Chapter 278: Chapter 205: Calculating Against the Unwary, Bow Again to the Innate! Shock!_3
“Just with you, you’re not qualified to know my na.”
However, Lu Qing didn’t linger a mont longer. With a few jumps, he had already disappeared into the forest.
His speed was incredibly fast, his movent technique extrely agile, seemingly in no way inferior to those in the Innate Realm around him.
During this process, they still were unable to sense any trace of the Innate Essence from him.
Watching the direction in which Lu Qing vanished, several Innate Realm Martial Artists remained silent for a long ti.
It wasn’t until Lu Qing’s presence had completely disappeared that the middle-aged man with a complexion like white jade suddenly said,
...
“What do you think, is he truly from the Postnatal Realm, or is it a disguise?”
“Does it make a difference?” the City Lord said. “He was able to injure Mr. Lin with a single strike, and his strength is no lesser than ours. Unless we join forces, none of us can detain him. The question is, do you dare to stop him?”
The man with a complexion like white jade fell silent.
Indeed, if they had wanted to stop Lu Qing just now, it would have been possible with their combined strength.
But they didn’t dare.
There was no helping it—Lu Qing was simply too mysterious.
His strength, even more so, was strangely unpredictable.
To be able to defeat two Innate Realm Experts with just the Qi and Blood Power of his Postnatal Realm physical body was simply inconceivable.
Such a feat, they had neither seen nor even heard of before.
And for such a terrifying individual, to say he had no profound background, they absolutely wouldn’t believe it.
Realizing this, the City Lord and the others no longer wanted to offend Lu Qing.
Who knew what kind of terrifying force might be behind him?
Thus, when Lu Qing wanted to leave, they didn’t dare to block him.
“Indeed, the rumors are true. The world is about to change; devils are about to rise. Who would have thought we’d encounter such an unparalleled devil today.”
After a long silence, the middle-aged man with a complexion like white jade suddenly sighed.
The remaining three, upon hearing these words, felt a stir in their hearts.
What the man with a complexion like white jade was referring to was a rumor that had been circulating in the world over the past two years.
It was said that a great change in heaven and earth was imminent, and that the world would face drastic changes. Geniuses and devils would erge out of nowhere, bringing chaos to the world.
Originally, they were sowhat skeptical about this rumor.
But the mysterious young man they encountered today had made them think that the rumor might indeed be true.
“Looking at it now, Old Lady Zheng really has bad luck, to have provoked such a terrible devil.”
The man with a complexion like white jade then said with schadenfreude.
Among those present, if anyone had the greatest disdain for Old Lady Zheng, it was undoubtedly him.
Back when he had not yet stepped into the Innate Realm, he had been suppressed by the Zheng Family quite often.
Now with the old lady dead, his joy was written all over his face.
The others knew of his grudge with the Zheng Family. Except for the refined elder whose expression seed sowhat downcast, the remaining two showed no particular reaction.
“Gentlen, what shall we do next?”
The elder with white hair and a youthful face asked.
“Of course we go to the Zheng Family, open the grave of Zheng Family’s eldest son, and see if what the man just said is true,” the City Lord said.
“But…”
The refined elder was about to say sothing, but was imdiately interrupted by the City Lord: “Mr. Lin, don’t forget, it is strictly forbidden by Holy Mountain to use living people as sacrifices. If Old Lady Zheng really did commit such an act, I, as the City Lord, must investigate this matter thoroughly and carry out severe punishnt!”
The refined elder opened his mouth, but ultimately closed it.
He knew that the City Lord had every legitimate reason to investigate, and that he had no grounds to stop him.
But he also knew that if anything was uncovered, the Zheng Family would certainly face severe punishnt.
Thinking of the promise he had made to that person all those years ago, the refined elder sighed to himself, at a loss as to what was best to do.
