Chapter 2432: Chapter 2433: Sinister Intentions (Part 2)
"That’s right. Because you revealed the Treasure Bead, now Lü Xiuming has set his sights on you. Leave here immediately, and the farther, the better, or both you and Xiao Ya will be in grave danger," Lü Zhengqing said solemnly.
Lü Yangyan was startled, "What’s going on? It’s just a Treasure Bead, why would he target us?"
Lü Zhengqing felt helpless, realizing his former disciple still doubted him, or he wouldn’t be questioning everything.
He quickly recounted the matter concerning Lv Feichen, then solemnly spoke.
"When I heard the waiter mention siblings, I suspected it might be you. I comforted myself, hoping it was merely a coincidence. But upon entering the jewelry store, the residual True Martial Essence confirmed it was indeed you. Yet, I refrained from showing any signs, or Lü Xiuming would never spare us!"
"That’s why I could only endure until this late hour to meet you secretly!"
Upon finishing the explanation, Lü Zhengqing looked at Lü Yangyan and said sternly, "Yangyan, I know you harbor many grievances against me, but I genuinely mean no harm. Leave now while they haven’t noticed anything yet!"
After hearing this explanation, Lü Yangyan’s expression changed dramatically, and after a quick thought, he nodded immediately.
"Thank you, Master, for informing me of this news. I’ll leave here with my sister right away!"
Lü Yangyan was well aware of his current predicament.
Not only did he possess those Treasure Beads, but the Spirit Stones given by Zhu Zhesheng were also a tremendous fortune.
If these were exposed to Lü Xiuming and others, he and his sister would indeed be in danger.
Having once been expelled from the sect, he knew better than anyone the true nature of Lü Xiuming and others within the True Martial Sect.
Just as he was about to wake Lü Xiaoya next door and get up to leave.
A cold laugh suddenly came from outside the house.
"What an affectionate master-disciple scene!"
Upon hearing these words, both Lü Zhengqing and Lü Yangyan inside the room shuddered.
At the same time, the outer wall of the house shattered with a boom, revealing a group of people outside.
Lü Xiuming stood in mid-air, followed by members of the True Martial Sect.
With a cold smile, Lü Xiuming looked at Lü Zhengqing, "Lü Zhengqing, I never thought you would betray the sect and do such a thing!"
Lü Zhengqing’s face turned extremely unsightly, "Lü Xiuming, you actually followed me secretly?"
"Nonsense, how else could I find this kid’s residence if I didn’t follow you secretly? To tell you the truth, when I entered the jewelry store, I already sensed an anomaly. That aura was definitely from the True Martial Sect, and your behavior later confirmed my suspicions. I’ve been watching you closely, and I caught you as expected!"
With that, Lü Xiuming turned his head to Lü Yangyan and sneered, "Long time no see, Lü Yangyan!"
Lü Yangyan’s eyes gradually reddened.
The mastermind who forcibly expelled him and his sister from the sect, he remembered vividly.
Under Master Lü Zhengqing’s protection, not many bothered him.
Even though Xiao Ya sometimes acted impulsively, it was manageable.
But just because Xiao Ya accidentally collided with Lü Xiuming once, he held a grudge, eventually finding an excuse to persuade the sect leader to expel them forcefully.
Lü Yangyan knew well, without his master’s pleading, he and his sister might have died.
Seeing the enemy again, his eyes naturally turned red with anger.
Lü Xiuming noticed the deep hatred emanating from Lü Yangyan but remained indifferent, coldly sneering.
"Lü Yangyan, you needn’t hate me. Let’s speak frankly: hand over the Treasure Beads you carry, and I might let you go for being a True Martial descendant!"
Lü Yangyan laughed in anger, "What Treasure Beads? I don’t understand! And Lü Xiuming, do you really think I fear you?"
Though Lü Yangyan intended to leave quickly to avoid trouble, now that Lü Xiuming had come, avoidance was futile, so he remained cold, uncompromising.
And his attitude enraged Lü Xiuming.
With a sinister laugh, he said, "Well, aren’t you a bold young man. Whether you fear me or not is irrelevant, but today you must leave everything you have!"
As he spoke, the overwhelming power of True Martial emanated from him, forming a massive True Martial Avatar, staring menacingly at Lü Yangyan.
Lü Yangyan showed no fear, "Haha, Lü Xiuming! You and I both know the old grudges; let’s settle them once and for all today!"
"Courting death!"
With a cold snort, Lü Xiuming struck with his palm.
Boom!
The immense pressure rushed towards Lü Yangyan.
Lü Zhengqing’s face sank.
Lü Xiuming’s palm was clearly meant to kill Lü Yangyan!
Witnessed by all, he couldn’t intervene.
In the urgency, Lü Yangyan coldly shouted, raising his hand to throw a punch.
Thunk!
The punch met Lü Xiuming’s palm strike.
In the loud boom, the force dissipated, and Lü Yangyan stepped back several times, his face pale and flushing, evidently shaken in blood.
Even so, the onlookers gasped in surprise.
None expected Lü Yangyan to withstand Lü Zhengqing’s strike.
After all, Lü Zhengqing was the esteemed Great Elder of True Martial Sect.
Lü Yangyan was merely a former ordinary disciple, the gap was immeasurable.
Yet, despite stepping back, Lü Yangyan remained unharmed, which was shocking enough.
Even Lü Zhengqing’s eyes brightened.
Yangyan’s cultivation level seemed far advanced since Fu Niu Mountain.
Lü Xiuming’s face drastically changed, staring darkly at Lü Yangyan.
"No wonder you dare speak to me this way, relying on such strength. But do you think this is enough to challenge me?"
With questioning words, Lü Xiuming’s aura surged again.
Lü Yangyan prepared himself accordingly.
At that moment, a timid voice called out, "Brother, what’s happening?"
Hearing the voice, Lü Yangyan inwardly cursed, shouting without turning, "Nothing! Hide quickly!"
But it was too late; awakened, Lü Xiaoya entered the room.
Seeing her, Lü Xiuming immediately noticed the hairpin on her head.
The round, lustrous Treasure Bead atop the hairpin caught everyone’s eye.
"Indeed, it’s the Treasure Bead!"
