and ignore the past grudges." Cao Baowei said with a look of defeat on his face, not daring to show any abnormal emotions to Lu Xiaotian. But when he lowered his head, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
"For some trivial matters, the Marquis does not need to be too harsh on the juniors." Marquis Zhenwei was polite, but Lu Xiaotian naturally couldn't push his nose in the face. How could he really be kneeled down by Cao Bao? He reached out and stretched out a soft force to support Cao Bao's body. Cao Bao didn't really want to kneel down. He struggled for a few times and then looked at his father.
"Cao has been away at war all year round and neglected to discipline his children, which made Brother Lu laugh. If Brother Lu didn't dislike it, he followed Cao back to the Hou Mansion. It would be fine if he didn't know before. Now that he knows After knowing the identity of Brother Lu, I naturally have to thank Brother Lu properly." Cao Sheng said with sincerity.
"Yes, Dad, Senior Lu has done a lot for our Hou Mansion over the years. It is only thanks to Senior Lu that my daughter was spared." Cao Xier said quickly. "Senior Lu, please go back to your home with my father. My father will definitely treat you as the most distinguished guest."
