"I … I don't know who hit me …" Lu Changwei covered his face.
Lu Changwei covered his face with his hands. He was in a daze. His head was still buzzing, and he was in a daze.
"Idiot! You don't even know who hit you! You've embarrassed the Lu family! "Lu Mingjun barked." You better think about it! If we don't get our revenge, people will think that we're pushovers! "
"Yes … I … Let me think …" Lu Changwei gulped.
Lu Changwei gulped and frowned. "I remember that there was a bitch who tried to assassinate me last night, but I managed to subdue her! Then, I heard something behind me … I turned around and saw a purplish-gold palm slapping towards me … I … I fainted from the slap … "
"Purplish gold?!" Lu Mingjun frowned. "What kind of subordinate's Ethereal Force is that? Why haven't I heard of it before? "
"I don't know … It was just for a second. I didn't even see it clearly …" Lu Changwei said sheepishly.
"Where's the woman?" Lu Mingjun asked.
"Ran … Ran away …" Lu Changwei quickly explained.
"It was Zhu Dachang who rushed in to save me … Zhu Dachang said that he only saw the woman, but there was no other assassin. More importantly, the woman seemed to have disappeared into thin air! She managed to escape Zhu Dachang's pursuit in an instant!"
"Useless! You can't even catch a woman! You're all useless! "Lu Mingjun scolded." I told you not to hang out with those scoundrel friends! When something happens, none of them are of any use! "
"Yes … Father, you're right …" Lu Changwei nodded, not even daring to breathe.
"You're lucky that you're not injured. If not, how are you going to fight for a place in the Elite Hunting Competition in nine days?" Lu Mingjun narrowed his eyes at Lu Changwei. Suddenly, he frowned and asked, "Where's your storage bracelet?"
"Bracelet? Where's my bracelet? " Lu Changwei was shocked. He jumped up from his bed and looked around, but he could not find his storage bracelet.
"Don't tell me that you lost it!" Lu Mingjun's face darkened, and his aura was like that of a ferocious tiger.
The rest of the Lu family members were shocked as well.
Judging from their reactions, it was easy to tell that the storage bracelets contained something extremely important.
Lu Changwei's face was as white as a sheet, and he broke out in cold sweat. "Stolen! My Storage Bracelet must have been stolen by that bitch!"
"Idiot! Trash! Retard! I shouldn't have given you the key to the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure! "Lu Mingjun scolded Lu Changwei like a ferocious tiger.
"I know I was wrong … Father! I know I was wrong … Please don't be angry … "Lu Changwei immediately kneeled on the ground. His face was pale.
"You know you're wrong? What's the use of knowing you're wrong now? "
Lu Mingjun was furious. "This Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure is a treasure that the Overgrown Forest nobles buried 500 years ago! I went through a lot of trouble to find the key to the hidden treasure. I wanted you to present it to the Ninth Young Lord during the Elite Hunting Competition to buy your future! "
"Half a month ago, I told you to stay at home and prepare for the Elite Hunt! You, on the other hand, eat, drink, whore, and gamble with that group of scoundrels all day long, and now you've become even more powerful! You've even lost the key! That's destroying your own future! You're so stupid! "
Lu Changwei's forehead, back, and palms were all soaked in cold sweat. He knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.
"Say something! You piece of trash! You don't even have a shred of responsibility when the time comes! "Lu Mingjun's eyes were spitting fire.
"I …" Lu Changwei sucked in a breath of cold air. "I'll go to the Silver Plume Rearguard Commandery right now … Start a city-wide manhunt!"
"Idiot! Is this your idea? " Lu Mingjun roared. "If you were the one who stole the key, would you still be in Silver Plume City, waiting to be hunted down?"
"This …" Lu Changwei's tears were rolling down his cheeks. In his memory, his father was strict, but this was the first time he had ever lost his temper like this.
It was obvious how important that key was!
"Uncle Lu, please calm down. I have an idea that can lure the assassin out!" A fat man with big ears stepped forward.
Lu Mingjun was still fuming. He glared at the fat man and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you call me uncle? "
The fat man's expression did not change. "I am Zhu Dachang. I am the first heir to the Zhu family in the west of the city. In your eyes, I am not worth mentioning! But, I have a good relationship with Master Wei. When I see that he is in trouble, I will do my best to help! "
Lu Mingjun's expression changed. "I'll give you ten seconds. If you can't explain yourself clearly, then scram!"
Zhu Dachang said confidently, "If I'm not wrong, the exact location of the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure is still a secret that no one knows about!
"In other words, although the assassin got the key, he didn't know what it was!"
All we have to do is spread the word that the Lu family has found the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure, and that the map is in the Lu residence! The assassin will most likely sneak into the residence to steal the map!
When that happens, we'll be able to catch a turtle in a jar! Once we've caught it, the key will naturally be in our hands! "
Everyone nodded in agreement, agreeing that what Zhu Dachang said made sense.
Lu Mingjun narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. Then, he smiled and praised, "My good nephew! That's a good plan! I was too angry just now. My words were a little too much. I hope you don't mind. Please help Changwei in the future! "
"Don't worry, Uncle Lu. I treat Master Wei like my own brother. I will do my best to help him!" Zhu Dachang smiled.
Lu Mingjun immediately agreed. "Alright! This matter will be handled according to your wishes! As long as we catch the assassin, you will be one of us! "
"I will do my best!" Zhu Dachang promised.
… …
In the secret space.
Chen Xiaobei had formed the Head Piercing Seven Arrows Seal. Because he had used up all his energy, he was feeling groggy.
Since he was going to sleep anyway, Chen Xiaobei called Xiao 'er out.
"Bro Bei! Why are you calling me now? I'm not awake yet! "Xiao 'er grumbled.
"Look at these three Spiritual Items!"
Chen Xiaobei took out the three Spiritual Items from his Infinite Space Ring. "If I eat them, how long will I sleep for?"
"Huh?! Two Five-star Spiritual Items and one Seven-star Spiritual Item! "Xiao 'er's eyes lit up." This is a rare delicacy! "
"You little glutton! Hurry up and answer my question. I won't forget about you later! "Chen Xiaobei said.
"Alright!"
Xiao 'er chuckled. "Bro Bei, with your current cultivation, a Five-star Spiritual Item can increase your health by 3,000. You will need to sleep for three days! A Seven-star Spiritual Item can increase your health by 20,000. You will need to sleep for 20 days! "
