Chapter 74: Yunlong Temple Conference (Part 2)
In the Temple of Cloud Dragon.
It's finally out in the open, it turns out that's what happened. Lu Yuan, this junior, actually had the audacity to provoke Sima Changbai on his own initiative. Dugu Ye clapped her hands and laughed, ridiculing Sima Changbai, she wouldn't give him any face.
Simar's face sank like water: "Indeed, it is the case. However, this junior, Lu Yuan, has also violated the school rules. The first rule of Huashan School is to deceive one's master and ancestors, disrespecting one's elders. Sima Sword Pavilion is my property, and Lu Yuan knows that too. How dare he go and kick down the pavilion? This is disrespecting one's elders. The third rule is not to engage in internal strife and harm fellow disciples. My Sima Sword Pavilion is a property under Huashan North Peak, yet it was set on fire by him and burned to ashes. This child disrespects his elders and engages in internal strife. Even if he were sent to the Reflecting Cliff, it would not be excessive."
"This...". Yuan looked at Lu Yuan: "How do you explain."
A square is just a square.
House rules are house rules.
This time, Sima Changbai intended to use the rules to kill Lu Yuan. Even if he couldn't kill Lu Yuan, he wanted to make him lose a layer of skin. Sima Changbai was a mastermind, skilled in both open and covert assassinations, and could also use the rules to kill people.
Although Yuan Shang was also eager to see Lu Yu challenge the Sword Pavilion under Sima Changbai, to be honest, Yuan Shang also had to follow this rule. As the master of Beifeng, even if he couldn't handle it completely impartially, at least on the surface, he had to appear impartial. If Lu Yu didn't give an explanation, he would have to punish him, but Yuan Shang would also intentionally give a light punishment.
His eyes turned to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan smiled: "What I said to Sima Shi, the two points of disrespecting elders and fighting with fellow students, are absolutely unacceptable, nor do I dare to admit them."
"Oh." Yuanyuan nodded and waited for Luyuan to continue explaining.
"At that time, before I kicked the hall, I heard Sima Changfeng, the younger brother of my uncle Sima Shi, say a sentence. He said, 'Today, we open our hall, and it's said that several other sword halls want to come and challenge us. Haha, let them come, as long as they dare to come, our Sima Sword Hall will take them on.' At the time, I was eager for battle, and after hearing this sentence, I also wanted to test my skills against Uncle Sima Shi's subordinates. That's why I kicked the hall. It was entirely because of Sima Changfeng's words that I dared to kick the hall. How can it be said that I'm disrespecting Uncle Sima Shi or engaging in internal strife? I have always admired and respected Uncle Sima Shi."
Ye Fang and Ye Yuan were both on the verge of laughing themselves to tears.
The others present, who had a slight understanding of Lu Yuan's abilities, were almost internally injured at this time.
The urge to fight is about to erupt!
What a joke, with Lu Yuan's lazy personality, where is it possible for him to have a strong desire to fight, only laziness can make him ill.
This sentence is too fake, it can't be any faker.
However, Lu Yuan said it with a straight face.
Of course, Lu Yuan's words revealed a piece of information that he had grasped Sima Changfeng's weakness and struck him down with one blow. Everyone's eyes turned to Sima Changfeng, who was also present, but his own strength was mediocre, and he usually relied on Sima Changbai's prestige to show off outside. In a place like the Cloud Dragon Temple, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly, so naturally, he wasn't noticeable at all.
At this time, all eyes were on Sima Changfeng. Sima Changfeng tensed up and suddenly remembered that he had indeed said something like that at the time. He also wanted to deny it, but there were not only people from his side and Lu Yuan present at the time, but also Ye Fang and Ye Yuan, two true disciples of the Ye family.
The weight of being a true disciple is not light.
"It seems I've said it before." Sima Changfeng was tense for a long time before he finally spoke these words.
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone knew that the nature of this matter had been determined, and even if there were changes later, they would not be too great. Others mostly looked at Sima Changbai, what a pity Sima Changbai was slapped in the face by Lu Yuanshao this time, and now he still has to eat dumb losses, poor guy.
Simachangbai now just wants to cut his cousin into pieces alive.
Lu Yuan shrugged: "The next thing is simple, I went to kick the hall, and then came out six people including Sima Bo. I even asked these six people if they wanted to fight, but they didn't make a move, so I didn't either. This was completely due to the friendly spirit within the school, it's just like sparring with fellow disciples."
"Next, the four people of qin qi shu hua appeared. As soon as they appeared, Jin Qiyuan wanted to challenge me. I thought to myself that this was just a simple spar between Jin Qiyuan and me, purely an internal affair within our school, with everyone being very harmonious. Although in the end we couldn't hold back and things got a bit intense, and I'm somewhat sorry about that, but basically, this time's challenge was still carried out in the spirit of harmony and friendship within our school."
Lu Yuan's expression at this time was serious to the point of being unable to be more serious.
At this time, Ye Fang and Ye Yuan were laughing so hard they almost got internal injuries, of course, only in their hearts, on the surface both of them had a serious expression, this was thanks to Ye Fang's master being Junzi Sword Fang Ru, people who followed Fang Ru had to learn how to put on a serious face, it was really too easy.
At that time, Lu Yuan took the initiative to kick the hall, and Sima Bo and six others came out, but they were scared by him and didn't dare to take action. At that time, Lu Yuan saw that Sima Bo and others did not dare to take action, and he even provoked them with words. If Sima Bo and others really took action, the result would be quite miserable. Fortunately, Sima Bo endured it.
As for the four people who were good at qin, qi, shu and hua, they were also considered to be famous scattered cultivators, but in the end, their meridians were severed, which was even more tragic.
At that time, Lu Yuan was invincible and defeated Sima Jingyuan miserably.
As a result, in his mouth, it became that he was just normally cutting, friendly and harmonious friendship, this person can't be so shameless, Ye Fang and Ye Yuan suddenly felt that their own shamelessness was far inferior to Liu Shixiong, and they still needed to learn more.
However, Sima Bo and the other six people knew that the truth was not as Lu Yuan had said. But somehow, what Lu Yuan said basically matched the facts, it's just that when he said it, things seemed to have changed in tone.
Lu Yuan sighed and said, "As for the last fire I set, oh, it's like this, I've always heard that after kicking the hall, one must destroy it thoroughly. I was just following the usual practice of kicking the hall, so I set a fire, absolutely not with any intention to target Sima Shi. It's just that when kicking the hall, one has to follow the trend, and in my heart, I have always admired you, Sima Shi."
If it was just Ye Fang and Ye Yuan who were enduring a great deal of hardship earlier, now among the nine generations of sword immortals, except for Sima Changbai with a face as calm as water, all the other nine generations of sword immortals are also enduring a great deal of hardship.
This kid is really cunning.
Yuanyuan looked at Sima Changbai after Lu Yuan finished speaking: "Sima Shidi, none of your subordinates refuted him, it seems that this is indeed the case. In such a situation, it's not entirely Lu Shizhong's fault, but he still has some guilt, especially for setting fire in the end. However, it was just childish mischief. How about this: punish Lu Yuan by withholding his spiritual stone allowance for one year? What do you think?" This punishment is essentially equivalent to no punishment at all.
Simachen was now furious in his heart, but unfortunately, the reason was originally on his side, however, his subordinates were too useless, and with Lu Yuan being too cunning, the reason had turned to be in his hands.
In Xiamen, everything is done according to reason.
Reason, rules.
These are the rules of Xianmen's game.
This time, obviously, Lu Yuan had a thorough understanding of the rules of the Xianmen's Dao Li game.
It's precisely because of this that it's difficult to take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble for Lu Yuan.
——————
Finally, the temporary meeting at Yunlong Hall came to an end.
However, at this time, other people's evaluation of Lu Yuan also changed a bit, and these nine generations of sword immortals also understood more about Lu Yuan's temperament.
Normally, he is laid-back and has extremely high talent, but it hasn't been brought out yet. However, once he encounters something that provokes him, he becomes very serious and completely obsessed with it. This obsessive state is quite terrifying, and the improvement under this state is incredibly fast.
Moreover, it's not just that, but also extremely daring and reckless. Originally, if one didn't have the guts to be daring and reckless, they wouldn't have taken the initiative to provoke Sima Changbai, taking the initiative to provoke a master like Sima Changbai is quite difficult.
In addition, he was cunning and provoked Sima Changbai, but had long been prepared with a trick, making himself escape cleanly.
Lazy, with extremely high talent, once serious, unstoppable, daring and cunning.
This is Lu Yuan.
Huashan North Peak, sixth generation disciple of Zhenyuan.
I wrote this chapter with great pleasure, I wonder how you readers feel about it?
