Chapter 698 Another Twist and Turn
Lu Yu didn't believe in the other party's character, but he had no better choice.
If the other party really wanted to break his promise, the worst that could happen was a falling out, which was not much different from continuing to fight, so he might as well just choose to trust the other party once.
Fortunately, the other party didn't plan to play tricks, and soon the elders followed Lu Yu's request and first brought Luo Shuhui, Bi Qiuxia, Yu Xiaoyu, and Qi Xiaolan here.
The four people were originally doing hard labor at the bottom of the seabed, and were suddenly called over. Seeing so many elders standing in the mess, they couldn't help but be shocked. They thought something big had happened. It wasn't until they saw Ling Yufei's figure that they completely let go of their worries, and their faces instantly showed ecstasy.
"Sister Fei! Why are you here? Are you okay?"
The four people exclaimed, and at the same time flew to Ling Yufei, hugging, touching, and pinching her.
"Oh, it's really Sister Fei!"
"We are not dreaming!"
"Sister Fei, you have lost weight..."
"Wow, I thought I would never see Sister Fei again! Sister Fei, let me touch you again..."
Ling Yufei was also very excited at first, but seeing the four good sisters behave like this, she couldn't help but laugh and cry, and her face was full of embarrassment.
"Okay, stop messing around..." Ling Yufei had to put on the big sister's posture again, "In fact, we can reunite again this time, thanks to Junior Brother Lu Yu..."
"Junior Brother Lu Yu?"
"Ah? This person is Junior Brother Lu Yu?"
"I didn't expect Junior Brother Lu Yu to have reached the Guihai Realm..."
"Woo woo woo, only a few of us have been treading water..."
"Junior Brother Lu Yu, come, let us take a good look... How did you practice, why did you improve so fast?"
So several women ran to Lu Yu's side again, touching and pinching him without any hesitation. Lu Yu couldn't help but laugh and cry. The image of a strong man that he had finally established collapsed at this moment...
The people in the Bohai Palace opposite couldn't help but look dumbfounded. They didn't expect that this extraordinary Lu Yu would be so humble in front of these female disciples, which made everyone feel mixed.
Especially Xu Bin, the true disciple on the opposite side. Originally, these people were close teammates with him, but he didn't expect that the two sides would eventually become such a position. Recalling the bits and pieces of the past, he couldn't help but feel at a loss and hesitant.
After a long time of commotion, Ling Yufei stopped a few people, asked them to gather around her, and told them the specific situation they were facing at the moment.
After hearing this, they unexpectedly did not show surprise, but indignant expressions:
"We have heard about Sister Fei being expelled from Bohai Palace. We were extremely disappointed with the outcome at that time. Unfortunately, we are powerless and cannot change the overall situation..."
"Since Sister Fei has been expelled from Bohai Palace, what is there for us to be attached to as disciples of Bohai Palace?"
"Where Sister Fei goes in the future, we will follow her... Where Sister Fei is, it is considered home..."
"Yes, Junior Brother Lu, if you want to take Sister Fei away today, please take us with you!"
...
The four girls spoke in unison, and all showed their willingness to stand together with Ling Yufei.
Lu Yu smiled slightly, looked at the elder across from him and said, "Elder, it is said that the decree to remove Senior Sister Ling Yufei from Bohai Palace was issued by you? I wonder what you think about this matter now? Perhaps, you need to issue a few more decrees..."
The elder's face was as calm as an ancient well, and he said lightly: "Palace Master Li is the master of Bohai Palace. Although the decree was indeed issued by me, it was also approved by Palace Master Li... How to deal with this matter still needs to be decided by the master of Bohai Palace!"
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel moved when he heard this.
Although the elder's tone was calm, he always felt that the other party's words were a bit strange, especially when he mentioned the term "Master of Bohai Palace", it seemed to have a hint of strange emotions. It seems that the relationship between the elder and Palace Master Li does not seem to be harmonious. I don't know if this is his illusion...
But no matter what, Lu Yu has made up his mind in his heart. He doesn't care whether Bohai Palace releases people or not. He will take these people away this time.
Not long after, the confiscated items were also brought over.
A steward of Bohai Palace brought a Qiankun bag to the crowd.
"The bag contains the items that were confiscated from Ling Yufei before. Can you check for yourself?"
Lu Yu winked at Ling Yufei, signaling her to come and check it herself.
Ling Yufei walked forward, opened the Qiankun bag, and quickly checked it. Then she couldn't help showing a surprised look, turned around and looked at Lu Yu and said: "Everything else is there, but the Feihong Sword is missing..."
Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried forward, opened the Qiankun bag and checked it himself. Sure enough, there were all kinds of things inside, but the Feihong Sword was missing.
Lu Yu immediately threw the Qiankun bag back to the other party and asked, "Where is the Feihong Sword?"
The deacon was stunned and said blankly, "What Feihong Sword? Everything is here!"
Lu Yu ignored him and turned to the elder, his eyes flashing like lightning: "Elder, what do you mean?"
"The Feihong Sword was given to Senior Sister Ling Yufei by me when we parted on the battlefield of Tianyu. I believe many disciples of Bohai Palace have seen this sword. Although it is not a top-level magic weapon, it has extraordinary significance to me..."
"Now this sword is missing in Bohai Palace. I wonder how you explain it?"
The elder was silent, looked at the deacon and said, "Deacon Ding, what's going on?"
"Elder, I don't know either. All the things collected from the warehouse are in this bag..." Deacon Ding said anxiously.
The elder stroked his beard and said, "Since it was collected from the warehouse, there must be a list of deposits. Go check the original deposit slip to see what's going on."
"Yes..." Deacon Ding agreed and hurried away.
The elder looked at Lu Yu and said, "Sir, please be patient. Since I have agreed to your conditions, I will definitely not do anything about this matter. I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation..."
Lu Yu snorted coldly, "I hope so!"
