“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Lu Ji said, word by word. “Our father-son relationship was completely severed when my mother was tormented by you and died in despair.”
He was originally Lu Chengnan's illegitimate son, a dispensable figure. After his mother passed away, he resolutely left the Juming Sect.
Even if he suffers a terrible fate on the mainland, he never wants to return to that filthy place.
So much time has passed, and when I suddenly saw him again, his face was still as ugly and disgusting as ever!
"You wretch! Since you say so, I will kill you today, you little beast!" Lu Chengnan roared.
His face was contorted with rage, and the power of the seventh level of the Supreme Realm was revealed.
The person he used to beat and scolded dared to defy him and even challenge his authority as a father. How could he not be furious!
The commotion attracted the attention of the Illusionary Concealment Sect disciples, who assumed someone was causing trouble and immediately appeared.
Upon seeing Lu Ji standing there, he bowed and asked, "Elder Lu, what has happened?"
The disciples warily turned their attention to Lu Chengnan, whose arrival seemed ill-intentioned.
"I'll handle those unrelated people. You can continue your patrol." Lu Ji waved to his disciples.
"Yes, Elder Lu." The disciples turned and left.
“You are an elder of the Illusionary Concealment Sect!” Lu Chengnan narrowed his eyes.
This shameful thing, he thought he had died outside long ago, but he never expected that he would not only survive, but also become an elder of the Illusionary Concealment Sect.
The Illusionary Concealment Sect possesses resources from top-tier forces; what incredible luck did this wretch have?
However, he is an elder of the Illusionary Concealment Sect. If he had help from within, it would be much easier for him to obtain those resources.
Even if you can't get it all, you can still take a portion without anyone noticing.
Thinking of this, Lu Chengnan's attitude immediately changed drastically. "You child, what nonsense are you talking about? I am your father, we are all family, how can we be unrelated people?"
Lu Ji gave a sarcastic smile. "Don't even think about it! The thought of you saying the word 'father' makes me want to vomit. You keep talking about 'father,' do you even deserve it!"
“I know your character, and I know what you’re thinking right now. Let me tell you, your plans are doomed to fail.”
"You little beast, if I hadn't raised you with such difficulty, you wouldn't be standing here behaving like this. If I had known you were siding with outsiders, I would have killed you first."
Hearing that Lu Ji had refused him righteously and even mocked him before he could even speak, Lu Chengnan's temper flared up instantly.
"So what if you are now an elder of the Illusionary Concealment Sect? I will still teach you a lesson! I am being very polite to you, which is giving you face."
"Is it so great to sit in the position of elder of the Illusionary Hidden Sect? The Illusionary Hidden Sect is now opposed by many forces on the continent and is already in a precarious situation, its future hanging by a thread."
"You won't be an elder for long. If you know what's good for you, do as I say. Then I might take you in and make sure you don't end up on the streets."
Lu Ji did not answer, his eyes growing even sharper. "If it weren't for the sect leader, I wouldn't be where I am today. You think you can make me betray the Illusionary Hidden Sect? Keep dreaming!"
He had already gathered power in his hands, clearly not wanting to waste any more words with him; he had long wanted to teach this hypocritical beast a lesson.
Now that his strength has broken through to the ninth level of the extraordinary realm, although there is still a gap between him and this old man, he wants to have a match with him.
He also wanted to rebel and prove that he was no longer the puppet he used to be, living under his control and being beaten and scolded at will.
"I see you've not only grown wings, but you've also become bolder! Fine! Since you won't listen to me, there's no use keeping you around. Today I'm going to clean house!"
Lu Chengnan's expression instantly turned terrifying, and he launched a swift attack on Lu Ji.
Lu Ji went straight to meet him.
In less than three rounds, Lu Ji was injured, showing that there was still a significant difference in strength between the two.
However, he did not stop and continued to attack, like a fearless, out-of-control beast.
Looking at the scum in front of him, Lu Ji felt an overwhelming hatred welling up inside him. He wanted to seek justice for his deceased mother.
His reckless and aggressive fighting style eventually led to Lu Chengnan being injured.
Looking at the bloody wound on his arm, Lu Chengnan's face was so gloomy it could drip water.
The wolf cub he raised himself ended up getting hurt by the wolf cub, which was the very thing he despised the most. This was a blatant humiliation for him and a challenge to his authority.
"You little beast, you're asking for death!" Lu Chengnan gathered all his strength in his hand, intending to kill Lu Ji with one blow.
However, the attack vanished like smoke before it even reached Lu Ji.
"Who goes there!" Lu Chengnan looked around.
Ruan Xiyan walked up from behind Lu Ji and said, "You dare to touch my people on my turf? You must have a death wish."
Lu Ji saw Ruan Xiyan and said respectfully, "Greetings, Sect Master."
Ruan Xiyan glanced at his injuries. "Are you alright?"
Lu Ji shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
“You are the sect leader of the Illusionary Concealment Sect.” Lu Chengnan looked at Ruan Xiyan who had appeared.
"You are Lu Chengnan from the Giant Roaring Sect." Ruan Xiyan recognized the man's identity at a glance. She had already learned about all the people who came to participate in the Ascension Grand Gathering in advance.
Lu Ji shares the same surname as him, and considering the conflict between the two just now, their relationship is self-evident.
“It’s me.” Lu Chengnan stood there with his hands behind his back. “I never knew the sect leader of the Illusionary Concealment Sect was such a busybody.”
“This little beast is my son. This is my family matter. Even if I beat him to death today, it is my right and no one else has the right to interfere. Does Sect Leader Ruan mean to meddle in other people’s family affairs?”
“I have no interest in your family affairs, but Lu Ji is a member of our Illusionary Hidden Sect. It’s unacceptable to mess with someone from the Illusionary Hidden Sect on my turf.” Ruan Xiyan’s attitude was firm.
"Don't think that just because your Illusionary Hidden Sect wiped out a few small forces you're invincible. Today I'm going to kill this little beast." Lu Chengnan raised his hand to attack Ruan Xiyan.
He wanted to see just how capable the sect leader of the Illusionary Concealment Sect was, daring to make such a big splash on the continent.
It's impossible not to feel envious and jealous of a power that hasn't been established for long.
Ruan Xiyan's lips curled into a mocking smile. "Overestimating yourself."
Without moving an inch, she casually slapped Lu Chengnan away.
When Lu Chengnan fell, his two legs landed perfectly on their knees before them.
