Chapter 140: Chapter 140: From Now On, You Are the First in Nearly a Century

At two in the afternoon, a group of people arrived at the Lu Family estate.

True to its reputation as one of the Six Great Peaks, the Lu Family estate was much larger than that of the Su Family.

Not only was the area larger, but the architecture was also more imposing, with even the main hall being two stories high.

By now, clusters of people had already gathered on the mountain top, all clearly members of the Goo Clan here to attend the conference.

"Lu Xiao, that’s the Situ Family," Su Qin suddenly pointed out, standing beside Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao was slightly startled, then swiftly turned to look at Su Qin.

What did she mean?

How did Su Qin know that he was seeking revenge against the Situ Family?

She couldn’t possibly know his true background? Impossible.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Qin was also puzzled, observing the sharpness in Lu Xiao’s gaze.

"Your godmother comes from the Situ Family," Su Qin added another sentence.

Lu Xiao was taken aback. Liu Mingshu came from the Situ Family?

"You didn’t know?" Seeing the expression on Lu Xiao’s face, Su Qin was equally surprised.

She had thought that Liu Mingshu had already told Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao’s eyes gradually narrowed. He had roughly guessed that Liu Mingshu was from the Goo Clan; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to suppress Su Yan.

But he had never considered that Liu Mingshu was actually from the Situ Family.

So, Liu Mingshu already knew about his identity.

After all, he had shown her the photos of his parents.

If Liu Mingshu was from the Situ Family, she must have recognized his mother.

No wonder her attitude changed after he took out the photos, and she even inexplicably acknowledged a godson.

"Does she have a high status in the Situ Family?" Lu Xiao inquired.

"It seems she really hasn’t told you. Your godmother left the Situ Family over twenty years ago," Su Qin sighed.

If Liu Mingshu had still been with the Situ Family, she might have reached the level of Heavenly Man by now.

You know, even after living over twenty years outside, in a situation completely devoid of resources, Liu Mingshu had still made breakthroughs.

"Over twenty years, huh?" Lu Xiao muttered.

Was it because of his mother’s death?

"Why did she leave the Situ Family?"

"I’m not quite sure what happened, but it’s said that it had something to do with her sister, Situ Xin," Su Qin shrugged. The Situ Family had two Heavenly Men; who would dare to pry into their secrets?

Lu Xiao’s mouth fell open. Liu Mingshu was actually his mother’s own elder sister!

No wonder she had started doing everything she could to be good to him after discovering his background.

"Actually, your godmother didn’t want you to have any contact with the Goo Clan," Su Qin suddenly said.

Lu Xiao paused for half a second, then understood Liu Mingshu’s intentions.

She was probably afraid that he would seek vengeance against the Lu and Situ Families.

She also feared that his identity might be exposed, leading to being hunted by the Lu and Situ Families.

"Before you came with me, she had come to see me. She hoped that I wouldn’t bring you into the Su Family, and for this, she was even willing to go to the Su Family herself and become a Guest Elder."

"Honestly, Lu Xiao, I kind of envy you," Su Qin pursed her lips.

The way Liu Mingshu protected Lu Xiao reminded her of her own mother.

Unfortunately, her mother had died when she was only seven. Since then, she and her sister had always been bullied by other kids in the clan.

Lu Xiao also showed a hint of a smile.

It turned out that in this world, apart from his master, there were others who were good to him.

"By the way, how powerful is my godmother... my great aunt?" Lu Xiao almost let the words "great aunt" slip out, but thankfully caught himself in time.

"About the same, a Heavenly Man."

Lu Xiao: ⊙０⊙!!

That powerful?

"Just keep your happiness to yourself," Su Qin said with a curl of her lip.

Truth be told, even if Lu Xiao were useless, with the status of Liu Mingshu’s godson, the Su Family would have to cherish him.

"Your godmother is regarded as the leading figure of the Goo Clan in the past century, reaching Qi Early Stage at 23, Hua Jin at thirty. Many people grew up listening to her legendary tales."

Lu Xiao’s eyes shone brightly.

He had thought that upon joining the Goo Clan, he would be powerless thing from a poor family; little did he know, his backing was incredibly strong.

The leading figure of the Goo Clan in the past century—that title was seriously fierce.

"But now, this title of leading figure for the past century might just pass to you," Su Qin looked at Lu Xiao with passionate eyes.

Liu Mingshu had reached the Qi Early Stage at age 23, while Lu Xiao was nearly at the Peak of Qi at the same age!

Su Qin was almost unable to hold back; she couldn’t wait to see the crazed expressions on the faces of the major clans when they witnessed Lu Xiao’s strength.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Just then, a robust voice rang out.
