622: Chapter 582: Sky Martial Sect Elder_1 622: Chapter 582: Sky Martial Sect Elder_1 In the bamboo forest, Zhao Changjun looked at Lu Ming before him and felt somewhat bewildered for a moment.

“What?

Lu Chuan?

Who is Lu Chuan?”

“Think again, the person you saw in the bamboo forest today when you arrived!”

Zhao Changjun was stunned for a moment, and after seriously pondering with furrowed brows, he suddenly remembered something.

When he encountered Hua Qianwu today, among the people before him, there was only one man.

That man was likely Lu Chuan.

“The one you want to kill is that guy, is he very strong?”

Lu Ming nodded slightly, “He is very strong, and he has many tactics.

I mainly lost because I didn’t understand my opponent.

Given another chance, I will definitely take his head.”

“But now, having lost one hand, I’m afraid it’s going to be much harder.

However, no matter what, I must kill him; otherwise, I would have no face to return!”

He clenched his teeth, having made up his mind that no matter what, he must accomplish his mission; if he returned in defeat, it would be too humiliating!

“But you couldn’t beat him when you had both hands, and now that you have lost one, aren’t you even less of a match?”

Lu Ming looked up and glared at him.

Although these words made him feel somewhat uncomfortable, upon further thought, he realized they weren’t completely unreasonable.

He sighed helplessly, “However, I still have a way.”

“In Flower City, I still have some influence.

Once I return, I’ll ally with several forces to scheme against that guy.

I will definitely find an opportunity to kill him!”

He asserted confidently.

When he was in Flower City, he had built a considerable amount of prestige and sent many nobles who did not support the Lu family to their doom.

Therefore, now that he was returning to Flower City, many great powers from distinguished families would heed his command.

“Just wait, in the territory of Flower City, my strength is greater than yours!”

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and said, as he looked down at his missing left hand, his heart filled with resentment.

…

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan and the others had returned to the Hua Family Manor, and it was already the latter half of the night.

Hua Tao greeted them at the entrance, welcoming their return.

Upon learning that they had obtained the second material, the Spirit Communication Bamboo, Hua Tao immediately laughed with excitement, praising Lu Chuan repeatedly.

Lu Chuan merely exchanged a few pleasantries before heading to his study to sleep.

After returning to his room, Lu Chuan fell asleep immediately, and when he woke up the next day, it was already past nine in the morning.

After getting up and washing up, Lu Chuan went to the courtyard to have breakfast.

Today, Flower City was even more turbulent.

Not only had Lu Ming from the Lu family arrived in Flower City, but another special individual had also come to the city.

At that moment, at the entrance of the Xu Family Manor, Xu Shenghua stood with the Xu family members in line, their faces full of hopeful expectation as they looked toward the end of the street.

Soon, a carriage drove down the street heading their way.

Xu Shenghua’s face immediately revealed an excited smile.

Before long, the carriage arrived at the manor’s entrance, and Xu Shenghua watched it with a face full of reverence.

Soon after, an old man in a white robe stepped down and walked towards Xu Shenghua and the others.

The white-robed elder was none other than the Third Elder of the Sky Martial Sect!

Upon his arrival, all of the Xu family members bowed deeply and respectfully shouted, “We warmly welcome the Third Elder Huang Yueqing of the Sky Martial Sect to the Xu family.

We have been awaiting your arrival for a long time!”

Huang Yueqing approached Xu Shenghua, a faint smile on his face.

“Family Head Xu, let’s go inside and talk.”

Xu Shenghua bowed his head, not daring to look directly at Elder Huang, and said in a deep voice, “Of course, this way please.”

Immediately, everyone returned to the Xu Family Manor together.

Upon reaching the Council Hall, Xu Shenghua reverently ushered Huang Yueqing to take the seat of honor.

“Elder Huang graces us with his presence, and we regret not being fully prepared.

How about I host a celebration banquet to welcome you?”

Huang Yueqing waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to trouble yourself.

I am here firstly to inquire how my disciple is doing?”

“Secondly, I want to ask about the whereabouts of the Divine Tree branch.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Shenghua nervously swallowed.

“Your disciple Bai Ye…

he…

he is no longer here.”

Huang Yueqing asked, “No longer here?

What do you mean?

Explain clearly, don’t try to fool me.

In this Flower City, couldn’t my disciple be influential and powerful?”

“Bai Ye…

he’s dead!”

Xu Shenghua said in a heavy voice, lowering his head, not daring to meet Huang Yueqing’s gaze.

Upon hearing these words, Huang Yueqing’s weathered face darkened; clenching his teeth, he said gravely, “Are you speaking the truth?

My disciple Bai Ye died here?

In this insignificant Flower City, are there really that many people who could be his match?”

Xu Shenghua trembled with nervousness, still not daring to look up at Huang Yueqing, feeling an intense killing intent emanating from him that made him shiver.

“The man who killed him is called Lu Chuan, and he is indeed the one possessing the Divine Tree branch.”

Huang Yueqing’s face grew ugly, “I heard that this person grew up in the secular world, that his Martial Path cultivation should not be so exquisite; he should be nothing but a half-baked practitioner.”

“Why has my disciple Bai Ye, an outstanding member of the Sky Martial Sect, lost to such an individual?”

Xu Shenghua was at a loss for words when asked this question.

“It’s just that this fellow named Lu Chuan, his strength was truly too formidable, absolutely overpowering Bai Ye.”

Huang Yueqing let out a long sigh and slammed the armrest of the chair.

“Are you telling me the truth?

If he used some kind of trick or deceitful tactic, I might have been able to take it a bit better.”

“This is the truth!

He indeed killed Bai Ye head-on.”

After hearing this, Huang Yueqing completely sighed, feeling somewhat disheartened.

His own disciple had been killed, and naturally, as a master, he was very displeased.

But soon, this displeasure turned into anger!

“Where is this bastard Lu Chuan now?”

“I want to kill him and avenge my disciple, and also, I must personally retrieve the branch he carries!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Shenghua immediately became active.

As long as they could obtain the branch from Lu Chuan’s hands, then the Xu family would still have the chance to surpass the Hua family and become the leading force of Flower City.

“This fellow named Lu Chuan, he is currently within the Hua Family Manor, as long as we search for him, we will definitely find him!”

Huang Yueqing shouted angrily, “The Hua family?

This bastard is working for the Hua family, and since that’s the case, then I’ll deal with the Hua family as well!”

He stood up, storming out with rage in his heart, wishing to vent his fury right then and there.

Xu Shenghua saw how angry he was and his heart blossomed with joy.

If he directly annihilated the Hua family, then it would save time and trouble, and the Xu family could immediately become the preeminent aristocratic family of Flower City.

Just as Huang Yueqing was about to leave the Council Hall’s entrance, suddenly, a figure blocked his path.

“Who is it?”

“I am Lu Ming, from the Lu family.”
