human journey

Chapter 174
But Lu Yu then thought about it, what if the female candidate was ugly and stupid.

Support her to be the leader, she looks ugly, and she is easy to be looked down upon and gossip when talking about alliances with the other two tribes.

It's even worse if you are stupid. Governing hundreds of millions of people is a very complicated matter. In the later stage, three tribes will have to be merged. The conflicts that need to be dealt with and the interests that need to be weighed all require very strong wisdom to do well.

The leader, Yondu, is well-known for being excellent, not only powerful at a young age, but also handsome, smart and articulate.He is often accompanied by the leader, and has long been able to handle the tribe's affairs independently. He is simply the best candidate to be the leader!

Lu Yu had never met them in person and was still undecided. He decided to meet the leader of the Immortal Tribe in the evening, explain the situation to him, and see what he thought.

At night, the bustling Immortal City was still bustling. Lu Yu was walking alone on the street, with people coming and going around him, but it didn't look out of place.

He had been rushing to the leader's residence in the afternoon. The Immortal City was very vast, and Lu Yu didn't deliberately run for half a day.

The leader's residence is called the Immortal Palace, which occupies a large area, as big as more than a dozen football fields. It is surrounded by five palace walls tens of meters high. Each palace wall is guarded day and night by powerful and loyal awakened warriors.

The reason why the defense is so strict in our own city is mainly because the leaders of each generation are not necessarily strong, and the self-protection ability fluctuates. If the guards are weak, and an assassin from another tribe comes, the weak leader will be assassinated up.

Unlike the few cities that Lu Yu passed through before, those leaders can be called the strongest, and they are not afraid of someone killing them at all, so their residences are not well-prepared.

The leader and his relatives live in the Immortal Palace. There are not many relatives who are related by blood, but they are all wives and concubines and servants.

They all live a life of reaching out for clothes, opening their mouths for food, eating well, drinking well, and playing well, and they are very happy.

At the daily banquets, the leaders and relatives drank and talked, indulged and indulged.

While the leader sits in the upper seat, although he embraces his beautiful wife and concubine on the left and right, drinks the wine handed by the concubine on the left, and eats the fruit peeled by his wife on the right, but there is a trace of sadness on his expressionless face, and he has gone through all kinds of hardships. There is a ray of fatigue in the vicissitudes of life in the eyes.

He looked at the adoptive son and niece sitting on both sides of the seat, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although the adoptive son is good, he is not a member of their clan. Let him be the leader, and their bloodline will never be able to serve again. The possibility of a leader.

And after starting this, many people will have more thoughts in the future, causing some turmoil. Even if he is dead by then, they will not want the great Immortal Tribe that has been run by ancestors for generations to be in crisis in his hands.

Let's choose my niece as the leader. Her identity is fine, but she is a woman, not strong, and kind and gentle. How can she hold down the awakened warrior family dominated by male warriors.

It would be great if the two of them could combine. Of course, this is impossible, which is why the leader looks so worried.

He is about to celebrate his [-]th birthday, which is something worth celebrating in the ordinary family. It can be considered as the favor of God that he can live to such an old age smoothly.

But for him, this is an unfortunate thing. Although there are still 30 to [-] years before death, the rapid aging will come, and the powerful strength and the appearance of the prime of life will disappear day by day, year by year.

It is hard for him to accept this fact, who has been awe-inspiring for more than 100 years. Although countless people still look respectful in front of him, they will laugh in their hearts and will no longer be afraid.

But he doesn't have a treasure like Baitian City, which can transfer the soul to be reborn. He can only accept aging and death.

The only thing that can reflect his residual value now is to choose a suitable heir to the leader, but he feels that these two people can't fully match, but there is no other candidate, it is really difficult!

"Father, what's wrong with you, are you still worrying about the two tribes fighting in front of our immortal tribe city without saying a word?

How about I go visit these two tribes, condemn their behavior, and ask them to pay some compensation? What do you think? "

Yondu walked up to the leader and asked respectfully.

"They have already sent someone to send an apology, and they all said that they did not inform us to prevent the other party from inquiring about the combat deployment.

Hmph, actually it's because we didn't take our Immortal Tribe seriously, and afterward, we felt that we couldn't be won over by the other party's apology, so they came to make up for it. "

The leader said angrily, but there was a little helplessness in his tone. Who said they were no better than others?

"I think these two clans have been fighting all the year round, and one day they will lose both. At that time, we, the Immortal Tribe, have the final say. It is not impossible to rule the world!"

Yondu leaned into the leader's ear and whispered.

After hearing this, the leader felt much better, and said with pride.

"Hahaha, my son is right, there will always be a day when my Immortal Tribe will shine!"

Lu Yu came near the Palace of Immortality, looked at the closed gates and the heavily guarded palace walls, and wondered whether to force his way in, but the Palace of Immortality had five walls, so if he rushed in, he would definitely be spotted by the guards.

Isn't that too unfriendly? The first impression given to the leader of the immortal tribe must be very bad, which is not conducive to future development.

Then how do I get in? Tell the guards directly that they are from Sunset City on the other side of the Purple Bamboo Forest, and they are here to discuss cooperation?

But people will definitely think that if you don't come during the day to discuss cooperation, if you insist on coming at night, you will inevitably feel that there is a conspiracy.

Just when Lu Yu was at a loss and couldn't think of any suitable method, and was preparing to come back tomorrow, his keen ears heard a commotion in the Immortal Palace. The guards on the palace walls were moving around frequently, and the number of people was increasing. It seemed that something was going on in the Immortal Palace. thing.

"Be careful. Just now, there was an assassin who failed to assassinate the leader and ran towards us. He will definitely find a way to escape. Let's keep an eye on the palace wall and make it hard for him to fly!"

Someone suddenly shouted on the palace wall.

"Yo ho, assassins appeared as soon as I came, and they ran away from me, God is helping me!"

Lu Yu secretly rejoiced while observing his surroundings carefully.

After a long time, there was commotion on the city wall, and the guards aroused the sound of slashing and killing, and then screamed before death. It seemed that the assassin was about to attack by force.

Sure enough, a bloody figure jumped down from the outermost city wall, right near Lu Yu.

"God really helped me. An assassin appeared and ran towards me and escaped. Am I really the protagonist?"

While thinking wildly, Lu Yu stood in front of the desperately running assassin.

The assassin originally thought that he had succeeded if he could break out of the five palace walls. He ran into a city with tens of millions of people and no one could find him. However, he didn't expect that someone would block him as soon as he came out.

The hope of escaping was only one step away. Naturally, he would not show mercy and directly stabbed Lu Yu's vital part with the dagger in his hand at an extremely fast speed.

It seems that like Piccolo, he has the ability to move, attack, and react quickly as an awakened warrior. He is also powerful and can be called a top master. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape from the layers of powerful guards.

But he was still vulnerable in front of Lu Yu. His reaction speed was faster than him. He stretched out his hand and directly grasped the wrist of the assassin holding the dagger.

In an instant, the assassin's hand and the dagger in his hand seemed to be fixed in the air, and could no longer move an inch. Lu Yu's strength was much stronger than this assassin who was not good at strength, and his body was weak due to inertia. , continue to move forward.

This assassin is also very strong in psychology. Feeling the incomparably powerful force coming from Lu Yu's hand, he is not discouraged. Following the force of his body rushing forward, he stretches out two fingers and quickly inserts them into Lu Yu's only exposed body. Eyes, want to borrow their own extremely fast attack speed, not to fight back, but to create a chance to escape.

The assassin thought he was fast, but in the eyes of Lu Yu, who was highly concentrated, he was still slow. He came last and came first. He held the two fingers extended by the assassin with his other hand, and then casually broke them. It was bent at a weird angle.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, the pain was so great that the determined assassin couldn't help but let out a scream. He knew that he had encountered a super expert, and there was no hope of escaping.

If both hands are caught, then use your feet to resist in order to die in battle.It was much better to die in the hands of this super strong man than to be tortured to death by the people of the Immortal Tribe, but before he even lifted his feet, he was stunned by Lu Yu's hand knife.

Seeing that he fainted, Lu Yu grabbed the lapel of his chest with one hand and held it like a torn sack. With the other hand, he picked up the Heavenly Fire Sword lying on the ground and put it on his shoulder again.

Soon, a large number of guards of Immortal Palace opened the palace gate and rushed out. Seeing Lu Yu carrying the assassin, they were surprised and surrounded Lu Yu first.

"I passed by here and heard you calling for an assassin, and then the man jumped off the palace wall, and I subdued him."

Lu Yu explained.

"Is it such a coincidence? How do I know if you are this person's accomplice? Seeing that he failed, I caught him, went to the palace to invite rewards, and assassinated my adoptive father again!"

Yondu stepped out from the crowd to question.

"He is the adopted son of the leader. He is indeed a good-looking talent, and what he said is quite reasonable. I feel suspicious, so I'd better sneak in first."

Lu Yu thought for a while and then said.

"When this man wakes up, you can ask him and you will know. I am from Sunset City in the east, the most powerful tribe on the vast grassland. I came here through the purple bamboo forest to conspire with your leader. .”

After hearing Lu Yu's words, Yongdu had a strange look in his eyes, but he still acted tough and ordered.

"It's useless to say what you say now, no matter where you come from, you will be treated as an assassin. All soldiers obey orders, take some people down, and if you resist, you will be killed!"
