“Do you know what a smokescreen is? If I don’t play some tricks, won’t I be led by the nose by you?!” The fake Luo Cheng snorted.
With that, Luo Cheng shouted with his internal energy, “We came according to the agreement. Is this how you treat guests? Whoever calls the shots, come out.
Otherwise, I’ll leave now!”
Before long, a woman walked out with a group of people.
“Mr. Luo has come from afar. Please don’t be angered by our rudeness!”
As Luo Cheng looked at the woman in front of him, he immediately frowned.
“Yu Baifeng, it’s actually you? What did you do to my uncle? To think that he took good care of you all these years. Unexpectedly, he had been taking care of a venemous ingrate!”
When Yu Baifeng heard Luo Cheng’s words, the expression on her face didn’t change.
“I had no choice but to invite Luo Cheng over in this way! After all, without
Third Master Xue around, Luo Cheng isn’t someone I can afford to ask to come! However, don’t worry, Luo Cheng. Your uncle, Third Master Xue, is in the valley now. I can’t afford to mistreat him!”
When he heard Yu Baifeng’s words, Luo Cheng said coldly,
“That better be the case! Lead the way! I want to see how my uncle is doing first! ”
When Yu Baifeng heard Luo Cheng’s words, she nodded with a smile. “Of course! After all, we want to cooperate with Luo Cheng with great sincerity!”
Luo Cheng didn’t say anything. Instead, he brought two guards into the Clear Dew Valley.
A house was actually built in the originally deserted Clear Dew Valley.
As Luo Cheng walked, he looked around and observed his surroundings.
Yu Baifeng didn’t seem to notice Luo Cheng and the others’ vigilance and continued to lead the way.
After walking for an unknown period of time, they finally stopped in front of a house.
“Mr. Luo, your uncle is inside!”
Seeing this, Luo Cheng gave the guard beside him a look and gestured tor him to open the door.
The courtyard door opened. From afar, they could see a man sitting at a table in the courtyard.
Luo Cheng walked in and saw that it was really his uncle, Third Master Xue.
“Uncle, how are you? Are you okay?”
As Third Master Xue looked at the people walking towards him, he was immediately puzzled.
His nephew rarely showed such concern for him. Could it be that he was worried that something had happened to him?
Thinking of this, Third Master Xue became happy again.
“Don’t worry! I’m fine, but why are you here?” Third Master Xue asked curiously, “How did you find me here?”
Luo Cheng asked curiously, “You don’t know? Uncle, they used the finger gloves on your hand to prove that you were in their hands and threatened me, so I came to save you!”
“Finger gloves? Didn’t you borrow the finger gloves because you thought they looked good and wanted to forge another one?” Third Master Xue looked at Yu Baifeng, who was behind Luo Cheng, in confusion.
“That’s right. I forged one and lured Luo Cheng over in order to discuss something important!” Yu Baifeng said directly.
Third Master Xue was stunned. He didn’t expect to receive such an answer.
At this moment, he understood that Yu Baifeng had lured Luo Cheng over behind his back.
At this point, Third Master Xue knew that it was useless to say anything else. He could only try his best to protect his nephew.
Third Master Xue thought of something and asked, “What did you call him over to discuss?”
“Don’t be so nervous. It’s actually a good thing!” Yu Baifeng walked over with a smile. As she clapped her hands, she asked someone to serve pastries and tea.
“Come, come, come. Mr. Luo, why don’t we sit down and talk while eating?!” After Yu Baifeng sat down, she looked at Luo Cheng and gestured for him to sit down.
Luo Cheng glanced at Third Master Xue and walked over to sit beside him.
Soon, hot water started boiling on the small stove.
“This tea isn’t good tea. Sorry, Mr. Luo!” Yu Baifeng said as she drank a cup of tea to show that it wasn’t poisonous.
Luo Cheng wasn’t thirsty at this moment, so he didn’t touch the pot of tea in front of him. Instead, he asked directly, “I’m already here. If you have anything to say, just say it! Don’t waste our time!”
Yu Baifeng smiled when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.
“Alright, since Luo Cheng is a straightforward person, I won’t beat around the bush! Mr. Luo, I believe your brothers don’t treat you well, right? I heard that you were bullied by them when you were young! Don’t you want to take revenge now?”
Luo Cheng sneered when he heard this.
“That’s between us brothers. It has nothing to do with you, Yu Baifeng, right?”
“Luo Cheng, let’s not beat around the bush! Don’t you want to get payback for all the grievances you’ve suffered? Now is a good opportunity! Tell me, when the world is in chaos and the government is in a precarious situation, do you want to take advantage of the situation and obtain that throne? Don’t tell me that you’re not interested in the throne! There’s no man in the world who isn’t interested in the throne! In the past, you might have been alone, but with our help, things will be different!” Yu Baifeng said.
Luo Cheng didn’t refute this. Instead, he pondered over it for a moment.
“What are your conditions?”
When Yu Baifeng heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately smiled.
“These two conditions are actually very simple. You just need to give Sichuan to my master! Then, make my master the overlord of Sichuan. I believe these two conditions are very easy to fulfill!”
When Luo Cheng heard this, he looked at Yu Baifeng with scrutiny.
Yu Baifeng didn’t panic. Instead, she picked up her teacup and drank again while letting Luo Cheng size her up.
Luo Cheng thought of something and sneered. “Let’s talk about your master’s strength first! You didn’t reveal his strength at all. Are you guys trying to gain something without risking anything of your own?”
When Yu Baifeng heard Luo Cheng’s words, she thought for a moment and said, “I can only say that as long as my master makes a move, you’ll definitely get the throne!”
When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately laughed out loud.
“Uncle, listen, this is the kind of woman you’ve been chasing all these years.
She only knows how to give lip service!”
With that, Luo Cheng stopped laughing and narrowed his eyes at Yu Baifeng.
“Although I was bullied by my brothers, I’m not stupid! Do you think you can fool me like this?!”
When Yu Baifeng heard Luo Cheng’s words, she wasn’t angry.. Instead, she said calmly, “It’s the truth! If you don’t believe me, forget it!”
