C1820 The Lu Family Was Furious
Some of the people who knew the inside story felt that the Hou mansion valued relationships and loyalty. Although Lin Yi and the young master of the Lyu family were the ones who were at fault in this matter, the fact that the Hou mansion was willing to offend the Lyu family in such a situation meant that they had to protect Lin Yi. This undoubtedly caused the crowd to discuss amongst themselves, and all of them were praising the Hou mansion.
However, there were also some who felt that it wasn't worth it. The Secret Martial Realm was a place with a cold atmosphere. So what if Lin Yi really saved the young master of the Hou family? Just because of this, they had bumped into another top power. It was not worth it. In fact, these people all felt that Lyu family would surely be furious. They would start a war.
The Lyu family.
In the main hall, Lyu Shu's expression was extremely gloomy. He looked at the corpse on the ground without saying a word.
"This Hou family is really courting death. The reason why our Lyu family didn't attack them back then... Now, even the Black Stone City Lord is dead. The Hou family has lost their leader, but they still dare to provoke the Lyu family. They must be courting death."
"You're right. This Hou family is courting death. In the entire family, except for Hou Qinglin, the rest of them were only at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Cultivator. Compared to the Lyu family, there is a huge gap. If they are willing to be honest... Our Lyu family might be able to bypass them for a period of time, but now... Hmph. "
" I wonder what Hou Qinglin is thinking. For the sake of a so-called saviour? Hehe, since when did Hou Qinglin become so benevolent? When his so-called good brother died, I didn't see him take revenge on our Lyu family."
Many elders of the Lyu family were discussing amongst themselves, feeling that Hou Qinglin's actions were extremely arrogant. He expressed that he must be punished severely, and that he must destroy the Hou mansion, including the surrounding cities. They all knew how powerful the Lyu family was.
"Destroy the Hou mansion? You all go?"
Lyu Shu stood at the head of the hall and looked coldly at the people below. Suddenly, he spoke.
After he said that, everyone fell silent. Where are they going? What kind of joke was this? That Hou Qinglin was an Advanced Qi Refining Cultivator, and he also had the Bone Shatterer in his hand. It wouldn't be a problem for an expert of the same level to fight two of them. This was also the reason why the Lyu family hadn't touched the Hou mansion for so many years. With just them alone, they still wanted to deal with the Hou mansion?
"Hou Qinglin's actions are too abnormal, as if he is openly declaring war with the Lyu family. I guess they must have something else to rely on, otherwise... It wouldn't be like this. If he were to go in there in a fit of anger... This isn't the doing of the wise man."
An old man said.
This was the Great Elder of Lyu family, Lu Youfa. He was an old fox from the previous generation of Lyu family. Although his cultivation base was only at the Peak of Sixth Layer, and he had yet to enter the seventh floor, however, in the Lyu family, he could be considered as a person of high prestige, and he was even more respected than the entire family.
"Great Elder is right. There must be a reason why Hou mansion did this. Before the truth is fully investigated, no one is allowed to act rashly. As for Hou Qinglin... Humph, I reckon he won't be able to hold on much longer. "
Lyu Shu coldly harrumphed. In his heart, he was secretly making a judgment. A few years ago, because of that bronze sword, the expert of Lyu family had no choice but to go into secluded cultivation for a long period of time. But even so, there were still signs of him going mad. It was hard to say whether he would be able to attack again. That bronze sword was definitely an evil weapon.
Hou Qinglin was stabbed by the tip of the sword. Even with his profound cultivation base, he was still able to resist it. However, judging from his old injuries that had yet to recover, he estimated that he was not far from death's door. Lyu Shu knew clearly in his heart that this was the time to fight Hou Qinglin to the death. He would most likely be dragged to death by ___ who wasn't long from death. He, Lyu Shu, didn't have the resolve to risk his life for the sake of his family.
"By the way, there is still half a month left before the recruitment of the True Fire Sect. Although our Black Stone City has suffered a great blow, it is still a key city. We should find a way to find out who the messenger of True Fire Sect is. Perhaps it will be beneficial to our plan. "
Lyu Shu waved his hand and said in a flat tone, "Also, I'm afraid that not only are we feeling uncomfortable, the Sun family should be even more panicked now that Hou mansion has become so powerful all of a sudden. Contact Patriarch Sun and tell him that I want to see him."
"Yes."
The people of Lyu family immediately nodded their heads respectfully, sneering in their hearts.
They knew that Lyu Shu was going to make a move on the Hou mansion if he made such an arrangement. However, the opportunity wasn't ripe yet. However... It wouldn't take long before this opportunity arrived. Once it arrived, the Hou mansion would have no more strength to resist. So what if it was Hou Qinglin? Could it be that the heavens were overturned?
As for the man who dared to kill the young master of the Lyu family, let him live for a few more days. In any case, it wouldn't take long for him to die in the hands of the Lyu family. No one was allowed to challenge the dignity of the Lyu family, not the Hou mansion. Not to mention the young man who dared to kill the people of the Lyu family.
...
At the same time, in the Hou mansion.
After Lin Yi cured Patriarch Hou's illness, he didn't leave. Instead, he went straight to the Hou mansion. Of course, he didn't covet pleasure. Instead, he had been cultivating in the stone room for three days. Finally, he woke up.
"Late seventh level. I really didn't expect that the treatment this time would bring additional effects to Patriarch Hou."
Lin Yi opened his eyes and exhaled. A strange expression flashed across his eyes.
When he was treating Hou Qinglin earlier, he had used some means to absorb the terrifying corpse Qi. However, he didn't expect that he would be able to refine the corpse Qi. Moreover, it also contained a large amount of medicinal strength. It must have something to do with Hou Qinglin's many years of seeking treatment. After refining the vigorous spiritual energy, Lin Yi broke through to the late seventh level.
"This breakthrough can actually only be considered a coincidence. If I continue to seek for a breakthrough, I'm afraid it won't be so simple. The peak of the seventh level, the eighth level..."
Lin Yi took a deep breath and immediately exited seclusion. Then, he saw a young girl sitting outside the stone room, just like the younger sister next door.
"Mr. Lin, you have finally exited your seclusion."
Hou Lan quickly stood up and sized him up. He chuckled and said, "Mr. Lin, your strength seems to have improved again. In the past, he could still feel a slight edge, but now, it had been completely restrained. This seems to be the realm of returning to simplicity, right? "
"Returning to simplicity? It's too far away."
Lin Yi shook his head. He couldn't be bothered to discuss this topic any further. He immediately asked, "What's the matter?"
"Regarding the matter of forging weapons, my father told me to wait here for you to come out of your seclusion. After that, he will bring you to the treasure vault of Hou family to collect the materials. My father said that you have done a great deed for Hou mansion. You can take as much as you want."
