"If that’s what you think, then you’re not worthy of being part of the Lu Family."
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Lu Haoyue softly said, "Although I really don’t want you to return to the Lu Family because you’ll bring countless troubles, my wishes can’t change the fact that you are a Lu Family mber. Moreover, I dislike anyone plotting against the Lu Family and even more so those targeting Lu Family mbers from the shadows. Regardless of whether we have conflicts, at the end of the day, Liang Shidao is rely an outsider. What right does he have to interfere with our Lu Family’s matters? Family issues can be fought out behind closed doors, but if outsiders interfere, deal with them first, then handle family matters."
This ti, Lu Tianxing saw Lu Haoyue in a completely new light. Lu Haoyue was indeed remarkable, lacking Liang Shidao’s ability to hide a dagger behind a smile, but not far off either.
More importantly, from Lu Haoyue’s words, Lu Tianxing couldn’t detect any insincerity; it was all genuinely spoken. That’s why Lu Tianxing respected Lu Haoyue—family disputes can be as intense as they like, but outsiders are not allowed to ddle, a basic principle.
"I know Liang Shidao’s sche. I ca to experience the Lu Family’s heir, and you didn’t disappoint . You are indeed capable of becoming the Lu Family head’s successor," Lu Tianxing earnestly told Lu Haoyue.
"Really?"
Lu Haoyue seed to appreciate Lu Tianxing’s complint, smiling as he said, "However, if Liang Shidao wants to plot against us, we shouldn’t let him down. How about we put on a show for him and see how many people harbor ill intentions towards our Lu Family, lure them out, and capture them all?"
"Sure, to be honest, I think my acting skills are top-notch. I’m an Oscar-winning actor in the making."
Lu Tianxing’s face showed a slight smile. He wasn’t a fool and had long guessed that Liang Shidao easily brought him to see Lu Haoyue because he liked conflicts between him and Lu Haoyue. Liang Shidao could then step in as a peacemaker.
This was Liang Shidao’s plan—if Lu Tianxing could return to the Lu Family and gain their acknowledgnt, it would be the best, as he would be on Lu Tianxing’s side and wouldn’t forget his benefits. If Lu Tianxing couldn’t return, it didn’t matter; he wouldn’t have offended Lu Haoyue, and nothing much would change.
More importantly, if Lu Tianxing really clashed with Lu Haoyue, given Lu Tianxing’s temperant, he wouldn’t let it go, inevitably fighting to the end with the Lu Family. Whether the Lu Family destroyed Lu Tianxing or Lu Tianxing destroyed the Lu Family, it would be a very favorable outco for the Liang Family.
This was Liang Shidao’s idea, a win-win scenario—an excellent plan, except he’d forgotten to consider the relationship between Lu Bowen, Lu Haoyue’s father, and Lu Tianzhan, Lu Tianxing’s father.
Back in the day in Beijing, besides the Old Master of Lu Family, Lu Bowen was the biggest supporter, and it was Lu Tianzhan who saved Lu Bowen’s life.
"In that case, how about I help you achieve your dream of being an Oscar-winning actor? When I have ti, I’ll have Oscar present you with an award," Lu Haoyue said with a smile.
"In that case, let’s put on a good show."
Lu Tianxing’s lips curled into a smile, abruptly moving his arm and slamming a palm toward Lu Haoyue’s chest.
"Bang!"
Without any resistance, Lu Haoyue was slamd by Lu Tianxing’s palm, flying out and crashing heavily into a billiard table, which shattered under the trendous force.
The sudden change left everyone in the box stunned. Their gazes simultaneously fell on Lu Tianxing and Lu Haoyue, unable to believe that the two, just chatting and laughing monts ago, had suddenly started fighting.
Seeing this, Liang Shidao imdiately smiled, realizing that Lu Tianxing and Lu Haoyue weren’t as harmonious as they appeared, and now they had finally fallen out. The next act of the play was about to unfold.
Lu Haoyue walked out from the shattered billiard table with a gloomy expression. With each step, his aura grew stronger, exuding wave after wave of intense heat as if setting the air ablaze.
"Lu Tianxing, you’re too impudent. I tried to persuade you kindly, but you refused to listen. Let tell you, thinking you can enter the Lu Family is sheer lunacy. I, Lu Haoyue, am the rightful heir of the Lu Family head, and you’re not. You’d best leave from where you ca, or else you won’t walk out of Suzhou City."
Lu Haoyue’s tone dripped with murderous intent.
"Rightful heir, you say? Lu Haoyue, you take yourself too seriously. Offer a billion dollars to leave the Lu Family—you’re dreaming. Let be clear; I’m determined to return to the Lu Family and beco its head."
Lu Tianxing coldly laughed at Lu Haoyue, "What, you’re not convinced? Do you doubt I’ll kill you today? People in the Mythical Realm have often perished at my hands. You’re nothing special."
"Arrogant fool, then co see how strong you really are!"
Lu Haoyue’s face flashed a grim smile, throwing himself at Lu Tianxing, surrounding himself with a fiery torrent of True Qi that enveloped Lu Tianxing’s head.
"Sky Flipping Seal."
Lu Tianxing didn’t dodge. His arm moved, and a palm landed, shattering the flas into pieces, bursting into fragnts amidst cries around them. The won lounging on the sofas scread shrilly and hastily fled outside.
The scions, however, released slivers of True Qi, blocking the flas, standing there with grim expressions.
"Lu Haoyue, your strength is only so-so."
Lu Tianxing sneered, charging once more at Lu Haoyue.
"Hmph, neither are you anything special. Today, I’ll end you."
Lu Haoyue also charged at Lu Tianxing.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Both knew where they were and didn’t use much True Qi. Nevertheless, their fists collided like a storm, unleashing countless waves of energy, turning table fragnts into dust with their blows.
Within a short ti, they’d exchanged hundreds of moves, their punches creating ripples that seed to shatter the air. In the entire room, ferocious airflow roared, infused with a wild aura, as if two beasts were clashing.
"Bang!"
Lu Haoyue landed a heavy punch on Lu Tianxing’s chest, while Lu Tianxing simultaneously kicked Lu Haoyue’s chest. Both retreated several ters, staring at each other, brimming with murderous intent.
