64: At the meeting of the ten bosses, Lu Jin’s attack power is at full capacity!
In a blink of an eye, a week had passed just like that.
During this time, Zhang Chulan and Xu San had all left Mount Longhu.
Lu Jin and the Lu Family Class, after confirming their injuries were stable, also submitted their resignations to the Old Celestial Master.
As she left, Lu Linglong's reluctant gaze seemed to want to drag Lin Yuan down the mountain with her.
"Immortal Master Lin Yuan, why don't you come down the mountain with me? There are so many fun things to do down there. Don't you like playing Go? I can play Go with you."
"No, Linglong, I've recently taken a liking to playing Go, and playing by myself is quite nice. Besides, there are still many things on the mountain that I need to attend to."
Lu Jin looked at his somewhat unruly granddaughter and immediately pulled her over.
"Linglong, you're not a child anymore, can't you be a bit more composed!"
"Oh~ I understand, Great-Grandpa."
The Old Celestial Master watched the playful group from the side, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"Hehe... Youth is truly wonderful. We also wanted to be like that back then."
While Lu Jin was outwardly scolding Lu Linglong, inwardly he was ecstatic.
Zhang Zhiwei! You suppressed me for so long back then, and now the Heaven-Reaching Talisman has been taken by your Tianshi Mansion. Once this boy Lin Yuan is taken by Linglong, then the seniority will change!
Lu Jin actually liked Lin Yuan's character very much. Though young, he was far superior to ordinary people, and he was always polite. But this boy was a snake in disguise... Could he carry on the family line?... Never mind, in ancient times, Xu Xian slept with a white snake. As long as Linglong likes him, it doesn't matter.
Thinking of this, Lu Jin raised an eyebrow at the Old Celestial Master.
"Alright, Old Celestial Master, your Tianshi Mansion really produces talented people. Each one of them has been quite the philanderer outside. I estimate this pure Daoist place will soon no longer be pure."
The Old Celestial Master indifferently picked his ear.
"So what? When I was young, I was even more handsome and dashing than my disciple. I wasn't worried then, so why would I worry about these Juniors now?"
Lu Jin immediately rolled his eyes at him.
"Stop spouting nonsense! Always praising yourself! Were you even close to handsome and dashing when you were young? You were a complete bandit! Your hair looked like it was constantly exploded by firecrackers!"
"Lu Jin! You keep revealing my past secrets, that's enough!"
"I won't! But both of your disciples have inherited one thing from you! And that's being falsely proper! Zhang Lingyu! Lin Yuan! They look like upright gentlemen, but each one is more secretly lustful than the last! They all know how to flirt with young girls!"
"In this regard, you're just like your younger self!"
Old Celestial Master: ???
"You have to take responsibility for that statement! I can sue you for defamation! You are defaming me!"
"Senior Brother! Old Lu is defaming me!"
Tian Jinzhong waved his hand with a smile from the side.
"Alright, alright, Senior Brother, the Juniors are all watching. Let's save some face, or else all those stories will be spread."
After hearing that, the Old Celestial Master immediately turned his head.
"Lin Yuan! See them out for me!"
Just as he turned and walked away, his phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. The caller ID showed Zhao Fangxu.
"Hmm? What is it?"
"..."
"What did you say? The Ten Elders' meeting? I understand!"
The Old Celestial Master couldn't help but frown deeply.
Meanwhile, Lu Jin, who had just hung up the phone, also had a solemn expression.
"Old Celestial Master! Lin Yuan is probably in trouble now!"
...Three days later.
Inside a conference room at All-Kinds-Of headquarters.
Lu Jin, Feng Zhenghao, Lü Ci, Guan Shihua, the Old Celestial Master... a total of nine people. Except for Wang Ai's absence, everyone else was present.
Guan Shihua looked at Wang Ai's empty seat, a sarcastic smile appearing on her lips.
"Hehehe... How pathetic. He was beaten so badly that he still can't get out of bed. Truly sad."
Over the years, Wang Ai, because he possessed Soul Summoning, had many conflicts with their Northeast shamanic lineage. In the end, they had no choice but to keep their distance.
There was no way around it; Soul Summoning was an absolute suppression against the shamanic lineage.
If the great immortals they had worshipped for generations were captured like that and became someone else's property, they might even be eaten as supplements.
Now Wang Ai was basically crippled, and Wang Bing of the Wang family was also dead. The Wang family was essentially cut off. How could she not be happy?
Lü Ci, on the other hand, stared at Guan Shihua with extreme displeasure.
"Stop gloating! Be careful, Lin Yuan might come knocking on your family's door!"
Guan Shihua smiled indifferently:
"Hehehe, Lü Ci! Stop slandering me! We all know why you were beaten back then!"
"We are not like you, threatening a Junior for some so-called Source of Qi. Our shamanic lineage has always been honest and law-abiding in the Northeast, provoking no one. What do I have to fear?"
"But then again! You, Lü Ci, are accustomed to being arrogant and overbearing, how could you ever look down on honest and decent people like us?"
"Oh!? Guan Shihua! By the looks of it! You're quite indignant!?"
"What!? Lü Ci! Don't think that just because your nickname is 'Mad Dog,' this granny is afraid of you!"
"Enough!!"
Lu Jin then stood up and reprimanded the two.
"Lü Ci, how dare you bring this up! A Senior being beaten like this by a Junior, don't you feel ashamed? Beaten to this extent! You've lost all face!"
As soon as he said this, the Old Celestial Master, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but give a thumbs-up!
Holy crap! Old Lu! You've got guts!
Tough!!!
Lü Ci slammed the table and cursed furiously:
"Lu Jin! Do you dare to go outside and spar with me!!!!"
The Old Celestial Master immediately narrowed his eyes.
"There's no need for Lu Jin to get involved in this, is there? You actively provoked Zhang Chulan, he practices the Golden Light Spell! He knows the Thunder Method of Mount Longhu!"
"The one who beat you so badly your parents could barely recognize you was Lin Yuan! I am the Celestial Master of Mount Longhu! How about we two go outside and have a match?"
Lü Ci immediately deflated upon hearing this.
"Hmph! My injuries haven't healed yet! Once I recover, I will definitely get my revenge!"
Lu Jin sat down and said with a mocking smile:
"Ah, right, right, right! How does Grey Wolf's catchphrase go every time he gets knocked away?"
"I'll be back!"
"You!!!"
The veins on Lü Ci's forehead throbbed wildly.
At this moment, Feng Zhenghao voluntarily stood up to mediate.
"Alright! Alright! Everyone! We are here to discuss matters today. It's not good to start fighting and killing as soon as we meet."
Just then, a middle-aged man pushed in Wang Ai, who was covered in bandages and sitting in a wheelchair.
Everyone who saw Wang Ai's miserable state couldn't help but click their tongues.
Wang Ai's face was pale, and he sat weakly in the wheelchair. Both of his legs and his right hand had been amputated. Although his left hand was preserved, it was in a thick cast, and his left eye had been replaced with a prosthetic one.
If not for having known Wang Ai for a long time, everyone present would probably have had difficulty recognizing him...
