Lu family.

in the hall.

Peng Zhang, Xing Peifeng, Li Jinyang and Yang Xuantai arrived one after another.

Lu Jianyu did not find it strange, as he had already received news that the Yu family was going to take action against the Fengtianjing martial arts family. To be honest, his Lu family could not control such a thing.

Now there are three situations that can save them.

One is that the four families are loyal to the court.

Second, the four families are subordinate to his Lu family.

Third, the four families are affiliated with powerful sects such as Tianwu Sect or Zhenwu Dao Sect.

After all, the four families are martial arts families in the world and do not rely on any force. Now that they are being bullied, they can only rely on powerful forces to protect themselves.

His Lu family is not a family of the underworld, but a family of the imperial court. After all, they were granted the title of king of a different surname by the Daning Dynasty.

If you come to the Lu family, you will have no choice but to rely on them.

Even if his Lu family is not a family of the imperial court, the most that the Jianghu family can do is to help them mediate. If mediation fails, he cannot control it.

"Master Lu, the Yu family is going too far!" Yang Xuantai was a man with a quick temper. He started to denounce the Yu family's evil ambitions to Lu Jianyu before he even had a cup of tea.

Then Peng Zhang and the other two spoke up, some cursing the Yu family and wanting to dominate Fengtian Realm.

Lu Jianyu sat in the seat of honor, drinking tea while listening to them scolding the Yu family.

After a while, he said, "Everyone, be quiet!"

Peng Zhang and the other three then shut up and looked at Lu Jianyu.

"My Lu family is half martial arts and half imperial court. Regardless of whether we are in the martial arts world or the imperial court, this matter is not my Lu family's turn to intervene.

But since you have come here, you must trust our Lu family.

If the Yu family really goes to destroy your clan in three days, I, Lu, will come forward to mediate for you. As for whether the Yu family will give you face, I, Lu, cannot be sure.

You have to make other plans.”

Hearing this, Peng Zhang asked, "Master Lu, do you have any ideas? Can you give us some advice?"

Lu Jianyu pondered for a moment and said, "The reason why the Yu family oppresses you is, first, they are stronger than you, and second, you have no backers. Before the Yu family's ambitions were not exposed, you four families could still survive, but now that it has been exposed, you must have a backer."

Peng Zhang and the other three looked at each other. The so-called backer was either the imperial court, the Tianwu Sect, or the Lu family.

However, among these three places, they felt that the Lu family was the most reliable.

After all, the imperial court also had its moments of decline, but the Lu family is still very powerful after more than 3,000 years of inheritance.

They would rather submit to the Lu family than to the Yu family.

"We are willing to obey the orders of Patriarch Lu!"

Peng Zhang and the other three quickly stood up and bowed to Lu Jianyu.

"Four of you, please don't misunderstand me. What I just said was not to ask you to submit to my Lu family..."

"Master Lu, we would rather submit to your Lu family than follow the arrangements of the Yu family." Peng Zhang said.

There is no comparison between the Yu family and the Lu family. Instead of being loyal to one force, it is better to choose the Lu family.

Lu Jianyu shook his head secretly: "In fact, you can choose to be loyal to the court. The overall strength of the court is more than ten times stronger than my Lu family. With the court as a backer, the Yu family will never dare to touch you."

What he said was true.

There are three powerful emperors in the court, the Tang family, the Xiahou family, and the old eunuch.

If his Lu family is included, there are four people.

There are at least ten powerful people in the realm of supernatural powers.

There are even more people in the Wanxiang Realm, more than fifty.

The Tiangang realm is at least above three hundred.

Therefore, the imperial court gathers one-third of the world's martial arts masters, otherwise how could Daning be established as a country?
"Loyalty to the court?"

The four of them murmured, thinking that the Lu family was also named a king of a different surname by the court, but they did not hold an office in the court. They were indeed half members of the court.

The four of them looked at each other and nodded: "Master Lu, we are willing to be loyal to the court. Please introduce us to the emperor."

Lu Jianyu nodded: "That's easy to say, but you have to be loyal to the court and obey the court's orders in the future. You have to be mentally prepared."

Peng Zhang said: "Master Lu, the court will not force us to do anything."

Lu Jianyu said: "That won't happen, but since you have chosen to be loyal to the court, the court will also provide resources to support you every year. Do you plan to use the court's resources and not do anything practical?"

“No, no, no…!” Peng Zhang shook his head. “Since you have chosen to be loyal to the imperial court, the imperial court can send you there at will. But there are some things that even we cannot solve. The imperial court should not embarrass us. That’s what I mean.”

"Don't worry, unless it's an unreasonable emperor." Lu Jianyu said lightly.

The four families then left with peace of mind.

Since they have chosen to be loyal to the imperial court, if the Yu family really causes trouble for them, the Lu family will definitely not stand idly by.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the Cai family jewelry store, Cai Jinghong sat with a grim expression.

He didn't know what was going on, but the families and forces that had previously cooperated with his Cai family stopped cooperating and even began to suppress his Cai family.

Nowadays, jewelry stores can’t sell any jewelry.

Among these forces, the Chu family has the largest jewelry business.

"Dad, I can't find my brother-in-law. The old housekeeper in the Marquis' Mansion said that my brother-in-law has been gone for almost two months and we haven't seen him since. Could something have happened to him?" Cai Lin ran into the hall in a hurry.

Cai Jinghong's face turned even uglier when he heard this. The reason why his Cai family could gain a foothold in Fengtian City was all thanks to Marquis Shenyong.

If something happened to Chen Xian, his Cai family would definitely not be able to survive in Fengtian City.

No wonder the Chu family and other forces have recently stopped cooperating with the Cai family.

"Where are Chen Quan and Chen Rong?" Cai Jinghong asked.

"I still want to stay in Fengtian Military Camp. I went there, but the camp was heavily guarded and I couldn't get in." Cai Lin looked unhappy.

"Cai Jinghong, what did I say three days ago? Why don't you pack up and get out?"

A young man in gorgeous clothes rushed into Cai's jewelry store with his men and shouted in a cold voice.

Cai Jinghong, Cai Lin and the chief protector of the Spirit Infant Realm looked at him and their expressions became even uglier.

"Mr. Chu, please take a seat." Cai Jinghong recognized the latter. The young man was called Chu Yutang, one of the outstanding young masters of the Chu family, with the strength of Tiangang realm.

Last year, when the Cai family came to Fengtian City, Chu Yutang was very polite and got along very well with his son Cai Lin.

Nowadays, people turn against each other at any time.

"Mr. Chu, what on earth happened?" Cai Lin hurried forward.

Chu Yutang sneered: "Cai Lin, do you really think that this young master can be interested in a piece of shit like you? If it weren't for Chen Xian's protection, your Cai family would be nothing!"

"Now that Chen Xian is dead, what backing do you have for the Cai family? I'll give you half an hour. If you don't leave Fengtian City, don't blame me for being rude."

After saying this, Chu Yutang left.

Cai Jinghong chased out of the hall with a box of gold in his arms. Chu Yutang didn't even look at him and knocked him to the ground.

It's just a thousand taels of gold. Are you going to give it to a beggar?
After seeing this scene, Cai Jinghong knew that his Cai family could no longer survive in Fengtian City.

He quickly picked up the gold on the ground, ran back to the main hall and said, "Son, pack up quickly and return to Fengyun County."

His Cai family was indeed able to survive in Fengtian City because of Chen Xian.

If Chen Xian died, the Cai family would not be able to leave and would be implicated sooner or later.

"Dad, is my brother-in-law really dead?" Cai Lin looked incredulous. He didn't know how powerful Chen Xian was, but he must be very strong. How could he be dead?

"I do not know!"

Cai Jinghong had no idea that now he could only take his family back to Fengyun County.

But Cai Lin didn't want to go back.

"These families are so snobbish!" Cai Lin was so angry that he threw things.

"Don't smash them, those are all valuable stuff, clean them up quickly!" Cai Jinghong shouted, and the maids and servants helped to clean up the things.

Just then, Peng Dazhuang came with his men.

Cai Lin rushed forward and greeted, "Brother Peng."

Peng Dazhuang glanced at Cai Lin and said, "Something might have happened to the master. You should pack up quickly and leave Fengtian City first. If nothing happened to the master, you can come back." Now his Peng family has also been threatened by the Yu family, so they are naturally unable to protect the Cai family, so it is better to let them leave.

An hour later.

Cai Jinghong drove ten horse-drawn carriages carrying his family and goods towards the outside of Fengtian City.

The chief protector of the Spirit Infant Great Perfection Realm did not abandon them and followed with a hundred or so people, at least to escort the Cai family to Fengyun County.

"Brother, what happened?"

In the carriage, Cai Yujiao was worried.

She always felt that something big had happened.

"Sister, don't ask anymore. Let's go back to Fengyun County first." Cai Lin also didn't want to tell his sister that Chen Xian was dead.

My sister will definitely be sad when she hears the news.

"Brother, even if we want to go back, shouldn't we at least say hello to Brother Chen Xian? We relied on him to gain a foothold in Fengtian City. Now that we're leaving, how can we leave without saying a word?"

"I've already told him, Dad has already talked to him!" Cai Lin dodged his eyes.

"Brother, you are lying. Every time you lie, your eyes are wandering." Cai Yujiao was a little angry.

Cai Lin said: "Good sister, don't ask any more questions, let me be quiet for a while."

"Who?"

Just then, a sharp shout came from the front of the carriage.

The chief protector who had reached the peak of the Spirit Infant Realm sat on his horse, staring at the dense forest ahead of the official road, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The Cai family guards raised their spears one by one and were on full alert.

Cai Jinghong and Cai Lin both stuck their heads out of the carriage.

"Someone intercepted it?"

"It's over, it's over...!"

I just left Fengtian City and someone intercepted me. Can I still return to Fengyun County?
brush brush...

More than a dozen people in black rushed out of the dense forest, holding long swords in their hands. As soon as they appeared, they started to hack and kill the Cai family's chief guard and his bodyguards.

In just a moment, hundreds of guards were hacked to death, only the chief guard and three Jade Dan Dacheng and Yuanman were still alive, but they were also seriously injured and could not fight anymore.

Cai Jinghong and his three companions were so scared that they hid in the carriage, not daring to move.

"on!"

One of the men in black snorted coldly.

Immediately, the thirteen men unleashed their strongest swords and killed the four guards.

The two carriages carrying Cai Jinghong and Cai Lin were also knocked over by the sword energy. Fortunately, the carriages were built very sturdily, otherwise they would have been chopped into pieces by the sword energy.

“Ahhh… Don’t kill me, don’t kill me…” Cai Lin rolled out of the carriage.

Soon, Cai Jinghong and his wife also climbed out of the carriage.

puff!puff!puff!
Three sword lights slashed towards Cai Lin and the other two.

However, Cai Lin had some skills and rolled over to hide behind the carriage, but Cai Jinghong and his wife were not so lucky. Two sword lights cut their throats, and they screamed and fell in a pool of blood, dying miserably!
"father!"

"mother!"

As Cai Yujiao rolled out of the carriage in a daze, she saw her parents being beheaded. At that moment, she let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"Father, father..."

Cai Lin was completely stunned and didn't care about his life or death. He ran towards Cai Jinghong and shook Cai Jinghong's body.

Cai Yujiao resisted the urge to vomit, rushed to her mother, hugged her in her arms, and cried bitterly.

Thirteen men in black quickly surrounded the family of four.

A couple died, as well as a brother and sister.

The leading black-clad man stared at Cai Yujiao and sneered, "Take her away, and kill this one!"

Cai Yujiao and Cai Lin were still in grief over the death of their parents and had not yet recovered.

“Dad, ahhhh…!” Cai Lin raised his head and cried bitterly.

Although he was a bit of a dandy, he was still very filial to his parents. Now that his parents were dead, he felt extremely painful and helpless.

“Ahhh…don’t grab me…!”

Just then, I heard my sister screaming.

Cai Lin suddenly woke up, and at this moment, a sword light slashed towards him.

He rolled on the ground to avoid the sword light and rushed towards his sister: "Let go of my sister...!"

boom!
Suddenly, a strong knife light came from the west and slashed towards the men in black.

A figure came up to them at an extremely fast speed and saved Cai Yujiao with one knife.

It was Wang Yan.

Wang Yan rescued Cai Yujiao and protected the brother and sister behind him. Looking at the corpses on the ground, his face was extremely solemn. After all, he was still too late.

Chen Xian did not show up, and he was very worried.

There were also problems within the Demon Suppression Headquarters, and they were extremely busy.

When he heard that the Cai family was driven out of Fengtian City by the Chu family, he hurried over to take a look. He originally wanted to escort the Cai family back to Fengyun County, but...

"Demon Suppression Guard?"

The thirteen men in black stepped back and stared at Wang Yan coldly.

At this time, Wang Yan had reached the fifth level of Tiangang cultivation.

He raised his knife and rushed towards the thirteen people.

"All of you, go to hell!"

In an instant, strong blood light burst out from Wang Yan's body, and soon the blood light burned into flames.

"This is……!"

The leading man in black looked slightly grim, feeling that the blood-red flame looked familiar.

"Mad Demon Bloodline? You, you are the remnant of the Fengbei Wang family?"

boom!
There was a flash of blood in Wang Yan's eyes, and his body suddenly grew fifteen meters tall. He rushed forward with his burly body, chopped the leader away with a knife, and he vomited blood.

Immediately afterwards, he swept the long knife in his hand, and five people were killed immediately.

Wang Yan rushed towards the leader like a madman.

The leader had reached the Tiangang realm, but was far inferior to Wang Yan.

Turn around and flee.

The other men in black grabbed Cai Yujiao and the other person.

Wang Yan could only turn around to protect Cai Yujiao and the other person. He killed seven people in a row, but in the end the leader still escaped.

Wang Yan tore off the masks on those people's faces one by one. He didn't recognize them, but judging from their sword skills just now, they seemed to be from a second-rate family in Fengtian City.

"Come with me!"

Wang Yan had a storage bag. After packing the Cai family's gold, silver and other treasures, he loaded the bodies of Cai Jinghong and his wife onto the carriage, and returned to Fengtian City together with Cai Yujiao.

He is a member of the imperial court, and those forces in Fengtian City dare not deal with him openly.

After returning to the city, Wang Yan went straight to the Demon Suppression Headquarters.

He parked the carriage at the posthouse. With his current status, he was qualified to accommodate Cai Yujiao and the other person.

In the post house.

Cai Yujiao and Cai Lin cried bitterly while holding their parents' bodies.

at the same time.

The four major families, the Peng family, the Xing family, the Yang family, and the Li family, were suppressed by the Yu family.

The four ancestors of Pengzhang directly brought out the imperial court for their support.

The Lu family also sent out four powerful masters of the supernatural realm to guard the four families, which scared away the Yu family. (End of this chapter)
