Chapter 2205 - 1699: Overbearing Lu Qi

Second update, asking for subscriptions and monthly votes~~~~...

Tears of the Stars is an exceptionally rare treasure, its value even surpasses that of ordinary superior elixirs...

If it weren't for this, how could Qin Fang risk his life and put up a fight to the end with Lu Tianfeng?

Lu Tianfeng, that fool, carrying such a treasure directly next to him without knowing its worth, truly squandering it; even when used as a stake, he thought he was making a huge profit?

The elixir Qin Fang brought out earlier wasn't a superior Cultivating Yuan Pill, just an ordinary Blood Replenishing Pill, even of a rather inferior quality… it's the kind Qin Fang would use to replenish his blood, not hesitating to use several at a time.

Perhaps, for these martial artists, the Blood Replenishing Pill is precious, capable of saving a life in critical moments, but compared to the Tears of the Stars, it's like comparing a crow to a phoenix, completely incomparable.

"I wonder how many drops are inside... If there are more than three, that would really be a huge gain!"

If it weren't for the inappropriate timing, Qin Fang really wanted to go back to his room and thoroughly study this Tears of the Stars. Yet, with the old man beside him, regardless of his nervousness, excitement, he could only suppress it.

Wealth can stir human's hearts!

Just a few elixirs had already completely altered the attitudes of the Xu family members.

However, although Qin Fang was unconscious, he knew someone from the Xu family searched his clothes while he was asleep. Besides the uncollected Flowing Shadow Divine Sword, they hadn't found any other treasures and had to give up.

If the Xu family truly found a few, dozens or hundreds of elixirs on Qin Fang, who knows what actions they would take… whether they would remain as polite as now is unknown.

Such a fuss was stirred up by mere elixirs, if a world-class treasure like Tears of the Stars was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable, it could lead to a bloodbath at the very least, even more tragic events could occur.

Never underestimate the ambition or madness of these martial artists; their destructive power far exceeds that of ordinary people… even professional soldiers seem merciful in comparison.

The matter of the Tears of the Stars is temporarily shelved by Qin Fang; he's tossed it into the Props Box, ensuring no one but himself can find it… he's naturally more at ease.

By this time, Qin Fang and the old man had reached the main hall, faintly hearing voices inside.

"Old Master Xu, this person killed our young master, no matter what, I must take him back to the Lu Family to face the family head's judgment..."

Just as Qin Fang walked in, he heard someone speaking in a very unfriendly tone to Old Master Xu, and the atmosphere in the hall was tense as if ready to erupt at any moment.

The speaker was a burly middle-aged man, appearing quite tough, carrying a volatile aura; a grandmaster-level peak expert, his cultivation was terrifying, with no match among Xu family's top experts in the hall.

Moreover, he brought along seven or eight people, all extremely formidable, with half of them being grandmaster-level experts.

This lineup was nearly as strong as the entire Xu family's fighting power, no wonder he dared to utter such arrogant words... and though Xu family was unusually angry, they could only grit their teeth and endure.

Evidently, these are the people from the Lu family looking for trouble.

"Humph..."

However, as Qin Fang and the old man entered, the atmosphere changed. The old man instantly erupted, sending a surge of sword qi toward the burly man.

Crash~~

The burly man's expression shifted, yet he showed no hint of fear, stamping his foot heavily, causing the ground to tremble and tiles to fly.

Thud thud thud thud~~~

The old man's sword qi collided with the tiles, shattering piece by piece... before it could reach the burly man, it was exhausted, its power was truly something to behold.

"Oh, I wondered who was so arrogant, turns out it's Lu Laoqi..."

Indifferent to the outcome, the old man merely glanced at the burly man and spoke with a mocking tone, then quickly walked over to Old Master Xu's side, clearly dismissive of the Lu family's men.

"Old Xu, you still haven't died..."

This burly man was, of course, Lu Qi sent by Lu Jianhong. Though quail-like before Lu Jianhong, he was different in front of the Xu family, confronting even the old man without backing down.

"Don't worry! Although I'm older than you, I'll definitely outlive you..."

The old man replied disdainfully with a strange smile.

Yet, while speaking, his gaze unintentionally swept over Qin Fang, who entered with him quietly...

"This old fellow... really is not easy to handle!"

Noticing the old man's glance, Qin Fang's smile remained, but inwardly he couldn't help but curse.

"Huh?"

Lu Qi also noticed the old man's look, and his gaze shifted from the Xu family members to Qin Fang, immediately shooting out a piercing gleam from his eyes... The aura around him suddenly surged.

"Are you the Qin Fang who killed our young master???"

Looking at the unbelievably young man in front of him, Lu Qi was reluctant to accept it in his heart, but he was almost certain of Qin Fang's identity.

"If you're talking about that idiot Lu Tianfeng, then you're right... He indeed died by my hand!"

Qin Fang shrugged indifferently as he spoke, even using such a "sharp" description for Lu Tianfeng.

"You're courting death!"

Lu Qi was never known for having a good temper, and he was causing trouble at the Xu family this time, so how could he possibly be polite?

However, what he didn't expect was that the "culprit" he was about to capture seemed to be ten or a hundred times more arrogant than himself, instantly infuriating him, feeling that his authority was being greatly challenged.

Lu Qi was notorious for being unruly, and once he got angry, he didn't care that it was the Xu family's territory. His body moved, directly pouncing toward Qin Fang... His first move was the most violent killing move, intending to kill Qin Fang on the spot.

"Hold on..."

However, just as he began to move, Qin Fang leisurely spoke, "What's this? They say you should be willing to accept defeat! It seems the famed Tian Nan Lu family can't handle losing... So much for the so-called Tian Nan Lu family!"

"Kid, what did you say?"

Lu Qi's body halted, glaring at Qin Fang with an extremely grim expression, speaking through gritted teeth.

"Nothing, just some idle chatter because I'm bored!"

Qin Fang responded with a radiant smile, as if he didn't even consider Lu Qi worth his attention.

"Huh?"

Lu Qi's face turned much darker, and his gaze at Qin Fang became quite peculiar. Despite his rough appearance, he was actually quite meticulous, or else Lu Jianhong wouldn't have sent him here.

The scene before him made Lu Qi sense something unusual, as if there were hidden secrets unknown to him.

Not only did Qin Fang appear relaxed and carefree, but even the Xu family didn't seem to have any intention of intervening to help...

"Could this Qin lad be really powerful?"

Lu Qi couldn't help but mumble to himself in his heart.

The battle between Lu Tianfeng and Qin Fang was known by only a few, like some experts from the Xu family and a few grandmaster-level experts... Even Xu Jiao and Xu Zixiong only had a vague idea.

The battle was too intense, the terrifying airwaves surging, completely suppressing their aura, and they couldn't see what exactly transpired.

The guy who reported back to the Lu family didn't know the details of the battle either.

Besides knowing that Lu Tianfeng was killed by Qin Fang, they weren't even sure to what extent Lu Tianfeng had transformed demonically...

Lu Qi took it for granted that Lu Tianfeng must have just started transforming demonically before being sneak-attacked by Qin Fang... As for full demonic transformation, even if Qin Fang didn't act, the Xu family and those grandmaster-level experts would have intervened.

But factually, Lu Tianfeng died at Qin Fang's hands, naturally inclining Lu Qi toward the former scenario.

With initial demonic transformation, Lu Tianfeng's strength likely surged to the grandmaster-level peak... and the duration wouldn't last long. Dealing with Lu Tianfeng under such conditions would be challenging, but not excessively so!

Although Qin Fang's age was indeed young, he may not have reached grandmaster level... but if he possessed some special treasures, then it would be a different story.

"No matter about that, capture the kid first... If he dares to resist, kill!"

To avoid long nights of anxiety and fearing interference from the Xu family, Lu Qi immediately made up his mind, and his gaze turned even sharper.

"Hmph... Insult my Lu family, you shall be punished!"

Lu Qi shouted fiercely, signaling to his subordinates, then immediately charged toward Qin Fang...

The experts from the Lu family moved as well, but they didn't participate in attacking Qin Fang. Instead, they split into several positions, forming a formation to ensnare Qin Fang tightly.

"Disrespect us and refuse to behave... Do you really think you're invincible?"

Seeing the Lu family act so rudely, Qin Fang knew that this matter would not be resolved peacefully, so he didn't hold back either. His expression changed, and his tone turned much colder!
