Chapter 180 - 180 173_1

180: Chapter 173_1 180: Chapter 173_1 Chapter 173 After ending the call, Zheng Linglong felt a heady sense of delight. The audacity to challenge Dongfang Yunkong and even rebel against the Eastern World Family was all because Lv Zhong had given her boundless self-confidence. Upon hearing about the Eastern World Family’s current predicament, Zheng Linglong felt exhilarated. And once severed her ties with the Eastern World Family, she started missing Lv Zhong more and more. Her love for him had reached another level in the blink of an eye… “Scoundrel! This bitch dared to rebel against the Eastern World Family. I will never spare her!” At the Eastern World Family residence, upon hearing of Zheng Linglong’s betrayal, Dongfang Yunkong became flooded with discord. He almost had the urge to rush to Yan City and kill Zheng Linglong right away. “Smack…” At that moment, Dongfang Wudi raised his hand abruptly and slapped Dongfang Yunkong in the face. Immediately, blood started flowing. “No matter how low she stoops, she’s still your offspring. If she’s disrespectful, it’s because you failed to discipline her, you have no right to be furious,” Dongfang Wudi angrily roared at Dongfang Yunkong. “Are you such a fool? You can’t see the signs? Why would Dongfang Linglong pick this particular moment to betray us? Can’t you figure it out?” What? Dongfang Yunkong was so dizzy that he couldn’t sort things out in his head. “It seems making you the head of the Dongfang family was my lifetime’s greatest mistake,” Dongfang Wudi looked despondent.

He ignored Dongfang Yunkong, who was literally seeing red, and instead turned to Dongfang Yunping to asked, “What should we do now?” Dongfang Yunping respectfully looked at Dongfang Wudi and said, “First, we should alert the clan to focus all their strength on physical defenses to prevent the enemy from launching another attack. Second, we must first establish whether the person who attacked our family is Lv Zhong, or the force he represents. Afterwards, we should send all our best fighters to Yan City. Whether we choose peace or war will depend on the situation.” “Well done!” Dongfang Wudi nodded in approval and then turned his attention back to Dongfang Yunkong. At this moment, the person who had been dispatched to gather information returned. In a short time, an abundance of information about Yan City was compiled and collected. The gathered people were dispatched again, and Dongfang Wudi and the others began to analyze the collected information. At this point, everyone present was so shocked that they stood there in a daze! As expected, Lv Zhong in Yan City had been attacked. However, without exception, all the assassins sent to kill Lv Zhong had died. Specifically, three were killed by Lv Zhong’s direct punch. The Dongfang Clan didn’t fuss over this much. Given their strength, it was quite easy to kill three ancient martial artists of the first and second Inner Qi levels. However, the sudden death of the three snipers who attacked Lv Zhong shocked Dongfang Wudi and others. These three snipers were more than 70 meters away from Lv Zhong, and yet, they all died after firing a single shot, killed by mysterious insects with an overdose of anesthetic toxin! Insects! Using insects to kill the enemy? The Eastern World Family suddenly had a sense of fantasy! However, the snipers being attacked by insects possessing anesthetic toxins seemed a bit similar to the attack on the Eastern World Family in Tianjing but also somewhat different. Because the Eastern World Family was affected by slow-acting toxic poisons and some had even become idiots. Next, the high-ranking members of the Eastern World Family were shaken to their core. They were horrified to discover that the assassins who attacked Lv Zhong’s loved ones had also instantly turned into idiots, even suddenly dropping dead. This situation was largely similar to what happened to the Eastern World Family. “Hiss…” “Ss…” … The father and his three sons exhaled sharply at the same time. Despite it being the height of the summer season, they all felt a bone-chilling coldness rising from deep within. It was him! Even if it wasn’t him, it was definitely his backers! At this moment, each one of them in the Dongfang Family transformed with shock – they now “confirmed” who had attacked the Eastern World Family! The men of the Dongfang Clan couldn’t believe that Lv Zhong could command insects to battle in Tianjing while being in Yan City. So, “obviously,” Lv Zhong had accomplices with him. They must have been seeking revenge on Lv Zhong’s behalf! In this moment, the people of the Dongfang Family “realized.” A teenager who was 18 years old and had the ability to cripple Dongfang Changhe and seal his Dantian – this was something that the inner Qi seventh level peak state Dongfang Yunxuan couldn’t do. Could this mean that Lv Zhong was already at the Innate Realm? Thinking of this, Dongfang Wudi’s heart twinged. He picked up a mobile phone, dialed Dongfang Wukui’s number, and asked, “Wukui, where are you right now? Is Lv Zhong already at the Innate Realm?” “No kidding, how did you, Brother Wudi, come to know about Lv Zhong? It’s quite strange to me that despite not cultivating, you’re still interested in dealing with matters of the younger generation.” Dongfang Wukui who had just arrived at a notorious mountain in Xichuan Province couldn’t help but be surprised and asked. Hearing that Dongfang Wukui seemed to have brushed off the matter, Dongfang Wudi couldn’t hide his anger and roared, “The matters of the younger generation? At present, the ancient martial artists, who constitute a third of the family power in the Dongfang Clan, have been either turned into idiots or inflicted with chronic lethal poison. What’s more, the Dongfang noble family almost went under due to Dongfang Changhe’s mishap, and you didn’t even bother to report that. You are indeed awesome! Well, how about I turn over your whole family to Lv Zhong…” “What? Impossible!” Dongfang Wukui finally showed a shocked expression and exclaimed in horror, “His counterattack couldn’t have come this fast!” “Couldn’t have come this fast?” Dongfang Wudi sneered and said, “Right now, your grandsons, Dongfang Changfeng and Dongfang Changhong, have fallen into the ranks of those idiots. You can call their nannies and ask…” “How could it be like this…” Dongfang Wukui screamed and hastily disconnected the call. Without a doubt, he had begun contacting his son for an inquiry. After quite a while, Dongfang Wukui called back, “Brother Wudi, please send people to assist Yun Tian and Changhe. They have already been sent by me this morning to go to Yan City and apologize to Lv Zhong. Moreover, I am currently seeking out Master Wu Yunlong for his help, hoping that the power behind Lv Zhong can put aside the old grudges out of respect for Master Wu…” “Master Wu Yunlong? Are you sure you can seek his help?” Dongfang Wudi asked with a trembling voice, full of excitement. “I am 70% to 80% sure!” Dongfang Wukui affirmed. Dongfang Wudi weighed up the possibilities in his heart. After quite a while, he finally said, “Alright then, this time, the four of us old geezers will head over to Yan City to meet Lv Zhong and see if he actually has three heads and six arms.” ***************** Mount Jun in Dongting, the Ao Family, the foremost one among the Eight Great Ancient Martial Arts Families! At this moment, the head of the family, Ao Zhan, was looking at the information collected by his intelligence agents. His eyes were filled with disbelief and his handsome eyebrows nearly shot up. “Boss, what’s happened today? You have called us for no apparent reason and don’t even speak, only staying silent and frowning. If there’s something bothering you, why not speak it out and let us cheer up too?” The one speaking was an exceptionally handsome middle-aged man in a dragon robe. Wearing a smile on his face and moving with a vigorous and energetic stride, he appeared beside Ao Zhan. This man was Ao Yong, the third brother of Ao Zhan. He is extremely powerful, not at all inferior to Dongfang Wukui of the Dongfang Family. Along with Ao Yong, there came an extremely beautiful, coquettish woman. She looked to be in her early thirties and was dressed in a striking sky-blue palace-style long dress, extremely beautiful. Her name was Ao Ying. Although she was a woman, her strength was one or two notches above both Ao Yong and Ao Zhan; she was considered the number one person in the Ao Family. “Actually, I didn’t encounter any mishap!” Having finished, Ao Zhan chuckled and passed over the information in his hand to Ao Yong, saying: “However, things are looking tough for the Dongfang Family. More than two-thirds of their ancient martial artists have been rendered useless. It seems that we’re about to see a good show!” “Since it’s the Dongfang Family’s embarrassing situation, then why did you, Big Brother, just show that pitiful facial expression?” Ao Yong suspiciously took the report from Ao Zhan’s hand, muttering to himself. Ao Zhan gave a wry smile, saying: “It’s you who is pitiful. I was just shocked that the person who messed up the Dongfang Family so terribly is only eighteen years old and, according to Ling’er, he’s also a master in literature who excels at calligraphy and painting…” An eighteen-year-old literary master? And the one who caused the Dongfang Family to end up in such a sorry state? At this moment, both Ao Yong and Ao Ying were full of curiosity and leaned over to take a look. … The Kong Family in Dongshan Province, the Wang Family in Xishan Province, the Zhang Family in Jianglin Province, the Zheng Family in Minnan Province, the Leng Family in Xiangnan Province, the Huang Family in Xiangbei Province… All of them were shocked by the attack on the Dongfang noble family in Tianjing. Therefore, the attention of these families gradually fell onto Yan City in Xiangnan Province. For a time, a gathering storm seemed imminent. ************** Lv Zhong had no idea that his outrage had stirred up so many powers. However, even if he knew, he would definitely have no regrets. As a cultivator, one should let his desires flow freely without any hindrance or impediment. You should absolutely not repress your true feelings! And as a man, if you are continuously oppressed by others, even to the point of your dear ones being targeted for assassination, yet you do nothing, you are indeed too cowardly and weak. Although one should have a generous nature, show kindness, and not take advantage of the weak, you absolutely cannot be merciful towards those who incessantly provoke you, even attempting to assassinate your dear ones. This is Lv Zhong’s way of life! This time, turning two-thirds of people from the Dongfang family into idiots or inducing chronic lethal poison in them, Lv Zhong had absolutely no second thought. As these people’s memories were completely rewritten, even their three souls and seven spirits have been impaired. Even if cultivators were to try and save them, there’s absolutely no chance that they could be restored to normal. As for those with chronic lethal poisoning, they were under the mixed toxins of the [Poison-devouring bug], which except for the [Poison-devouring bug] itself, has no antidote. Therefore, these two-thirds of the ancient martial artists are destined to die! As for the Dongfang family coming over to apologize, Lv Zhong could not care less. Kidding aside, if someone has started assassinating your family members, would you forgive them? Moreover, all these matters were instigated by the Dongfang noble family. Lv Zhong was absolutely in the right, so he was not afraid of the Dongfang noble family stirring up trouble. (To be continued.
