Rumble…
At that very moment, a roaring sound erupted. The black dragon was swallowed by the white dragon, which charged forward relentlessly, smashing Yun Yi violently.
Even with all his might, he was merely a plaything before the white dragon. He crashed heavily onto the bluestone, his aura rapidly diminishing.
Suffering such a severe blow, even a Grandmaster of great attainment would have no chance of survival.
"Grandpa!"
Yun Bei shouted, his heart filled with despair. The methods Lu Fan displayed completely surpassed his imagination, making it difficult for him to believe.
*Puff…*
The Yun family head spat out a mouthful of blood, his body trembling violently, seemingly in extreme pain. "I lost, and I will honor the bet! I hope you will keep your promise." Sudang Novel Network
"Rest assured, Yun family head. I will keep my promise," Lu Fan stated directly. "As long as the Yun family members obediently leave Jiangdong and disappear from public view, I naturally will not trouble them."
"Thank you!"
Yun Yi managed to utter a few words with great difficulty before finally closing his eyes, filled with unwillingness. He had been in seclusion for so many years with the goal of reaching a very high realm, only to encounter such a master immediately after emerging. He would likely regret this for his entire life.
"We won, the Sect Master won!"
The people of Qingyun Sect cheered, overjoyed that Lu Fan had managed to kill the Yun family head. For them, this was perhaps the best outcome.
"We, who were ignorant of heaven and earth and offended Lord Lu, truly deserve death!"
The Bai family head quickly knelt on the ground, his body even trembling. He knew very well that they had sided with the Yun family before and had never taken Lu Fan seriously. Now that Lu Fan had killed the Yun family head, they were all filled with dread.
"The Bai family of Xizhou, the Li family of Zhongzhou, the Liu family of Donghai!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "You truly have great ambition!"
The several family heads knelt on the ground, their expressions constantly trembling. They knew very well Lu Fan's current strength. To offend Lu Fan was equivalent to courting death, and even their families would suffer disaster.
"We were ignorant of heaven and earth. We implore Lord Lu to be magnanimous and spare our lives!"
The Liu family head quickly clasped his fists. "From now on, we will never dare to be an enemy of Lord Lu!"
"Is that all?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "You colluded with the Yun family to deal with me. Now, with a few words, you expect to live? That's not so easy in this world!"
The several family heads exchanged glances, unsure of what to do. Lu Fan's single word could likely take their lives.
"From today onwards, your three great families will submit to my Qingyun Sect!" Lu Fan said coldly. "Are you willing!"
"This…"
The faces of the three family heads were awkward. They were martial arts families. To truly bow down to Lu Fan meant becoming a subordinate force of the Qingyun Sect in the martial arts world, which was naturally quite unacceptable to them.
"The three family heads, you probably have no other choice now, don't you!" the Han family head said with a smile. "Why not make a decision soon, lest your entire clan be wiped out and cause sorrow to others!"
"To become a subordinate force of the Qingyun Sect is the good fortune of my Bai family!"
The Bai family head quickly clasped his fists. The situation had reached this point. If they displeased Lu Fan, they might not be able to leave today, and their families would suffer endless disaster in the future. This was not what they wanted.
The other two family heads also nodded in agreement. "It is our supreme honor to become a subordinate force of the Qingyun Sect!"
"That would be for the best!" Lu Fan nodded with satisfaction. "You may leave now…"
The several family heads expressed their thanks and quickly headed down Nine Dragon Mountain, not daring to delay in the slightest. They knew very well that if Lu Fan made a move, they wouldn't even have a chance to react.
After they left, Lu Fan turned to the Yun family members. "The Yun family head has been defeated. Do any of you have any objections! If anyone is not convinced, feel free to step forward. I can give you an opportunity!"
Not a single person from the Yun family spoke. They all knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with terror. Before someone who seemed like a powerful being, they were like ants. How could they dare to fight Lu Fan? Even the other three family heads had been subdued by Lu Fan, so what were they?
Perhaps Grandmasters were now insignificant in Lu Fan's eyes.
"Within three days, the Yun family must leave Jiangdong and disappear!" Lu Fan said coldly. "If I hear of the Yun family in Jiangdong again in the future, I will kill them!"
The Yun family members dared not speak and could only nod repeatedly. Now that the most powerful Grandmaster of the Yun family had been killed, all they could do was obey the decree.
After this incident, Lord Lu of Jiangnan's reputation spread throughout Jiangdong, causing endless ripples and astonishing many. No one knew what kind of young prodigy it was who could even kill the Yun family head.
In a noodle restaurant in Jiangdong, several men sat upright, appearing to be martial men.
"Have you heard? A momentous event occurred on the peak of Nine Dragon Mountain a few days ago!"
"Of course, we've heard. The Yun family head was killed, and Lord Lu of Jiangnan's strength is unparalleled. Who doesn't know this?"
"But speaking of which, Lord Lu is so young. Is he truly a powerful being?"
"Who knows! After all, powerful beings are legendary figures. We haven't even seen a Grandmaster, let alone a powerful being!"
"You must be careful not to speak carelessly. If Lord Lu hears it, you might not even know how you died."
The conversations continued, and the men's respect for Lord Lu was deafening, even tinged with apprehension.
With his own strength, he killed the Yun family head. What kind of might was this? It was ultimately hard to believe.
Meanwhile, in Jiangbei, Lin Ke lay on the bed, full of vigor.
Lu Fan was brewing medicinal soup and brought it to the room. "This is today's medicine. Drink it quickly!"
"I've been drinking medicine for days. I can't take it anymore," Lin Ke said aggrievedly. "How about we skip this dose today! I'm not that sick anyway!"
After returning from Jiangdong, Lu Fan had given Lin Ke several doses of potent tonic medicine, only to be met with disdain.
"This is personally brewed by me. If you don't eat it, Xiao Ke, wouldn't you be letting down my good intentions!" Lu Fan said pitifully. "Don't you not love me anymore!"
"How is that possible!" Lin Ke quickly shook his head. "I just…"
"You don't need to say anything else. If you love me, you will drink it!" Lu Fan said with a serious expression.
Lin Ke, however, felt a bit helpless and could only drink the medicine in his hand.
Seeing Lin Ke's full of vigor, Lu Fan was completely relieved.
In the living room, Lin Aotian and the others waited, feeling a lot more relaxed. With Lin Ke's safe return, he was no longer as worried.
"I really didn't expect Lord Lu to be so formidable," Lin Haitao said. "Uncle, have you heard? The Yun family in Jiangdong was wiped out?"
"I have indeed heard!" Lin Aotian nodded.
