Chapter 530: Chapter 550: Kidnapping Her Husband and Sending Him to the Five Dragon Sect _1

Liu Family Mansion.

The hall was full of people, in the middle were a group of Liu Family’s Grandmasters, and behind them were many more. Liu Neng, the family head, sat on the central sofa with a solemn expression.

"The events have happened like this: both Ancestral Masters have now died, and the Liu Family’s strength has plummeted. Today, I have gathered everyone to discuss what we should do next..."

After Liu Neng finished speaking, his gaze swept over the people, and as expected, he saw many dissatisfied and angry looks.

"For the sake of a son-in-law, you caused the death of our two Ancestral Masters. They were the pillars of our Liu Family. Neng, you were wrong in this matter."

"Indeed, for the sake of your daughter, you accepted Chu Tianyu. Your decision wasn’t wrong considering Lin Chen’s strength back then, as a newly advanced Grandmaster wouldn’t be a threat to our Liu Family. However, after the Wang Family’s destruction, you should have paid more attention, since Lin Chen eradicated Wang Lurong along with four Innate Grandmasters!"

"Chu Jiaxue is Lin Chen’s wife, even if you kill her, what then? Are you going to wait for Lin Chen to bring four Innate Grandmasters to eradicate the Liu family?"

"Lin Chen is indeed wanted by the Five Dragon Order, but being wanted doesn’t mean he’s dead. Moreover, because he’s wanted, his actions may become more extreme and crazier. Can the Liu Family truly withstand that?"

Liu Neng was at a loss for words because everyone was right.

Although he had done so for the Liu family’s dignity and not for Chu Tianyu, who would care about his original intentions under such circumstances?

Both Ancestral Masters had agreed to take action to defend the Liu Family’s dignity. Otherwise, how could they have rushed over and taken action so quickly? Unfortunately, dead people cannot speak, so Liu Neng had no choice but to shoulder the blame by himself.

Liu Neng said solemnly, "I will take responsibility for this matter, but the news of the two Ancestral Masters’ deaths cannot be concealed for long. We must make all necessary preparations before the news spreads, otherwise, our Liu Family may suffer even greater losses ..."

Everyone thought it was true. After all, without the Zhenhai Divine Needle, an Innate Grandmaster could now eradicate the entire Liu Family. Which cultivation family doesn’t have enemies? Wouldn’t those enemies seize the opportunity to trample on them once they found out about it?

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, the housekeeper, his hands wrapped in white cloth, rushed in with a pale face. The sound of his footsteps immediately caught everyone’s attention.

Liu Neng saw the housekeeper’s face and felt a sinking feeling in his heart: "What’s the matter? Why the panic?"

The housekeeper anxiously replied, "Lin Chen is here."

"Lin Chen!"

"What is he here for?"

It was as if a scoop of water was poured into boiling oil, causing the whole room to explode.

Liu Neng’s face also changed dramatically, "Is Chu Jiaxue with him?"

The housekeeper shook his head, "Just him."

The crowd was immediately filled with suspicious expressions, looking at each other with uncertainty.

"This is Xijing, and it’s only thirty miles away from the Five Dragon Sect. It takes at most half an hour to get here. He is wanted by the Five Dragon Order, so why would he come here so brazenly? Isn’t he afraid of being captured by the Five Dragon Sect?"

"Yeah, he’s been missing for so long, why would he suddenly appear now?"

"Isn’t he afraid of the Five Dragon Sect?"

Great Grandmaster Liu Kefeng suddenly suggested, "Weren’t we just discussing our future path? Without an Innate Grandmaster, we will definitely be suppressed by others. We must find a strong backer. I think the Five Dragon Sect is a good choice. With their six Innate Grandmasters, their strength is formidable. Moreover, Guo Tang’s combat power is superb; who would dare to provoke them?"

Others asked, "Why would the Five Dragon Sect protect our Liu Family?"

"Lin Chen!"

Liu Kefeng did not hesitate to say, "Isn’t the Five Dragon Sect hunting for Lin Chen? They promised that whoever captures Lin Chen will receive heavy rewards. If we offer Lin Chen as a gift to the Five Dragon Sect, and ask them to protect our Liu Family, even if our two Ancestral Masters are gone, who would dare to provoke the Five Dragon Sect? Wouldn’t our Liu Family be safe then?"

"Moreover, Guo Tang isn’t particularly interested in power, and he won’t exploit and oppress our Liu Family too much because of our reliance. Given time, if someone from our Liu Family can break through to the Innate level, we can slowly regain our breath..."

Liu Neng coldly asked, "What about Chu Jiaxue? If we tie up her husband and send him to the Five Dragon Sect, do you think she will come back to kill our entire family?"

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

Liu Kefeng thought for a moment, "Chu Jiaxue was just here yesterday, and Chu Tianyu is dead. Their grudges have been settled, so why would Lin Chen come again today? There might be some issues in between. Why don’t we let him in and ask him, and then decide what to do?"

Liu Neng also thought it was right. They had to clarify Lin Chen’s intentions first.

"Let him in."

Under the housekeeper’s guidance, Lin Chen soon entered the hall. At a glance, he saw a room full of people and was stunned for a moment, "Are you having a meeting?"

Liu Neng did not answer, stared at Lin Chen, and asked, "What are you here for?"

Lin Chen smiled, "You must be the Liu family’s head, right? Your son-in-law has some old grudges with me, and I have no intention of making enemies with the Liu Family. So I wanted to come and talk to the Liu family, hoping that the Liu family will not interfere in me settling these old grudges."

Liu Neng’s gaze changed and became somewhat eerie, "Chu Tianyu?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, I heard he married into your Liu family. I think you shouldn’t care too much about a son-in-law, right?"

The eyes of everyone in the room changed.

It seemed that Lin Chen didn’t know that Chu Jiaxue killed Chu Tianyu at the Liu Family yesterday. So did that mean Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue had no contact?
