Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Only One of Us Can Return Alive to the Su Family

The second half of the event saw exchanges among young talents from various clans, but there was an age restriction—only those over forty could participate.

For those under forty, even within the Heavenly Man Clan, at most only one or two were at the Early Stage of Hua Realm.

Lu Xiao was also in the Early Stage of Hua Realm and might very well take first place again.

With that, the Su Family could gain an additional thirty percent of resources; adding that to the existing twenty percent made it fifty percent—hell, they were practically set to soar.

"Wang Jun, give your spot to Lu Xiao," Su Tianzhen scanned the room and then pointed at Wang Jun.

Wang Jun’s expression immediately darkened.

But he didn’t dare say much since he didn’t have the guts to talk back to Su Tianzhen.

And even if he did raise an objection, it would be useless; Lu Xiao’s strength was just too damn outrageous.

"It seems you’re not too happy, are you?" Lu Xiao, noticing Wang Jun’s hostile gaze, couldn’t help but ask.

Ever since he had arrived at the Su Family, it was Wang Jun who had targeted him during the testing phase.

Although it hadn’t caused him any trouble, when someone pushes you too far, you can’t just stay silent and take the bullying.

Everyone turned their eyes towards Wang Jun, and even Su Tianzhen slightly frowned—were there conflicts between Wang Jun and Lu Xiao?

Lu Xiao might have a fierce approach in combat, but he was generally good-natured in his dealings.

In the last few days at the Su Family, he hadn’t stirred up any trouble.

He even inquired from those in charge of his daily needs who practically sang praises of Lu Xiao, commenting on his amicable and good-natured demeanor.

So, Lu Xiao suddenly snapping at Wang Jun clearly indicated some enmity between them.

"Wang Jun, do you have a problem?" Su Tianzhen looked at Wang Jun, his gaze somewhat sharp.

Lu Xiao was now a precious gem, a rare talent coveted by all major Heavenly Man clans.

Wang Jun, you’d better behave because whether it’s your fault or Lu Xiao’s, in my eyes... it’s your fault.

"Great Elder, I have no objections," Wang Jun took a deep breath and bowed in response.

"Don’t tell me, tell Lu Xiao," Su Tianzhen snorted, resolved not to let anything make Lu Xiao unhappy.

Wang Jun clenched his fists tightly, nearly exploding in rage.

Old Su is overdoing it!

But ultimately, Wang Jun turned to face Lu Xiao, his tone grave, "I have no objections."

"If you’re going to say it, say it properly. Come on, say ’I, Wang Jun, have no objections to Lu Xiao taking my place,’" Lu Xiao raised an eyebrow, as if a lightly stated ’no objections’ was supposed to suffice?

Don’t think I don’t know—when it was time to go into the furnace, you even conspired with Su Pingping to take my life.

"Lu Xiao!" Wang Jun suddenly looked up.

If looks could kill, Lu Xiao would have been butchered into pieces by Wang Jun’s glare.

"Old Su, look at him, he definitely wants me dead," Lu Xiao said to Su Tianzhen.

Su Tianzhen was silent for two seconds, then nodded.

Lu Xiao’s words weren’t incorrect; Wang Jun naturally had a sinister nature, and now humiliated by Lu Xiao, how could he not wish Lu Xiao dead!

It seems that when we get back to the Su Family, we’ll have to send Wang Jun packing.

Wang Jun’s mother belongs to the Su Family, and his father is from the neighboring Wang Family; sending Wang Jun back to the Wang Family shouldn’t be a problem.

"Alright, I’ll say it!" Suddenly, Wang Jun yelled out.

Su Tianzhen’s previous look clearly indicated he wanted to chase him back to the Wang Family.

How could that work! If he went back to the Wang Family, how would he ever kill that bastard, Lu Xiao?

If backing down is what it takes, then so be it, Lu Xiao, just you wait—I swear, if I don’t kill you, I’m not a true Wang!

"I, Wang Jun, have no objections to Lu Xiao taking my place."

"Okay, is that satisfactory?" Wang Jun asked through gritted teeth.

"Say it three times," Lu Xiao shrugged.

Wang Jun’s mentality nearly shattered.

Even Su Tianzhen’s facial muscles couldn’t help but twitch; he had no clue what the feud between Lu Xiao and Wang Jun was about, but it was clear that Lu Xiao was gunning for a death feud.

But Su Tianzhen said nothing; Wang Jun was, after all, insignificant.

"I, Wang Jun, have no objections to Lu Xiao taking my place."

"I, Wang Jun, have no objections to Lu Xiao taking my place!"

Ultimately, Wang Jun added the phrase two more times.

After finishing, Wang Jun felt as though every vein in his body was seething with fury; he had never hated someone so intensely his entire life!

"Lu Xiao, between you and me, only one will return to the Su Family alive," Wang Jun glared fiercely at Lu Xiao, silently making a vow.
