You eloped with the son of luck, and now you regret it and come to me for help?

Chapter 46 Is it possible that it is difficult to guard against a thief within the family?

The sudden crying sound from Chiyan Peak made the great elder who was chasing behind couldn't help but stop and observe.

There was a trace of helplessness and pain in his eyes.

Not far in front of him, it was unknown which word of Qi Qianhui's words touched Lu Guangyan's heart. At this moment, she was crying in despair like a mother animal who had lost her cub, still holding Qi Qianhui tightly in her arms.

Although Qi Qianhui was confused, she subconsciously reached out and hugged Lu Guangyan, and patted Lu Guangyan's back in a proper manner, imitating her father's clumsy comforting behavior.

"Don't cry, don't cry, it doesn't hurt..."

"Don't cry, don't cry, just pat it and it will be fine."

Lu Yanyi, who had been playing with Qi Qianhui, was only seven years old this year. He walked slowly to the side of the great elder and raised his head and said, "Sister Tong won't come back?"

The Great Elder remained silent and said nothing.

After a while, he stretched out his old hand and gently stroked Lu Yanyi's hair, "I will."

It was as if he was speaking to himself, or as if he was making up his mind.

"She will come back to us in another way, and those who hurt her will pay the price."

……

……

The main peak hall.

The people from all the major sects were finally sent away, but one group of them kept looking back, reluctant to leave.

If it weren't for the Lu family's strict rules and Lu Ren's extreme inhumanity, they would probably want to live here directly.

Although they left, the sound transmission jade pendant remained.

Lu Guangyang was holding a bunch of sound-transmitting jade pendants in his arms, and his face seemed to be even paler.

He shook his head, put them away, turned his head and looked at the maid who had been following him, "Where did the master go?"

The maid tilted her head and pointed behind the main peak.

Through her slightly opened lips, one could see her dark mouth, with only a short tongue with a broken root inside, and densely packed spells on it.

Lu Guangyang looked in that direction thoughtfully.

That must be... Red Flame Peak.

A faint smile passed across his lips, and he shook his head and let the maid push him back, sighing in his heart.

Although the head of the family looks cold, only the Lu family knows that he is the most gentle person. Otherwise, how could the entire Lu family obey him and be willing to entrust their lives to him.

Red Flame Peak.

Lu Guangyan has calmed down, but still feels a little embarrassed.

She apologized softly, "Maybe I was having a nightmare, so I did something inappropriate. I'm really sorry."

Qi Yi already knew what happened here. Ever since he arrived here, he has remained silent, with deep sympathy in his eyes.

He didn't blame Lu Guangyan. If he had lost his daughter, he didn't even dare to think about what he would do.

Seeing Qi Yi remained silent, Lu Guangyan thought that Qi Yi was dissatisfied with her statement. She looked at the scars on Qi Qianhui's wrists with guilt, pursed her lips, and took out something from her storage bag: "I think this child seems to have mental defects. I have a wisdom-enhancing grass here, which may be of some use. Consider it my apology."

Qi Yi was stunned.

He wanted to refuse, but this thing was not only hard to find, but it was also the spiritual herb that would be used in the prescription that Qi Qianhui needed.

Qi Yi was a little embarrassed: "Although I shouldn't take advantage of someone's misfortune, Qian Hui really needs this. I thank you on Qian Hui's behalf."

After he accepted it, Lu Guangyan's expression softened a little.

She looked at Qi Qianhui and couldn't help but be distracted.

If she had a daughter, it would be like this...

Seeing Qi Yi leading Qi Qianhui to leave, Lu Guangyan felt an inexplicable urge in her heart, which kept driving her to speak. She looked at Qi Qianhui's figure walking away, and her eyes were unconsciously stained with tears.

In the blur, she seemed to see a quirky girl with her hair tied high, holding a sword, with a bright smile, and wearing a light yellow dress. She was waving at her from a distance and walking away.

A huge panic struck Lu Guangyan's heart, causing her tears to flow more and more violently.

She took a step forward almost uncontrollably.

"Qiyi, are you willing to let Qianhui recognize me as her godmother?"

"Um... Elder Yan, I wonder if you are willing to adopt a goddaughter?"

The two of them spoke almost at the same time, and were stunned at the same time after speaking.

Qi Yi didn't know why he said that.

Maybe it was out of pity for a mother who had lost her child, or maybe it was because she hoped her daughter could join the Lu family, but...

He calmed himself down, showed his usual honest look, and said with a simple smile: "If Elder Yan is willing, that would be great!"

And for this matter, we should find a witness.

Qi Yi originally intended to be the Great Elder.

But when he turned his head, he saw Lu Ren who had arrived here at some point. He was a little surprised and hurriedly bowed and greeted: "Greetings, Master Lu!"

Qi Qianhui also saw it, and a sweet smile appeared on her innocent face, "Handsome big brother!"

"Ah."

To everyone's surprise, Lu Ren actually responded, ruffled Qi Qianhui's hair, and walked to the great elder.

"Since Elder Yan is interested and Qiyi has no objection, let's choose an auspicious day to become godparents."

"However, if you don't walk the path of self-examination, you can't enter the Lu family."

The last sentence was directed to Qi Yi.

The huge surprise came straight out of nowhere and almost stunned Qi Yi.

He clasped his fists in joy and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you very much! Thank you for your help, Patriarch. Don't worry, I, Lu Yi, will go through fire and water for the Lu family in the future, without hesitation!"

Lu Ren: ...

The only person who could make him speechless so many times was Qi Yi.

He waved his hand, "No need, I don't force anyone to have the last name Lu."

After hearing this, Qi Yi agreed dryly. Looking at his expression, he smacked his lips, as if he felt a little regretful.

Lu Ren came here not for Qi Qianhui's matter, this was just something he did conveniently.

He looked at the Great Elder and ordered, "Great Elder, have you sorted out the list for the auction? Distribute a copy to each of the major families so that they can prepare their spiritual stones as soon as possible."

When the order was given that day, the Great Elder had already made preparations. Now it is just a list, so it should be ready.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Lu Ren's question, the Great Elder not only did not agree immediately, but frowned, as if he had encountered some obstacle.

His brows furrowed, "This... should have been prepared, but some things in the warehouse seem to have been stolen."

Lu Renben was about to leave after asking the question, but who would have thought that the Great Elder would say such words, which immediately stopped him in his tracks.

Lu Ren raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Stolen?"

This is somewhat interesting.

The Lu family's protective formation is not something that anyone can enter. Once you enter, you will definitely touch the formation, especially in such a private place as the clan treasury. But not only did the Great Elder not feel anything, but Lu Ren also didn't feel anything.

Could it be that it’s hard to guard against thieves within the family?
