Chapter 365: Sword Tomb Approval
"Impossible!" Mrs. Lin frowned and refuted.
"Where did this servant come from? How dare you talk nonsense! How old is Lou Jintang? She is just a seven-year-old girl. How can she be the clan leader?!" Mrs. Lin didn't believe it at all and even found it ridiculous.
"Lou Jintang has never learned swordsmanship, what does she know?!" Mrs. Lin scolded loudly.
The servant had come to collect the reward money, but now his eyelids drooped: "Whether it is true or not, Madam Lin will know after going to the front yard."
"Lou Xuyan is seriously injured and his life or death is unknown."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps.
"Madam, the master is seriously injured, with broken bones all over his body. Please go and see him quickly." The head maid had been waiting in the outer courtyard, and now she reported with tears on her face.
Mrs. Lin's whole body went limp, but fortunately the maid helped her quickly and she managed to stand steadily.
The color on his face instantly faded, turning pale and weak.
"how so?"
The head maid cried, "Master has won first place in the advanced field, but Lou Jintang challenged him and knocked Master off the platform with one sword! He lost!"
"Please go and have a look, Madam. I don't know if he can survive this."
Mrs. Lin lost all her strength, was horrified and panicked, and hurriedly ran towards the front yard.
Mother Lou was stunned for a long time.
"Tang'er, have you become the head of the family?"
The servant nodded with a smile: "Yes, Miss Jintang has been invited to the ancestral hall now."
"Madam, you don't have to move out of the main courtyard. This main courtyard is still yours."
Mother Lou hugged her little granddaughter and burst into tears.
Her seven-year-old daughter supported this family that was about to fall apart.
She handed her granddaughter to her personal maid and wiped away her tears: "I'll go to the ancestral hall to take a look. Tang'er is young, I'm afraid she will suffer in front of those elders."
At this moment, Lu Chaochao and his group were standing outside the ancestral hall.
"She is the master who taught me swordsmanship... If she doesn't go in, Tang'er won't go in either!" Lou Jintang stood outside the ancestral hall and refused to step in.
General Lou glanced at the elders and said, "Let Princess Zhaoyang come in."
"The princess has great talent, so why not enter the ancestral hall?"
The elders looked at each other but said nothing.
After all, the swordsmanship taught by Lu Chaochao is really powerful! Who wouldn’t feel excited when seeing this?
They dare not offend.
Lou Jintang walked carefully beside Chao Chao and asked shyly, "Chao Chao, am I... am I considered your disciple?"
Lu Chaochao tilted his head and thought for a while: "Let's count it as half."
"If you don't offer me tea, I can't be considered a disciple for now."
"Wait until I pick an auspicious day and let you meet the seven senior brothers and sisters, then you will be considered an official disciple."
Lou Jintang almost jumped up with joy.
Lu Chaochao values talent very much.
Especially the hardworking female apprentices.
There are a total of seven elders in the Lou family. All of them are present at this moment, standing in the majestic ancestral hall, looking quite solemn.
"Jintang, isn't the sword technique of the Lou family what you learned?" The Great Elder was guarding the forbidden area and heard the news at this moment.
Lou Jintang knelt in the ancestral hall and faced his ancestors: "Yes, Tang'er's swordsmanship was taught by Princess Zhaoyang. This swordsmanship has nine styles, but Tang'er is not very talented and has only learned four styles so far."
Several elders saw the seriousness in each other's eyes. With only four moves, Lou Xuyan would be defeated.
This sword technique is many times better than the Lou family's sword technique.
The elders were polite to Lu Chaochao: "Excuse me, Princess Zhaoyang, does this sword technique have a name?"
"Nine Swords of Chaoyang." Lu Chaochao crossed his legs and crackled melon seeds.
In fact, this sword technique has a name, but Lu Chaochao doesn’t like it.
Pi Tian sword technique.
It is said that if one practices to the extreme, one can create the world, move mountains and fill the sea, and become comparable to gods.
The elders frowned and thought hard, as they seemed to have never heard of this sword technique before.
"Let's not talk about the swordsmanship for now. There must be a set of rules for Jintang's succession ceremony." General Lou looked indifferent. Seeing that they were talking about other things, he couldn't help but guess something in his heart.
The seventh elder was the first to step forward and said, "The winner of the thirty-year competition will be the clan leader. This has been the Lou family's thousand-year rule, and I have no objection!"
The fifth elder was a kind old man, and he looked at Lou Jintang with particularly gentle eyes.
"I have no objection."
The fourth elder said: "It is a blessing for the Lou family to have such an outstanding young generation. I have no objection."
Outside the door, Madam Lin said sadly, "I have objections!!"
"Lou Xuyan's wife has objections! Elders, please seek justice for the clan members!" Mrs. Lin's eyes were red and swollen, and her eyes were full of hatred.
After the little boy reported, he invited Lin in.
Lou's mother came shortly afterwards and stood beside her daughter in silence.
Lin was about to speak but tears started to flow. She knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Elder, please help Xuyan! Lou Jintang is only seven years old. He is so cruel and ruthless at such a young age. He broke all the bones of Xuyan and made him a cripple from now on!!"
"Poor Xu Yan, who worked hard every day, was ruined by his own juniors! How can such a cruel and ruthless person be worthy of being the clan leader?"
"Besides, she has never even entered the Sword Tomb and received its approval. How can she be the clan leader?"
"How can the Lou family hand over a seven-year-old girl? Isn't it a joke?" Mrs. Lin glared at Lou Jintang with gritted teeth, wishing she could tear her to pieces with her own mouth.
Lu Chaochao looked at her with innocent eyes: "Who would have thought that he lived for more than thirty years in vain and couldn't even beat a seven-year-old child."
"This is Sister Tang's first time participating in a competition, and I didn't expect that she would have to let me win."
Lin was so upset that she felt panicky.
"Mrs. Lin, Tang'er is only seven years old and still doesn't understand much. Tomorrow I will personally take Jintang to apologize to Xuyan." Mrs. Lou slowly returned the words to Mrs. Lin.
Lin was so angry that she was shaking all over, her face was ashen: "She ruined Xu Yan's life, and she can let it go with just an apology? Why? I don't accept it!"
Mother Lou sneered, "At the beginning, Lou Xiaofan provoked Qing Mo's wife with words, and she just gave birth and couldn't bear the shock. She hanged herself. You said that the child was young and ignorant, apologized in front of the mourning hall, and a life was spared."
"Why can't Tang'er?"
"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame Lou Xuyan for not being as skilled as others. He's in his thirties and can't beat a seven-year-old. And he's even asking the child to let him go. Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't that shameful!"
"you!"
Lin suddenly shut his mouth and just gasped for breath.
Mother Lou had a cold expression, she didn't care about the position of clan leader, nor did she care who the main courtyard would be given to.
But, it is impossible to give it to Lou Xuyan!
Back then, Qing Mo was on the battlefield, and he couldn't wait for any reinforcements! !
It’s all because Lou Xuyan delayed the military intelligence!
Fifty military sticks in exchange for Qingmo's life. She begged all the elders to seek justice for Lou Qingmo!
However, the Lou family was in a period of transition and had no successor, so in order to protect the overall situation, Lou Xuyan was left behind.
She hated it, she hated it so much, her hair turned white overnight.
Now, her daughter has sought justice for her eldest son in a fair and just manner, and she would be willing to die for it.
"Are we just going to let it go like this? Xuyan's bones are all broken, and he's become a cripple!!" Lin was throwing a tantrum, but she also knew that in the Lou family, strength is everything.
Just like back then, when Lou Xuyan delayed military intelligence but was saved by the Lou family.
"I don't agree with her being the clan leader. She doesn't have the approval of the Sword Tomb! How can she be the clan leader of the Lou family?" Lin insisted on the matter of the Sword Tomb.
The Great Elder pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Jin Tang has not yet been recognized by the Sword Tomb, so the matter of the clan leader is indeed still under discussion."
"In order to serve the tribe members, Jintang will immediately enter the sword tomb and select a spiritual sword!"
Mother Lou felt worried.
Lou Yunzheng had never been recognized by the Sword Tomb and had never obtained the magic sword.
This is also the reason why he has been criticized.
She was a little worried about her daughter.
She is only seven years old. Can she really be recognized by Jianzhong?
