With Zhu Zhuqing's return, the family quickly learned of the news.

The main hall of the Zhu family.

The square-faced man sat in the head of the family's seat; he was Zhu Zhuqing's father, Zhu Lingtian.

A Contra player with a level of over 80.

"Now that Zhuqing is back, I'll have her come to see me."

A detached voice echoed in the hall, devoid of any emotion.

"Yes, ma'am."

After receiving the order, a subordinate dressed in gray-black clothes headed directly towards Zhu Zhuqing's courtyard.

…………

Soon after... they arrived at the place where Lu Yang was.

"Young Miss... the head of the family wants you to come over." The person who came to report was equally devoid of emotion, as if he were calling a complete stranger.

In fact, Zhu Zhuqing's status in the Zhu family was not only lower than Zhu Zhuyun's, but also much lower than that of many young people in the clan.

This targeting is due to her lack of talent and strength.

That's why Zhu Zhuqing chose to escape her family and come to Shrek Academy.

"I understand, I'll go later," Zhu Zhuqing replied. Her expression was cold, devoid of any emotion.

"Miss, is this not proper?" The man's face darkened with displeasure. He was, after all, someone close to the head of the family, yet the other party dared to disrespect him.

Lu Yang looked at a servant and said, "Zhu Qing, I must say, your dog is too big. It even looks down on you."

"If you ask me, we should beat him up and throw him out, otherwise we don't know how long he'll have to pretend to be deaf and dumb." Lu Yang looked at the other party and said, "He's just a Soul King, what's with all the arrogance?"

The voice just fell.

The person who came to report seemed to notice Lu Yang's presence, and their expression immediately became serious.

"How dare you trespass into my Zhu family's residence! Who are you?"

Before Lu Yang could even speak, Zhu Zhuqing's voice followed him like a shadow.

"He is the one I love, Laifu~ you can't be rude to him."

"Very good... Miss, it seems you haven't forgotten that you're already engaged. How could you..."

Lu Yang rushed forward and slapped Lai Fu hard across the face.

"Ah~".

The latter screamed and flew backward, crashing heavily onto the bluestone courtyard floor.

The paving stones in the courtyard were instantly smashed to pieces.

Laifu suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"How could I, with a cultivation level of over 50, be defeated in a single exchange, especially by a mere youth? This is impossible."

He muttered to himself, then stood up with a smile.

"Swish swish swish~".

Two yellow, two purple, and one black.

Five spirit rings instantly appeared at Lai Fu's feet.

"I am a Soul King, how dare you hit me?"

Seeing that the other party was serious, Zhu Zhuqing ordered, "Retreat immediately, or else..."

"Miss, I'll apologize to you after I kill him." Lai Fu showed no respect to Zhu Zhuqing and rushed towards Lu Yang.

In a flash, a black cat appeared behind him, which seemed to be a mutated martial soul.

Moreover, it's heading in a direction that's neither good nor bad, so it's not a ghostly spirit cat.

Felines are generally very fast, so Lai Fu's speed was almost enough to leave a trail of afterimages, but in the eyes of Lu Yang, who was also a Soul King, it was still too slow.

"Third Soul Skill: Golden Crow Burning Sky Claw".

Lu Yang moved, his hands transforming into sharp talons, each thirty centimeters long, and viciously grabbed at Lai Fu.

"Boom..."

A loud bang.

At the moment of impact, a headless corpse fell behind Lu Yang. Upon closer inspection, ten claw marks were found all over the back and front of the corpse.

And burning fiercely, it devoured the entire corpse in no time, and a generation of Soul Kings perished.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at the already dead Laifu, and a rare look of panic appeared on her face.

Knowing that his father, Zhu Lingtian, disliked nothing more than someone killing the people he sent out, and that the person was killed in his own home, he thought, "How arrogant is that?"

With Lai Fu's death, those who came to report him vanished without a trace, while Zhu Lingtian on the other side seemed to sense something was amiss.

Since it wouldn't take that long to tell Zhu Zhuqing, the only explanation is that something happened to her.

When Zhu Zhuqing left home, he was only in his twenties. Only a few months have passed, and he would never become a Soul King no matter what. So he decided to go to the other party's courtyard to find out for himself.

On the other side, Lu Yang looked at the corpse on the ground, which had not even left ashes, and casually patted the dust off his clothes.

He's been traveling a long way and hasn't had a proper shower yet.

Now that we've arrived in the imperial city of the Star Luo Empire, we should at least have a good meal.

"Lu Yang... this is a huge problem. My father and the others will definitely not let this go." Zhu Zhuqing's face became anxious, and she pulled the other person to leave.

In the blink of an eye, Dian Wei reappeared in the courtyard and walked towards the two of them.

"What are your orders, young master?"

Dian Wei's voice, like a booming bell, pulled the two back to reality, and his powerful strength also gave them a boost of confidence for the rest of the matter.

The moment Zhu Zhuqing saw Dian Wei, her unease and tension eased considerably.

Even the emperor wouldn't dare to underestimate the existence of a Limit Douluo.

Lu Yang immediately gave the order: "At the door, don't let anyone near. Anyone who comes near, send them back."

It was, after all, at the Zhu family's house.

Lu Yang didn't want to escalate the situation too much and resort to violence.

The old man is, after all, my future father-in-law! I should still show him some respect.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be awkward when we meet again in the future?

"Lu Yang, isn't what we're doing a bit inappropriate? And this will cause quite a commotion," Zhu Zhuqing said uneasily.

His body seemed to become anxious and restless due to tension, and he kept pacing in place while his eyes began to look around and sense his surroundings.

Lu Yang waved his hand dismissively: "It's alright, Dian Wei is here anyway, what can your father do even if he comes?"

"After all, the Douluo Continent is a world where the strong are respected, and the weak are destined to be bullied, aren't they?"

"Who is it? How dare they show up in my daughter's yard?" Zhu Lingtian's voice came like a shadow.

The person hasn't arrived yet.

The sound reached the ears of both Zhu Zhuqing and Lu Yang.

As their gazes gradually shifted, a solemn and dignified middle-aged man stood in the doorway.

But at that moment, the man was blocked by Dian Wei, who was even more burly and seven feet tall.

Zhu Lingtian originally wanted to force his way through, but he found that he hadn't even gotten past the first time, so he was forced to kneel on one knee.

"Such powerful strength, at least a Title Douluo."

Zhu Lingtian murmured?

At the same time, due to increasing pressure, he even had to slowly kneel down.

"No entry is permitted. This is my young master's order." Dian Wei's voice was icy cold, yet deep and powerful, shaking everyone who came.

Zhu Lingtian arrived alone, accompanied by several elders.

Behind them, several elders of the Zhu family watched as their clan leader was suppressed and forced to kneel on the ground.

They didn't dare to offer it up for free, so they lingered in the same spot.
