Chapter 1142 Southeast Martial Arts Association
Hearing Xiaohong's words, Lu Chen couldn't help but frown slightly. This was very strange, as if there was an invisible big hand behind it, pushing him step by step into the trap.
Just looking at Xiaohong's appearance now, I'm afraid I can't refuse this matter, so I have to go to the Xiao family mansion no matter what.
"But do you want to go now?" Lu Chen didn't talk nonsense and asked directly while looking at the person in front of him.
"Go tomorrow. The Southeast Martial Arts Tournament will be hosted by the Xiao family tomorrow. Almost all the strong members of the Xiao family will show up. I will have a way by then." Xiaohong's thinking was very clear and he spoke slowly.
He knew that if he went now, he might not even be able to see everyone in the Xiao family, let alone find the murderer.
After the two talked for a while, they left separately...
Lu Chen returned to his cabin, while Xiaohong left the cabin. He wanted to go back to Xiao's house to investigate first.
In the hut, Lu Chen sat cross-legged, and then took out the small white jade bottle that Xiaohong had just given him from the storage ring.
"Xuanqing Qi, Wu Changfeng accidentally said that this Qi can only be possessed by the master of the Taoist sect..." A flash of light flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.
Looking at the vial in front of him, he couldn't help but fall into silence. If he absorbed the Xuanqing Qi in the vial, he could be sure that he would be able to comprehend the Dao Seal between his eyebrows with all his strength.
"It's just that Xiao Tianji, should I trust him?" Lu Chen's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't help but secretly thought.
After a long time, he suddenly waved his arm, and the Linglong Tower flew out of his body and hovered above his head. After hesitating for a moment, Lu Chen integrated the white jade bottle in his hand into the pagoda in mid-air.
Time passed quietly, and the day passed quickly. It was probably because of Xiaohong that the Xiao family did not come to trouble Lu Chen again.
On this day, there was destined to be no peace in Tianji City. The annual Southeast Martial Arts Competition started, and disciples from all the major families were heading towards the Xiao Family Mansion.
In the small flat house in the east of Tianji City, Lu Chen slowly opened his slightly closed eyes, looked up and looked out the door.
Under his consciousness, Xiaohong's figure had already arrived in the small courtyard outside the house, waiting for him to walk out.
Lu Chen chuckled lightly, then stood up and disappeared into the room. The next moment, he appeared in front of Xiaohong.
Xiaohong glanced at Lu Chen, then raised his hand to give him a fist and said, "Thank you very much for this."
He knew that asking Chase Lu to go to the Xiao family's residence at this time seemed to be a bit like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
"There is no need to say anything between you and me, and after all, this happened because of me..." Lu Chen said with a faint smile, Xiaohong nodded slightly, and after the two looked at each other, they walked away directly towards the sky. He ducked away in the direction of Xiaofu.
In Tianji City, the Xiao Mansion was very lively at this time. On the martial arts training ground in the mansion, the Southeast Martial Arts Tournament was going on as scheduled. All the major families took up one side and sent their younger generation geniuses to compete.
At the front of the martial arts training ground, almost all members of the Xiao family were present. Even the five elders of the Tribulation Realm who rarely showed up were all present.
At this time, Xiaohong and Lu Chen had already entered Xiaofu. They walked side by side and walked slowly towards the martial arts training ground without attracting too many people's attention.
After entering the martial arts training ground, Lu Chen's eyes flashed, and he raised his head and stared directly at the five powerful men in the Tribulation Realm in front of him.
As for the competition in the martial arts training ground, Lu Chen was not interested at all at this time. These so-called geniuses of the younger generation were far from his fighting power.
"You said the person who emerged from me is among those five elders?" Lu Chen stopped and turned his head to look at Xiaohong beside him.
Xiaohong nodded slightly when he heard the words, a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and at the same time, he glanced forward, at the five powerful men in the Tribulation Realm.
"Anyone who can kill people in Xiao Mansion without attracting any attention must be at least in the Tribulation realm." Xiaohong said slowly with a calm voice.
"How to lure this person out?" Lu Chen asked in a low voice. Xiaohong said yesterday that he had his own way, and he was obviously well prepared for coming here today.
Xiaohong turned his head to look at Lu Chen, and a smile suddenly flashed across his indifferent face.
Lu Chen was slightly startled. Xiaohong rarely smiled at Lu Chen. Suddenly he smiled at himself, which immediately gave him a bad premonition.
"If you participate in this martial arts competition and win first place, you will be rewarded by the Xiao family. It can help us find the person hiding in the dark." Xiao Hong looked at Lu Chen and spoke calmly.
"I'm going to play? Why don't you go." Lu Chen glanced at Xiaohong and spoke directly.
It's not that he doesn't want to play, it's just that under the current situation, people in the Xiao family have some misunderstandings about him. Once he goes on the field to compete, he may cause a lot of trouble.
After hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiaohong raised his finger and pointed to the place where the Xiao family members were, a young man wearing a gold silk robe on the right.
"In this Southeast Martial Arts Competition, the Xiao family will send him to play, but I am not qualified to play." Xiaohong said matter-of-factly in a calm voice.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen followed the direction of Xiaohong's finger, raised his head and stared, and his eyes also fell on the man in gold robe.
This person has a stern face, a late-stage spiritual transformation, and a proud look on his brows. He is staring coldly at the martial arts training ground in front of him.
"What will be the reward for the first place Xiaojia?" After Lu Chen withdrew his gaze, he turned to Xiaohong and asked.
"Mr. Dao Xiao's soul-splitting jade slip can be used to perform a deduction technique. When the time comes, you can directly use this technique to deduce the person who is pretending to be you." Xiaohong's face remained normal and he immediately answered.
Lu Chen couldn't help being shocked when he heard this. No wonder even Wang Song left the academy and came here to participate in the Southeast Martial Arts Tournament.
This reward from the Xiao family is quite impressive. Even Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little excited after a deduction.
"If this person is really one of the five powerful men in the Tribulation Realm, they probably won't let me compete." After Lu Chen thought for a moment, a trace of doubt flashed across his face.
After all, if he wins first place, this person's identity will definitely be exposed, and he will become a traitor to the Xiao family, and he may not be able to leave Tianji City.
"They won't stop you. The Southeast Martial Arts Association has been held for hundreds of years. As the leader of the Southeast, the Xiao family will not be able to convince the public and lose face if they break the rules at will." Xiaohong explained.
Hearing this, Lu Chen sighed secretly and couldn't help but flash a wry smile on his face. There was nothing wrong with Xiaohong's words. It seemed that he couldn't escape this time.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen took a deep breath. It seemed that this was all he could do now. He was too lazy to think any more and stepped directly onto the competition stage in the middle of the martial arts training ground.
