Chapter 40: Reconciler

Inside the Treasure Pavilion.
Director Ji Ya hurried to the room where Fang Ruhai was with a guard from the City Lord's Mansion.
"Pavilion Lord, someone from the City Lord's Mansion." Ji Ya said aloud outside the door.
"Come in." Fang Ruhai's voice came from inside.
Ji Ya took the guard and entered the room.
"Is there something to do with the city lord?" Fang Ruhai looked at the black guard in the city lord's mansion.
He has a very good relationship with the city lord, so if he usually has things, for example, Qiao Ruxue wants him to talk about something, he will directly ask the guards to invite him to the treasure pavilion. Therefore, he was also used to the guards of the City Lord's Mansion coming to Treasure Pavilion.
"My Lord Pavilion, if you have nothing important to deal with right now, Lord City Lord would like to invite you to come over." The guard bowed and said.
"I see, this is over." Fang Ruhai nodded.
The city lord often invites him over, and most of the time, it means drinking tea and chatting, and there is usually no major event. Therefore, he didn't care too much, waved his hand and said to the guards of the city lord mansion.
About less than half an hour later, Fang Ruhai appeared in the city lord's mansion.
Zheng Dongxue, the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, personally led Fang Ruhai to the reception room.
"What's the situation?" Fang Ruhai's heart moved slightly.
Because, when Qiao Ruxue invited him over, he had never been to the reception room of the City Lord's Mansion. This time, it was obviously different, so what was it?
"Steward Zheng, the city lord is looking for me, why?" Fang Ruhai asked casually.
"My Lord Pavilion, I don’t know the specifics, but it should be related to the Wang Family. Just now, Wang Lieyang, the Patriarch of the Wang Family, came to see Lord City Lord. I didn’t know what they were talking about, but soon afterwards, Lord City Lord ordered the guards. Please come over to the Treasure Pavilion." Zheng Dongxue turned around and said.
"Oh, thanks a lot." Fang Ruhai smiled.
"Small things." Zheng Dongxue also waved his hand. There is no need to conceal this information.
Although Zheng Dongxue was an innate powerhouse and the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, he was very respectful in front of Fang Ruhai. Fang Ruhai is a figure of the same level as the city lord, he is a steward, and he really doesn't dare to put on airs in front of him. Of course, Zheng Dongxue is usually more polite to others.
"Pavilion Master Fang is here."
Qiao Ruxue stood up and smiled when seeing the housekeeper walking in with Fang Ruhai.
Wang Lieyang naturally stood up to greet him.
"City Lord!" Fang Ruhai arched his hand to Qiao Ruxue, and then turned his gaze on Wang Lieyang again, "Wang Patriarch is here too!"
"Yes, there is something to find the City Lord, so here, Pavilion Master Fang is good." Wang Lieyang bowed slightly and smiled and said.
"Sit all!" Qiao Ruxue said to the two with a smile.
The three of them all sat down.
Butler Zheng Xuedong retired. If there is anything he needs to know, City Lord Qiao Ruxue will definitely let him stay. Since the city owner didn't say this, he didn't need to stay.
"The city lord asked me to come over, something?" Fang Ruhai's eyes narrowed slightly and smiled.
"There is indeed one thing I want to ask Pavilion Master Fang." Qiao Ruxue nodded.
She glanced at Wang Lieyang, and then said, "Wang Xiaotian, the son of Patriarch Wang, had a battle with Lu Chen from the Lu Family in Zhenbao Pavilion not long ago. I wonder if Pavilion Master Fang knew about this?"
Fang Ruhai frowned when she heard Qiao Ruxue's words.
Fang Ruhai had heard of Ji Ya about the battle between Lu Chen and Wang Xiaotian. Fang Ruhai was also a little surprised at what he had just learned. He didn't expect Lu Chen to be in the realm of marrow washing, and he could defeat Wang Xiaotian, a mid-stage marrow washing cultivator. However, thinking that Lu Chen was already a senior pharmacist at a young age, the defeat of Wang Xiaotian was not enough to shock people.
It seems that some miracles always happen to Lu Chen!
Now, Qiao Ruxue asked him to come over and ask about it. Obviously, it was Wang's Patriarch who asked the City Lord to talk about it.
However, what did Qiao Ruxue ask him, the pavilion master of Treasure Pavilion, to come over?
Could it be that Wang Lieyang still wants to be responsible for this matter himself?
Thinking of this, Fang Ruhai glanced at Wang Lieyang displeasedly. If Wang Lieyang really wanted to make some compensation for himself, then he would find the wrong person.
"I know about this." Fang Ruhai nodded and said, the smile on his face had been lost.
Wang Lieyang had been observing Fang Ruhai's expression, and seeing Fang Ruhai's expression cooling down, his heart suddenly moved.
Could it be that Lu Chen is really Fang Ruhai's bastard?
"Hehe, Patriarch Wang's son was injured by Lu Chen on the martial art meridian on the stage of fighting. So Patriarch Wang was very angry and wanted to ask the Lu Family for an explanation." Of course, Qiao Ruxue also saw Fang Ruhai's displeasure. He chuckled lightly and continued, "It's just that before that, Patriarch Wang wants to confirm his opinion. He got some news that Lu Chen is the illegitimate child of Pavilion Master Fang, and I don't know if this matter is true or false."
Qiao Ruxue herself is actually very curious.
For someone like her, there are not many things that interest her in Qingfeng City.
If Fang Ruhai had an illegitimate child, it would be worth the gossip. Therefore, she also looked at Fang Ruhai with great interest.
"What?" Fang Ruhai's breath suddenly condensed.
Lu Chen, is my illegitimate child?
He did not expect that Qiao Ruxue asked him to come over and asked such a question.
Fang Ruhai's face is a little green!
"This is nonsense!"
"Lu Chen, when did you become my bastard? It's ridiculous!" Fang Ruhai rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"Wang Patriarch, where did you get this news? Don't you know that Lu Chen is Lu Yizhou's son and Lu Tianxing's grandson?" Fang Ruhai was really angry, and was already very dissatisfied with Wang Lieyang.
"This... Pavilion Master Fang, please calm down. It's just a rumor, just a rumor. I just want to confirm it, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." Wang Lieyang quickly expressed his apologies.
He let out a sigh of relief when he heard Fang Ruhai deny it. At this time, Fang Ruhai denied it, so it proved that Lu Chen was indeed not Fang Ruhai's illegitimate child. If it was, Fang Ruhai would definitely not deny it, because Fang Ruhai should be able to determine that he wanted to do something against Lu Chen.
If someone does something to his son, even if he wants to conceal this information that the outside world does not know, he will not deny it.
If Lu Chen is really Fang Ruhai's son, Fang Ruhai will surely challenge him to Wang Lieyang and warn him not to touch Lu Chen.
"Quite your anger!" Fang Ruhai glared his eyes, "Patriarch Wang, you know the rules of Zhenbao Pavilion. Wang Xiaotian is a good son, but in Zhenbao Pavilion, he is not only the resource to fight against Lu Chen, he even took the initiative. Provoking Lu Chen. In this case, even if he is killed by Lu Chen on the fighting platform, you shouldn't trouble Lu Chen or the Lu family."
"Pavilion Master Fang, I also know. However, Lu Chen is too vicious, he ruined Xiaotian's martial arts career. If Xiaotian was only defeated, I would definitely not say a word, but Xiaotian this child, martial arts career It was completely ruined! The martial art meridians were damaged, and he has no hope of breaking through the innate realm in his entire life." Wang Lieyang trembled, and his blood surged.
I don't know if he pretended it, or was really annoyed that he couldn't control it.
"Patriarch Wang, do you have to kill Lu Chen?" Fang Ruhai's eyebrows condensed and said in a deep voice.
"I must let Lu Chen pay the price. Otherwise, people outside will say that my Wang family is afraid of the Lu family." Wang Lieyang gritted his teeth, and also looked at Fang Ruhai.
"Huh, Lu Chen is the honorary pharmacist of my Treasure Pavilion. If you want to move Lu Chen, I can't agree to it." Fang Ruhai also said directly.
You, Wang Lieyang, want to move Lu Chen against our Fang Ruhai. You'd better weigh it before you decide.
In fact, Lu Chen is not the honorary pharmacist of Jumbo Pavilion.
Although Lu Chen and Treasure Pavilion had some cooperation, Treasure Pavilion did not invite Lu Chen to be their honorary pharmacist. Of course, Zhenbaoge did have this plan, but he had not had time to discuss with Lu Chen.
At this time, Fang Ruhai was obviously angry with Wang Lieyang, so he said such words. Of course, he was also determined to keep Lu Chen, a senior pharmacist who cooperated with Zhenbaoge.
"Honorary pharmacist?" Wang Lieyang's eyes fell suddenly, "Hehe, Pavilion Master Fang, I myself have always respected you. However, if you want to prevent me from avenging my son, it may take a lot of effort. ."
Wang Lieyang is not a clay figure either. He was afraid of Fang Ruhai, but if he was in a hurry, he dared to jump out and resist.
"Patriarch Wang, are you threatening me?" Fang Ruhai condensed likewise, staring at Wang Lieyang.
"Two!" Seeing that the two of them met each other, City Lord Qiao Ruxue frowned, stood up and raised her arms slightly.
Fang Ruhai and Wang Lieyang both looked at Qiao Ruxue.
Here, but the City Lord's Mansion!
Even if they have to fight, or even start, it is obviously inappropriate in the City Lord's Mansion.
"Listen to me, I see this, how about you take a step back?" Qiao Ruxue looked at the two of them.
"City Lord..." Wang Lieyang looked gloomy.
"Patriarch Wang, I don't want a large-scale fight in Qingfeng City under my control. I hope you can consider my suggestion." Qiao Ruxue said harshly.
Seeing that Qiao Ruxue seemed to be a little angry, Wang Lieyang fell silent.
"I order someone to invite the Lu family to come over and see if the Lu family can compensate the Wang family." Qiao Ruxue said.
Then, she called the guards in and asked them to invite Lu Jinyun, the head of the Lu family.
Wang Lieyang could only remain silent. If he didn't persevere at this time, it would be tantamount to offending Qiao Ruxue, Fang Ruhai, and the entire Lu family.
The Wang family couldn't bear to offend so many people.
After about half an hour passed, Lu Jinyun came to the City Lord's Mansion.
Although the guards of the City Lord's Mansion didn't say what the City Lord was looking for, but when he saw Wang Lieyang, he knew that it must have something to do with Lu Chen's injury to Wang Xiaotian.
"Good Lord, Good Lord Fang." Lu Jinyun bowed his hands to two of them.
As for Wang Lieyang, he just ignored it.
Before, the relationship between the Wang family and the Lu family was like fire and water. Now that Lu Chen injured Wang Xiaotian, the relationship became even more rigid. greet? forget it!
"Patriarch Lu, please sit down!" Qiao Ruxue nodded politely to Lu Jinyun.
"The city lord asked me to come, what's the matter?" Lu Jinyun asked directly after sitting down.
"Huh!" Wang Lieyang snorted coldly, with a look of horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes.
"It's because of the incident that Wang Lieyang, the son of the king's family lord, was injured by Lu Chen. Now I will be the mediator. I hope you two families will not expand the matter." Qiao Ruxue said.
"This matter..." Lu Jinyun narrowed his eyes.
Thinking of Lu Chen hurting Wang Xiaotian, Lu Jinyun felt refreshed.
You know, there are three major families in Qingfeng City. Although the Lu family is one of the three, it is the weakest among the three families. Compared with the Wang family, they are all somewhat inferior.
