Chapter 433 Sleepless Night
"Really. Is it that serious?"

The Queen Mother of the West found it unbelievable.

Not only could she not believe that this catastrophe would be so severe, she also could not believe that even a powerful being like the Three Pure Ones would have to go with the flow in order to protect themselves in such a torrent.

Although she was not a hegemonic god in the Sanqing Realm in the past, she had a brother who was a hegemonic god. She had never encountered a situation that required compromise, and it was a little difficult for her to accept it for a while.

"Of course." Jiang Lu replied: "This is the worst-case scenario. It may not necessarily come to that. The specific situation will depend on how tomorrow's meeting goes."

"Speaking of this, what about us?" asked the Lord of Dao and Virtue.

They came together this time just to help Jiang Lu save face, but they didn't expect something like this to happen.

When he thought about the possibility of affecting the Three Pure Ones Realm, Lord Daode had to change his mindset and strategy. He decided to stop slacking off and make some real efforts.

"I asked Lucifer. There is a limit on the number of participants. He can only bring three people. Originally, Asmodeus, Samael, and the contracted gods were all supposed to attend the meeting. I replaced the contracted gods, so I was able to sneak in. However, he doesn't seem to have the idea of ​​letting a second person attend the meeting, so you probably can't get in."

Jiang Lu told everyone what he and Lucifer had agreed on:
"However, the meeting will be held in the Imperial Palace, not far from the mansion where the envoys from all walks of life are staying, so you can stay in the mansion temporarily. If anything unexpected happens, it will be convenient for you to respond accordingly."

"Okay." The Lord of Dao nodded.

Everyone knows that no matter how they speculate or infer now, they are all false. Tomorrow's meeting is the highlight, so instead of discussing it now, it would be better to let Jiang Lu rest early so that he can be in the best condition tomorrow.

"We can't help you tomorrow, so be careful." Lingbao Tianzun warned Jiang Lu seriously.

Now the situation has changed. Jiang Lu has become the representative of the Three Pure Ones. The future of the Three Pure Ones depends on him. Even Lingbao Tianzun, who has always been immersed in his own world and is almost in a state of Alzheimer's disease, can't help but take him seriously.

"I know. Then you should go to bed early. We will set off at dawn."

"it is good."

Just when Jiang Lu called Zi Chi and asked her to arrange a rest room for everyone, Dong Wanggong quietly grabbed Jiang Lu.

"Brother-in-law, I have something to say. Can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Seeing his cautious look, Jiang Lu felt that it was a serious matter, so he followed him solemnly to a secluded corner.

"what happened?"

"I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not." Dong Wanggong seemed a little hesitant, which was totally inconsistent with his usual style.

This made Jiang Lu feel even more strange.

"Go ahead, is there anything we can't say?" Jiang Lu just finished speaking, and seemed to realize something, and asked in a questioning tone: "You don't mean to say that Yuanshi Tianzun was also invited to the meeting, but you forgot it before?"

Dong Wanggong's expression was dull: "Ah?"

"Forget it." Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that it's not true, just say it directly."

“Oh, what I meant is”

Dong Wanggong seemed to find it difficult to speak:
"I have thought about this question for a long time. I didn't want to say it, but I was afraid that you would be wronged, so I couldn't help it. Don't blame me if I didn't say it well. I also said it out of kindness."

Seeing him dithering like this, Jiang Lu became a little impatient: "Just say it directly, don't be so nagging."

"Well, it's not a big deal. You said the first head of Jiuyou Pavilion was your mistress, right? The current head is called Tai Nai, so she is her descendant."

Dong Wanggong frowned and asked seriously:
"So, your descendants are doing this kind of work now. Do you have any idea about it?"

Jiang Lu was stunned, and then the look in his eyes when he looked at Dong Wanggong suddenly changed.

Turtle, are you really a genius?

Even Jiang Lu himself had not thought of this angle.

However, although his attitude of research is commendable, unfortunately, Jiang Lu is sterile, so this concern does not apply. Hmm?
Jiang Lu suddenly realized something.

I am sterilized, so why can she have offspring?
hiss.
Jiang Lu walked out of the corner under the inquiring gaze of Dong Wanggong and waved to Zi Chi who was busy not far away: "Zi Chi, come here."

"what happened?"

Zi Chi walked over curiously.

While she was confused, Jiang Lu suddenly grabbed her finger and bit it.

"oops!"

Zi Chi cried out in pain, but before she could ask any questions, Jiang Lu wrapped his lips around her injured finger and began sucking it.

The tingling sensation made Zi Chi find a delicate balance between pain and tenderness, and his face suddenly turned red: "Master..."

But before she could slowly experience this feeling, Jiang Lu pulled her fingers out of her mouth, then stood at attention with dull eyes, as if he had fallen into some kind of shutdown state.

"What's wrong with him?" Zi Chi asked Dong Wanggong in confusion.

Dong Wanggong spread his hands and said he didn't know.

After a while, Jiang Lu seemed to wake up suddenly and fell to his knees.

"There are seven differences in the DNA. They are not biological children."

His eyes were dull, and he looked crazy, with a half-smile on his face: "I, Jiang, have fought in the military all my life, but I never expected that I would fail in the field that I am best at."

Zi Chi was still confused, but Dong Wanggong guessed something and looked at Jiang Lu sympathetically: "It's okay, this is normal. Men will get over it after a while."

"Bullshit!" Jiang Lu yelled, "I've never used Jingdong or bought MSI since I was a child, but I've never gone to Jiangxi. I've persisted all my life. Why should I suffer this kind of injustice?"

"Aren't you a hypocritical dog?" Dong Wanggong couldn't stand it anymore.

But Jiang Lu didn't care. He questioned Zi Chi: "Who is your great grandfather? Speak!"

"I" Zi Chi was frightened by his appearance and answered honestly: "I don't have a great grandfather. If I have to say, it's only you."

"How is that possible? Don't you call her Grandma? But you and I have no blood relationship, so how could there be no other Grandpa?"

At this time, Zi Chi finally realized what Jiang Lu meant.

She quickly explained, "It's my fault, Master. It's all my fault that I forgot to explain to you. Although the previous Pavilion Masters of Jiuyou Pavilion all addressed each other as mother and daughter, they are indeed not related by blood. The Pavilion Master of each generation is the most outstanding courtesan of the time who has passed many tests. It is not really passed down from generation to generation."

Speaking of this, Zi Chi's thoughts suddenly went back to the time when she was just an apprentice hostess in her youth.

[“Sensitivity, level three! You don’t have the potential to become the most beautiful lady in Jiuyou Pavilion!”

A haze shrouded the tiny body of Zi Chi, and despair overwhelmed him. Three years of hard work seemed like a joke.

Fortunately, she accidentally found a steel plug in the prop room. When she wiped it, a kind and beautiful woman appeared. Although it was just a projection left many years ago, that kind of gentleness still made Zi Chi unforgettable for her whole life.

"Little girl, do you want to learn the art of lust? As long as you develop twenty-three unique physical potentials, you can be comparable to the first generation Pavilion Master!"

"I want to learn!"

A long time later, when she became the head of Jiuyou Pavilion, she found out that the beautiful woman whom she called Anlao in these years was actually the first head of the Pavilion.

"Eh?" Jiang Lu stood up after learning the truth: "It's okay then." His back straightened up again.

"Eh?" Dong Wanggong thought again: "Then why not call her Great Grandmother?"

"Uh" Jiang Lu and Zi Chi fell into deep thought.

But after seeing Jiang Lu's relaxed expression, Zi Chi suddenly felt aggrieved and started crying.

Jiang Lu felt strange: "Why are you crying? I didn't cry."

"I'm crying because you don't trust Grandma." Zi Chi rubbed his red eyes: "She is infatuated with you, and you still doubt her, Master! You are bad!"

"Hmm." Jiang Lu knew he was in the wrong, so he sighed and said, "Since you and I are not related by blood, I will compensate you."

"How...how to compensate?" Zi Chi asked sobbingly.

"Let me help you become the only two true and genuine Pavilion Masters that I have ever recognized in the history of Jiuyou Pavilion!"

After saying that, Jiang Lu took the hand of Zi Chi, who looked expectant, and slowly walked away.

Dong Wanggong stood there, wondering whether to tell Xi Wangmu.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

But after thinking about it, he decided to let it go. After all, Jiang Lu’s pain just now was not fake, he had already been punished, and what happened next was what he deserved.

Of course, the more important reason was that he didn't want to be involved in this kind of thing.

Reason told him that it might feel good to backstab Jiang Lu this time, but there would be times in the future when he would feel unhappy.

Jiang Lu is a vengeful person and is very difficult to deal with.

So, just pretend you don’t know.

That night.

Queen Mother of the West lay in bed, unable to fall asleep.

She moved her elbow and nudged Jiang Lu who was standing beside her.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Lu was still awake.

"I can't sleep." Queen Mother Xi looked at the ceiling and counted the petals of the carvings on it: "I always feel uneasy."

Jiang Lu felt a little guilty, but he still tried his best to act normal: "Why are you so upset?"

"I have a feeling that you will be in danger at tomorrow's meeting."

"Oh." Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief: "You are talking about this."

The sensitive Queen Mother of the West was stunned for a moment, then sat up, looked at Jiang Lu and asked, "Is there anything else that should make me uneasy?"

"Ah," Jiang Lu said awkwardly, "I thought you were afraid of what would happen to the Three Pure Ones."

"That's part of it." Queen Mother Xi nodded and stopped worrying: "But I'm more worried about your safety. Do you think Lucifer is trustworthy?"

"I think he can be trusted." Jiang Lu wasn't really sure, but at least they had worked together before and had a common enemy. He couldn't think of any reason why Lucifer would harm him.

"I always feel that he is not a good person." Queen Mother Xi shook her head: "He gives me the feeling of a brother. People like him will never be open-hearted to others. You have to be careful."

"Well, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Jiang Lu comforted.

"Don't just talk about it."

Queen Mother Xi felt that Jiang Lu was just trying to fool her, and said anxiously:
"You'll be alone tomorrow, so you really have to be careful.

I am worried that he is going to separate you from us and then trick you into killing him. What if he is one of the people you mentioned, one who is in cahoots with the Yin Emperor? "

"Probably. No?"

Although Jiang Lu still felt that Queen Mother of the West was thinking too much, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous after hearing her repeatedly emphasize it.

Yes, what if?
"Don't be afraid of a thousand things, just be prepared for the worst." The more Queen Mother of the West thought about it, the more panicked she became. "Why don't you go tomorrow? Let's think of other ways."

Jiang Lu was silent.

Queen Mother of the West knew that he was thinking, so she did not disturb him and waited quietly for the result of his thinking.

After a while, Jiang Lu finally shook his head.

"No, I still have to go." Jiang Lu said, "Don't say I'm just suspicious. Even if Lucifer really has bad intentions towards me, I have to take the risk. This is a serious matter and such an opportunity is rare. I really can't miss it."

"But."

"Don't think too much about it."

Jiang Lu interrupted her:

“Even if I don’t believe in Lucifer, I believe in the God of Contracts. He is an honest man, and we have a very good relationship. If there is anything, he will definitely tell me.

And I can see that he should be quite satisfied with Lucifer's attitude, which means he is having a good time in hell.

He is the kind of person who will not keep things to himself even if he is wronged if he sees something he doesn't like. If Lucifer is really that bad and the environment in hell is really that bad, he would not be like this now.

You know, the quality of leadership determines the enthusiasm of those below.

I can see that he is just as happy now as he was in the underworld, and I think this should explain something. At least Lucifer is not the kind of person who would abuse his power and treat others harshly. He should not target me for no reason. "

"Hmm," Queen Mother Xi felt that Jiang Lu's argument was not very reliable: "If you say so, as his old leader, you should be a good person, but the fact is, you are not a good person either."

"Uh"

A moment of embarrassment.

"Well, no matter what happens, I can handle it." Jiang Lu said with a little pride: "I am no longer the same person I was before. After a few months of precipitation, although I may not be able to defeat Yuanshi Tianzun, at least I will not be suppressed like at the beginning. If there is no one else, I am more than enough to fight Yin Di alone. If it really doesn't work, I will run away first, avoid the sharp edge for the time being, and make long-term plans. This is what I am best at."

"That's right." Queen Mother Xi was relieved a little: "Then you should be more careful. I won't say anything more, so as not to disturb your thoughts."

"Don't say that. I am still touched by your concern." Jiang Lu reached out to help Queen Mother Xi smooth her hair.

Queen Mother Xi chuckled: "Have you rested well?"

"Ah."

"Finish it?"

"Whatever. I can't sleep anyway."

"Then let's fix it."

Outside the door, Xuannv, who also couldn't sleep, leaned against the wall. When she heard the movement inside, she couldn't hide her excitement: "It's finally started again."
