Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning
Chapter 164 164 Frankness
1st Honesty
A person of Wushan bloodline with huge cultivation talent and pure identity is too important to Rulans.
So after he finished the main things, he came to Luo Ning and asked in person.
For Luo Ning, he knew that once his strength was exposed, it would definitely attract everyone's attention, including Lu Lans.
However, the question of how to explain strength has been a problem that has always troubled him.
The only thing that made him feel relaxed was that the person who asked this question was Lu Lansi, and the other person would not have any thoughts about him that "if the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it".
"Grandpa, actually a few days ago my strength was still at its advanced peak."
Luo Ning thought for a while and then told the actual situation, "But now, I am a real bronze knight."
When he spoke, he directly activated his fighting spirit.
Lulans could roughly sense it with just a moment's notice. This kind of fighting spirit was stronger than that of ordinary high-level knights. It was said that it was fully qualified for bronze level.
"very good!"
He seemed to be a little nervous as he grasped the crutch tightly, lifted it up, and put it down again.
Perhaps because he was too excited, he failed to control his strength, and the crutch hit the floor heavily, making a squeezing sound.
"very good!"
After all, Rulans couldn't conceal his excitement and burst out laughing.
"After thirty years of silence, our Wushan family finally has the possibility of rising strongly!"
He was radiant at the moment, and his fatigue and illness were gone, "Luoning, I see the shadow of your Uncle Grimes in you!"
Lu Lan paused for a moment and continued: "However, you are better than your uncle now!"
Luo Ning still underestimated the impact and joy his strength would bring to the opponent.
"Thank you grandpa for the compliment."
Luo Ning smiled and said: "Actually, if Blanche hadn't been assassinated this time, I wouldn't have wanted to expose my strength so early. After all, the Wushan Territory seems to be unstable now."
Lulans took two deep breaths to calm down his excitement.
"The current Wushan territory has unruly vassals and powerful enemies outside. It is indeed not very stable as you said."
He knew the situation of Wushan collar very well, and his tone was a little decadent.
"However, if you had shown your talent earlier, even if it was just a little bit revealed to me, I would not have driven you to Hillwood Town."
"There's nothing bad about Hillwood Town."
Luo Ning argued: "Becoming the baron of Hillwood Town has at least allowed me to disappear from the public eye for nearly half a year. Otherwise, I might have experienced an assassination like my father."
At this point, he couldn't help but shake his head, "I don't want to lose a leg like my father, or lose an arm like Baron Hermann."
Lulans was stunned.
He seemed to understand why Luo Ning wanted to hide his strength silently, and was even willing to go to Shanlin Town - just for the sake of peace before becoming powerful.
"You are wiser than I thought."
Rulans' eyes flashed, as if there were bad memories surging, "In the past, if Grimes hadn't been so sharp, maybe he wouldn't have been assassinated."
Thirty years ago, the 24-year-old Grimes' combat power was comparable to that of a peak bronze-level knight.
Many people believe that within a few years, a knight more powerful than Rulans will appear in the Wushan Territory, possibly at the Silver Moon level or the Sun level.
For any kingdom or great lord, they don't care about low-level knights, but high-level knights, especially those above meteor level, cannot be underestimated anywhere.
And people like Silver Moon are known as the enemies of thousands of people!
A Silver Moon level is equivalent to an army. Unless a transcendent of the same level, it is almost difficult to defeat this kind of existence.
It can be said that Grimes's performance put pressure on many nobles who did not want to see Oshan leading the good.
That calculation probably had this reason as well.
Lulans did not continue to ask Luo Ning when he awakened the seeds of fighting spirit and when he became a high-level knight.
Because these issues are not important. What is important is that his grandson is now at the bronze level.
"What are you going to do next?"
Lulans changed the subject, "I think Blanche's attitude towards you is very good. Maybe this marriage can be successful."
"At that time, His Majesty the King may reward you, and you can take the opportunity to be loyal to His Majesty Bruno, become a noble of the kingdom, and have the opportunity to obtain a larger territory."
Although the baron of Oshan Territory and the baron of Alduin Kingdom are both barons, their loyalties are different.
"Being a vassal of the king, does it mean that I have to give up Hillwood Town?" Luo Ning asked.
Lulans nodded, "That's natural."
Luo Ning has already regarded Shanlin Town as his second hometown, and he also discovered sericulture and kaolin clay. How could he be willing to give up Shanlin Town?
What's more, the territory rewarded by the king also has a lot of uncertainty.
If the territory is located in a more chaotic area, it is better to be stable in the north of Wushan Territory.
"Then I would rather be loyal to you, grandpa." Luo Ning said with a smile.
"Of course that's okay!"
Lulans laughed, "Besides Shanlin Town, there is only Thain Territory in the north of Wushan Territory. When the time comes, they will all be assigned to you, which will be enough for your business and development."
Speaking of this, he thought of Luo Ning's previous claim to the Thain Territory.
"Then what leverage does Leisen have in your hands? Are you absolutely confident that you can take him down?"
After experiencing this incident, Lu Lansi felt more at ease with Luo Ning. The reason why he asked this was mainly out of curiosity.
He guessed that there should be some things happening to Luo Ning that he didn't know about yet.
Luo Ning pondered slightly, and Lu Lansi did not urge him.
After a long while, he said: "Grandpa, do you think this assassination incident is related to the Skull and Bones society that assassinated my father?"
Rulans shook his head, "I listened to Toru's report, and there is currently no evidence pointing to the Skull and Bones Society. To be precise, the investigation of this assassination incident is likely to yield no results."
"If we can only attribute the assassination of the princess to the Colosseum auditors, it will only appear that Wushanbao is too incompetent."
Luo Ning said: "We need a stronger scapegoat."
"The scapegoat?"
"It's the one who takes the blame."
Rulans suddenly understood this new word more vividly, "Do you want Leisen from Thane to be the one who takes the blame?"
Ronin nodded.
"On the 7th of this month, I was assassinated by the Skull and Bones Society in Hillwood Town, but the assassin knew too little about me. Not only did the assassination fail, I was also captured alive."
As he spoke, he took out the testimony given by Shadow from his arms and handed it to Rulans.
Anger towards the Skull and Bones Society flashed in Rulans's eyes.
He didn't expect that this organization would not only attack his son, but also his grandson. It really wanted to cut off his descendants!
When he saw clearly the contents of the letter, he became even more angry.
"The Thain family has been following Wushan for two or three generations. I didn't expect Leisen to do such a disloyal thing!"
Lulans handed the testimony back to Luo Ning, "Where is the assassin? Did you bring it?"
"No, he is still under my custody at Shanlin Castle."
Ronin refolded the testimony and put it away, "However, I brought another witness, who can also prove that Leisen wanted to kill me and took action."
"Oh? Who is it?"
Ronin glanced at the door and said, "Tom, come in."
