“Lu Huanxiu, what are you doing here?”
In the living room in the front yard, Zhang Mudie’s eyes were murderous, and her face was as cold as ice.
“We’re both court heads of the Martial Academy. Isn’t it a little rude for Junior Sister Zhang to say this?” Lu Huanxiu, who was dressed in a black robe, smiled. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was really a polite person.
“You’re not welcome here! Please leave!” Zhang Mudie was determined.
“Alright! Since Junior Sister Zhang doesn’t care about the friendship between fellow disciples, I won’t interfere in this matter. You can explain to Brother Yang and Young Master Zheng yourself.”
Lu Huanxiu was not angry. He only looked at Zhang Mudie teasingly and gave way.
Behind him stood a tall and muscular old man with a long beard and a handsome young master in white.
“Greetings, Grandmaster Yang. Young master, may I know your name?” Zhang Mu Die cupped her fists.
The long-bearded old man was the Yang family’s ancestor, Yang Xie. He was a Grandmaster at the Five Qi Perfection realm and was also Lu Yi and Lu Yingxuan’s greatest enemy.
As for the white-robed young master with the surname Zheng, it was very likely that he came from one of the three aristocratic families in Cloud
Prefecture, the Zheng family. The Zheng family was a true top faction in Yuan
Chang County.
“Zheng Xingui.” The white-robed young master’s expression was rather arrogant as he only gave his name.
“Young Master Zheng is a direct descendant of the Zheng family. He’s only 25 years old and is already in the top 100 of the Qilin Ranking.” Lu Huanxiu looked smug.
“So it’s Young Master Zheng. I’m sorry.” Zhang Mudie was shocked. She did not understand why Lu Huixing brought such a troublesome person.
“Court Head Zhang, I won’t keep you in suspense anymore. We’re here this time to investigate the case of the Nine Nether Mansion’s Officiator being killed in Jade Frost City. According to the information we obtained, you went out some time ago and closed your door to refuse guests the moment you returned. May I ask where your disciple, Lu Yingxuan, is now? Can you let her appear?” Yang Xie went straight to the point.
Originally, he did not take Lu Yingxuan seriously. However, through the information sent by the Nine Nether Mansion, Lu Yingxuan had actually easily killed an Officiator of the Nine Nether Mansion. This was incredible.
The weakest Officiator of the Nine Nether Mansion was a Bind-level five-vein martial artist, equivalent to a Three Qi Grandmaster.
Moreover, the physical fitness of demons far exceeded that of humans. They usually had the ability to fight above their level.
It was not difficult for the Officiator of Nine Nether Mansion to fight against the Four Qi Grandmaster.
Lu Yingxuan was only 26 years old now?
This rate of improvement already made Yang Xie feel apprehensive.
He was currently at the Five Qi Perfection realm and was not confident that he could break through to the Fiend Condensation Realm.
If he failed to break through and Lu Yingxuan came to take revenge, the Yang family would be finished.
Therefore, he decided to cooperate with the Nine Nether Mansion to kill this threat in advance.
Moreover, if he made a contribution, he could also obtain the resources to break through to the Martial Saint Realm. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
“What does the death of the Officiator of Nine Nether Mansion have to do with us? Yingxuan is not feeling well and is resting now. She doesn’t have time to meet guests.” Zhang Mudie rejected decisively. How could the Nine Nether Mansion extend its reach so far?
“Junior Sister Zhang, you’re wrong. Disciple-niece Lu only needs to show her face and let us check if there’s any demonic energy left in her body to prove her innocence. Junior Sister Zhang, you’re so evasive. Could it be that the Officiator of Nine Nether Mansion really died at your hands?!” Lu Huanxiu was shocked.
“Lu Huanxiu, when did you become a subordinate of the demons? Just because you suspect us, we have to prove our innocence? How can that be? The Zhang family is not made of mud!”
Zhang Mudie’s attitude was unyielding. This was the inner city. She did not believe that these people would attack directly.
“I don’t have the time to argue with you. Hand her over, or I’ll go find her myself?” Zheng Xingui suddenly said, his tone unquestionable.
As a direct descendant of the Zheng family, there was naturally no need for him to listen to the Nine Nether Mansion. However, the Nine Nether Mansion, the Hundred Spirit Sect, and the White Tiger Aristocratic Family were all collecting some martial artists with special physiques. Furthermore, they were very willing to bid. He was very envious of some resources, so he took the initiative to cause trouble.
“You!” Zhang Mudie’s heart sank. If it was the Zheng family who made a move, the Zhang family behind her would definitely not help her. Even if Zheng
Xingui only represented himself, his strength could not be underestimated.
No one would doubt the value of the top 100 of the Qilin Ranking.
“Hmph! Junior Sister Zhang, you didn’t expect this day to come, right?!” When Lu Huanxiu saw Zhang Mudie fall silent, he immediately revealed a satisfied sneer. Back then, he could take back the grudge of having his leg broken with interest today. Who asked them to not know what was good for them and insisted on provoking the Nine Nether Mansion?
“Junior Sister, what happened?” At this moment, Lu Yi rushed to the living room.
“Senior Brother Lu? You came at the right time! I can capture you and make Disciple-Niece Lu appear obediently!” When Lu Huanxiu saw Lu Yi appear, he pounced forward and raised his hand to claw at Lu Yi’s chest.
“Lu Huanxiu! How dare you!”
Bang!
Zhang Mudie was shocked. She immediately blocked Lu Huanxiu’s retreat and fought him head-on.
Deng deng deng!
The huge recoil made Zhang Mudie take a few steps back. She felt a sharp pain in her palm.
“Lu Huanxiu, you broke through?!” Zhang Mudie looked at Lu Huanxiu in shock.
Two years ago, his legs were broken and his blood qi was greatly damaged. He was already lucky to be able to recover. Now, he had actually broken through to the Three Qi Grandmaster Realm.
“Hmph! When you guys were talking about love, I didn’t dare to relax for a moment as I cultivated diligently!” Lu Huanxiu laughed loudly. He felt that the humiliation he had suffered previously was swept away at this moment. He was extremely happy. Working for the Nine Nether Mansion was the best choice he had made..
