Chapter 682: Kill the old thief and spend a good night together (4k2, please subscribe)
Before Wen Changying came, Wei Tu had the idea of killing Lu Xiqing. He was not a good man, so how could he tolerate the soft threat from this old man?
The only obstacle is how to deal with the relationship between himself and Dingling Sect after killing Lu Xiqing.
But now, with Wen Changying's request, he no longer had any worries about killing Lu Xiqing.
"Since Sister Changying has made such a request, then the head of this old villain should also fall."
Wei Tu nodded and chuckled.
After he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and a green sword energy flew out from his sleeves, passing straight through the stone wall door separating the inner hall and the outer hall, and fell on the neck of Lu Xiqing who was pacing anxiously in the lobby of the outer hall.
The sound of Weng Ran's sword rang out.
The next moment, Lu Xiqing's shrill wail was heard from the outer hall, followed by the crisp sound of a head hitting the ground.
"died?"
Wen Changying was stunned.
She had thought that Wei Tu would most likely agree to her request. She was disgusted by Lu Xiqing, and a strong man like Wei Tu would not tolerate Lu Xiqing's jumping up and down.
But she never thought that Lu Xiqing's death would be so easy and simple.
A stream of sword energy shot out, and the head fell to the ground.
There is great terror between life and death.
Facing the end of Lv Xiqing's life, she made an irrational move. When she saw Lv Xiqing's tragic death in an instant...she felt a little more fear in her heart at that moment.
This fear is a mixture of grief for the death of a rabbit and awe for the "uncontrollable" power of Wei Tu.
——She was used to Wei Tu’s amiable face, but this was the first time she felt his indifference and cruelty towards life.
In a word.
She was frightened by... Wei Tu's decisiveness in killing!
However, this was what she asked Wei Tu to do after all. After a brief shock, her throat felt a little dry and she began to thank Wei Tu.
"Sister Changying, you don't have to thank me. I hate this old villain... Even if Sister Changying didn't ask me this time, I would send people to kill him in Luoxia Secret Realm after he got the secret realm quota from me."
Wei Tu noticed the deep fear hidden on Wen Changying's face. He smiled indifferently and said this truthfully.
It also contains a warning to Wen Changying.
His meaning was very simple: he was not driven by Wen Changying to kill Lu Xiqing. Wen Changying alone did not have the face to do so. Killing Lu Xiqing was an idea he had had for a long time.
In the past, Wei Tu would not have been so "cold-tongued" towards Wen Changying or Dinglingzong, but after Lu Xiqing's "soft threat" this time, he realized the deep meaning of the ancient saying "fear power but not virtue".
Some people only remember to be beaten but not to eat.
Blindly showing kindness will not earn gratitude, but instead will lead to double demands.
He hoped that this would be the last time that the Dingling Sect would "offend" him.
"Junior understands."
As the leader of the Dingling Sect, Wen Changying had been in charge of the power of the Dingling Sect for more than two hundred years. She naturally understood the profound meaning of Wei Tu's words. She forced a smile and quickly responded.
Seeing that Wen Changying was so tactful, Wei Tu nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he pointed and opened the stone door separating the inner and outer halls, looked at Lu Xiqing whose head and body were separated, and said:
"Lü Xiqing was a cultivator of the Dingling Sect. I will leave his body and belongings to Sister Changying."
"Thank you, Senior Wen..." Wen Changying stood up to thank him and turned to look at the body of his father-in-law Lu Xiqing.
However, when she looked back, perhaps because her movement was too big, she pulled the straps of the bellyband on her jade back.
In an instant, Wen Changying's flawless, graceful and slender body appeared naked in front of Wei Tu.
However, what disappointed Wen Changying a little was that Wei Tu behind her did not reveal any greedy or passionate look, and his expression remained extremely calm.
"That's right! With a senior like Senior Wen, what woman can't get him? It's not like those young boys who have just entered the world of immortal cultivation who can't control their lust." She thought about it carefully and felt relieved.
However, although she felt relieved, without Wei Tu's interaction, the atmosphere was obviously a little stiff, and there was a hint of embarrassment on her face.
Obviously, although the accident of her underwear slipping off was not her careful design, it was also "intentional" on her part.
When she rushed from Dinglingzong to Taizhenzong, she had no intention of using her beauty to please him. She just wanted to explain it clearly to Wei Tu so that the old situation could be maintained.
So, when her father-in-law Lu Xiqing asked her to serve Wei Tu, she felt disgusted and hatred for him, and knelt down and begged Wei Tu to kill the old thief Lu Xiqing.
But after Lu Xiqing's death...
Her thoughts inevitably underwent some subtle changes.
——She had the idea of relying on Wei Tu for support.
She had thought about this before, but because of numerous taboos and secular moral constraints, she could only give up the idea.
But today, Lu Xiqing tore through this layer of window paper.
In order to show her determination, she also took the initiative to tear her coat...
Now, in addition to the fake brother-sister relationship between her and Wei Tu, there is also some ambiguity between them.
——Forcing her to serve Wei Tu and her taking the initiative to serve Wei Tu are two completely different things.
She has been a widow for hundreds of years, and she can't stay like this forever.
It just so happens that Wei Tu has a good character, is not tempted by women, and has strong strength... He is her ideal type.
It’s a pity that the character of Wei Tu, whom she valued, has become a “restriction” for Wei Tu to take action against her at this moment.
"Senior Wen, now that Lv Xiqing is dead, Senior Wen has also given us a heads-up. What should we do next?"
Wen Changying folded his arms, half-covering himself, turned around and looked at Wei Tu again, took a deep breath, and said.
Since Wei Tu didn't take the initiative, she had to take the initiative.
"This matter..."
Hearing this, Wei Tu frowned slightly.
Before he killed Lu Xiqing, he had considered the trouble that would arise after Lu Xiqing's death. However, in his opinion, this trouble would only depend on whether Dingling Sect would accept it.
As long as Dingling Sect accepts it, Lu Xiqing's death will not cause any trouble to him.
But...it’s different on Wen Changying’s side.
As the leader of the Dingling Sect, Wen Changying should give an explanation to the Dingling Sect for the death of Lu Xiqing.
What's the explanation?
Died suddenly? Went to another place to practice in seclusion?
These can all be reasons.
However, it can only be a superficial reason and cannot prevent the cultivators inside and outside the Dingling Sect from making malicious speculations about this.
The things that are most likely to make the public reach a consensus are gossips, such as that he had an affair with Wen Changying, his nominal cousin, and secretly harmed his father-in-law Lu Xiqing.
"What does Sister Changying want to do?"
There was no point in thinking too much, so Wei Tu suppressed his distracting thoughts and asked directly about Wen Changying's specific plans.
"Senior Wen, you should know... Once the old villain Lu Xiqing dies, my reputation will definitely be damaged..."
Wen Changying said with a wry smile.
At this point, she showed a resolute look on her face, "So instead of damaging it with other people, it's better for me to directly destroy my own reputation. This way, I can get some real benefits!"
Just say it.
Wen Changying bowed again and said, "Senior Wen, please enjoy my dirty body."
The first time she said this, she was indignant, angry at her father-in-law Lu Xiqing, so she didn't hesitate to tarnish her own reputation, and used this as a prelude to ask Wei Tu to kill Lu Xiqing. And the second time she said this...
That's her true intention.
She needs the strong support of Wei Tu, a powerful person, behind her.
Wei Tu had been wandering around the world for a long time, so he could understand the desire of a drowning person like Wen Changying to grab the last reed.
Wen Changying was deeply uneasy about his political ambivalence towards the Dingling Sect, and he could only feel at ease by remedying the problem in other ways.
In the past, they were a brother and sister at the family reunion meeting.
But with Lu Xiqing's disturbance, this relationship was on the verge of breaking down, so Wen Changying called him "Senior Wen" instead of "Brother Qi" as before.
For men and women, the easiest thing is to have sex with each other.
For him, he didn't mind having one more chance of success in the Great Yan cultivation world.
But...if he really had an affair with Wen Changying, then the "murder of Lu Xiqing" would be true if it wasn't true.
"Don't worry, Senior Wen. What happened between you and me is just a private matter. I will never bring bad reputation to you."
Wen Changying seemed to have noticed Wei Tu's concerns. She pursed her lips and expressed her opinion immediately.
Underground mistress?
Wei Tu understood some of Wen Changying's thoughts, and his expression eased a little.
It's the same logic. You can't just bear the stigma and not enjoy any real benefits.
Wen Changying was delighted when she saw this. She moved her knees slightly and came closer to Wei Tu. She took the initiative to take off Wei Tu's skirt with her bare hands...
……
An hour later.
Wei Tu put on his clothes and signaled Wen Changying to get up and collect the body of Lu Xiqing, which was lying on the floor of the outer hall with the blood still not dried.
Although he had no bad taste, it was inevitably inappropriate to keep Lu Xiqing's body here.
"Yes, Brother Qi."
Wen Changying resumed calling Wei Tu by his old name. She nodded, turned around, rubbed her slightly sore cheeks, and with a flash of light, she flew to the vicinity of Lu Xiqing's body and put his corpse into the storage bag.
Then, Wen Changying thought for a moment, bowed to Wei Tu, and told him the excuse she had just prepared in her mind to deceive the monks of Dingling Sect.
"Lü Xiqing has reached the end of his life. Because he had an old grudge that was not settled, and was worried about bringing trouble to the sect, he went to deal with it personally... but unfortunately he was defeated in the battle and died in a foreign land."
"Thanks to Brother Qi's help, the Grand Elder was able to rest in peace and avenge his death."
This excuse directly reversed right and wrong, turning Wei Tu's killing of Lu Xiqing into Wei Tu's revenge for Lu Xiqing, turning him from an enemy into a benefactor.
However, if someone is attentive, they will be able to find the flaw in this excuse.
——Lü Xiqing was upright and came all the way from Dinglingzong to Taizhenzong, and then paid a visit to Wei Tu.
It would be difficult for Wen Changying alone to erase the traces left by Lu Xiqing along the way.
It is also unclear why Lu Xiqing never came out after entering Wei Tu's cave.
But... in the world of immortal cultivation, strength is respected.
This reason is enough. No one would blame Wei Tu, a quasi-god-level powerful man, for such a small matter. At most, they would gossip about him in private.
In addition, in Dingling Sect, after Lu Xiqing's death, the only two Yuanying left in the sect were Wen Changying and Deng Shuyan.
Wen Changying would never question this matter.
Deng Shuyan's brother, Deng Zhangmen, has deeply intertwined interests with Wei Tu. As long as Deng Shuyan is not stupid, she will not openly question Wei Tu and Wen Changying.
Therefore, this seemingly flawed excuse was enough to silence the people in Dingling Sect.
However, to the powerful people within the Taizhen Sect, the loophole in Wen Changying's excuse was obvious.
After Wen Changying bid farewell to Wei Tu, returned to Dingling Sect and announced the death of Lu Xiqing - in Taizhen Sect, Liu Daoshou and Chen Tan, who had a friendly relationship with Wei Tu, looked at Wei Tu with eyes that contained some special meaning.
"Master Wen, don't worry. The fact that Lu Xiqing went to your cave and never came back is only known to... Liu and Fellow Daoist Xu. We have also strictly ordered the relevant disciples not to spread this matter..."
Liu Daoshou opened the window and spoke proactively.
Although his face showed the same worry as Wei Tu's, there was joy in his eyes.
After all, this matter was, more or less, a handle on Wei Tu.
"really?"
Wei Tu was slightly delighted when he heard this. He had not expected that he could use this opportunity to "give others a handle" and deepen the trust of Emperor Taizhen and his people in him.
A villain forms a clique but does not form a group.
Although a moral villain cannot gain the deep trust of his peers, most of the time, the shallow trust of being regarded as the same kind is enough.
"Of course." Liu Daoshou smiled slightly and told the funny story of how he had cheated his brother and stolen his sister-in-law in the past, in order to deepen Wei Tu's recognition of their Taizhen Sect.
After he finished speaking, Liu Daoshou looked at Chen Tan who came with him, and signaled him to also tell something immoral.
Seeing this hint, Chen Tan was speechless for a moment.
He was indeed not clean, but what he did was not a "moral flaw" like Liu Daoshou, but a serious matter of patricide. Of course, this matter could not be spoken casually.
There are also different levels of villains.
Once people know that he helped others kill their father, who would dare to get close to this "filial son"?
"Xu once passed by a market and saw a beautiful female cultivator. He secretly abducted her to his cave and raped her for several months..."
Chen Tan groaned and said.
As soon as these words came out.
Liu Daoshou looked at Wei Tu and Chen Tan, and immediately felt a sense of being close friends with similar interests.
Next, the three of them chatted about this matter for a while, mostly talking about some gossip about the big guys of the Nine-Nation Alliance.
Talked until late at night.
Dao Shou Liu paused and talked about business, asking Wei Tu whether he was willing to join the Taizhen Sect and formally submit to Alliance Leader Feng.
There are many ways to join Alliance Leader Feng.
But only by joining the Taizhen Sect can one be considered to have officially surrendered to Alliance Leader Feng.
There is no other reason. After joining Taizhenzong, the relationship between Wei Tu and Feng Yuan, in addition to the Nine-Nation Alliance, will also include the relationship between them as fellow clansmen of Taizhenzong.
With this additional relationship, centrists like Wei Tu within the Nine-Nation Alliance will no longer have the opportunity to waver.
"What's the benefit?"
Wei Tu thought for a moment, then asked with a serious look on his face.
When meeting with Fu Zhizhou and others last time, Fu Zhizhou said that Master Tiegui had met with the four Dharma protectors under his command and seemed to have some plan.
During the years he stayed in Taizhen Sect, he also saw Feng Yuan discussing matters with the five great Dao leaders many times.
The two alliance leaders were behaving so strangely, it seemed as if a storm was about to hit the southern region...
Therefore, now that Dao Shou Liu is lobbying him to join Taizhen Sect and become the sixth Dao Shou, in his opinion, it is very likely a measure taken by Feng Yuan to increase the strength of his own faction in order to cope with future changes.
However, in order not to arouse suspicion from Liu Daoshou and others, there was no need for him to act too hastily. Being willing to forget about other things when seeing benefits was in line with his current personality.
