The Lu family.
Lu Yun Ting and Lu Zhong Tian, who were involved in the case, were thrown into jail immediately. Their bodyguards, their subordinates, and even many of their trusted subordinates were all arrested and brought to justice.
The head of the Lu family, Lu Zhan Xin, sighed. He came back from outside with heavy steps.
He had just come out of jail. He went to ask those two people.
"Who killed Qin Fangyang?"
"Is Qin Fangyang dead? Is it confirmed? "
"How can we find clues about Qin Fangyang?"
"This is already our Lu Clan's last and only hope!"
"Where can we find him?"
"Were you ordered by someone else?"
These were probably the questions that could give the Lu family a chance of survival.
Lu Zhan Xin was burning with anxiety. He asked again and again. This was already a top priority. At present, according to the Minister, there was still a glimmer of hope to find Qin Fangyang.
At least, the Lu family would be able to preserve their foundation and not be completely destroyed.
But if they couldn't find him …
The Nian family, the second most powerful family in Shang Jing, had already controlled the entrance and exit of this place.
Implicate the King of the Right and get punished?
What is the Lu family!
The Nian family had already spread the news that they didn't want any of the Lu family's properties. They would be auctioned and donated. Anyone who dared to touch them would be an enemy of the King of the Right! This was just to avenge the King of the Right.
As long as they couldn't hand over Qin Fangyang within the time limit set by the minister, they would immediately take action!
Not only the Lu family, but the other three families were also in the same situation.
Lu Zhan Xin walked into the house with a heavy heart.
The ancestor of the Lu family, Lu Wangsheng, personally came out to greet him. "How was it? Did he say anything? Any useful clues? "
Lu Zhan Xin shook his head.
"What did he say?"
Lu Wangsheng was anxious. "This is already a matter of life and death. What? He didn't say anything? "
Lu Zhan Xin sighed and said, "This matter … seems to be not as simple as we thought."
"Hmm?"
Lu Wangsheng frowned. "Is there anything else complicated about this matter? Is there something else? "
"Zhong Tian really doesn't know anything."
Lu Zhan Xin said in a low voice. "Yun Ting seems to know something, but he won't say it."
"Why is that? The Lu Clan is already in a desperate situation. Is he going to watch the entire Lu Clan die? "
"He said … if he didn't say anything, even if the Lu Clan declined, it wouldn't necessarily be extinct. But if you do, the Lu Clan is destined to be wiped out. There will be no luck. "
Lu Zhanxin sighed softly.
Lu Wangsheng frowned and said, "Doesn't that mean that the Fortune Court is in danger now?"
Lu Zhanxin sighed and said, "Yun Ting himself said that this might be the last time he sees her. After this, I'm afraid … he'll be silenced very soon."
Lu Wangsheng took a deep breath, "Originally, it was just killing Qin Fangyang, a teacher of Ancestral Dragon High Martial Arts. This matter only became a big deal after Minister Chu intervened. Before that, it was nothing. How did it end up like this? "
Lu Yunting was the Deputy Chief of the Black Ops in Shangjing!
He was a proper high-ranking official in Shang Jing, with a high position and power.
Who else would have the ability to make him the scapegoat for implicating his entire family and not dare to say anything?
Even under the pressure of the Sky Inspecting Minister, he still didn't dare to say anything!
It was just as Lu Wangsheng said.
Qin Fangyang's matter wasn't considered a big deal before. How did it end up like this?
Lu Zhanxin sighed and said, "I asked again and again, but the Fortune Court kept his mouth shut … This time, I was only given two minutes of visiting time."
"Two minutes, one billion!"
Lu Wangsheng sighed softly.
Yes, for these two minutes of visiting time, the Lu Clan paid a price of one billion.
Just for one sentence and one clue. But in the end, they didn't come out with anything and returned disappointed.
"Although the Minister's words carry enormous weight, but … after all, he can't personally preside over this matter. And in this … the benefits are too great. Many people with ulterior motives will use too many methods in the dark … After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the person in charge."
"The Fortune Court's concerns are also reasonable …"
"It can't be said that we didn't gain anything. In the end, we found out that there was a mastermind behind this matter … This money was well spent."
Lu Wangsheng said, "But now there are changes that prevent us from leaving Shang Jing as soon as possible."
"Why?" Lu Zhanxin said, "Didn't we agree that we've already submitted our resignation to His Majesty and got the approval of Shang Jing's security department? Our family will be exiled to the Five Poisons Valley in the far west, and we'll set off in these two days?"
Lu Wangsheng said, "You've been trying to smooth things over. I'm afraid you still don't know … Qin Fangyang's disciple, Zuo Xiaoduo, has already arrived in Shang Jing."
"Zuo Xiaoduo?"
Lu Zhan Xin frowned: "That Hidden Dragon Martial Genius? The strongest prodigy in the past hundred years? "
"Yes, that's him!"
"What's his background?"
"He's a native of Phoenix City. His family background is extremely simple, but he himself is indeed a peerless prodigy. It's not enough to say that he's the strongest prodigy in the past hundred years. He also has an elder sister, the Spiritual Thought Goddess who shook Shang Jing. She's currently working in the Nine Heavens Pavilion. She's the boss of the Guixuan Division and the continent's Guixuan Inspector. Her code name is Civet."
"The combat power of this pair of siblings is very strong."
Lu Wangsheng said.
"Even if they're peerless prodigies, they're still only at the Guixuan Division?" Lu Zhanxin said indifferently, "So what?"
"What I'm worried about is naturally not these two siblings, but the Nine Heavens Pavilion behind them."
Lu Wangsheng sighed and said, "When we leave, we won't be able to bring many trusted subordinates with us … Only those trustworthy family members can follow us. The others won't follow us at all."
"I believe that along the way, we'll definitely be intercepted and killed. You should understand the principle of everyone kicking a man who's down … At that time, I'm afraid it's not as safe as staying in Shang Jing."
"Here, at the very least, we're still in the imperial capital of the Empire. Under the feet of the Emperor, it's not a lawless territory. Even if some people want to make a move, they'll have to think twice!"
Lu Zhanxin's eyes burst with a fierce light. "Elder Ancestor, our Lu Clan is just too unlucky in this matter … It just so happened that the Sky Patrol Minister killed the chicken to warn the monkey and used us as a raft to warn the world! Naturally, we can't go against the Minister's orders. We can't even turn things around … But that Zuo Xiaoduo … "
Lu Wangsheng said, "What do you want?"
Lu Zhanxin took a deep breath and said, "You've said it yourself. That brat is just a native of a small border town. He has roots and doesn't have the strength of a Heavenly Transcendent. Rashly coming to Shang Jing and behaving atrociously is even more foolish and short-sighted. If he dares to come, we'll kill him on the spot. Who will say anything against us then?"
Lu Wangsheng said indifferently, "I advise you not to have such thoughts. Today is different from the past. Since Zuo Xiaoduo is here, he's here for revenge. Since he dares to come for revenge, he must have the confidence. "
"Our Lu Clan is already at the brink of collapse. We can't have our previous mentality and methods anymore … Right now, I'm only thinking of letting a few more people survive. At this time, I still want to vent my anger. Rest for now."
Lu Wangsheng sighed sorrowfully. "Zhanxin, why can't you see it clearly until now? Now, the Lu Clan is finished. At this juncture, it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. "
"You don't have to be so pessimistic."
Lu Zhanxin said unwillingly, "Even the minister only said that he would drive us out of the capital. He didn't say anything about killing us. Could it be that someone really wants to exterminate the Lu Clan?"
"The current situation …"
Lu Wangsheng sighed softly. "If a few children of the Lu Clan's direct bloodline can survive … this old man will already thank the heavens for treating our Lu Clan so well …"
Lu Zhanxin's face changed color.
"Even our ancestor's battle achievements … have been erased … This is the first time in his life that the minister has erased the battle achievements of an old friend who has already died!"
"Zhanxin ah … how can you still be so careless and arrogant?"
"Do you know? At that moment, if we were to sit and wait for death in exchange for the lives of a few direct descendants, I would be happy. No, I would be happy to see it happen. Why don't you think about the minister's tone at that time? "
Lu Wangsheng was senile. His eyes were watery.
"Are we supposed to stretch out our necks and let the enemy kill us for revenge? Not resist? "
Lu Zhanxin looked at Lu Wangsheng in disbelief.
"You'd better do that."
Lu Wangsheng said lightly, "That's the only way to survive."
Lu Zhanxin didn't say anything.
"This old man will go in and tidy up the ancestral tablets."
Lu Wangsheng turned around and warned, "Don't … have any thoughts of resistance. Not only to the people who want revenge, but also … to other people! You have to remember this old man's words. Our Lu Clan … can't afford to offend anyone now! "
Lu Zhanxin stood in the courtyard in a daze. He watched the curtain of night fall. He only felt sad.
Just after Lu Wangsheng entered the ancestral hall, a scream suddenly came from the Lu Clan's backyard.
A woman screamed shrilly, "Someone come quickly … How can I be poisoned … come …"
With this scream, it seemed like a prelude. Screams came from all directions, one after another.
Lu Zhanxin turned his head in panic. "What happened?"
"There's poison in the water …"
A Lu Clan member rushed out. His face was green. When he saw Lu Zhanxin's face, he couldn't help but shed tears of despair. "Clan Lord … you are also poisoned …"
"Hahaha …"
Lu Zhanxin laughed bitterly.
"Old Ancestor, we want to keep the peace. We want to be slaughtered in exchange for a way to live. But others … won't let us go …"
He felt a ball of fire in his heart suddenly burning.
In just a moment, the yuan power that he had cultivated for many years could no longer be contained!
"What kind of poison is this …"
Lu Zhanxin's body swayed. He sat on the ground with a poof.
The Lu Clan member who had just come out had already fallen to the ground. His whole body twitched. His facial features, seven apertures, suddenly spat out blue flames. He only spasmed for a moment before he stopped breathing.
Lu Zhanxin worked hard to circulate his yuan power. He looked miserable and didn't dare to move at all.
In the Lu Clan's big courtyard, shrill screams came from all directions. Blue flames kept coming out …
Even the infants were not spared.
Lu Wangsheng came out of the ancestral hall. He felt something was wrong. The ancestral tablets were scattered all over the ground. He rushed into the backyard like flying!
But he only saw corpses all over the ground!
Men, women, old, and young of the Lu Clan, no less than three thousand people, were all lying on the ground in disorder!
"Who is it!"
Lu Wangsheng roared. Tears flowed down his cheeks!
We already planned to not resist. We only asked for compassion. Why did they have to kill us like this?
Not even a chicken or dog was spared!
Not a single person from the Lu Clan was spared!
"No wonder … No wonder Zhanxin was allowed to meet Yun Ting … No wonder … So they already knew … Not a single person from the Lu Clan will survive!"
Lu Wangsheng felt the poison in his body acting up. His body was on the verge of collapse.
As the ancestor with the highest cultivation in the Lu Clan, Lu Wangsheng, who had reached the Skysoar Realm, was actually unable to suppress this strange poison!
"The Lu Clan is finished."
Lu Wangsheng tried his best to control the poison and staggered out. "Zhanxin, Zhanxin!"
He saw Lu Zhanxin sitting upright at the entrance of the courtyard, looking at him with a face full of despair.
"Ancestor … I … I can't hold on any longer …"
Lu Zhanxin's eyes bulged. "Ancestor … The Lu Clan … has been exterminated … Please … Hold on a little longer …"
Lu Zhanxin cried out, "Please … Hold on until Zuo Xiaoduo arrives …"
He mustered all his strength to say this. His body trembled. Suddenly, blue flames emerged from his seven orifices.
"I can't accept this …"
Lu Zhanxin cried out miserably in the blue flames, "I can't accept this …"
The flames rose, and the poison spread. Even his blood turned blue. His internal organs were destroyed. Blood spurted out from his mouth and nose, burning like flames …
This poison was extremely overbearing!
It did not leave anyone with a chance to live!
Lu Wangsheng's face was filled with grief. He slowly sat down and used all his remaining energy to protect his heart. He poured bottle after bottle of spirit water into his mouth.
I can't die!
Just like Zhanxin said, I have to wait!
I have to wait for Zuo Xiaoduo!
Lu Wangsheng's old face was filled with endless grief. He had absolute confidence that even if the minister gave the order, the entire Lu Clan would not be wiped out.
Even the old subordinates of the Heavenly King would not be so cruel.
Even if Zuo Xiaoduo came for revenge, even if Zuo Xiaoduo's cultivation was heaven-defying, he would not kill an infant.
As long as the bloodline remained, the Lu Clan would not be exterminated.
Only the mastermind behind the scenes would want the entire Lu Clan to be wiped out!
Now, the Lu Clan had no hope.
The extermination of the entire Lu Clan was a foregone conclusion.
Their only hope for revenge was Zuo Xiaoduo, who was coming to settle the score with them!
It had to be said that this was a kind of irony!
"Zuo Xiaoduo, don't you want revenge … Come quickly!"
Lu Wangsheng anxiously roared in his heart. "Although the Lu Clan is exterminated, as long as I have one breath left, I can still provide you with some clues …"
"Zuo Xiaoduo, why aren't you coming?!"
