Ethereal Pass governed three states and fourteen cities.
The King of Youtong Mansion was currently located in the City of Brisk.
At this moment.
In a study room of King Tongyou's Mansion.
A middle-aged man with a sinister face and a domineering aura was listening to his trusted subordinate's report.
"Your Highness, in another seven days, it will be the eighteenth birthday of King Wu Nan's youngest son.”
" At that time, King Wu Nan's Mansion will definitely hold a coming-of-age ceremony…"
It went without saying that this middle-aged man was none other than the illustrious Secluded Opening King, Zhang Wanxiong!
"Lu Ping 'an's coming-of-age ceremony?"
Zhang Wanxiong sneered as he listened to his subordinate report the news of King Wunan's residence.
"This fool is really funny."
"Donkeys can climb the sky?"
"Using peach blossom branches to kill immortals?”
"Did that fool really say those words? Hahaha…"
"If this king had such a foolish son, I would rather strangle him to death!”
"Otherwise, I might die of anger one day.”
Zhang Wanxiong mocked.
"Lu Li, my god, Lu Li, my god. I didn't expect you to lose your integrity in your later years and give birth to such a silly son.”
A young man with a cold gaze also echoed with a smile,
"Lu Litian's youngest son, Lu Ping 'an, is a fool. His second son, Lu Feng' an, is also a brawny man without brains.”
"Only the eldest daughter, Lu Yunshu, has some ability. Unfortunately, she's still a girl!”
"It's destined for the decline of King Wunan's Mansion.”
" Godfather can take the opportunity to gradually take over all of King Wu Nan's forces…"
It turned out that this young man was Zhang Wanxiong's adopted son, Zhang Yangming. His martial arts were strong and he held an important position.
He was one of Zhang Wanxiong's most trusted aides.
"This king knows your majesty's thoughts the best.”
Zhang Wanxiong's eyes were burning.
"King Wu Nan's achievements have shocked the emperor. His Majesty has been wary of him for many years.”
" Your Majesty will only be at ease when all the wings of King Wu Nan are cut off or even uprooted!”
"Since Eunuch Yang An has already brought news, let this Prince help Your Majesty resolve his problems.”
"This time, on Lu Ping 'an's birthday, we can make things difficult for the Wunan King's Mansion!”
As he spoke, Zhang Wanxiong glanced at Zhang Yangming.
"Yang Ming, do you have the confidence to deal with Lu Yunshu?”
"I won't disappoint you, Father!" Zhang Yangming said confidently.”
……
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.
That night.
King Wunan's Mansion.
The moon was bright and the stars were few, and the silver light was bright.
Lu Ping 'an took advantage of the night to stroll around the Imperial Residence.
Sometimes, he would mumble to a tree in a mysterious manner, as if he was having a conversation.
Sometimes, he would hum a strange tune to the moon.
Even though it was late at night, he still pretended to be crazy.
After all, no one knew if there was a pair of eyes staring at their King Wunan's Mansion!
In the Moon Pavilion not far from Lu Ping 'an.
It was where Wu Nan King Lu Litian and his wife Xue Lin lived.
It was midnight, and the couple had yet to fall asleep.
"Furen, you should have heard about the matter of King An Shun committing suicide out of fear of punishment.”
Lu Litian said.
"Husband, I heard that King An Shun was forced to death…"
Xue Lin sounded worried.
Over the years, the old emperor had been eliminating dissidents, and there were already kings with different surnames who had been eliminated in various ways.
As the saying goes, if you want to add a crime, you have no excuse. If the monarch wants the subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die!
"Madam, you don't have to worry too much.”
Lu Litian's voice was firm and confident.
"As long as I'm alive, Martial South will be safe.”
"Nothing will happen to our three children!”
After a while, Lu Litian sighed again.
" The only thing I'm worried about now is that King Wu Nan's Mansion doesn't have a successor…"
"If it really doesn't work out, I can only let Yunshu inherit the title.”
" Although it will be very difficult, and the emperor might use this as an excuse to seize Yun Shu's military power..."
Xue Lin sighed helplessly.”
Their second son, Lu Feng 'an, had limited martial talent. He was brave but not resourceful.
As for his third son, Lu Ping 'an…
Thinking of this, Xue Lin felt a sense of regret and said with a trembling voice,"" This child, Ping 'an, was born with a strange phenomenon. He should have been able to rise to the top…"
Lu Litian comforted her,"
"Madam, no matter what, Ping 'an is still our child. I will definitely protect him.”
"Even if he can't do anything, I will ensure his safety.”
At the same time.
Lu Ping 'an, who was strolling around, did not know about the conversation between his parents.
He felt that it was about time, so he casually returned to his room.
However, he was silently counting down in his heart.
There were still three days left!
He only needed to sign in for another three days to reach the 18th year!
……
Early the next morning.
Lu Ping 'an's residence, in Peach Blossom Garden.
At this moment.
Lu Ping 'an was sleeping soundly in his room.
Suddenly.
An anxious voice sounded in his ears,"Fire!"
Lu Ping 'an was so frightened that he jumped up from the bed. He felt dizzy!
The shouts just now had shaken his head so much that it was buzzing!
"Where is the fire?"
Lu Ping 'an jumped out of bed, but he did not find any signs of fire.
Instead, he saw a valiant figure.
It was a young woman wearing thin silver armor.
The thin armor outlined the woman's figure perfectly, especially her long legs, which were straight and elegant.
At this moment.
Under the young woman's slightly heroic eyebrows, her beautiful eyes looked at Lu Ping 'an and curved into two crescent moons.
"Sister is back. Are you surprised? Are you happy?"
This woman was Lu Ping 'an's elder sister, Lu Yunshu!
When she saw Lu Ping 'an jump up from the bed in fright, her face instantly bloomed with joy!
Lu Ping 'an was speechless.
This big sister was swift and decisive outside, and her heroines were not inferior to men.
However, at home, she had a lively personality and was filial and kind.
Because Lu Ping 'an was crazy, Lu Yunshu had always treated her brother well.
She had stood up for Lu Ping 'an many times.
As for teasing Lu Ping 'an just now, it was just to make this' silly little brother 'happy!
But Lu Yunshu didn't know that Lu Ping 'an was just pretending!
It was one thing for him to disturb his dreams, but he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage. It would be strange if Lu Ping 'an was happy!
"Aiyaya…"
"So it's you, you hag!"
Lu Ping 'an screamed and looked for his peach blossom branch everywhere.
"Where is my Peach Blossom Divine Sword?"
"When I find my divine sword, I'll definitely give you a good beating!”
Even in front of his own sister, Lu Ping 'an couldn't give himself away. He could only accompany her in her madness.
"Hehe, come on!"
"We haven't sparred for a long time. Let me see if you've improved.”
Lu Yunshu didn't care about the term 'hag' at all. Instead, she smiled.
"Third brother, are you looking for this broken branch?”
Immediately after, a burly young man appeared. He had the back of a tiger and the waist of a bear, and he had a valiant expression.
It was Lu Ping 'an's second brother, Lu Feng' an!
At this moment, he was holding Lu Ping 'an's peach blossom branch in his hand.
Lu Ping 'an pursed his lips and shouted,"
"Hey, big fat bear, that's the Peach Blossom Divine Sword that I'll use to kill immortals in the future!”
Although it was not the first time he had heard this title, Lu Fengan still felt quite depressed when he heard it.
His muscles were clearly muscular!
Why did his younger brother call him 'fat'?!
Lu Fengan grunted and said bluntly,"
"Isn't this just an ordinary peach blossom branch? What bullsh * t divine sword…"
As he spoke, he threw the peach blossom branch to the side unhappily and dragged Lu Ping 'an to wash up and change.
Lu Yunshu did not seem to care, but she was sighing in her heart.
"Third Brother is about to turn eighteen, but he doesn't even know how to change his clothes…"
" It would be fine if it was during peaceful times, but now there are undercurrents surging, and a storm is coming…"
Lu Yunshu thought of the crisis that their King Wunan's Mansion was about to face, and a deep worry flashed across her eyes!
