Chapter 738: Chapter 738: Can the Lu Family Produce an Immortal Master?

A Martial Artist naturally could not refuse.

Lu Chen and Chu Zhongtian, at first glance, appeared extraordinary and poised, arriving by treading on air and descending from the sky, which also proved their identities.

Now, as they began inquiring about the situation in Yuzhou City, it gave the locals some hope.

He originally wanted to introduce the situation in Yuzhou City, but seeing Lu Chen’s expressionless face, he didn’t dare to speak and silently led Lu Chen to the back mountain of the Lu Family!

Lu Chen and Chu Zhongtian, knowing that there were monsters in Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, consciously restrained their own auras.

An hour later, they appeared at the foot of the mountain where the Lu Family was located.

"Immortal Master, I dare not go any further."

The Martial Artist bowed respectfully and followed up with an explanation for Lu Chen.

"Go ahead."

Lu Chen nodded with a smile and then looked ahead at the archway.

In the middle of the archway, two large characters read "Lu Family."

"Brother Lu Dao, is this your home?"

Chu Zhongtian asked softly.

"Mm."

When he left, he was like a stray dog.

But on his return, he had become a cultivator!

Lu Chen responded softly, gathering his myriad thoughts, and said, "Let’s go."

Having said that, he slowly took a step forward, and Chu Zhongtian hastily followed.

Before long.

The two stood before Lu Chen’s cluster of buildings, with two guards at the gate in the Bone Refinement Realm.

"Who goes there, to dare trespass upon the Lu Family?"

A Lu Family Martial Artist, sword in hand and employing the Lu Family sword technique, came rushing over with immense aggression.

"Hmph!"

Seeing that Lu Chen hadn’t moved, Chu Zhongtian let out a snort, and a Core Formation aura locked the two in place.

Clang clang!

With two crisp sounds, the pair were immobilized, their swords dropping to the ground.

"Who... who are you!"

The Martial Artists, weighed down as if bearing mountains, still had one who gritted his teeth and asked.

Chu Zhongtian looked at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen said indifferently, "It’s alright."

"Yes, Brother Lu Dao."

Chu Zhongtian bowed respectfully, stepped back half a step, and the oppressive aura on them lifted. Only then did they notice Lu Chen.

"Lu... Lu Chen!"

When they recognized his face, they staggered backward as if seeing a ghost.

"What, are you afraid of me?"

Lu Chen asked with interest.

These two, being from a collateral line of the Lu Family, were naturally recognizable to Lu Chen.

"We would never forget, even in death!"

A Martial Artist said through clenched teeth, "Have you now found a master to seek revenge?"

"Revenge?"

Lu Chen answered with a light smile, "What grudges does the Lu Family have to avenge?"

He shook his head and walked towards the front.

Chu Zhongtian continued to follow.

"Lu Chen, you have already been expelled from the Lu Family..."

As the two Martial Artists made a gesture to resist, a gust of wind suddenly came, lifting them and carrying them away to a nearby spot.

"Brother Lu Dao, you..."

Chu Zhongtian, on the side, also vaguely guessed something, realizing that Lu Chen was not well-regarded in his own family.

"It’s nothing," said Lu Chen with a smile. "Just watch; I will handle family affairs."

Lu Chen quickened his pace, and soon arrived outside the grand hall of the Lu Family.

Voice from inside the hall could be heard discussing the subsequent affairs of Yuzhou City.

Lu Chen paused, hearing a familiar voice and was momentarily stunned.

"In my view, the only way is to elevate the strength of the Martial Artists in Yuzhou City as much as possible so that there might be a chance to escape from here."

It was Zhao Chang.

The son of the Divine Doctor of Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, Old Man of Heavenly Medicine!

What was he doing in the Lu Family?

And from the tone of his speech, it seemed as though the Lu Family was his one-man show!

"Brother Zhao," another voice then rang out, from a member of the Lu Family, Lu Changkong!

Lu Changkong was heard saying, "For the past six months, all the medicinal resources in the city have been at your disposal, yet our Lu Family members have not sensed the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth! Without becoming cultivators, even if the Martial Artists run away, I’m afraid all will die here!"

Zhao Chang said, "Patriarch Lu, whether one can cultivate depends on whether they have the fate. Zhao has indeed tried his best!"

"Tried your best? With one ’tried your best,’ you’ve washed your hands of everything! Now all of Yuzhou City has been calmed by a single sentence about the Lu Family having an Immortal Master, and you say, ’tried your best’?"

Lu Changkong’s face twisted fiercely.

Zhao Chang continued, "So, I plan to use all the medicine in the future to enhance the strength of Martial Artists above the Bone Refinement Realm. Once the city gates open, everyone can escape on their own. Life and death are predestined, and wealth and honor are in heaven’s hands; all is left to fate!"

"Zhao Chang," Lu Changkong’s tone also became stern, "You speak lightly, but I, Lu, do not agree!"

Zhao Chang’s voice also grew cold, as he said, "Zhao is not a member of your Lu Family! The reason I chose the Lu Family is that I knew Lu Chen came from you!"

"Lu Chen?"

Lu Changkong laughed mockingly and then said with fierce disdain, "If it weren’t for your claim to have an Immortal Master, just mentioning the name ’Lu Chen’ would have been enough for me to execute you that day! Now the Lu Family can’t produce an Immortal Master, yet you want others to escape. Where does that leave the dignity of my Lu Family?"

At this point, Lu Chen had already understood everything.

Was the Lu Family able to control Yuzhou City all because of one sentence?

He sighed and pushed open the door.
