Chapter 130 - Kill Him Again (2/2)

However, she did not think the Luo Clan’s evasive policy was taken because they were weak. If there were anyone who laughed at them for backing out of the province before, all of them had probably shut up by now.

Everyone’s impression of Lu Xuan changed altogether when he went out to crush the Soul-snatcher Sect on a whim. That was a show of monstrous prowess, after all.

Powers capable of wiping out a cultivation sect or clan single-handedly was a terrifying feat.

Many shuddered just at the thought of it.

The Luo Clan was but a branch of the Taichu Group. It was totally normal for them to choose to evade Lu Xuan, who went out to do as he pleased, and no one was able to stop him.

“Don’t ever speak of this to anyone from here on out. Don’t admit to it, even if the Luo Clan adamantly claims that you’re his killer,” Lin Miaoyi stopped and said to Lu Xuan with a serious tone. “If you refuse to admit it, we of the other clans can pretend as if nothing happened, taking it all to be between you and the Luo Clan. But if you admit it, I’m afraid the group won’t just let it slide, even if just out of consideration of the group’s interests.

“The Taichu Group is monstrous. What you see on the surface is but the tip of an iceberg. You might be a Deity now, but you’ll still be in grave danger.”

Lin Miaoyi felt some bit of regret as soon as she finished. What she did was tantamount to leaking the group’s secrets to an outsider, although she was the one who started it all.

If it had not been for her agreeing to meet Lu Xuan for matchmaking reasons, Luo Kun would not have needed to make his move and would not have ended up killed by Lu Xuan.

But, she was unable to just look away.

She knew that Deities were very, very powerful, so much so that they were at the very limit tolerated by the world itself; however, the Taichu Group had access to many secret, forbidden means.

Such means were so fearsome that not even the likes of Deities would be guaranteed to be able to resist.

As such, she did not wish to see Lu Xuan go on to declare war on the entire group out of glee. She did not want to see such a grim future become a reality.

“I know.” Lu Xuan nodded. He probably knew of just fearsome the Taichu Group was more than many in the group itself.

It was due precisely to this that Lu Xuan did not do anything rash against the group, despite having reached Deity Level.

When it came to personal prowess, he was confident enough to say that there was hardly anyone capable of taking him on at the moment. However, some of the Taichu Group’s forbidden methods were passed down from the Taichu Path.

The Taichu Path was not a force that was pulverized until they were within an inch of their last breath, like the Soul-snatcher Sect; they were truly at the top.

“But then again, I won’t be scared, even if you people of the Taichu Path come looking for trouble with me. You’re not the only ones with cards and tricks up their sleeves, after all.”

Lu Xuan grinned and said, “But, nonetheless, thank you for the reminder.”

“I do hope that we won’t become enemies.” Lin Miaoyi’s beautiful eyes sparkled in the dark of night, and there was some doubt seen in her eyes.

“We won’t.” Lu Xuan blurted out this single line plainly.

“Even if there does come such a day, I’ll make sure to go easy on you.”

Lin Miaoyi did not know how to react. She thought that Lu Xuan was too sure of himself, so much so that he paid no heed to what the Taichu Group was actually capable of.

She simply felt that Lu Xuan had yet to learn just how truly terrifying the Taichu Group was.

“We’ll just leave the topic of the Taichu Group at that. The Song Clan won’t just let what you did slide. Song Shijie is not Luo Kun; he really is from the direct line of the Holy Dragon Corporation. I’m afraid Song Lingfeng is really gonna come for you after what you did to Song Shijie,” Lin Miaoyi warned after thinking about it for a bit.

“Let him come then. I’ll kill him yet another time,” Lu Xuan quipped plainly.

While Lin Miaoyi did not know what he meant, when he said that he was going to kill Song Lingfeng again, she was able to tell how confident Lu Xuan was.
