Chapter 1658: Chapter 1651: Lu Tianxing’s Doubts

Although there have been numerous twists in this plan, it now seems to have succeeded. The only thing that surprised Lu Tianxing was the strength of Charles by Avril’s side. Before executing this plan, he had already estimated Charles’s strength quite highly in his heart, which is why he discussed with Han Zifeng and Sima Lingyun, advising them to wait until Poseidon made a move before joining in, forcing Avril to have no choice but to let Charles act, then the two of them would turn and attack Charles, while Poseidon would be dealt with by him, Sima Lingyun, and Lu Chuan.

Even so, Lu Tianxing still did not expect Charles’s strength to be so terrifying, as he managed to hold his ground against two late-stage mythical opponents, undefeated. If it weren’t for the sudden appearance of Cangwu, even if his plan succeeded, he feared the losses would be substantial, and he, Sima Lingyun, and the others might have died at the Great Wall.

”Fortunately, Cangwu appeared suddenly; otherwise, even if the plan succeeded by chance, the cost would have been unbelievably high. It seems Charles must have hidden his strength when meeting Sima Lingyun and others.”

”However, who sent Cangwu here? To willingly command a late-stage mythical powerhouse, and this spear technique is simply too frightening. Once you’re caught in it, unless you can disrupt his attack, you might just end up dead.”

Lu Tianxing watched Cangwu fighting Poseidon without any resistance, a somber look flickering in his eyes.

He sensed an unending, storm-like aura in Cangwu’s spear technique. Cangwu’s current spear moves seemed like a complete chain combo; once he executed the first move, the second move would definitely follow, then the third, until the entire combo was completed. Each move’s power surpassed the previous one—if the first move was a trickle, the second became a brook, the third became a river, and eventually the force of the ocean, overwhelming everything. Once trapped in his combo and unable to break it, death is the only outcome.

”Boss, do you know Cangwu?”

At that moment, Han Zifeng walked over from the side.

Meanwhile, Starving Ghost and others did not come over but quietly moved towards Avril, blocking all her escape routes.

Lu Tianxing was slightly taken aback after hearing Han Zifeng’s words, ”Why, Third Young Master Han, do you know him?”

”Of course I do. Cangwu, the renowned Fenghuo Gun God, a late-stage mythical expert, particularly known for that set of Fenghuo Spear Techniques, is simply marvelous. Didn’t you see? His moves are continuous, like a storm, and this is the most terrifying combo move in the Fenghuo Spear Technique—Thirty Strikes. Once you’re caught in these thirty consecutive moves, if you can’t disrupt his combo, each move will be stronger than the last. Cangwu once used this very combo to forcefully kill a newly-entered late-stage mythical superpower user with his peak mid-stage mythical strength, thus breaking through to the late-stage mythical level.”

Han Zifeng looked at Cangwu, suppressing Poseidon in the void, and said with a wry smile, ”Boss, I was just worried something might happen to you, but who knew you knew Cangwu? It seems we’ve won this time. Even if there are some hidden threats around, they won’t dare show up. Otherwise, facing the Fenghuo Gun God, anyone who comes will surely die unless someone as terrifying as Old Master Lu appears.”

Hearing Han Zifeng’s words, Lu Tianxing slightly frowned. It seems Cangwu’s reputation is quite significant, but he clearly doesn’t remember ever meeting Cangwu. This should be their first meeting. So, why is the other party helping him? Could it be that someone like Old Master Lu or Angel sent him?

A thought suddenly flashed in Lu Tianxing’s mind, but it was quickly dismissed. It couldn’t be Angel; he’s clear about Angel’s current situation—no late-stage mythical experts. Besides, Angel is busy competing for the clan leader’s inheritance rights in the Morgan Family and can’t free up time. As for being sent by Old Master Lu, that seems equally unlikely. If Old Master Lu sent someone, he would have informed him immediately, not kept it a secret. Since it’s not Old Master Lu’s people, then who sent Cangwu?

”Third Young Master Han, do you know where Cangwu comes from?” Lu Tianxing suddenly turned his head, looking at Han Zifeng as he asked.

”Cangwu is from Qin Island, a disciple of Beiqiang Jiang Liufeng. Why, boss, don’t you know him?” Han Zifeng looked at Lu Tianxing with some confusion.

”Beiqiang Jiang Liufeng?”

Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Lu Tianxing slightly frowned. Just as he was about to speak further, he heard a voice full of urgency coming from behind.

”Lu Tianxing, are you okay? Are you hurt?”

Lu Tianxing instinctively turned his head and saw Xue Bing, her face full of anxiety, running over under the lead of Jiao Long, her pretty face unable to hide her worried expression.

As the voice arrived, Xue Bing had already run to Lu Tianxing’s side, but found that Lu Tianxing had not said anything, and the anxiety on his face became more intense. Her hand groped over Lu Tianxing’s body, trying to see where he was injured.

Seeing the unconcealable anxiety in Xue Bing’s eyes, a trace of warmth emerged in Lu Tianxing’s heart. Without any hesitation, he directly reached out to hold Xue Bing in his arms, and softly said, ”Don’t worry, I’m fine, Xiao Bing, thank you for caring about me so much.”

Being held in Lu Tianxing’s arms, Xue Bing’s heart trembled instantly, an unprecedented sense of security surged in her heart. She could no longer care about anything else, directly reaching out to embrace Lu Tianxing, as if wanting to merge with him completely.

She was really scared, truly scared. When she saw Poseidon ambush Lu Tianxing, Xue Bing felt as if her heart jumped to her throat, fearing something might happen to Lu Tianxing. Yet, she could do nothing, only able to watch everything happening. It can be imagined how oppressed Xue Bing felt in her heart.

”Alright, I’m fine now, and besides, there are so many people watching! Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by others?” Lu Tianxing reached out, gently patted Xue Bing’s back, and said.

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Xue Bing subconsciously raised her head and glanced around, immediately seeing Han Zifeng, who was standing beside Lu Tianxing with wide eyes. A blush quickly flashed across her pretty face, and she hurriedly left Lu Tianxing’s embrace.

”I’ve recently developed intermittent blindness, I saw nothing.”

Feeling Xue Bing’s gaze, Han Zifeng decisively found an excuse, then secretly gave Lu Tianxing a thumbs-up. He truly admired his skill in flirting. How long had it been since he came to Beijing, and he already wooed such a beautiful woman? Truly impressive.

Seeing Han Zifeng’s gesture, Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes and said to Xue Bing, ”Xiao Bing, stay here for now, I’ll go check on the Holy Daughter of the Holy See.”

”Okay, be careful.” Xue Bing nodded solemnly and said.

”Don’t worry! It’s alright.”

Lu Tianxing waved his hand, his gaze fell on Avril not far away, a mocking smile flashed across his face, and he walked towards Avril immediately.

Meanwhile, in another direction, Yang Anlong, who was initially excited, now looked extremely grim, exuding an intense killing intent. Seeing that Lu Tianxing was about to die at Poseidon’s hands, he didn’t need to act. But who would have thought a new obstacle would appear and save Lu Tianxing, even blocking Poseidon, which made Yang Anlong’s face turn grim.

To Yang Anlong, not having to act was naturally the best. After all, if Lu Tianxing really died at Poseidon’s hands, it would be the best outcome for the Yang Family, as long as Avril didn’t die, the Yang Family would gain a powerful ally. But the scene now clearly told Yang Anlong that Poseidon was doomed, and Avril’s scheming was utterly thwarted this time. Originally able to easily kill Lu Tianxing, everything changed drastically with the addition of Cangwu, leaving Avril almost certain to lose this time.

”Damn it, damn it, Cangwu, Fenghuo Gun God, Jiang Liufeng, it seems the rumors from twenty years ago were indeed true. Jiang Hongyan is Jiang Liufeng’s daughter. Had I known, I would have killed you twenty years ago to nip this in the bud once and for all.”

Yang Anlong’s eyes flickered with brutal intent, overflowing with killing intent.

More than twenty years ago, when they planned to attack Lu Tianzhan and Jiang Hongyan, they heard that Jiang Hongyan was Jiang Liufeng’s daughter. Those families besieging Lu Tianzhan then united to send experts to Qin Island in the north, intending to kill Jiang Liufeng as well. However, Jiang Liufeng’s displayed strength at the time was so daunting they lost several experts before finally straining to have the Tang Family poison Jiang Liufeng with something called ”Falling Blossom Leaves.” Even so, Jiang Liufeng remained unharmed and they had to retreat.

After that battle, those families suffered significant losses. Moreover, Jiang Liufeng, though poisoned, would not die, as his strength would gradually decline year after year. Furthermore, Jiang Liufeng had been friends with Ji Xingyun before. Truly killing Jiang Liufeng would be unwise and offend Ji Xingyun, benefiting no one. So they let it be.

Yet, Yang Anlong never expected that today, Jiang Liufeng’s disciple, Cangwu, would intervene, kneeling before Lu Tianxing. It was evident that Lu Tianxing had a connection with Jiang Liufeng, likely as the rumors suggested over twenty years ago: Jiang Hongyan was Jiang Liufeng’s daughter, and Lu Tianxing was his grandson. Otherwise, why would Cangwu kneel before Lu Tianxing?
