The moment he said that, the entire room fell silent!
Chen, who had stood up to reprimand Lu An, instantly stood rooted to the ground, completely stunned.
The next Immortal Master?
After a short pause, Chen's expression became even more furious. He roared at Lu An, "What are you talking about? What next Immortal Master?! "
"You know very well what I'm talking about." Lu An looked at the roaring Chen and said calmly, "There's only you and me here. You've already fallen to such a state, why don't you dare to admit it? Could it be … You think that after this, you still have a chance to become the Immortal Master? "
"You!!" Chen immediately raised his hand and pointed at Lu An. His other hand clenched into a fist, as though he was about to attack at any moment!
The people outside could not sense what they were talking about, but once they attacked, the four Immortal Lords outside would definitely sense it clearly.
In fact, Lu An was right.
Chen did this not only to eliminate Sengoku and the Hachiko clan, but also to inherit the position of the Immortal Master. The latter was even more important, and it was the reason why Chen had the former idea.
It was very simple. Chen wanted to contribute.
No matter what, Chen was someone with a bottom line. Although he did not adhere to Sengoku's ancestral teachings, he had his own considerations about whether he was good or evil. No matter what, he would not do things like killing his own siblings or killing his own parents. Therefore, in order to fight for the position of the Immortal Master, his only choice was to contribute.
Lu An looked at Chen's furious expression and said calmly, "It's because of Yao, right?"
When Chen heard that, his body trembled!
Chen gritted his teeth and stared at Lu An without saying a word.
That's right … It was because of Yao.
To Chen, Qing was not a threat. Chen's cultivation talent was above Qing's, and his strength was higher than Qing's. More importantly, Qing did not have the intention to become the Immortal Master. She even rejected it. Qing liked to be idle, or rather, she liked to be alone. Qing did not like to deal with interpersonal relationships, so Chen was not worried about Qing's existence at all.
As for Yao, many years ago, Chen did not expect that his youngest sister would become a threat to him.
Chen was much older than Yao and had watched his sister grow up. When his younger sister was young, she didn't like to cultivate at all. In fact, she didn't like to cultivate at all. It was as if she had a natural sense of rejection. Her parents doted on her, and the females in Sengoku were free to choose whether or not they wanted to cultivate, so her parents did not force her.
Although Yao was against cultivation, she wasn't a mischievous child. On the contrary, she was an especially gentle and considerate little girl since she was young. She was very gentle to everyone, and was very polite. There was no one who disliked Yao Yao. Chen also liked his sister from the bottom of his heart. A younger brother was different from a younger sister. He had sworn many times that he would protect his younger sister for the rest of his life.
However … Chen really did not expect that his younger sister, who had once rejected cultivation, would become his greatest threat to becoming the Immortal Master.
Once upon a time, Chen had thought that he would definitely become the Immortal Master. There was no other possibility. After having his younger sister, his parents didn't want to have any more children. Out of the three of them, he was the only one who wanted to become the Immortal Master. Furthermore, he was the eldest son in the first place. Not only him, but almost everyone had thought that he would be the next Immortal Master.
Even his parents had clearly told Chen that he would be the future Immortal Master, and that he had to hold himself to the high standards of the future Immortal Master. All this while, Chen had been working hard for this goal. However, in the past few years, he realized that everything had changed.
Ever since his younger sister started cultivating, ever since she displayed an extremely high talent for cultivation, her cultivation speed was shocking, and she had entered the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Her future was limitless. His heart had completely turned cold.
Yao's reputation was gradually rising in Sengoku, and she had the momentum to surpass him. Furthermore, even his parents no longer said that he would be the future Immortal Master. They had even told Yao about the Immortal Master's position, causing his heart to become more and more desolate.
He had worked hard for this goal for close to forty years. Until now, everything he had done was for the sake of becoming the Immortal Master. He couldn't give up just like that!
Why? Why did it have to be his younger sister, who disliked cultivation the most, who had such a high talent for cultivation?! He didn't understand. Could this be fate making a fool out of him?
Lu An looked at the furious Chen. In his pair of dark eyes, Lu An could clearly see that Chen's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness. Furthermore, the anger and unwillingness weren't just directed at him.
Chen's plan indeed didn't have any intention of harming Sengoku, which meant that Chen hadn't completely turned bad. However, even so, he had already severely damaged Sengoku's bottom line.
Lu An could guess Chen's thoughts, but he wasn't Chen after all. He didn't know what Chen had experienced, and he didn't understand Chen's obsession with the Immortal Master's position. He didn't comment on whether Chen's thoughts were right or wrong, but he felt that it was a pity.
"I'm not targeting you." Lu An looked at Chen, and calmly said. "I have no grudges with you, and you're Yao's elder brother. I have no reason to harm you. However, to me, Fu Yu is my bottom line. No matter who it is, as long as they want to harm Fu Yu, they're my enemy. I will never be merciful to my enemies. "
"…"
Chen gritted his teeth, and looked at Lu An.
"You're Yao's elder brother. On account of Yao, I'll give you a chance." Lu An didn't mind Chen's emotions, and calmly said. "I can forget about this matter, and let bygones be bygones. However, if I find out that you have any intentions of harming Fu Yu, or my family, I won't be merciful."
"Trust me." Lu An looked at Chen, and said. "If I want to kill you, I'll definitely be able to kill you."
"…"
Chen's body trembled when he heard those words. Looking at Lu An's dark eyes, he stood on the spot without saying a single word. He simply clenched his fists, and his eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
"That's all I want to say." Lu An stood up, and said. "You're on your own."
After saying those words, Lu An didn't even look at Chen, nor did he bid farewell. Instead, he headed straight for the door.
The four Immortal Sovereigns outside could sense every single movement in the house, and naturally, they could sense that Lu An was walking towards the door. Immediately, the formation at the door activated, and after Lu An walked out, it immediately closed.
Though they couldn't hear what was said inside, they could clearly sense Lu An's seat and Chen's furious stance. When Lu An walked out and arrived in front of the four Immortal Sovereigns, Sheng immediately asked. "What did young master Lu talk to him about?"
"Nothing much, just some casual chit-chat." Lu An lightly smiled, and cupped his hands. "Since the matter has been settled, I'll leave the rest to the four seniors. We won't be of much help, so we'll take our leave first. "
Seeing that Lu An was about to leave, the four Immortal Sovereigns were a little stunned. However, it was true that there was no use for Lu An And Yao to stay here. The detailed interrogation afterwards would have to depend on the four of them.
"Oh right, there's one more thing." Suddenly, Sheng thought of something, and immediately called out to Lu An who was about to leave. "On the first day of September, which is twenty days later, we'll meet Qi …"
Hearing this, Lu An knew that the people from Sengoku couldn't leave. He said, "Senior, don't worry. I'll personally bring people there and try my best to capture him."
Sheng was overjoyed and very grateful. He really wanted to capture Qi. Even if he had to execute him personally, he would never let Qi hang out with the people from the Deathkin outside! Whether it was as a father or as one of the Immortal Sovereigns, he would never allow Qi to make another mistake!
"Thank you for your trouble!" Sheng cupped his hands and said.
Lu An bowed again, and left with Yao, heading towards the teleportation formation at the edge of Sengoku. When the two people from the Hachiko clan who were guarding here saw Lu An and Yao appear again, their hearts couldn't help but tighten.
The two of them felt lucky that Lu An didn't say anything, and just directly opened the Gate of the Divine World and left. This made the two of them heave a huge sigh of relief. Lu An's attitude made them believe that he wouldn't leak this matter out.
Lu An And Yao directly returned home. This matter was far from over.
