Chapter 505 Taking advantage of the situation
"Master, in your opinion, do you want to send An'er with you today? If there is something in the forest behind the He family, he can warn you from the sidelines."
Ruan Xihe shook his head. "The He family held this competition just to target your Lu family. They knew that Young Master Lu was unconscious, so they were fearless. If they knew that Young Master Lu was awake, they might use some other means."
Jing Lian added: "Because the competition is linked to the position of the head of the five major families."
"For the safety of Young Master Lu, the Lu family would definitely not allow the news of Young Master Lu's coma to be spread, and the He family had already thought of this situation, so the He family held a competition specifically for the Lu family."
"In this way, if the Lu family does not participate, the people will definitely pay attention to the reason for not participating. The He family will have a reason to investigate. If you participate, the first place will be handed over. Of course, not long after the success, I believe the He family will also spread the news that Young Master Lu is in a coma."
Ruan Xihe nodded, "That's right."
"Great." Mo Yuan pondered, "If this is the case, no matter whether the Lu family participates in the competition or not, the He family will be the one that benefits in the end. They want to force the Lu family into a desperate situation, but why are they so confident?"
"Isn't the confidence obvious?" Jimo Qianyi said.
Hua Yu raised his eyebrows, "Is it because of the evil spirit? So they concluded that Young Master Lu would not wake up?"
"Tsk tsk..." Gong Ziheng hissed softly, "The people of the He family are too evil, aren't they?"
The head of the Lu family seemed to have thought of something. "Every time I sent servants out to look for medicine, no matter how well they disguised themselves, they would be intercepted by some people. I used to think it was a coincidence, but now it seems that it is probably the people of the He family who are monitoring our every move in the Lu Mansion... Then, Master, aren't you also?"
"Don't worry, they didn't find us." Ruan Xihe comforted, "I checked when I came here, there was no one around, so the He family is not always watching the Lu family. They are probably afraid that if they watch too closely, you will find us easily."
Lu Jinan pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "If that's the case, why not take advantage of their situation..."
He told me a plan.
After hearing this, everyone present thought it was feasible.
"Since it's feasible, then Dad, you can take them to the competition first, and I'll take care of the rest."
"it is good."
After the head of the Lu family took Ruan Xihe and the others away, Lu Jinan found a few servants.
He said something to a few servants, and they quickly disguised themselves and went out.
After leaving the house, the servants did not walk far before they began to sigh and weep, "The young master's health is getting worse, what can we do?"
"I don't know how long the young master can hold on. Why did his cultivation level start to decline today? He even vomited blood..."
"Don't think my words are harsh. I really think that the young master may not be able to make it out this month..."
As they talked, several grown men began to hug each other and cry bitterly.
Not far away, a few people who saw this scene looked at each other, slipped away proudly, and turned back to the He family.
After those people left, the crying of the servants stopped abruptly.
They looked in the direction where those people left, their eyes slightly cold, "Young Master is right, someone is following us."
"I get angry when I think about the fact that they were the ones who made it difficult for us to buy medicine before."
"Don't be angry, it's most important to go home and report this to the young master."
...
the other side.
When Patriarch Lu brought Ruan Xihe and the others to the He family, other families had already arrived.
Today is the second round of competition.
The competition requires entering the forest behind the He family, and then hunting spirit beasts and seizing crystal cores within the specified time. The ranking is still based on points.
The crystal core of a spiritual beast has one to two points, and the crystal core of a holy beast has five to ten points.
In order to prevent cheating, they tied cloth strips on the eyes of all the disciples, and then the heads of the five major families joined forces to throw all the disciples into the forest.
When everyone hears the command to start the game, they can take off their blindfolds at the same time.
The game started.
The strategies of each family are different.
Some hunt the sacred beasts alone so as not to waste every minute, while others gather with teammates first and then hunt the sacred beasts together.
But because not every animal can possess a crystal core, everyone's progress is not particularly fast.
Ruan Xihe was not in a hurry to find his friends.
Because hunting spiritual beasts is not a difficult task for them, they have to explore the forest separately first to see where the evil spirits may be hidden.
Ruan Xihe took out a map.
That was a rough map of the forest that Lu Jinan drew before leaving the Lu family.
While fighting spirit beasts, she explored the forest and marked every place she passed on the map.
Not long after, she came across Huayu first.
Huayu also said that he didn't see anything unusual, and then the route he had taken was crossed out from the map.
"Hey? A disciple of the Lu family? Are you alone?"
Suddenly, a loud and sarcastic voice came from not far in front of me.
Ruan Xihe and Hua Yu put away the map, looked up, and found that they were six disciples of the He family.
The person walking in the front was the disciple who sold the fake name card to Huayu that day. He put his hands in his pockets and looked at Huayu and Ruan Xihe with ill intentions.
"You've come just in time..." Hua Yu was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves.
Before he had time to find him, the prey came right before his eyes.
It's really hard to find anything without trying to find it, and it takes no effort at all to get there!
Hua Yu rushed forward without saying a word and punched.
Ruan Xihe knew that Hua Yu wanted to vent his anger on his own, so he did not take any action and just helped Hua Yu calm down the other five He family disciples.
The man was no match for Hua Yu at all. He was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back and kept begging for mercy.
But Huayu ignored him until the man was unable to stand up and collapsed under the tree behind him. Only then did Huayu breathe a sigh of relief and retract his fist.
"You have violated the friendly agreement of the competition. I am going out to sue you!" the man said crying.
The other five He family disciples beside him chimed in, "That's right! Friendship first, competition second!"
"you......"
Ruan Xihe blew on his fist, and it brushed past the man's ear and finally stopped one millimeter away from the tree trunk behind the man.
The next moment, an invisible wolf that had sneaked up and ambushed behind the tree trunk fell down.
The head exploded, blood plasma spilled out, and the light blue crystal core flew directly into Ruan Xihe's hands.
"Are you sure you want to sue?"
Ruan Xihe held the crystal core and looked at the other five He family disciples standing beside him with a smile.
The warm and smelly blood splattered all over the man and the five disciples.
The man swallowed and tilted his head slightly.
"Kacha——"
But just because he moved, the big tree he was leaning against fell backwards and broke in half, which was obviously caused by the force of Ruan Xihe's punch just now.
