Their sharp exchanges attracted many onlookers.
Upon hearing Lu Ye announce his name, the crowd erupted in noise.
"My God, it's actually Lu Ye, the patriarch of the Lu family! Who is this kid? How dare he offend the cold-faced Lu Ye?"
A burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes said in surprise.
"What kind of cold-faced person is he? What's his background? Is he that powerful?"
"He's incredibly powerful, extremely powerful. His record is bloody. Legend has it that he killed countless people, and almost everyone who offended him is dead."
"How come I've never heard of it?"
"Sigh, not many people remember the title of Lu Ye, the cold-faced man. After he established the Lu family, he has been in seclusion. It is said that he was trying to break through to the Golden Core stage. I don't know if he succeeded or not, but even if he didn't succeed, he should be at least half a step into the Golden Core stage."
"Wow, that's powerful. Anyone who fights him is doomed."
"I think it's pretty much true. This guy is really bold to offend the cold-faced Lu Ye. It's a pity he's in the prime of his life."
"You're not bragging, are you? How do you know about Lu Ye?"
"Hmph, I came from Canglan City. Everyone in Canglan City knows about the Lu family's deeds. You're so ignorant."
When Lu Ye saw that some of them actually retreated in fear as soon as Qin Feng spoke, he was quite displeased. However, when he heard someone talking about his glorious deeds, his expression improved.
He exclaimed, "I never expected that someone in this remote place would still remember my nickname, Lu Ye the Cold-Faced Man. It's truly remarkable."
He turned to Qin Feng and said, "You heard what they said, right? Everyone who offended me is dead. You should come and die obediently, and maybe I'll spare your relatives and friends if I'm in a good mood."
His tone showed that he didn't take Qin Feng seriously at all, as if Qin Feng was someone he could easily manipulate.
According to the information from the Lu family members who had fled back, Lu Ye learned that Qin Feng was just a young man in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. How could he compare to him, a half-step Golden Core cultivator? Therefore, he was very confident and arrogant.
Hearing the surrounding whispers, Qin Feng's mother, Xia Yaqin, became worried again. "A half-step Golden Core cultivator! Can Qin Feng withstand that?"
"Xiao Feng," she called out involuntarily.
Qin Yi, Leng Yuexi, and the others were also very worried. That was the Golden Core Realm, even if it was only half a step. Anyone who was even remotely related to the Golden Core Realm was not someone to be trifled with.
"Brother Feng, if things can't be done, just leave on your own. Remember to avenge us later," Leng Yuexi couldn't help but say.
Leng Jiang was speechless. No wonder they say that daughters grow up and leave home.
Qin Feng's reaction was calm, without panic or impatience. He gave his family a reassuring look, then coldly addressed Lu Ye:
"Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want to come together?"
It's still the same sentence.
One sentence is worth ten thousand.
A member of the Lu family swallowed hard.
The man felt fear, an inexplicable fear. This familiar formula, this familiar routine, how could it be so similar to last time? But this time, a half-step Golden Core Ancestor was present, so why did he still have this strong sense of foreboding?
He shook his head, dismissing the thought. It must be an illusion, no, it must be an illusion. The aftereffects of last time were too severe; it must be like this.
He kept reassuring himself and trying to have faith in Old Master Lu.
It seems he was one of the people who participated in the battle of Ping'an Village last time. Qin Feng left a deep shadow on him. Qin Feng's three words that time were enough to drive back so many invaders. How could he not be terrified?
Before the cold-faced Lu Ye could even speak, the Lu family members around him couldn't help but chime in.
"What a reckless brat! He's not even fully grown yet and he's already so arrogant. Our ancestor has been lenient with us, and you're not even grateful."
“Ancestor, since he doesn’t appreciate it, don’t waste your breath talking to him.”
Lu Ye was also somewhat puzzled. He said that giving Qin Feng a chance to let go of his relatives and friends was just a test. How could he, a cold-faced man, be so soft-hearted?
To his surprise, Qin Feng was so calm and collected. They came with great force, but he didn't seem to care and remained indifferent. After all, Lu Ye was only a half-step Golden Core cultivator, so what kind of trump card did Qin Feng have?
Then he shook his head and sighed, "I'm really getting old. The older I get, the less daring I become. When I was young, I was never afraid of this or that. He's just a young kid in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Why should I be so cautious? I'm really getting old."
"Let me see what gives you the audacity to disregard my good intentions like this. You lot, get him!"
As they spoke, all six of them except Lu Ye joined the battle, and five of them flew towards Qin Feng.
In order to avoid endangering his family, Qin Feng took the initiative to fly up and engage in battle.
The burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes who had given the earlier comments shook his head and sighed:
"This kid should be someone important, but unfortunately he's not very bright. He should have left on his own. He could have come back for revenge later. Instead, he was so stupid as to take the initiative to fight. What a pity."
After saying that, he walked outside, as if he had foreseen the outcome and knew what would happen next without even looking.
Other onlookers also thought it made sense, and some of them followed the burly man away.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Ye glared at him and said coldly, "Go? Where do you think you can go? With me here, you think you can leave? Humph."
The burly man felt a chill run down his spine, cold sweat beading on his back. He had almost offended the cold-faced man, and might not see the sun rise tomorrow.
After waiting for a while, he realized that Lu Ye was no longer paying attention to him, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking out.
But he hadn't walked far when he heard a gasp.
"hiss."
"ah!"
"this!"
