Soon, Yu Luomian met Liu Erlong.
Before his own daughter, Yu Luomian naturally told her everything he'd encountered. However, harboring selfish thoughts, although Yu Luomian told Liu Erlong the general situation, he distorted some key points and shifted all the blame onto his subordinates.
"That's how it is, Erlong. Your father was completely bewitched by treacherous people, which is why, why I committed such a grave error. Look, can you think of a way to help your father plead? I see you seem quite close with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan."
Yu Luomian spoke pitifully, tears and snot flowing. Looking at his condition, he truly seemed like a victim.
If it were an ordinary person seeing this scene, they would probably believe him already. Moreover, Liu Erlong was Yu Luomian's daughter.
However, precisely because of this, Liu Erlong didn't believe Yu Luomian's nonsense at all.
Meng Bei hadn't informed Liu Erlong about this matter, so Liu Erlong was currently completely unaware of the situation.
But even so, Liu Erlong still detected the truth from the subtle clues.
Liu Erlong looked at Yu Luomian and laughed coldly several times: "Hehe, Father, at your age, do you still want to use such flimsy lies to deceive your daughter?"
Hearing this, Yu Luomian seemed to have his inner thoughts exposed, becoming extremely nervous.
However, he still stubbornly insisted: "Erlong, how can you speak to me like this? Father really encountered trouble. Otherwise, why would I pull down my old face to beg you?"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong smiled lightly and said: "Father, forgive me for being direct. If it were truly as you said, that you were framed by treacherous people, then why come to find your daughter? Wouldn't it be better to find Uncle? Uncle has always been upright and just - he would surely stand up for you!"
Yu Luomian: "This, this, this..."
Seeing this, Liu Erlong sneered even more. She understood this father of hers too well. Seeing this scene, she had already guessed most of the truth. So without giving Yu Luomian any face, she said: "Father has reason but doesn't dare find Uncle. That means this 'reason' must be a twisted reason, unable to be brought to light. Now with nowhere else to turn, you come begging your daughter. Presumably, someone must have caught a fatal weakness, right!"
Yu Luomian listened to what Liu Erlong said, feeling utterly ashamed. Now it was impossible to deceive Liu Erlong, so he could only play the family affection card.
"Erlong, I'm your real father! Do you want to just watch your father die without thinking of ways to save him?"
As he spoke, Yu Luomian actually knelt directly before Liu Erlong.
Father kneeling to daughter - rarely seen throughout the ages.
Seeing this, Liu Erlong naturally couldn't bear it. She quickly dodged aside, then went to help Yu Luomian up.
No matter what, Yu Luomian was her biological father.
Although this father hadn't been very good to her, even seeing her only a few times a year, Liu Erlong still remembered that her first and second spirit rings were personally obtained with Yu Luomian taking her hunting.
Liu Erlong still remembered when Yu Luomian first took her spirit hunting, he had said to her: "Little Erlong, if you can cultivate to Soul Ancestor before age twenty, then Father will bring both you and your mother to live in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family. How about it?"
"Okay, Father. It's a deal!"
Once upon a time, Liu Erlong had always treated this statement as her cultivation goal and pursued it persistently.
Unfortunately, later her mother died of illness before she could cultivate to Soul Ancestor.
Later, when Liu Erlong truly cultivated to Soul Ancestor, with her mother already dead, Liu Erlong no longer had thoughts of returning to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family. Yu Luomian also seemed to have long forgotten this promise, so the matter was left unresolved.
Times change, and coming to today, all this had long become a bad debt.
Liu Erlong looked at her father begging her bitterly, and her heart finally softened. She said: "Father, how could your daughter watch you die? But you must first tell your daughter the complete truth before she can think of ways to save you."
Hearing this, Yu Luomian no longer dared to hide anything. He told the truth completely, even handing over the recording spirit guidance device to Liu Erlong to view.
Liu Erlong watched the entire recording stored in the spirit guidance device. Without a doubt, the Yu Luomian shown in this recording was simply a naked villain.
Killing and robbing, seizing an ally's spirit bone, then killing his own subordinates to silence them...
With ironclad evidence laid out before her, Yu Luomian had absolutely no way to deny it.
"Father, this... how can your daughter save you!"
Liu Erlong sighed deeply, unable to hide her worry.
At this time, she too felt confused, not knowing how to save Yu Luomian.
The only thing Liu Erlong could think of was to find Meng Bei to plead. But the spirit bone had already been absorbed by Yu Luomian - that was a 50,000-year spirit bone, extremely precious. It might have been prepared as a treasure for Sword Douluo or Bone Douluo. Now that it was seized by her father, how could they let it go?
The only method Liu Erlong could think of was to beg Meng Bei, then have Meng Bei speak to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. That way, perhaps they could spare Yu Luomian's life.
But Liu Erlong was extremely unwilling to do this in her heart.
Because Liu Erlong knew that even if this could truly save Yu Luomian, Meng Bei would owe an enormous favor. A 50,000-year spirit bone couldn't just be written off so casually.
Therefore, Liu Erlong was very hesitant at this time.
Seeing this, Yu Luomian kept pleading:
"Erlong, Father knows he was wrong. From now on, Father will agree to anything you say. Just save Father this once!"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong sighed deeply in her heart.
There was no choice - who told Yu Luomian to be her father?
She couldn't really just watch her father die.
Liu Erlong thought this way and was just about to agree when suddenly footsteps came from outside and a figure walked in.
"Erlong, Uncle came but you didn't even tell me?"
Meng Bei walked in with a smile.
Yu Luomian had heard of Meng Bei's reputation but had never truly met him, so he wasn't familiar with Meng Bei.
After the two met, Yu Luomian showed a confused expression.
Yu Luomian looked at Liu Erlong and asked:
"Erlong, this is?"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong pressed her lips together, thinking about how to answer.
She thought: I can't expose Xiao Bei's relationship with me here, otherwise knowing her father's character, if Yu Luomian knew about this, he would definitely use it to threaten Meng Bei even more.
Thinking this, Liu Erlong said carefully: "Father, this is Meng Bei. He's my sworn younger bro..."
Before she could finish, Meng Bei interrupted: "Sworn husband!"
Speaking, Meng Bei pulled Liu Erlong into his embrace.
Liu Erlong was startled, looking at Meng Bei in shock, unable to understand why Meng Bei would do this.
However, in Meng Bei's view, when his strength was low he naturally needed to hide things, but now with high strength, he naturally didn't need to hide everything anymore.
Otherwise, what was the point of increasing his strength?
