In the main hall, Lu An and Xiao Gao are sitting with all the Kong family's backbones.
The moment Lu An said that, Kong Jinshang is stunned.
Following that, Kong Jinshang suddenly remembers that last year at the Starfire Academy's Grudge Gathering, Lu An once defeated Wang Zhenggang who was ranked third with the strength of a level four celestial. At that time, it caused a huge sensation. With Lu An's current strength, it's really hard to say.
However, he also heard from his daughter that Lu An had escaped, and Wang Zhenggang had been cultivating in Midnight Pavilion. The gap between a level one celestial master and a celestial is still huge. If Lu An is still a celestial, then he has no chance of winning.
After thinking for a while, Kong Jinshang looks at Lu An and no longer dares to show any hostility. He asks, "May I ask student Lu, how is your current strength?"
…
When Lu An revealed his strength, Kong Jinshang no longer hesitated and immediately decided to completely break off with the Wang family. After making the decision, Butler Gao leaves the Kong residence while Lu An goes to another place.

The structure and decorations of the Kong residence are very exquisite. Every scenery is worthy of being carefully appreciated. Especially since the Kong family is in the aquaculture business, there are many fish in the pond of the Kong residence that can't be seen anywhere else.
Within the Kong Estate, in an elegant courtyard.
In the room of the courtyard, the table is filled with delicious delicacies. The aroma of the delicacies overflows, and anyone who smells it will have an appetite.
However, not far from the table, a beautiful woman is sitting on a chair, staring blankly at the candlestick beside her. Her mind is in a trance, as if she has lost her mind.
On the side, the servant girl is full of worry when she sees this scene. After thinking for a while, she says for the umpteenth time, "Miss, you should eat something!"
However, Kong Yan doesn't react at all, as if she can't hear it at all. She still sits there as if she has lost all her vitality.
"Miss …" The servant girl is even more anxious and says, "If you continue like this, something will really happen! Why don't you just eat a little … "
Hearing the servant girl's anxious tone, Kong Yan finally moves. Looking at the table full of delicacies, she has no interest and says, "You don't have to persuade me. No matter what anyone says, I won't eat."
"What if I say it?"
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, causing the maid to be stunned. Not only her, even Kong Yan was slightly startled, because she felt that this voice was both unfamiliar and indescribably familiar.
Then, she hurriedly turned to look at the door and immediately saw the person standing there.
"Lu An?!" Kong Yan cried out in surprise.
Following that, Kong Yan was seen to have strength from god knows where. She actually stood up immediately and hurriedly came in front of Lu An.
"Sister Yan." With a smile on his face, Lu An looked at Kong Yan and said softly, "Long time no see."
"Is it really you?" Kong Yan listened to the familiar tone and found it hard to believe. She asked, "Where have you been for the past year?"
However, as soon as the words left her mouth, Kong Yan suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, "How did you get in? Did my father see it? "
She was indeed very worried because a year ago, Lu An and the Kong family had broken off relations. Her father had said that Lu An was not allowed to take a step into the Kong family's business!
Looking at Kong Yan's worry, Lu An smiled slightly. He never kept people in suspense. After entering the house, he directly told Kong Yan everything that had just happened.
Of course, this also included the fact that he was a level two heavenly master.
After saying a long string of words, Lu An slightly relaxed and said to Kong Yan, "How is it, can we eat this time?"
However, Kong Yan's expression was still shocked. She looked at Lu An, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"You … are a level two heavenly master?" Kong Yan's voice was trembling as she asked.
"Guaranteed to be genuine." Lu An smiled and said softly.
"…"
Kong Yan could not imagine that after a year of hard work, she had finally broken through to level one heavenly master recently. She originally thought that she was already not bad, but compared to Lu An, she was so far behind!
"Demon …" After a long time, Kong Yan said.
When Lu An heard this, he suddenly felt a little awkward, but he still brought Kong Yan to the dining table. Without the worries from before, Kong Yan naturally felt hungry and began to eat slowly.
After finishing the meal, Lu An sat by the side to accompany her. Kong Yan looked at Lu An. Compared to a year ago, Lu An was much taller and did not look as immature as before. His current outfit made him look more like a young master.
"Then what are your plans for coming back?" Kong Yan asked.
"First, I will fight against the rebels with everyone." Lu An thought for a moment and said, "And Wang Zhenggang, I heard that he is coming back to help you solve this problem."
Hearing Lu An's answer, Kong Yan's expression changed slightly and asked softly, "Why are you helping me?"
"Didn't I answer before?" Lu An smiled and said, "I used to be a poor child, and sister Yan gave me my first new clothes."
"…"
Indeed, the last time Lu An defeated Wang Zhenggang for her, he said the same thing.
"Then what about after we settle the matter?" Kong Yan asked again.
"After we settle it …" Lu An thought for a moment and said, "Maybe we'll have to leave Meteor Trail City."
Hearing Lu An's words, Kong Yan's heart sank, and she actually felt an indescribable pressure. She bit her lower lip and tried to ask, "Can't you not leave?"
Lu An looked at Kong Yan and was startled. He was not stupid and felt that something was wrong with Kong Yan, but he still answered seriously, "I'm afraid I can't. I still have some things to do."
Hearing this, Kong Yan clenched her fists, but did not say anything in the end.
Actually, in this year or so, she had thought through many things. Especially after the engagement, she was even more certain of the thoughts in her heart.
That day, when she invited Lu An to her home for dinner, she actually wanted to let Lu An leave a good impression on her family, so that in the future …
At that time, her father had taken the initiative to propose marriage to Lu An at the banquet. Although she was very angry at that time, it was actually because she was angry from embarrassment.
For the past year, she had been thinking about Lu An, but Lu An was eight years younger than her. Every time she thought about this, she would feel very ashamed.
Therefore, she knew that it was impossible, not to mention that Lu An might very well like that girl called Fu Yu.
"You are very strong now, and Meteor Trail City is indeed unable to satisfy you …" In the end, Kong Yan did not say anything and said softly, "Remember to come back more often in the future. Just don't forget about this place."
"That's for sure." Lu An smiled and said, "Meteor Trail City will always be my home, and sister Yan will always be my senior sister."
Hearing Lu An's words, Kong Yan smiled and completely put down her burden and started chatting with Lu An.
That night, the two of them chatted until very, very late.

Seven days later.
In these seven days, Lu An spent most of his time with the major families discussing how to resist the rebel army. Ever since the rebel army's invasion, there had been no movement in the past seven days.
However, the lack of movement did not mean that it was a good thing. It was very likely that it was the eve of a storm. Everyone was deeply worried, ready to fight at any moment.
At this time, it was morning. Everyone gathered again to discuss how to defeat the rebel army.
With Lu An's participation, the situation was much clearer than before, and many of the plans could be implemented. At the head of the table, the dean raised his head and looked at Chu Ling in the distance and asked, "How is the mayor?"
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Chu Ling. After all, she was the mayor's only daughter, so naturally, she would know the news firsthand.
Lu An also looked at Chu Ling. This was not the first time he sat at the same table with her to discuss the problem. Although the two of them had never spoken, Lu An could feel that Chu Ling had changed compared to a year ago.
Although her expression was still arrogant and conceited, she was no longer as arrogant as before. In the past, she always looked down on others, but now, she could try to treat others as equals.
Chu Ling looked around. This was not the first time she had been asked such a question. She shook her head slightly and said, "My father is still in seclusion and has not come out. However, I estimate that it will be soon. "
Hearing the first half of the sentence, everyone was a little disappointed. However, hearing the second half, everyone was delighted!
The dean hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"
Chu Ling looked at the dean and said, "The last time my father appeared, he told me that when his aura is unstable, it is the time for him to break through. In the past two days, his aura has become unstable, as if he is about to break through. "
Hearing this news, the dean excitedly slammed the table and said loudly, "Good! As long as the mayor can break through, it will not be difficult to defend Meteor Trail City! "
"That's right!" Everyone nodded, their expressions wild with joy. As long as there was a Level 3 Heavenly Master, everyone would have a backbone!
Lu An also heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. If he didn't have to do anything, that would be for the best.
However, just as everyone was rejoicing, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the door. Following that, they saw a person rushing into the meeting room!
"Not good!" The rebel army … It's attacking again!
