"Father!"
Zhou Xin was overjoyed and flew up.
"Father, come, let me introduce you. This is Young Master Lu, Lu Shaoqing. It's all thanks to Young Master Lu that I could come back alive to see you!"
Zhou Xin pulled the middle-aged man and introduced him to Lu Ming.
"Junior Lu Shaoqing greets Patriarch Lu!"
Lu Ming went up and cupped his fist.
"Haha, Young Master Lu is too polite. You saved my daughter and are the benefactor of my Zhou Family. Come, let's go in first. You must have had a tough journey. Take a rest first. I'll prepare a banquet tomorrow to thank Young Master Lu!"
Family Head Zhou said politely.
"Family Head Zhou, you're too polite!"
Lu Ming cupped his fist.
The group walked into the Zhou Family.
The Zhou Family was huge. Among the peaks, there were palaces, pavilions, cultivation rooms, etc.
The air was filled with dense fire attribute spiritual energy. Obviously, the Zhou Family cultivated fire attribute cultivation techniques.
After entering the Zhou Family, they quickly arranged an elegant courtyard for Lu Ming to stay in.
In the room, Lu Ming sat cross-legged.
"This is a good place to comprehend the fire attribute!"
Immediately after, he closed his eyes and began to comprehend the attribute.
After this period of cultivation, his attributes had improved. However, other than the water attribute, the other attributes still did not break through to the fourth level.
Although the wind, fire, and thunder attributes were close to the fourth level, they were still a little short and did not break through.
.....
In the Family Head Zhou's room, Zhou Xin stood in front of him.
At this moment, the Family Head Zhou's eyes were filled with excitement. He looked at Zhou Xin and said, "Xin-er, that treasure, did you really get it?"
"Father, I got it!"
Zhou Xin was also excited. Her palm glowed and a jade box appeared. She passed it to the Family Head Zhou.
The Family Head Zhou took the jade box. His hands were trembling. He took a deep breath and opened the jade box. There was a jade token inside.
The Family Head Zhou took out the jade token and scanned the contents of the jade token. Slowly, his body began to tremble and he was overjoyed.
"It's true, it's true, a supreme treasure, a supreme treasure. It's just like the ancient records. With it, my Zhou Family has hope of rising, haha!"
The head of the Zhou family couldn't help but laugh.
"Father, but the materials on it are not easy to find!"
Zhou Xin said.
Patriarch Zhou took a deep breath to calm himself down and said, "Yes, it's not easy to find the materials, but there's always hope. By the way, Xin 'er, how did you escape? I heard that Cold-blood Hall had mobilized a large force this time. Did you really rely on that Lu brat to save you?"
Zhou Xin nodded and said, "Indeed, it was Lu Shaoqing who saved me that allowed me to escape. Lu Shaoqing is a peerless genius. I heard that even the Sanguinarum was defeated by him!"
"What? Even Sanguinarum lost to him! "
The patriarch of the Zhou Clan was shocked. He found it hard to believe because he had never heard of Lu Shaoqing's name before.
Following that, the Zhou Clan's Patriarch asked, "What's the background of this Lu Shaoqing? Which power is he from? Even if he's a peerless genius, I'm afraid it'll be difficult for him to save you from the experts of Cold-blood Hall. "
"Father, it's like this …"
Immediately, Zhou Xin told her father all the news she had heard about Lu Ming and how Lu Ming had saved her.
"What? Grotto-Heaven Treasure? You said Lu Shaoqing has a Grotto-Heaven Treasure? "
After hearing Zhou Xin's story, the Zhou Clan's Patriarch widened his eyes in shock. An incomparably hot flame flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, it must be a Grotto-Heaven Treasure without a doubt. It's a universe of its own and living creatures can live in it. It's a hundred thousand miles wide and is exactly the same as the legendary Grotto-Heaven Treasure!"
Zhou Xin said with certainty.
She was also shocked when Lu Ming first took her into the Mountain River Diagram.
"Grotto-Heaven Treasure, it's a Grotto-Heaven Treasure!"
The flame in the Zhou Clan's Patriarch's eyes grew hotter and hotter. He then asked, "Xin 'er, do you think Lu Shaoqing is from any overlord power?"
"Yes, I heard that Lu Shaoqing told others!"
Zhou Xin said.
"Good, that's good!"
A murderous intent flashed in the Zhou Clan's Patriarch's eyes.
Zhou Xin was startled and said, "Father, what are you trying to do?"
"Xin 'er, as you know, our Zhou Clan once had a Nine Heavens Supreme tens of thousands of years ago. It's a powerful force that's only second to the overlords, but it's still not as strong as it is today. At this rate, it's only a matter of time before we're wiped out in the Middle Continent."
"It's not enough to rely on that treasure alone, as the materials are too hard to find. However, Lu Shaoqing has a Grotto-Heaven Treasure. He must have found a great opportunity to become so powerful at such a young age. The Martial Arts, Martial Skills, secret techniques, and even the other treasures he has are absolutely shocking. If he belongs to our Zhou Clan, together with that treasure, our Zhou Clan will have a chance to rise again!"
The Zhou Clan's Patriarch said coldly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Father, are … are you planning to kill … Lu Shaoqing?"
Zhou Xin said with a trembling voice.
"No. Capture him first and seal his cultivation base. Then, force him to hand over his Paradise Treasure. Hand over all his treasures and reveal his secrets. After that, kill him. After all, a treasure like the Paradise Treasure must have been stored in his sea of consciousness. Even if we kill him, we won't be able to take it out."
The Zhou Clan's Patriarch's eyes were very cold, and his voice was even colder.
Zhou Xin shuddered and said with a trembling voice, "But father, Lu Shaoqing has saved me, twice. I can't bear to treat him like this!"
"Silly!"
The Zhou Clan's Patriarch waved his sleeve and scolded, "So what if he saved you? This world is so cruel. If you are indecisive and not ruthless enough, you won't be able to rise again. Sooner or later, you will die at the hands of others. Those who want to do big things don't care about trifles. As long as we can get Lu Shaoqing's secrets and treasures, our Zhou Clan will have a chance to rise again. Do you want to see our Zhou Clan decline? "
"One more thing. You met Lu Shaoqing in the Ancient Herb Garden, and later faced the encirclement of Cold-blood Hall. You risked your life and didn't hand over the storage ring. Won't Lu Shaoqing be suspicious of all this? He will more or less think of something. If this news spreads and Cold-blood Hall comes, our Zhou Clan will be destroyed. So no matter what, Lu Shaoqing can't be allowed to live! "
The Zhou Clan's Patriarch stared at Zhou Xin with bright eyes. Under the gaze of the Zhou Clan's Patriarch, Zhou Xin wavered.
In the end, she sighed and said, "Father, Xin 'er will listen to everything you say!"
"Well, that's more like it. How about this, we'll hold a banquet for him tomorrow. I'll put Qingming Powder in the food and wine. This kind of powder is colorless and tasteless. No matter how high one's cultivation is, he won't be able to sense it. Once he takes it, he won't be able to mobilize his Genuine Vitality."
"Since Lu Shaoqing cares so much about you, I guess he's interested in you and won't guard against you. When he takes the Qingming Powder, he'll be at our mercy!"
The Zhou Clan's Patriarch had a look of confidence.
"Father, Lu Shaoqing is not a person to be trifled with. Qingming Powder alone may not be enough. We can't let our guard down when facing such a genius!"
Zhou Xin said.
"Yes, you're right. I was careless. I'll report to the Patriarch and ask him to come out of seclusion. Even if something goes wrong, the Patriarch can easily suppress Lu Shaoqing!"
