Volume 4: A New Era Chapter 586: Gambling and Mother and Daughter
Just as Wang Bing guessed, the situation of the Lu tribe was indeed not very good.
On the surface, they can be collectively called the five clans together with Zheng, Li, Cui, and Wang, but in fact, only you know the situation of your own family best.
The Zheng family, the family members are all talented, as can be seen from Zheng Wunian. He is the strongest among a group of young people at a young age, which is the best proof. Of course, no matter how talented he is, he cannot compare to the son of destiny.
Although the Li clan is slightly inferior to the Zheng clan in strength, their most powerful feature is their special skills. The Li family's innate sword energy is not something that ordinary people can practice, and the damage of this innate sword energy is also very significant. I don't know how many people were amazed by Li Suxin's sword on the stage.
The royal family, although the royal family as a whole is quite conventional, it does not prevent them from taking sides. Just like Zhao Fangxu said, sometimes having a higher level of ideological awareness is not necessarily worse than having a higher level of cultivation.
You said that your Lu clan is not as strong as the Zheng clan, not as good as the Li clan in terms of special skills, not as good as the royal clan in terms of ideological awareness, and not as good as the royal clan in terms of financial resources. The key is that they are too embarrassed to do so.
Look at the Cui clan. They knew they were inferior to others, so they worshipped the Zheng clan and recognized them as their big brother .
Finally, looking at the Lu clan, they are neither good nor bad, and have nothing, which has become the biggest shortcoming of the entire Hidden Sect.
Do you think they can be calm?
As soon as Wang Bing extended the olive branch, these people took the bait.
"Haha, that's interesting. This way..."
Wang Bing thought for a moment and said, "Let's tell the Lu tribe first. Tell them that I just finished the engagement party and have a lot of things to deal with. Let the Lu tribe representatives play in Guangzhou for two days first, and then we'll organize a party to invite them."
The game depends on who loses patience, and whoever loses patience will suffer.
Wang Bing was well aware of this principle, so he decided to leave Lu Rao alone for a while, so that he could have the initiative in his hands better.
…
On the other hand, after learning the news, Lu Rao couldn't help but clench her hands. After all, she was the successor of the Lu clan, and she could guess what Wang Bing was thinking.
Lu Rao knew very well that Wang Bing was trying to whet the appetite of their Lu clan, but she had no good solution.
The reasons Wang Bing gave were reasonable, but Lu Rao always felt resentful and unhappy.
"What's wrong? Who are you mad at again?"
At this time, a female voice came from behind Lu Rao, which made Lu Rao slightly stunned. She turned her head and saw a woman behind her, looking at her with a smile.
"Mom, that damn yellow-haired guy from the Wang family is deliberately leaving us alone, trying to test us..." Lu Rao said with a pout.
"Wang family?"
The woman was Lu Rao's mother, Lu Qiang, and also Lu Yin's granddaughter. Judging from her appearance, she looked like a woman in her thirties, and one would never guess that she was actually over fifty.
"I remember now, my grandfather seemed to say that he had handed the boy over to you, but..."
At this point, Lu Qian looked at her daughter with a smile and said, "She's already engaged. I don't think your beauty trick will work now. But then again, you're so small..."
"mom!"
Lu Rao glanced at Lu Qiang unhappily. It was already so late and her mother was still teasing her.
"Don't be impatient! You can't solve problems by being impatient..."
Lu Qian said patiently: "Also don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"But……"
"You don't have to worry about the others."
Lu Qian put her finger on Lu Rao's lips, interrupting her and continuing, "You don't have to take the defeat to Longhu Mountain too seriously. You're not the captain, and if there is any accountability, the Zheng family will bear the biggest blame."
"Okay, I understand. It's just that the conflict between our family and the Cui family has been intensifying recently. I'm worried that the Zheng family will get involved, and then we'll be in big trouble." Lu Rao said, hugging the doll in her arms tightly.
Lu Qian sat down next to Lu Rao and continued, "Don't worry. They probably won't make any big moves in the near future. Haven't you noticed that the Cui family seems to have suddenly gone silent..."
"It seems... it's true. Are they preparing to make a big move?" Lu Rao thought about it and it seemed that the conflict between the two families had indeed been dormant for a while.
"The descendant of the Cui family, Cui Yongjun, is dead!"
After Lu Qiang said this, Lu Rao's eyes revealed a look of disbelief, "Dead? Wasn't he still alive and kicking not long ago?"
"That's the truth. Otherwise, why do you think they suddenly lost their momentum? After all, it takes time to find someone to replace Choi Young-jun, doesn't it?"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Cui Yongjun died inexplicably at the hands of Quan Xing, which directly disrupted the Cui family's plan, but it did buy us some time, so you don't have to be so anxious, calm down first, you know that the Fourth Wang family is not an easy person to deal with, and I guess he is thinking about how to plot against you now."
"Oh, I've reflected on it. Why don't you go and confront the Wang family? I won't go!" Lu Rao felt a headache and wanted to quit.
"You're almost thirty, but you're still like a kid."
When Lu Qian saw that Lu Rao was about to start acting like a child, she said calmly, "Don't blame your mother for not reminding you. If you give up now, be careful not to become a reproductive machine for the family."
"No, I don't want it!"
When Lu Rao heard this, she instantly perked up and said, "I don't want to become a reproductive machine for the family."
"Then you have to work hard. Look at me, your mother. I was able to ask your father to come to my house because I have value that the family has to pay attention to."
Lu Qian looked at her daughter seriously, her eyes became sharp, and said: "So, even if it's for your mother, you should not fall to this point, otherwise, your aunt is the best example!"
"I, I understand..." Lu Rao forced herself to take a deep breath and said.
"Well, I believe you. By the way, I'll tell you a little rumour. Something might have happened to one of the four families. According to my grandfather, given the personalities of those old guys, it's impossible for them to sit back and wait and see what happens. They are not the kind of people who would stop once they get an advantage."
Lu Qiang was somewhat capable, and through some clues she could roughly guess what had happened in the four families, but she just didn't know what it was specifically.
"Is that so? According to what you said, this might be a breakthrough!" Lu Rao's thoughts suddenly became active.
…
Three days later, in front of XXXXX Hotel.
"Is he the person from the Lu tribe or the same Lu Rao?" Wang Bing asked while sitting in the car.
"Yes, and indeed. The Lu tribe really kept their composure this time. They were not as anxious as we expected." Wang Hui, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, replied.
“I see…”
Wang Bing smiled slightly, "It seems that Cui Yongjun's death has given them a sigh of relief. It's true..."
As he spoke, Wang looked out the window at the vehicles approaching, "It's getting more and more interesting! "
