First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

And the family that Lu Ding would eventually pass down would be even more powerful than the current Lu Family!!!

But if one wanted to forge a path forward again in the future, they would have to endure another family tragedy.

Those who knew would say Lu Ding’s surname was Lu.

Those who didn’t would think Lu Ding’s surname was Uchiha.

A clan-annihilating calamity, wrought by his own hand.

He straightened up.

”Do you think that by telling me this secret, I would come to value the Lu Family bloodline?”

Lu Ding said.

Raising his hand to form a hand seal, he pressed it against the major acupoints on his body, inch by inch.With the enlightenment enhanced by Heaven-Man Unity, and the extreme bodily control granted by White Snake Shakes Scales.

Every press of Lu Ding’s hand against his body sent waves of blood mist billowing outward.

Emitting dull thumping sounds.

Until he pressed down on his lower abdomen, watching as he slowly raised his seal-forming hand, leaning his body back, and forcefully yanked out a bloody, mist-like human silhouette. He suddenly clenched his fist, condensing the blood into a pearl in his palm, gleaming with faint radiance.

Lu Ding’s face was somewhat pale.

He flicked the pearl toward Lu Family Patriarch Lu Lin, where it sank deep into the ground.

”I don’t want it.”

”Even without this Lu Family bloodline, I can still reach heights that no one from your Lu Family has ever achieved!”

”This bloodline you treasure like a precious jewel is nothing but a burden to me.”

What if, in the future, an enemy came who could use a clan-annihilating spell that traced bloodlines, like Lu Ding could? Wouldn’t that just be leaving an opening for himself for no reason!?

Lu Ding turned around, looking at all the suppressed and subdued members of the Lu Family: ”From this day forward, I, Lu Ding, have no connection whatsoever with the Lu Family!!!!”

Having said that.

Lu Ding raised his hand to circulate his energy, delivering a palm strike, pushing it forward slowly before his chest, until his arm was fully extended, desperately suppressing the effects of White Snake Shakes Scales and Four Fundamental Evil Aspects·Invulnerable Vajra Body.

”You... what are you trying to do, stop, Lu Ding stop!!!!”

Lu Teng shouted in panic.

Lu Ding suddenly reversed his palm, striking his own chest with devastating force.

BANG!!!

A muffled sound rang out.

Flesh and blood exploded from his back.

Blood flowed freely and wantonly.

A blood-soaked human skeleton withdrew from the flesh and skin, looking utterly ghastly and horrifyingly brutal. Flesh began to regrow on the skeleton.

To avoid having to start over if it recovered, Lu Ding pushed his palm forward again, speaking through his divine consciousness.

”Today, I, Lu Ding, return my flesh to my mother, return my bones to my father. Those who did not raise me, who did not nurture me, have no right to impose their shackles upon me as parents. Past causes, present effects. It is merely a flesh-and-blood vessel, and I return it to you!!!”

He reversed his palm and struck his chest again!!!

BANG!!!!

The blood-soaked skeleton stood firm, unyielding.

Lu Ding’s divine consciousness did not scatter. His three souls and seven spirits manifested, withdrawing from the skeleton.

It hurt. It really hurt. Everywhere on his body hurt. If he could do it over, Lu Ding would absolutely choose a gentler method.

Originally, White Snake Shakes Scales could have blocked the physical pain. But it was also because Lu Ding’s temper flared up—when emotions run high, the brain stops working properly. That’s normal. He forgot that since his body was gone, where would White Snake Shakes Scales be to avoid the pain!?

It was like having money to buy anything.

Yet holding billions in cash while stranded alone in an endless desert—what the hell use was that?

But for the sake of pride, since he’d already gone this far, he’d just bear with it, grit his teeth and tough it out. It wasn’t like he could say his previous words were just hot air just because it hurt too much, right?

Fortunately, Lu Ding acted quickly. In a few swift moves, he completely detached from the flesh and bones, keeping his consciousness outside. It didn’t hurt as much then.

”AHHHHHHH!!!!!”

Witnessing this scene, Lu Teng collapsed in despair, screaming.

Luo Qingshi, who had already fainted, was jolted awake by that shout.

But what she saw was Lu Ding’s current horrific state, along with the flesh and blood he had shed. She stood frozen in place.

”My son, my son!!!!!”

”It’s mother who failed you, it’s mother who failed you, it’s all mother’s fault, mother was wrong, mother was wrong............”

Lu Ding staggered in the air, but after his soul manifested, his eyes were exceptionally cold.

”If your current attitude had been shown before, I might have had a sliver of softness in my heart. But now that the deed is done, I don’t want the two of you to ever claim the status of my parents again.”

”I have already returned my bones to my father and my flesh to my mother. From this day forward, I, Lu Ding, am born of heaven and nurtured by earth—heaven is my father, earth is my mother.”

”If I ever hear anyone claim to be my parents or my clansmen again, then don’t blame me for killing!!!”

”For wiping out the entire clan!!!!”

As for his name, so what?

The world is vast. Are only people surnamed Lu allowed to use the surname Lu? Others aren’t permitted?

What kind of bullshit reasoning was that?

The name Lu Ding—he had used it twice across his past and present lives. If anyone dared to say he couldn’t use it, there was a simple solution.

If someone angered Lu Ding.

If anyone said that since he shared the surname Lu, Lu Ding couldn’t use the name Lu Ding, then he would simply kill that person, wipe out their entire clan from top to bottom. Problem solved, wasn’t it?

A very simple question, no need to agonize over it. If you can’t solve the problem from yourself, then solve the person who raised the problem.

Lu Ding’s words fell.

Lu Teng and Luo Qingshi collapsed limply on the spot.

They had thought that Lu Ding’s hatred toward the Lu Family, toward them, was just childish petulance.

Just like how many ordinary parents, upon hearing that their child has depression, their first reaction isn’t concern, isn’t self-reflection, isn’t asking where they went wrong.

Instead, it’s interrogation, blame, and dismissal.

’Your father and I scrimped and saved, denied ourselves clothes and food, all to pay for your schooling, to give you a good life. We worked so hard. Why didn’t we get depressed? How dare you be depressed?’

’I think you’re just faking it, you just don’t want to study~’

’Back in our day, we couldn’t even eat our fill. Every day we trekked over mountains and rivers to school, leaving before dawn. By the time we arrived, not a dry thread was on us. We endured such bitter days, we got through them, and we didn’t get depressed. And yet you have the nerve to be depressed?’

But little did they think, when the kid actually jumped off the building, they cried their hearts out.

Little did they think, when the kid cosplayed as a sunshine doll swinging in the room, they cried their hearts out.

Regret?

What the hell use was regret!?

If regret actually worked, then what of Lu Ding’s decade-plus of hardship and suffering!?

He had already made it through. And then, well, look at that—his parents appeared, his clansmen appeared.

Where the hell were they all this time?

Lu Ding couldn’t be bothered to argue with them. Since they were his nominal parents and it was a fact that they gave birth to him, then it was simple—return it to them, and everyone’s accounts are settled.

If conflicts arose again in the future, then let each rely on their own abilities.

No one was going to use morality to bind Lu Ding!!!

The whole point was being unyielding!!!

Unfazed by life or death, refusing to submit and ready to fight!!

As Lu Ding shouted those words—born of heaven and nurtured by earth, heaven is my father, earth is my mother—suddenly, the heavens burst forth with extraordinary radiance, and golden lotuses surged from the earth.

Countless obscure, wondrous sounds resonated between heaven and earth.

On the Golden Finger, the words of Formlessness that could unlock Heaven-Man Unity began to change.

From the conceptual Formlessness, it became the true Heaven-Man Unity.

Even the very gaze of the words transformed into rainbow colors, brilliantly interwoven.
