Chapter 1386: Chapter 1379: The Tower Is About to Collapse

”Enough.”

Upon hearing the duet of Lu Hongda and Lu Gaoyang, Lu Bowen furiously said: ”All of you shut up at once! The Old Sir just passed, and you’re determined to tear the Lu Family apart, is that it? Eldest brother, Lu Gaoyang, can you two say with conscience that you acted like elders just now? Did you? If you want the Old Sir to rest in peace, then shut up, and this matter ends here. No one is allowed to bring it up again, or don’t blame me for being unforgiving.”

”Hmph!”

Lu Hongda gave a heavy cold snort upon hearing Lu Bowen’s words, a chill flashed in his eyes to the extreme, but he said nothing.

Lu Bowen took a deep breath and said to Lu Haoyue: ”Haoyue, in the name of the Head of the Lu Family, summon all members of the Lu Family. Also, notify the elder council to prepare for the Old Sir’s burial. From now on, the Lu Family enters full lockdown; no one is allowed to enter or exit at will. Anyone violating the order will be executed.”

At the end, Lu Bowen’s tone was filled with cold killing intent.

”Yes, Father, I will make the arrangements.”

Lu Haoyue nodded, stood up, and turned to walk outside without hesitation.

”Eldest brother, I hope you prioritize the bigger picture, or don’t blame the Lu Family law for being ruthless.”

Lu Bowen’s gaze fell on Lu Hongda.

”That is none of your concern. I, Lu Hongda, do not betray my own.”

Lu Hongda gave a heavy cold snort.

With each command Lu Bowen issued, all the solitary geese within the Lu Family began gathering, and from this moment, the Lu Family was sealed off completely. The news of the Old Sir Lu’s death spread like a storm to every corner of China.

This news shocked countless people. The Old Sir Lu, who once suppressed all family houses in Beijing with one hand, was dead, and he died so quietly.

Alongside the shock of the news, ambition began to gleam in the eyes of the powerful, as an uncontrollable desire emerged from deep within. The Old Sir Lu was the pillar of the Lu Family; now that it’s gone, the Lu Family is like a rootless waterweed, vulnerable and easy to conquer. Doesn’t this mean the time to move into Jiangnan has arrived?

Even if the major families take the largest share, drinking some soup wouldn’t be bad. Immediately, as the news of the Old Sir Lu’s death spread, all of China was embroiled in turmoil, everyone knowing an unprecedented chaos was about to begin.

Beijing, Yang Family.

An elderly man, clothed in a white Tang suit with an immortal-like appearance, stood in the pavilion at the center of an artificial lake, hands behind his back. The autumn wind blowing made him seem almost like a celestial being, yet his eyes exuded a chilling coldness.

He was the last ancestor of the Yang Family, Yang Fengxing, brother of Yang Shenxing who died at the hands of the Old Sir Lu.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Suddenly, hurried footsteps approached from outside, and a middle-aged man rushed towards him. If one looked closely now, they could vaguely see a resemblance between this man and Yang Tiansi. He was Yang Tiansi’s father, Yang Anlong.

”Old Ancestor.”

As Yang Anlong approached Yang Fengxing, he instinctively slowed his steps, stopped several meters away, and respectfully bowed.

”What is it?”

Yang Fengxing replied without turning his head, his tone calm and devoid of any earthly aura.

”Old Ancestor, Tianci just sent back news from Jiangnan that Lu Tiankuang is dead. Moreover, the Lu Family has summoned all members and hung white cloth, which basically confirms Lu Tiankuang’s death.”

Yang Anlong’s face showed an uncontrollable joy. Over twenty years ago, the Yang Family was nearly reduced to a secondary clan, losing an ancestor, waiting for the chance to flatten the Lu Family. That chance had finally come; once the Lu Family is defeated, swallowing their forces would allow the Yang Family to ascend to a top-tier family status.

”What did you say, Lu Tiankuang is really dead? Are you sure?” Yang Fengxing showed no sign of joy but asked again.

”It’s definitely confirmed that Lu Tiankuang is dead because Tianci saw the Sword Qi soaring into the sky, which definitely indicates it’s the Void Sword Qi cultivated by Ancestor Yang Shenxing. Didn’t you say before that if Sword Qi erupts again, Lu Tiankuang would undoubtedly die? I believe he is indeed dead now. Old Ancestor, our chance for revenge has come.” Yang Anlong said with a hint of killing intent.

”Yes, the opportunity for revenge has finally come.”

Upon hearing the Sword Qi eruption, Yang Fengxing was finally moved, his face showing an undeniable trace of killing intent. Years ago, Lu Tiankuang fought his way into Beijing, even killed his brother, and now, after more than twenty years, the opportunity had finally arrived.

”Anlong, tell Tianci not to act rashly, investigate thoroughly whether Lu Tiankuang is really dead. We must be extremely careful this time, and destroy the Lu Family in one fell swoop. No errors are allowed, and whoever dares intervene will be killed without mercy.” Yang Fengxing said solemnly.

”Yes, Old Ancestor, I will make the arrangements.”

Yang Anlong nodded.

”Then go make the arrangements!”

Yang Fengxing waved his hand to signal Yang Anlong’s departure, then raised his head to the sky, muttering softly: ”Brother, the plan you left behind is finally successful. Lu Tiankuang is dead at last, don’t worry. You will not have died in vain; I will uproot the Lu Family, even if Ji Xingyun intervenes, he cannot save them. Years ago, we joined forces with the Tang, Jiang, and Long Families to kill Lu Tianzhan to extinguish the Lu Family. I have waited for more than twenty years, nearly dying myself, but can finally take revenge. Rest assured, once I kill Lu Tiankuang, I will offer his and Lu Tianzhan’s son’s heads to honor your spirit.”

Yang Fengxing murmured softly, Sword Intent bursting from him, instantly shattering the pavilion around him into dust, dispersing with the wind.

The death of the Old Sir Lu was destined to shock all of China. Some rejoiced, while others mourned.
