Chapter 268 Have you heard of Fang Haoran?
Xiang Sheng's corpse was cut into eight pieces with his bare hands and used as a bargaining chip to blackmail other families into defecting against the Xiang family. In the eyes of the Ye family, the father and son only felt that the scarred swordsman was not only ruthless, but also cruel. His character is even more cruel.
But in Lu Yu's own opinion, compared to the casualties and losses caused by the Xiang family's actions to the Lu family, his method can only be regarded as tender and affectionate, and there is nothing excessive at all.
After these tricks, the Ye family and his son indeed became obedient and obedient. Following Lu Yu's instructions, they sealed the eight "gifts" and then carefully selected eight suitable families as potential targets for rebellion.
The Ye family's father and son did not deliver these "gifts" one by one. Instead, they invited the heads of the eight families to the Ye family. They told Lu Yu that the purpose of doing this was to prevent the eight "gifts" from being separated. Not being able to tell who this person is will inevitably reduce your persuasiveness...
Lu Yu smiled slightly, knowing that this was because Ye and his son were unsure, so they wanted to use their influence to promote this matter. He was also happy to do so, so he did not tell the truth.
Soon, the heads of the eight families gathered in the Ye Mansion. These families had had quarrels with the Xiang family and were quite dissatisfied with the Xiang family.
Although being called by the Ye family in the middle of the night felt a little strange, considering that during the day, they were all forced by the Xiang family to send troops to attack the Lu family. They were full of dissatisfaction when the Ye family suddenly invited them in the middle of the night. They all thought it was the Ye family. Wanting to speak out against this, they all came over to find out.
Unexpectedly, after everyone had arrived and before they had even exchanged a few words, Ye and his son suddenly brought up Xiang Sheng's body, which had been torn into pieces, making everyone feel as if their heads had been exploded. The whole person suddenly felt better.
The patriarchs of each family did not expect that Ye's father would do so thoroughly. This was not only to oppose the Xiang family's request to send troops, but also to start a head-on war with the Xiang family!
Everyone retreated one after another, trying to escape quickly, but at this time, the door of the entire house was closed and heavily guarded. There was no chance of quietly evacuating. Everyone regretted it and complained in their hearts. If they had known this was the case, no matter what they said, they would never go to the meeting late at night...
"Everyone, please be patient. Although the Xiang family is powerful, they never expected that the Lu family in Ding'an would have a figure like Lu Yu! What's more, they didn't expect that Lu Yu would not be severely punished by the Dali Sword Sect. , but it has been reused, and now it has become a considerable force in the Dali Sword Sect!"
"This time the Xiang family misjudged the situation and started a war against the Lu family without authorization, which has completely offended this rising star of the Dali Sword Sect. The two sides are already in a fight to the death. If we cannot seize this opportunity, we can take advantage of his illness and take advantage of it." He's sick! Do you want to continue to suffer their oppression silently in the future?"
"If the Xiang family is provoked this time, then our family will be the main contributors to bringing order to order! From now on, Lujiang County and Prefecture will be completely controlled by us. Not only will we no longer have to look up to the Xiang family, but those who have been affected by the Xiang family and their The resources that the gangsters have occupied for many years will be redistributed! Even if you don’t think about yourself, you should think about the children of the clan. These resources are enough to ensure that the family will last for generations!”
Ye Zhengkang said loudly to the confused and confused crowd with a deafening voice.
As the leader of the second largest family in Lujiang, he is full of strategy and courage. After realizing that he had boarded Lu Yu's pirate ship and there was no possibility of retreating, he quickly changed his role completely. Now it is a life-or-death battle between the two parties. In this situation, only by tricking these eight clan leaders into boarding the pirate ship together can we ensure to the greatest extent that the one who survives is himself.
If he loses this battle, of course, nothing will matter; if he wins, he can not only become the governor of Lujiang County, but also gain a friendship from the Dali Sword Sect... Just judging from the performance of the scar guest next to him , you can know what an extraordinary person Lu Yu is hidden behind the scenes!
In this way, not only will his personal life be smooth in the future, but the Ye family will also benefit greatly.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhengkang couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and secretly made up his mind to pull all the family members onto the pirate ship.
Sure enough, after his remarks, these clan leaders began to seriously consider the feasibility of this matter and no longer resisted completely.
"Who would want to continue to be scorned by the Xiang family? But the situation is stronger than the people!"
"It's not easy to deal with the Xiang family. There are many people who are dissatisfied with them, but there are even more people who are won over by them using various means..."
"With all due respect, our families alone cannot fight against the members of the Xiang family. After all, the difference in strength is too huge!"
"Don't forget that the Xiang family has many in-laws in the Dawu Dynasty, and the third prince is their absolute backer. Even if we are lucky enough to provoke the Xiang family, how should we deal with the people behind him? "
…
Various clan leaders raised objections one after another.
Ye Zhengkang smiled slightly and said confidently: "It is indeed not easy to provoke the Xiang family. In normal times, we would have absolutely no chance of success, so I said that we must rely on the Xiang family to fall out with the Lu family. Chance……"
"Since it is an alliance and cooperation, there will naturally be a division of labor. We families in Lujiang City only need to be responsible for dealing with the Xiang family's forces in the city! It just so happens that the Xiang family has forced us to send troops to attack the Lu family this time, which is just right. This gave us an excuse to mobilize troops, so we took advantage of the opportunity to send troops and suddenly launched an offensive to capture Xiang Lijian. By then, the Xiang family would be in chaos. Then we cooperated with the Lu family's troops to cooperate with others, and we would be able to completely destroy the entire Xiang family in one fell swoop! "
"Although the Xiang family is powerful, they would never have thought that we would suddenly attack at this time. We calculated with intention but not intention. The chance of success of this plan is extremely high!"
The more Ye Zhengkang talked, the more excited he became, and his face gradually turned red.
"As for external reinforcements, we don't need to worry about this! No matter whether it is the third prince or other relatives of the emperor who send people, this young master Wang Tieyi will be responsible for dealing with them! He conquered the Blood Knife Sect and the Bu Family one after another. , and he drove back the best swordsman in Kyoto with one move at Ding'an City Pier!"
While speaking, Ye Zhengkang let Lu Yu in front of everyone.
For a moment, everyone looked at him.
Some were shocked, some were surprised, some were sluggish, and some were doubtful... It was complicated and hard to describe, with different expressions, but in the final analysis, they all contained a trace of expectation.
Lu Yu understood.
Even though Ye Zhengkang's words were spitting, he still couldn't give everyone full confidence. Whether tonight's plan would ultimately work or not would still depend on his finishing touches.
So Lu Yu took a step forward, looked around at everyone, and calmed down.
"No matter how much I say, I believe you won't completely believe it, so let me ask you a question!"
He paused and asked, "Have you heard of Fang Haoran?"
Everyone was shocked.
The god of war Fang Haoran once defeated the enemy's army and received the canonization from Emperor Dawu, but he refused to accept it and left anyway. This was a household name in the Dawu Dynasty. For such a figure, they would not fail to listen. Said?
But, what does this have to do with the matter at hand?
Lu Yu smiled slightly, and continued without waiting for anyone to answer: "To be honest, Fang Haoran has a very good relationship with my cousin in the Dali Sword Sect. This time I heard about what happened in my cousin's family, and I was extremely indignant. , but with such a distinguished status, it was naturally impossible for him to come in person, so he gave my cousin a ninth-grade talisman..."
As he said that, Lu Yu suddenly took out a talisman from the Qiankun bag. The talisman was shining with colorful rays of light, and the dazzling light made everyone almost unable to open their eyes.
Moreover, there was a clear wave of spiritual power coming from the talisman, and the coercion of that powerful power made everyone tremble in their hearts, their breath was unstable, and they did not even dare to take a breath.
The ninth grade talisman is so powerful!
The various clan leaders present had never seen a ninth-grade talisman, but they had no doubts about the authenticity of this talisman.
Naturally, only a mythical figure like Fang Haoran can possess such a powerful talisman. It seems that all this is true!
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked. They never thought that the real backstage of the Lu family was Fang Haoran, the God of War of the Dali Sword Sect!
"This talisman has the power to destroy the heaven and the earth! Whether it is the masters of the Xiang family or the support of the third prince, I can defeat them in one fell swoop with this talisman. They don't even have a chance to resist!"
Lu Yu asked with a smile: "So, are you still worried now?"
Everyone fell silent again.
But this time, the doubts in their eyes disappeared, and their eyes became hot!
They answered Lu Yu's questions with practical actions...
"I, the Huang family, would like to accept this gift!"
"I, the Li family, would like to accept this gift!"
"I, the He family, would like to accept this gift!"
…
Lu Yu watched everyone pick up the gift box containing Xiang Sheng's body on the ground, and couldn't help but silently apologize to Fang Haoran.
Ordinary disciples of the Dali Sword Sect cannot start a war with the Dawu Dynasty without permission, so you, the God of War, can only take the blame for this...
