Level Up in Martial World

Chapter 275: Bloodline Extractor Completed

Lu Zhen slowly made his way outside with a sigh on his face.

Just then, his crimson gaze saw Lu Qing standing there with patience.

"What are you doing here, Lu Qing? You can come in." Lu Zhen said with a frown on his face.

The guards were visibly shocked when they heard this. However, since it was the leader's command, they let her enter.

There were also a group of women who were all watching this with shock written on their faces.

"Is Sister Lu Qing really acquainted with Leader Lu Zhen?"

"You can't be serious. Her cultivation is barely a martial trainee. You need to tell me this is a dream."

"No, this isn't a dream."

"I thought she was kidding when she said she wanted to enter the main palace without any disturbance, but it looks like this is not true."

Lu Zhen frowned as he looked at Lu Qing, who slowly made his way towards him with a calm expression. "What is all this drama for?"

"Leader." Lu Qing bowed with courtesy.

"Hmm," Lu Zhen nodded his head with a frown on his face. "Tell me what is going on here."

Hearing this, a bitter expression appeared on Lu Qing's face.

"The thing is that, young master, you haven't announced that I am working as an assistant till now…" Lu Qing said with a smile, however, her mouth that curled upward seemed to be forced and bitter as well.

"Oh." Lu Zhen nodded his head as he understood the situation already by the things she has told him.

"Guards." He spoke in a cold tone.

"Yes, yes, young master." The two guards hurriedly scurried off with a terrified expression on their faces.

"Did you guys stop her?"

"This…"

"I want an answer, sis, or not?"

"Yes." The two guards said with their expression bowing towards him.

"Good, then you guys can leave for today. I am giving you an eternal vacation from guard duty from now on." Lu Zhen spoke casually without a care.

"Leader…."

Both the guards' eyes turned terrified when the realization of Lu Zhen's words sank in, as their expression morphed into pure horror with their body trembling with fear at the words of him.

It was almost like a death sentence to them.

They didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this situation.

One of them wanted to speak some words, however, Lu Zhen's crimson turned even colder seeing this.

"You will also leave the Lu family as well." Lu Zhen turned around and beckoned Lu Qing to follow him as he went away with Lu Qing following him.

The guards' eyes widened to the zenith as they fell to the ground with broken eyes.

If losing their jobs were akin to almost a death sentence, then kicking them out of the Lu Imperial Family was their final shot to their chance of even living in this world.

Both of them looked at each other with fear written in their eyes.

"We are dead."

They both said in union as they wanted to beg Lu Zhen, however, they weren't given a chance to even crawl two steps when other guards came and dragged them away.

"These guys have been a big bully for a long time now. They have faced the consequences of their actions." One of the guards snickered with some fake pity.

"Kekeke, they won't be arrogant for long now. Oh, wait, they might be arrogant even in their death tombs. Who knows?" Another laughed while dragging the two helpless guards.

"That's what they get for being arrogant just because they got in through connection."

The two guards also heard these words, however, they didn't say anything. After all, they have lost all hope by now.

They could only utilize the rest of the time they have to live.

As the two guards were gone, another two guards replaced them swiftly as they looked at everyone with a fierce expression.

"Remember, if you saw the badge of the leader that he especially issued, we must not be disrespectful and allow them to enter without hesitation, or we might be like them as well…" One of the guards said with a serious expression as he looked at the dragged-away guards.

The other also nodded his head with agreement.

Actually, these two were themselves to blame for their idiocy because Lu Qing had already shown a badge to them that was especially issued by the Leader, which allowed them entry.

However, since they were hired through connections and other things, with the combination of them being too negligent and arrogant, they were bound to suffer such a fate. It was an inevitable thing.

Lu Zhen glanced at the group of women who were whispering with a smile on his face as he waved at them before turning around and leaving with Lu Qing.

The moment he did, all the women blushed almost simultaneously.

"Kya! Leader looked at me." A girl said with her blush deepening, and she closed herself while hugging her own body.

"No, Leader looked at me." Another girl retorted as they bickered with each other.

Lu Zhen looked at this helplessly while shaking his head.

While Lu Qing smiled, "Looks like young master Lu Zhen has a lot of charm."

Lu Zhen turned around at Lu Qing. "Of course, I have charms. Our Lu Imperial family has excellent genetics combined with my cultivation and the genes I have from my mother as well." He spoke with a proud tone.

Lu Qing nodded her head with agreement.

"So, what did you contact me for, Lu Qing?" Lu Zhen asked with a strange expression as they walked in a slow pace.

"Well, the devices are already completed, young master." She said respectfully.

Lu Zhen's crimson eyes brightened when he heard this. "The devices are already prepared?"

"Yes, young master. Due to the number of people you have given us, our work power has increased by at least ten times, causing our work to progress by leaps and bounds."

Lu Zhen nodded his head with a satisfied expression. "Good, what about the guards that I told you to work on?"

"The training of those people is also going well, young masters. Not only are they being trained properly, royalty is being engraved in them." Lu Qing spoke.

Lu Zhen nodded his head. He was no saint. How could he nurture people who would stab him in the back? That was just plain stupidity to him, and he would never understand such a person.

Besides, it wasn't like he was saving them because if he didn't bring them here, most probably they would all die by the forest wild beasts.

So Lu Zhen had no shred of hesitation at all.

"After I return from the ancestors' palace, I would come to your research," Lu Zhen nonchalantly said.

"Yes, young master." Lu Qing bowed and left the place.

However, just as she was about to leave, Lu Zhen suddenly asked.

"How is my mother-in-law doing?" Lu Zhen asked with a smirk on his face.

Lu Qing turned around with a confused expression. "Mother-in-law?"

"The woman I gave you, Xiaolong Gui."

"Oh, young master, she is being well taken care of." Lu Qing said with a strange expression.

With that said, Lu Zhen and Lu Qing both separated ways.
