26: Senior Sister is coming back!
Outside the Bai Family mansion.
Garrison Chief Chen and Alliance Leader Yun stood on a rooftop, watching the Bai Family members leave Yun City for Demon Slaughter City.
"I wonder what background that young fellow Lu Sheng has, to actually attract the attention of such a big figure in Demon Slaughter City!"
Alliance Leader Yun stroked his slightly rotund belly, watching the Bai Family members with a smile.
"Tsk tsk tsk, when I heard the call from above just now, I almost thought I was going to be in trouble!"
Garrison Chief Chen, standing beside him with his hands behind his back, maintained his solemn expression.
It wasn't until the Bai Family members had left Yun City and disappeared from his sight that he spoke in his cold voice.
"During this period, the Martial Arts Families have truly become a bit disobedient. If it weren't for the fact that Great Xia Human Clan truly needs their existence to help resist the Otherworldly Demons, otherwise..."
A sharp gleam flashed in Garrison Chief Chen's eyes.
"Perfect, using this incident with the Bai Family to kill a chicken to warn the monkeys. Otherwise, these Martial Arts Families will truly believe that just because they are local tyrants, no one dares to touch them!"
"Hmph!"
Garrison Chief Chen snorted, his voice filled with an extremely dense Evil Qi.
"Sigh, what can we do? We can't just kill all of them, can we!"
Alliance Leader Yun sighed, his gaze gradually deepening.
Garrison Chief Chen paused, a thoughtful look in his eyes, as if contemplating whether this plan was feasible.
Alliance Leader Yun looked at Garrison Chief Chen's expression and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"Damn it, military people are indeed a bunch of bloodthirsty maniacs!"
Alliance Leader Yun cursed, then said with a headache, "Alright, alright, leave the rest to me. You military personnel just take care of your city defense!"
With that, Alliance Leader Yun waved his hand at Garrison Chief Chen as if in disdain.
Then he disappeared from where he stood.
Garrison Chief Chen glanced at the Bai Family courtyard, then disappeared into the night... Inside the rental house.
Lu Sheng lay on the bed, occasionally looking out the window.
"The Bai Family..."
Lu Sheng murmured softly, a hint of killing intent emerging in his eyes.
He didn't know if Lan Linglong standing up for him would completely provoke the Bai Family. If, because of him, the Bai Family started targeting the entire Heaven and Earth Martial Hall, then...
Lu Sheng would not feel good about it.
As a result, at this time, Lu Sheng would usually have already fallen asleep, but now he was tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Ding!
Suddenly, a message popped up on the phone placed on his bedside table.
Lu Sheng picked up his phone to check, only to find it was a news pop-up.
Lu Sheng glanced at it, then his pupils constricted slightly, and he abruptly sat upright.
"Yun City Bai Family Suspected of Assassinating Great Xia Martial Artist, All Martial Artists Above Qi Blood Realm Are Ordered to Immediately Proceed to the Otherworldly Demon Battlefield and Guard the Battlefield for Twenty Years!》"
A piece of news instantly appeared in Lu Sheng's vision.
"This..."
A look of shock appeared on Lu Sheng's face.
Just now, he was still worrying about whether the Bai Family would shift their anger to the Heaven and Earth Martial Hall, and now they were suddenly investigated.
A gleam flickered in Lu Sheng's eyes.
Recalling what Lan Linglong had said to him, Lu Sheng instantly connected the dots.
"Senior Sister..."
Lu Sheng held his phone, feeling a surge of emotion.
One must know that the Bai Family was like a local tyrant in Yun City. It must have cost Senior Sister a considerable price to move against the Bai Family.
Thinking of this, the emotion in Lu Sheng's heart deepened considerably.
"It seems... I still need to become stronger!"
"Whether it's the foreign races hanging over the heads of all the Human Race of Great Xia, or some darkness in the world... only powerful strength can better protect oneself, and even... protect the Martial Hall!"
Lu Sheng murmured softly, his gaze gradually becoming resolute.
With no more worries, Lu Sheng lay on the bed, a slight smile playing on his lips, and closed his eyes.
A moment later, his breathing also became steady... The next day, Lu Sheng woke up early, first went to school, completed the day's Martial Arts Class practice, and then headed to the Heaven and Earth Martial Hall.
However, in the Martial Arts Class, Lu Sheng noticed that Bai Mo had changed significantly from his previous demeanor.
If the previous Bai Mo was like an arrogant rooster, then the current Bai Mo... was incomparably dispirited.
However, Lu Sheng wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but he distinctly felt that while he was practicing, Bai Mo seemed to be secretly watching him.
His gaze... even carried a hint of coldness.
But when Lu Sheng looked over, Bai Mo quickly shifted his gaze away.
Although extremely subtle, Lu Sheng still noticed it.
"This guy..."
Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly. After observing Bai Mo for a while, he retracted his gaze.
"Although I really want to kill you, this is still within the city!"
Lu Sheng murmured softly, a flash of killing intent passing through his eyes.
"If you continue to be so stubborn, then I don't mind finding an opportunity to get rid of you!"
Lu Sheng was no saint. As early as when Bai Mo had hired people to attack him, Lu Sheng had already wanted to kill Bai Mo.
However, a series of events unfolded too quickly afterward, and the Bai Family was already under investigation.
As a result, the Bai Family rapidly declined in Yun City. The entire Bai Family was left with only Bai Mo and some old, weak, and sick members.
But if this guy wanted to pull some dirty tricks, Lu Sheng wouldn't mind using some underhanded methods to finish him off!
A ruthless expression flashed across Lu Sheng's face.
After silently completing the Martial Arts Class training, Lu Sheng left the Martial Arts Training Hall without looking back.
As if there was nothing between him and Bai Mo.
Bai Mo stood in the corner, watching Lu Sheng's figure disappear from his sight with a sinister expression.
The rapid decline of the Bai Family also caused a huge stir in Yun City.
Just today, Bai Mo had already felt that many people's gazes towards him had changed.
His former lackeys now looked at him with a hint of disdain, and even quickly scurried away after seeing him, as if they didn't want to be associated with him.
Although not openly expressed, this subtle reaction still filled Bai Mo with endless anger.
When the Bai Family was at its Peak, everyone flattered him, but now that the Bai Family had fallen, they quickly severed ties.
This filled Bai Mo's heart with rage.
"Everything... is because of Lu Sheng!"
Bai Mo couldn't help but clench his fists, gritting his teeth, his body trembling slightly from excessive anger.
In Bai Mo's view, if it weren't for Lu Sheng, the Bai Family would not have fallen into such decline, and he himself would not have transformed overnight from the former young master of the Bai Family, a favored son of heaven, to his current state.
Only one thought remained in his mind.
Revenge on Lu Sheng!
Only by doing so could he vent the anger in his heart!
As for the warnings from his grandfather and father before they left, telling him not to think about revenge, those words were completely thrown to the back of Bai Mo's mind.
After Lu Sheng's figure disappeared from Bai Mo's sight, Bai Mo's expression gradually became calm.
He silently walked to a martial arts puppet where no one was training and began to train frantically... After leaving school, Lu Sheng arrived at the Heaven and Earth Martial Hall, where he met Lan Linglong in the hall.
"Senior Sister, last night..."
Lu Sheng hesitated, wanting to speak, but Lan Linglong directly interrupted him.
Lan Linglong smiled slightly, still looking incredibly gentle.
"Little Junior Brother, don't dwell on these things. Didn't I say it already? We are family!"
"Since we are family... we naturally share blessings and endure hardships together!"
Saying that, Lan Linglong winked at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng was silent for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.
"Mm!"
Lu Sheng nodded heavily.
"Alright, your most important task now is to diligently improve your strength, pass the Martial Arts College Entrance Examination, and enter a Martial Arts Academy. That's what you should be doing right now!"
"As for the Martial Hall here..."
"You still have me, your Senior Sister!"
Lan Linglong dotingly ruffled Lu Sheng's hair.
"Martial Arts College Entrance Examination, huh... and Martial Arts Academy..."
Lu Sheng murmured softly to himself.
"Alright, yesterday's incident was just a small interlude. Next, we'll continue according to the plan we made earlier, to hunt Vicious Beasts outside the city!"
"When you reach the limit of the Qi Blood Realm, that's when this stage of training will end!"
Lan Linglong said with a smile.
Lu Sheng nodded, then began to pack his things, preparing to go outside the city to hunt Vicious Beasts.
"Oh, right!"
Just as Lu Sheng was about to leave the Martial Hall, Lan Linglong seemed to remember something and called out to him.
Lu Sheng turned around, looking at Lan Linglong with some confusion.
Lan Linglong just smiled slightly.
"In a while, the Great Senior Sister will be returning to Yun City. At that time, you must perform well in front of her. The Great Senior Sister... has quite a few good things!"
"Great Senior Sister?"
Lu Sheng's heart stirred slightly.
He also became a little curious.
In the Heaven and Earth Martial Hall, whether it was the Outer Sect Disciples or Lan Linglong, whenever the words 'Great Senior Sister' were mentioned, everyone's faces showed respect.
Even within that respect, there was a hint of admiration.
Clearly, his Great Senior Sister held significant prestige within the Martial Hall!
"I wonder what kind of person the Great Senior Sister will be!"
Although Lu Sheng was curious, he quickly calmed down. After nodding to Lan Linglong, he left the Martial Hall.
