House arrest
Lu Tianyu's questioning angered Huo Tianying without any surprise.
He looked at Lu Tianyu with a gloomy face, and a murderous intent faintly appeared in his eyes.
If it were someone else, he might be really afraid of Huo Tianying.
After all, he is the head of the Huo family and the lord of Huo Wu City, but unfortunately, he is facing the famous Lu Tianyu!
Lu Tianyu can be calm and composed when facing the powerful Emperor, let alone a mere Huo Tianying.
His face remained unchanged, and he met Huo Tianying's gaze without fear.
The two looked at each other for a while. Finally, Huo Tianying's eyes closed and he smiled faintly: "I heard that fellow Taoist came from southern Xinjiang? I don't know why he ran to my Western Regions?"
"Training!" Lu Tianyu replied two words lightly.
"How can I get it?" Huo Tianying asked.
"Not yet... Lord Huo asked what this is doing." Lu Tianyu asked curiously.
"It is not easy for cultivators to practice. Although your Hengshan Sect is known as the largest sect in the Shura Continent, the usual treatment of ordinary cultivators should not be much better, right? Well, you are visiting my Huo family today, and I can't let you leave empty-handed, someone comes..."
Huo Tianying waved his hand outside the door, and soon several servants from the Huo family walked in.
These Huo family members dragged a plate in their hands and walked to Lu Tianyu and the others. The cover on the plate was lifted up, revealing various cultivation resources such as combat skills, battle tactics, mysterious soldiers, magic weapons, and spirit stones.
Seeing these things, Lu Tianyu's pupils shrank, and his heart felt a little small.
Could it be that Huo Tianying wants to bribe himself with these things?
Sure enough, Huo Tianying said, "I give these things to several fellow Taoists, and I wish them a prosperous cultivation level."
He is sincere.
Lu Tianyu laughed in his heart and said, "I will not receive any reward without merit. What does Lord Huo mean?"
"It's not interesting. I just see that it's not easy for a few fellow Taoists to practice and want to express their feelings. In addition, several fellow Taoists must be tired when they come from southern Xinjiang. Why not stay in the mansion for a few days! I have asked the servants to prepare a room and make sure it's better than the inn on the street! People come and take a few fellow Taoists to the guest room to rest."
Huo Tianying didn't give Lu Tianyu and the others the chance to refuse, and directly attracted several servants from the Huo family.
These Huo family servants are burly and wearing strong suits. You can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary servants.
It seems that Huo Tianying plans to force them to stay here!
Master Wulubatu and his friends subconsciously looked at Lu Tianyu.
Lu Tianyu hesitated for a moment and said lightly: "Since Lord Huo is hard to refuse his kindness, then we should be respectful and obey our orders. Let's stay here for the time being!"
They are very powerful, so naturally they don’t have to worry about how Huo Tianying will treat them after they live here.
On the contrary, if they live here, they can better investigate the collusion between the Huo family and the monsters.
Seeing Lu Tianyu agreeing, Huo Tianying nodded with satisfaction, then waved to the servants: "Take it down!"
Several monks were about to take Lu Tianyu and the others away, but at this moment, a servant came in and reported: "Report to the city lord, a few people came outside, claiming to be monks from the Hengshan Sect of Yanzishan, and want to see several guests."
The servant looked at Lu Tianyu and the others.
Lu Tianyu and others were stunned when they heard this.
A monk from Hengshan Sect in Yanzi Mountain in the Western Regions?
How did they find this place?
Have they seen through their identities?
This is not impossible. I did not deliberately conceal my identity. The Hengshan Sect is not a small sect, so it is normal for a few disciples to appear here.
"Can fellow Taoists know them?" Huo Tianying looked at Lu Tianyu.
"I am a disciple of the Hengshan Sect. After I come here, I should naturally visit the local Hengshan Sect." Lu Tianyu said lightly.
Huo Tianying nodded slightly when he heard this, but did not let a few people outside come in immediately.
Lu Tianyu knew what he was worried about, so he said half-truely: "What are Lord Huo hesitating about? Could it be that they would go back and complain to the senior masters of the Hengshan Sect and say that Lord Huo was under house arrest?"
"Haha, fellow Taoist is really good at joking! Don't say that I didn't have house arrest for you, so what if I was under house arrest? Your Hengshan Sect is big, but it's not big enough for me, Huo family. Let them come in!" Huo Tianying waved his hand.
The servant took the order and left. Lu Tianyu looked at Huo Tianying with a smile, and Huo Tianying also happened to turn his eyes.
When all eyes met, they all saw the coldness in each other's eyes.
...
Huo Tianying was obviously worried that Lu Tianyu and the people in the Hengshan Sect of Yanzishan would say something they shouldn't say.
But in order to show his magnanimity, he did not stop those people from entering the mansion and even gave up the reception room generously.
But when he walked out of the room, he ordered his servants to stay here, listen carefully to Lu Tianyu and the others' conversation, and see if they wanted to be unfavorable to the Huo family.
Lu Tianyu and Master Wulubatu naturally knew this, but ignored it.
After Huo Tianying left, Lu Tianyu set up a sound insulation formation, and then a few people sat back on the chair.
"This Huo Tianying really dares to put us under house arrest here. What a courage!" Kunlun said one after another.
Lu Tianyu smiled faintly when he heard this, "He doesn't know our identity, why don't he dare?"
"Why don't the master let us reveal our identity?" Kunlun said.
According to her intention, she directly showed her identity and then checked whether the Huo family had colluded with monsters. I believe that the Huo family would not dare to say anything.
"Although it can shock Huo Tianying directly, it may not be possible to find out that he colluded with monsters... Collusion with monsters is a serious crime to disrupt the human race. Even if Huo Tianying has the courage to do so, he would not dare to come out openly! If we reveal our identity and then investigate, we may not be able to find out anything." Lu Tianyu said.
"Can't you find out with the master's strength and cultivation?" Kunlun was a little disbelief.
"I am not omnipotent, and it is impossible to discover anything you want. What's more, Huo Tianying is a descendant of Huo Wu. Huo Wu has the ability to repair space channels, which means that his space technique is very powerful. As his descendant, will Huo Tianying's space technique be weak? I don't believe that if he contacted those monsters through space technique, I might not be able to find it." Lu Tianyu said.
He is indeed very powerful, but not omnipotent. There are too many things he cannot do. Moreover, Huo Tianying is not an ordinary monk. Lu Tianyu guessed that he should understand space art.
If Huo Tianying used space techniques to hide those monsters, Lu Tianyu would not be able to find them.
Unless Huo Tianying himself exposes the location of the space technique.
But just thinking about it is impossible.
It would be fine if Huo Tianying didn't know who Lu Tianyu was, if he knew who Lu Tianyu was, he would never have exposed the passage.
Because once it is exposed, he will be dead!
All major sects and seniors will kill him.
Therefore, if Lu Tianyu wants to check whether the Huo family has colluded with the monsters and cause trouble to the human race, he can only carry out the secret.
"Hmph, if he didn't collude with monsters, it would be fine if he would cause trouble to the human race. If he really did this, he would be really not far from death." Kunlun said coldly.
She had no good feelings for Huo Tianying because Huo Tianying's eyes just now were full of lust.
If Lu Tianyu hadn't been there, she would have killed Huo Tianying at that time.
Lu Tianyu couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at Kunlun.
"Boy Lu, what's going on with the monks of Hengshan Sect in Yanzishan? Did you inform them?" asked Master Wulubatu.
"I don't. It's probably because they saw us being brought here by the Huo family and wanted to find out what happened!" Lu Tianyu said with a guess.
"Any of them knows you?" asked Master Wulubatu.
"Maybe!" Lu Tianyu couldn't say it. After all, he was a senior and powerful man, and there were indeed many ordinary disciples who had seen him below.
While speaking, there was a knock on the door outside the door, saying that the disciples of Hengshan Sect had arrived.
Lu Tianyu hurriedly let them in.
"Disciple Yanzishan Hengshan Sect Zhao Qinglong!"
"Xu Ling!"
"Li Tianhong!"
"Song Qingshu!"
"I have met Senior Lu and several Seniors!"
Several disciples of Hengshan Sect came into the room and bowed to each other.
Lu Tianyu nodded and asked them up, then asked, "Do you know me?"
"I am a disciple sent by Hengshan from Donglu. I have met Senior Lu in Hengshan Sect." Zhao Qinglong said.
"I am Senior Sister Tianjiao's junior sister, and my elder brother and Senior Brother Bai Chen are good friends." The girl Xu Ling said frankly.
I see!
Lu Tianyu suddenly realized.
If it was a disciple of Hengshan Sect from Donglu, he had indeed seen him, not to mention that these two people knew Bai Chen and Ren Tianjiao, it would be normal for them to see him.
"You only came here after seeing me on the street?" Lu Tianyu asked.
"We did see Senior Lu on the street, but finally decided to come to find Senior. It was because a casual cultivator named Ye Xiao Zhenren said that Senior was arrested and we came." Zhao Qinglong asked carefully: "Does Senior know him?"
"Ye Xiao Zhenren?" Lu Tianyu frowned: "He told you that I was arrested?"
Zhao Qinglong nodded and said, "But he did not see through his senior's identity, and we did not tell him, and I think he seemed to intend to let us know that the senior was arrested..."
"This old fox."
Zhao Qinglong didn't understand the reason, but Lu Tianyu instantly realized that it must be Ye Xiao Zhenren who wanted to have a conflict with the Huo family, and then let the Hengshan Sect intervene and destroy the Huo family.
In this way, they don’t have to worry about Huo Wucheng being in trouble by monsters.
Although Ye Xiao Zhenren’s starting point is good, it does not prevent Lu Tianyu from falling in favor of him.
After cursing, he asked, "How did you do it?"
"I asked me to go back and report to the head of the Hengshan Sect in Yanzishan. However, I know the identity of my senior, so I naturally don't believe him. If I ask the chief to come, I also guess that the senior may have instructions and prove his identity for him." Zhao Qinglong said in a narrow voice.
"You know how to do things." Lu Tianyu praised, which made Zhao Qinglong thrill.
"Since you are here, I'll ask you a few things..."
