“The thing is… Huh… ” Xu Hongyi sighed.
Xu Hongyi told Lu Xuan what had happened in the last couple of days.
The problem involved the lone Cultivator Great Ancestor that they were planning to invite.
At first, the Xu family had no way out. With no other choice, they went to find the Great Ancestor.
The lone Cultivator Great Ancestor had offered to help the Xu family but on one condition: He wanted the Xu family to find the longevity grass. As long as they found the longevity grass, the lone Cultivator Great Ancestor of Tianhe would protect the Xu family for a while.
Who knew that when the Xu family went to give him the longevity grass, the Tianhe Great Ancestor had suddenly backed out on his promise. Not only did he swallow the longevity grass, but he had also killed the people sent by the Xu family.
It seems his true colors had been revealed!
This matter had caused a massive commotion!
No one expected the Tianhe Great Ancestor to do such a thing!
To be more precise, the Xu family expected there to be consequences with that!
After all, this Tianhe Great Ancestor was notorious for being both corrupt and ruthless among the lone Cultivators. He did not care about any rules at all!
He went from being an unknown lone Cultivator to a famous expert in the Divine Transformation Realm. Of course, he naturally had to do many ruthless things to get there.
The Xu family wasn’t ignorant to this, but they had never taken it to heart!
This was because, at the time, there was no one willing to stand up and help them.
Yunlong Village had a great reputation. Many people in the nearby area grew up believing Yunlong Village’s reputation from an early age.
Everyone knew that Yunlong Village was so powerful that ordinary people paled in comparison. Even if a Great Ancestor in the Divine Transformation Realm met someone from Yunlong Village, that person would only die.
Even if the Tianhe Great Ancestor had done many bad deeds, the entire Xu family was powerless under such circumstances.
The Tianhe Great Ancestor just turned them away after they found the longevity grass.
This was a huge loss for the entire Xu family!
Fortunately, Xu Tianying returned this time. He even found and brought back Senior Lu.
Nobody knew how strong Senior Lu was, but they knew one thing: Lu Xuan must’ve been an expert in the Divine Transformation Realm. There was no doubting that.
This was also the main reason why the Xu family wasn’t all that desperate. They hadn’t lost much confidence from that.
Lu Xuan looked at Xu Hongyi and asked, “Do you want me to help you get the longevity grass back?”
“No, I don’t dare!”
Xu Hongyi hurriedly said, “No, I wouldn’t dare to do that! How could we have such high hopes for that?!”
Xu Hongyi quickly added. The many experts in the Divine Transformation Realm feared one another and would not easily make a move. With that in mind, how could he dare to expect Lu Xuan to go fight against that Tianhe Great Ancestor for the Xu family’s sake?
Lu Hongyi quickly added, “It’s just that Tianhe Great Ancestor is now spewing out nonsense, saying that he wants to deal with Senior Lu!”
Through Xu Hongyi’s story, Lu Xuan now found out that such a thing had happened during the past few days.
Not only did the Tianhe Great Ancestor snatch away the longevity grass, but he also injured all the people sent by the Xu family.
He was even spewing nonsense, saying that he wanted Lu Xuan to die a miserable death.
The way he was acting was very frustrating!
It was as if Lu Xuan had killed his whole family!
Even Xu Hongyi didn’t quite understand why, but Lu Xuan only did after hearing about what had happened.
It turned out that his arrival had most likely interrupted the Tianhe Great Ancestor’s plan.
This Tianhe Great Ancestor had most likely been secretly plotting against the Xu family for a long time, but he had never made a move while the Xu family’s Great Ancestor was around.
After the Xu family’s Great Ancestor passed away, the Tianhe Great Ancestor began targeting the Xu family.
The two sides even complemented each other.
This was because after the Xu family’s Great Ancestor passed away, the Xu family no longer had a strong expert to take charge of things.
On the other hand, the Tianhe Great Ancestor was in the Divine Transformation Realm. However, he was born as a lone Cultivator. Unlike the Xu family, he had no forces under his command.
Lu Xuan never saw the Xu family as anything particularly amazing. In reality, the Xu family’s background and heritage were both pretty profound. After all, a family couldn’t achieve anything great without accumulating things over generations.
Although the Xu family never had a Great Ancestor in the Divine Transformation Realm before, they always had an ancestor who was half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm.
After going through generations of development, its heritage was very profound!
This was exactly what the Tianhe Great Ancestor needed the most. He always had his sights set on the Xu family’s power!
He wanted to take control of the Xu family’s power so that he could save more than 1,000 years of development that stretched through several generations!
Of course, Lu Xuan had done such a thing in his previous life. After all, he himself was born as a lone Cultivator. Compared with those proud children from famous sects, Lu Xuan had been too far behind.
Of course, the quickest way to bridge the gap was to take control of the existing forces.
The Tianhe Great Ancestor had enough strength to suppress everyone who opposed him in the Xu family, after all.
However, he had never expected Lu Xuan to have suddenly appeared when everything he planned had reached its climax. He had suddenly become the supporter of the Xu family without even doing anything.
In the Tianhe Great Ancestor’s view, it seemed that Lu Xuan had the same thoughts that he had. Because of this, Lu Xuan had long been regarded as a thorn in his side. That was why Tianhe Great Ancestor wanted to tear him apart.
After all, cutting one’s wealth was as bad as killing one’s parents!
Lu Xuan had suddenly taken away the wealth of the Tianhe Great Ancestor. Naturally, he became angry.
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said, “I see. He’s just a clown!”
Xu Hongyi quickly said. “Senior Lu must be careful. Although this Tianhe Great Ancestor is very powerful, he is notorious for going back on his words. Considering how bad his character is, I don’t think he will let it go. There’s no doubt that he’ll target Senior Lu!”
He hadn’t thought about it as deeply as Lu Xuan had, but he obviously realized that no matter what the reason was, the Tianhe Great Ancestor might’ve been planning to attack the Xu family.
In that case, the Xu family would have one more powerful enemy at the Divine Transformation Realm.
Naturally, Lu Xuan was their only hope. They didn’t want anything to happen to him!
Lu Xuan snorted coldly. “It doesn’t matter. That Tianhe Great Ancestor is a joke! When it comes down to it, I’m sure I suddenly angered the Tianhe Great Ancestor somehow. Also, what you said is right. I have to be careful with him, but I can’t keep avoiding him forever. I might as well go and take care of him!”
Xu Hongyi and Xu Tianying stared at him with wide eyes. They never expected Lu Xuan to suddenly put forward such an idea. Obviously, this far exceeded their expectations.
At first, they just intended to let Lu Xuan be more careful. Now, Lu Xuan was going to go find and defeat the Tianhe Great Ancestor.
With such a decisive character, he didn’t seem to hesitate at all.
