Tang Ji was breathing rapidly and his facial features were almost twisted. His fingers clung to the ground tightly. Because of overexertion, his nails fell off and were covered in blood. He looked extremely miserable.
"Zhentian, why don't you tell Chen to stop?" Yin Susu could not bear to see this.
"Alright then …" Lu Zhentian nodded and also felt that it was too cruel. However, before he could say anything, Lu Chen slightly shook his head with an abnormally determined gaze.
"Father, I know what you want to say."
"But last night, if we lost, everyone in Lu Family would become a pile of corpses." Lu Chen's voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly heard by his parents.
"This …"
"Sigh." Lu Zhentian let out a long sigh and didn't say anything more. Yin Susu, who was standing to the side, came to a realization. She turned her head around and no longer looked at Tang Ji's miserable state.
"Young master is even more bold than the Patriarch." Looking at Lu Chen's figure, Uncle Fu silently nodded his head. Lu Chen might be young, but even Lu Zhentian couldn't compare to him in terms of bravery.
"I can't take it anymore!"
"I will tell you everything you all want to know!" Tang Ji roared with the only strength he had left in his body.
"Uncle Fu, feed him another stalk!" Although Tang Ji had concealed it well, he had only lowered his head temporarily. He might not tell the whole truth, as humanity would only show its true nature when it was at its worst.
The screams became louder and the smell of blood pervaded the air.
"Young Master." Looking at Lu Chen's figure, Gemini didn't feel unfamiliar. On the contrary, she felt admiration for him. He was merciless to his enemies and he cared for his family and friends. This gave her a sense of security.
An hour later, Tang Ji lay on the cold floor, his eyes glazed over.
"Can you tell me the truth now?" A warm smile was hung on Lu Chen's face, but in Tang Ji's eyes, it was like a demonic smile, causing his heart to tremble uncontrollably.
"I say …"
… ….
As expected, Tang Ji spoke everything he knew. It turned out that several years ago, Wu Hai had already made contact with Tang Family in order to take over Lu Family. And, Lu Chen's martial spirit was crippled by someone, it was Tang Family that caused Wu Hai to do such a good deed!
"That ungrateful Wu Hai!"
"To think that we've been treating them so well for so many years." Yin Susu bellowed angrily as she widened her beautiful eyes.
When Lu Chen crippled his martial spirit, it had been a huge blow to his Lu Family! The development of the Lu Family back then was not any worse than that of the Fang Family's.
"Madam, don't be angry."
"If I have the chance, I'll personally kill Wu Tie!" Lu Zhentian's eyes turned slightly cold as he said in a deep voice. Now that things had progressed to this point, they finally understood the cause and effect. The Tang Family must have feared that the Lu Family would become the second Fang Family, which was why they continuously suppressed it. Since Blue Cloud City was such a big place, if there was an extra strong and flourishing Lu Family, then it would have much less benefit. And right now, the city competition was about to begin, so the other side had decided to cooperate with Wu Hai and attempt to subvert the entire Lu Family!
Lu Chen helplessly smiled bitterly. According to Tang Ji, most likely it was because his martial spirit had recovered and displayed too strong of a performance, that was why Tang Family allowed Wu Hai to fight in front of the Large Competition.
"Let me ask you, how many Innate Martial Master Stage experts do you have? "What realm has Tang Xiong reached now?" Lu Zhentian asked seriously after pondering for a moment. Since they had already fallen out, he had to get a clear understanding of the other party's strength.
"Cough cough …" I personally saw four or five Innate Martial Master Stage experts and as for Patriarch Tang Xiong, even though I have served him for more than ten years, I have never seen him make a single move. " Tang Ji coughed and said with a weak expression.
Four to five Innate Martial Master Stage experts?
"Are you telling the truth?" Lu Zhentian was stunned, he took a deep breath and suddenly said. Although he had long since heard that Tang Family were strong, he didn't expect that they were strong to such an extent! There were countless profound practitioners, but there were only a handful of experts in the Innate Martial Master Stage. With so many of the experts at the top of the Tang Family, it was no wonder that they could stand alone in the city. Moreover, this didn't even include the Patriarch Tang Xiong!
His Tang Family foundation was truly unfathomable!
"Hmph, now do you know fear?" Tang Ji snorted, his pale face showing a hint of pride.
"Uncle Fu …"
"Actually, your Lu Family is still alright. There are many Wu Clan and other forces in the city controlling you, so Innate Martial Master Stage Warriors need to be in charge of every corner." Hearing Lu Chen's voice, Tang Ji trembled subconsciously and quickly changed his tone.
"Even so, our Tang Family still cannot be underestimated." Uncle Fu let out a helpless sigh. The gap between the two families was too huge, and with the current Lu Family, it was still difficult to fight head on with them.
Lu Chen's brows twitched, Tang Family did indeed have some strength. With Blue Cloud City, a single Innate Martial Master Stage expert was enough to intimidate anyone in four directions, let alone four or five people working together. Although Devil Ape were at the peak of the Fourth Level Devil Beast s, it was not a problem to deal with two or three Innate realm experts, but if they still had hidden strength in their Tang Family, it would still be difficult to resist them with just their father and Uncle Fu.
Strength! The most important thing was that he wasn't strong enough!
"Zhentian, what do we do now?" Yin Susu's initial anger towards Tang Family had not been quelled, but now that she heard this news, she felt her scalp tingling. Although her cultivation level in the Martial Dao was not high, she knew how terrifying Innate Martial Master Stage experts were.
"Chen, what do you think?" Lu Zhentian didn't reply to Yin Susu and instead looked at Lu Chen.
For a moment, the gaze of everyone in the Lu Family all fell on Lu Chen.
Lu Chen felt a bit helpless as he felt the burning gazes. According to his character in his previous life, he had already been beaten to the brink of death by someone, there was no point in wasting words! they would directly rush up the Tang Family s for a fight. They could kill as many as they could, but the situation now was different.
There were not only his parents and Gemini Uncle Fu, there were also other ordinary, innocent servants in the Lu Family. It would have been better if he was confident in destroying them, otherwise, in the face of the fierce retaliation from Tang Family, he might not be able to protect his parents, but he might not be able to protect Gemini and the others.
Even if he did not have the hidden combat power, in the event that a family he was on good terms with came out to help, his Lu Family would be in great danger, and at that time, he would not even have the time to regret it.
"Father, let's endure for now. Even if we don't use their Tang Family, there's still a chance right now. Can't we make them pay a bit of interest on their Tang Family first?" Lu Chen smiled.
"Chen, are you talking about the competition within the city the day after tomorrow?" Yin Susu didn't wait for Lu Zhentian's reply. She subconsciously opened her mouth and frowned, worry appearing on her face.
"Are you sure?"
"Brother Tang Family is hard to deal with, especially that young man Tang Jie. Even I can't see through him.
"In addition, in the younger generation of the martial families and Han Family of the other great clans, there are also quite a few decent people." Lu Zhentian frowned and said in a deep voice. He did not say this because he doubted Lu Chen's strength, but because he was worried about the latter's safety.
The talent that this son of his showed far exceeded that of his youth. Lu Zhentian had already considered Lu Chen's safety more important than himself.
