DRAGON EMPEROR
CHAPTER 14 Meeting



The Lu Family training field was located on the eastern side of the Lu Family Residence. It was extremely spacious and had no trouble accommodating a hundred thousand people.


In the middle of the training field, there was a giant stage made of stone with a width and length of two hundred meters.


There are magnificent grandstands built on the north, east, and west sides of the training ground.


The northern tribune was the main tribune, reserved for the Lu Family. The eastern and western tribunes were reserved for the influential families of Fire Wind City.


Just then, seven gray-haired old men sat at the top of the stands. These elders were the seven elders who were the core of the Lu Family elder Hall.


The Core Elders in the Council of Elders of the Lu Family were all handpicked by their families as the most qualified and renowned members. They all worked for the sake of the Lu Family, which was why they were the most appropriate and unbiased towards a certain branch; ultimately putting the best interests of the Lu Family first.


Lu Yunxiong, the First Branch Elder of the Lu Family, sat a bit far below. Beside him, a girl of about fifteen years old also sat down. Wearing a dress as white as snow, her beauty was indescribable. It was Lu Yao.


“Older of the First Branch Lu, congratulations! I heard your daughter has unparalleled talent, awakening the Fifth Level blood meridian. His future is unlimited!”


The leader of the Li Family, Li Fu, congratulated the First Branch Elder with flattery.


“Thank you,” replied Elder First Branch simply.


All the other families and famous figures in Fire Wind City then approached the First Branch Elder to congratulate him.


The First Branch Elder simply nodded as a receipt.


Roars! Roars!


At that moment, the roar of a savage beast sounded from a faraway path. The voice pierced through the sky as if there were tens of thousands of demons charging in.


After a while, over ten blood-red giant tigers appeared in front of the audience. It was two meters tall and more than four meters wide.


A silhouette dressed in fiery red clothes sat on top of each giant tiger, and a ferocious aura as well as hot breath spread throughout the area.


“Fire Tiger. They are from the White Tiger Hall, one of the Five Halls of the Mystical Sword Sect.”


Could it be that they were from the Duanmu Family Master?


There was a call coming from the crowd.


“For the White Tiger Hall to take the initiative of sending someone there, could it be that they intend to recruit Lu Yao as his disciple?” Someone guessed.


The First Branch Elder stood up in a woosh voice and descended the stands, his face filled with excitement. “To visit the White Tiger Hall of the Mystical Sword Sect, it is my fault for not welcoming you outside the gate. Please forgive me!" he clenched his fists.


“Haha, you are too polite, First Branch Elder! I am Duanmu Qing, who works in the White Tiger Hall of the Mystical Sword Sect. I am here today to congratulate Lu Yao on his appointment as the Ruler of the Lu Family, and also officially recruit Lu Yao as a disciple of the White Tiger Hall, he said,” said a middle-aged man in bright red clothes who was sitting on the table. The largest Fire Tiger.


“You are too polite, messenger. Please sit down,” replied the First Branch Elder with a smile.


Duanmu Qing smiled. He and the other two men descended from their Flame Tigers and arrived at the main tribune. Other people pointed their Flame Tigers aside.


“It looks like Lu Yao does have a frightening talent. There were still two more months before the Mystic Sword Sect officially recruited disciples, and usually people who would approach them. They have to go through a rigorous exam, and only those who pass can join. Truly a rare sight for the Mystic Sword Sect to come personally and recruit someone.”


"Indeed! They said that Lu Yao had attracted the attention of a genius from the Duanmu Family from the Mystical Sword Sect. His future looks very promising!”


“The Lu family has truly become an incredible genius this time around, which even surpasses Lu Yuntian!”


The people around were discussing warmly.


Scream!


At that moment, a loud and sharp cry echoed in the sky. Even from a distance, his voice could still be heard.


The eyes of the crowd were involuntarily fixed in that direction. Then, their eyes widened in admiration.


There was a giant snow-white goshawk with a wingspan of fifty meters.


It had sharp claws like blades, and its eyes were extremely sharp. The crowd shivered and sweated as the goshawk observed the people.


Several figures stood on top of the goshawk.


“A silent snow eagle. It was a silent snow eagle from Vermillion Bird Hall belonging to the Mystical Sword Sect.”


“Even Vermillion Bird Hall has arrived!”


Throng throngs.


“I'm Liu Qian from Vermillion Bird Hall in Mystic Sword Sect. I came today to represent the Vermillion Bird Hall to recruit Lu Yao as his disciple,” said a woman around thirty years old, gracefully perched atop a silent snow eagle.


Shhtt...


At that moment, an enormous flying snake soared from a distance. It had a ferocious aura that seeped throughout the place.


“I'm Gao Shi from Onyx Tortoise Hall, representing my hall to recruit Miss Lu Yao as a disciple.” Another voice followed.


The kingdom where Lu Ming was located was named the Kingdom of the Blazing Sun.


The Blazing Sun Empire occupied a vast territory. Fiery Wind City was merely a mere city when compared to an empire. The total imperial-controlled cities numbered at least ten thousand.


There were five sects in the entire Blazing Sun Empire, they were the dominant force that was at the top of the stairs. Strategically located in the center of the Blazing Sun Empire, they were the ones who ruled the empire.


The Mystical Sword Sect occupied a large amount of territory in the Blazing Sun Empire. Fiery Wind City was located at the easternmost point of the empire, which was within the jurisdiction of the Mystical Sword Sect.


The Mystical Sword Sect was divided into five halls, namely Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Onyx Tortoise, Vermillion Bird, and Qilin.


The Duanmu Family was the main family of the White Tiger Hall of the Mystical Sword Sect.


Even though the five halls were from the same sect, there was bound to be open competition and covert struggles.


Thus, each hall naturally wanted to recruit a genius into their own ranks when one appeared.


The arrival of the four halls in a row caused a commotion.


"Kill up! From the Five Hall of the Mystical Sword Sect, there were four who came! They all wanted to accept Miss Lu Yao as a disciple! It's unbelievable!"


"I know?! The Mystical Sword Sect oversaw nearly two thousand cities. The five halls stood high above the masses, it was rare for them to send representatives to recruit disciples, but this time there were four! Amazing, what a marvel!”


The crowd around was discussing warmly.


It made sense for the White Tiger Hall to send a representative to recruit Lu Yao as a disciple, since she had a marital relationship with the Duanmu Family from the White Tiger Hall.


However, there were three other halls that also sent someone with the intention of recruiting Lu Yao as their disciple. It was a testament to Lu Yao's impressive talent that even shocked the other hall.


As the four halls of the Mystical Sword Sect wanted to make Lu Yao their disciple, the light around him grew stronger.


“Three messengers, please sit.”


The First Branch Elder hurriedly invited the guests from the three halls to take a seat. He could barely hold back his happiness.


He was filled with happiness and had already expected the arrival of the White Tiger Hall, but the arrival of the other three halls was beyond his expectations. This increased his reputation.


“Yaoer, this is all because of you.”


The First Branch Elder muttered while clenching his hands. Emotions soar.


He knew that the reason why the four of the Five Hall sent someone directly to their doorstep was because of Lu Yao, his own daughter.


At that moment, he sighed emotionally. The work done for three years was not in vain. That's worth.


“Vermillion Bird Hall, Azure Dragon Hall, and Onyx Tortoise Hall, why are you here? Lu Yao belongs to our White Tiger Hall. Are you planning to snatch it from us?”


Duanmu Qing was looking at the envoys from the other three halls. His expression looked sour.


“Haha, Duanmu Qing, I know Lu Yao already has a marriage bond with Duanmu Lin from the White Tiger Hall, but Miss Lu Yao might not want to choose the White Tiger Hall. We are all members of the Mystical Sword Sect, there is no difference in choosing another hall, it all depends on adaptability.”


Tie Zhong from the Azure Dragon Hall laughed.


“Hmph, from my view, your efforts are in vain.” Duanmu Qing snorted.


The First Branch Elder, who was sitting beside him, was even more excited. The meeting of the Lu Family home had not even begun, but the four halls were already scrambling over Lu Yao. His face was flushed thinking about that.


At that moment, a fragrant aroma wafted. A graceful figure approached, instantly attracting the attention of everyone.


“Owner of Mu Hall, I didn't expect you to come. Please sit down." The First Branch Elder quickly greeted him.


He was the Owner of the Hall of Elixir Hall, Mu Lan.


The Elixir Hall was supported by the Mystical Sword Sect. The First Branch Elder did not dare to ignore him.


“Martial Aunt Mu, you also came.”


Liu Qian of Vermillion Hall hurriedly stepped forward to salute, which shocked many as they began to speculate. Mu Lan had quite a good position in the Vermillion Bird Hall. Liu Qian was already over thirty years old but still called Mu Lan as her aunt.


“Ya, I came to watch the fun of it.”


“Why is he here?” The expressions of the participants from the other three halls changed.


At that moment, Lu Ming, Li Ping, and Qiu Yue arrived among the crowd.
