"You..."
Zhao Wuji and the others were enraged, their faces turning livid with fury, yet they dared not make a move. The reason they dared to brazenly co to the Lu Family and demand Lu Tianxing to cripple himself was entirely because soone was backing him up from behind.
But now, looking at the situation, how could Lu Tianxing allow them to toy with him? Not to ntion Shen Manjun and others standing by his side, the most important thing now was that the Lu Family was nothing like the rumors outside, claiming they did not want Lu Tianxing to return ho. If they truly didn’t want Lu Tianxing back, would Old Sir Lu let him cause chaos in the Lu Family?
"It’s not good, we’ve been tricked."
Thinking of this, Zhao Wuji and Sun Qian’s faces changed dramatically, they weren’t fools. Previously, they were so focused on revenge that they overlooked this point. Now that they’d co to their senses, a slight thought imdiately revealed the truth — it was clearly a ploy to lure out the snakes, to draw out everyone with ill intentions towards the Lu Family and eliminate them all.
No wonder they had encountered no obstruction upon entering the Lu Family, and everything went smoothly. It turned out the other side had deliberately opened the door, waiting for them to walk in.
Looking at the expressionless Old Sir Lu, everyone felt a chill down their spine. What a play, how foolish they were to jump right into it. But now, they couldn’t retreat; even if they wanted to withdraw, the Lu Family and Lu Tianxing would never let them go. All they could do now was brace themselves and hold on.
Just as Zhao Wuji and the others’ expressions were changing unpredictably, Mu Qingxue appeared at the gate of the Lu Family, her face sowhat pale. On her way to the Lu Family, she saw soone clearing corpses, evidently indicating there had been an attempt to intercept Lu Tianxing halfway. And outside on the road, a large number of cars were parked, which clearly ant Lu Tianxing had already entered the Lu Family. She needed to hurry.
After getting out of the car, Mu Qingxue hurriedly walked towards the gate of the Lu Family, with Gongsun Ye following behind her.
Mu Qingxue walked to the gate, intending to step inside, but Gongsun Ye reached out to stop her: "Miss, are you really sure? The Young Master is also inside. You should think twice. Why don’t we go back first? With the Young Master there, nothing will happen to Lu Tianxing. You could call after it’s all over."
Mu Qingxue glanced at Gongsun Ye and said softly, "Grandpa Gongsun, I know you’re doing this for my good, but I don’t want to wait. I want to stand with him, sharing in both advance and retreat. Whether he accepts or not, I will do what I love."
Gongsun Ye sighed gently at Mu Qingxue’s words, choosing not to say anything further. He had watched Mu Qingxue grow up and knew well how determined she could be; once she made up her mind, not even nine oxen could pull her back.
Mu Qingxue took a deep breath, without hesitation, lifted her foot, and walked towards the Lu Family Mansion.
Mu Qingxue’s love was humble, even more so than those like Rose, because her devotion might not yield any return, yet she was still willing, without regret.
anwhile, in the hall, Zhao Wuji and Sun Qian’s faces were changing unpredictably. Looking at the people of the Lu Family, their expressions twisted in horror: "It was you, you deliberately acted yesterday, giving others the illusion that the Lu Family did not welco Lu Tianxing back. And today, you were waiting for us to take the bait, to catch us all in one net, weren’t you?"
Liang Shidao, standing by, was swept with shock, his face slightly changing too. No wonder he felt sothing was off upon arriving at the Lu Family. It turned out all this was an act by Lu Haoyue and Lu Tianxing; their aim was to draw them out, then capture them all in one go.
Liang Shidao’s face shifted twice, quickly regaining composure. He watched the scene without expression, leaving others guessing what he might be thinking.
"Figured it out? Seems you’re not too dumb, but unfortunately, it’s now a bit too late. Daring to plot against our Lu Family — you should have been dead long ago."
At this mont, Lu Haoyue erged from behind the main hall with a large knife, handing it to Old Sir Lu before looking at Zhao Wuji and saying, "Did my third uncle kill the wrong person back then? Aren’t all of your families soaked with blood, forcing the good into harlotry? Your sons and grandsons act wantonly, relying on their family to oppress and exploit. Don’t they deserve to die? Now I think, my third uncle’s biggest mistake in life was not wiping out all of you back then."
"Nonsense, can your family mbers compare with those country bumpkins?"
Zhao Wuji’s face turned bright red, only managing to squeeze out a sentence after a long pause.
"Is that so? So by that reasoning, as long as our strength surpasses yours, we can kill you at will?"
A clear, disdainful voice suddenly ca from behind.
Upon hearing another clear and pleasant voice, the faces of Zhao Wuji and others beca even more unsightly because each voice that sounded was there to support Lu Tianxing, and the forces were exceptionally strong. What the heck was going on?
Sitting beside Sima Lingyun, Mu Qingchuan’s face turned even more somber upon hearing this voice, his eyes glaring fiercely at Lu Tianxing, as if he wished to tear him to pieces, because he knew this voice all too well — it was clearly his sister Mu Qingxue’s.
And when Mu Qingxue appeared in everyone’s view, Zhao Wuji and the others’ faces beca even more spectacular. They were certainly not unfamiliar with Mu Qingxue, knowing she was the Mu Family’s precious gem. So even went as far as sending their family mbers to Beijing, hoping their family could be linked with Mu Qingxue, thus forming an alliance with the Mu Family.
But why was Mu Qingxue here now, and why wasn’t she appearing with Mu Qingchuan? Could she be here to help Lu Tianxing too?
And upon seeing Mu Qingxue, Liang Shidao’s heart surged with turmoil. He never expected such a simple matter to escalate to this extent. Even if Lu Tianxing had a fallout with the Lu Family, judging by these ergent forces, it’s unlikely the Lu Family could withstand them.
Now, Liang Shidao was filled with deep regret. Had he known this would happen, he would have prevented his grandfather from plotting against Lu Tianxing even if it killed him. But now, it was too late to back down. His only hope now was that Lu Tianxing was bluffing, unwilling to kill.
As for the Yang Family, Liang Shidao didn’t even hope for their presence. Given the grudge between the Yang and Lu Families, if the Yang Family dared to appear, Old Sir Lu’s knife would be stained with blood at the first opportunity. Not to ntion the Shen Family and Mu Family’s involvent, the Yang Family wouldn’t dare offend them.
