Leaving Tianxia Mingchu, Lu Fan headed towards Jiangjing Bieyuan, leisurely along the way.
Just as he neared Jiangjing Bieyuan, blinding headlights suddenly shone from ahead. Four or five figures emerged from a car, holding weapons and with their faces masked.
Looking at the people before him, Lu Fan narrowed his eyes and let out a cold laugh. These people were clearly here for him.
In the blink of an eye, the men surrounded Lu Fan and said coldly, "Kid, this is your fate. Don't blame us when you're in the underworld!"
"Even if I die, I want to die knowing why!" Lu Fan chuckled, "Who sent you?"
"That's not something you need to know!"
The leader said coldly and immediately made his move. They were paid to eliminate trouble, and they wouldn't be negligent.
Unfortunately, before the man could strike with his weapon, Lu Fan sent him flying with a palm strike, sneering, "With just you lot, I doubt you can send me to the underworld!"
The others exchanged glances and lunged at Lu Fan, their eyes filled with ferocity.
They were all in this line of work. If they couldn't deal with Lu Fan, their reputation would suffer.
However, in Lu Fan's hands, these men were like playthings, not worth mentioning. In an instant, they were severely injured and turned to dust.
From a corner, Elder Qin watched the scene, his heart filled with shock. He had thought dealing with Lu Fan would be easy, but he never imagined Lu Fan possessed such strength.
"A martial artist, he's actually a martial artist!"
Elder Qin muttered. Just as he was about to flee, a voice rang out.
"Since you're here, why leave?"
In a flash, Lu Fan appeared before Elder Qin, like a ghost.
"You..." Elder Qin frowned, "What do you want?"
"You sent people to kill me, and now you ask what I want?"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"I know you're a martial artist, but this old man is also a person of martial arts!" Elder Qin threatened, "Young man, don't be arrogant!"
"Is that so?"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a leaf flew from his hand, instantly splitting a large tree in two. A powerful aura emanated from him.
"Grandmaster, these are the methods of a Grandmaster!"
Elder Qin was filled with astonishment, "How is this possible? You're so young, how can you be a Grandmaster!"
"Have you heard of Lord Lu of Jiangnan?" Lu Fan smiled faintly.
"You are Lord Lu of Jiangnan?"
Elder Qin knelt with a thud, "This humble one has eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai and offended Your Lordship. I beg Your Lordship to spare me!"
He never imagined that Lu Fan was the renowned Lord Lu of Jiangnan. If not for Lu Fan's Grandmaster-level abilities, he would never have believed that Lord Lu of Jiangnan could be so young.
"If others do not offend me, I will not offend them!" Lu Fan said coldly, "You wanted to kill me, how can I spare you!"
Elder Qin trembled violently, stood up, and ran backward, his heart filled with despair. Despite his strong will to survive, how could he escape from a Grandmaster?
He had barely taken a step when Elder Qin's body erupted in flames, turning into nothingness in an instant.
After finishing all this, Lu Fan walked towards Jiangjing Bieyuan as if nothing had happened.
He had been displeased with Li Qingwen at the banquet today. If it weren't for Shen Xiaoxiao's birthday, Lu Fan would have acted long ago. Now that they had come to his doorstep, how could Lu Fan be merciful?
As soon as he returned to Jiangjing Bieyuan, Lu Fan smelled the aroma of food. Lin Xiaojia took off his chef's uniform and hurried, "My Lord, you're back?"
"Don't call me 'My Lord' anymore!" Lu Fan said softly, "Call me Brother Lu. I promised Granny Viper that I wouldn't let you suffer any grievances, and you are not my subordinate!" Su Dan Novel Network
"This..." Lin Xiaojia hesitated. Lu Fan had helped him too much. His heart was filled with reverence and boundless gratitude.
"What, you're not even listening to me now!" Lu Fan said displeased.
"Of course not," Lin Xiaojia said quickly, "Brother Lu!"
"That's right!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly and looked at the table full of dishes, "I haven't eaten either, let's all eat together!"
Lin Xiaojia also nodded quickly. He had prepared this meal all afternoon, waiting for Lu Fan's return.
"I sense a bit of internal energy in you. It seems your tribal bloodline is indeed extraordinary!" Lu Fan stated directly, "With time, you will surely avenge your loved ones!"
"If not for Brother Lu, I would have been beheaded long ago!"
Lin Xiaojia said solemnly, "When I achieve great success, I will repay this great kindness!"
"Look at you, here you go again!" Lu Fan rolled his eyes.
At this moment, Han Yunhai and Gu Wen also arrived, their faces beaming with smiles.
"What happened? You're so happy?" Lu Fan glanced at them, "Did you find some miraculous elixir?"
"My Lord, after confirmation, we have found the Yang family!" Han Yunhai stated directly, "There should be no mistake!"
Lu Fan stopped eating, his expression changing. In this world, besides the Lu family, his closest relatives were his maternal family.
If the Lu family hadn't been destroyed back then, the Yang family wouldn't have been scattered. Now that they had been found, how could Lu Fan not go?
"What is the situation of the Yang family?"
"My Lord, rest assured, the Yang family members are all well!" Han Yunhai said quickly, "Tomorrow, I will accompany you to recognize your relatives!"
"No need, I'll go alone!" Lu Fan waved his hand, "You don't need to follow!"
Everyone nodded, not daring to say more.
Han Yunhai looked at Lin Xiaojia, feeling somewhat astonished. In just one day, his aura had changed. If Lu Fan's words were true, Lin Xiaojia might truly reach the Grandmaster level within a year.
Meanwhile, in a hotel near Tianxia Mingchu, Li Qingwen was restless, pacing back and forth.
"Young Master, we've searched everywhere and haven't seen Elder Qin!" a servant reported, "Could something have happened?"
"Elder Qin is highly skilled, how could anything happen to him!"
Li Qingwen said coldly. Although he was a little worried, in his opinion, Elder Qin was incredibly capable and a martial arts master, so nothing could easily happen to him.
Thinking of this, Li Qingwen put aside his concerns.
"Go investigate! Who exactly is that brat? Who has he been in contact with recently!" Li Qingwen said coldly.
The servant nodded quickly, not daring to delay in the slightest.
Late at night, Lu Fan woke from his sleep and went into the courtyard, looking lost in thought.
Tomorrow he would go to his maternal family. So many years had passed, he didn't know if they would recognize him.
But at this moment, Lu Fan noticed Lin Xiaojia practicing various moves in a corner of the courtyard, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"Still not sleeping so late?" Lu Fan said softly, "Haste makes waste. If you're so anxious, how can you improve? It will be counterproductive!"
"Brother Lu!" Lin Xiaojia said awkwardly, "Did I wake you up?"
"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk!" Lu Fan smiled, "Actually, I'm very interested in the Ten Thousand Mountains. Why don't you tell me about it?"
"Ten Thousand Mountains?"
Lin Xiaojia murmured, his eyes filled with memories, stirring up a wave of emotions.
