Chapter 350 - Lu Xuan’s Influence (1/2)

Be it Guanglinzi, that old Taoist, or even Lu Zhengqing, nobody truly cared about the wellbeing of the common people.

At the time, they had deemed everyone in the village as being little more than insects that were beneath their notice.

Even so, everyone who thought themselves to be gods above everyone else remained utterly helpless and powerless when faced by Lu Xuan.

Anyone who wielded sufficient power would easily hold the fates of others in their hands.

Things were completely different from that romantic, peaceful world of cultivators they originally imagined.

The brutality and ruthlessness displayed among the cultivators made all that drama and power struggle in workplaces seem utterly insignificant.

Losers in the workplace would only lose their jobs at most, but losers in the world of cultivators could probably lose their lives.

It was a world that was completely alien to them.

Lu Xuan did not stay behind for the rest of the ceremony and instead brought Lu Guoguo back to Yunxuan Villa, leaving Lu Tianxiang behind as the center of attention.

He wondered just how many people would begin sucking up to his father.

Lu Tianxiang was someone whom the people of the Lu Clan saw to be rather wealthy, but that was all there was to it; he was hardly anything special to them. After all, there were quite a lot of businessmen who were even more successful than him.

However, everything changed when Lu Xuan made his move. Everyone was able to see that the current and coming era was, and would be, the golden age of the cultivators.

Cultivators would be the ones to rule the future world.

What Lu Xuan demonstrated shocked them to the core. They thought that if they were to be able to deepen the connections with Lu Xuan’s family, the Lu Clan would no longer be a small loose clan as it currently was. The clan might probably become those told in legends.

Lu Tianxiang was able to clearly see what was currently happening, as well as realize what was going on in the heads of his clansman. More importantly, he knew even more about his son’s intentions.

Technically, he owed his clan after they acquired scholarships so he could go to college. However, that was not the case with his son.

He believed it was ridiculous for those people to think of trying to rally Lu Xuan to the side of the clan and work for the clan’s interests.

There was just no way his son would have done that.

Few people in the current era valued the concept of clans in the first place. Most people had little thoughts and reverence for their supposed clans.

Nonetheless, it was still deemed reasonable for clansmen to look after one another as long as it was within reason.

Then again, Lu Xuan didn’t care about any of that at all.

Half a month later, several heads were literally delivered to the Yunxuan Villa.

Those heads nonetheless belonged to Lu Zhengqing and his master, as well as Guanglinzi and some others. Other than that, several heads belonged to Celestial Realm cultivators along with some that even belonged to those at the Airborne Realm.

They were all renowned figures of the overseas rite of the Maoshan Sect.

Lu Xuan naturally was able to learn through the Heavenly Palace’s intelligence network that what the Maoshan Sect did for the past half a month shook the entire world of cultivators.

The entire Maoshan Sect was furious after Sha Tongshen took the captives, including Guanglinzi, back to the Maoshan Sect.

They thought that they would have been made a laughing stock if word got out.

Witchcraft such as Gu and Tame Head curses had originated from Huaxia. Simply put, the people who practiced those arts lost in the war of orthodoxy; they were thus exiled by the Buddhists, the Taoists, and some other groups all those years ago.

People who practiced such arts were still found in the southwestern regions of the country.

The Maoshan Sect, on the other hand, was among the most glorious of the victors in the war.

Even so, those of the overseas rite of the Maoshan Sect instead chose to pick up Tame Head, which was deemed to be the art of losers. The entire Maoshan Sect would be made a laughing stock if word got out.
