142: All correct

The nine great calamities blocked the Demon King and five Practitioners!

Army Devourer engaged in close combat with Yuan Ruifeng, who was at the Peak Transcendent Realm, their swords clashing with pleasant, crisp sounds.

Yuan Ruifeng cursed inwardly, wondering why the monster in front of him had such excessively powerful Sword Technique!

"All mine?"

Li Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan, who had spoken so arrogantly.

Although she didn't know how the three demons died, there were still four Demon Kings and six Transcendent Realm Practitioners present.

Lu Yuan's Calamities were indeed formidable, but they couldn't possibly eliminate so many powerhouses, could they?

A milky-white heavenly lightning bolt erupted from his fingertip, and Lu Yuan shot it towards Yuan Ruifeng, who was entangled with Army Devourer.

Bang!

Yuan Ruifeng winced in pain, his arm going numb with a shocking wound appearing on it.

Milky-white heavenly lightning?

Li Jinxue realized that Lu Yuan had comprehended a Thunder Attribute divine ability.

It was none other than the legendary Raging Thunder Divine Judgment!

Raging Thunder Divine Judgment, a top-tier Thunder Attribute divine ability, the same one as the previous Alliance Master of the Thunder Alliance!

Records about Raging Thunder Divine Judgment were scarce, and the milky-white heavenly lightning was its most prominent feature!

"These four Thunder Attribute Practitioners are mine, and that Thunder Tiger too," Lu Yuan said.

Seeing this, Army Devourer sheathed his sword and turned to assist the other Calamities.

Li Jinxue scrutinized Lu Yuan from head to toe.

Lu Yuan, who had consumed the top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure, grand void thunder wood, hadn't changed much from before.

He was still a Law Realm Six-Star Practitioner, but he had awakened the Thunder Attribute and comprehended the divine ability Raging Thunder Divine Judgment.

And he chose to challenge four Transcendent Realm Practitioners plus a Demon King by himself.

What gave Lu Yuan such confidence to do this?

"Arrogant!"

The battlefield was divided, and Lu Yuan faced five Transcendent Realm powerhouses alone.

To the Calamities, Nine Vipers' commands were general's orders.

Lu Yuan's commands, however, were sacred orders that they had to obey!

"Arrogant, utterly arrogant!"

Yuan Ruifeng felt insulted.

Even if Lu Yuan was a prodigy, breaking through to Law Realm Six-Star less than a year after awakening his profession.

He was still only in the Law Realm; how dare he challenge so many Transcendent Realm powerhouses?

In addition, Yuan Ruifeng noticed that after multiple battles, Lu Yuan's spiritual power was almost depleted.

"Kill him, then..."

Yuan Ruifeng licked his lips.

Earth Tier High-Grade Spirit Skill: Electric Light Fury Claws

Five Earth Tier High-Grade Spirit Skills rushed towards Lu Yuan, purple and blue lightning emitting deafening roars.

Without any barrier, Lu Yuan stood straight in place.

"What are you doing!" Li Jinxue's expression was anxious, watching helplessly as Lu Yuan was engulfed by the heavenly lightning.

"Hmph!"

Yuan Ruifeng scoffed.

He thought Lu Yuan had some trick up his sleeve, but it was just this?

"Awesome!"

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

The next second, the entire scene fell silent. Under Yuan Ruifeng's gaze, Lu Yuan absorbed all the Spirit Skills.

Not only was he unharmed, but his spiritual power had returned to its peak state!

A terrifying thought emerged in the minds of the Demon King and Practitioners like Yuan Ruifeng.

Lu Yuan, having consumed the grand void thunder wood, had gained immunity to Thunder Attribute Spirit Skills!

His heart suddenly spasmed, Yuan Ruifeng felt his breathing quicken, followed by despair!

As a top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure, consuming grand void thunder wood guaranteed 100% awakening of the Thunder Attribute, and a probability of immunity to Thunder Attribute Spirit Skills.

Due to the small sample size, this probability might not be accurate.

According to records, only eight people had consumed grand void thunder wood in the past thousand years.

Only one of them gained immunity to Thunder Attribute Spirit Skills!

"How can we fight this?" Yuan Ruifeng was dumbfounded.

Their Spirit Skill attacks couldn't harm Lu Yuan; instead, they would help him recover his spiritual power!

Close combat?

Yuan Ruifeng looked at Army Devourer, the Gold Calamity, and Blood Butcher, who held the serrated chain blade.

If it came to close combat, these two Calamities could kill all of them!

Pfft—

Only one Thunder Tiger remained among the four Demon Kings, and the Calamities seamlessly surrounded the other treasure seekers.

"Lu Yuan, I am from the Yuan Family, spare my life," Yuan Ruifeng said, attempting to use the Yuan Family to intimidate Lu Yuan.

"Never heard of them."

Lu Yuan shook his head.

He had only heard of the Jiang Family among the Hua Xia families, and that was because of Jiang Tianxia.

"Although the Yuan Family is not as good as the Jiang Family, it is also a prominent great family in Hua Xia. Spare my life, and tonight will be as if I never met you!" Yuan Ruifeng's words were laced with threats, his tone full of superiority when mentioning the Yuan Family.

Li Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan.

From her perspective, Lu Yuan could indeed spare Yuan Ruifeng's life.

As Yuan Ruifeng said, the Yuan Family was a first-rate family in Hua Xia.

Open arrows are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are hard to guard against. Killing Yuan Ruifeng might cause unnecessary trouble.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

Lu Yuan gripped Yuan Ruifeng's neck and began electrocuting him.

"Then do you know where I'm from?" Lu Yuan asked.

Yuan Ruifeng, whose face was flushed red and who couldn't breathe, while also being electrocuted, kept twitching.

"I'm from the Third Street of Tianhua District, Tianhua City!"

Li Jinxue: "..."

She wanted to laugh, but seeing Yuan Ruifeng, who had stopped breathing, Li Jinxue couldn't bring herself to.

After dealing with Yuan Ruifeng, Lu Yuan turned and walked towards the Thunder Tiger and the three Practitioners.

First, there was a painful tiger's roar, followed by pleas for mercy, and finally, the pleas disappeared.

Wiping the blood from his hands, Lu Yuan gestured for Li Jinxue to take all the spoils of war.

Looking at the many storage rings in her hand, Li Jinxue sighed at Lu Yuan's generosity.

So many good things, just given away!

Of course, the grand void thunder wood also brought Lu Yuan considerable gains: awakening the Thunder Attribute and comprehending the divine ability Raging Thunder Divine Judgment.

More importantly, immunity to Thunder Attribute Spirit Skills!

The great battle concluded, and both Lu Yuan and Li Jinxue returned with abundant harvests.

Under the gentle moonlight, the two headed to the Supply Point.

Li Jinxue's squad members were waiting for her.

Along the way, Li Jinxue seemed to hesitate, as if she wanted to say something but was unsure.

"We've been through life and death together, haven't we?" Li Jinxue said abruptly.

"And then?"

Lu Yuan stared into Li Jinxue's eyes.

"You... what kind of person do you think the Principal is?"

As expected, she mentioned the Principal!

A cold wind howled past, and Lu Yuan pondered for a moment.

"I haven't had much contact with the Principal, but he once served as the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Sword Alliance, was hailed as the God of War of Hua Xia, and led armies to reclaim a large amount of Hua Xia territory."

"Such a person deserves respect!"

At the end, Lu Yuan deliberately emphasized 'deserves respect,' but he was met with Li Jinxue's cold laugh.

"What if I told you that Lao Qiyuan killed my grandfather?" Li Jinxue's words were shocking.

Feng Shi flapped its wings and stopped flying.

Lu Yuan turned to face Li Jinxue directly, signaling her to continue.

"When I was eight, I personally witnessed Lao Qiyuan kill my grandfather!"

"I know you don't believe me, but Lao Qiyuan has a small sword-shaped birthmark on his left arm. I will never forget that day!"

Li Jinxue spoke in great detail, even describing the specific process of Lao Qiyuan murdering her grandfather.

Lu Yuan processed the large amount of information.

According to Li Jinxue, Li Hesong was a Fire Attribute, Domain Realm Artifact Refiner.

Artifact Refiners held noble status everywhere, and the spiritual artifact used to capture grand void thunder wood was her grandfather's relic.

"Do you still think he deserves respect now?" Li Jinxue asked.

Lu Yuan didn't answer her question; the words the Principal said at Hengsheng Headquarters appeared in his mind.

"Do you really think he will help us revive our wives and children? Impossible, don't fantasize anymore!"

"Li Hesong is your biological grandfather?" Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"No, I was an orphan since childhood; grandfather adopted me."

Li Jinxue was puzzled why Lu Yuan asked that.

What Lu Yuan said next made Li Jinxue's scalp tingle.

"Is Li Hesong's wife dead, including his biological children and grandson, all dead!"

Boom—

Li Jinxue was struck by lightning!

All correct, Lu Yuan's guesses were all correct!

Before her grandfather adopted her, his family was happy and complete.

However, his wife, with whom he had spent many years, his children, and even his grandson, who was only three months old, all died tragically overnight!
