At this time, Lu Bing’s aura had already neared the Thousand Year King realm! Even Lu Bu would not stand much chance of defeating her!
Lu Bing’s body descended slowly, landing on the ground. Her powerful Martial Dao Will surrounded her body, causing her to look like an empress!
Lu Bing’s aura slowly receded, and disappeared. A moment later, she went forward and greeted Bei Feng. “Family Head.”
“Alright, cultivation of the Martial Dao cannot be taken lightly. This time, you’ve been too rash. If you had ended up hurting your foundations, it would affect your breakthrough to the Thousand Year King realm,” Bei Feng warned seriously.
“This subordinate knows her mistake,” Lu Bing said with utmost respect. At the same time, she felt a lingering fear in her heart. For some reason, she had been seized by a strong desire to continue breaking through to the peak of the Hundred Year realm. Now that she thought about it calmly, it did not seem normal.
Bei Feng turned to Lu Bu and the rest as well, and said, “Although all of us cultivators chase after power, you must remember one thing. It needs to be us controlling the power, and not the power controlling us.”
“Yes!” everyone replied in unison.
Bei Feng nodded with satisfaction and instructed Lu Bing, “En. You shouldn’t continue cultivating in this period of time. Take the chance to adjust your mental state and completely master control over the rampant power.”
“Yes!” Lu Bing responded.
Bei Feng left and returned to the valley. A black fluid which changed forms constantly appeared in his hand, finally forming a sword!
If one observed it properly, this sword did not truly look like a sword, nor did it look like a saber!
This was a double-sided sword, but there was only one blade. The other side of the sword was filled with sharp shark tooth-like edges!
The entire sword was as straight as a pencil; one side was heavy, while the other was sharp. A black dragon coiled around the hilt, and the dragon scale patterns on the grip fitted with Bei Feng’s palm perfectly.
“A strong body is needed even if one wanted to forge iron. But, power cannot be neglected as well. Enough ants can also bite an elephant to death,” Bei Feng muttered to himself. A moment later, his voice suddenly rang out in Han Kui and the armadillo’s mind.
Within a range of a thousand meters, as long as Bei Feng willed it, his powerful mental power could directly communicate with any living beings.
“Moo!”
“Ao!”
Han Kui and the armadillo walked over unwillingly from a distance away as they looked warily at Bei Feng. These two Demonic Beasts were not silly at all. With a single look, they knew that this human had strange designs on them.
If not for the gangster rabbit suppressing them, without a doubt, these two would definitely get rid of Bei Feng at the first chance they got!
“There’s no need to be afraid, I’m not going to harm your lives. I just need you guys to coordinate with a small experiment. You just need to tell me what you feel. After we’re finished, these few spirit herbs will be yours.”
Bei Feng had a light smile on his face, like a strange uncle holding a lollipop to tempt a few lolis.
“Moo!”
“Ao!”
The two Demonic Beasts looked at each other and, after a short conversation, walked over to Bei Feng slowly.
There was no helping it—resisting was useless, and at this moment, they could only put their trust in this person before their eyes.
With a single thought, the Thousand Transformations powder appeared in Bei Feng’s palm. After that, he placed the powder before the two Demonic Beasts’ noses.
As the two Demonic Beasts breathed in, the imperceptible dust flowed into their bodies through their noses.
Bei Feng’s expression grew serious. After the two Demonic Beasts relaxed, his powerful mental power concentrated and gathered in front of them, seemingly wanting to see through the Demonic Beasts’ bodies!
“Ao!”
The armadillo’s pores stood on their ends, and the silver white scales on its back stiffened. Its eyes were filled with rage as it looked at Bei Feng.
“Moo!”
Han Kui’s reaction was not as intense as the armadillo’s, but its body trembled a little as the way it looked at Bei Feng grew strange, seemingly filled with disdain.
Bei Feng paused for a moment; why were the two Demonic Beasts’ expressions so strange?
“Looks like I’ve been overly wishful.” It was fine with Hundred Year realm Demonic Beasts, but the lifeforce of the Demonic Beasts at the Thousand Year King realm had already been changed qualitatively, becoming more perfect. Their bodies were enveloped in a layer of energy, preventing the invasion of mental power from external sources, causing it to be difficult to see through.
Bei Feng’s mental power could sense a layer of silverish light before the Demonic Beasts’ skin. No matter how he tried, he couldn’t see through the the barrier of light.
Undoubtedly, Bei Feng’s plan to use Thousand Transformations to control Thousand Year Kings had failed.
The brain was already extremely mysterious, and the slightest carelessness would result in the difference between life and death. Now that he couldn’t even see through the barrier of light, wanting to control the complex cells in the important regions of the two Demonic Beasts’ head was simply the dream of a fool.
“There’s nothing else, you all can go now.” Bei Feng smiled bitterly, knowing that he’d been thinking too fancifully. As expected, it wouldn’t be that easy. He should still take his time to build his own force step by step.
“Ao!”
“Moo?”
The two Demonic Beasts froze for a moment. They had already prepared themselves to be tortured thoroughly by this evil human. In the end, it was over just like that?
The two Demonic Beasts had a strange feeling in their hearts. If it was just this simple, you should have said it from the start, this King was worried for half a day!
“Alright, this is for your trouble.”
Bei Feng looked at the two Demonic Beasts that hadn’t left, and directly gave them the rare spirit herbs in his hand.
“It’s time to get ready to return,” Bei Feng muttered to himself and looked into the distance.
On the other side, on the Tianmu Planet, the Lu Family was gathered together.
“Father, the Zeng Family has bad intentions. In just one short month, over 10 of the restaurants under our Lu Family had been closed down,” Lu Qilin reported with a heavy expression.
Lu Baiyu looked at Lu Liang with a dark face, and said, “They’re bullying people too excessively! Big Brother, either the fish dies or the net splits; let’s go all out and fight them at most!”
“Second Brother, your words sound nice, but what do we have to fight the Zeng Family? Whether the net will be torn remains to be seen, but the fish will die for sure!” Zhu Mei said coldly.
When Zhu Mei’s words rang out, the entire hall fell silent. Everyone felt a sense of helplessness.
The Zeng Family was a behemoth in their sights. The city lord himself was from the Zeng Family. Besides, they had thousands of experts, and even the Fourth Layer Hundred Year realm experts that had been revealed on the surface numbered in the tens. At the same time, the city lord was a half-step Thousand Year King!
Moreover, the city lord’s manor even had a private army thousand men strong. Even the weakest soldier was a Third Layer Hundred Year realm cultivator!
As for the Lu Family? They only had around 10 core members, and as for the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer, there was only Lu Bu.
As for their contracted fighters, they could forget about counting on them. It was still fine if it was concerning other enemies, but this was the Zeng Family! Not to mention helping, it was already a great mercy that they weren’t being stepped on while they were down.
“Even if that is the case, I will not let Buhui marry a useless bastard that can only eat and wait for death, much less as a concubine!” Lu Liang’s expression was heavy, and his tone was decisive.
“Eldest Brother, should we all be buried together with Buhui, then? Besides, it’s a good thing for Buhui to marry into the Zeng Family. If we have the Zeng Family as our backing, who in this city will refuse to give us face?” Zhu Mei said coldly as she looked at Lu Liang with doubt.
“You—”
“Pa!”
Lu Liang was about to speak when a crisp sound rang out across the hall in the next instant!
“You actually hit me?!” Zhu Mei held her cheek with disbelief.
“Slapping you is just a light consequence. Since when did my Lu Family depend on giving away our women to survive!”
Lu Huang seemed to have turned into a completely different person as he stared coldly at Zhu Mei.
Zhu Mei had a look of disbelief on her face. Ever since she’d married, not to mention being hit, she had always been the one scolding Lu Huang! But now, she’d actually been slapped by Lu Huang!
“Were my words wrong?! The Zeng Family is over a hundred times stronger than our Lu Family! As long as Buhui marries into their family, even as a concubine, it would elevate the position of our Lu Family! If we offend them instead, how should we resist the Zeng Family!?”
Zhu Mei was like a shrewish vixen as she rained her punches and kicks on Lu Huang.
“If you can’t understand, go back home to your Zhu Family and think it over slowly.”
Lu Huang allowed Zhu Mei to hit and scold him to her heart’s content, not showing any signs of returning the abuse. He simply scoffed coldly, and informed the guards to bring Zhu Mei away.
“Third Brother…”
At this time, everyone in the Lu Family had complex expressions on their faces. Lu Liang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Lu Qilin and Lu Buhui both exchanged a glance. It was as if this was the first time she knew this Third Uncle.
Lu Huang laughed with self-derision as he spoke, “Big Brother, I know you all always looked down on me. I also know that the two kids, Buhui and Qilin, do not like me. However, even if my Lu Family becomes more despondent, we are not a family that sells our women for our own benefit!”
At this time, the others changed their view of Lu Huang. First the first time, Lu Buhui and Lu Qilin, who they thought only knew how to eat and play, finally looked much more pleasing to their eyes.
“It’s not that there aren’t any solutions to this issue. Second Brother, Jia Shen is currently already a core disciple of the Inferno Sky Sect. Why don’t we get Jia Shen to put in a word to the Zeng Family for us? The Zeng Family probably would not be willing to offend the Inferno Sky Sect,” Lu Liang said as he looked at Lu Baiyu.
“Eldest Brother, we’re just worried that the Zeng Family would not give us face. Although the Inferno Sky Sect is powerful, it isn’t on Tianmu Planet. The government is still rather opposed to external sects,” Lu Baiyu said with a bitter smile.
“Let’s try it first; we don’t have any other options for now.”
Lu Liang sighed.
At this time, Lu Buhui, who had not spoken since the beginning, suddenly opened her mouth. “Father, there’s still another method!
“Enrollment in the University of Tianmu! As long as I can get into the University of Tianmu, even the Zeng Family would not dare to do anything to my Lu Family!”
Lu Buhui looked at the conflicted expressions on everyone’s faces, and suddenly said, “It’s easy to say it, Buhui. How confident are you?”
Lu Liang smiled bitterly. This was the University of Tianmu they were talking about, the top university on Tianmu Planet. Almost every student of it was a proud genius. How could it be so easy to get in?
Lu Buhui paused for a moment, and said, “Just 20 percent confident.”
“20 percent?!”
“Buhui, do you really have 20 percent confidence?”
The entire Lu Family was stunned for a moment, and they suddenly exploded with excitement. Although it was only 20 percent, it was already extremely high!
“That’s right. My cultivation has already broken through to the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer. At the same time, my Sky Note Art has already reached the grand success level!” Lu Buhui’s words were akin to a bomb, causing everyone to feel somewhat giddy.
“Good! Good! There’s still a bit less than a month’s time left until the selection exam. We’ll channel all the Lu Family’s resources to you for use!”
Lu Liang, Lu Baiyu, and the rest’s faces all turned stern and decisive. 20 percent chance odds were large enough for the Lu Family to bet on!
If it didn’t succeed, the entire Lu Family would face the fist of the Zeng Family!
There was only less than a month until the selection exam. As long as they could hang on until then, and Lu Buhui managed to enter the University of Tianmu, the danger that the Lu Family faced would disappear like passing smoke!
