Chapter 665 – Dog under a man and dog under a dog
Anyone who was familiar with Chen Zhongxu knew that the four people at Chen Zhongxu’s side were the most important. The scholar was the woman who was referred to as the blade of the scholar, and the scholar was one of the two people at Chen Zhongxu’s side who were not even a step away from him. This woman was the other who was always by Chen Zhongxu’s side, called Huangfu Qing.
When it came to Huangfu Clan, many people from the Great Xi Empire had yet to forget that story. Over three hundred years ago, the Huangfu Family was also a famous family in the Great Xixi. However, after that, the Huangfu Family was somehow involved in an extremely strange conspiracy, causing them to decline. It waather old-fashioned story, but it could also be considered a major event for the past three hundred years of Da Xi family.
Some people solemnly swore that at that time, the Huangfu Family’s goal was not to overthrow the Holy Emperor, but to assassinate the Divine Empress and replace the later generations. However, no one could say what happened at that time.
Therefore, many people speculated that the woman named Huangfu Qing beside Chen Zhongxu was actually a descendant from the Huangfu Family. But there was no evidence. Was he guilty just because his surname was Huangfu?
As for Mr. Xie, his origins were even more mysterious. Before Da Xi, there were two big families in Jiangnan. One of them was surnamed Wang and the other was surnamed Xie. The Wang and Xie Families almost had control over the imperial power at that time. Not only was it the imperial government, it was also the martial arts world. It was said that of the top ten experts in the martial arts world, seven came from the Wang and Xie Families, four from the Wang and three from the Xie Clan.
Back then, it was still not the world of Da Xi. Spring and autumn were in chaos as the five nations competed for power. The Wang and Xie Families had ovehousand officials in the five kingdoms.
Although it seemed like the Wang Clan had one more expert ranking than the Xie Clan, they were still ranked above the Wang Clan. The Crossing River Sword of the third young master of the Xie Clan was ranked second in the world … As for the top ranker, he was from the Chen Clan.
Rumor has it that Mister Xie is currently cultivating the River Crossing Sword that has been lost for thousands of years.
There were two others who were even more mysterious than Mister Xie and Huangfu Qing. They were said to be inside and outside. Inside, I will exterminate all the spies and traitors in the sect and take care of the peace in Chen Zhongxu’s house. It was rumored that his cultivation level was even higher than Mister Xie’s. As for how strong he was, no one knew. No one even knew who he was. However, there were also people who said that this person was a monk, a monk that was unable to accomplish anything in the Western Regions.
The one outside the main body, the one everyone was familiar with the most, his name was Lu Deng. This was because many people had laughed at this name before. Lu Deng was truly a good person, to let others burn him. Those who were familiar with Lu Deng knew that if anyone dared to underestimate Lu Deng, they would not even be able to find a intact corpse under the street lights.
This time, the one looking for An Zheng in the vanguard army was none other than Lu Deng.
Lu Deng had twelve blade artists by his side, but for no reason, it was just because Lu Deng liked blades. But Lu Deng said that in this lifetime, there was no way that his attainment in blade arts could surpass another’s. Even if he added in the Twelve Blade Masters that he had personally trained himself, he would still not be able to block that man’s blade.
That person did not have a name, everyone around Chen Zhongxu called him Saber Lord.
A lot of people had seen the Saber Lord before, but no one could say who he was. However, from the way Saber Lord used the saber, some people speculated that he was a member of the Wang family. It was still that chaotic era of spring and autumn. The Xie Clan’s sword, the Wang Clan’s sword … It was also known as the ‘Underworld’.
Someone said, the reason Chen Zhongxu found sucerson to help him was actually because he was learning skills. If a person learned the Wang Family’s Saber Xie Clan’s sword, plus a monk that abandoned a disciple with a very special status from a Buddhist country in the Western Regions and the Huangfu Family’s cultivation technique, how terrifying would Chen Zhongxu be?
In any era of martial arts, there were always good things to do. Thus, in any era, there would be people ranked for martial arts. However, no matter who it was, no one dared to put the current Sacred Emperor in any other position. The number two of the number one Buddha of the Sacred Emperor, Da Xi’s side, was without a doubt. That was just to give face to the Buddhist nations in the Western Regions. The remaining eight experts of the Heavenly Rankings didn’t even have a single one of their own. And a cultivation level like the Temple General Left Swordhall could not even touch the edge of the Heavenly Rankings.
Once, An Zheng was ranked third.
Some said that Chen Zhongqi should be on the leaderboard, and some said that Chen Zhongxu should be on the leaderboard. However, at the command of the Sacred Emperor, no one dared to place the Sacred Emperor’s son on the leaderboard again. It was said that the person ranked third was the head of the Templar. There were many names, faces, and statuses, but no one knew if he was a man or a woman.
As such, the number three spot was filled with the words “Sleeping Buddha”.
Interesting, the second is the Buddha, the third is the Buddha, but it has nothing to do with the Buddhist Sect. In truth, this ranking list did not consist of ten people, but rather eleven people. The Zhang Zhenjun of the Wu Dang Mountain and the crouching Buddha was ranked third.
The war chariot sped through the sky, scattering the thick clouds.
Lu Deng closed the book in his hands and could not help but shake his head slightly, “Those people who are doing good in the martial arts world are all bastards who dare to spout nonsense without knowing how to use their own imagination. No matter how arrogant that recluse in the Sacred Hall is, he would not dare to compare himself to the Zhang Zhenjun. Even the Buddha in front would not dare not look straight at Zhang Zhenjun. ”
The middle-aged man standing next to him with a saber in his hand asked, “Where is the prince?”
Lu Deng squinted his eyes and looked at the middle aged man: You climbed up to twelfth rank last November?
The middle-aged man lowered his head and replied, “Yes.”
“Yes.”
Lu Deng nodded his head before extending his hand, “Let me see your blade.”
The 12 blades were given to Lu Deng, who took them out and 12 heads fell to the ground.
“Change it to twelve, this one doesn’t understand.” “Where’s Thirteen? Go and tell him some good news. The Twelve Emptiness Realm Experts are here.”
Lu Deng casually threw the long blade out, narrowed his eyes and leaned on the chair as he sighed: “It’s sucity, even in terms of cultivation level, it’s something, but people are too stupid. I’ve said this many times, no one is allowed to casually speculate about the affairs of the prince, this is an iron-clad rule. ”
A young man who looked as cold as a knife came in with a knife in his hand. He was wearing a black tight-fitting suit, and the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped a few degrees when he walked in. He was very young, so young that one could not find even a trace of the vicissitudes of life on his face. He was also very calm, so calm that others would ignore his youth.
“You’re Thirteen?”
Lu Deng asked.
“Your subordinate is currently twelve.”
“Interesting.”
Lu Deng liked to squint his eyes. He always said that people seemed to laugh when they squinted their eyes. And people who always seemed to be smiling were easy to get along with. In addition, they would sometimes let others relax their vigilance a little.
Lu Deng squinted his eyes and looked at Twelfth, asking, “What’s your surname?”
“Your subordinate’s surname is Lu.”
Twelve also looked at Lu Deng, replying seriously, “Lu Deng’s path.”
Lu Deng was slightly taken aback, then smiled even more comfortably: “Then what are you called?”
“Your subordinate is called Lu XII.”
Lu Deng laughed loudly: “I just found out that there’s someone as interesting as you among the people I personally train. Since when did you follow me? I don’t remember seeing you before. I have taught two disciples, one inside and the other outside.
“Your subordinate is from the outer sect and has never seen you before. I’ve only seen the blade manual that you left in the outer sect.” This subordinate has been practicing the sword manual you left behind for the past eleven years. When I first entered the outer sect, I was thirteen years old, but now I am twenty-four years old. This subordinate does not dare to call you master, because this subordinate is not qualified. ”
“It wasn’t easy for someone from the outer sect to fight their way to the thirteenth place.”
“Thank you, Mister.”
“I am not Mister Xie. Mister Xie is still by the prince’s side. “From today onwards, you can call me Master. There’s something I want to ask you, you can give yourself the name of Twelve. What if you go up again?”
“Then your subordinate shall be called Lu Eleven. Your subordinate will... Disciple hopes that in the future, I will be able to call you Lu Yi. ”
Lu Deng laughed until his head was up and down: “Alright, alright, this child is interesting. It seems that I have to take a look at outer sect people in the future, to think that there would actually be such an interesting person.”
“I can’t go to the outer sect temporarily, I’ll kill them all.”
Lu XII’s expression did not change as he replied, “If you pull your saber out of its scabbard, you can only die. Disciple has no competition, only life and death. Using a blade in a duel is disrespecting a blade. ”
Lu Deng’s expression changed slightly, and he sighed: “I really should have killed you. However, this was also good. After all, they had been killed by Lu XII, which meant that none of them had the right to enter the top twelve. Many people know that I have twelve knives with me, but few know that the twelve knives around me often change people. Whoever has the qualifications to enter, I will bring along. It doesn’t matter if they are rich or powerful, everything is fine.
“Twelve!”
“Disciple is here.”
“Don’t call me master.”
Lu Deng stood up and walked to the window of the chariot, his face looking solemn.
Lu XII’s expression changed: “But, I just became your disciple.”
“Call me father. I have to take you in as my foster son. You’re different from others.”
“Father.”
Lu Twelfth knelt down and kowtowed a few times. Each kowtow was so heavy that his forehead quickly became swollen.
“Very good.”
Lu Deng turned his head to look at Lu XII: “If you call me father, I’ll be responsible for you. In the future, anything you receive will be the same as Lu Yi. Your identity and status will be the same as Lu Yi. I give you what you want, you give me what I want. You’re my foster son, so I have to treat you like a dog. Was the dog unpleasant to talk about? I do not think I am a dog of the Prince. Twelve … Some people were destined to be dogs, but they had to choose the right owner. If he picked the wrong one, it would be a dead dog. “You’re right. In the future, there might be a number one dog in the world.”
He stood looking out the window. “Everyone has a different understanding of dogs, and they all have the same idea. In my opinion, anyone who is able to become the best dog in the world would be amazing … Do you know who the number one dog in the world is? ”
“Disciple …” “I know, it’s a Buddha.”
“Yes.”
The corner of Lu Deng’s mouth rose, “Do you believe that one day, your foster father, I, will personally chop off the head of a slumbering Buddha?”
“I do!”
Lu Deng sat down, looked out the window and said: “I am the prince’s lackey, and you are mine. What the prince will do to me, what I will do to you. Because I am using your life, just as the Prince is using my life. So if the Prince wants me to risk my life, you have to do so first. ”
“I know.”
“Yes.”
Lu Deng said: “Right now, Your Highness suspects that the guy called Ye Yurou is fake, but Dian Cang Mountain is really too far away. Since he had no way to confirm this person’s identity, His Highness was not at ease. But why do you think the Prince sent me here? ”
“Because His Highness wants to use this person.”
“So?”
“Therefore, this person must die.”
“Why?”
“Because the kennel is just that big.”
Lu XII said in a serious tone, “If there are too many dogs by your side, there will be problems.”
Pow!
Lu Deng slapped Lu XII’s face, “I said no, you can’t. I say I can be a dog, but you can’t. Remember, another time and I’ll cut off your head. There are plenty of people below who want to do 12 … “Besides, you’re not wrong.”
Lu Deng waved his hand: “You don’t need to follow me. Go and see how this Mr. Ye is.”
Lu Twelfth lowered his head: “I understand.”
