Chapter 594: Hands off the shopkeeper
In the Sword Emperor Sect, Lu Yun had just taken office when he called Liao Jinlun to talk alone, and said earnestly: "Old Liao, I have paved the way for you, and the rest is up to you."
"What does this mean, Sect Master?" Liao Jinlun looked at Lu Yun with confusion.
Lu Yun smiled and said, "You know, I have never been very interested in the position of your sect leader. If those dogs hadn't been too outrageous, I wouldn't have come back so soon."
"Do you want to be a hands-off boss?" Liao Jinlun's eyes suddenly widened.
At this point, how could he not understand Lu Yun's meaning? It was obvious that he didn't want to stay in the Sword Emperor Sect.
But you have only been the sect leader for less than half a day!
Moreover, half a day ago, you were still in front of the vast number of Sword Sect disciples, swearing how responsible and capable you were, but now you turn around and treat all that as bullshit?
Is it hypocritical?
Liao Jinlun's face was full of resentment.
"Don't say it so harshly. What do you mean by a hands-off boss? I'm just somewhere else with some unfinished business, so I can't stay in the Sword Emperor Sect for the time being." Lu Yun explained.
Liao Jinlun was curious: "Master, may I ask you if you have anything you haven't completed? Tell me about it, maybe I can help you."
"you?"
Lu Yun glanced at him, his hair stood on end, and said, "Absolutely not, I have several pretty girls waiting to be picked up, why are you joining in the fun, no way!"
Lu Yun doesn't like this.
Liao Jinlun felt even more resentful. He thought that the sect leader had some important unfinished business. It turned out that he was thinking about picking up girls. In order to pick up girls, he even ignored the sect.
Really useless!
"I feel relieved to leave the Sword Emperor Sect to you."
Lu Yun didn't seem to notice Liao Jinlun's resentment. He patted him on the shoulder and acted as if to say, "Young man, work hard and I'll give you a promotion and a raise in the future."
"Ugh……"
What else could Liao Jinlun say? He could only sigh heavily and said, "Since the Sect Master has made up his mind, I will have to take over the position of Sect Master temporarily. When you have dealt with your personal affairs, you can come back and take over at any time."
"Haha, no problem!"
Lu Yun laughed out loud twice. The feeling of being a hands-off boss was so great. No wonder Liu Yan'er became more and more free after handing her bar to the people below.
By the way, should we find an opportunity to attack that charming vixen?
She probably doesn't know that she has cracked the secret of the nameless magic. If the vixen dares to play with fire again when she returns this time, Lu Yun doesn't mind teaching her a lesson.
"My real name is Lu Yun."
After Lu Yun left the Sword Emperor Sect with these words, he strode away. Not long after he left, Zhu Gaofeng came to the Sword Emperor Sect and met Weng Zhengyuan.
Weng Zhengyuan was very surprised by Zhu Gaofeng's visit because the two did not have much of a relationship.
But you still have to be polite when you need to be polite.
"Elder Weng, when I came in just now, I saw that your Ghost Sword Sect seemed to be different from before." Zhu Gaofeng obviously noticed the subtle changes in the Ghost Sword Sect and asked in confusion.
Weng Zhengyuan said: "In the future, there will be no Ghost Sword Sect, Ancient Sword Sect, or Spirit Sword Sect. There will only be one Sword Emperor Sect. Our three major sword sects are originally a whole."
Zhu Gaofeng was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and said, "Is it because of the Sword Emperor's successor?"
It's not hard to guess.
Not long ago, the inheritor of Jianhuang Mountain came into being, and then the three major sword sects merged into one. There must be a close connection between the two.
Weng Zhengyuan changed the subject and said, "This is our Sword Emperor Sect's internal affairs, so Patriarch Zhu doesn't need to ask any more questions. I wonder why Patriarch Zhu is looking for me this time?"
He didn't believe that Zhu Gaofeng would come here to make friends for no reason.
Zhu Gaofeng thought for a moment, then asked, "Elder Weng, I heard that your brother, Old Ghost Weng, disappeared some time ago?"
"Zhu Gaofeng, what do you mean?"
Weng Zhengyuan had been polite to Zhu Gaofeng, but Zhu Gaofeng said such offensive words, as if he was deliberately exposing his scars, and Weng Zhengyuan became angry all of a sudden.
Zhu Gaofeng hurriedly explained, "Don't be angry, Elder Weng. I said this with no ill intention, because my son Zhu Yu was also killed at the same time."
Weng Zhengyuan's expression relaxed, and then he showed a look of surprise: "Your son is dead?"
He really didn't know about it.
At the beginning, Weng Zhengyuan only knew that his younger brother Weng Laogui left Kunlun in order to snatch the Qing Emperor's Xuanhuo Ding, and never returned. He had no idea what exactly happened.
That's why Weng Zhengyuan went to Danyang Sect and made a scene, trying to force out the truth, but ended up running into Lu Yun and was badly embarrassed.
At this moment, listening to Zhu Gaofeng's words, it seemed that he knew something, so Weng Zhengyuan said in a deep voice: "Master Zhu, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. There is no need to beat around the bush."
"Okay, then I'll be frank. In fact, your brother Weng Laogui and my son Zhu Yu were both killed by the same person."
"Who?"
"This person has fought with you before. He is the peerless strong man who appeared in Danyang Sect a while ago."
"Uh……"
Weng Zhengyuan was stunned for a moment.
Wasn't the peerless expert who appeared in Danyang Sect a while ago Lu Yun? Was Lu Yun the murderer of his brother?
Weng Zhengyuan frowned and asked solemnly, "Where did you get this news? Is it reliable?"
Zhu Gaofeng sneered and said, "A silly girl from Danyang Sect told me. She said that she was at the scene on the day of the incident and witnessed everything with her own eyes. I don't think she would have the guts to lie."
Weng Zhengyuan fell into deep thought.
This incident was initially caused by the Qing Emperor's Mysterious Fire Cauldron, so the Danyang Sect most likely knew the inside story. In addition, during that period, the sudden appearance of such a powerful master like Lu Yun in the Danyang Sect was a very abrupt event.
The leader of Danyang Sect practices alchemy, but his skills are generally low. How could he possibly cultivate such a peerless strong man?
Weng Zhengyuan had long felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
After hearing what Zhu Gaofeng said, Weng Zhengyuan felt that it was very true.
