Chapter 329: Testing one’s will, rift between uncle and nephew, frightening dark night, three sons shouting in unison
"Uncle Master, after we return to Mount Tai this time, we really won't come out again?"
After dinner, Lei Zhen was in the room and asked about Ling Xuzi.
"Hey, why are you still out here? Now that senior brother is dead, our hearts should be at ease."
Ling Xuzi sighed.
"Uncle Master, forgive my nephew for speaking frankly. After returning to the mountain, who should be the leader?"
Lei Zhen stared at Ling Xuzi, waiting for his answer.
"Haha, our Taishan sect has deep roots and there are always people with both ability and political integrity who can take on such a big responsibility!"
Ling Xuzi smiled.
This matter has really been bothering him for a few days. According to what his senior brother said at the time, he seemed to have the intention of letting him take charge of the sect. However, hearing Lei Zhen's tone, I'm afraid he was not convinced.
"Huh, Uncle Master, now that Master has passed away, who else among Taishan's disciples can be more noble than you? Could it be possible, why not dig out our Master?"
Lei Zhen snorted coldly, with some anger in his words.
"Haha, nephew, uncle, I have always been lazy and of low ability. I don't dare to covet the position of head!"
After all, Ling Xuzi is the manager of the Taishan Reclining Buddha Tower, and his ability to observe words and emotions is better than ordinary people. Seeing Lei Zhen's unkind tone, how could he dare to confront Lei Zhen, thinking that he was injured?
"hey-hey!"
Yun Kai on the side suddenly laughed at this moment.
Obviously, he didn't believe Ling Xuzi's words.
"Haha, what kind of care are we taking! Nephew, please rest first. We have to rush tomorrow!"
Seeing Yun Kai's behavior, Ling Xuzi reacted quickly and laughed twice, trying to ease the tension in the room.
"Haha, okay, rest first, rest first."
Lei Zhen said nothing more and turned around to sit on his couch.
For safety reasons, the three of them lived in the same room along the way so that they could take care of each other. However, after the conversation just now, they inevitably had their own hidden agendas and became wary of each other.
…
The night gradually became deeper.
In the darkness, a figure flashed into the inn extremely quickly.
Meow--
A cat meow was heard immediately.
Inside the inn, it was still quiet, as if a cat meowing could not disturb anyone.
The door opened gently.
"who?"
The first person to notice someone entering the room was Lei Zhen.
So, without thinking, he jumped up and struck him with a palm.
The room was very cramped, but the man's movement skills were truly extraordinary. Even in the darkness, he could still identify his position by listening to the wind, and skillfully avoided the lightning strike.
"Who are you?!"
Lei Zhen shouted angrily.
He just used his palm and didn't even touch the person's hair. This shows that this person's kung fu is really very high.
His drink naturally woke up Yun Kai and Ling Xuzi. The two quickly sat up and crossed their palms. However, their injuries were not healed, so they were probably just for show.
Hey!
At this time, I saw a fire folding light in the dark. In the light of the fire, a familiar person closed the door with his backhand and showed a smile.
"Leader Liu!"
The three of them couldn't help but scream in unison.
"Shh-"
Liu Shaonan raised his index finger and put it to his mouth, signaling the three of them not to panic.
"Why did Leader Liu come to Jiangnan?"
Lei Zhen was especially surprised. Didn't Liu Shaonan go to Xiangyang to assassinate King Ping?
"There's no need to talk about this. I just want to ask, do the three of you still have the honor to meet Prince Jing after being defeated in Jiangnan?"
Liu Shaonan's face turned cold and he asked sharply.
"this……"
Ling Xuzi hesitated first.
Lei Zhen and Yun Kai looked at each other in confusion. They both knew that Liu Shaonan was a popular figure around Prince Jing. Now that their master was gone, they felt somewhat weak.
"Ling Xuzi, do you still want to return to your chivalrous ways?"
Liu Shaonan stared at Ling Xuzi with a chill in his eyes.
