Chapter 56 - 56: Give You Some Face?
Lu Yuan had already decided to intervene in this classic scene of “an evil young master snatching a civilian woman”.
That being said, as a steady person, Lu Yuan had three unshakeable principles.
First, he must not act on impulse and fight a battle he was not confident in.
Second, he would never trust anyone easily, especially women.
Third, he must not miss any details that could cause danger.
In the short span of one to two minutes, Lu Yuan had already investigated the two involved and came to a preliminary conclusion: He could deal with this matter!
I Xu Wan’er]
[Cultivation: None]
I Luck talent: Devastatingly Beautiful J
I Luck: 800/1500]
[Devastatingly Beautiful: Charm points +ioo, has a certain charm effect]
[Chen Wei (Great Xia Kingdom’s sixth Prince)]
[Cultivation: Qi Cultivation Stage, level 3]
[:uck: 300/300]
After looking at their interfaces, Lu Yuan was surprised to find that they were both people with luck.
Among them, not only did Xu Wan er Xu have a luck talent, but the upper limit of her iuck reached an astonishing 1500 points.
One should know that even Chen Yan, who had joined the Qingyun Sect, only had a maximum of 1000 points of luck.
Yet now, Xu Wan’er, who had no cultivation at all, had a higher luck limit than Chen Yan.
What did this mean? This meant that this girl s future was not simple!
To be honest, at this point, even if Xu Wan er didn’t have any luck, Lu Yuan would not let the luck item go. After all, it was something that had appeared for the first time.
Therefore, the fact that Xu Wan’er had great luck only made him more determined to interfere.
Although Lu Yuan was very steady, he would still take the initiative to make a move under certain circumstances.
After all, the essence of stability was not to avoid everything, but to make a move only when he was 100% confident in dealing with the other party.
The current situation undoubtedly met all the conditions for him to make a move.
If this evil young master was someone else, Lu Yuan might have been a little worried.
However, this evil young master was the Great Xia Kingdom s sixth Prince.
Lu Yuan was not worried at all about the trouble that might come if he offended the other party. After all, he had already greatly offended the Great Xia Kingdom’s Imperial family in the matter of Chen Yan.
In any case, Lu Yuan felt that Chen Yan would find trouble with him sooner or later.
By that time, how could the Great Xia Kingdom’s Imperial family, the power behind Chen Yan, not come forward?
It was simply a case of owing a larger debt to the same person.
Thus, after considering all the factors, Lu Yuan felt that not only would he be able to obtain a luck item, but he would also be able to obtain a “number two lucky lady’.
The price was only to offend the Great Xia Kingdom’s Imperial family once again.
If offered the same deal again, Lu Yuan would do it 10000 times!
On the street, as time passed, more and more people gathered to watch.
The sixth Prince, Chen Wei, also seemed to be getting impatient.
He got off his horse and walked toward Xu Wan’er arrogantly.
Seeing this, the servants at the side made way for him.
Xu Wan’er, who was sitting on the ground, saw that Chen Wei was getting closer. She was so scared that she started to retreat.
However, the more she acted like this, the more excited Chen Wei was.
He seemed to enjoy the feeling of a cat catching a mouse.
Just as Chen Wei was about to touch Xu Wan’er, a flying sword stopped in front of him.
The sudden flying sword frightened Chen Wei so much that he took a few steps back.
’Who is it? Who did this?”
After Chen Wei’s angry roar, four people walked out of the crowd.
The flying sword then returned to one of the golden-masked men.
Chen Wei’s expression turned ugly when he saw them.
He recognized these people.
Three gold “tank great practitioners and the Devil Slayers Division’s director.
The flying sword had been used by the great practitioner, Shang Yun.
Damn it, why were the people of the Devil Slayers Division here?
At this moment, Lu Yuan and the others were no longer in the casual clothes they were wearing back in the Drunken Cloud Brothel. Instead, they were wearing the Devil Slayers Division s exclusive uniform and masks.
The masks that were exclusive to the Devil Slayers Division were very special. Not only did they have the function of covering one’s face, but they also had the function of stating one’s identity.
The masks had drawings that represented the wearers’ codenames, and the color of the mask represented the status of one in the Devil Slayers Division.
The position represented by the golden mask was the gold-rank great practitioners in the Devil Slayers Division.
As for Lu Yuan, he had naturally put on his exclusive mask.
The color of his mask was slightly different from Shang Yun and the others.
It was not gold, but white, a noble color like white jade.
As for the drawing on his mask that represented his codename… It was a wisp of beautiful green flame.
The current director of the Devil Slayers Division, codename… Green Flame!
Seeing that the people who came forward were not only three gold-rank great practitioners but also the current director of the Devil Slayers Division, Chen Wei was frozen in place.
However, he seemed to have something to rely on.
After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, “1 didn’t expect that the gold-rank great practitioners of the Devil Slayers Division would meddle in the matters of the living instead of dealing with the demons and evil in our country. Since when did the Devil Slayers Division have the right to interfere in the matters of the Imperial family?”
When he heard this, the wily old fox Shang Yun had already thought of an excuse, “Im afraid there’s no misunderstanding, sixth Prince. We didn’t come here to meddle in your affairs. Our purpose is her.”
The person Shang Yun was pointing at was Xu Wan’er.
When she saw that Shang Yun was pointing at her, Xu Wan er was stunned.
Since when did she get involved with the Devil Slayers Division?
Under Xu Wan er’s astonished gaze, Shang Yun walked to her side.
“Miss, although 1 just happened to pass by, I can see that your father seemed to have died an unnatural death, so I suspect that there was a demon or evil spirit behind it. Please come with us.”
Hearing this, Xu Wan’er’s face turned pale with fear.
In the eyes of ordinary people like them, the Devil Slayers Division was a devil’s den that ate people whole.
Few ordinary people who went in came out alive.
Asking her to go to the Devil Slayers Division was almost the same as sending her to her death!
However, Xu Wan’er thought about the fact that if she didn’t go to the Devil Slayers Division, she would end up in a worse state.
Thus, after hesitating for a moment, she timidly nodded.
However, when she was about to get up, Chen Wei shouted angrily, “I don’t agree! Today, I will take this woman away. Even the Devil Slayers Division won’t be able to stop me!”
“Pfft…”
Almost as soon as Chen Wei finished saying that, a chuckle came from the side.
Chen Wei turned around and found that the person who laughed was the new director of the Devil Slayers Division, Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan walked to Chen Wei and asked, “The sixth Prince, right? Humans have their way, and celestials have their paths. We can t meddle in the affairs of the mortals, but strange and evil affairs like this… You can t do anything about it either.”
In the face of Lu Yuan s domineering speech, Chen Wei gritted his teeth so hard that he almost broke them.
Although the Imperial family and the Devil Slayers Division were two completely independent organizations that didn’t interfere with each other, that was only under normal circumstances.
No matter how one looked at it, the current situation was not normal.
The position of the Devil Slayers Division’s director was equivalent to the Emperor of the Imperial family!
If Xu Wan’er was an ordinary woman, Chen Wei would have let Lu Yuan take her away as a show of respect to the Devil Slayers Division.
However, he couldn’t allow that, absolutely not.
It was because he was not the one who wanted Xu Wan’er, but his father who was behind him.
Between offending the director of the Devil Slayers Division and his father, the sixth Prince Chen Wei ultimately chose the former.
Chen Wei was silent for a moment and suddenly shouted, “Eunuch Li, stop watching. You’re the only one who can handle this.”
’Sigh!”
With a sigh, an old man in a eunuch’s uniform appeared behind Chen Wei.
Innate Stage martial artist, the eunuch of the Imperial Palace, Li Tianlu!
Li Tianlu came to Lu Yuan and said with a benign expression, “Director, can you give me some face for today’s matter?”
Li Tianlu thought that since he had already said that, Lu Yuan should understand that he was actually asking him to give the Imperial family some face.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Yuan heard this, he laughed. The contempt in his laughter was almost unconcealed.
“Face? Since when does the Devil Slayers Division have to give you, a eunuch, any face when we do things?”
Li Tianlu’s expression turned cold the moment he heard that.
It seemed that today’s matter wouldn’t end well..
