C37 This Reaction Is Not Bad

The Liu Family had been defeated and destroyed.

Lu Yuan had long understood the principle of 'the wild grass can't be blown away, and the spring breeze can grow again'. Therefore, he didn't leave any survivors when dealing with the Liu Family.

Perhaps in other people's eyes, this was cruelty, but in Lu Yuan's heart, this was for the sake of the Lu Family.

Everyone would encounter something that they couldn't do. In the end, they would have to make a decision. No matter if it was right or wrong, they couldn't go back on their word.

If they could, they could be called sages.

The atmosphere in Cangwu City had been very tense since the Lu Family's banquet.

This was because the guards of Lu Family would search the streets from time to time.

The people thought that someone from the Liu Family had escaped and was hiding somewhere in the city.

This also became the topic of discussion among the customers in the restaurant, guessing who the escaped person from the Liu Family was.

Some people guessed that it was Liu Renzhi.

Some people also thought it was Liu Jingtai.

In any case, there were many possibilities, but none of them were correct.

However, they could only discuss these things in this kind of place where there were too many people and there were too many eyes.

Because others would also say these words, so they would not appear to be independent.

...

In the antique study of Lu Mansion, Lu Yuan listened to Zhou Huaiyuan's report. He nodded, put down the book in his hand, and said, "Although we haven't found it, we can't relax. Locust garden, you have to add more people. You must find that killer."

Zhou Scholar Tree Garden nodded his head and said: "I understand, old master"

Zhou Huaiyuan glanced at Xu Jing who was sitting quietly on the chair, then turned around and left.

Xu Jing picked up the hot tea on the small table next to him and took a sip.

The study was quiet for a while, and Lu Yuan said, "Maybe he has escaped the city."

Xu Jing shook his head with certainty and said, "Impossible. He was hit by my Cold Jade Palm and did not remove the cold in his body. His injuries will become more serious. You sent people to search him during this period of time, which gave him a lot of pressure. He didn't have time to stay at all. He wanted to get rid of the cold air and recover from his injuries. Besides, his last strike had worsened his injuries. Even if he's still alive, he's most likely dead."

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Then he might already be dead. He's in a dark corner of the city."

Xu Jing slightly knitted his brows and said seriously, "If he is alive, I want to see him. If he is dead, I want to see his corpse. I don't want him to still be alive in this world."

Lu Yuan felt that Xu Jing's killing intent towards the assassin was a little heavy. He couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

Xu Jing looked into Lu Yuan's eyes and said, "He is an assassin of Nocturnal Pavilion. He knows about that thing. Even if he didn't know about it, he had already guessed something. If he survives, he will definitely send someone to investigate. This will be very troublesome."

Lu Yuan frowned. He felt that Dong Chi's survival was indeed somewhat threatening. After all, Dong Chi was an assassin, and he was prepared to kill him.

Lu Yuan nodded and said, "I understand."

Xu Jing suddenly said, "However, searching for Dong Chi is still secondary. The most important thing is still that thing."

Lu Yuan pondered for a while, seeming to hesitate about not talking about this matter. In the end, he made a decision. "That thing was picked up by me in the dark market. The price is not high."

Xu Jing said seriously, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lu Yuan said helplessly, "Because I don't think the dark market can provide any clues."

"How do you know it can't be?" Xu Jing said, "Where is the dark market?"

Lu Yuan said, "On the north side of the lake, there are only people walking on the long street during the day. At night, they are all warriors and cultivators. They sell their items or exchange for the items they need."

Xu Jing asked, "What are the special rules?"

Lu Yuan replied, "No. Other than fighting on the long street, everything is the same as trading ordinary items."

"I got it." Xu Jing thought about it and then said, "Tonight, I will ask Patriarch Lu to accompany me."

Lu Yuan was puzzled. "It's possible, but it's hard to say if I can meet the seller of that item."

"We'll know when we go and take a look." Xu Jing's eyes flashed. He thought about the item hidden in his sleeve. If he could undo it, he might not be far away from forming a Yuan Dan.

Thus, he couldn't miss it.

...

After Lu Ming finished his dinner, he left the dining table first with the excuse of going back to practice his sword.

There were a lot of things that needed to be taken care of in Lu Family recently, and they also needed to take over the Liu Family's business. Therefore, Lu Yuan did not pay attention to Lu Ming's recent actions. Instead, he felt that it was not bad to practice hard.

Lu Ming brought Hongying back to his courtyard and pushed open the door to enter.

He suddenly stopped at the door and said to Hongying, "Go and make two cups of hot tea."

Hongying felt puzzled, "Two cups?"

Recently when Lu Ming needed hot tea and hot water, he always followed the quantity of two cups. This made Hongying very puzzled. Could it be that he drank one cup and poured one cup?

Perhaps this was the life of a rich family's child.

Hongying went to make tea. There was a separate kitchen in the courtyard.

Lu Ming looked at Hongying's back and his eyes flashed with a touch of consideration. He was deciding whether to tell her about this matter and completely make Hongying one of his own.

Lu Ming thought about it and pushed open the door and entered the house.

The light in the house was a little dim, and the light that shone through the wooden window was also very thin.

Lu Ming took two steps and sat on a stool. He said, "Come out."

Dong Chi crawled out from under the bed with difficulty. His injuries were still not much recovered, but his face was a little rosy.

Dong Chi leaned against the bed and sat paralyzed. He panted and said, "The young maid beside you has left?"

Lu Ming said, "She went to make tea. She will come over later."

Dong Chi frowned and said, "Then why did you call me out?"

Lu Ming looked at him and said, "I think she needs to know."

Dong Chi pondered for a moment and said, "Aren't you afraid that she will tell your father about this?"

"There are many things that you have to try before you know the result." Lu Ming looked at Hongying, who was walking towards him with two cups of hot tea, and said, "If she tells my father, it means that she is not qualified to be my servant girl. Besides, I did not suffer any loss. If she didn't say it, then she is one of us. "

Dong Chi sneered and said," I'm not one of you. "

Lu Ming glanced at him and said, "Of course you are not. You will eventually become a dead man."

Hongying walked in and did not see Dong Chi.

When she put the hot tea on the table, she unconsciously looked at Lu Ming when she let go. Then she found Dong Chi sitting by the bed. She was shocked and almost spilled the tea.

Hongying did not know if it was out of instinct or something, but she protected Lu Ming behind her and pointed at Dong Chi and said, "Who are you!"

Dong Chi smiled and said, "This reaction is not bad."

Lu Ming said to Hongying, "Sit down."

Hongying said, "Young Master, we should tell Master that there is an assassin in your room. Let him handle it."

Lu Ming's expression did not change as he said, "There is no need. He has a lot of things to do recently."

Hongying said, "Then what should we do?"

Lu Ming looked into her eyes and said, "Let me ask you a question. Will you secretly tell my father about what happened now?"

Hongying thought about it and decisively shook her head.

Lu Ming was very surprised and asked, "Why?"

Hongying said, "Because you helped me bury my father."

No.
