The Strongest Devouring Upgrade

Chapter 570: The Lu Family

Compared with the past, Wanqiu City today has not changed much.

In two years, for a person like Lu Pingan who has experienced ups and downs, it will feel very long, and the whole person has also obtained tremendous growth and progress.

But for the relatively peaceful city of Wanqiu, it seems that too many years have passed.

Most of the buildings and shops on the street are still the familiar appearance of Lu Pingan and Hetian.

It's just that the city seems to be a little cleaner, and the streets seem to be newly built, with changes in details, and the overall feeling is still the same.

After entering the city, the three of Lu Pingan walked along the street with their horses.

It is inevitable that Lu Ping'an and He Tianhe recalled the past and sighed with emotion.

Meng Shaoyuan looked around and felt the market that was different from Dongyu State.

There were not many people on the street, and the three of Lu Pingan looked ordinary, and naturally no one noticed them.

In order to avoid attracting attention, they even used spells to hide the breath of the dragon blood horse.

After all, the middle-rank spirit beasts appearing in Wanqiu City are still very easy to attract attention.

After a while, Lu Pingan said, "Let’s find a place to live."

Meng Shaoyuan said, "Isn't your home here? Why don't you go home?"

Lu Ping'an said, "Didn't you say that you can't kill the snake?"

Meng Shaoyuan said, "Why don't you just let your family keep secret? And you came back, isn't it just to go home and have a look?"

Lu Ping'an said, "My Lu family is a big family here, with a lot of people, so let's find a chance to sneak back later."

Tian He said: "Well, that's right, let's find an inn."

Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "Are you not going to Yijinlou on Liuli Street?"

Tian He was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately laughed, waved his hand, and said, "No, no, I don't like going to such a place long ago."

In fact, Lu Pingan also knew that Tian He had already abandoned those hobbies, but could not help but made a little joke.

Soon, the three of them found an ordinary inn and stayed temporarily.

After checking in, they found a table in the corner of the lobby of the inn, sat down, ordered something at random, and "eavesdropped" on other people's conversations while drinking tea and chatting.

In addition to specifically asking, this approach is the fastest way to understand the current situation in Wanqiu City.

Fortunately, this inn has a good business, and there are more guests eating and drinking. It didn't take long for Lu Pingan and others to learn something from the conversations of others.

For example, the current city owner is Lu Tianhai of the Lu family.

This person is Lu Pingan’s cousin. He used to be a low-key person in the family. Lu Pingan did not know him well.

But now from others, they are all praises, and it seems that the city lord Lu Tianhai seems to have done a good job.

For another example, now in Wanqiu City, the Lu family dominates.

In the past, the Chen family wanted to fight against the Lu family. After the Lu family gained power, they suffered a heavy blow and ended up ruined.

And the Ye Family, who was also one of the three big families back then, had established a relationship with the Lu Family a long time ago, so that it is not too bad now, but the power is not as strong as before.

As for the Tian family controlled by Tian Sheng, it was naturally completely decayed with his abdication. Now it is unknown how many people are still alive.

According to the guests at the neighboring table, the reason why the Lu family has grown to this point is that, on the one hand, the Lu family became the lord of the city and gained great power. Then they did well and gained support from all parties.

On the other hand, the most important reason is actually Lu Pingan.

Lu Pingan not only has an excellent relationship with the Cangwu Kingdom’s imperial family, but even has a famous presence in the entire Eastern Continent.

There is such a strong in the clan, who dares to fight against him? Who doesn't want to cooperate with them?

Of course, this only refers to most situations, but there is nothing absolute in the world, and some people have been making trouble with the Lu family recently.

It is said that the other party is the Ma family in the neighboring Jiangliao City. The situation of the Ma family is similar to that of the Lu family. It is also a dominant force in their city. At the same time, the Ma family also served as the lord of the Jiangliao City.

The two sides had a dispute over some mineral issues on the border between the two cities.

It was something that could have been negotiated, but the Ma family's attitude was very tough and arrogant, as if they didn't care that the Lu family came out of Lu Ping'an and made various unreasonable demands.

Naturally, the Lu family refused to be outdone, and refused to give in. The situation fell into a deadlock, and the situation seemed a bit tense.

As for how it will develop, the guests who talked about it didn't know, they just chatted at the dinner table and made various speculations and comments.

However, after listening to these, the three of Lu Pingan can be considered to have some understanding of the current situation.

Tian He said, "Brother Lu Xian, it seems that your Lu family is in trouble."

Meng Shaoyuan said: "Then why is the Ma family so bold, that even Brother Lu and his family dare to provoke?"

Tian Hedao: "It may be because they have a strong backing, and then they thought that Brother Lu Xian would not come back in the short term, but I guess the biggest reason is that their own style of doing things is very arrogant. But anyway, I think Brother Lu Xian you It is still necessary to help deal with it."

Lu Pingan thought for a while, and said, "But once I come forward, I will definitely be noticed by Tian Sheng and Han Yingge. This will spoil the more important thing."

Tian He frowned slightly and said, "This is true, but now that you know that your Lu family is having difficulties, you can't just ignore it, right?"

Lu Ping'an said, "I really intend to ignore it for the time being. Let's watch the changes first. If it doesn't work, I will figure out how to deal with it."

Meng Shaoyuan nodded and said, "That's right, it's possible that the Patriarch of your Lu Family, or the City Lord, can solve it by yourself, and you don't need to intervene at all."

Lu Pingan said: "I hope so."

Tian Hedao: "If it is really just a conflict between two big families or two cities, I believe that the Lu family can still handle it. After all, the strength of Wanqiu City is not worse than that of Jiangliao City, but we are afraid. If other forces are involved, it will be more troublesome."

Lu Pingan said: "As long as it is a force in Cangwu, I am not worried about the problem of not being able to fight. I just don't want to make a big fuss and destroy our original plan. If you don’t do it, even if you really want to do it, you have to find a way to change it.

Tian He said: "Then you have to go home and ask yourself, so that you can keep up to date with the latest situation, otherwise it will be too late when we hear the news here."

Lu Ping'an nodded, and said, "Well, I have this intention, so I decided to go home tonight."

...

As night fell, Lu Ping'an left the inn by himself.

When approaching the Lu Family territory, he used his invisibility ability and walked in silently.

Lu Pingan found that the Lu family's territory had expanded a bit and some new buildings had been built, but the overall layout had not changed, and he could still find a way.

Soon, Lu Pingan came to the old house where he used to live.

He wanted to see if Uncle Bai still lived here, but he sensed that there was no one among them.

This caused Lu Ping's heart to sink, thinking, could it be Uncle Bai that something happened?

But after another thought, Lu Ping'an felt that it should not be possible.

Before he left, he shared with Uncle Bai a piece of the blood of the Huang Tier top grade.

Not to mention how powerful it can make Uncle Bai become, but at least it can strengthen his body and extend his life span by decades. There is still no problem.

Moreover, Patriarch Lu Songyin will definitely not treat Uncle Bai badly.

Of course, the world is unpredictable, and Lu Pingan didn't know if anything happened inside the Lu family after he left.

At this point, Lu Pingan didn't stay anymore, and immediately searched elsewhere in Lu's house.

Anyway, no one can detect the existence of Lu Ping'an, he can go wherever he wants.

After a while, Lu Pingan did not find Uncle Bai, but instead saw Lu Linglong.

Today, Lu Linglong has grown a lot taller. Although she is only eleven years old, she is still a little girl, but she is already a small beauty and slim.

She is now practicing swords with a wooden sword on a lawn, and she is still playing in a decent way. There is a bit of heroism on her immature cheeks.

Seeing this, Lu Ping'an stopped immediately, with a relieved smile on his face.

To say that he is most concerned about the people in the Lu family, it must be Bai Bo and Lu Linglong.

So now I see Lu Linglong, Lu Pingan is also very happy, and if he finds her, he will naturally find Uncle Bai later.

But Lu Pingan didn't show up directly, but first made sure that no one else appeared nearby, and then walked behind a big tree, removed the invisibility effect, and at the same time restored his original face, and finally walked out slowly.

"Oh, wrong again!"

Lu Linglong practiced a wrong move, so she couldn't help but said annoyedly.

"Do you want me to teach you."

A voice suddenly came from behind, which immediately shocked Lu Linglong.

But the first reaction of this little girl was not to scream or avoid it, but to directly hold the wooden sword tightly, turn around and stab it.

But after the stabbing, Lu Linglong saw her wooden sword clamped by two fingers. The action seemed very light, but Lu Linglong used all her strength to move the wooden sword half way.

In desperation, Lu Linglong raised her head and looked up, and at this look, she was stunned, dumbfounded, and her face full of disbelief.

Lu Ping'an smiled and said, "What? You haven't seen me for more than two years, so you can't recognize me?"

Lu Linglong reacted when she said this, but she still rubbed her eyes, pinched her cheek, and said, "Isn't I dreaming?"

Lu Pingan said, "Of course not."

Only then did Lu Linglong confirm that Lu Pingan in front of him was a real existence, and immediately opened his mouth and screamed excitedly.

"Ah... Brother Ping, you are finally back! I miss you!"

She didn’t have much fun just by shouting, she rushed over and hugged Lu Pingan, and said: "Brother Pingan, I really miss you, why are you coming back now? Have you forgotten Linglong..."

Lu Pingan smiled bitterly. Fortunately, his eyesight was quick and his hands were quick. Before Lu Linglong screamed, he set up a silent formation. Otherwise, the Lu family would hear that scream, they would definitely think something was wrong with Lu Linglong, and then swarmed. Come.
