Chapter 2759: Arrogant at the Front and Respectful at the Back
One of the weakest outer sect elders quickly stood up and picked up the invitation. The content inside is that Wang Zhi invited Lu Chen to participate in the weapon refining ceremony.
At that time, Lu Chen had not yet joined the Weapon Refining Alliance. Naturally, there would be no sect introduction, if it was this kind of invitation. Basically, they will be classified as casual cultivators, and they will be led by outer disciples to collective residences.
It was only when the outer sect elder picked up the jade talisman, especially after seeing the contents inside. Suddenly his attitude made a sharp turn of 180 degrees, and a respectful smile immediately appeared on his face.
This change attracted onlookers who were always paying attention, as well as many inner and outer disciples. They all focused their attention on the elders of the outer sect, even the three elders of the inner and outer sect who had just suppressed the throbbing in their hearts. I also looked over, waiting for the next step.
"It turns out to be the Weapon Refining Alliance, Junior Brother Xiao, the candidate for the overall alliance leader. Disrespectful, disrespectful!" Zhang Desha, the elder of the outer sect, had a flattering smile on his old face.
Many elders from the inner and outer sects of Donghua Sect are honorary elders of the Weapon Refining Alliance. Enjoying various preferential benefits from the Weapon Refining Alliance, you were just a young master who was in trouble.
Although he is only one of many candidates, he is someone who can become a candidate. Those are all from the Weapon Refining Alliance, carefully selected and passed the examination.
This kind of person, let alone the Donghua Sect, is ranked lowest among the top magic sects. Even the strongest top level magic sect will treat candidates politely when they meet them. Thinking of what the four people did just now, Zhang Desha's face turned red.
After hearing Zhang Desa's words, Sun Wei and the others immediately stood up and responded. The originally indifferent expression suddenly turned into a smile. If I hadn't seen their faces just now, I wouldn't have believed the dignified elders of the inner and outer sects of Donghua Sect. Such a quality!
It explains the meaning of being slapped in the face without knowing anything!
The onlookers and many inner and outer disciples were also dumbfounded at this time. Especially those who laughed just now, their faces were burning with pain. Although my skin didn't hurt, my heart was bleeding.
How exaggerated the smile just now was, how embarrassing it was now.
The title of being blind-sighted can only be found wherever Lu Chen appears. It will stay with them for the rest of their lives, unless they can cause amnesia for everyone present.
This is the result of someone who laughs at others casually, and someone who likes to watch the fun. The most taboo thing is that you can watch the fun but you can't just interrupt and laugh at it. Otherwise, it is easy to become a fool and be the object of ridicule after dinner.
As for what I just said, we need to drive away Chase Lu. The two inner disciples who continued to pursue Wang Qimeng were now under the teasing eyes of their fellow disciples. I wish there was a crack in the ground that they could get through.
Shame on you, shame on you!
Several people who collected the news were also very shocked at this time. According to the intelligence they collected, there are only thirty-five candidates for the Weapon Refining Alliance.
But there is no such thing as Lu Chen among them, so Lu Chen is the weapon refining alliance that he recently joined. Becoming the thirty-sixth candidate, he had such a level of strength and weapon refining level when he entered.
This proves that even if Lu Chen is a casual cultivator, he is also a casual cultivator with a strong inheritance. This is very important and seems to be in the future. A new generation of strong men is about to be born!
Right now!
An old figure appeared from high in the sky inside the mountain gate. He rushed down quickly, with sweat on his face because of his anxiety.
Lu Chen is the life-saving straw for Wang Zhi to break through the limit of his life. Wang Zhi naturally relies on Lu Chen very much. He was indeed busy with something just now, just after hearing Wang Qimeng's summons. He immediately put down what he was doing and rushed over at full speed.
Compared with the tasks assigned by the Demon Sect, compared with the limit of one's own life. Relatively speaking, the latter was more important, and he also learned that Lu Chen came wearing a sixth-level purple robe.
Therefore, he became even more eager and at the same time welcomed the four newly promoted elders at the mountain gate. I cursed in my heart, this is the inheritance of an extraordinary master.
He also joined the Weapon Refining Alliance and became a candidate for the general leader. Even the great elder and the sect master must be polite when they see Lu Chen. You, the newly promoted elders, have no right to laugh at and embarrass the guests.
As a veteran outer sect elder, although his status is not as high as that of the inner sect elders. But because Wang Zhi has a wide circle of friends, his own strength has reached the level of the Demon General.
He can rank among the top three among all outer sect elders, surpassing many inner sect elders. Therefore, in Donghua Sect, they also have a certain right to speak.
"How do you four entertain the distinguished guests? You are not afraid of embarrassing the Demon Sect."
After Wang Zhi landed, he cursed angrily at the four elders. Then he came to Lu Chen and laughed and said: "Brother Lu, here you are, I was dealing with some things just now. I wasted some time, but I didn't expect that you were wronged.
For my brother’s sake, please don’t blame me, Donghuamen. As for these four blind people, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation on behalf of the Demon Sect. "
Lu Chen would not pay attention to these four dogs who looked down upon others, and it was not worth arguing with them. This time I came to Donghua Gate firstly to repay Wang Zhi's favor, and secondly to seize the Suzaku Fire. Unless these two things are done, someone is deliberately looking for trouble.
Lu Chen didn't plan to pursue the case directly, and whether the time was right to take action was another matter.
"Brother, it's serious." Lu Chen waved his hand.
The four inner and outer sect elders also looked sarcastic at this time. The four of them are all newly promoted elders of the inner and outer sects, and they were all inner sect disciples before. It was just that he couldn't break through his own bottleneck for a long time, so he was arranged to become an elder.
Therefore, when it comes to dealing with the world, he is not as smooth and sophisticated as other elders. This ignores the fact that even the sixth-level weapon masters among casual cultivators are not something they can neglect.
Donghua Gate is about to hold a weapon refining ceremony, and the four of them are the welcoming elders.
The duty is to receive guests, if there is a problem with the reception. Naturally, they will be punished, and the actions of the four people just now were also somewhat thoughtless. No matter how big the gap in expectations is, guests cannot be left alone.
If they were really investigated, they would at least be found guilty of dereliction of duty.
So when Wang Zhi reprimanded him, the four of them also apologized sincerely. Whether you can be forgiven or not is not important, what is important is not letting go of what happened today. If it reaches the ears of the great elder and the sect master, it will be considered as dodging a disaster.
If it still reaches the ears of the great elder and the sect master, then you can only wish for blessings!
In fact, the four of them were somewhat complaining about Lu Chen at this time. If Lu Chen hadn't opened his mouth and said that he was a casual cultivator, the four of them would not have neglected Lu Chen. But the four of them didn't think about it. Others' low profile was not a reason for them to make excuses.
I can't do my job well, and I shirk responsibility when something goes wrong. No matter how high the position of such a person is, he will not be able to achieve anything.
Because the mind is narrow-minded and the pattern is too small! Limited vision, not worth mentioning!
Wang Zhi and Wang Qimeng took Lu Chen out of sight. Only then did the onlookers and disciples from the inner and outer sects react, and news spread all over the place. At the same time, Lu Chen's portrait also appeared in the major demon sect forces in the Eastern Realm.
Donghua Gate occupies a mountain range, and the area is naturally extremely vast. There are nine peaks and eighteen halls in total, scattered among the mountains.
The main peak is usually not open to the public, even when the sect leader is discussing matters with the elders. They also mostly choose to do it on other peaks. The main peak will only be open for a short period of time during the ancestor worship ceremony, that is, the weapon refining ceremony.
It is said that under the Suzaku, it is under the main peak. But in less than a thousand years, even a strong person in the Demon King realm would not be able to find its location.
There is a straight path from the mountain gate to the main peak. You can choose to walk below or fly in the air. It's just that because of the existence of the mountain protection formation, the flying height cannot exceed a hundred meters.
We controlled the flight at fifty meters in the air and reached the main peak half an hour later. Except for the central square where the weapon refining ceremony is held, the rest of the place is filled with various buildings.
At this time, the place was full of people and bustling.
There is still one day left before the start of the weapon refining ceremony. Lu Chen has also been coming to Donghua Gate for more than ten days, and has been staying in the courtyard to meditate these days. I didn't hang out or make new friends like other people.
Lu Chen did not respond to Wang Qimeng's invitation. Instead, he spent time in seclusion. Lu Chen was really afraid of this girl. No matter how she expressed it openly or covertly, this girl just refused to listen.
I come to Lu Chen's courtyard every day, wanting to meet Lu Chen. Or maybe you want to take Lu Chen to visit Donghua Gate, Sima Zhao’s Heart.
After doing this three times in a row, Lu Chen simply went into seclusion to avoid her.
Anyway, the resources are sufficient and nothing happens. There is still half a month until the weapon refining ceremony begins. It is enough to break through the realm once. It is gratifying to succeed. If it fails, consider it a retreat.
Lu Chen practiced with peace of mind for half a month, even after consuming 10 million low-grade magic stones. Successfully broke through to the late stage of the Demon General realm,
With the continuous improvement of realm. The amount of magic stones consumed during each breakthrough also increased exponentially. This time, it was just a breakthrough from the peak of the middle stage of the Demon General realm to the late stage.
It only cost 10 million low-grade magic stones, and Lu Chen expected to accumulate it to Dzogchen through later cultivation. Another 20 million low-grade magic stones are needed, plus the 80 million budget required to break through to the sub-demon realm.
This is the amount of 100 million low-grade magic stones, of course if you practice ordinary techniques. The consumption may be reduced ten times, but Chase Lu doesn't want that kind of high-end goods. Lu Chen would earn even one billion, let alone one hundred million.
Now that I have to practice it again, I have to practice the strongest technique.
It took six days to break through, and Lu Chen spent another eight days to consolidate. This retreat ended only three hours before the weapon refining ceremony.
I took a hot bath and changed into a brand new purple robe. Lu Chen walked out of the courtyard two hours later and saw him standing at the corner of the street. The pretty Wang Qimeng,
I haven't seen him for half a month. Wang Qimeng's face looked a little haggard at this time, and he no longer smiled when he saw Lu Chen. There was still a hint of sadness in his eyes, which made Lu Chen even more dizzy.
Fortunately, Wang Zhi was standing next to her, otherwise Lu Chen wouldn't know what to do.
It wasn't Chase Lu who was indecisive, or Chen Lu who was putting on airs. It's just that he is surrounded by enemies from the demonic world in front and behind. It was difficult for Lu Chen to calm down and accept a new relationship when he was alone.
If there was no threat from enemies, Lu Chen might consider accepting Wang Qimeng's feelings. After all, who doesn’t like beautiful women?
Even if it is a harem of three thousand. As long as you like her, that's fine, but in the current crisis-ridden situation, Lu Chen doesn't have the heart to mess around with women anymore.
It can only be said that Wang Qimeng met the right person at the wrong time.
Although Wang Zhi was talking to Lu Chen, he noticed his apprentice's sadness from the corner of his eyes. It's just an emotional matter, no one else can interfere.
Although Wang Qimeng was encouraged to move forward bravely, Lu Chen was indifferent. He himself also had a headache, so he couldn't force Lu Chen to accept his disciple.
From the building complex, come to the central square. Today, the place is bustling with people. There is a huge platform in the center, and every ten meters on the platform, there is a transparent array mask.
There is a refining tank in the light mask, and there is earth fire burning in the tank. There is a shelf next to the refining tank, but there is nothing on it now.
The platform is the contestants and the status of the weapon refining competition. There are stepped stands all around. The higher you go up, the more decorated they become, while the lower you go down, the more shabby and crowded they become.
On the ninety-ninth floor, there are no longer separate tables, chairs, and sofas. Instead, there were huge viewing rooms. Because of the formation obstruction, it was impossible to see the decoration inside clearly.
At this time, everyone in the crowd in front has a seat number in their hand. Entering through the ticket gate, you will be directed to your seat by the disciple in charge of reception.
And some of the equipment masters holding the number plates participating in the competition were like Lu Chen's hands. Under the leadership of the receptionist, they all walked onto the platform. Then according to the response between the number plate in his hand and the array mask on the platform, he walked into each mask.
It was going on in a messy but chaotic manner, just when it was about to be Lu Chen's turn. Suddenly Lu Chen felt someone tight, and his body moved casually. Then I saw a small figure and almost fell to the ground.
I saw a cute girl of seven or eight years old, wearing an eye-catching earth princess dress. He pouted his lips and looked at himself with an angry expression.
Then there was a charming and picturesque woman wearing the same princess dress. When he appeared next to the girl, everyone around him was stunned. The older one and the younger one are attracted like witches in colorful clothes, and the men's eyes are full of admiration. Women are envious and jealous.
"Smelly brother, what are you hiding from?"
"Brother Lu, long time no see!"
Wang Zhi and Wang Qimeng, who were standing next to Lu Chen, heard the names of two beauties, one big and one small. Suddenly he looked at Lu Chen in astonishment, and Lu Chen also had a confused look on his face.
These two people are clearly Su Yurong and Su Panpan. They came to watch the ceremony with the elders of the Demon Sect today. I just didn’t expect that before entering the venue,
I met a familiar figure from behind. So Gu Panpan pounced towards that figure under the gaze of many elders.
Then I heard Su Yurong's words, which shocked the elders of Qianhuan Sect. He immediately knew that the handsome and extraordinary man in front of him was the handsome big brother that Su Panpan had often talked about in the past month.
