Two months ago, after the Lu family was purged, Lu Feng, the patriarch, gradually learned about the enormous power hidden behind Leng Qing...

Although it was only the tip of the iceberg that Lin Fan and the others deliberately revealed.

But that was enough to make Lu Feng tremble with fear.

The Zhao family, the Eastern Wei clan, the Southern Wei clan, the Ai family, the Lü family, the Jiang family, the Song priest...

Even a single force could overthrow the Lu family.

So many forces are gathering...

Even the slightest ripple could easily crush him.

He clearly recognized this point when the Zhao clan underwent a major upheaval.

(See Chapter 35, Dust Settles and Enlightenment)

Most importantly, how terrifying must an entity be to be able to gather so many forces together?

Lu Feng had to stop thinking about it even for a moment.

Fearing discovery and misunderstanding that she was spying on secrets, she set herself on fire and committed suicide after leaving the house.

And now, these idiots actually dare to come to my Lu family's territory to hold a secret meeting...

'Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for using you as a pledge of loyalty.'

When ruthlessness arises in a moment, one suddenly feels the vastness of the world.

With these guys as a pledge of allegiance, the Lu family isn't necessarily unable to catch that ship heading towards a new era...

After all, when the court let the Lu family go, it probably had this in mind...

After figuring everything out, Lu Feng suddenly found these ridiculous representatives of aristocratic families to be much more endearing.

How could this be a despicable villain trying to drag the Lu family down with him?

These are clearly walking achievements, the cornerstone for the Lu family's future!

"Patriarch of the Lu family, you've been listening for so long. As the host, shouldn't you say something?"

"That's right, your Lu family was forced to resign from your councilor positions, can you tolerate that?"

The Nanrong and Dali families truly deserve to be called the Mu family's loyal lackeys.

The two representatives spoke in unison, clearly trying to force Lu Feng to step forward.

Moreover, it seems they want to unite the Lu Feng pawnshop families with Mo Jing Nao Mao...

Even if things are exposed, they can sell out the Lu family and save their lives.

Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan exchanged a glance and both smiled knowingly.

They've been teammates since the last National Championships.

Now that we're on a mission together, as long as we force the Lu family to become the main force, we can teach Leng Qing a lesson.

After returning, the two will be able to obtain the Star Sea Celestial Vein and advance to the Super Rank!

The other family representatives were perfectly clear about Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan's straightforward intentions.

In any case, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks for them, and there's no need to offend the Nanrong and Dali families.

Just watch the show for now.

The fishy smell filled the air, and the stench of blood filled the air. ...

I felt even more contempt for these rotten fish and shrimp.

However, on the surface, Lu Feng still showed a reluctant expression as he spoke to Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan.

"Our Lu family naturally abhors the trial, but alas, we are willing but powerless. If the Mu family could take the lead..."

"Don't even think about it, Patriarch Lu. The Mu family told us that they will never get involved openly."

Upon hearing this, Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan immediately interrupted Lu Feng.

If the Mu family were willing to intervene, why would they have sought out Yixinglan Yao to carry out this plan?

A week ago, the Mu family suddenly went mad and launched a nationwide manhunt for a man named Pansy.

The Mu family then ignored these vassal families completely...

No, it's not accurate to say we'll ignore it completely.

At least every day, members of the Mu family would come to their family properties to eat and drink for free, ostensibly for the convenience of searching.

Even after gaining nothing.

While the Mu clan members were eating and drinking for free, they would also constantly harass and question the Nanrong and Dali families about their search.

They were also required to provide more resources to atone for their crimes.

It's as if these vassal families helped Pan XZ rise to power...

Although no information could be found, they seemed to have a deep understanding of the Mu family's power distribution, and the more they looked, the more it seemed like they were being helped by vassal families...

But if they were really harboring criminals, how could their cronies not know?

In short, because of Panxi's defection, the Mu family has been so busy lately that they definitely won't care about such a trivial matter as the investigation of aristocratic families.

Upon hearing Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan's words, Lu Feng's face turned ashen, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Tell me, how do you plan to deal with the Tribunal and Leng Qing?"

Seeing Lu Feng 'yield', Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan, among others, couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

"I presume Patriarch Lu has heard of the Assassin's Palace?"

"Killer Palace? You want to kill Leng Qing directly!?"

Lu Feng narrowed his eyes and asked in shock.

"Of course we won't kill her, we just want to disable her."

“A high-ranking mage dares to trample on our noble families at will, relying on the support of High Priest Song and Cold Hunter King.”

"If we don't make her pay the price, our aristocratic family will be wiped out by her sooner or later!"

Nan Rongxu chuckled coldly a few times and shrugged.

Behind him, the Lin family representative, whose home had been ransacked by Leng Qing but who had escaped by accident while out, also nodded angrily.

If he weren't afraid of completely enraging High Priest Song and the Cold Hunter King, he would have even wanted to humiliate him to death...

Listening to Xing's ramblings, Lu Feng felt a chill creeping into his heart.

It was as if some terrifying entity had already set its sights on them...

"Gulp..."

Even though Lu Feng has a good attitude towards stress, he couldn't help but swallow a little saliva to calm his nerves.

"The Assassin's Guild is indeed skilled in assassination, but it would still be very difficult to assassinate Leng Qing during the trial..."

After all, Leng Qing was only at the high level.

But the courts aren't just for high-ranking officials...

"This is something that needs to be resolved by Patriarch Lu."

Nan Rongxu patted Lu Feng on the shoulder and smiled sinisterly.

“I remember Councilor Jiang Xia, who also seemed to have been forced to resign because of the Lu family matter.”

"As long as we ask him for help, it shouldn't be too difficult to lure Leng Qing away from the trial..."

(See Chapter Thirteen, Fighting for Authority and Educational Reform)

Chapter 91 The Four Craftsmen and Leng Qing?

Upon hearing Nan Rongxu's words, Lu Feng didn't say anything more, but simply agreed silently.

From the speeches of these aristocratic representatives, he already knew that they were all courting death.

Without even a single forbidden spell to back them up, they still dare to provoke Leng Qing and the forces behind her...

What else can Lu Feng say?

All I could do was nod and smile, and silently see them off.

With the cooperation of Lu Feng, members of prominent families such as Nan Rongxu and Li Chuan emerged to offer their services, thus gaining access to the imperial court and other important positions.

"Haha, Patriarch Lu is indeed straightforward. If this cooperation goes well, we can also introduce Patriarch Lu to the Mu family..."

With everything settled, Nan Rongxu laughed triumphantly a few times, patted Lu Feng on the shoulder, and made a promise.

"Then thank you for your kindness, Nanrong family."

When a high-level mage patted him on the shoulder, the super-level mage Lu Feng showed no resentment and responded with a smile.

In Nan Rongxu's view, this was undoubtedly giving the Nan Rong family a lot of face, and he immediately smiled even more smugly.

In fact, from Lu Feng's perspective...

These representatives of prominent families before him were all pledges of allegiance to the Lu family, tickets to board the ship of the future.

How could Lu Feng possibly show any displeasure towards such a bright future?

Moreover, instead of wasting time talking to these dying people, it's better to coax them into embryos sooner, giving yourself time to imagine a bright future.

The plan was agreed upon, and after a few polite exchanges, the gruff, gruff man left, awaiting the day the plan would succeed.

……

2014 10 Month 1 Day.

North Rain Mountain Foot.

"Identify your target and prepare accordingly."

A middle-aged man dressed in a black robe whispered a reminder.

"I understand, tomb raider. He's just a high-level mage, why be so cautious?"

A young man wearing a black hood waved his hand dismissively, with an air of nonchalant contempt.

Upon hearing this, the tomb craftsman couldn't help but frown.

This newly appointed craftsman was indeed just as rumored—a complete troublemaker…

"No matter what you think, don't ruin your business because of carelessness, sir."

Before the tomb craftsman could speak, an old man nearby issued a warning.

At the same time, another beautiful woman began to smooth things over.

"Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. This time, our big customer has invited all four of us craftsmen out."

"We have to get things done; we can't ruin everyone's reputation..."

Hearing the other two's words, the humble craftsman, though arrogant, didn't want to provoke them.

He immediately pursed his lips and restrained his breathing.

"Alright, alright, Craftsman Wang, Craftsman Ling, I understand the rules..."

The craftsman verbally persuaded him, but in reality, he transformed into a shadow and darted out in an instant, soon lurking on Leng Qing's inevitable path.

He clearly wanted to prove his voice among the four craftsmen with his abilities.

"Heh, what an unlikable guy."

The alluring tomb craftsman raised his hand to cover his smile, making no attempt to conceal the intense malice that was about to overflow from his eyes.

Beneath its feet, thorny vines quietly spread out, like a giant spider web, waiting for the prey to step into the trap.

The craftsmen and tomb builders standing nearby were also ready to make their move.

Judging from this posture, they clearly see Leng Qing as prey in their competition.

Whoever kills first has the right to speak.

Leng Qing, who had been sensed earlier, walked directly into the area as if he were an unsuspecting pedestrian.

"They're here!"
