Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 422

In the main hall of the stronghold, besides the female stronghold leader, there were two elderly people sitting there, both at least sixty years old.

When they saw her bringing Lu Yu and the others in, they both looked up almost simultaneously.

These two elderly people looked very similar, they should be a pair of twins.

"Elder One, Elder Two, we're back."

"Mm, good to be back. What about the carriage?"

Elder One nodded and looked behind her, asking.

"The carriage... we encountered some trouble on our trip and the carriage died."

"Died? How did it die!"

Upon hearing that the carriage died, Elder Two immediately shouted. While shouting, he stood up tremblingly and leaned on his cane, making a "thud thud thud" sound on the floor.

"You all came back intact, and only he died? How can we believe that when you say it like this!"

Elder One also asked angrily.

When the female stronghold leader didn't know how to respond, Lu Yu stepped forward.

"The carriage? It should be the coachman who drove us. He deceived us into a trap, intending to rob us, but he was killed after we broke the formation."

"Who are you? You have no right to speak here..."

Elder Two wanted to continue being arrogant, but he was immediately suppressed by the aura released by Lu Yu, who was at the Gold Core stage. He was pressed back onto his chair.

Although Elder One was sitting, his face also became very ugly.

Both of them were only at the high level of the Foundation Building stage, not much stronger than the female stronghold leader.

Facing Lu Yu's full release of pressure, they didn't even have a chance to resist.

"Now we have the right to speak?"

"Hero, we surrender! If there's anything, find these young people. The two of us... you can do whatever you want."

Elder One quickly changed his attitude, showing fear.

After struggling for a while, Elder Two also obediently lowered his head.

"You surrender? Then get out of here! We're taking over this place!"

Lu Yu shouted at them angrily, and the two elders were blown away by his momentum, falling embarrassingly at the entrance.

They struggled to get up from the ground and quickly ran away. Looking at their agility, they didn't look like old people at all.

"Hehe... thank you. Finally, I don't have to be bothered by those two old fools anymore."

Seeing the two elders being chased away by Lu Yu, the female stronghold leader actually laughed happily.

"I'm Lu Yu, just call me by my name. By the way, what's your name? And why do you wear a mask?"

"I... I'm Jin Shan, the stronghold leader of Longya Stronghold. But as you can see, I'm just a puppet as the stronghold leader. But it doesn't matter, I will make Longya Stronghold glorious again!"

"Jin Shan? It's a good name. Do you have a sister named Yin Shan?"

"Pfft..."

Lu Yu teased, making Ling Tianxin laugh.

"No, it's not about mountains. I wear a mask because I'm not good-looking... By the way, you must be tired. Let me prepare some food for you."

From her actions, Lu Yu could see that she probably didn't have any ill intentions.

After she left, he casually found a chair and sat down.

As for the other women, except for Xiao Yu, they had already found their own places to sit.

"Let's rest for a while tonight, everyone be careful. If those two old guys dare to make a move, just kill them!"

"Don't worry, they've already run far away. They shouldn't make a move again. Ah, I'm so tired. Lu Yu, come and massage my legs..."

Ling Tianxin had been paying attention to those two old men all along.

After they had all run far away, she stretched lazily, propped her long legs on the chair in front of her, and shouted at Lu Yu.

"Hit your leg!"

Lu Yu gave her a disdainful look.

This girl had always taken advantage of her, but refused to cultivate together.

Last time, she subtly mentioned it to her, but this girl cunningly ran away.

It made him itch with anger.

And now she wanted him to hit her leg? He would break her leg.

Lu Yu didn't move, but Xiaoyu next to him walked over obediently and gently tapped her leg.

"Sister Tianxin, are you tired from walking? Let me massage you."

"Oh Xiaoyu, don't do that. I was just teasing him. Look at how sensible you are, it really makes people feel sorry for you! You even let her do housework and serve you? Where is your conscience?"

"She was originally a little maid I bought."

Lu Yu gave her a resentful look.

If he didn't let the maid he bought do any work, would he have to support her too?

"Don't talk about Brother Lu anymore, he's been good to me. Now I don't have to worry about food and drink, and I can even cultivate. I will definitely cultivate very well in the future and help you all fight the bad guys together."

"Hahaha, Brother Lu is the biggest bad guy. We'll all fight him together!"

Ling Tianxin burst into laughter at Xiaoyu's words.

They were all joking and playing around.

After a while, a few girls came from outside.

They were holding food boxes and cautiously looking inside.

"Come in."

Lu Yu saw the girls waving at them.

Perhaps he didn't look intimidating, as the girls, though nervous, gathered up their courage and walked in.

"Adults, this is the dinner prepared by our village chief for everyone."

"Put it on the table."

Lu Yu nodded.

This female village chief was quite efficient, as she had prepared a table of food in less than twenty minutes.

The girls carefully opened the food boxes and brought out the dishes.

Xiaoyu also stood up and started helping them serve the dishes.

But when she saw the food in the boxes, she couldn't help but frown.

Simple coarse grain cakes and some unknown wild vegetables...

To be honest, she didn't mind these things, as she would have been grateful for them in the past.

But she didn't mind eating them, they were meant for Lu Yu and the others!

This couldn't be described as frugal.

In the several food boxes, there was only half a stewed chicken, which could be considered a proper dish. As for the other food, only the lowest class of common people would eat them.

Although she was unhappy, Xiaoyu didn't say anything.

But just because she didn't say anything didn't mean Ling Tianxin wouldn't.

Seeing these dishes, Ling Tianxin's good mood was instantly swept away.

She stood up and walked to the table.

"Is this the meal prepared by your village chief for us? Is this what you give to prisoners?"

"Madam, please forgive us, spare us!"

The girls were so scared that they immediately knelt down, begging for mercy and kowtowing, leaving her at a loss.
