"Don't worry, maybe he's just lying to you. Later, I'll bring you to the Liu family to find them." Looking at Zhang Dongshuang covering her face and crying, Lu Xuan comforted her.
However, Lu Xuan knew very well that Zhang Dongshuang's parents had most likely met with misfortune. As the saying went, a man's words were always kind when he was about to die. There was no need for Liu Tao to lie to him at a time like this. Furthermore, that was probably the reason why Liu Tao had not even considered the conditions that Lu Xuan had proposed in the beginning.
Zhang Dongshuang shook her head, tears still hanging on her eyelashes, but her emotions had gradually calmed down. In fact, in these few months, she had already prepared for this. If she didn't hand over the Zhang family's inheritance to Zhang Jinyu, her parents might still be able to keep their lives, but after Zhang Jinyu received the inheritance, her parents would no longer be of any use, and the probability of them being killed was quite high.
But now that she really heard this news, she still found it hard to accept. After all, in the end, it was her who harmed her parents.
"Young hero Lu, kill him, I don't want to hear his voice again." Zhang Dongshuang said. Liu Tao's scream was extremely ear-piercing.
Without hesitation, Lu Xuan casually slashed out with his sword. Liu Tao, who didn't have the slightest ability to resist, instantly stopped screaming, lying on the ground, motionless. The dignified Liu family's patriarch, an expert at the peak of the tenth level of the Body Refinement Realm, died just like that.
This time, there were a total of three people from the Liu family who came to the Zhang family, namely Liu Tao, his son, and Liu Cheng who was at the ninth level of the Body Refinement Realm. Now they were all dead, and the current patriarch of the Zhang family, Zhang Jinyu was also dead. The remaining people were just some ordinary people of the Zhang family.
At this moment, they were trembling in front of Lu Xuan, not daring to move at all. Just now, Lu Xuan said that whoever dared to leave would die. Facing a death god who could easily kill even Liu Tao, they didn't dare to have the slightest bit of offense.
At this moment, with a "plop" sound, a middle-aged man was the first to kneel on the ground. He lowered his head and said, "Miss, we were all forced to do this. Zhang Jinyu betrayed the patriarch. With the Liu family backing him, we didn't dare to say anything. Those who defended the patriarch were all harmed by him."
"That's right, that's right. We hope that Miss will spare our lives for the sake of our many years of service to the Zhang Family." More and more people knelt down and pleaded.
"Zhang Jinyu is indeed worse than a beast. Fortunately, this Young Hero helped the Zhang Family to clean up the mess. Now that the Young Miss has returned, we will firmly support the Young Miss to ascend to the position of Family Head!"
"That's right! Young Miss is well-deserved to be the Clan Master, we firmly support her! "
…
In the blink of an eye, the people of the Zhang Clan had turned to support Zhang Dongshuang as the Clan Leader.
Seeing how brave Lu Xuan was, there might be a powerful force behind him. If the Zhang Family could find a powerful backer, they would undoubtedly benefit a lot.
Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Zhang Dongshuang's heart was filled with mixed feelings. From the bottom of her heart, she couldn't blame them. Zhang Jinyu had the Liu family backing him up. For the sake of their own lives, no one dared to resist. Speaking of which, the main culprit was Zhang Jinyu alone.
However, it was absolutely impossible for her to be the Clan Master. She had completely lost hope and lost all hope for this family. There was no longer any sense of belonging. This time, she came back to take back the inheritance and find her parents.
"Clan Master, whoever wants to be the Clan Master can go ahead. I have nothing to do with the Zhang Family anymore." Zhang Dongshuang said coldly.
Hearing her words, the people kneeling on the ground couldn't help but look at each other. However, they were slightly relieved. At least from Zhang Dongshuang's words, it seemed that she was not going to pursue their responsibility. However, they didn't dare to get up. Lu Xuan hadn't said anything yet.
"Peng Xu, go get Liu Tao and Zhang Jinyu's Storage Rings." Lu Xuan said.
Peng Xu complied and went to retrieve two Storage Rings from the two corpses. He handed them to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan first looked at the things in Liu Tao's Storage Ring. After checking, he didn't find anything valuable. Then, he began to look at Zhang Jinyu's Storage Ring. He found a Yellow Level Upper Grade Cultivation Method and a Profound Level Lower Grade Martial Skill. There was also a blade that was also a Human Level Upper Grade Treasure Tool. There were also some medicinal pills that looked to be of high grade. As for the other things, they weren't worth mentioning.
"Are these the inheritance you obtained?" Lu Xuan asked Zhang Dongshuang.
After looking at it, Zhang Dongshuang nodded. Then, she shook her head and said, "These are part of it, but not all of it."
Lu Xuan slightly frowned. Listening to Liu Tao's words, it seemed that Zhang Jinyu had already given him the inheritance. Why didn't he have anything? Instead, there was a part of the inheritance in Zhang Jinyu's Storage Ring?
With a thought, Lu Xuan said, "Go check the other two's hands and see if there are any Storage Rings."
Hearing this, Peng Xu immediately acted. He quickly came to the side of Liu Cheng and Liu Tao's son's corpses. In the hands of Liu Tao's son, there were two Storage Rings!
As Lu Xuan examined them, he found that it was as he expected. In one of the Storage Rings, besides some personal items, there were also some women's underwear and some pills. The smell of the medicine was a bit strange, and it made people feel a little excited. It was probably some kind of aphrodisiac. This should be Liu Tao's son's ring.
In the other Storage Ring, there were a lot of Primal Stones, a lot of medicines, and an ancient book. It was exactly the same as Zhang Jinyu's High-Grade Yellow Level Cultivation Method.
Seeing this situation, Lu Xuan's mind was already more or less correct.
Presumably, Liu Tao wanted Liu Cheng to escape with his son, so he gave the ring containing the inheritance to Liu Tao. However, he didn't expect that it would be intercepted by Lu Xuan.
And Zhang Jinyu was not honest. Although he gave a part of the inheritance to Liu Tao, he left some more valuable things for himself, including a High-Grade Human Level Artifact and a Profound Level Martial Skill. He also made a copy of the Cultivation Method. Obviously, he was looking for an opportunity to rise up in the future. He was not willing to submit to the Liu Family. This was an ambitious person.
Lu Xuan secretly shook his head when he thought about this. The world was harmonious, and everything came for benefits, and everything went away for benefits.
Originally, the two families were living well in the secular world, but because of an inheritance, the two families turned into bubbles. All of their ambitions were scattered with the wind.
"Miss Zhang, all the inheritance is here. Keep it well and don't take it out easily." Lu Xuan didn't leave anything behind and returned everything to Zhang Dongshuang.
These things might be incomparably valuable for ordinary warriors, but for Lu Xuan, they were not attractive at all. The Profound Level Martial Skill was a Saber Art, so it was useless to him. As for the High-Grade Yellow Level Cultivation Method, he already had the Taiyi Origin Returning Art, so it was useless to him.
The only things that were useful to him were the Azure Dragon Blood Essence and the Startling Cloud Sword Technique, which he had already obtained.
After passing the things to Zhang Dongshuang, and asking for her opinion, Lu Xuan didn't stay any longer. Zhang Dongshuang also left. From now on, she had no relationship with the Zhang Family.
One day later, Lu Xuan's group of three appeared in the Liu Family. They came here for the last hope. They wanted to see whether Zhang Jintian and his wife had really met with misfortune or not.
The result was not out of their expectations. After the Liu Family obtained the inheritance, they really killed them. Zhang Jintian and his wife had already passed away. Moreover, their corpses were abandoned in the wilderness.
Enraged by the Liu Family's viciousness, Lu Xuan started a massacre in the Liu Family. All the people with the surname Liu were killed.
This time, Lu Xuan had committed a lot of killings, and among them, there were definitely many innocent people. However, he couldn't care so much. Since Liu Tao had committed such an atrocious act, he had to be prepared to pay the price.
Looking at Lu Xuan, who had almost turned into a God of Death, Peng Xu couldn't help but look at him with a trace of fear. This Young Hero Lu usually looked kind, polite, and easy to talk to. However, once someone really touched his reverse scale, his anger was not something that anyone could bear.
The Liu Family's main residence had already been burned down by Lu Xuan. Standing in front of the ruins, the killing intent in Lu Xuan's heart slowly subsided. He realized that ever since he saw Zhao Binger leave, he had become more and more impulsive.
"Miss Zhang, what are you going to do next?" Lu Xuan calmed the killing intent in his heart and asked.
"I don't know." Zhang Dongshuang shook her head. Her eyes were blank. Her parents were dead, she had obtained the inheritance, and she had gotten her revenge. Now, she no longer had any goals.
Hearing Zhang Dongshuang's answer, Lu Xuan did not say anything, but Peng Xu, who was at the side, was already anxious. He quickly moved closer to Zhang Dongshuang's ear and whispered, "Miss, let's go with Young Hero Lu."
Hearing this, Zhang Dongshuang's confused eyes gradually brightened. Yes, she could follow Lu Xuan. As long as Lu Xuan was there, she would not feel lonely. She would be at ease. However, would he be willing to follow her?
Zhang Dongshuang bit her red lips lightly and made up her mind. She immediately knelt down and said, "Young Hero Lu, I have nowhere else to go. I am indebted to Young Hero for taking care of me during this period of time. If Young Hero doesn't mind, I am willing to serve Young Hero as a servant for the rest of my life.
Seeing Zhang Dongshuang suddenly kneel down, Lu Xuan hurriedly pulled her up and said, "Miss Zhang, why do you have to do this? I've already received the protection of your Zhang Family's ancestors. It's natural for me to work for the Zhang Family. I already feel guilty for not being able to save your parents in time. How can I let you be my servant?"
Hearing this, Zhang Dongshuang's eyes turned red. Her tears fell down like they were free. "So, Young Hero Lu is not willing to accept me."
Lu Xuan was suddenly troubled. He quickly said, "That's not what I meant. If you're willing to follow me, then follow me."
Hearing this, Zhang Dongshuang's tears immediately stopped. Although her eyes were still red, there was a hint of joy in her eyes. She was like a pear blossoming in tears, but her smile was like a rainbow after the rain. It was extremely beautiful.
