"Brother Straight..."
Lu Wuque, who had recovered, walked to Lu Zhengzhi's side, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Lu Wuque raised his eyes and looked at Lu Wuque without saying anything. Instead, he threw two storage bags to Lu Wuque.
"This is?"
"Scarface and the monk's storage bags."
"There is a Xuan-level technique, five Huang-level high-grade spiritual weapons, and dozens of unknown comprehensions."
Lu Zhengzhi paused for a moment and said, "Just consider it as compensation to the villagers of Xiaoshui Village and Xiaofang."
Lu Wuque was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly waved his hands, "No, no, no, Brother Zhi, you misunderstood, it was Xiaofang who asked me to come to you!"
"She asked me to come to you and apologize to you on her behalf."
"She said she was too angry just now and said the wrong thing."
"Now that I've regained my sanity, I want to tell you that she's come to her senses. She shouldn't blame you, but instead wants to thank you."
"If you hadn't risked your life to save me, not only would I have died, but Xiaoshui Village would have been massacred."
Lu Wuque finished speaking in one breath, as if he was afraid that Lu Zhengzhi would misunderstand.
His injuries were very serious. Even with the help of the Life-Resilience Pill and the Black Tortoise Soul-Resilience Pill to regulate his breathing, he could only barely walk. Now, after speaking such a long paragraph, he was even slightly out of breath.
Lu Zhengzhi turned his head and looked directly into Lu Wuque's eyes, which made him a little nervous. He smiled and said, "Wuque, you really can't lie."
Lu Wuque was stunned when he heard this and was about to explain, but Lu Zhengzhi waved his hand to stop him.
"It's normal for that little girl to hate me. If those two wanted to kill me, they wouldn't have followed the trail to Xiaoshui Village."
"She is smart, straightforward, has good character, and is good-looking. You are right to marry her."
"Take the things in these two storage bags. When you get married, you'll need money a lot."
Lu Wuque took the storage bag blankly, then left Lu Zhengzhi blankly and returned to Xiaofang.
So, did Brother Zhi take Xiaofang’s words to heart?
Lu Wuque met Xiaofang's eyes.
He was stunned.
Worry, anxiety, and... hatred.
"Xiaofang——"
Lu Wuque felt his throat was a little dry.
But Xiaofang suddenly rushed up and hugged him, "Wuque, I'm so scared!"
"I lost my mother when I was young, and my father is dead now. You are all I have!"
Hearing this, Lu Wuque also felt sad, and he unconsciously hugged Xiaofang with both hands, "It's okay, you still have me!"
"Xiaofang! Let's get married!"
The girl in his arms stiffened for a moment, but then relaxed, a muffled, unclear word uttered from her chest, "Okay."
Lu Wuque felt his heart suddenly filled with honey.
But he didn't notice the terrifying resentment in the eyes of the person in his arms.
——
A powerful spiritual pressure suddenly descended upon Xiaoshui Village, and the most terrifying scene was at the village west square where Lu Zhengzhi was.
The bamboo forest beside the square was suppressed by the spiritual power and bowed its head. The bamboo leaves trembled in the trembling of the trunk, like people who were terrified.
Lu Zhengzhi activated his spiritual power, slowly stood up, and bowed to the person who landed on the ground, "Greetings to the President of the Supervisory Committee."
Lu Xingshi's gaze carried a menace that could penetrate people's hearts.
"Where are the evil cultivators?"
Lu Zhengzhi turned aside, revealing two dead bodies behind him.
Among them, the monk Bujie's heart had been cut open.
At the heart, there is a ball of blood that is twisting and deforming.
Lu Zhengzhi's spiritual power has been suppressing the other party to prevent it from escaping.
Lu Xingshi frowned, "Blood Spirit Years."
He looked at Lu Zhengzhi, the intimidation in his eyes finally dissipated a little, replaced by surprise, "How could you kill two evil cultivators of the sixth level of Qi training in a row? One of them was even a traitor from the Hanging Temple and had the Blood Spirit implanted in him?"
Lu Zhengzhi's expression remained unchanged. "It was just luck."
Lu Xingshi looked Lu Zhengzhi up and down. "It seems that Big Brother kicked you out of the house in order to protect your talent?"
"Good nephew?"
Lu Zhengzhi's originally serious expression instantly melted away, revealing a flattering smile, "How could that be, Third Uncle!"
"I was kicked out of the house by the old man, so I started to work hard and become independent."
"Otherwise, if others knew that you, Third Uncle, had a nephew as useless as a rock, wouldn't that tarnish your reputation?"
Lu Xingshi was stunned. He didn't expect that Lu Zhengzhi, who had a serious face just now, would be so ruthless as to try to gain advantage by taking advantage of any relationship he saw.
Lu Xingshi is Lu Zhengzhi's grandfather and Lu Chaosheng's third cousin.
Therefore, there is absolutely no problem for Lu Zhengzhi to call Lu Xingshi "Third Uncle".
However, the relationship between the two families is not close, and they only get together during major festivals or ceremonies of the second house.
Lu Zhengzhi has always been regarded as a shameful and useless grandson by Lu Chaosheng. How could he introduce this shame to relatives from other branches during an important gathering?
Lu Zhengzhi was even prepared for Lu Xingshi not to recognize him, and he had thought of a rhetoric for his sudden increase in cultivation and the assassination attempt.
But Lu Xingshi still remembered himself.
Now that you've called me "good nephew", you can't show that deadpan expression of the Supervisory Commission to me again, right?
Lu Zhengzhi called "Third Uncle" so sweetly, as if he was raised by Lu Xingshi since he was a child and was not afraid of strangers.
Lu Xingshi was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "You're quite clever, kid."
"However, when it comes to the safety of the family, necessary measures must be taken."
Lu Xingshi's expression turned cold again, and the pressure of the Foundation Establishment Master came crashing down.
Lu Zhengzhi was unable to move and could only watch Lu Xingshi's spirit fetus slowly walk towards him.
It was a white lion.
When Lu Xingshi was young, he watched the Moon Lion on Yuehan Mountain for ten years. Eventually, he absorbed a bit of the Moon Lion's spirit and gave birth to his own spirit fetus - the Frost White Lion.
This spiritual fetus is considered top-grade among the Xuan-level ones. It once helped Lu Xingshi gain fame and earned him the title of Lu Family White Lion.
Lu Zhengzhi's hair stood on end.
If the white lion gets angry with him and bites him, his life will be over.
But the white lion was well-behaved. After sniffing Lu Zhengzhi and confirming that there was no evil aura in his origin, he snorted in disdain and turned away.
Lu Xingshi's cold expression also disappeared, and he looked at Lu Zhengzhi with amusement, "I'm sorry, my dear nephew, this concerns the safety of our family, so Grandpa has no choice but to do this."
It was clearly an apology, but Lu Zhengzhi only felt it was playful.
"It's okay, Grandpa!"
The third uncle is a thing of the past. Now, Lu Xingshi is his best grandfather with the best fighting power in Liuhe County!
Lu Xingshi raised an eyebrow, but didn't refute his slip of the tongue, "Grandpa." Instead, his expression became serious again, "Tell me, what's going on with these two people?"
Lu Zhengzhi also looked serious and said, "These two are accomplices of the eldest branch of the family!"
boom!
The foundation-building spiritual pressure suddenly exploded.
Lu Xingshi's hair and beard moved without a breeze. He narrowed his eyes, looking like a majestic lion. "Go on!"
