Chapter 286 Leng Family’s Response

"This is what happened to the Leng family."

Huo Qinghuang looked calm, as if the killing just now was just a piece of cake, but there was a hint of coldness in his tone.

"Jiayue, you have to remember that this world is a place where the strong prey on the weak. If the Huo family wants to survive, they must have enough strength and determination. What happened today is just the beginning."

Huo Jiayue was trembling all over, and had not yet recovered from the hellish scene before him.

Her face was as pale as paper and her eyes were full of fear and shock.

Although she had always known that what Huo Qinghuang had experienced was extraordinary, witnessing such a bloody scene with her own eyes still made her feel unbearable.

"Sister, I..."

Huo Jiayue's voice trembled and she could hardly utter complete sentences.

Huo Qinghuang looked at her, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes, but her tone remained firm: “I know this is hard for you to accept, but this is reality.

If the Huo family wants to gain a foothold in the future world, they must face these things. You are a member of the Huo family, and you still have a long way to go. You must learn to be strong. "

Huo Jiayue bit her lip and tried hard to suppress the fear in her heart.

She took a deep breath, and a firm look gradually emerged in her eyes: "Sister, I understand. I will work hard to make the elixir and will never hold the Huo family back."

At this moment, she finally felt the cruelty of this world and understood the importance of strength.

Huo Qinghuang smiled slightly and patted her head gently: "Very good, this is my sister, Huo Qinghuang.

However, it is not enough to just refine the elixir, your own strength is the key. If you have time, let Brother Wu teach you martial arts."

Huo Lingfeng stood aside with a complicated expression, feeling both relieved and a little distressed.

From today on, Huo Jiayue has completely bid farewell to her former innocence and is no longer as carefree as before.

"Okay, that's all for today."

Huo Qinghuang looked at the bodyguards and ordered, "Clean up the body and leave no traces."

It wasn't that she was afraid of the Leng family coming to her house, but she didn't want to deal with the relevant departments.

After all, so many people in the Leng family have died, it's hard to say that they won't do something shady and achieve their goal by calling the police.

"yes!"

The bodyguards acted quickly and began to clean up the bodies on the ground in an orderly manner.

They moved quickly and efficiently, obviously familiar with this kind of thing.

"There's also surveillance! It must be deleted!"

Huo Jiayue's face was still a little pale, but she reacted very quickly and spoke immediately.

Huo Qinghuang looked at her approvingly and said with a smile: "Jiayue is right, but remember to completely destroy the surveillance after deleting it. We have never installed surveillance outside the gate of our Huo family."

"Yes! Our Huo family is upright and honest. We don't need to install surveillance. Did you hear that?"

Huo Jiayue raised his fist and shouted at the bodyguards.

"Got it, Second Miss!"

The bodyguards responded in unison.

Huo Lingfeng looked at the busy figures of the bodyguards and still felt a little uneasy.

He moved closer to Huo Qinghuang and asked in a low voice, "Will the Leng family come to trouble us again?"

Huo Qinghuang turned her head and glanced at him, her tone indifferent: "If the Leng family is smart, they should know when to stop. If they insist on seeking death, I don't mind making them disappear completely."

At the same time, the Leng family of Jizhou.

The top leaders of the Leng family have already learned of Leng Wuji's death, and the entire Leng family has fallen into unprecedented panic.

"The Great Elder, he is actually dead?"

Leng Wuhen, the third elder of the Leng family, looked pale, his eyes full of disbelief.

The Great Elder was a powerful late-stage innate cultivator, but he couldn't even withstand a single move from Huo Qinghuang.

This is ridiculous!

Could it be that the other party is a powerful Jindan master?

"Huo Qinghuang! Who on earth is this woman? She actually has such strength!"

Leng Wufeng, the fourth elder of the Leng family, said with gritted teeth.

Leng Wutan, the patriarch of the Leng family, sat in the first seat with a terribly gloomy expression.

He stood up slowly, his voice low and full of murderous intent: "Huo Qinghuang! This feud is irreconcilable! My Leng family will definitely kill him!"

"But the Great Elder is a late Xiantian expert, and he is no match for her. Who among us can defeat her?"

The words of the Third Elder Leng Wuhen plunged the entire hall into silence.

Everyone had a solemn look on their face.

They knew Leng Wuji's strength very well. Even he was defeated by Huo Qinghuang. It was indeed difficult for anyone in the Leng family to compete with him.

"Master, we can't act rashly. Huo Qinghuang is very powerful. If we act rashly, we may end up repeating the mistakes of the Great Elder."

The fifth elder Leng Wuwang spoke, his expression calm, with a hint of caution in his eyes.

Leng Wutan frowned. Although he was angry, he also understood that what the Fifth Elder said made sense.

"Then in your opinion, what should we do? Are we just going to swallow our anger and let Huo Qinghuang go unpunished?"

The Fifth Elder pondered for a moment and said slowly: "For now, we can only wait for the ancestor to break through the Golden Core Stage before making a decision."

Hearing this, Leng Wutian's eyes suddenly shrank, and then he shook his head: "To be honest, the ancestor has already been a Jindan powerhouse. This retreat is to break through the middle stage of Jindan. It is hard to say when he will be able to come out."

"What?"

"The ancestor has already been a powerful golden elixir master?!"

"Isn't the strongest person in Dragon Country today the only one who has reached the Great Perfection of Innateness? When did the ancestor achieve the breakthrough? Patriarch, this is not a joke!"

Several elders spoke at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief.

As far as they know, in the entire Dragon Kingdom, only the Tianshi Mansion may have a Jindan-stage strongman behind it, but it is just a legend.

Despite this, the Tianshi Mansion has become aloof from the world of Taoism and has taken the lead in Taoism.

As for other Taoist sects or ancient martial arts families, the strongest ones are only at the realm of innate great perfection.

The ancestor of the Leng family had actually already broken through to the Golden Core Stage. Such a secret was actually unknown to them, the elders.

Leng Wutian glanced at everyone, his expression dignified and solemn: "The ancestor has broken through the Jindan stage for decades, but he has always been low-key and has never publicized it.

This matter was originally the top secret of the Leng family, known only to the successive heads of the family and the ancestor himself.

If the Great Elder had not died in battle today and the Leng Family had not suffered unprecedented humiliation, I would not have told you about this."

“So that’s how it is. If the ancestor can break through to the middle stage of the golden elixir, then our Leng family can really dominate the Dragon Country!”

A hint of excitement flashed in the eyes of the third elder Leng Wuhen, as if he had already seen the scene of the Leng family standing out from the crowd.

"But, we don't know when the ancestor will come out of seclusion. How should we deal with Huo Qinghuang? She is so powerful. If she takes the initiative to come to us, our Leng family will be in danger."

Hearing this, the fifth elder Leng Wuwang frowned slightly, and the excitement just now was instantly replaced by worry.

The fourth elder Leng Wufeng also echoed, "That's right. If Huo Qinghuang dares to kill the great elder today, he will dare to kill us at the gate of our Leng family tomorrow! If the ancestor doesn't take action, won't our Leng family have to sit and wait for death?"

Leng Wutian sighed slightly and said, "The ancestor is in seclusion to break through the middle stage of the golden elixir. It is at a critical period and cannot be easily released."

As the patriarch of the Leng family, he was unable to avenge the murder of his clansmen, which naturally made him feel unwilling.

"If you ask me, why don't we just contact the relevant departments in the imperial capital and tell them that Huo Qinghuang killed my Leng family's children, and that murder must be punished by death, and we must investigate to the end!"

At this moment, the Sixth Elder Leng Wuxing, who was sitting in the corner like an invisible man, suddenly spoke, his voice carrying a bone-chilling chill.
