I will become the Demon Immortal known to the whole world
Chapter 92 Lan Yue Pavilion, do you think I still have a chance?

Chapter 92: Chapter 92 Lan Yue Pavilion, do you think I still have a chance?

Too many people had died, not to mention the extermination of the entire Lu Family.

After a moment, with a bittersweet expression and a slight tremor, he lifted the teacup to his lips and drained it in one gulp.

"Benefactor, now that you’ve told me this, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Can the Huang Family let go of this matter? Or rather, can your sister let it go?"

Liang Hui slowly began to speak.

During his time with the Huang Family, he had come to understand that the true pillar of the family was the old man’s younger sister, whose stature within Lan Yue Pavilion was quite high and influential.

After all, she was the one who had forcefully pushed Elder Huang, a man of inferior martial arts, into a steward position.

If he had a choice, he did not want to tread the path of pursuit and counter-killing again. This was his attempt, and should anything go awry, he was ready to flee immediately.

A hint of hesitation flickered in the old man’s eyes, but upon seeing Liang Hui’s composed demeanor, he nodded lightly.

He took out a jade stone engraved with runes from his bosom and slowly channeled his inner strength into it.

A faint glow rose from the jade stone, gathering continuously until it formed the upper half of a lady.

The woman’s features were blurred and indistinct.

"Big brother, what matter do you have for me?" A gentle voice emanated from the projection.

"Xiao Wu, do you remember the young brother Qin Dao I mentioned before?...."

The old man did not hold back and narrated the recent events.

At that moment, the projection slowly turned and looked towards Liang Hui, who was sitting in the chair, examining him carefully before speaking.

"I need to know the reason you struck down those people."

"They took away my crafted spear," Liang Hui said without hiding anything and explained the reason.

"Robbery and plunder, I see," she said, understandingly.

"I cannot decide right away. I need to verify your words and confirm their truth, as Lan Yue Pavilion cannot afford to recruit a madman."

"Moreover, the daughter of the head of the Lu Family has quite a reputation within Lan Yue Pavilion, and covering this up will require some effort,"

Her words were filled with candor.

Then, her tone shifted.

"However, I can use my connections to suppress the matter for a day, and one day is enough for me to confirm everything."

Liang Hui watched the woman in the projection with an indifferent expression, then turned his gaze to the elder sitting in the higher position.

A light laugh escaped him.

"You care greatly for your brother, and I am not a maniac who only knows slaughter."

"Right and wrong, good and bad, I can discern them clearly. Tell me, Madam Huang, do you have the capability to conceal this matter, so as not to sever even a trace of goodwill?"

At that moment, the woman in the projection also fell silent, but after a moment, she responded earnestly.

"I have the capability, but you must pay a sufficient price. Merely for escorting my brother back, that is not enough!"

"What do you want?"

"Lu Xue’s seal object should be in your possession, I need that. And I also need a Flame Origin Stone."

"If you disagree, you can run away now."

Liang Hui nodded, stood straight, and grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.

"Your terms, I accept them, do not let me down."

"Just as you’ve said."

As his words fell,

He turned around!

And walked out of the study.

Meanwhile, a deep voice followed from behind Liang Hui’s departing figure.

"My recent residence should not be hard for the Huang Family to find."

"I hope, when we meet again, we can still converse with smiles."

With a few words, Liang Hui had already disappeared from the study.

At this moment, sitting in the higher position, Elder Huang’s expression of concern could no longer be concealed.

"Xiao Wu, don’t be confused about this matter!"

"Don’t worry, big brother, as long as everything is as he says, why would I do something so despicable?"

Elsewhere.

Liang Hui was already rushing on the road to the western courtyard of the city.

It didn’t take long for him to arrive at his own dilapidated courtyard.

He strode into the house, found a clean spot, and sat down cross-legged.

He began to take stock of the spoils from the recent fight.

The Flame Thunder spear on his back was originally his, so it did not count as spoils; the silver plate full of cracks would also be given to that woman if everything went smoothly.

A khaki shield with a hole through the middle was the Lu Family Head’s life-saving item, but it was damaged, and it was uncertain if it could be repaired.

Moreover, from the Lu Family Head’s storage space, he obtained a spear technique book named "Vermilion Bird Four Strikes."

Although the name was imposing, after a simple browse, it was just a Martial Arts Classic that could be cultivated to the Blood Refinement Level, and it also couldn’t "enter dreams."

However, he could attempt to adapt the spear techniques for his fist, and the Vermilion Bird, or Fire Bird, would still be of great help for the path of his fist technique.

As for the white-dressed woman Lu Xue’s storage necklace, there were just some clothes, simple food, and some medicinal pills whose uses were unknown.

The biggest gain should be her ’hairpin’—an item that could "enter dreams."

Regarding losses, the nearly snapped into two halves blue incense burner was probably unusable now.

Fortunately, in the Leiji City secret realm, he had snatched a five-layer Little Tower from the Lan Family, which had similar suppression and protection capabilities.

So overall, this fight had been profitable for him.

After taking stock of the spoils, Liang Hui took out a large amount of materials for replenishing Qi-Blood from his storage space and consumed them.

The Inner Strength and Qi-Blood consumed in his body were rapidly recovering.

By late night, his Qi-Blood had mostly recovered, and without hesitation, he immediately started the Marrow Refining Level cultivation.

He was already extremely close to the Refining Viscera Realm and planned to break through within a day’s time.

The enhancement of his strength would allow him to deal with anything more calmly.

.....

While Liang Hui was preparing for the breakthrough in his Martial Path,

the major families within Yongning City had also received the news of the Lu Family’s annihilation.

Some celebrated wildly, while others were apprehensive.

All made their own responses, closely watching the movements of the official forces.

In the first half of the night, the officials dispatched a large number of personnel to search, even including Refining Viscera Warriors.

During the latter half of the night, the number of people sent out by the officials to search gradually decreased, until there were only five or six left.

Fragrance Pavilion, fourth floor.

In the secret room, four figures draped in red robes were talking with each other.

"Wang Yi and those four guys are dead. Their bodies were found outside an abandoned temple a thousand miles away."

"Who did it, considering those four were all at the Marrow Refining Level?"

"If we investigate the people who have passed by the temple during this period, we will eventually find out."

A voice somewhat reveling in schadenfreude echoed in the secret room.

However, no one pointed out that within the Red Lotus Sect, the disciples were never known for living in peace and harmony.

Instead, they were full of competition and betrayal, all in the hope of gaining more resources and status.

"Let’s put that aside for now. Does anyone have any clues about the Lu Family’s annihilation?"

The one speaking was a woman with a delicate and graceful figure, who carried herself with nobility and ease.

"The Hidden Fire Shop was also slaughtered at the time of the Lu Family’s extermination. Could there be a connection between the two incidents?"

"My people infiltrated in the Lu Family are all dead, and no useful information has been transmitted."

"Subordinates placed within the officials have sent news, saying the City Lord personally ordered a temporary halt to the search."

Amidst the babble, a wealth of information and leads converged in the woman’s mind.
