Chapter 104 Closing the Door to Beat the Dog, I Have a Sword
Four golden beams shot straight into the sky, converging tens of meters above the ground to form an inverted, semi-transparent, golden bowl-shaped light shield, completely sealing off the entire Lu family courtyard and the white marble plaza in front of it.
The air was thick with the stench of blood and swirling dust.
Lu Zhentian stared intently at the light shield, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat. He subconsciously took a half step back, his cloth shoes scraping against the bluestone with a dry, grinding sound.
The First Elder and Second Elder, who were sitting in the grand chairs, suddenly stood up. These two, who had enjoyed the esteem of the Yanjing martial arts world for half their lives and were at the half-step divine realm, even had their beards trembling uncontrollably.
The third brother died too quickly.
Not even a complete corpse was left; it exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
"Brother, this kid's weird! There's something strange about this formation, let's retreat!"
The Second Elder roared, and the bluestone slab beneath his feet shattered. He transformed into a gray afterimage, moving at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow, rushing straight towards the pillar of light on the west side of the courtyard.
He had practiced the "Cloud Piercing Step" his entire life and was confident that even if he couldn't win a fight, no one could stop him from escaping and saving his life.
Lu Yuan stood still, not even lifting his eyelids.
He was bowing his head, carefully channeling a wisp of gentle wood-elemental spiritual energy into his father Lu Changfeng's body to protect the broken meridians.
"Bang!"
A muffled thud that sent chills down your spine.
The Second Elder's body slammed violently into the golden pillar of light.
The seemingly thin, gossamer-thin light barrier didn't even ripple. Instead, the Second Elder, traveling at twice the speed he had initially charged forward, was violently thrown back by an overwhelming force.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood in mid-air and his body slammed against the edge of the bronze cauldron like a tattered sack.
"Click!"
The sound of breaking ribs was crisp and clear. The Second Elder collapsed to the ground, vomiting large amounts of blood clots, unable to even crawl.
The entire place was deathly silent, with only the rattling sound of the wind blowing the broken iron chain.
The Lu family's elite guards, who were usually so arrogant and domineering, were now completely drained of strength. Their legs were weak, and their hands holding swords trembled so much that they couldn't even grip the hilts.
"Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan, listen to me!"
Lu Changfeng, in his wheelchair, finally broke down.
A foul-smelling yellow liquid flowed down his trouser leg and dripped onto the bluestone slab. He gripped the armrests of the wheelchair tightly with both hands, desperately leaning forward, his face covered in tears and snot.
"I was forced! It's all my uncle's fault! Lu Zhentian forced me to do this!"
Lu Changfeng pointed at Lu Zhentian, who was hiding behind the armchair, and howled in a hoarse voice.
"He had your dad's collarbones pierced! He also orchestrated the car accident that killed your mom! Brother Yuan, I'm your cousin, we share the same blood. Spare my life, and I'll be your dog from now on!"
Lu Yuan laid his father flat on a clean stone slab.
He stood up and turned to look at Lu Changfeng.
"Are you worthy?"
Lu Yuan took a step forward.
The Grand Elder bit his tongue, forcibly suppressing the fear in his heart, and quickly formed hand seals in front of his chest. A surge of violent red true energy erupted from his body, condensing in mid-air into a three-meter-long crimson weapon.
"Don't be so arrogant, you brat! I'll fight you to the death!"
The elder roared and thrust his hands forward violently. The crimson weapon, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, aimed straight for Lu Yuan's back.
Lu Yuan didn't even turn his head.
He simply raised his right hand casually and slapped the other side of the face.
"Smack!"
The crimson weapon, which contained the life's work of a half-step Divine Realm cultivator, shattered into countless red lights the moment it touched Lu Yuan's palm.
The violent palm strike continued unabated, slapping the elder's face hard from a distance of more than ten meters.
The elder's head spun around his neck three times.
"thump."
The headless corpse crashed straight to the ground, blood spurting more than two meters high from its neck cavity.
Seeing this, Lu Changfeng made a strange "clucking" sound in his throat, rolled his eyes, and fainted from fright.
Lu Yuan walked to the wheelchair.
He raised his right foot and stomped heavily on Lu Changfeng's chest.
"Bang!"
The steel wheelchair, along with Lu Changfeng's body, was shoved half a meter into the bluestone pavement. The muffled cracking of bones and the sticky sound of ruptured internal organs mingled together. Lu Changfeng didn't even have time to scream before he was turned into a pile of minced meat.
Lu Yuan withdrew his foot and rubbed the sole of his shoe on the clean stone slab.
He looked up at Lu Zhentian, who was trembling behind a grand chair a dozen meters away.
"now you."
The fat on Lu Zhentian's face twitched violently.
He stared at the corpses and blood on the ground, his mind reeling.
That useless Chen Tie! Why haven't the reinforcements from the Celestial Surveillance Bureau arrived yet?!
This little beast is not human! He's a god! He has definitely broken through to the true god realm!
Lu Zhentian gritted his teeth, put his hands behind his back, and reached for a hidden protrusion under the back of the armchair.
"Lu Yuan, do you really think you're invincible?"
Lu Zhentian, forcing himself to maintain the air of the family head, roared in a hoarse voice.
"This is Yanjing! You killed the Heavenly Surveillance Bureau's retainers and slaughtered powerful families. Once the state machinery starts operating, even if you are a god, you will be reduced to ashes!"
Lu Yuan watched his little actions but made no attempt to stop him.
"You talk too much nonsense."
Lu Yuan raised his hand and formed a sword shape with his fingers.
A pure golden sword light flickered uncertainly at his fingertips.
Lu Zhentian's eyes turned red, and he suddenly pressed the mechanism behind the armchair.
"You forced me to this! Since you want to die, I'll drag you down to hell with me today!"
"Boom!"
As the mechanism was activated, a thunderous roar suddenly echoed from the depths of the Lu family's courtyard house.
