Chapter 179: Chapter 179: Learning the Truth About the Zhang Family, Everyone Is Enraged!

"A strange phenomenon possessing human intelligence?"

"And who is Zhang Yingxue?"

"This..."

Mo Ronghua furrowed his brows tightly, his mood seemed extremely heavy.

"Qingyi, quickly investigate Zhang Yingxue and the situation of Xiao Gaoyuan."

"Yes, father."

After receiving the order, Mo Qingyi immediately left the hall.

"Mr. Lu, it’s nearly dark now, will that eerie figure show up again?"

"Where did it appear just now?"

"Should I go and investigate for a bit now?"

An eerie figure of such level, especially with human intelligence, made Mo Ronghua’s back feel a chill.

If Lu Xuan hadn’t informed him, he wouldn’t have realized such a terrifying presence existed right under his nose.

The power of the domain of an eerie figure of this level is not to be taken lightly.

If he were to encounter a fully-realized eerie figure of this level, even as a martial artist at the peak of the Inner Qi Realm, he would likely have to avoid the confrontation and flee far away.

"No need to make the trip, that ghostly thing has been injured by me. It’s likely to be more cautious and won’t show itself easily."

This is also why Lu Xuan needed to find Xiao Chenliang.

This Zhang Yingxue bears a significant grudge, mostly against the Celestial Eagle Gang and Xiao Chenliang.

As long as Xiao Chenliang is found, Lu Xuan can remain close to him, waiting for Zhang Yingxue to reappear.

At that time, Lu Xuan won’t hold back and will not let Zhang Yingxue escape.

Half an hour later, Mo Qingyi walked back into the hall.

However, that exquisite and fair face was as if covered in frost, making people feel apprehensive.

Seeing Mo Qingyi’s expression, Mo Ronghua immediately felt a sense of unease.

But, as her doting father, in this moment, he did not dare to provoke his precious daughter’s temper.

Mo Ronghua did not dare to ask, so he had to rely on Lu Xuan.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Mo Ronghua turned and gave Lu Xuan a look, signaling for him to inquire from Mo Qingyi.

Lu Xuan didn’t need to see Mo Ronghua’s look to know why Mo Qingyi was acting like this.

She must have understood the enmity between the Zhang Family and the Xiao Family.

Alas, this Zhang Yingxue is also a pitiable person.

Mo Qingyi stopped at that moment, gritting her teeth as she spoke.

"Mr. Lu, I want to kill that beast!"

The beast Mo Qingyi referred to was, of course, none other than that brute Xiao Chenliang.

After investigating everything thoroughly, Mo Qingyi now only wanted to cleave that Xiao Chenliang with a single sword strike.

Unbeknownst to her, Mo Ronghua appeared behind her and laid a hand on Mo Qingyi’s shoulder.

At this moment, Mo Ronghua was using his inner qi to suppress the chaotic flow of blood within Mo Qingyi’s body.

"Qingyi, calm down."

After suppressing Mo Qingyi’s turbulent blood flow, Mo Ronghua’s face turned ashen.

What on earth happened?

Who dared to provoke his beloved daughter to anger? Mo Ronghua swore he would not let them go, no matter where they hide.

"Xiao Chenliang still has some uses, so we can’t kill him just yet."

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment and decided to keep Xiao Chenliang alive for now.

Because Zhang Yingxue’s main target is him.

If Xiao Chenliang dies, Lu Xuan can’t guarantee whether Zhang Yingxue will still appear.

He can’t just keep staying in Jingtai Prefecture indefinitely.

That’s not possible, Lu Xuan doesn’t have that much time to dwell in Jingtai Prefecture.

At most, within two days, Lu Xuan must immediately return to White Dao Prefecture.

"However, don’t worry, Miss Qingyi, that Xiao Chenliang won’t live for much longer."

"As the saying goes, wrongs have a head, debts have a master!"

Lu Xuan glanced meaningfully at Mo Qingyi as he spoke.

"At that time, someone will naturally come to resolve this with Xiao Chenliang for Miss Qingyi."

Wrongs have a head, debts have a master?

Mo Qingyi was taken aback; isn’t the grudge Xiao Chenliang committed precisely Zhang Yingxue?

A creditor?

Could it be?

It dawned on Mo Qingyi at that moment, finally understanding Lu Xuan’s intent.

Lu Xuan’s intention was for Zhang Yingxue to personally settle the score with that beast.

That ice-cold face broke into a smile in the next instant, as if the burden in her heart had been lifted.

"Yes, Mr. Lu."

However, Mo Ronghua, standing aside, was filled with questions and was thoroughly confused by their conversation.

But Mo Ronghua soon learned who had angered his daughter.

It turned out to be Xiao Gaoyuan’s third son, that scoundrel Xiao Chenliang.

"How could that beast commit such heinous acts."

"Does Xiao Gaoyuan truly believe that just because he has ties with Prince An, he can act recklessly?"

After learning the whole story, even Mo Ronghua, who had seen many things, couldn’t help but curse in anger.

No wonder his daughter had such a strong reaction.

Forget about his daughter, if that beast Xiao Chenliang stood in front of him.

Mo Ronghua would undoubtedly deliver a killing blow without hesitation!

However, Mo Ronghua suppressed his rage and disclosed some secrets to Lu Xuan.

"Lu, that Xiao Gaoyuan serves as the Prefect of Jingtai Prefecture and he has another layer of identity."

"He is, in fact, a maternal relative of Prince An Xia Mingqing and the nephew of the patriarch of the Xiao Family."

"Prince An’s birth mother is the eldest daughter of the Xiao Family patriarch."

"Thus, Xiao Gaoyuan left the capital to serve in Anzhou, wishing to serve Prince An Xia Mingqing closely."

Why is it always related to this Prince An?

Is it endless?

Lu Xuan felt a bit helpless, wondering why everyone he encountered was tied to this so-called Prince An.

Could it be that he and this Prince An are destined to clash?

As for Mo Ronghua’s implications, Lu Xuan calmly ignored them.

Mo Ronghua was merely trying to advise caution regarding Xiao Gaoyuan’s background.

However, Lu Xuan would not concern himself with people’s backgrounds or statuses.

As long as someone blocks Lu Xuan’s path, even if it’s the emperor’s son, Lu Xuan will not hesitate to eliminate them.

Seeing Lu Xuan unresponsive, Mo Ronghua understood his intentions and didn’t press further.

"Lu, those heavenly spiritual objects, would you prefer to take them now or wait until you’ve dealt with the eerie entity?"

Lu Xuan had already expressed his determination to handle the Zhang Yingxue matter personally.

Thus, Mo Ronghua would naturally not interfere and even had to thank Lu Xuan for his assistance.

"Mo, please give them to me now."

Regarding such heavenly treasures, Lu Xuan certainly wouldn’t leave them until night falls.

Three high-grade spiritual objects and fifteen mid-grade spiritual objects.

These should be enough for me to develop the next level of the Invincible Diamond Technique.

Lu Xuan thought inwardly.

At deep night, outside the gates of the Black Eagle Gang’s headquarters, about a dozen gang members stood guard.

At this moment, a blurry red figure gradually appeared.

It appeared in this bizarre manner in front of those gang members.
