"Something?"
Hearing Old Master Lu's words with surprise, Lu Tianxing was somewhat puzzled, not understanding why Old Master Lu said that, but still nodded and said, "Grandfather, I don't know what you want me to agree to."
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing's words, Old Master Lu took a deep breath and said, "Tianxing, if it truly reaches an irreparable point, I hope you can spare your uncle's life, even if you expel him from the Lu Family. I just hope you don't kill him; spare his life and let him live as an ordinary person."
"Grandfather, I will spare his life."
Lu Tianxing hesitated for a moment, not understanding why Old Master Lu said this, but eventually nodded.
Seeing Lu Tianxing nod in agreement, Old Master Lu seemed to have a huge weight lifted from his heart, letting out a heavy sigh and said, "Tianxing, go and call Haoyue and the others in!"
Lu Tianxing nodded, said nothing more, stood up, and walked outside.
"Wait."
Just as Lu Tianxing was about to leave the bedroom, Old Master Lu suddenly called out to him, looking at him with a face full of guilt and said, "Tianxing, I'm sorry for what you're about to endure."
Old Master Lu knew very well that if he faked his death now, Lu Tianxing would certainly be blamed or even scolded by the Lu Family, after all, the Sword Qi within him had been suppressed and would not erupt in the short term. However, if he chose to fake his death at this time, as soon as there was any discord in the Lu Family, all the angry eyes would turn toward Lu Tianxing, definitely thinking that his death was related to Lu Tianxing. By then, Lu Tianxing would likely become a target of public criticism, and the grievance he would endure could only be imagined.
Hearing Old Master Lu's words, Lu Tianxing was slightly taken aback, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing, just a small grievance, it's okay."
"Tianxing, I'm sorry for what you're about to endure."
Old Master Lu looked deeply at Lu Tianxing, and his True Qi suddenly surged up, shooting into the sky like a rainbow, without any concealment. Amidst the overwhelming momentum, a sharp Sword Intent followed, rising into the sky like a dragon or tiger, crushing the previous momentum into powder. The vast Sword Qi, like stormy waves, swept outward in all directions.
"What, Sword Qi!"
"Where did this Sword Qi come from? Is it coming from the old master's courtyard?"
"Impossible, impossible, how could this be, how could this be, the Great Elder clearly said the old master wouldn't be in trouble for the time being."
At the moment the Sword Qi emanated, the expressions of Lu Bowen, Lu Hongda and others changed in an instant, unable to control their inner fluctuations, they strode toward the courtyard's direction.
"Stop."
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded, and several Lu Family Guards appeared out of nowhere, like ghosts, blocking Lu Bowen and the others. Their eyes were cold to the extreme, with one hand already placed on their sword's hilt, ready to draw it at any moment to kill.
"Step aside, can't you see the commotion in the old master's room?" Lu Hongda's face turned grim as he looked at the Lu Family Guards in front of him, and as he spoke, Lu Hongda forcefully pushed one of the Lu Family Guards.
"Clang!"
Before Lu Hongda could move further, there was the sound of a long blade being drawn. The Lu Family Guard had directly pulled out his sword, holding it horizontally in front of his chest, and said with an unperturbed tone, "No one is allowed to enter without the Family Head's orders. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy."
"What did you say? I am Lu Hongda. Get out of the way! What are you trying to do?"
Lu Hongda was furious, glaring at the Lu Family Guards in front of him, but he dared not make any moves because he noticed that the moment he stepped forward, all the Lu Family Guards drew their swords from their waists, their eyes beginning to emit a trace of killing intent.
"By order of the Family Head, within a hundred meters, no one is allowed to approach. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy."
The Lu Family Guards spoke with an unperturbed tone, their eyes looking at Lu Hongda and the others without any change, as if they were looking at dead people.
This is why Lu Hongda and others feared the Lu Family Guards and did not dare to let Old Master Lu hand over the guards to Lu Tianxing or Lu Haoyue. The Lu Family Guards are like a sword in the hands of the Head of the Lu Family, caring neither for right nor wrong, only for orders. The Family Head's command is as good as law.
"You..."
And just as the Sword Qi shot into the sky, not only did the people of the Lu Family feel it, the entire Suzhou City seemed to sense that fleeting Sword Qi.
The Jiang Family!
Jiang Haochen suddenly stood up from the sofa and rushed to the balcony. Feeling the direction from which the Sword Qi emanated, his expression slightly froze, then a wild smile appeared on his face: "The Lu Family, hahaha, Lu Family, your death has finally arrived."
Meanwhile, in another direction, Yang Tiansi and Tang Fengxiao from the Tang Family were discussing how to target the Lu Family. When they sensed the fleeting Sword Qi in the air, Yang Tiansi and Tang Fengxiao both abruptly stood up from their chairs, eyes gazing toward the direction of the Lu Family.
"Hahaha, it's the Sword Qi of the Yang Family, it's the unique Sword Qi of the Yang Family, hahaha, it finally erupted. After more than two decades, Lu Family, this time I will make you vanish into thin air."
Yang Tiansi laughed arrogantly, eyes filled with bloodthirsty killing intent, and said to Tang Fengxiao: "Mr. Tang, it seems this time it's a blessing in disguise. I didn't expect that little bastard Lu Tianxing to return and help that old undead of the Lu Family die faster. Good, very good, Mr. Tang, it seems our plan has succeeded."
"Young Master Yang, you're joking. It's only half-successful. After all, we haven't yet confirmed whether Old Master Lu is truly dead or if it's just a setup. This is critical for us. If it's just a setup and we fall into it, the only outcome is death."
Tang Fengxiao's eyes displayed some gravity, not as happy as one might imagine. To him, unless the news of Old Master Lu's death is truly confirmed, he wouldn't dare let his guard down. After all, fighting his way into Beijing with just one sword back in the day wasn't easy to deal with. It might lead to their entire annihilation.
"Haha, Mr. Tang, you're being too cautious. Before I came, my family's ancestor told me that as long as this Sword Qi erupts, that old undead of the Lu Family is definitely dead with no chance of reviving. If you don't believe it, when Lu Hongda arrives tonight, you can ask him in person to see if that old undead thing is dead."
Yang Tiansi laughed heartily, eyes filled with murderous intent as he stared at the Lu Family. It would not be long before he would make the Lu Family disappear, ensuring Lu Tianxing has no place to be buried, to quench his hatred.
