Chapter 310 Entrusted
At noon, Luo Tianjin invited Liu Xunyi to have lunch together in the back hall, and Luo Hongxuan sat with them.

In the back hall, facing the cheerful and cheerful Luo Tianjin and his son, Liu Xunyi was filled with thoughts and felt uneasy. He did not even move his chopsticks for a long while. He just lowered his head and drank tea, filling himself up with water.

"Xunyi, today is not a banquet, but just a home-cooked meal. You don't have to be so reserved." Luo Tianjin seemed to see Liu Xunyi's concerns, and took the initiative to pick up a chicken leg for him, smiling lightly, "Try it, do these dishes suit your taste?"

Seeing this, Liu Xunyi made up his mind, stood up resolutely, bowed to Luo Tianjin and said: "Master, please tell me what you want to do. I will do my best to help you."

"sit down."

Luo Tianjin seemed quite displeased with Liu Xunyi's seriousness. He waved his hand to signal him to sit down and said, "Xunyi, I treat you as my own family, but you are so distant to me. Aren't you afraid that I will be disappointed?"

"Palace Master, I..."

"Forget it." Seeing Liu Xunyi's embarrassed expression, Luo Tianjin couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems that if I don't explain clearly, you may not be able to eat this meal."

"Please let me know, Lord."

"This morning, I explained three tasks in the hall, and explained the pros and cons. I spoke to you from the heart, letting you know how important these three tasks are." Luo Tianjin said seriously, "After that, almost everyone present volunteered to take the responsibility, even the Zhongping Second Sect was not willing to be outdone, but you... said nothing and turned a blind eye. Why?"

Hearing this, Liu Xunyi secretly said "As expected". He pretended to be bitter and replied: "I dare not deceive the Palace Master, because I know that these three tasks are related to the life and death of the Xianwang Palace, and they are of great importance and are not a joke, so I stayed in a corner and kept silent."

"Why?"

"I know that I am not talented enough, not well-educated, and not very virtuous. I am afraid that I cannot take on this important task." Liu Xunyi said modestly, "These three tasks are extremely important. If there is any mistake, the entire Xianwang Mansion will be doomed to fall. I ask myself... I really dare not make such a boast."

"Excuse!"

Suddenly, Luo Tianjin shouted angrily and threw the chopsticks in his hand hard on the table. The cups and plates turned over, and there was a series of "ping pong" sounds.

Liu Xunyi and Luo Hongxuan were both shocked. They stood up in a hurry and knelt in front of Luo Tianjin.

"Liu Xunyi, you are not unskilled, virtuous, or weak in intelligence, but you are arrogant and waiting for a good price. Right now, the mansion is in need of people, but you are self-righteous and take advantage of it!" Luo Tianjin looked at Liu Xunyi who bowed his head and said nothing, and rebuked him unceremoniously, "You say you are grateful, but in fact you have always resented me in your heart. You are still brooding over what happened on the second day of August, right?"

"I don't dare!"

"You don't dare?" Luo Tianjin narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Liu Xunyi, sneering, "If you were respectful, how dare you act pretentiously in front of me? Pretending to be humble? In my opinion, it's not that you don't want to do the job, but that you don't want to take the initiative. You're waiting for me to beg you in return."

"Master, please forgive me!"

Liu Xunyi's face changed drastically. He screamed, fell to the ground quickly, and kowtowed to Luo Tianjin.

"Everyone, stand up!"

At Luo Tianjin's command, the trembling Liu Xunyi and Luo Hongxuan stood up one after another.

"Now I'll give you another chance." Luo Tianjin lowered his voice, as if trying to calm his inner anger, and asked word by word, "Do you want to do these three tasks?"

"I..." Liu Xunyi thought for a moment, then clasped his hands and said, "I would like to go to the Tang Clan in Shuzhong and persuade the chief steward of the Tang Clan to make peace with the Xianwang Mansion."

"Tang Sect?" Luo Tianjin raised his eyebrows and shook his head. "I have handed over the matter of Tang Sect to Deng Quan. A few days ago, he went through thick and thin with Tang Ji and Tang Xiu, and they have become close friends. Therefore, it is more appropriate for him to go to Shuzhong than for you."

Liu Xunyi was slightly stunned, and then said: "Then... I am willing to go south to Dali, continue to hunt down Xu Ren, and avenge Mr. Pan."

"It's a long journey to Dali, and dealing with Longxiang Mountain is not easy, so we must choose an experienced and experienced person to go." Luo Tianjin said quietly, "After thinking for a while, I decided to send Di Mo to Dali. When it comes to killing people, the most taboo is to be soft-hearted and soft-hearted, and this is exactly your weakness. Di Mo is better than you at this kind of job."

"Master, please understand. I am definitely not a soft-hearted person..."

"If you weren't so soft-hearted, how could Xu Ren escape from Yingchuan?" Before Liu Xunyi could finish her words, Luo Tianjin suddenly asked back, "Besides, if you weren't so soft-hearted, how could the Yingchuan Donghu Gang revive and cause Mr. Pan's family to be destroyed?"

"I……"

Liu Xunyi was speechless after being caught by Luo Tianjin. In the face of the facts, he was speechless and could not refute.

"I don't know what the Lord of the Mansion means..."

"You go to the Western Regions for me." Luo Tianjin replied directly, "First, you have been to Huodu to investigate the Jingfenghuayutu, so you are familiar with the route. Second, you have dealt with the Yulong Palace before, which saves you a lot of trouble. Third, you will not be asked to kill anyone or lobby in this trip to the Western Regions. You just need to show my sincerity on my behalf. Other things will be done by others for you."

"Who?"

"Xunzhen." After saying that, Luo Tianjin took out Xie Xuan's secret letter from his bosom and said seriously, "This letter was written by Xie Xuan. He and Xunzhen have visited the Young King of Qin in Shangjing. At the same time, they have been running around Tianzang Peak, Jinlun Temple, and Linglong Sea for several days, and successfully persuaded them to lend me a helping hand."

"What?" Liu Xunyi was shocked and asked in astonishment, "The Palace Master wants to involve the three religions of the Western Regions into the Central Plains martial arts world?"

"So what?" Luo Tianjin chuckled. "Longxiang Mountain can cooperate with the Mongols, so why can't I join forces with the Western Regions sects? There are many masters from the three religions in the Western Regions, and most of them are strangers. It is much more convenient for them to come to the Central Plains to do things for me than for us to have our own people."

At this point, Luo Tianjin's expression suddenly straightened, and he warned: "Xun Yi, this matter is a secret in the palace, and even in the Xianwang Palace, few people know about it. I didn't make Xie Xuan's secret letter public this morning because I didn't want to cause trouble and spread rumors. Now I tell you this secret because I want to confide in you, and I also hope that you can keep it secret and don't spread it to others."

"I will obey the orders of the Palace Master." Liu Xunyi said solemnly, "But I don't know... when will the masters of the three religions in the Western Regions come to the Central Plains?"

"They are already on their way." Luo Tianjin said with a faint smile, "Xie Xuan will personally lead them to sneak into the Central Plains. It is expected that they will arrive within ten days."

"So fast?"

"To borrow Murong Bai's words, speed is the essence of war." Luo Tianjin said, "Xie Xuan's letter contains two contents, and this is only the first. The task I am going to assign to you is the second."

"Jade Dragon Palace?"

"That's right." Luo Tianjin nodded and said, "Xie Xuan received a rumor in the Western Regions that Jin Fuyu had secretly sent people to Tianshan to visit Wu Ya, the director of Yulong Palace, in an attempt to win over Yulong Palace and use it for Jinjianwu."

Liu Xunyi was shocked and asked quickly, "Will Ren Wuya agree?"

"I don't know yet." Luo Tianjin shook his head and said, "When Xie Xuan sent the letter, the people from Jinjianwu had not yet arrived at Tianshan. Otherwise, Xie Xuan would have been able to take that person's life before he entered Yulong Palace."

"I wonder what arrangements Mr. Xie has made in his letter?"

"Of course, the overall situation is the most important." Luo Tianjin said, "The most urgent task is that he must lead the masters of the three religions in the Western Regions into the Central Plains. As for the matter of Yulong Palace, it will be temporarily handed over to Xunzhen. I sent you to Tianshan to meet Xunzhen and facilitate this matter. After all, Xunzhen is still an outsider. I... don't feel at ease to leave such an important matter to her."

Liu Xunyi frowned and nodded thoughtfully, "As far as I know, Xunzhen has a good relationship with Yulong Palace. Even if she comes forward, she may not be able to convince Ren Wuya to join forces with us, but at least she can stabilize the situation to prevent Jinjianwu from taking the initiative."

"That's exactly what I mean." Luo Tianjin replied, "However, we still don't know what the situation is in Yulong Palace? We don't know what conditions Ren Wuya will propose. Therefore, I will send you there without any restrictions or orders. You need to act according to the circumstances. Remember, no matter what Ren Wuya asks, you can't refuse! As for success or failure, we can discuss it later. In short, we must not let Jinjianwu succeed first."

"In the matter of the Shocking Wind and Raining Map, the Golden Sword Dock and the Jade Dragon Palace had colluded secretly, but in the end they parted ways unhappily." Liu Xunyi pondered, "The two families have mixed feelings, and they may not be more confident than us."

"Now that we have Young King Qin and Xunzhen guaranteeing us, I think our chances of success are very high." Luo Tianjin added, "You just need to do your best, and I believe you will succeed immediately."

"I will do my best and will never let down the Palace Master's trust!"

"Xun Yi, after the catastrophe a few days ago, I am already afraid." Luo Tianjin's tone gradually softened, and he said in a concentrated voice, "If you hadn't brought Mei Zichuan to the Xianwang Mansion in time, the people would have been killed and blood would have flowed like a river. Therefore, in order to avoid such a dangerous situation in the future, I must leave Murong Bai and Huang Yulang to guard the mansion in case of emergency. At present, there are not many good people in the mansion who can be used. I can only rest assured to leave this matter to you. I don't trust anyone except you."

Luo Tianjin's words were so "sincere" that Liu Xunyi couldn't refuse.

"My Lord, I have been so kind to you that I cannot repay you." Liu Xunyi nodded heavily and said, "After I leave, the affairs of the Central Plains..."

"Don't worry, I will take care of the affairs of the Central Plains." Luo Tianjin said, "Just focus on your work. As long as you can make this happen, you will be the greatest contributor to the Xianwang Mansion. As for other things, you don't need to worry about it. A few days ago, Miss Pan told me everything that happened in Jueqing Valley. You put your life and death aside for the Xianwang Mansion, and you didn't hesitate to jump off the cliff. Such loyalty is rare in the world. I, Luo Tianjin, have accumulated good deeds in my previous life. In this life, I have a right-hand man like you who assists me wholeheartedly. I will die without regrets."

"Master of the Palace..."

"Hey!" Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to speak, Luo Tianjin suddenly waved his hand and said, "Now is a time of trouble. Although I cannot reward you in time, I have seen everything you have done and will remember it in my heart. When you return from the Western Regions with success, I will definitely hold a banquet to celebrate your success and reward you handsomely!"

Liu Xunyi knew that Luo Tianjin had made up his mind, so he no longer hesitated. He bowed to him respectfully and said solemnly: "I will not refuse even if my body is torn to pieces! I just don't know... when does the Palace Master plan to let me leave?"

"Go back now and pack your luggage. I will have Hongxuan escort you out of the city tonight at midnight. You should not make a big fuss on this trip. Just pick two or three good fighters to accompany you."

"As ordered..."

"Xunyi, come here!"

Luo Tianjin waved his hand gently towards Liu Xunyi, beckoned her to his side, asked her to lean forward and whispered a few words. Liu Xunyi's face changed quietly, and then revealed a look of disbelief and astonishment.

"Master, are you serious?"

"Every word is true, go ahead!"
