Chapter 1458: Chapter 1451: When Rage Peaks, Only Killing Intent Remains

”What.”

”How is this possible, Lu Hongda turned out to be the murderer of Tianzhan, how is this possible.”

”I remember now. No wonder not long after Tianzhan died, a group of people inexplicably disappeared from the Lu Family. Could it be that this group was sent by Lu Hongda to find Lu Tianxing, and were eventually silenced by him?”

”Impossible! Maybe Yang Tiansi knew he was dying, so he deliberately wanted to drag a few down with him. Perhaps he hoped to use this matter to turn Lu Tianxing against our Lu Family. His words can’t be trusted.”

Upon hearing Yang Tiansi’s words, all the Lu Family members were shocked and began to discuss among themselves, some agreeing, some objecting.

Lu Bowen, Dai Shuwen, Lu Haoyue, and others had a look of disbelief on their faces. Their eyes filled with bewilderment as they looked at Lu Hongda, who stood there with a conflicted expression. They couldn’t quite believe it either. After all, Lu Hongda and Lu Tianzhan got along relatively well back then. There should have been no reason for Lu Hongda to plot against Lu Tianzhan. According to Lu Hongda himself, his ambition to seize the position of Head of the Lu Family began only after Lu Tianzhan’s death when Old Sir Lu handed the position to Lu Haoyue. If his intentions started from then, it would mean Lu Hongda was exceptionally malicious—wanting not only to kill his brother but also his sister-in-law and nephew.

When Old Sir Lu heard Yang Tiansi’s words, his body suddenly trembled, and a deep look of pain appeared on his face. His body seemed to hunch over as if he’d aged several years in just one instant, no longer having the vigor from when he killed the three monks and nuns.

Old Sir Lu looked at Lu Hongda with a complex expression. He was not like the others in the Lu Family, completely unaware. Over the years, he hadn’t been able to discover who was responsible for Lu Tianzhan’s death, but he did find out that the person who lured Lu Tianzhan out of Beijing must have been someone from the Lu Family. Otherwise, Lu Tianzhan wouldn’t have left Beijing at such a critical moment. He just couldn’t find out who that person was.

Old Sir Lu had once suspected many people in his heart, but he had never suspected Lu Hongda. Unfortunately, the very person he hadn’t suspected turned out to be the culprit who caused his son’s death.

”No, it’s fake. Yang Tiansi, you’re lying. You’re talking nonsense. How could big brother do such a thing? You must not believe his nonsense.”

Suddenly, a sharp voice rang out in the hall. Lu Gaoyang looked at Yang Tiansi with a face full of resentment and said loudly, with a hint of panic in his voice, ”Lu Tianxing, no, nephew Tianxing, you must not believe what Yang Tiansi says. He’s slandering big brother. Big brother and Tianzhan were like brothers, everyone knows that. How could big brother do such a thing? He’s talking nonsense, he...

If Lu Tianxing found out that Lu Hongda was the culprit behind Lu Tianzhan’s death, Lu Hongda would be doomed, and once Lu Hongda died, he too would be unlikely to escape death. He could not allow this to happen at any cost.

”Slap!”

The crisp sound of a slap echoed, cutting off Lu Hongda’s words as Lu Tianxing raised his hand with a light gesture, sending him flying with a slap.

Slowly retracting his True Qi, Lu Tianxing’s gaze landed on Yang Tiansi, his tone carrying a hint of coldness, ”Why should I believe what you say? What evidence do you have to prove it’s true?”

”I have evidence, I have evidence. When I was persuading Lu Hongda to cooperate with me, I secretly recorded our conversation. Lu Hongda himself has admitted this. If you don’t believe me, you can take out the phone from my pocket now. The recording is stored on that phone.”

At this moment, Yang Tiansi had no reservations left. He spilled everything like a bamboo tube pouring beans, explaining everything clearly. As for the recording, it was made during a meal with Lu Hongda to hold something over him, ensuring Lu Hongda would comply with their plans and wouldn’t dare to oppose their arrangements.

”Old Master Zhou, please retrieve the phone from Yang Tiansi’s pocket,” Lu Tianxing said, his eyes sweeping over the surroundings and settling on Old Master Zhou, his tone calm.

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Old Master Zhou couldn’t help but shiver, casting a fearful glance at Lu Tianxing. Although he didn’t detect much emotion in Lu Tianxing’s tone, that lack of fluctuation was the most terrifying, as he had reached the point of extreme anger—beyond fury, only the intent to kill remained.

Without any hesitation, Old Master Zhou reached into Yang Tiansi’s pocket and pulled out a smartphone, which he then handed to Lu Tianxing.

Lu Tianxing received the phone without hesitation and lit up the screen, ”Password?”

”The password is 7451...”

Without any hesitation, Yang Tiansi revealed the password, ”The first one is the recording.”

Lu Tianxing gave Yang Tiansi a glance, his expression calm as he entered the password. He found the recording in the saved files and, without hesitation, played the recording.

”Lu Hongda, you have no other choice. If you don’t want Lu Tianxing to come after you for revenge, your only option is to cooperate with us and help us eliminate the Lu Family.”

”Young Master Yang, what do you mean by this? I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

As soon as it started playing, the conversation between Yang Tiansi and Lu Hongda clearly streamed into everyone’s ears. The voices were unmistakably theirs, at least to those who had interacted with Lu Hongda and Yang Tiansi. They immediately recognized the voices as belonging to the two of them.

”Don’t understand what I’m saying? Then do you know how Lu Tianzhan died? Who wrote that letter to Lu Tianzhan and told us about his whereabouts? I think you know this better than I do.”

”...”

”Lu Hongda, are you really willing? Don’t forget, the position of Head of the Lu Family originally belonged to you. Lu Tiankuang and Lu Tianzhan merely seized your father’s position. Are you really willing to give up the position of Head of the Lu Family like this? I assure you, as long as you cooperate with me, you will be the Head of the Lu Family in the future...”

”Alright, I agree to cooperate with you.”

Segments of recordings sounded from the phone, it was the scene of Yang Tiansi persuading Lu Hongda to betray the Lu Family that night.

This conversation caused a massive uproar within the Lu Family. They never imagined that Lu Hongda was indeed the murderer who killed Lu Tianzhan. If Lu Tianzhan hadn’t died, the Lu Family wouldn’t have fallen to this state; the horror of the demonic genius was not merely a matter of words.

”Click!”

Suddenly, accompanied by the sound of a click, a strong burnt smell permeated the air. The phone in Lu Tianxing’s hand suddenly shattered, and a firelight spread from his hand, yet Lu Tianxing didn’t seem to feel anything.

”Lu Tianxing.”

”Tianxing.”

Bai Zhiqing and Mu Qingxue voiced their concern. They understood Lu Tianxing too well; although he hadn’t spoken a word, they could clearly feel that Lu Tianxing was already furious to the extreme.

”I’m fine.”

Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, glanced around, didn’t say anything, casually threw the phone away, and turned to walk step by step towards Lu Hongda. With each step, the killing intent on Lu Tianxing grew stronger, and a cold aura emanated from him.

”Old Sir, should we stop Third Young Master...?”

At some unknown time, Lu Chuan appeared beside Old Master Lu, his somewhat cloudy eyes showing undisguised concern.

”Let him be! This is his own doing; he can’t blame anyone else.”

Old Master Lu watched the scene, finally slowly closed his eyes, and turned towards the hall. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to intervene, but he couldn’t intervene anymore. Lu Hongda had already reached the point where he was hated by everyone. If he were to stop Lu Tianxing now, it would be protecting Lu Hongda, likely causing Lu Tianxing to lose control. Furthermore, it’s all his own doing. Before faking death, he told Lu Tianxing to spare Lu Hongda’s life because he guessed Lu Hongda might betray the Lu Family and clash with Lu Tianxing. Now, with the vendetta between them being beyond reconciliation, how could he stop it? Both sides are dear to him, and he can only turn a blind eye.

Lu Bowen and Lu Haoyue and others saw this beside them, opened their mouths, wanting to say something, but ultimately said nothing, and, like Old Master Lu, slowly closed their eyes.

When someone does something wrong, they must pay the price.

And other Lu Family members also remained silent. They weren’t foolish; Lu Tianxing’s killing intent was sky-high at this moment. If they were to stop Lu Tianxing now, who knows if he would kill them too? Lu Tianxing was a lawless person, and he absolutely would. Moreover, once Lu Hongda died, the forces under his name would belong to them. Why would they plead for leniency now?

”Slap!”

Lu Tianxing walked up to Lu Hongda, raised his hand without hesitation, and slapped his face.

With the slap, everyone felt as if the air around them was suddenly emptied; they only saw a faint shadow flash by, followed by Lu Hongda’s entire body being flung away like a giant spinning top.

”Ah!”

A miserable cry rang out; Lu Hongda was slapped and ejected straight away, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood, lying on the ground, half of his face beaten to a bloody pulp.

”Lu Tianxing, you’re seeking death...”

Tossed aside by Lu Tianxing’s slap, the meridian in Lu Hongda’s body directly opened, his True Qi surged skywards, and he stood up, ready to charge towards Lu Tianxing. But before he could make any move, Lu Tianxing’s figure flashed next to Lu Hongda, raising his foot, without hesitation, kicked towards Lu Hongda’s knee.
