On one hand, Lu Chen"s sect wanted to win over some of the Celestial Sect"s influence.On the other hand, he also wanted to test out everyone"s reactions. He wanted to see if there was anything else he could do.
Lu Chen was not aware of the various thoughts coming from these families. He noticed that people from the Mu Rong family were coming closer, so he only nodded at them as a form of greeting.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen handed two pieces of safety earthen, only to discover that the latter didn"t seem to be moved at all.
Duanmu Fu still had a grim expression, as if he was hesitating about something.Lu Chen couldn"t help but frown, a trace of doubt hanging on his face.
It wasn"t because of the jade token?What could cause this expert from the Duanmu family to reveal such an expression?
"Mr. Lu … This old one does have something that I need your help with. "
Duanmu w.a.n.g looked up at Lu Chen and said with a heavy expression.
Lu Chen extended his right hand and made a gesture: "Senior, just say it! Junior will definitely do his best. "
Seeing that Duanmu Fu still had some hesitation, Lu Chen expressed his att.i.tude once again.Now that the Power of Merit was exhausted, Lu Chen wanted to obtain more power of Merit as soon as possible.
On the other hand, the majority of the people from the Duanmu family had evil intents wrapped around their bodies. If they could expel the evil intents from their bodies, then the profits would be considerable.Moreover, Lu Chen had offended the Sima Family and the Situ Family in succession. He needed to establish a good relationship with the other families so that he could have a certain amount of strength to rely on.
It was hard to say what other people would do, but the people from the Duanmu Clan were all pestered by the vicious aura. If something happened, they would definitely think of ways to protect him.
Therefore, Lu Chen believed that regardless of what was said, helping the Duanmu Family was a must.
Also, looking at the situation in front of him, what Duanmu Fu was asking for must be very troublesome, and even more so what Lu Chen was hoping for.
This was because the more troublesome the matter, the more they would be able to firmly bind Lu Chen to the Duanmu Family, and the more they would be able to obtain the maximum amount of karmic power in return.
Looking at Lu Chen"s att.i.tude, Duanmu w.a.n.g nodded his head and said in a serious tone, "It"s because my family"s Patriarch wants to ask for Mister Lu"s help with the matter."Lu Chen raised his brows slightly. As expected, he wasn"t simple.
However, since he was the Patriarch of the Duanmu family, that would be for the best.
Perhaps the other elders of the Duanmu family were not bad, but when compared to the symbolic Patriarch, they were still lacking.
Lu Chen calmly said, "Senior, please tell me the details."
Duanmu w.a.n.g nodded, then continued, "Patriarch has caused some trouble all these years. I don"t know what kind of trouble he has provoked. This evil possession will last for three years. ""Putting aside the suffering and suffering involved, who knows how many other methods were used to ease the pain, causing my main cultivation to stagnate. "These two days are getting more and more serious. I can"t even look at them properly anymore …"
As Duanmu Fu said this, his eyes also gradually became moist.
Following that, he sighed and continued, "The Duanmu family is one of the nine great families. Their strength and foundation is also of great importance in the Celestial Sect of Wonders."
"But since the Patriarch was possessed by this evil spirit, his strength has gradually decreased. The reason why the Sima family was able to endure this pain for the past two years is because of the great effort they put in. ""Of course it"s because of this. The Sima family has put forth all sorts of conditions, so the Duanmu family has lost a lot of benefits."
"However, because of what happened today, the Sima family will definitely be angry from embarra.s.sment. They will stop the treatment for the family head and force us to make a decision."
"In fact, this is more or less the reason why you saw so many people from the nine great families being shushed in front of them today."
"Even though everyone is guessing that it was the Sima family that wanted to catch the thief, since they don"t have any evidence and everyone"s lives are in their hands, we have no choice but to swallow our anger.""However, as long as Mr Lu is willing to help, once the Patriarch escapes from the threat and even regains his strength, the Duanmu Family will definitely follow Mr Lu"s lead!"
When Duanmu w.a.n.g asked for help from Lu Chen, his words clearly indicated that they were cooperating to resist the Sima Family.
Duanmu immediately understood Lu Chen"s current situation.
Regardless of whether his sect was real or fake, or how deep his foundation was, even if there was, he might not be able to save himself at the critical moment.If not, then Duanmu w.a.n.g also wanted to show that the Duanmu Family had the ability to protect Lu Chen.
Even if it was just one more layer of protection, it would only benefit and not hurt.
"The heart of a doctor"s parents! "It is a great honor to be able to help the Patriarch of the Duanmu Clan."
"To expel evil from one"s body, Junior has only touched it slightly. I dare not say that I am too confident, I can only try and see!""Senior should not place too much hope on his heart, but Lu Chen will definitely do his best."
Lu Chen didn"t dare to say too much, but it wasn"t because he didn"t have confidence in himself.
This was also because Lu Chen did not have much confidence in being able to force the Patriarch of the Duanmu Family to the point of not being able to get rid of him.Most importantly, the power of karmic virtue in his body was almost exhausted. Fortunately, a lot of it slowly emerged from the spring of the Pool of Contributions, which allowed him to maintain his imposing manner.
Otherwise, Lu Chen probably wouldn"t be able to last that long."As long as Mr Lu can help, that is enough. "This old one …"
Joy surfaced on Duanmu"s face. Not only that, he felt that Lu Chen had quite a bit of hope.
But before Duanmu Fu could finish his sentence, Lu Chen interrupted him."But... This junior still has a few matters on hand that need to be taken care of immediately. "
"Moreover, I presume that the problem with Clan Head Duanmu is not to be underestimated. Junior must make some necessary preparations.""Senior, there"s no harm in leaving behind an address. After everything is prepared, junior will quickly rush over on horseback."
Lu Chen hesitated for a moment before finally speaking with sincerity.There were some things he couldn"t put his finger on, but he couldn"t explain why either.
Moreover, he would never tell anyone about the Eye of Merit.
It was just that Lu Chen needed to gather some merit and power, or else he wouldn"t be able to accomplish anything.
"Mister Lu has urgent matters to attend to, so feel free to finish your work first. This old man will wait patiently for your beautiful voice!"
Although Duanmu Fu was eager for Lu Chen to immediately return with him, Lu Chen had a very good reason for doing so, so he naturally could not say anything.
Moreover, he could faintly guess in his heart that after tonight"s events, Lu Chen would most likely go to his own sect to call for reinforcements.
Duanmu Huanghun was even looking forward to seeing what kind of expert Lu Chen would send to a.s.sist him if he asked for help from his sect.
