Chapter 437: Chapter 437 Master Lu Furious_1
"You are dead!"
The seven black-clothed old women glared coldly at Qin Feiyang and then began to retreat. The Lord of the Lu Family also led the First Clan Elder and Second Clan Elder to retreat quickly, because Master Lu was too powerful. If they were near Qin Feiyang and the White-Eyed Wolf, they would undoubtedly face disaster.
Yin Yuanming turned his head and spoke to the lady in purple, "Pavilion Master, it’s your turn to take action." Right now, only the Pavilion Master could save Qin Feiyang and the White-Eyed Wolf—specifically, the White-Eyed Wolf. Qin Feiyang could always hide in the ancient castle and was not afraid of Old Monster Dong at all.
The lady in the purple robe looked at Master Lu and took a step forward. But just then, a cold voice sounded, "So many of you ganging up on a child, does your Lu Family have any shame?" Before the voice had even faded, a man and a woman appeared out of thin air—it was Lv Yun and Yan Nanshan!
Lv Yun’s aura was stronger than before! Obviously, she had taken the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill. Before entering the inner temple, Qin Feiyang had given her six pills: three Potential Elixirs, two Potential Pills, and one Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill. Although Lv Yun was a Nine-Star War Emperor, the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill couldn’t elevate her directly to the War Ancestor stage. However, it could help her break through her bottleneck. Just like Yan Nanshan before, she only needed a few more hours of cultivation to smoothly enter the War Ancestor stage. And now, the aura she exuded was clearly that of a one-star War Ancestor!
The woman in the purple robe muttered, "It seems I don’t need to do anything," and, glancing at Yan Nanshan and Lv Yun, immediately retracted her step.
Qin Feiyang was also overjoyed and shouted, "Uncle Yan, Elder Lv, don’t worry about me! Go help the White-Eyed Wolf!" Hearing this, the two immediately flew towards the White-Eyed Wolf.
"Break for me!" At the same time, Qin Feiyang let out a roar, his teeth gritted, veins bulging all over his body. With a BOOM, he finally broke free and vanished in the next instant!
"Bastard!"
"He got away again!" The seven black-clothed old women were incandescent with rage.
SWISH! At that moment, Lv Yun and Yan Nanshan also appeared before the White-Eyed Wolf. Looking at the incoming Battle Intent, Lv Yun said in a low voice, "Master Lu is a two-star War Ancestor; we cannot underestimate him."
"Understood," Yan Nanshan nodded.
BOOM! The two raised their hands, unleashing two powerful battle techniques that blasted toward the Battle Intent! With a tremendous crash, the Battle Intent was instantly annihilated!
"Hmm?" Master Lu frowned. Then, with a mere thought, the Battle Intent originally aimed at Qin Feiyang suddenly wheeled in mid-air and charged at the White-Eyed Wolf from behind! It seemed he wouldn’t rest until he killed the White-Eyed Wolf.
Yan Nanshan and Lv Yun’s gazes turned cold. Waving their hands simultaneously, their two formidable battle techniques also pivoted in the air, roaring towards the incoming Battle Intent.
BOOM! The Battle Intent was dispersed once more!
Master Lu’s brows knitted tightly. He looked at Lv Yun and asked, "When did you break through to the one-star War Ancestor stage?"
"What? Elder Lv has also broken through to the War Ancestor stage?"
"With Yan Nanshan as well, the Holy Temple’s strength has grown even greater!"
The crowd in the distance murmured amongst themselves. The seven black-clothed old women also stared at Lv Yun in astonishment.
Lv Yun glanced at the seven old women, then looked at Master Lu, her tone icy. "This is my personal affair; it has nothing to do with you. Furthermore," she added, "if you dare to make another move, I can only interpret it as your Lu Family declaring war on our Holy Temple!"
Master Lu was immediately incensed. "Declaration of war?" he shouted angrily. "Are you blind? It’s obviously these two Little Bastards causing trouble in my Lu Family!"
SWISH! Just then, Qin Feiyang appeared. With a few flickers, he landed beside Yan Nanshan and Lv Yun. The White-Eyed Wolf retracted its rib cage, shrank to palm-size, and landed on Qin Feiyang’s shoulder.
Yan Nanshan turned his head and glared at them. "Can’t you two be a little more peaceful?"
Qin Feiyang and the White-Eyed Wolf smiled sheepishly.
Yan Nanshan rolled his eyes and said emotionlessly, "Alright, spit it out. What exactly happened?"
"Well, it’s like this," Qin Feiyang began, shrugging with a look of helplessness. "We came to challenge the Lu Family, and they agreed. But they couldn’t defeat the White-Eyed Wolf, so they had Steward Lu launch a sneak attack on me. I certainly wasn’t going to just stand there and die, so I, uh, accidentally killed Steward Lu. After that, we’d really stirred up a hornet’s nest. The shameless old scoundrels from the Lu Family immediately rushed over to kill me, leaving me no choice but to fight back."
Lv Yun frowned. "Then why did you challenge them in the first place?"
"Weren’t our hands just itching for a fight? We wanted to spar with them, but who knew they’d be so despicable!" the White-Eyed Wolf chimed in indignantly. "This Lu Family is truly the biggest disgrace to State City!"
"Indeed, they are quite despicable," Lv Yun sneered, then looked up at Master Lu. "You heard him, didn’t you? Do you still think this matter needs to be pursued?"
Master Lu’s face darkened. He looked at the Lord of the Lu Family and demanded, "Is this true?"
"I..." the Lord of the Lu Family stammered.
Qin Feiyang said mildly, "Lord of the Lu Family, many people around here witnessed the entire process. You’d better not lie through your teeth!"
"Shut up!" the Lord of the Lu Family barked, his gaze venomous.
Master Lu glanced at the distant crowd in the sky, then fixed a cold stare on the Lord of the Lu Family. "Answer me!" he commanded.
The Lord of the Lu Family’s body trembled. He nodded. "Ancestor, it is true."
"Have you lost your mind?" Master Lu thundered, furious. "If they wanted to challenge, couldn’t you have refused?"
The Lord of the Lu Family hurriedly explained, "They said that if we won, they would have the Treasure Pavilion lift the ban..."
"Fool!" Master Lu roared. "Don’t you see who they are? Would they be so kind-hearted? You lost, and that’s bad enough, but you even had the steward ambush him and then ganged up on him! Aren’t you just disgracing our Lu Family by doing this? How is our Lu Family supposed to maintain its standing in State City after this? You... you really are a pighead!" Master Lu glared at the Lord of the Lu Family, his body trembling with rage.
"I was wrong," the Lord of the Lu Family mumbled, lowering his head, his face etched with regret.
Qin Feiyang interjected, "Excuse me, can we settle the wager first before you continue scolding him?"
"Wager?" Master Lu was startled, frowning. "What wager?"
"All the savings of your Lu Family," Qin Feiyang stated plainly. "The Lord of the Lu Family personally promised this. Don’t even think about reneging."
"What?!" Master Lu’s eyes widened in fury. Yan Nanshan and Lv Yun were also utterly astounded. The Lu Family was currently being sanctioned by the Treasure Pavilion; if they lost their savings, it would be a dead end for them! How could he dare to make such a monumental wager? Was the Lord of the Lu Family an imbecile?
Master Lu glared fiercely at the Lord of the Lu Family. "Tell me this isn’t true!"
"Ancestor, I..." The Lord of the Lu Family kept his head bowed, not daring to speak or meet Master Lu’s eyes.
"How could I have entrusted the Lu Family to such an imbecile!" Master Lu cried out in anguish.
SPURT!
He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, his fury bringing it forth. His complexion instantly grew haggard. In that moment, Master Lu seemed to transform into a different person.
The old woman in black interjected, "Ancestor, although we agreed, he has killed so many of our clan members. Surely that should count as recompense?"
Qin Feiyang scoffed. "Have you no shame? We killed them because you attacked us first. Should I have just stood here and let you kill me? If you feel your family hasn’t been humiliated enough, by all means, continue."
The old woman in black, seething with fury, roared, "Little Bastard, I challenge you to a one-on-one death match!"
"Frankly, I’m not afraid of you," Qin Feiyang retorted, glancing at her with disdain.
"Then come!" The old woman in black stepped forward, her body radiating murderous intent.
"Enough!" Master Lu bellowed. "You’ve all thoroughly disgraced me! Honor the wager! Go and bring out all our savings for them immediately!"
"Ancestor..." The Lord of the Lu Family, the black-clad old woman and her seven companions, and even the servants and Lu Family disciples below, all turned pale.
"I don’t want to say it a second time!" Master Lu enunciated each word, clearly on the brink of an explosive rage.
The Lord of the Lu Family shuddered. He hurriedly brought the First Clan Elder and Second Clan Elder, flying past the seven figures in black. After entrusting the two unconscious Clan Elders to the seven, he dove towards a large hall below.
Qin Feiyang whispered, "Uncle Yan, please do me a favor and follow him. Make sure he doesn’t try to hide anything."
"Alright." Yan Nanshan nodded and, transforming into a streak of light, sped after the Lord of the Lu Family.
Qin Feiyang then turned his gaze towards the First Clan Elder and Second Clan Elder. Both were still unconscious, blood seeping from wounds on their abdomens.
"White-Eyed Wolf, did you destroy their Qi Seas?" Qin Feiyang transmitted his voice.
"One hundred percent," the White-Eyed Wolf replied.
A sharp glint flashed in Qin Feiyang’s eyes. Two Nine-Star War Emperors crippled. Eleven Seven-star War Emperors, fifteen Six-Star War Emperors, and twenty Five-Star War Emperors killed. Plus, all the Lu Family’s savings obtained. This could indeed be called a successful raid!
He then glanced at the black-clad old woman and the others before whispering, "Elder Lv, could you help me check if the Lu Family’s Third Clan Elder is present?"
Lv Yun raised an eyebrow. "Why? You’re not thinking of going after him too, are you?"
"With Master Lu around? How would I dare?" Qin Feiyang gave a bitter smile.
"I don’t think there’s anything you wouldn’t dare to do." Lv Yun rolled her eyes at him and sighed. "Honestly, I’m quite worried that one day you might make an enemy of the entire world."
"No need to worry," the White-Eyed Wolf chuckled softly. "Even if we exterminated the Lu Family, no one would dare do anything to us."
"Oh?" Lv Yun was surprised. "That confident?"
"Of course!" the White-Eyed Wolf replied proudly. "We have powerful backing, you know."
"Powerful backing!" Lv Yun visibly tensed. "Who is it?"
"It’s..." Just as the White-Eyed Wolf, puffed up with pride, was about to let it slip, Qin Feiyang quickly coughed and shot him a fierce glare.
Lv Yun looked suspiciously at Qin Feiyang and the wolf.
Qin Feiyang smiled. "Elder Lv, don’t listen to his ramblings. Please, could you quickly check for me whether the Third Clan Elder is here?"
Was it really ramblings? Lv Yun wondered. She glanced at the seven figures in black, then lowered her gaze to scan the vast Lu Family compound.
Gradually, a look of surprise crept into her eyes.
"What is it?" Qin Feiyang asked in a low voice.
"Strange," Lv Yun frowned. "Something this major has happened, enough to alarm even Master Lu, yet the Third Clan Elder hasn’t appeared?"
Hearing this, Qin Feiyang and the White-Eyed Wolf exchanged a look, a cold glint flashing in their eyes simultaneously. There was no doubt about it. The person impersonating Shi Ming had to be the Lu Family’s Third Clan Elder!
