Chapter 894 - 895: The Venerable's Wrath
Chapter 894 - 895: The Venerable's Wrath
As a guard, failing to protect the master and allowing the master to lose an arm, one can imagine how severe the consequences are. Therefore, these guards naturally wouldn't let Xiao Tianyu go.
Just as the leading guard was about to reach, Xiao Tianyu kicked with his right foot, and boom~ Lu Li's body soared into the air with terrifying impact force, causing the guard to be shocked and immediately retract his attack, reaching out to catch Lu Li.
Boom~
However, just as the guard touched the flying Lu Li, there was a sudden loud noise, as if Lu Li's body contained a formidable impact force, unstoppable.
Spurt~
Next, under everyone's gaze, the lead guard flew backward, spitting vivid red blood continuously, his body crashing into the wall, causing it to crack.
As for Lu Li's body, it also fell to the ground, completely unconscious.
So strong!
At this moment, the heavily injured lead guard looked utterly grim; the impact from a mere kick was more than he could bear. How could he ever think of wanting the opponent dead?
At this moment, the other two guards who were about to make a move were also stunned, showing expressions of mere bystanders.
But it's not surprising; the lead guard was a Martial Immortal at the Fifth Layer, unable to withstand a single blow from the opponent, let alone them?
Silence.
At this moment, the entire space was eerily silent, seemingly impacted even more than Xiao Tianyu disarming Lu Li earlier. Even a Fifth Layer Martial Immortal couldn't withstand a single blow from that young man. Who exactly is he, and where does he come from?
Some even wondered when Celestial Capital had such an outstanding genius youth. They had never heard of it. Could it be the secret disciple of a Peak Master from the Haotian Sect?
At this moment, many eyes unconsciously fell on Di Xin, seemingly wanting to learn who he was from her. However, they only saw Di Xin's beautiful eyes flicker with great shock; after all, the lead guard was a Martial Immortal at the Fifth Layer, a high-tier expert, yet still no match for Xiao Tianyu.
It could even be said, overwhelmingly crushed.
Xiao Tianyu not worthy of her?
Xiao Tianyu, vain and proud?
At this moment, Di Xin couldn't help but recall her earlier words, feeling deeply ashamed. Sometimes Di Xin wondered, what if she had just chosen Xiao Tianyu over Lu Li?
Whether in talent or looks, Xiao Tianyu surpassed Lu Li by too much, not even on the same level. Unfortunately, words once spoken are like water spilled, impossible to retract.
"Why is his talent so great?" Di Xin murmured in her heart, a hint of regret arose. If she'd known earlier that the handsome, unmatched youth possessed such talent, she would never have thought of humiliating him.
But, all this has become an irrefutable fact.
From the moment she humiliated Xiao Tianyu, their fates were destined to be in two different worlds. Even though she was a princess, in talent, she could only look up to him.
"Xiao Jiu!" At this moment, a voice echoed in the silent hall: "Let's go!"
"Okay!" Xiao Jiu nodded, glancing at Di Xin, "What a self-righteous woman!"
With that, Xiao Jiu followed behind Xiao Tianyu, leaving the hall gleefully.
Everyone watched Xiao Tianyu and the others swagger away, feeling a strange notion in their hearts. Tonight, they originally came to celebrate Di Xin's birthday. By right, Di Xin should have been the most dazzling protagonist, but who would expect the light that originally belonged to her was taken by that youth. Di Xin was just a foil, nothing more.
But, to speak honestly,
Everyone knew that today's matter would not end so easily, after all, that youth had disarmed Lu Li, regardless of his background or identity, the people of the Venerable Mansion would certainly not let it go.
Some even believed that as long as that youth stayed in the Imperial Capital, he would not escape the assassination attempts by the Venerable Mansion.
...
Venerable Prince's Mansion.
The Venerable Prince's Mansion stands in the Imperial City, the majestic princely hall covers tens of thousands of square meters, with endless pavilions, exuding a sense of awe-inspiring dignity.
Just a glance, and it makes people feel like worshipping, the reason being there resides a supreme Martial Venerable.
Not only that, their Martial Venerable was personally ordained as War Venerable by the Celestial Emperor, having made numerous contributions to the Celestial Capital, and even received an Immunity Token by order of the Celestial Emperor, ensuring that no one can harm anything in the Venerable Prince's Mansion as long as the Celestial Emperor reigns.
At this moment, in the rear garden of the Venerable Prince's Mansion, an elderly man in a Venerable Robe sat cross-legged by a pond, holding a fishing rod, quietly waiting for fish to bite, giving the impression of an elderly man enjoying his twilight years.
In truth, it was not so, for this person was the War Venerable, Lu Zhanhao of the Venerable Prince's Mansion.
Beside him, several poised Palace Maids stood quietly like statues, holding flower trays.
Half an hour later.
"Venerable King!" A voice was heard, then a middle-aged man approached, causing Lu Zhanhao to show a trace of displeasure: "Do you not know that during my fishing time, outsiders are not allowed to disturb?"
"Venerable King, please forgive me!" The middle-aged man knelt, performing a kowtow, as Lu Zhanhao put down the fishing rod, casting a dignified gaze at the middle-aged man, "Stand up!"
With that, Lu Zhanhao continued, "Speak, what is the matter you wish to report?"
"Venerable King, Young Master Lu Li he..." The middle-aged man hesitated to continue, making Lu Zhanhao frown slightly: "What happened to Li'Er?"
"Young Master Lu Li, he... he..."
Seeing the man's tongue-tied state, Lu Zhanhao seemed to grasp something and said, "Speak, what happened to Li'Er!"
"Young Master Lu Li, he has been disarmed!"
Clamor~
With those words, an overwhelming aura erupted from Lu Zhanhao, enveloping the entire Venerable Prince's Mansion, causing a series of crashes as the Palace Maid's trays fell in fright.
"Venerable King, please forgive us!" Many Palace Maids knelt trembling.
Lu Zhanhao turned his profound gaze, "Can't even hold a tray steady, what's the use of you?"
Bang, bang, bang~
As his words fell, Lu Zhanhao waved his hand, and those Palace Maids screamed tragically, turning into a mist of blood, a gruesome sight that made the middle-aged man's knees go weak.
For so many years, the Venerable King had never raged like this, showing how much Lu Li meant to him.
Following that, Lu Zhanhao coldly snorted at the middle-aged man, "Who did it?"
"I... don't know!"
"What, someone disarmed my grandson, and you don't know?" Lu Zhanhao roared.
"Venerable King, please forgive me!" Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's knees buckled, kneeling again, and Lu Zhanhao coldly snorted, "What about the guards protecting Li'Er, are they all dead?"
