Chapter 373: Don’t Blame Me!
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
“Aunt!”
Lu Li rushed over to Lu Feixue. He was relieved to see that even if she was covered in blood, she hadn’t sustained serious injuries.
Lu Feixue’s hair was disheveled. Her clothes were torn up in many places. Her face was covered in blood and the craziness in her eyes made her seem insane. Seeing Lu Li coming over, she paused and then cried her eyes out. The sword dropped from her hand. She buried herself in Lu Li’s arms and burst into a rage of tears.
Yu Huashen and Ming Yu rushed over. When they took a look around, their hearts were weighed down with sorrow. There must be a least more than 100 people dead. It had turned out to be a very grave matter…
“Alright, it’s okay now. Aunt, don’t be afraid. I am here. Nobody can harm you!”
Lu Li could feel Lu Feixue trembling. She cried so hard and she must be terrified and at a loss. He comforted her by patting her shoulders.
He did not know why Lu Feixue suddenly went violent and started killing people tonight. She killed servants, escorts and maids no less. But he could tell that she must have been irritated to be this insane.
Whatever the reason was, Lu Li had made up his mind to protect Lu Feixue tonight. Anyone dared to hurt her must step over his body first.
“Aunt, let’s go back!”
Lu Li saw many escorts around here with rage and fear in their eyes. But they were afraid to go over. He whispered to Lu Feixue, hugged her and was ready to go.
“You want to run? Stop them. We must stall them till my father returns even if all have to die.”
Someone shouted from in the house but he was afraid to come out. He must be fearful that Lu Feixue might kill him. The other escorts in the yard looked at each other, made up their minds and blocked the way out.
The yard was big and luxurious. It must have belonged to a patriarch of the External Clan. The escort also told him that it belonged to a Patriarch Li. It seemed that this patriarch was not in, otherwise, Lu Feixue couldn’t have killed so many people.
Bottom line, Lu Feixue openly killed people and she killed so many servants. This in itself was wrong. Lu Li could not wait for the return of Patriarch Li just to be caught. If they could go now, they still could have a room for maneuver even after Patriarch Li went to look for them at the Mystic Armor Mountain and demanded justice.
Lu Li made up his mind, released his Fate Wheel and took Lu Feixue up with him. Then he shouted to Yu Huashen and Ming Yu, “Let’s go~”
“What is going on?”
Just as Lu Li flew up, a man came over from the north at a horrible speed. That was an old man with white hair. His qi and energy were suffocating. He must be at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. Lu Li recognized him at once. The day Lu Zhengtan came back, this man was at the yard, so he must be a patriarch of the External Clan.
“Father…”
From the backyard came out three middle-aged man. They were all at the Eternal Realm. They released their Fate Wheels and one of them shouted to the old man, “I don’t know what has got into Lu Feixue. She put on a killing spree at our house. Shan-er and Li-er were killed by her.”
“Eh?”
The old man pulled his face. He emitted killing intent. As he looked over to Lu Feixue, he took out a long sword. His expressions were even more awful after he took a look around. He looked at Lu Feixue with a cold face and said, “Lady Feixue, you are a member of the Lu Family for sure, but you cannot kill with no reason at all. If you don’t make yourself clear to me, I can only repay you with the same offer today!”
Yu Huashen and Ming Yu flew up and released their Beads of Life. Lu Li asked Ming Yu to take care of Lu Feixue, cupped his fists and said, “Are you Patriarch Li? I just came over as well and I don’t know what had happened. It is wrong that my aunt killed people, but can we resolve this matter at the Hall of Patriarchs?”
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Patriarch Li laughed mockingly, “Resolve? I am Li Yuan and I have devoted my life to the Lu Family. But she has killed my granddaughter and grandson without giving a reason. Why didn’t she resolve the matter before she started killing? If my family is in the wrong, why don’t she kill them after a verdict was issued? If you don’t give me an explanation, I can only repay blood with blood. I will kill Lu Feixue and then I will go to the Hall of Patriarchs and answer to my crime.”
What Patriarch Li said was true. If Lu Feixue and the Li Family had some disputes, she should have asked the Hall of Patriarchs to resolve it. She would even be fine… if she had only killed one or two people and touched none of the offspring of Patriarch Li.
However, Lu Feixue started killing right away. She was definitely the one in the wrong. It was normal that Patriarch Li would fly into rage after he came back and saw a yard full of bodies among which there were his grandson and granddaughter.
“There is nothing to be explained!” Lu Feixue suddenly said and her eyes were red, “Li Li is a bitch and she deserves to die. You all do.”
“Alright, fine!”
Patriarch Li laughed an angry laugh. His desire to kill became even greater He looked at Lu Li and said, “Young Master Li, please make way. I have to offend her today.”
“Patriarch Li, calm down.”
Of course, Lu Li would not step aside. He cupped his fists and said, “My aunt is a gentle and mild person. She must have been irritated. Please hold on for a second and I believe that the Hall of Patriarchs would send people over soon. We can put on a trial right here in public. If it is my aunt’s mistake, I will shoulder all the responsibilities.”
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Lu Li’s words enraged Patriarch Li. He said with a scorn, “Gentle, mild? Can she be called gentle and mild when she even killed servants without a reason? You shoulder the responsibilities? How? Life for a life. You want to die for her or cover her up?”
Lu Li was getting more and more worried as Patriarch Li grew more furious. He only wanted to contain the scale of this matter. Otherwise, it would become more unfavorable for Lu Feixue.
He threw a look to the north and became curious—
It had been such a sensational matter. Why hadn’t Patriarch Eight and Patriarch Four come out? None of the other patriarchs came, either. Could it be… this night was a trap for them?
Big Families all had unique ways to pass on information to prevent any spies from sneaking in and started killing madly? The Lu Family was having an unusually slow reaction. Few escorts came here and Patriarch Feng who was in charge of the escorts failed to show up. If the Lu Family warriors were worthy of this name, then something else must be wrong!
Lu Family was one of the 12 Royal Families and the most prestigious family at the Central Plains. If the Lu Family people were this useless, there would have been no Lu Family.
Therefore, what happened tonight was out of ordinary. There must be somebody behind all this.
Lu Li managed to straighten his thoughts in a split of a second. He glanced over and made sure that Patriarch Feng, the one for maintaining orders, hadn’t come yet. Lu Li put on a mocking smile and said, “Patriarch Li, I think there is more to this matter. You can cultivate to the peak of the Noble Lord Realm so you are no idiot. Think about it. If you really want to resort to violence, then you will have to have a taste of me.”
“You?”
Nobody knew if Patriarch Li really understood what Lu Li was trying to convey to him. Or maybe he was just consumed with anger so he couldn’t think straight. Just as Lu Li finished his sentences, Patriarch Li slid over and waved his sword as if there were thousands of willow leaves dancing around in the sky. He moved in a soundless way toward sLu Feixue, trying to stab her and shouting at the same time, “I am sorry, Lady Feixue. After I kill you, I will go to the Hall of Patriarchs and ask for a death sentence myself.”
“You want to kill my aunt? You are not that good yet!”
With a wobble, Lu Li generated clones. The Fate Wheel under his feet had clones as well. There were more than a dozen Lu Li with Fate Wheels dancing in the sky. They made a charge to Patriarch Li in a formidable way.
This skill was quite impressive as it contained the Mirror Image Profound Meaning. Back at the northern Central Plains, that demon could control Lu Li’s body to generate dozens clones, each one with a Coffin of the Dragon King so real that not even warriors at the peak of Noble Lord Realm were able to tell them apart.
Patriarch Li couldn’t tell, either. Lu Li’s right sleeve was torn apart as a beautiful beast claw appeared. The gloomy killing intent enveloped Patriarch Li at once.
Lu Li’s angry shouts resounded in an area with a radius of more than a mile, “Patriarch Li, I will give one more chance you. Will you fall back or not? If not, then don’t blame me being for merciless!”
