Chapter 186 - Conspiracy Against Lu Xuan (2/2)
He had not even made it a few steps into the grand defensive formation when he was dealt a grave injury right away by the sword qi.
The expressions on the rest of the Luo family members changed upon hearing this name. When it came to Lu Xuan, no one in the Luo family did not know about him.
If it was said that they suffered a huge loss before because they did not view Lu Xuan as a threat, now nobody dared to underestimate Lu Xuan.
Due to this fact, the Luo family had no choice but to pull back their reach and retreat from Min Province.
They had been biding their time, waiting for the Great Ancestor to break through to the Invincible Vajra Level before they began their conquest anew.
Unlike other factions of Cultivators, those of the Luo family were aware of the existence of the Invincible Vajra level from a long time ago.
They also knew that the Invincible Vajra level was the true first step to becoming superhuman.
No matter how formidable the Divine levels from before were, getting struck by a bullet would still be fatal.
However, Invincible Vajra Levels were different. Their physical bodies were so strong that even without protecting themselves with Spiritual Qi, getting sprayed with gunfire would not harm them.
They were truly invincible.
Yet, unexpectedly, their Great Ancestor had suffered a heavy injury moments after reentering the world.
“Help me fetch the alkahestry pill from the secret compartment in my private room!” Luo Zihong said through clenched teeth. Very soon, one of the junior members of the Luo family had brought over a brown alkahestry pill.
Luo Zihong hurriedly consumed it, and before long, his life force suddenly increased, and the horrific wound healed at a frightening speed.
The aura surrounding his body also grew stronger, and even his own power underwent a great increase. Originally, Luo Zihong’s strength was only middling among the Invincible Vajra Level masters.
However, now that his strength had grown to double of what it was, he had instantly reached the level of the strongest among the Invincible Vajras.
“The Great Ancestor is alright!”
The high-level members of the Luo family were immediately overjoyed. If Luo Zihong fell here, the impact it would have on the rest of the Luo family would be unimaginably bad.
Luo Zihong took in a deep breath, having escaped from the jaws of death, and said, “Though I ended up fine this time, that was the last of the alkahestry pills they gave me. I had originally planned to consume it to break through to a higher level, but I was forced to use it earlier than expected!”
Thinking about this, Luo Zihong felt an ache in his heart.
He knew that the Invincible Vajra level was only the first step to becoming superhuman, but if he broke through to the next level, he would truly be superhuman and would truly be a god-like individual.
When that happened, taking on an entire army would be a simple matter for him, and he would be unparalleled under the heavens.
He had reserved that alkahestry pill for breaking through to the next level, so having to use it now naturally pained him a lot.
“I need to slay this little bastard to quench the hatred in my heart!” Luo Zihong stated coldly. “However, that little b*stard is hiding in that villa of his, and I can’t reach him. Do any of you have some way of luring him out!”
Luo Zihong scanned the crowd, and the rest of the Luo family understood what he meant right away, but they did not have any good plans to propose. Against someone turtling up in his own villa, there was basically no good way of dealing with him.
Judging from Luo Zihong’s injuries, even if they all went together, they would probably be killed, and were essentially useless.
“Great Ancestor, your granddaughter has a plan!”
Suddenly, Luo Ying, who had been standing in a corner, spoke up.
“What plan do you have, let’s hear it?” Luo Zihong questioned.
Luo Ying answered, “It’s very simple, Great Ancestor. Now that you’ve broken through to the Invincible Vajra Level, it’s a joyous affair and should be cause for a big celebration. When the time is right, you can invite several of your good friends and wait for Lu Xuan to come, then you can catch him in our trap and ensure his death!”
Hearing this, Luo Zihong asked, “How are you so sure that Lu Xuan will come?”
Luo Ying answered, “During this time, your granddaughter has been investigating Lu Xuan. What I’ve found is that this man is arrogant and scorns conspiracies and tricks. At the same time, he is ruthless and has been eyeing our Luo family for some time with deadly intent. If the Great Ancestor were to hold a celebration, then your granddaughter is certain that there is an extremely high chance of him coming here to kill us!
“I can’t wait to smash him to pieces, and Lu Xuan probably can’t wait to kill us all as well!”
