Chapter 190: Chapter 190: A Double-Standard Old Dog

Situ Changkong and Situ Yan retreated, marking a temporary conclusion to the strife between the Heavenly Man clans.

Of course, the onlookers hadn’t left at all.

After all, the grudge between Lu Xiao and the Lu Family was far from being resolved.

"Lu Tiankou is definitely going to die."

"It’s just not clear how Lu Xiao plans to deal with the Lu Family."

"What else can you do with a blood feud of patricide? He’s certain to kill them all."

"That may be, but at the end of the day, Lu Xiao is, after all, Lu Zheng’s son, and his blood, ultimately, belongs to the Lu Family."

Hearing the surrounding discussion, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but let out a snort of derision.

My blood belongs to the Lu Family?

Sorry, but I’ve been an orphan since childhood, taken in by my master while still in swaddling clothes. I really don’t see any usefulness in this so-called bloodline.

All I know is, the Lu Family killed my father and mother, and I must have my revenge.

"Lu Tiankou, are you dead yet?" Lu Xiao looked over at Lu Tiankou.

Lu Tiankou struggled to his feet.

"True to a Heavenly Man, a dog’s life is indeed stubborn," Lu Xiao huffed coldly.

I thought that last hit would have taken Lu Tiankou’s life, but this old bastard was still hanging on.

"Come on, first kneel and kowtow," Lu Xiao said, rummaging in his clothes and pulling out two exquisitely crafted wooden ancestral tablets.

One belonged to Lu Zheng, and the other to Situ Xin.

He had carved them by hand during the days he spent recovering from his injuries.

Seeing Lu Xiao pull out the tablets of his parents and demanding that Lu Tiankou kneel, many couldn’t help but bare their teeth, thinking how Lu Xiao was truly vengeful to the core!

For all these years, Lu Zheng had been regarded as a disgrace by the Lu Family.

It was said that upon Lu Zheng’s death, even his name was expunged from the family genealogy.

"Impossible!" Lu Tiankou snorted angrily, "I am the Lu Family’s Supreme Elder; how can I kneel to a disgrace!"

Hearing the word "disgrace," the muscles around Lu Xiao’s eyes twitched uncontrollably, and he lashed out with two swift kicks.

Two shards of broken stone whistled toward Lu Tiankou’s knees.

By then, Lu Tiankou standing up was already pushing his limits, leaving no strength to evade.

With two thuds, the broken stones smashed into his knees.

The next moment, Lu Tiankou’s knees hit the ground with a thud.

"If I say kneel, you kneel—what’s with all the nonsense!"

"Not just you, every living member of the Lu Family needs to kneel! Anyone who doesn’t will be killed," Lu Xiao said, extending his hand toward the remaining members of the Lu Family.

"Nobody kneels!" Lu Tiankou suddenly roared, "The fact that Lu Zheng disregarded clan rules and consorted with Situ Xin is true. We, the Lu Family, have done nothing wrong."

As soon as Lu Tiankou finished speaking, Lu Xiao charged at him, delivering a heavy slap to his face.

"Consorted? I’ll give you another chance to choose your words carefully," Lu Xiao said, his eyes narrowing.

"Even if you kill me, my words would be the same! The Lu Family has done no wrong!" Lu Tiankou spat out a mouthful of bloody sputum, ready to face death.

Lu Xiao was infuriated to the point of laughter, planting his foot firmly on Lu Tiankou’s chest.

Lu Tiankou fell back to the ground, coughing up yet more blood.

"It’s utterly ridiculous! Utterly shameless!"

"So my parents being together broke rules and brought disgrace, but your collaboration with the Situ Family to annihilate the Xuanyuan Clan didn’t?"

"A hypocritical old cur, still daring to speak of right and wrong to me?!"

Lu Xiao pressed his foot against Lu Tiankou’s chest, applying pressure increasingly heavy and fierce.

"I... in collaborating with the Situ Family, I did it for the Lu Family, to preserve us!" Lu Tiankou continued to defend.

Lu Xiao no longer wanted to listen to Lu Tiankou’s inane prattle. Since you think you’re always right, why don’t you go and reason with Yama King and see if he’ll grant you mercy and send you back to Earth?

Feeling the escalating force and cruelty of Lu Xiao’s trampling, Lu Tiankou finally panicked.

"Lu Xiao... I, I... I can have your name entered into the family genealogy."

"And your father’s too—yes, Lu Zheng’s name can be reinstated as well," he pleaded.

Lu Xiao looked down at Lu Tiankou, his eyes filled with scorn. Join the family genealogy? Do you think I care?

"Any last words?" Lu Xiao’s tone was icy.

Lu Tiankou’s eyes widened in horror. Last... last words?

"If not, then go ahead and die."

"Lu..." Lu Tiankou had something more to say, but before he could speak, Lu Xiao’s heavy stomp came down brutally on his throat.

There was a sickening snap.

Lu Tiankou’s neck broke instantly.

After a brief struggle, Lu Tiankou stopped breathing.

"This kid’s got grit; he’s destined for great things," Xuanyuan Qiankun couldn’t help but praise him inwardly.

"If the Xuanyuan Clan had someone like Lu Xiao in charge, tsk, the Situ Family would be too terrified to even twitch," Xuanyuan Qiankun thought, another idea forming in his mind.

Not that Xuanyuan Tonglu lacked the capability, in fact, he was doing an exceptional job as Sect Leader, and the entire Xuanyuan Clan held him in high regard.

But Tonglu, this kid, lacked a certain dominance, missing the temperament of a ruthless leader.
