Chapter 14: Chapter 14 The Actions of the Lu Family

Lu Family, ancestral shrine.

"Do you know where Lu Chen is now?"

Having settled Lu Zhan’s ashes, Lu Changkong turned his head and coldly asked the group of elders behind him.

Among them were his own brothers, as well as his cousins.

All were close relatives in the same lineage.

And in fact, Lu Chen was also his nephew.

"We haven’t found him yet," Lu Changming stepped forward, forcing a bitter smile, "the boy is extremely cunning, always squeezing into crowds. He’s familiar with Yuzhou City, and our men lost him after not following for long."

"Useless, all of you are useless, get out, get out!"

Lu Changkong furiously swept the table clean of offerings.

These had only been set up for his son to enjoy, but now they were scattered all over the floor.

The elders took the opportunity to leave, each secretly taking pleasure in the misfortune.

If Lu Changkong continued like this, the position of family head could fall to them...

But right now, they hadn’t completely band together, and it wasn’t the right time to voice certain things.

Therefore, Lu Changkong’s order to find Lu Chen still needed to be carried out.

Ideally, after finding Lu Chen, Lu Changkong would personally take action. That way, he would make a grave mistake, and everyone could naturally force him to abdicate!

Outside the ancestral shrine, Lu Changming took the initiative to say, "Lu Chen has brought shame to our Lu Family, and it’s time to stop holding back. Use whatever means you have, and find Lu Chen quickly!"

"Indeed, we can’t kill Lu Chen within Yuzhou City, but he will eventually leave!"

"Killing him is the only way to restore some of our Lu Family’s honor, so..."

The last person only said half a sentence, but the rest was clear to everyone!

Under these circumstances, in just half a day’s time, someone discovered that Lu Chen had taken Qin Yaotiao and checked into the most luxurious inn in Yuzhou City!

That night.

The elders gathered again.

"Patriarch, we have all confirmed it, Lu Chen and his maidservant are staying in the Tianzi Number One room at Yu Pavilion!"

"Also, we have arranged for a Bone Refinement Realm guard from the Lu Family to keep a watch!"

"Any slight movement will be rapidly reported!"

Lu Changkong’s eyes were bloodshot, his gaze voracious.

"Keep watching him. Remember not to act within Yuzhou City; otherwise, no one can bear the consequences!"

These words left the elders greatly disappointed, each pondering how they might provoke Lu Changkong to act recklessly.

...

Inside the room of the Yu Pavilion.

Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, deeply immersed in cultivation.

He knew better than anyone that to him, the Lu Family was a wolf in hiding, while Xu Yueru was a tiger in plain sight!

His cooperation with Xu Yueru was like seeking skin from a tiger; the slightest misstep could lead to him being devoured whole by this tiger!

The only thing to do at this moment was to cultivate as quickly as possible, not only to maintain a full reserve of spiritual power but also to practice a few more spear techniques!

This was also his purpose for checking into the Tianzi Number One room of the Yu Pavilion!

It was spacious enough for him to practice the movements of the Heavenly Inquiry Spear Technique!

It was quiet enough for him to focus on Qi Refinement, conserving spiritual power.

It was also conducive to focusing and comprehending the intricacies of the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique!

Qin Yaotiao did not disturb Lu Chen, she just quietly sat at the doorway, resting her chin in her hands, watching Lu Chen.

She sat there all night long.

And Lu Chen had discovered a brand new application for the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique!

Previously, he had always used both eyes simultaneously, but spiritual power had only been channelled into the left eye.

Now, finding himself in a completely safe environment, he pondered the critical point.

If there was only a single pupil, what if I looked with only one eye?

With this thought, Lu Chen closed his right eye and looked towards Qin Yaotiao.

Having sat still all night, Qin Yaotiao was drowsy, swaying back and forth. Every movement she made was incredibly clear.

This was much clearer than using both eyes together!

Feeling elated, Lu Chen then poured spiritual power into his left eye once more!

In an instant, the light before him brightened, and the air was filled with more circulating spiritual power, following Qin Yaotiao’s teetering body as it swayed.

"As I expected, if I close one eye during a fight in the future, the effect will be even better! And in times that aren’t too dire, I can also reduce the use of spiritual power!"

Lu Chen dispersed the spiritual power, and although using just his left eye to see was clearer, he was somewhat unaccustomed to it.

He thought about it, and decided he needed to bind his left eye with an eye patch when he had nothing else to do.

While contemplating this, he didn’t start practicing with the spear but instead walked to the window and pushed it open.

Under his pupil’s gaze, several awkwardly moving, bulky martial artists came into view!

"Warriors from the Lu Family!"

Lu Chen inhaled sharply!

If it had been before, he might not have recognized them.

But now, with his pupil skill, his memory of faces had also become much clearer!

If he remembered correctly, these people...

They were likely the Hidden Guards nurtured by Lu Changkong, specifically tasked with doing unsavory deeds!

Moreover, not only were they quite strong, but their style of action was even more ruthless!

No doubt, these people were here for him!
