85: Determined to kill
Although Lu Jingyan was young, he was experienced. Usually, the one sparring with him was Lu Jingan.
He didn't care if you were his younger brother; his attacks were much fiercer than Lu Xuan's.
"Hmph, if I kill you, I suppose Lu Xuan will be sad for a long time!"
The blade technique used by Mo Changping was sharp and fierce.
Failing to take him down after a long assault, coupled with the opponent's sustained Aura, made him uneasy.
"Hehe, old dog, just because you're a few years older than me, you think you can take me down."
"Sharp-tongued bastard! Let me see if the blade of a Lu Family son is as sharp as your mouth."
A flicker of anger appeared on Mo Changping's face. Being outnumbered and still unable to secure a victory was already humiliating, and now he was being insulted by a junior. This hadn't happened in years.
Veins bulged on his arm, and the strength with which he swung his great saber increased slightly. After all, Mo Changping had been immersed in the Peak Innate Realm realm for many years; his blade technique was flawless, and his True Qi was solid and profound.
"Old dog, evil dog, treacherous dog!"
Lu Jingyan continued to insult him non-stop, and the blue light in his eyes grew brighter.
The two sides fought fiercely for fifty or sixty rounds.
"There it is."
The light in Lu Jingyan's eyes receded as he spotted a weakness in the blade technique.
The long saber in his hand swept out, attacking the weak point. Mo Changping seemed to have run straight into Lu Jingyan's blade.
Pfft~
With just one strike, Mo Changping's chest was sliced open.
Blood spurted out, and he flew backward.
"Steward Mo!"
The remaining four were even more horrified.
They hadn't expected Lu Jingyan to be so formidable at such a young age. They knew that whenever their Young Master Wang Chenfeng sparred with Mo Changping, it usually ended in a draw.
And that was because Mo Changping hadn't dared to use his full strength, which meant this young man was stronger than their Young Master.
Could their Wang Family truly defeat a Lu Family like this?
Fear spread in their hearts, while Wu Da and Wu Er were greatly encouraged by Lu Xuan's performance.
"Young Master is mighty!"
Their Aura rose higher; they fought fearlessly.
As one side weakened, the other grew stronger.
Lu Jingyan and the other two, conversely, were now suppressing the four opponents.
Finally, after another Innate Martial Artist died, the remaining three lost the will to fight and only wanted to flee.
Flee Pingze, flee the Wang Family.
They knew the Wang Family was finished.
But Lu Jingyan and the two others wouldn't let them go. In just a short while, all five men were slain.
"Are you two alright?"
Seeing Wu Da and the other man covered in blood, Lu Jingyan asked.
"Young Master, we are fine, they are just superficial wounds."
"You two did well. From now on, you will follow me!"
Lu Jingyan was very satisfied with these two brothers. Although their archery and strength were lacking, they suited his taste.
Wu Da and his companion's eyes lit up, and they knelt on the ground.
"Thank you for your appreciation, Young Master."
"Alright, stand up. The battle isn't over yet."
Wu Da and his companion were extremely excited. They knew that the treatment for Martial Guards was definitely different from directly following a Young Master—they were surely going to prosper... Wang Weifeng was attacking frantically, holding nothing back.
"I already backed down and left the Wang Family. Why are you still relentlessly pursuing me?"
"Why did you humiliate my mother? Why?"
"Why did you attack the Lu Family? Why?"
With every swing, he roared at Wang Chenfeng.
This was the relentless motivation that drove his cultivation and self-pushing throughout the years.
Since childhood, his mother told him he was a concubine's son and should not conflict with Wang Chenfeng. For his mother's sake, he endured everything.
When he was five, he was thrown into a pond; if he hadn't struggled desperately, he would have died long ago.
When he was seven, he only received half of his monthly stipend from the Family, the other half going to his so-called older brother.
When he was ten... He had suffered too many injustices growing up. If it weren't for his father, he probably wouldn't have been able to persevere.
He didn't know why, when there were other concubine-born children in the Family, they only targeted him.
"You are just a concubine's son. My Wang Family raised you, yet you show no gratitude and still try to kill me, hehehe~"
Wang Chenfeng felt panicked. He realized he couldn't quite defeat his younger brother, so he tried to use words to break down his opponent's will.
"Hehehe, killing you won't prevent me from repaying the Wang Family for raising me. Those who gave birth to me and raised me are my parents. I didn't hog the Family's resources like you, only to remain a piece of trash who is merely Innate."
Wang Weifeng was no longer that eighteen-year-old child. The thought of feeling guilty or sparing him had never once crossed his mind.
All he wanted was to chop off his brother's head and tell the Family that had once humiliated him:
Your heir is nothing special.
"No matter how hard you try, you are a concubine's son, and you always will be."
Feeling the wounds on his body, he admitted he was panicking.
"Where are the Wang Family Personal Guards? Where is Mo Changping?"
He shouted loudly, disregarding his usual demeanor as a member of a great clan, only wanting to survive.
The Wang Family's Xiantian Personal Guards heard the cry of their Young Family Head and tried to disengage.
But how could Ye Feng let them leave?
"Hold them back for me!"
Instantly, the previously fatigued individuals all erupted with considerable strength.
Some Houtian Martial Artists on the periphery saw the cruel battlefield and felt the urge to retreat. Several Martial Artists recruited by the Wang Family secretly fled.
Lu Xuan watched but did not intercept them. For these small fry, the Hunting Team members were waiting behind.
Since they came, they should leave their lives here..."Big Brother, hehe, your mind is in chaos, and your blade is messy. Are you scared? The Young Family Head of the Wang Family, the Legitimate Eldest Son, is scared—scared of me, a concubine's son."
Wang Weifeng's voice seemed to come from the abyss, making Wang Chenfeng's hair stand on end.
"You lunatic!"
Although he was covered in wounds, Wang Weifeng was no better off, perhaps even more severely injured.
"Hehe, all I want is for you to die!"
Wang Chenfeng continuously parried, and suddenly he spotted a flaw in Wang Weifeng's defense.
His long sword thrust out.
"Go to hell, you concubine's son!"
"Hehe, you finally fell for it."
The long sword pierced Wang Weifeng's shoulder, and just as Wang Chenfeng was about to pull it out, Wang Weifeng grabbed hold of it.
"I came with the resolve to die, just to kill you, Big Brother!"
Wang Weifeng spat out fresh blood, yet he didn't care at all.
With the long sword piercing his shoulder, he lunged forward along the blade.
He severed Wang Chenfeng's arm with a single strike.
"Ah!"
Wang Chenfeng quickly sealed his Acupoints to stop the bleeding. Looking at the demonic frenzy of Wang Weifeng, he was truly terrified in that instant.
He turned and ran.
Ambitions of annexing the Lu Family, Family honor, and grand rhetoric about Martial Dao Families having only one voice—all were instantly forgotten. He just wanted to live, he just wanted to run.
Just as Wang Weifeng was about to pursue, he saw Ye Feng was already ahead of him.
Ye Feng delivered a kick to the center of Wang Chenfeng's back.
Pfft~
A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out.
He collapsed onto the snow.
Ye Feng grabbed Wang Chenfeng's head and brought him to the front of the mountain.
"Wang Chenfeng of the Wang Family has been captured! Everyone surrender or be killed!"
"Surrender or be killed!"
The Lu Family Martial Artists shouted loudly when they saw this scene.
The recruited Martial Artists watched this scene and immediately dropped their weapons.
They knew the tide had turned.
However, the Wang Family Martial Artists were still thinking of snatching Wang Chenfeng back.
But at this moment, the Aura of the Lu Family Martial Artists reached its Peak.
They quickly killed the resistors, while a portion of the remaining Wang Family Martial Artists surrendered without a fight.
"Make all the Martial Artists take the Qi-Slowing Powder."
He instructed a Innate Martial Artist.
Martial Artists who take the Qi-Slowing Powder will become weak and unable to use True Qi. It is specially used to deal with Innate Martial Artists.
As long as the Innate Martial Artists are controlled, everyone else is negligible.
