Chapter 234: Chapter 217: The Wu Clan! Coveting Lu Xuan’s Great Secret!_2

This was the item that Chen Luomeng handed over to him, used to contact the communication bird of the Wo family.

Lu Xuan held the black bird in his right hand, which suddenly emitted a faint purple glow.

A wisp of purple aura slowly rose from Lu Xuan’s palm, and eventually flowed into the bird’s body.

Immediately after, Lu Xuan exerted strength to lift his right hand, and the black bird soared into the sky and flew away.

To be cautious, Lu Xuan released the black bird in advance, to see if the Wo family member had arrived at Qingxi Prefecture’s capital.

"Oh, he really has arrived, only ten miles away from Qingxi Prefecture’s capital." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Upon sensing that the bird had stopped, Lu Xuan slowly curled his lips into a smile, saving him a day or two of time.

Outside Qingxi Prefecture, on a road ten miles away, a carriage was moving slowly.

A black bird descended from the sky, darting towards the carriage.

The black bird flapped its wings and lightly landed atop the carriage.

In the next second, an invisible force lifted the curtain on the right side of the carriage.

With a mysterious attraction, the black bird perched on the carriage roof was drawn inside.

"Interesting, Wo Shang, stop the carriage. It seems something has happened in Anzhou."

The middle-aged man driving the carriage, appearing to be in his forties, was named Wo Shang.

Inside the carriage was Wo Jiu, Prince An’s uncle, an Outer Gang Grandmaster Great Success Realm Martial Artist!

Shortly after he finished speaking, a tremendous force tossed the black bird out of the window.

The black bird exploded into a mist of blood in midair, its black feathers floating chaotically.

As the black bird turned to ashes, the carriage curtain lifted, revealing the interior.

An elder wearing a purple robe, embroidered with mysterious scepter patterns that could make one dizzy.

The elder’s face was crosshatched with wrinkles, hair as white as snow, with a purple circular mark on his forehead, occasionally emitting a faint purple glow.

Moreover, the elder leaned on a battered cane, missing a few small holes in the middle.

The elder’s gaze was as sharp as an eagle’s, surveying the endless sky and everything around.

"Mingqing was right, this Lu Xuan is bound to become a significant threat to our Wo family!"

"Unexpectedly, I haven’t even gone seeking him, yet Lu Xuan acted preemptively, having taken care of the people in Anzhou."

Why did Wo Jiu say this?

Because this black bird, named the Witch Spirit Bird, is a unique communication beast of the Wo family.

Furthermore, this Witch Spirit Bird was personally given to Prince An by him.

So its aura should only be that of Prince An and his close maid Chen Luomeng.

However, upon contact with the Witch Spirit Bird, Wo Jiu sensed an unfamiliar aura.

This proved that the Witch Spirit Bird had fallen into other hands.

If someone could take the Witch Spirit Bird from Prince An’s residence, it meant something happened there.

Without a doubt, it must have been the work of that so-called White Dao Prefecture’s envoy, Lu Xuan.

In all of Anzhou, only Anzhou’s governor and Lu Xuan are Outer Gang Grandmaster Great Success Realm Martial Artists.

And the audacious one to assault the Prince’s residence, must be the bold Lu Xuan.

"Mr. Jiu, does Lu Xuan truly have such audacity?"

"Even if he is an Outer Gang Grandmaster Great Success Realm Martial Artist, he shouldn’t commit such atrocious acts."

Wo Shang was greatly shocked by Wo Jiu’s words.

It was his first time witnessing someone as audacious as Lu Xuan.

He truly dared to assault the Prince’s royal residence!

This insane act was equivalent to slapping the former emperor a few times across the face in front of everyone.

Unlike the shocked Wo Shang, Wo Jiu only found it a pity regarding Lu Xuan.

Such a talented martial artist, it’s a pity he cannot be of use to our Wo family, or else the Patriarch wouldn’t have given a death order.

To bring the cane to Anzhou to kill Lu Xuan.

This cane is a Star Tool with four patterns.

In the hands of Wo Jiu, an Outer Gang Great Success Realm Martial Artist, it can briefly unleash power equivalent to a Grandmaster Perfection.

Though Lu Xuan is young and reached the Outer Gang Grandmaster Great Success Realm, he couldn’t possibly be his opponent.

With the Star Tool Moon Chasing Staff, Wo Jiu held the equivalent force of Grandmaster Perfection.

The carriage remained quietly on the road, seemingly waiting for something.

After a while, a gentle wind rose in the sky, and a figure descended, landing directly in front of the carriage.

Lu Xuan, with his hands behind his back, stared at the carriage, a slight surprise in his heart.

Had he been discovered?

Just now, the mind force he had infused into the black bird mysteriously disappeared.

As soon as Lu Xuan appeared, Wo Jiu inside the carriage opened his eyes, tightly gripping the bronze cane, stepping out of the carriage.

Even though he was prepared, upon seeing this young man, Lu Xuan, Wo Jiu was still deeply struck by his appearance.

"You are Lu Xuan?"

"Indeed, you look very young!"

"You even knew about me, and took the Prince’s Witch Spirit Bird."

"It seems that Prince An’s people left in Anzhou have all been taken care of by you."

"If you are willing to return with me to the Wo family and swear eternal loyalty, I might plead with Mingqing to spare your life."

"Our Wo family is one of the eight great families of Tiandu, even His Majesty dares not meddle in our family affairs!"

"Lu Xuan, what do you think!"

Wo Jiu finished speaking with a serene smile, seemingly confident Lu Xuan would comply.

Who could resist the immense allure of being recruited by the eight great families?

Of course, recruiting Lu Xuan was just a minor reason; the foremost goal was to uncover the great opportunity within Lu Xuan.

This tremendous fortune allowed someone who appeared only in his twenties to reach the Outer Gang Grandmaster Realm Great Success.

Even he, once a leading figure among Wo family’s youths, took over a hundred years to reach the Outer Gang Grandmaster Great Success Realm.

Wo Jiu thought the major opportunity Lu Xuan possessed hid an unimaginable great secret.

If he could gain this great fortune from Lu Xuan, perhaps he could break through to the coveted lifetime goal.

The Divine Mansion Realm!

Wo Jiu’s gaze at Lu Xuan grew fervent, as if Lu Xuan was the key to his enlightenment!

The opportunity to achieve the Divine Mansion Realm was near; anyone would go mad over it!

However, he had never imagined his ultimate goal was this Lu Xuan.

Noticing the elder’s peculiar look, Lu Xuan felt a bit perplexed.

But, disregarding it, Lu Xuan thought since the other admitted being from the Wo family, it was settled.

No matter what he thought, it would take only one strike.

In the next second, with a thought from Lu Xuan, the sky turned tumultuous, as if a reversed Milky Way!

Amidst this astonishing scene, Lu Xuan stood serenely in the void, his robes fluttering, eyes emitting a striking purple light.

Soon, a colossal palm formed from profound purple energy descended from the heavens, stirring immense waves!
