"Lady Fangfang, are they really just acting?" Bai Zhiqing turned her head and asked Dou Fangfang, who was equally shocked beside her.
Dou Fangfang took a deep breath and said, "Miss Bai, rest assured, they must be acting. I believe Haoyue wouldn’t act against his own brother. Otherwise, Old Master Lu wouldn’t have chosen him as the heir to the Lu Family."
"Really?"
Bai Zhiqing gently nodded but looked worriedly at the distant flas illuminating the sky, her fingers tightly clasped together, praying for Lu Tianxing.
In Lu Haoyue’s villa, heat waves rolled like tides, and flas soared. Even the ground seed unable to withstand the power, burned into dark holes. The area around Lu Tianxing was more like encircled by fire, with the ground akin to molten lava.
Despite the intense heat of the flas, outside the villa, there was no sensation of heat waves. It was as if all the heat was contained within the villa itself. Even the leaves of the trees remained uncurled, showcasing Lu Haoyue’s exquisite control of True Qi without the slightest waste.
The raging flas rolled and burned, enveloping Lu Tianxing, trying to turn him into ashes.
Yet, Lu Tianxing stood motionless in the midst of the fire, unaffected as though true gold fears no fire. True Qi coursed through his veins like a flowing river, blocking all flas from reaching his body. Suddenly, Lu Tianxing’s heart stirred; he flipped his palm, releasing the Sky Flipping Seal again. With a palm strike, the heavens seed to reverse as if layers of the sky were pressing down.
Boom!
With a single Sky Flipping Seal, Lu Tianxing’s palm carried terrifying power, striking heavily at the head of the Fire Phoenix. The enormous Fire Phoenix let out a sorrowful cry, shattered instantly, and the broken flas splashed everywhere, igniting the surrounding flowers, grass, and trees. The villa behind Lu Haoyue erupted into a roaring blaze as if drenched in gasoline.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Facing Lu Tianxing’s fierce strike, Lu Haoyue’s expression changed dramatically, retreating several steps before steadying himself, his face pale.
"The Lu Family’s monstrous genius? A re waste; do you think you can inherit Lu Family’s head position? It seems the Lu Family is just so-so."
Lu Tianxing, having slain the Fire Phoenix with one blow, stood proudly, looking at Lu Haoyue with a mocking smile. Since it’s an act, why not act thoroughly? Otherwise, the spectators outside wouldn’t be pleased.
"You... you dare to mock like this, I... I will kill you today."
Lu Haoyue montarily paused before erupting into fury, his face grim as if a proud, arrogant person was trampled underfoot. He looked at Lu Tianxing as one would a mortal enemy.
"Nine Heavens Leaving Fire, incinerate the world."
Lu Haoyue suddenly roared, True Qi billowing upward, transforming into flas behind him which ford a painting. In the painting, flas rolled, becoming countless fierce fires where seemingly nurous faces twisted in agony, like beings being burned by the flas.
"Lu Tianxing, you forced my hand. I didn’t intend to use this move, but you drove to it. I want you dead, tornted by flas for eternity, that your agony never ends, unable to live or die."
Lu Haoyue roared continuously, furiously urging True Qi, adopting a desperate stance.
"The Nine Heavens Leaving Fire Technique is said to be the Lu Family’s unmatched skill, a legendary divine martial art. It’s rumored to evaporate rivers when perfected."
"Such terrifying flas, I sense terrible power within. This ti, it seems Lu Haoyue intends to fight to the death."
"Hahaha, the drama finally unfolds! The collision of two Lu Family geniuses suggests a battle to the death. The drama unfolds; soon Lu Family people will arrive, whom will they support then?"
As Lu Haoyue roared, representatives from various families hiding around showed schadenfreude. In Jiangnan for so many years, they’d been oppressed under Lu Family’s reign, living at their rcy. Now, watching internal strife within Lu Family was indeed joyful.
"Finally showing your ace? Unfortunately for you, there’s no chance."
Lu Tianxing seemingly ignored those around him, murmured, and then his figure leapt like lightning, his palm flipped, and his hand covered the sky, as though the heavens were collapsing, descending upon Lu Haoyue’s head.
"Sky Flipping Seal!"
One palm strike, the heavens reverse.
"Co, let’s see if you can handle this."
Seeing this, Lu Haoyue’s expression contorted, continuously urging Nine Heavens Leaving Fire Technique towards Lu Tianxing.
The two were not holding back; it was a fight to mutual destruction, either one dies, or the other perishes.
"Enough, let it end here."
As Lu Tianxing and Lu Haoyue prepared to fight fiercely, a cold voice suddenly echoed in the void, and instantly, the entire space seed to plunge into bitter winter, an endless chill hung over the villa.
Crash!
The incinerating painting behind Lu Haoyue entirely disintegrated, and the True Qi returned into Lu Haoyue’s body. With one move, Lu Haoyue’s attack was nullified.
Lu Tianxing, likewise, felt a chilling force closing in, seemingly freezing his True Qi. He moved his arm, delivering a palm strike into the void while retreating.
Bam!
Lu Tianxing’s True Qi Palm Seal flew only a short distance before being frozen into ice, falling from the void.
An elder in a Zhongshan suit appeared in the void, glanced at the state of Lu Tianxing and Lu Haoyue, sighed, and said, "Young Master Tianxing, could you please stop? You and Young Master Haoyue are brothers; why resort to fratricide?"
This elder was none other than Lu Family’s steward Lu Chuan.
"Why resort to fratricide?"
Lu Tianxing coldly glared at Lu Chuan, and said chillingly, "That’s a question you should ask Lu Haoyue. Why did he kidnap my wife? You tell to stop, but why should I? Besides, I’m not a part of the Lu Family; you have no authority to command ."
"Don’t waste words with him. Lu Chuan, I command you as the heir to the family head, kill him, kill him for ." Lu Haoyue shouted beside him, murderous intent in his eyes.
