873 Cannot Afford To Offend (2/2)

※※※※

Tianyan Manor, within the main hall.

Lu Yantian was sitting on the throne in the hall, totally calm and unperturbed.

His expression looked like he didn't care at all about what was going on below. However, if one was familiar with him, one could see the darkness in his eyes.

”Interesting! Really interesting! This is the first time in 30 years that someone dared to attack me so arrogantly!”

Although he was laughing, it sent a chill down the spine of everyone within the hall.

Any slightly intelligent and sharp person could pick up the coldness and killing intent within his words.

Xiaoyue had a solemn expression on her face as she stood at the side.

She was also quite surprised regarding the matter today. She didn't think that Zong Shou, who was still healing up in secluded meditation, could actually ride a Celestial Realm God Beast Protector Beast to kill his way over to Tianyan Mountain.

She felt really bitter and helpless in her heart. She was originally thinking about what she had to do to protect Jingyin.

Who knew that the person that she personally saved actually came over to cause such a huge mess?

This person's strength was indiscernible, if he was able to heal up fully they might have been able to place some hopes on him.

However, just now she saw that this person's meridians were no different from that of a normal person, he was like a normal person, unable to use any True Qi.

Since that was the case, then it was better if he remained in the convent, why did he come here? To cause trouble?

At this moment, she only hoped that this Tianyan Manor Head could just totally forget about her.

Thoughts rose up and changed in her mind as she contemplated many ideas regarding how to get away from all this.

However, the matter that she was afraid in her heart was the thing to happen in the end. Lu Yantian looked coldly over towards her.

”You have done great this time. 600 women, 90% successfully giving birth. Just now, I saw that they are all good quality Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow. They are more than enough for my needs.”

Xiaoyue kept silent and didn't say a word. Being praised like that made her feel even sadder.

Since she went all out to take care of those pregnant women, all the more she more pain she felt taking the babies away when they were born.

Did she have to thank this evil devil for his praise and say things like that, how could she accept it?

Since begging for mercy was useless and she couldn't fight back, she could only keep silent.

If it was as what she expected, he still had something to say after that…

As expected Lu Yantian's tone changed, ”However, what is up with this person? I heard Xichen say that he was healing in your convent? Judging from his appearance, he is similar to the person that I was searching for. How are you going to explain it?”

Xiaoyue predicted it and bowed, ”When I saved him, it was before you were searching for him. Saving a person is better than building a 7-story pagoda. Since I saw him, I couldn't just stand aside and do nothing? I also don't know this person's background.”

She continued, ”A month ago, I compared their looks too. At that time, I didn't think that they looked similar. So I didn't expect that he was the person that you were looking for. If you want to use this as an excuse to punish me, then there is nothing I can do.”

Lu Yantian was startled and then gritted his teeth and laughed coldly, ”You really are sharp, pushing the blame away so cleanly! I just want to ask if, in your heart, you really knew nothing! Forget it! I won't punish you for what happened today, I will just increase the number for next month by 100. This thing is never to occur a second time…”

Xiaoyue listened on, her face turned ashen white and she looked dazed.

She gritted her teeth and then kept silent, unwilling to reply.

Lu Yantian didn't care. Naturally, he had his own ways to make her do as he wished.

His lips curled up, a smile appeared on his face once more.

Although he lost a bit of his pride today, the mountain was in a total mess from all the smashing, but he didn't lose too much.

”You can tell my Brother Wushuang that his enemy has appeared. If he doesn't come down now, then he might regret…”

The moment he said this, a person walked out from beside him, ”Manor Head, if you do that it would be hard to explain to the Celestial Dynasty and the two Country Rulers?”

Lu Yantian looked over impassively at the 40-year-old middle-aged man who was wearing a scholarly robe.

This was his official known as Lu Jun. His position was similar to Lu Xichen and their strength were too.

The only thing was that this person didn't serve him...

He shook his head, his tone was filled with disdain as he burst out laughing.

”Explain what? I have tried my best to delay it, but Zong Shou wants to die, so it isn't my fault. No matter who it is, they can't blame me. Moreover, even if I want to hide it, I won't be able to. There is such a commotion, so how can he not find out and come down!”

Saying that, Lu Yantian took out a red blood drop and placed it on his lips to taste.

”Tell Lu Xichen to show mercy. This person is a heir to our Lu Family and has Fangjue as his shield. He is also the grandson of the Saint Emperor. Even if the Saint Emperor hates the Zong Family to the bone, we can't be the ones to claim his life. We can't afford to offend them, just leave it to Brother Wushuang. What a waste…”

Before he finished, the mountain suddenly shook once more.

Lu Yantian frowned and then his expression changed.
