Chapter 13 Chapter 10 Family Banquet Conflict

The next day, Leo didn't come to me, and I was happy to stay in the room and study the two dark energy cores I had newly condensed.But my puppy wolf and Fengrou's golden monkey pet were released to serve as guards for Duguqi and Bata. Although there are still dark energy cores of the two elements of earth and water that have not been condensed, I feel that the control of the dark energy in the body is more satisfactory.The two cores are operating spontaneously all the time, and each rotation will add a trace of dark energy to the dantian. Although it is not much, it is expensive and durable.

In the afternoon, Leo appeared and invited Fengrou and I to their family dinner at night.Fengrou declined politely: "The family banquet is all your family members, so it's inconvenient for me and Lanhu to attend." Looking at the leisurely and elegant Feng Rou, I knew that the reason was actually that she didn't like too much interpersonal communication, which didn't fit her free and easy personality, so I said, "If you can, please help us refuse." Leo smiled wryly: "Lan Hu, I'm afraid you really deserve to be there. Rex is back." I was taken aback, I didn't expect Rex to come back so soon, I said: "It seems that there is trouble." Regardless of whether Rex knew that Dugu Qi was caught by me before, he would definitely know this once he came back. Who knows what he'll do about it.

Leo also said: "Yeah, what a big trouble. He brought back a two-headed dog. I told you that this is the symbol of our family, and it is on our family emblem. Many people Everyone was very happy to see the two-headed dog, and regarded the appearance of the two-headed dog as a sign of prosperity in the family." I said: "Since that's the case, it seems that Rex hasn't caused any major trouble for you." Leo said: "Which members of the current family's inner circle don't know that I participated in the World War I and made great contributions to sealing the Fire Crow? But he returned with such a high profile, and he came back as a member of the new alliance. It is very likely that it will cause conflicts within the family, which makes my father very unhappy. However, there is still a family banquet, and my father specially sent me to invite the two of you to the dinner together."

I said: "Could it be that your father wants to use us to show your family members the position. The Lei family is on the opposite side of the new alliance." Leo Zan said: "That's right, when my father asked me to invite you, he already revealed this to me. Rex already had some influence in the family. He, a martial arts genius, is very popular among the younger generation of our family. He has a strong appeal. This time he returned with a high-profile two-headed dog, and he played very beautifully. At least many people think that he is the lucky star of our family. Lanhu, you are the only one in the new Only a well-known person who has the reputation of a genius among humans and ancient humans can suppress his limelight."

I said: "I'm afraid your father is also worried that he will compete with you for the position of the first heir after his high-profile appearance?" Leo said with a headache: "I'm a hedonist. Taking the position of the first heir of the family means sacrificing my ideals for the family, so I'm not keen on this position, but Rex made it clear that there is no management at all. The family's talent, and likes to go its own way, if he is allowed to ascend to the position of Patriarch, the interests of the family will definitely be damaged." "Since you can see it, it means that other people will also see it." Feng Ju said.

Leo explained: "But my uncle supports him, which makes many people have to support him for his sake, and many ignorant young people also support him. They think that as long as they have a high level of cultivation, they can fight and get everything done. , Today's young people really have no brains." Feng Rou pursed her lips and smiled, I spread my hands and said, "It seems that we are not very old." Rex came back with a high profile, and after receiving a warm welcome, he placed Dou Lao, Mi Fang and a few followers arranged by the new alliance around him.Although returning to the family, he feels like a master, but Rex still maintains a high respect for Doulao and Mi Fang, two figures that even Dugu Ba has to pay a certain amount of respect to.

After all, if you want to complete the task, these two strong men are worth relying on. Although juniors like Rex are nothing in the hearts of Dou Lao and Mi Fang, the two parties have a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship. Although they are not Rex's subordinates, in the castle of the Lei family, they still have to give him Some face. Therefore, the two had no objection to Rex's arrangement. Mi Fang just waved his hand to indicate that Rex could leave. Dou Lao smiled and showed his yellow teeth and said, "Remember to get some good beef for me." Send me my two-headed dog, and my little one will just take a bite."

The Lei family has never been short of beef or something: firstly, this place is suitable for grazing, so there are a lot of cattle and sheep; secondly, there is a dog farm at home, so they can't run out of meat at any time. Rex found someone to give some instructions, and then walked straight to a single-family villa next to the dog farm.Rex's uncle, Lei Baige's younger brother Lei Bai, lives in this villa. Rex came to the study in the villa with ease, and all the servants he met along the way knew the young master of the Lei family, and they all greeted him respectfully and stepped aside.

In the room, the firewood in the fireplace was burning vigorously, and Reby was sitting at the desk with a pipe in his mouth, intently flipping through a book. "Hey, dear uncle." Rex opened his arms as he walked. Rebai looked up and saw Rex, and immediately stood up with a smile on his face, and hugged Rex fiercely. "Uncle, what are you reading?" Rex casually picked up the book Rebay was reading just now. There was a two-headed dog printed on the cover of the book, which looked like a book tracing the origin of the family logo. "Sit down." Ray said. Reba looked into Rex's eyes and said earnestly: "Son, your father was very upset that you joined the new alliance. You must know that the main purpose of the new alliance is to make new humans the masters of the earth and enslave all humans." Ancient humans. New humans are the masters of the future earth, I firmly believe in this, but this requires a process, and they are too extreme."

Rex's face was gloomy, and he said unhappily: "Uncle, why do you even oppose me? Why do your ideas always remain the same? The new alliance is also changing all the time. Aren't they also cooperating with the Western Federation government now? Western Federation Isn’t the government ruled by ancient humans!” Lei Bai softened his tone and said: "The reputation of the new alliance is not good, and your father's opinion is not so easy to change. Do you want to stay in the new alliance for the rest of your life?" "Hmph!" Rex said dissatisfiedly, "Father is too rigid, he is no longer suitable to be the helm of the family."

"Shut up." Lei Bai looked around, as if he was afraid of being overheard by others, and lowered his voice, "Could it be that you came back this time to grab a seat?" The so-called seat is naturally the seat of the patriarch of the family.Rex said: "I have a very high status in the new alliance, why do I need to grab this position! But Leo, a guy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, can be the first heir, so why can't I? Am I better than him? Is it bad?" Lei Bai smiled and said: "If you had this kind of heart, Leo would not have become the first successor so smoothly. But if you can use the power of the new alliance, and I support you, maybe you can still be the first successor." How high is your status in the new alliance?" The focus of Rex's attention is not on the seat of the family, what he wants now is to save Duguqi in order to gain more powerful power.Rex proudly said: "The young leader of the new alliance is my master." Lei Bai said pleasantly: "There is such a relationship. From this point of view, your joining the new alliance may be more beneficial than harmful to the family." "Uncle, don't be too happy." Rex said, "My master is still in the hands of Leo's friend." "Yes, I forgot about that." Lei Bai said with a serious face, "That ancient demon has been sealed by Leo and the others, Duguqi is just an ordinary person now, even if he is released, he will not treat him What is the impact of human beings? This is an opportunity for us and the whole family. If we can save Duguqi and use it as a bargaining chip, we can get a lot of benefits from the new alliance. But don’t worry, since they are currently all In the castle, we have a great advantage, but Lanhu is very powerful, and he is also Leo's friend, so we have to be careful." Rex sneered and said, "Although Lanhu is powerful, I also brought back two very powerful guys from the new alliance. Coupled with our family's own force, I don't believe that Lanhu can take Duguqi away." Lei Bai said: "Don't be impatient, step by step, you must first convince your father to support us, so that we can have greater confidence." Rex asked anxiously: "Will Lan Hu stay with us forever? Maybe they will leave tomorrow, this must be done quickly." Lei Bai nodded thoughtfully, just like doing business, opportunities are always fleeting, if you can't seize them in time, you will regret it. Driven by interests, businessmen will always make some impulsive decisions while ignoring the danger behind the interests. During the dinner, Fengrou and I came to the main hall. The fireplace in the hall was billowing with heat, and soothing music was flowing in the crowd.There are already dozens of people in the hall, many of whom are young people I have never seen before. The waiter provided drinks and drinks, and some pastries and fruits were placed on the table for the guests to choose at will. As soon as Fengrou and I walked in, Leo saw it and walked towards us quickly. I saw Leo's face was a little gloomy, and said, "You don't seem to be very interested." Leo sighed and said, "Originally there were only a dozen people attending the family banquet. Unexpectedly, my uncle called almost all the clan members within three generations, which caught us by surprise. Seeing those young people around Rex Is it, uncle invited me here." I looked in the direction indicated by Leo, and I saw Rex, who was dressed in formal attire, chatting passionately with a large group of young people.Rex has a tough appearance, but also has a bit of bearing, standing out from the crowd is a bit like standing out from the crowd. I retracted my gaze and said with a chuckle, "Are you jealous that Rex stole your limelight?" Leo blushed, and didn't deny it, but complained: "Rex is talented in martial arts, and he has indeed worked hard in this area, but I can't deny my usual hard work. Now everyone They all thought that I was lucky to be the number one heir of the family when I picked up the divine sword that fell from the sky." I said: "This kind of statement is really biased. Excalibur does not just recognize a person as the master. If you, the master, do not have this qualification, Excalibur will not agree." The three of us were chatting, and I felt footsteps coming towards us. I looked up and saw Rex walking over surrounded by young people. Rex's stern face was full of hostility towards me. The young people seemed to be aware that a conflict would break out between Rex and Leo. Seeing Rex approaching on his own initiative, they also followed him closely, with an expression on their faces that they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic. Both men and women were excited about the impending conflict. Rex narrowed his eyes, reached out and grabbed two glasses of wine from the waiter's tray passing by, and said in a low voice: "Lan Hu, I'm toasting you a glass of wine, you have to take it, if you don't do it well Don't give me face!" I didn't expect Rex to be so impatient, and he targeted me as soon as he came up.I watched him wave his hand and throw the crystal glass of wine over seven or eight meters away. The crystal cup is as thin as a cicada's wings. When people hold it, they are afraid that it will be crushed if they use too much force. At this moment, Rex's earth-type dark energy is attached to it. The crystal cup spins forward rapidly, and the tempting wine in the cup follows. Swirl to create a vortex in the wine glass. At such a fast speed, I am afraid that as soon as the wine glass is caught by hand, the rotating wine in the glass will smash the wine glass due to the effect of inertia. While I was analyzing the flying situation of the wine glass, I still had time to take a look at the young people behind Rex. Every young man reacted differently due to excitement, some opened their mouths slightly, some opened their eyes wide, some flushed cheeks. In their eyes, Rex's irascibility and aggressiveness have full of idol-like charm. Seeing that the wine glass holding the bright red wine that had already spun halfway out was about to reach me, I mobilized the wind element dark energy core in my body. With the existence of the dark energy core of the wind system, mobilizing the dark energy of the wind system will save me a time to perform the "nine bends and eighteen bends" exercises and transform dark energy. Almost in a blink of an eye, the dark energy of the wind element has been stimulated. I reached out and held it, and the invisible dark energy of the wind element was released from my hand. The rapidly spinning crystal cup seemed to have encountered an invisible wall and stopped, but it was still suspended in the air in my hand and spinning rapidly, but it did not move forward. Most of the wine that flew out was like a dancer with a slender waist, and the crystal glass was also turning with the rotation, but it just couldn't fall out. My hand moved left and right in the air twice, and the crystal cup moved accordingly like an obedient elf. Seeing the stunned young people behind Rex, I gently held the crystal cup, took a sip and said, "Thank you." It doesn't require much strength to catch the crystal cup thrown by Rex violently, but it shows an extraordinary ability to control dark energy. I gave Rex a little smack, and it helped keep him contained. Suddenly, a needle-like gaze landed on my face, I was startled, turned my head to look, and saw a short and thin old man in the crowd grinning at me, with gloomy and fierce eyes like a tiger wolf. In my mind, I have never seen such an old man. Rex's low-pitched roar suddenly came from my ear, I turned around and saw Rex rushing towards me like a bull, with strong earth-type dark energy rays constantly emerging from his body. Rex clenched his fist and blasted at me. This seemingly straight punch is also a kind of knight technique, which can explode with the most powerful destructive power in the shortest distance, and has several different changes. Rex's violent dark energy fluctuations made many people in the hall notice this side. Leo's father also showed anger when he saw the situation here, but no one could stop him in time. When the ancient knights fought with the army, they usually only had one chance to attack. Therefore, the combat techniques they developed were to abandon everything to pursue the greatest destructive power, and strive to kill the enemy within one blow.In the long years that followed, the knights continued to supplement and improve the knight skills, which also made it a combat skill full of destructive power and destructive power while possessing certain simple skills but very practical. Rex's eyes were filled with an indomitable and tragic momentum. In my eyes, this is not worth mentioning. Rex has never been on the battlefield. As a modern nobleman, he has not experienced the test of life and death battles. Forget it, in front of a top expert, it will be like a soap bubble exposed to the sun, and it will burst when touched. There was a trace of hesitation in Leo's eyes, as if he wanted to help me, but Fengrou was full of confidence in me, standing beside me calmly, without even moving the corner of his clothes. I poured the wine from the crystal glass over to Rex. A young guy who thinks he is handsome always pays attention to his appearance.When Rex saw me pouring the wine on him, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, and his speed slowed down a bit. I shook my head and said to myself: "Your strength is enough, but in terms of fighting, you are still too young. Fighting has never been about winning with strength. Fighting skills, fighting tenacity and fighting will are the decisive factors." The key to winning or losing a battle." I took a step forward, dodged to avoid his fist, came in front of him, bumped my shoulder forward, and immediately disintegrated his fierce attack. Rex had a look of shame and anger on his face, he swung his arm, nimble like a poisonous snake, and hit my temple from the side of my body. Earth-type dark energy is the best defense. Although my collision just now can knock a bear out and throw a few somersaults, it is nothing to him. The entire right arm that he struck was exposed like a stone. I calmly manipulated the dark energy core of the wind system, and my body was full of ease and calmness as it swayed with the wind.I stretched out my hand and pressed, driven by the dark energy of the wind system, my five fingers arrived first, and pressed on his arm, so that he had no chance to dodge. As soon as the wind-type dark energy was urged, it defeated the earth-type dark energy attached to his arm.Rex yelled, and at the same time he slammed at me with his left hand, as if he was unwilling to fail. I also reached out and easily grabbed his left arm.I activated the dark energy core of the wind system, and this small core of power immediately rotated rapidly. Two whirlwinds visible to the naked eye formed in my hands and were fixed at the joints of his arms. Then I threw two more whirlwinds and fixed them on his knees.I withdrew my hand and walked back calmly, but Rex was fixed in place by the whirlwind I condensed with the dark energy of the wind system. The formation of the whirlwind is convection due to changes in air pressure, but obviously, there will be no air pressure changes in the hall, so to maintain the whirlwind from dissipating, it is necessary to continuously output dark energy. Rex's carelessness was easily controlled by me, his eyes were fixed on me, and he almost breathed fire. If he was prepared, it would not be so easy to control him so easily.However, the group of young men from the Lei family behind him didn't know the mystery. They only saw their idol suddenly attack, aggressive and extremely sturdy, but they were controlled within a face-to-face, and their limbs were pulled apart. , formed a "big" font and was fixed there, unable to advance or retreat, as much as possible to lose face. Some young people who used to be Rex as their idol moved quietly outside, as if they didn't want to lose face with him, and they looked at me with a little more awe. Rex's mess made Leiboge lose face, but he couldn't see his son being fixed there by me like this, so Leiboge came to me to intercede for Rex. I was waiting for Leiboge to come over. After all, with such an impulsive and irritable character like Rex, who knows if he will continue to attack me after I put him down.Now that Lei Baige was standing beside me, he naturally didn't dare to make another move, so as soon as Lei Baige said that, I put Rex down. Rex gave me a bitter look, turned and left without saying anything. Lei Baige's face was extremely ugly, I was shocked, and planned to leave here after the banquet.Rex is coming fiercely, and the strength of the old man who was obviously full of hostility to me just now is also unpredictable. If Lei Baige turns his face, Fengrou and I will be trapped here, but the sealing tripod must not be lost, or Get out of here early. The banquet has some inexplicable meaning because of Rex's impulsiveness. Leo said: "Uncle recruited these young people who admire Rex, and originally wanted to support Rex, but I didn't expect that you would make Rex feel ashamed instead." I said: "Don't be too happy, Rex came back suddenly, I'm afraid it's for Duguqi, or for the seal tripod. Let's be careful, please help me to pay attention to what Rex brought back Among those people, I am afraid there are experts from the new alliance." Leo said: "Don't worry, with me here, he won't be able to make any big waves. After all, I am now the number one heir, and my father is also on my side. If Rex doesn't know how to play, he will make trouble again." , I will suggest that father give him some punishment."
