Han Family, Courtyard.
After Lu An returned, he locked himself in his room. He didn't cultivate, nor did he rest to heal his injuries. He just sat alone on a chair, frowning. His expression was calm and dignified.
The wind was blowing outside, and the cold air entered the room through the window, but it didn't make Lu An react.
He had been sitting there for nearly an hour, and during this hour, he had been thinking about nothing else but whether his actions today were correct.
He grew up in Tabukal, in the slave den. Even though he was no longer a slave, he still hated the people who made slaves. Every time he saw slaves being enslaved, or a bandit nest like the Chu Family, he felt that it was hard to control his emotions.
Although he had been in the slave den for twelve years, and there was almost nothing that could make him angry, this was one of them.
He was thinking if he should be so reckless.
Slaves didn't only exist in the Tian Cheng Kingdom and Ziye Kingdom. They existed in the entire Eight Ancient Continents. No matter if it was a big or small country, Lu An had never heard of a country that didn't have slaves. Now, he had been to many cities and had seen countless slaves. Was he really going to kill anyone he saw?
He was only a Level 1 Heavenly Master. If it wasn't for the Han Family, he couldn't afford to offend the Chu Family. After today's incident, the Chu Family would definitely find trouble with the Han Family. It was also because of his impulsiveness that the Han Family faced so many threats. Not only that, but in the end, his actions didn't change a thing.
Thinking of this, Lu An's frown deepened. What he was doing now seemed to be just to make himself feel at ease and justified. Whether it was for the slaves or his friends, it wouldn't be of any help.
Taking a deep breath, Lu An raised his head and looked out the window. No matter what, today's incident couldn't happen again. Unless he had the ability to eliminate all future troubles, he couldn't do such a thing.
However, no one knew how much pressure this seemingly ordinary decision put on Lu An.
Since he had made up his mind, Lu An didn't hesitate anymore. His body was sore, his organs were bleeding, and his muscles were torn to varying degrees. There was still a fierce battle tomorrow. The most important thing for him now was to recuperate so that he could go all out tomorrow.
Thus, from the time he returned to the courtyard in the afternoon until late at night, Lu An didn't cultivate. Around midnight, Lu An lay on the comfortable bed and fell asleep.
In less than half an hour, Lu An's closed eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly woke up. However, he did not open his eyes and continued to lie on the bed, pretending to be asleep. Even the frequency of his breathing did not change.
Creak —
There was a slight gust of wind, and the unlocked window was pushed open. Then, under the moonlight, a black shadow flashed past and quickly entered the house.
This speed was extremely fast, and apart from the sound of the wind, there was no sound at all. The sound of the wind only lasted for a moment. It sounded as if the wind outside had suddenly become stronger. That was all.
In the dark room, a black shadow entered the inner room almost silently. The black shadow looked around and saw the person lying on the bed. The figure paused slightly.
Then, the black shadow tiptoed towards the bed. When the black shadow came to the side of the bed, Lu An's sleeping face was right in front of his eyes. Steady breathing, quiet face, everything was defenceless.
The black shadow frowned slightly, and then slowly stretched out a hand, going straight for Lu An's neck …
The distance was getting closer.
Closer and closer.
Finally, when the palm was less than three inches away from Lu An's neck, the black shadow's eyes lit up. His palm suddenly increased in speed, and was about to reach forward.
However, at the same time, a pair of red eyes opened. In the dark room, like a demon looking at the black shadow, the black shadow was really frightened!
The sudden opening of the red eyes not only frightened the black shadow, but also scared the black shadow into quickly retracting his hand. But at this moment, Lu An's hand had already reached out!
Pa!
Before the black shadow could retract his hand, his wrist was instantly caught by Lu An.
Feeling that he was caught, the black shadow was even more panicked, especially since he had not yet escaped from the horror of the pair of red eyes. This caused his whole body to stiffen, and he was so scared that he almost did not dare to move!
However, Lu An did not show any mercy. After grabbing the black shadow's wrist, he used all his strength and instantly pulled the black shadow in front of him. At the same time, he raised his right leg and hit the black shadow's Dantian with his knee!
"Hmph …"
With a muffled groan, the black shadow's strength dissipated instantly. At this moment, Lu An stretched out his right hand and grabbed the black shadow's neck. Then, he used all his strength to turn around and flung the black shadow into the air!
Bang!
After a sound, Lu An was already half-kneeling on the bed. At this moment, his left hand grabbed the black shadow's right wrist, his right hand was choking the black shadow's Dantian, and his right knee was pressing against the black shadow's Dantian.
"Who sent you!" Lu An's red eyes were particularly obvious in the dark. Looking at the masked man in black, he shouted in a low voice, "Tell me now!"
The black shadow was struggling under Lu An's body. His free left hand had been grabbing Lu An's neck, and his right hand was trying to push Lu An up with all his strength.
Moreover, what shocked Lu An was that the black shadow's strength was really strong. Even though his Dantian was being pressed down by Lu An, he was still able to explode with great strength. He even seemed to be able to push Lu An up!
Seeing this, Lu An frowned. In an instant, frost appeared on his right knee. He did not want to kill this person, because he wanted to find out who wanted to kill him. If it was the Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame, this person would definitely die. If it was the Deep Ice, it would only seal this person's Dantian and destroy his cultivation.
However, when his Deep Ice appeared on his knee, he suddenly smelled a burst of fragrance!
After entering the realm of the Demon Gods, his five senses had increased by several folds. Although this fragrance was light, it was very obvious. In a flash, Lu An smelled it.
Moreover, he had smelled this fragrance before.
Following that, his eyes suddenly stared blankly, and he suddenly jumped down from the bed. Following that, he quickly lit up the lamp at the side, illuminating the entire room.
Then, he once again came to the bedside, stretched out his hand, and removed the mask from the black shadow's face.
Lu An was completely stunned.
This familiar face, if it was not Wang Xue, who else could it be?
Only to see Wang Xue lying on his bed, her beautiful face was filled with an uncomfortable expression. Because of Lu An's heavy blow, her graceful body was tossing and turning on the bed, looking like she was in extreme pain.
"Why is it you?" Lu An was shocked, following that his face gradually sank. The red pupils in his eyes disappeared, and he asked aloud.
The woman on his bed was breathing laboriously, clutching her dantian as she curled up in pain. Lu An frowned at the side, after thinking for a while, he threw over a Constitution-Enhancing Pill.
Wang Xue stretched out her hand to catch it, and placed it in her mouth. After a while, her complexion finally improved, and her dantian was no longer in pain.
Lu An saw Wang Xue's breathing gradually stabilized, and asked again. "It's so late, what are you doing here?"
Hearing Lu An's reprimand, Wang Xue climbed up from the bed, sat on the bedside, and looked at Lu An with a face full of resentment, as if she wanted to kill him.
Looking at Wang Xue's murderous eyes, Lu An frowned, the red in his eyes gradually reappeared, and suddenly a murderous aura filled the small room.
Looking at Lu An's red eyes, and feeling the murderous aura, Wang Xue's body trembled, and the anger that had just risen suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Wang Xue's eyebrows tightened, and her voice was filled with anger. Looking at Lu An, she bit her lip and said, "I'm here to discuss a deal with you!"
"A deal?" Lu An frowned and asked, "What kind of deal?"
"Tomorrow's deal!" Wang Xue covered her dantian, which was still very painful, and said angrily, "Aren't you going to fight for the Han Clan tomorrow? I'm here for this!"
Lu An frowned. He was not a fool, and he naturally understood Wang Xue's purpose. However, he did not directly refuse. Instead, he leaned on the table and looked at Wang Xue quietly.
"Speak," Lu An said in a deep voice. "I'm listening."
