Chapter 26: The Visit of Three Langya Heavenly Sect Elders, the Grand Elder’s Moment of Glory, Slaying a Langya Heavenly Sect Elder

Lu Royal Mansion.

Outside Sky-Supporting Island, three Langya Heavenly Sect elders stood suspended in the air.

The leader was none other than the Second Elder Chongming, who had reached the seventh stage of the Soul Palace Realm, accompanied by the Fourth Elder Tang Qiu and the Fifth Elder Yan Weishan.

The voice just now had come from Chongming.

After chasing Lu Tianming all the way, they had ultimately failed to stop him. After some discussion, they had no choice but to personally visit the Lu Royal Mansion.

In a matter of moments, Lu Qingxuan appeared outside Sky-Supporting Island with Lu Tianming.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Almost at the same time, the Grand Elder and many other clansmen rushed out of the mansion, positioning themselves behind Lu Qingxuan.

Chongming scanned the group from the Lu Royal Mansion, and when he spotted Lu Tianming, an undisguised killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Then, his gaze shifted and settled on Lu Qingxuan, his brow slightly raised.

“Lord Lu, Lu Tianming is a traitor to our sect. Not only is he full of lies, but he also murdered an elder of our sect. I hope you will hand him over to Langya Heavenly Sect for us to deal with! I hope you can discern right from wrong!”

When he said the last sentence, Chongming deliberately emphasized his tone.

The meaning was clear: you’d better not believe what Lu Tianming has said.

Although Langya Heavenly Sect wasn’t afraid of the Lu Royal Mansion, they were still very wary of the Lingyun Dynasty. And as the Lu Royal Mansion was a foreign-titled county king’s mansion under the Lingyun Dynasty, even Langya Heavenly Sect had to show some superficial courtesy.

Lu Qingxuan stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, “What if this king says no?”

Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Chongming’s eyes as he sneered, “Lord Lu, I’m giving you three points of face out of respect for the Lingyun Dynasty’s royal family. I hope you know your place!”

Chongming was very displeased with Lu Qingxuan’s response.

A mere junior daring to act high and mighty in front of me? Then I’ll open the window and speak plainly to wake you up. At these words, a trace of anger appeared on the faces of the Lu clansmen.

This old fool dared to bark at their family’s doorstep—he was simply courting death! But before Lu Qingxuan could respond, the Grand Elder Lu Changfeng stepped forward and snorted coldly.

“Hmph, Langya Heavenly Sect sure has some grand authority, shamelessly sending three elders of the older generation to hunt down a junior of our clan. Our Lu Royal Mansion hasn’t even held you accountable yet, and you dare come to our doorstep demanding someone? Then today, this old man shall spar with you all!”

Naturally, the Grand Elder was furious at Chongming’s words. Without hesitation, he let out a cold snort and was the first to step forward. Since awakening his Geng Metal Treasure Physique, he hadn’t had much chance to test his strength, and now he intended to use these people to gauge his power.

Seeing this, Lu Qingxuan didn’t say much. The Grand Elder’s strength had improved rapidly, and if he wanted to find someone to spar with, Lu Qingxuan wouldn’t interfere. With him present, these three Langya Heavenly Sect elders couldn’t stir up any trouble.

“Heh … you’ve got some guts. Then let this old man show you just how pathetic your so-called strength is in front of us. I won’t even bully you.”

At this point, Chongming turned to Yan Weishan beside him.

“Fifth Elder, take action and let them see that not just anyone can provoke Langya Heavenly Sect.”

Yan Weishan didn’t respond verbally but stepped forward directly.

With one step, he launched an attack, charging toward Lu Changfeng to strike him down.

Lu Changfeng showed no fear. His entire Physique radiated a treasure-like glow as he met the assault head-on.

Boom! Boom!

In an instant, the two exchanged over a dozen moves in the air. Despite Yan Weishan’s cultivation being two minor realms higher than Lu Changfeng’s, Lu Changfeng didn’t fall behind in the slightest.

In fact, as time passed, Lu Changfeng gradually gained the upper hand, forcing Yan Weishan into an increasingly disadvantaged position.

In the distance, Chongming, who had been calm at first, slowly grew grim-faced. He never imagined the outcome would completely defy his expectations—a fifth elder at Third Layer of the Soul Palace Realm was losing to someone at First Layer.

Clang! Clang!

As the battle progressed, even when both drew their weapons, Lu Changfeng still held the advantage. His physique was surrounded by swirling blade light and blooming treasure radiance, growing fiercer with each strike.

Meanwhile, Yan Weishan’s face darkened, repeatedly pushed into perilous situations.

Boom!

At that moment, Lu Changfeng seized an opportunity and unleashed a cross-shaped blade slash.

The spear in Yan Weishan’s hand was knocked flying, and the blade’s edge slashed directly across Yan Weishan’s waist.

Bang!

Yan Weishan’s entire figure was sent flying and crashed to the ground. If not for the protective treasure armor he wore, he would’ve been cleaved in two at the waist.

Whoosh!

Lu Changfeng darted through the air, showing no mercy, intent on finishing him off while he was down.

Not long ago, he had learned from the Second Elder that when the Lu Royal Mansion clansmen went overseas to seize opportunities, they had been killed by Langya Heavenly Sect’s people.

Since Langya Heavenly Sect dared to secretly slaughter their Lu family members, Lu Changfeng showed no leniency now, ready to deliver a killing blow.

Those who dared kill their Lu family members crossed a line the Lu family wouldn’t tolerate—it demanded retribution in kind.

Seeing Lu Changfeng continue his assault on the injured Fifth Elder Yan Weishan, killing intent surged in Chongming’s eyes.

How could he just stand by and watch the Fifth Elder be killed by Lu Changfeng?

“Hmph!” With a cold snort, Chongming made his move. He reached out with a large hand, and a mana-formed giant hand materialized in the void, pressing down toward Lu Changfeng to suppress him.

Sensing Chongming’s lightning-fast giant hand bearing down on him, Lu Changfeng showed no fear. Just as he was about to unleash a full-force slash, an even faster palm print descended.

The one who acted was none other than Lu Qingxuan. Seeing Chongming intervene, Lu Qingxuan couldn’t ignore Lu Changfeng’s safety.

Boom!

Chongming’s terrifying palm strike shattered like paper under Lu Qingxuan’s palm print, easily crushed. After breaking Chongming’s mana hand, Lu Qingxuan’s palm print didn’t lose momentum, pressing toward Chongming.

Seeing this, Chongming’s expression grew slightly tense. Without hesitation, he summoned a great halberd and swung it fiercely. A halberd gleam shot forth like a meteor, streaking across the sky and clashing with Lu Qingxuan’s mana hand.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their attacks collided in the void.

In an instant, spiritual light erupted, and mana swept in all directions.

Chongming was forced back several meters by the terrifying palm wind, his face completely transformed, as if in disbelief. Even after summoning his weapon, he had still been put at a disadvantage—how could he not be shocked? Just as he steadied himself, a slicing sound rang out.

Everyone turned their gazes and saw Yan Weishan’s head cleanly severed by Lu Changfeng’s blade light, a spray of crimson splattering into the air.

Chongming and Tang Qiu couldn’t believe it—Lu Changfeng had dared to kill a Langya Heavenly Sect elder right in front of them.

At this sight, Chongming’s eyes blazed with tangible killing intent, his spiritual power erupting like that of an enraged tiger.

“Seeking death!” His voice was like an icy tide, sending chills down spines.

In the next instant, Chongming shot into the air, charging at Lu Changfeng to kill him on the spot.

To dare kill the Fifth Elder in front of him—Chongming was utterly enraged at this moment.
