Chapter 165: Chapter 165: It was you who killed him

Lu Yanwu’s eyes widened in disbelief; she could never have anticipated that Qin Chuan would dare speak to her this way in front of Grandfather.

After all, the Lu Family was one of the top-ranked noble houses among the Nine Gates of Yandu. Who within East Sea Province would dare to disrespect her?

Especially with her grandfather present.

To her, Qin Chuan’s words, "What can you do to me?" were nothing short of a provocation.

"Brat, you’ve got quite the nerve. If I don’t teach you a harsh lesson today, I’ll take your surname!"

As she spoke, Lu Yanwu stood up, charged towards Qin Chuan, and swung a slap at him.

The Lu family was a military lineage, and although Lu Yanwu was a woman, she was also a bona fide martial artist. Even though her strength was far from that of her brother Lu Yanfei, she was still a martial artist in the Dark Energy Initial Stage Realm.

If this slap landed on the face of an ordinary person, it would likely cause a concussion.

"Yan Wu, just teach him a lesson. Don’t be too harsh," her grandfather, Lu Yaozong, said lightly, implying he knew full well how powerful his granddaughter’s slap was.

He could have stopped her, but instead, he chose not to voice his objection, preferring to use this opportunity to teach the arrogant young man a lesson.

Murong Mingyue’s expression drastically changed as she exclaimed, "Lu Yanwu, don’t you dare!"

Her voice was tinged with anger. Qin Chuan was a VIP she had gone to great lengths to invite. It was understandable that Lu Yaozong, a prominent figure in his own right, might not be easily convinced, but she had not anticipated that Lu Yanwu would dare to strike Qin Chuan.

If Qin Chuan were to become truly angered, neither Lu Yaozong nor Lu Yanwu would know how they died; she had heard from Master Feng that Qin Chuan had killed an Energizing Skill Middle Stage Realm assassin in just one move.

Hearing the anger in Murong Mingyue’s voice, instead of stopping, Lu Yanwu intensified the force in her strike even further.

"You bastard, not only did you deceive Sister Qingwan, you also fooled Sister Mingyue. I will make sure you receive a lesson you’ll remember for life!" Lu Yanwu shouted furiously, her hand descending swiftly.

At that moment, Lu Yaozong’s expression changed dramatically as he shouted, "Yan Wu, stop!"

He had only intended for Lu Yanwu to teach Qin Chuan a lesson, but now, with Lu Yanwu’s anger flaring, he feared the slap could severely injure Qin Chuan.

However, his warning came too late; Lu Yanwu’s hand was only centimeters away from Qin Chuan’s face.

Qin Chuan’s gaze suddenly turned icy, and he bellowed, "Back off!"

"Bang!"

To Lu Yaozong’s astonishment, before her hand could touch Qin Chuan’s face, Lu Yanwu was blasted away by his thunderous roar.

"Pfft!"

Before Lu Yanwu could hit the floor, a mouthful of blood sprayed out, and with a "boom", she crashed heavily at Lu Yaozong’s feet.

Qin Chuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking down indifferently at Lu Yanwu on the ground and said, "You should be grateful this old man told you to stop, or else you would be a corpse now!"

Stunned, Lu Yanwu lay on the cold ground, blankly staring at the ceiling, unable to fathom her defeat — a crushing one at that — at the hands of someone her age, engulfing her in overwhelming grievance.

This jerk, didn’t he know to show mercy to the fairer sex?

She felt as if all her organs had shifted, particularly since her buttocks landed first when she fell. They were now burning with a throbbing pain.

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and large tears began to slide down from her eyes.

The martial artist in the Energizing Skill Initial Stage Realm who had been standing behind Lu Yaozong now wore a grave expression, his eyes sharp as a hawk’s, fixedly staring at Qin Chuan, ready to intervene at any moment.

Lu Yaozong, already shocked beyond measure, had an expression of utter disbelief plastered across his aged face.

After a long while, he couldn’t help but blurt out, "Internal Energy Release! You, you are an Energizing Skill Grandmaster?"

As a big shot at Shen Zhou Battle Domain Headquarters, what kind of Martial Path Genius hadn’t he seen?

But a twenty-five or twenty-six-year-old Energizing Skill Grandmaster, that was definitely a first for him.

Even the current number one power in Shen Zhou, the Sovereign Master, only entered Energizing Skill in the year he turned thirty.

Murong Mingyue couldn’t help herself and said, "Grandfather Lu, Mr. Qin is not just an Energizing Skill Strong, he is..."

Just as she was about to reveal that Qin Chuan was a King Realm Strong, Qin Chuan looked coldly at Lu Yaozong and said, "What does my level of strength have to do with you, old freak?"

He was genuinely angry. Previously in Ye Qingwan’s Rose Garden Villa, Lu Yanfei and Lu Yanwu had been disrespectful towards him, and if it hadn’t been for the fear of scaring Xiao Rou, he would have taught them a lesson right then and there.

"Kid, even if you are an Energizing Skill Grandmaster, you do not have the right to be arrogant in front of Elder Lu. Dare to speak out of turn again, and do not blame me for being rude to you!"

At this moment, the Energizing Skill Initial Stage Realm guard standing behind Lu Yaozong said coldly.

Qin Chuan’s gaze suddenly turned icy.

Lu Yaozong hurriedly scolded, "Wei Zhong, shut your mouth!"

Wei Zhong quickly closed his mouth, but when he looked at Qin Chuan, his eyes were filled with an intense battle intent.

"Young Brother Qin, I spoke rashly earlier, and if I have offended you, please do not take it to heart with this old man."

Lu Yaozong said with his hands clasped, his expression much softer.

When he looked at Qin Chuan again, his eyes were filled with admiration, and there was a hint of fervor deep within his gaze.

So young and already an Energizing Skill Grandmaster, if he could join the Azure Dragon Combat Team, he would be another top-tier powerhouse who could rival the Sovereign Master in the future.

Given enough time, surpassing the Sovereign Master wasn’t impossible.

Although he was responsible for the logistical support of Shen Zhou Battle Domain, he also had a quota to join the Azure Dragon Combat Team without assessment.

Even his own grandson, Lu Yanfei, had to pass the assessment of the Azure Dragon Combat Team before joining.

But now, he suddenly wanted to give that guaranteed spot to Qin Chuan.

Murong Mingyue, seeing Lu Yaozong in a predicament, looked smug.

Serve you right for not believing me, feeling regret now?

Qin Chuan accepted no apology from Lu Yaozong, instead, he said to Murong Mingyue, "It’s not that I don’t give you face, but they clearly look down on me. Since that’s the case, there’s no need for me to stay."

He didn’t have much of a good impression of Lu Yanwu in the first place, and having been belittled by Lu Yaozong, he had already lost any desire to collaborate with the Battle Domain.

While he did want to help Xiao Mengyi achieve her dreams, he wouldn’t humbly beg for cooperation.

Besides, with his medical skills, just taking out any prescription could help Xiao Mengyi’s Tianmei Pharmaceuticals stand at the pinnacle of the pharmaceutical world.

After hearing Qin Chuan’s words, Murong Mingyue had a bitter look on her face, knowing his true situation, she naturally didn’t dare to persuade him.

She helplessly glanced at Lu Yaozong, then said to Qin Chuan, "Mr. Qin, my apologies, let me take you back!"

As the two were about to leave, Lu Yaozong became anxious and quickly said, "Mr. Qin, please wait. It was all the old man’s mistake just now, as long as you can forgive me, I’ll do anything."

Before, he didn’t believe Qin Chuan could refine the Evergreen Pill and the Marrow-Cleansing Pill, but now, he believed it one hundred percent.

Qin Chuan paid him no attention and was just about to leave when a tremendous aura suddenly surged forth.

The next second, an old man in a green robe appeared ghostlike at the door, staring at Qin Chuan with murderous intent, "I was puzzled as to why the deaths of my two junior brothers were related to you, but now I understand, because you indeed have the power to kill them."

"Kid, come clean, did you or did you not kill my junior brothers?"
