Zongwu: The Rise of the Little People

As a well-educated person.

Zhao Xu has always been "hungry" for knowledge.

Meeting such a knowledgeable and versatile person today, it is natural for me to have some exchanges with him.

It is always easy for people of the same kind to establish friendships. They have a pleasant conversation and gradually deepen their understanding of each other.

Zhao Xu's knowledge is both broad and profound, and he has his own unique insights on many issues.

Gradually, Lu Miaozi began to treat Zhao Xu as no longer a junior.

The world has been full of ups and downs for decades.

Lu Miaozi has experienced a lot and met many brilliant people.

He is on good terms with the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian, so when the Evil King Shi Zhixuan sees him, he has to respectfully address him as "Master Lu".

When Yang Su, the Duke of Chu who was once in power, built Yanggong's treasury, the first person he thought of was this "first skilled craftsman in the Sui Dynasty."

These people have achieved great success in their respective fields, even Lu Miaozi himself cannot compare to them.

But when it comes to the breadth of knowledge and scope of coverage, I still cannot compare with him.

It is difficult for Lu Miaozi to find someone who is completely compatible with her.

The appearance of Zhao Xu can be said to be his biggest surprise in recent years.

Thinking about his current situation, Lu Miaozi slowly began to have an idea.

He intended to let Zhao Xu inherit his knowledge and at the same time find a support for his daughter.

Thinking of this, Lu Miaozi became a little anxious.

Zhu Yuyan's arrival time is uncertain, so we must hurry.

If the situation changes at that time, he will fight with her to the death, allowing Zhao Xu to take the opportunity to escape and pass on what he has learned.

Having made up his mind, Lu Miaozi said:

"Zhao boy, I have never met another person like you in my life. I want to pass on to you what I have learned over the years. How about that?"

Lu Miaozi's sudden decision made Zhao Xu surprised and a little stunned.

"Senior, you are very knowledgeable, so I am willing to do it, but..."

Seeing that Zhao Xu was willing, Lu Miaozi was very happy and raised her hand to interrupt him.

"Whether I can survive this or not, my life is coming to an end and I won't live for many more years. I really don't want all the knowledge I have learned to be buried in the earth with me."

At this point, Lu Miaozi paused for a moment, looking somewhat guilty, and continued:

"And Xiuxun, she is alone in controlling the Pegasus Ranch. Now she has my support, but I hope you can take care of her in the future!"

There was an unusually bleak tone in his words.

The remaining true energy of Zhu Yuyan has been eroding Lu Miaozi over the years.

The vitality of his body is almost gone, and even the gods cannot save him.

Zhao Xu was also helpless.

At the same time, another doubt arose in my mind.

"Senior and Xiang Yutian are old acquaintances. He gave you the evil emperor's relic for safekeeping. Why has he been doing this for so many years?"

Lu Miaozi understood Zhao Xu's doubts and reminded him:

"He is no longer an ordinary person. Don't try to guess what he is thinking before you have sufficient strength!"

Lu Miaozi has always had a shadow over Xiang Yutian. Such a person is really scary.

I was foolish enough to accept the evil emperor's relic back then, and have lived a miserable life for half my life. I have no idea what his plan was.

Zhao Xu knew how terrifying Xiang Yutian was, but he was still very interested in the Evil Emperor's relics.

Lu Miaozi naturally understood Zhao Xu's thoughts and asked:

"The evil emperor's relic is in the treasure house. You can try to see if you can use it, but be careful!"

Regardless of whether Xiang Yutian had any plans, such a person stood too high and was too far away from them.

Zhao Xu decided to accept Lu Miaozi's inheritance, and he bowed respectfully.

"Master Lu!"

……

Lu Miaozi was very happy, Zhao Xu was also very happy, but Shang Xiuxun, the owner of Shangdachang, was a little depressed.

Overnight, Zhao Xu became Old Man Lu's successor. What happened?

The relationship between Shang Xiuxun and Lu Miaozi is very strange.

Although Lu Miaozi was with Shang Xiuxun's mother Shang Qingya at that time, she could not forget Zhu Yuyan, which led to her death in depression.

For this reason, Shang Xiuxun could never forgive him.

It was not until some time ago that Lu Miaozi encountered danger when he went out, escaped injured and was discovered by Shang Xiuxun.

He knew that Zhu Yuyan might attack at any time, and that he would not live long!

The relationship between father and daughter improved.

Noon the next day.

When he saw Shang Xiuxun again, Zhao Xu noticed that something was wrong with her expression.

I understood in my heart that it seemed that the other party had already learned what happened last night from Lu Miaozi.

Both parties were a little embarrassed at this time and didn't know how to address each other.

In the end, it was Zhao Xu who broke the deadlock first. He slowly said:

"Senior Sister already knows everything?"

Shang Xiuxun didn't say anything, but just nodded, as if agreeing to Zhao Xu's address.

She is a little older than Zhao Xu, so it is appropriate to call her that.

"division……"

Although she tacitly acknowledged the relationship, Shang Xiuxun couldn't speak for a moment.

"Senior sister, just call me Xiaoxu."

Shang Xiuxun felt a lot more relaxed after hearing what Zhao Xu said.

"Xiao Xu, you can call me Xiu Xun from now on."

Zhao Xu was somewhat happy and said:

"Xiu Xun."

"Um"

Shang Xiuxun's feelings towards Zhao Xu are very different from others.

In Pegasus Ranch, she is the high and mighty owner, naturally superior to everyone else.

Most of the other people coming from outside come here to do business. They all have their own calculations and strong interests.

Only Zhao Xu is different. Not only is he on an equal footing with himself and has no major interest relationship with him, he is now also known as the successor of Old Man Lu.

In this era where master and apprentice are like father and son, Zhao Xu is the person closest to Shang Xiuxun, except for Lu Miaozi.

The scene was quiet for a while, and Shang Xiuxun took the initiative to speak:

"I don't know when the Yinkui Sect of this enchantress Zhu Yuyan will come. What do you think, Xiaoxu?"

Shang Xiuxun has no good feelings towards Zhu Yuyan.

Zhao Xu knew that she was worried that the Yinkui Sect would launch a massive attack.

Zhao Xu had already thought about this.

"Xiuxun, you don't have to worry too much about the Yinkui Sect."

"There are signs of chaos in the world again. Most of the Yinkui Sect's personnel must be scattered around now, accumulating strength and waiting for the right time."

"Plus, with the White Dao forces suppressing them, they will never come in large numbers!"

Zhao Xu's analysis was well-reasoned and Shang Xiuxun was convinced after hearing it.

At the same time, she was relieved.

Although she knew that it was unlikely that the Yinkui Sect would launch a large-scale attack on Pegasus Ranch, she had been worried about this for some time.

Now, after Zhao Xu's analysis, she suddenly understood and felt much more relaxed.

Zhao Xu did not stop and continued:

"Master Zhu's target is only Master Lu, so he must travel light this time, with only a small number of experts accompanying him."

"So Xiuxun, you don't have to make a big move in Shancheng. The key lies in the battle between me and Sect Master Zhu."

Compared to Shang Xiuxun, Zhao Xu's way of addressing Zhu Yuyan was much more respectful, even though the two were now in an antagonistic relationship.

However, Shan Meixian and Shan Wanjing are related to him by blood, so Zhao Xu always maintains respect in his words.

Shang Xiuxun nodded, agreeing with Zhao Xu's opinion.

After Zhao Xu's analysis, Shang Xiuxun understood the next arrangements.

For the next period of time, everything seemed normal at Pegasus Ranch.

Secretly, several of Shang Xiuxun's trusted subordinates have been on standby and on guard.

Zhao Xu stayed in his cozy nest every day, returning to the Bird Park from time to time. He lived a pretty carefree life.

Of course, this is just an appearance.

One night half a month later.

Zhao Xu, who was lying on the bed, felt something and opened his eyes.
