C250 Negotiation
Old Master Zhang gave Shangguan Zhongxia a look, then walked over to Lee Shaoyu and Hsingyue Qing. He crouched down and checked Lee Shaoyu's condition, then casually set up an energy barrier in this small area, isolating him from the outside world.
"Grandpa Zhang, I'm fine, I'm just a little exhausted..."
Lee Shaoyu tried to stand up, but he could not muster any strength. In the end, he sat on the ground helplessly.
"Why are you so weak? What kind of forbidden technique did you use?"
Old Master Zhang checked Lee Shaoyu's body and said with a frown. He found that there was no energy in Lee Shaoyu's body. He was no better than an ordinary person.
"I only used one Pupil Technique and it became like this. I didn't expect the side effects to be so strong."
Lee Shaoyu shook his head helplessly. He was weaker than he was after using the dragon transformation art. He didn't expect that he would need to pay such a price for using the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Once he couldn't kill the enemy, he would become a meat on the chopping block. He would be at his mercy and wouldn't be able to resist at all.
"Pupil Technique? Could it be the Pupil Technique of the Tianyun Clan?"
Old Master Zhang instantly guessed a lot of things, because he knew who Lee Shaoyu's parents were. He also knew everything about Lee Shaoyu's parents.
"That's right."
Lee Shaoyu nodded slightly. He didn't need to hide anything from Old Master Zhang.
"Alright, let's not talk about this. Who else knows about your Pupil Technique?"
Old Master Zhang nodded and asked Lee Shaoyu.
"I only used it to deal with the old man with the broken arm. At that time, he was the only one here."
Lee Shaoyu pointed at Wei Changzai, who was healing himself.
"Alright," Wei Changzai said. "I'll take care of it."
A cold light flashed across Old Master Zhang's eyes. The way he looked at Wei Changzai became colder and colder. This was a great secret, and Old Master Zhang would never allow Wei Changzai to spread it.
"Old man Shangguan, I need to discuss something with you."
Old Master Zhang placed Lee Shaoyu next to Hsingyue Qing and asked her to take care of Lee Shaoyu. Then, he came to Shangguan Zhongxia's side.
"Old man Zhang, why are you in such a hurry?"
Shangguan Zhongxia looked at Lee Shaoyu and said to Old Master Zhang.
"Let me ask you first. Do you still remember the kindness of the old manor lord?"
Old Master Zhang suddenly became serious and said to Shangguan Zhongxia.
"Old Manor Master Li has given me a new life. I will never forget it in my life."
Shangguan Zhongxia saw Old Master Zhang's expression and seemed to have sensed the seriousness of the matter. He then said seriously.
"Then, if I want to protect this young man, with your status and power in Xuandao Sect, it shouldn't be difficult for me."
Old Master Zhang said in a deep voice.
"You are so concerned about this young man. Could it be that he is your illegitimate son?"
Shangguan Zhongxia showed a surprised expression and said to Old Master Zhang.
"You old fool. I'm talking business with you. Tell me if you can do it."
Old Master Zhang said to Shangguan Zhongxia in a deep voice. His tone suddenly turned cold.
"Yes, of course. After all, I was the one who gave the order to capture this young man."
Shangguan Zhongxia saw that Old Master Zhang was really angry and said hurriedly. Clearly, he was still very afraid of Old Master Zhang.
"You gave the order? Why did you arrest him?"
Old Master Zhang asked Shangguan Zhongxia with a puzzled expression.
"This kid called Lee Shaoyu has obtained the inheritance of the Meteorite Sword master. You should know the legend of the Meteorite Sword master, right? He is a good friend of the Grandmaster Puppet of the Sky-rank. " According to the legend, before his good friend died, he handed over his life's inheritance to the Meteorite Sword Master. He wanted the Meteorite Sword Master to help him find a successor. However, before the Meteorite Sword Master could help him find a successor, he had also fallen. Therefore, the inheritance of this Grandmaster Puppet was probably hidden in the burial ground of the Meteorite Sword Master. You know that I have always liked to study the Dao of Puppets in my life. "As for how important the inheritance of this Grandmaster is to me, you should understand, right?"
Shangguan Zhongxia's eyes were glowing when he talked about the Dao of Puppets. It was obvious that this man valued the Dao of Puppets so much that he was obsessed with it.
"I see. It seems like your obsession with the Dao of Puppets hasn't decreased at all these years. Otherwise, we might be the most solid comrades now."
Old Master Zhang nodded slightly with a look of realization. He knew Shangguan Zhongxia very well. If it wasn't for his obsession with the Dao of Puppets, Shangguan Zhongxia wouldn't have entered the Xuandao Sect resolutely and obtained today's achievements and status.
"Old man Zhang, don't worry. Since you have come to plead for this kid, I naturally won't make things difficult for him. However, I want to know how many inheritances it has obtained. You should be able to help me with this."
Shangguan Zhongxia put on a shameless look and directly grabbed Old Master Zhang's arm and shook it. He looked like a child who had seen his beloved toy.
"Alright, I can ask for you, but I can't guarantee that you have one. This will depend on your luck. According to what I know, you have captured quite a number of Meteorite Swords that have obtained the inheritance of the Meteorite Sword Master over the years. However, from the looks of it, you seem to have obtained nothing."
Old Master Zhang looked at Shangguan Zhongxia and said helplessly in the end.
"Speaking of this, none of these people have actually obtained any information related to the inheritance of the Puppet Master. It's just that I'm not willing to give up on this hope. This is my only hope. Back then, the Xuandao Sect spent a lot of effort to transform the burial ground of the Meteorite Sword Master into a secret realm. It was all for the sake of obtaining the inheritance of this Puppet Grandmaster one day."
Shangguan Zhongxia said to Old Master Zhang in a deep voice.
I think it's because you don't want to give up. Those old men of the Xuandao Sect probably have long since given up hope. "
Old Master Zhang rolled his eyes at Shangguan Zhongxia and said.
"I didn't expect you to know me so well after so many years."
Shangguan Zhongxia blushed and said with a dry cough.
"Alright, I'll ask for you."
Old Master Zhang didn't continue teasing Shangguan Zhongxia. Instead, he walked towards Lee Shaoyu with Shangguan Zhongxia and told him what Shangguan Zhongxia was thinking.
"No wonder these people kept staring at me. So that's the reason. However, I really did not get the inheritance of any Puppet Grandmaster. I only got the sword technique of the Meteorite Sword. However, if I really get the secret technique of the Puppet Grandmaster in the future, I can consider giving it to Master Shangguan."
Lee Shaoyu recalled what Uncle Fu had told him before. Now, he finally understood what it meant. He had really taken the blame for nothing. He had to find Uncle Fu to reason with him in the future.
"Is what you said true? You're not lying to me, are you?"
Shangguan Zhongxia was extremely excited when he heard Lee Shaoyu's words. He stared at Lee Shaoyu and said.
"Master, do you think I need to lie to you?"
Lee Shaoyu shrugged and said. Lee Shaoyu had indeed felt Shangguan Zhongxia's obsession with the Dao of Puppets. This kind of person had spent his whole life researching puppets. Lee Shaoyu admired him from the bottom of his heart. Lee Shaoyu was not good at the Dao of Puppets. If it really existed, he could give it to Shangguan Zhongxia.
"Good, good. Since old man Zhang can protect you, I believe you are a man of your word. I will thank you first."
Shangguan Zhongxia was incomparably excited. He bowed deeply to Lee Shaoyu, a junior. It was enough to show that Shangguan Zhongxia truly loved this Dao and didn't deliberately put on an act.
"Old Master Shangguan, you can't do it. I can't accept this young man.".................. * Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Lee Shaoyu tried to stop him with all his might. How could he not have any strength left in his body? He couldn't do anything, so he could only hastily say something to stop him.
"Speaking of which, what is your relationship with Old Man Zhang? How could you let Old Man Zhang come all the way here to protect you?"
Shangguan Zhongxia looked at Lee Shaoyu and then Old Master Zhang, trying to find something in common between the two of them.
"Alright, old man, don't look at him. This Lee Shaoyu is actually a child of one of my nephews. You know I haven't married in my life, and I don't have many relatives. " I treat this child as my own grandson, so of course I will protect him with all my strength. "
Before Lee Shaoyu could reply, Old Master Zhang spoke first, afraid that Lee Shaoyu would reveal something that he shouldn't have.
"Then why don't you let this child go to Sword-management Villa? Why did he come to Dongxuan State to suffer?"
Shangguan Zhongxia looked at Old Master Zhang suspiciously, because he had already investigated Lee Shaoyu's past. It was impossible for him to have anything to do with the people of Sword-management Villa.
"That's a long story. My nephew had a good relationship with the young master. Later on, something happened to the young master. The second young master took over the Sword-management Villa, and my nephew left the Sword-management Villa. If it wasn't for the fact that Yu had encountered a crisis that he couldn't solve, he wouldn't have begged me."
Old Master Zhang fabricated Lee Shaoyu's background half-truths and half-truths. What he said was very similar to what he said. He had really fooled Shangguan Zhongxia.
"I see. No wonder. The young master died young. It's really a pity. Ever since the second young master took over the Sword-management Villa, it was no longer as grand as it used to be. Could it be that the Old Manor Lord didn't come out to take care of it? It was rumored that the Old Manor Master had fallen ill due to the matter of the Eldest Young Master, causing his strength to be greatly damaged. Could it be that the rumors are true?
Shangguan Zhongxia said to Old Master Zhang in a low voice.
It is half true and half false. The old master was indeed seriously ill in the past, but he has almost recovered in recent years. However, Master is no longer willing to ask about the matters of the martial world, so he let the second young master do whatever he wants. " However, if something really happens, Master will still come out of the mountain. "
Old Master Zhang said to Shangguan Zhongxia, but Lee Shaoyu could hear a lot of interesting information from it. Old Master Zhang's reservation towards Shangguan Zhongxia proved that the Sword-management Villa had become weaker.
I have to go and see the old master if I have the chance. It has been more than ten years since I last saw him. I really miss him. "
Shangguan Zhongxia said in a low voice.
"You still have the heart. If there is a chance, go and visit the old lord. The fact that I didn't keep you in the past has always been a knot in the old master's heart."
Old Master Zhang also nodded slightly and said.
