160: Questioning the Tang family

Only after the grey-robed figures completely vanished did the powerful aura dissipate.

Everyone finally regained their ability to move, but it was too late to chase after them!

"Damn it! The ice coffin was just snatched away like that!"

"Who are these people?! They exude the aura of demons! But judging by the outline beneath their clothes, they are clearly human!"

"The ice coffin is gone, doesn't that mean our mission has failed?!"

This voice was like a firecracker igniting in the team!

A person from the Song Family pointed a finger and cursed, "It's all your fault! Young Master Lu was protecting the ice coffin perfectly, but you just had to look at it, which led to it being stolen! If it weren't for you, none of this would have happened!"

The others looked at this person from the Tang Family with anger, clearly attributing all responsibility for this incident to him!

"Exactly, it's you! It's all you Tang Family! I hate nothing more than carrying out a mission with you Tang Family members, something always goes wrong! Now look, the item is gone, and we all have to be punished with you!"

"Heh, punished? What does the loss of the item have to do with us? This person from the Tang Family is clearly fully responsible! I will definitely report everything when I return! I believe the Family Head is not an unreasonable person!"

These accusations made the few Tang Family members feel like they were treading on thin ice, their faces pale.

Even Tang Chenyi was in a dilemma, unable to say anything to comfort the crowd!

Finally, the accused Tang Family member grew anxious, trembling as he stretched out a hand, pointing at Lu Ze, and shouted, "But the item wasn't lost in our Tang Family's hands, it was Lu—"

"Slap!"

Before he could finish, a slap landed, forcefully interrupting his words.

The man was stunned, turning his head in a daze, only to see Fu Liang in front of him, shaking his hand, his expression cold.

"Damn it, you Tang Family still want to throw mud on others? This Young Master now has reason to suspect whether those mysterious people were sent by your Tang Family to infiltrate! Otherwise, why were you so eager to see the ice coffin the moment you saw Young Master Lu?!"

Everyone nodded when they heard Fu Liang's words.

Indeed, didn't the Qin Family pull this trick before?

They used the opportunity to divert Qin Xiong, and at the last moment, tried to forcibly snatch the ice coffin!

But in the end, Lu Ze discovered them and killed him on the spot!

Qin Xiong's Realm was still within the Fourth Grade, and Lu Ze had the strength to confront him and kill him.

But today's situation involved the suppression of a Sixth Grade Realm!

Two major Realms, even if Lu Ze was the number one Genius of this world, it would be impossible for him to cross two major Realms!

"You Tang Family members are truly... despicable!"

Scorn erupted from everyone's eyes, like a long sword, pinning the Tang Family members firmly to the pillar of shame!

Tang Chenyi increasingly felt that things were not good; if this accusation was confirmed, the Tang Family would be ruined!

He hurriedly spoke, "I am the overall person in charge of this mission for the Tang Family! I have not received any such orders from the Family! This is absolutely not our Tang Family—"

His voice abruptly stopped. Tang Chenyi suddenly remembered that when they went to snatch Myriad Things Grow, the Family had given him one mission openly, but secretly ordered others to carry out another.

Could it be the same this time?!

Did the Family arrange another plan, but keep it from him?!

"Absolutely... absolutely not our Tang Family..."

After a small pause, Tang Chenyi's voice became faint and very uncertain, his face growing paler, his eyes flickering unsteadily.

This, in the eyes of the others, completely confirmed their suspicions.

The Tang Family is truly shameless!

Pulling such petty tricks in private, and they are Xuanyuan City's second Family!

They are completely unworthy of their position!

"Heh heh, what a Tang Family, truly well done! You want to drag us down, do you! Anyway, no matter what, we'll be punished when we go back, so let me take some interest from you first!"

A person from the Song Family was the first to rush out, throwing a punch directly at Tang Chenyi's head!

The others also looked indignant, following with their fists swinging!

For a time, the scene was chaotic, with people from the Song and Xia Families beating the Tang Family members to death!

Song Wushuang and Fu Liang did not participate, nor did they stop it, merely keeping their eyes on Lu Ze, awaiting his command!

At some point, as long as Lu Ze was present, they would regard him as their core and obey his arrangements.

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes, watching the group's fight.

The Tang Family... the Tang Family had a lot of questionable actions before, and because the Tang Family was once glorious, they inherently looked down on the other three Families, so there should be a fundamental conflict with the other three Families.

Using them as a shield was indeed very suitable.

Finally, when the group was fighting until their heads were bleeding, Lu Ze suddenly spoke, "Stop!"

His voice, carrying the full power of a Fourth Grade Peak, exploded, suppressing everyone present!

Everyone was suppressed instantly, shrinking their necks, withdrawing from the fight, and standing quietly.

Lu Ze frowned tightly, looking very impatient, "Go back first, as for the matters that follow, Deputy Director Meng and the others will make their own decisions!"

After speaking, Lu Ze directly stepped into the formation Feng Yue had set up, a powerful force surging around him, and Lu Ze returned to the fragrant temple filled with gardens.

Feng Yue sat on a stone chair, holding a cup of fragrant tea, and slightly tilted her head to glance at Lu Ze, her eyes dark and hollow, lost in thought.

Fu Liang and Song Wushuang arrived in the temple a step later, and seeing Feng Yue's appearance, they still felt a chill.

Everyone else followed one by one.

Lu Ze stepped forward, slightly raised his hand towards Feng Yue, performing a Junior's bow, and said, "Thank you, Senior. We Juniors will take our leave."

After speaking, Lu Ze lifted his foot to leave, and the others followed.

Suddenly, Feng Yue's voice appeared only in Lu Ze's ears, "Boy, on account of you bringing that coffin back for this servant, this servant will give you a reminder: you, boy, have already entered the game. Perhaps, you seem to control everything, but you are merely someone else's chess piece. You, take care of yourself."

Lu Ze paused his steps slightly, turned slightly, and said, "Thank you, Senior."

After speaking, Lu Ze strode away.

Not long after, everyone returned to the place where they had previously entered this ruin.

Now, many of them had already returned here.

Most of these people were injured, some even with severed hands and feet.

Fu Liang's eyes lit up, and he went up to promote the Spirit Medicine he brought, which could relieve pain, earning many good things.

He glanced at his phone; there were still three hours until the ruin would open and let them out.
