Chapter 831 The popular Lu Yang
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, the two major figures in "The Legend of Taoism", were even given two character chapters by Buyu Taoist to tell their stories. The two of them can be said to be famous all over the world.
Whether they are monks from other places or local monks in the Imperial City, they have all heard of their names.
The local monks in the Imperial City know more. For example, they know how prestigious Meng Jingzhou once was in the Imperial City.
If he hadn't run away from home later, there wouldn't be any four young masters of the Imperial City.
Recently, Lu Yang's name is bigger than that of Meng Jingzhou. Taoist Wuyu's promotion to the Tribulation Stage has attracted much attention, and Lu Yang has also attracted attention.
Lu Yang held his forehead. He didn't expect that he was so famous, so Lao Meng shouted "Lao Lu" and his identity was guessed.
In this case, there is no need to pretend.
Lu Yang also took off his mask, revealing the face that is well known to the world.
“It’s really him!”
“You are Lu Yang!” Li Zhuo’s attention shifted to Lu Yang.
There was some connection between his grandfather and Taoist Buyu, so his grandfather told him that if he met Lu Yang in the future, he must teach him a lesson.
Now he feels that it is good if he can protect himself.
"Xiao Zhuo, you are so arrogant. You have no place to eat and you still take other people's places. Why didn't you act like this when you were hanging out with me before?"
Li Zhuo smiled in apology and did not dare to speak.
"Uncle Xu, don't worry about us. Let's go shopping around the Imperial City."
“Okay.” Xu You smiled and left Tianxiang Tower.
“Master Meng, shall I leave too?” Li Zhuo asked cautiously, retreating quietly.
"Wait a minute, what are you going to do? When I called out the price just now, I said that I would pay for today's consumption. Since the final price is high, shouldn't you also fulfill this promise?"
"Young Master Meng is right, that's right." Li Zhuo dared not say a word. He just wanted to get away from Meng Jingzhou quickly. He didn't want any spiritual stones or female companions.
“Okay, get out.”
Li Zhuo was granted amnesty and quickly left Tianxiang Tower.
…
The news of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou's appearance quickly spread throughout the imperial city.
"What, the apprentice of the old thief Fuyu has appeared?" The Minister of the Ministry of Affairs couldn't sit still when he heard this. His cultivation talent was limited and there was no hope of surviving the tribulation, so he did not retreat.
He thought he would never have a chance to defeat Taoist Buyu in his life, but unexpectedly, a God-given opportunity came, and Taoist Buyu’s young disciple came to his door.
“Son, come here, how are you doing with your cultivation recently?” The Minister of Civil Affairs called his youngest son, who was the most ambitious of all his sons and had the best talent for cultivation.
The son of the Minister of Civil Affairs is so handsome that he can make little girls turn their heads when he walks on the street.
“Thanks to the elixir provided by my father, I haven’t encountered too many bottlenecks. I am now at the peak of Yuanying.”
The Minister of Civil Affairs nodded and said, "I heard that some people outside are already calling you Tianjiao?"
The son of the Minister of Civil Affairs showed a confident smile: "I don't dare to be a proud man, it's just the praise of the world, but when it comes to fighting, I have never been defeated."
"That's good. Lu Yang, Taoist Buyu's young disciple, is here. My father can't fight against the old thief Buyu. Now my father is counting on you. You go and compete with Lu Yang."
"Huh?" The son of the Minister of Libu was dumbfounded. He was indeed a genius, but there was no way he could compare with a genius like Lu Yang who won the championship at the 120,000th anniversary celebration of Taoism.
That is a monster who can compete with Master Lu.
If I were so good at fighting, why would I be hanging around in the Imperial City? I would just join the Tianting Sect.
…
"Grandpa, I was bullied by Meng Jingzhou and Lu Yang." Li Zhuo returned to Zuo Xiangfu and complained. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. However, he was no match for Meng Jingzhou and Lu Yang, so he could only seek help from his grandfather. .
Grandpa, the Meng family and Buyu Taoist people all have festivals. If there is a chance to regain the situation, he will definitely take action!
“You mean, the old thief Fuyu’s apprentice is here too?”
“Mainly because of that Meng Jingzhou, he is simply bullying others too much!” Li Zhuo said angrily, but he didn’t care much about Lu Yang.
The left prime minister turned a deaf ear and continued to talk to himself: "You said that if you worship Lu Yang as your eldest brother, then you and Lu Yang will become peers, and Taoist Taoist monks will become my sons. Is this true?"
"ah?"
“Ah, why don’t you recognize Lu Yang as your eldest brother quickly!”
…
Lu Yang returned to the Meng Mansion, and invitations were delivered like snowflakes and filled the table.
“So many, it’s quite popular.” Meng Jingzhou joked.
Although he has many enemies in the Imperial City, he is still the eldest young master of the Meng family. Those who don't like him dare not come to him openly.
Lu Yang drew a line in the middle of the table and introduced it to Meng Jingzhou: "The one on the left is the letter of invitation to fight, and the one on the right is the letter of sworn oath."
“The letters of petition are all written by the sons of the master’s enemies, and the letters of sworn oath are all written by the grandsons of the master’s enemies.”
“Please tell me what you are afraid of, just fight me.”
Lu Yang sighed quietly: "Of course I'm not afraid of fighting alone, but the problem is that these are joint petitions."
In other words, they planned to fight in groups.
Meng Jingzhou scratched his head. This was indeed difficult to handle. Lu Yang couldn't be stupid enough to fight in a group, nor could he recognize a group of younger brothers.
If he goes out regardless of these invitations, it cannot be ruled out that Lu Yang will be attacked by someone secretly, or someone will hold him in his lap and ask him to recognize him as his eldest brother.
“There is a way.” Meng Jingzhou suddenly had an idea and came up with a solution.
"any solution?"
…
Luotian Forest is a small forest located in the Imperial City. Monks come here all year round to sense the spirit of the wood spirit.
Today Luotian Forest is more lively than before, with officials and disciples from aristocratic families gathered here.
“Have you also received a reply from Lu Yang?” Li Zhuo had a good relationship with the son of the Minister of Libu, and the two met to chat.
“That’s right, they said that we should come to Luotian Forest to solve the problem, but why haven’t we seen anyone for most of the day?” The son of the Minister of Libu wondered.
Just when everyone was confused, they saw Meng Jingzhou jumping down from the tree crown.
“Everyone, please be quiet. If anyone talks again, I will ask my family to increase the interest rate for you.”
Suddenly no one was talking anymore.
“I think you all know the purpose of calling everyone here today. It’s all for my brother Lu Yang.”
"Some of you bear the hatred of the older generation and want to challenge Lu Yang. Some of you want to take advantage of our sect master and worship Lu Yang as your eldest brother. These are all understandable."
"But there is only one Lu Yang. If you all come up in a swarm, he will definitely not be able to defeat him. If you all come in swarm to be my eldest brother, he will not be able to accept it."
“In order to solve this problem, Lu Yang and I discussed it and decided to hold a competition.”
“Competition?” Everyone frowned, not understanding what Meng Jingzhou meant.
“As the saying goes, the strong are respected, and the strong have privileges.”
“This competition is named the First Luyang Competition. The competition adopts a group system, with teams of two competing against each other. The winner can participate in the next round until the champion is finally determined.”
While everyone was still digesting Meng Jingzhou's meaning, suddenly a big red box as tall as a person fell from the sky and landed in front of Meng Jingzhou. It was exquisitely packaged.
Meng Jingyu, who was standing on the tree, took a few breaths. She threw the box out.
Meng Jingzhou opened the box three times, revealing Lu Yang who was tied to a chair, and introduced him solemnly.
“And this is the prize of this competition—Lu Yang.”
“As long as you win the competition, it doesn’t matter whether you challenge Lu Yang or worship him as your big brother.”
