Divine Brilliance - Chapter 870
Chapter 870: Sandpiper Fighting A Clam
“It really is delicious! Each time I eat it, I will be awe at how amazing this thing is…”
Lu Yantian’s face flushed red like he was drunk from wine.
In the lake beside, the Shark Snake also roared out like it was venting its unhappiness.
Lu Yantian instantly burst out laughing, casually grabbing and throwing 3 newborns over.
The Shark Snake’s appearance when eating was not as well-mannered as Lu Yantian. He directly swallowed it, grinding them in its mouth before swallowing. Its face appeared satisfied before its giant body sunk back down into the water.
Lu Yantian smiled and said, “Brother Wushuang, if you like it, then just enjoy. I have a huge number of them here. These are a little younger, if they grow up and become corrupted by the energy of the world, then they would become useless…”
Lu Wushuang’s face was green and he had a cold expression on his face, “Doesn’t Brother think that this is too much? For a drop of Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow to take a life. How different are you from an enemy? I think you should stop. Once I return to the Celestial Dynasty, I will definitely report this.”
“Brother Wushuang, are you planning to educate me?”
Lu Yantian laughed out loud, his eyes filled with a mocking intent, “Dare I ask which rule and which law of the Celestial Dynasty did I break?”
Lu Wushuang’s brow furrowed, “If you do this, then how would you unify the hearts of the people in this world?”
Lu Yantian laughed without much care at all, “My Cangling World follows the rules of the Saint Emperor, only taking 40% of taxes and not randomly pillaging. There have never been lesser gifts. All war matters occured after orders. As the Master of this world, I can be considered really responsible. Even the Saint Emperor himself can’t punish me if I don’t do anything wrong. The few Country Rulers actually know…”
When he said this, his tone became darker and colder, “You are the direct bloodline of the Lu Family, so how would you know about the hardship of people like me who fell to the Lu Family branch bloodline? Even a little bit of increase in the bloodline is enough surprise!”
Lu Wushuang kept silent. With what happened to Lu Zi before, how would he not know?
The preciousness of the Lu Family Blood was not in its flame power, but in the bloodline memories hidden within by the three End Realm experts of the Lu Family and the dozens of Saint Realm Experts.
If one was able to obtain its help one could reduce hundreds and thousands of years of hardship in cultivation for the entire family.
The purity of the bloodline would decide the status of the family within the entire race…
He had seen too many cruel and sad things happen within the race.
He couldn’t help but think back to Zong Shou.
It was said that before this kid was born, half of his legacy mark was sealed by the few elders and Country Heads of the race. Only the Saint Emperor’s direct blood flowed in him.
No matter how pure his bloodline was, he wouldn’t be able to get too much unless he could break the seal.
When he was born he also had a Dual Meridian Body, Broken Soul body, so he should have had no way to cultivate at all.
His mother was under soft arrest by the race and his father was nowhere to be found.
Compared to Lu Wushuang, he was in so much more danger. However, didn’t he also climb out of the ditch?
Even if he had the Nine Tail Sky Fox legacy, he had to rely on his own ability to fight for it.
Compared to this cousin who he was closer to, he felt more respect for the enemy.
Shaking his head, he directly stood up and stepped into the void.
People with different beliefs couldn’t be close to one another and he knew that there was no way that he could persuade this person. He also wasn’t willing to get into a heated argument with him and as such he could only excuse himself.
Lu Yantian’s face twitched when he saw this and then it returned back to normal.
“I will do my best for Zong Shou’s matter. Within 40 days I will give Brother Wushuang an explanation.”
Lu Wushuang stopped for a moment, not bothering if he meant it or not as he silently left.
In just a few steps, he was outside of Cangling World into the Xuwang Ocean.
Then he looked toward the world and entered deep thought.
He stood silently for a moment and a person stepped out. It was that delicate scholar who he was with days ago.
He looked at Lu Wushuang’s expression and could roughly guess the rough situation.
“I heard that the Yantian Manor Head often uses the Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow of this world to raise his bloodline. Young Master can’t get used to that?”
Lu Wushuang nodded his head, a look of disgust appeared on his face, “It really is disgusting but there is nothing I can do about it.”
“Nothing to do about it…”
That teen’s eyes flashed and then he smiled, “In other words, Young Master isn’t going to bother about it?”
Lu Wushuang didn’t reply. Although Lu Tianyan was annoying but as compared to Zong Shou’s matter, it could be tossed to the side.
He had to use his strength to search for Zong Shou.
After dozens of years of battles, although he had hot blood, it was already burned out.
It was weird speaking about it, who knows what secret techniques Zong Shou used?
Since entering this Cangling World, he searched everywhere and was still unable to find any traces of him.
His Bloodline Sensory Ability was totally ineffective.
“Young Master is wise! At this time you still need to bear with it. If you are unhappy, when you inherit the Saint Emperor position, you can naturally stop this. Actually, who knows how many such things occur within the Lu Family, how will you be able to care about them all?”
Seemingly not continuing to dwell on this topic, the teen said seriously, “What did he say about the search?”
“He didn’t mention anything. He said that he would give me an explanation within 40 days.”
“40 days?”
The brow of the teen rose up and then he laughed coldly, “In other words, the Celestial Dynasty hopes that you would return in 40 days? This person is in charge of Cangling World and follows all rules. Without enough reason, we really can’t do anything to him.”
Lu Wushuang was a little surprised, “You aren’t going to persuade me to give up on this person and return?”
“Why return? The tall trees in the forest get their tops blown off. Although the Xuanye Country Ruler has high hopes for you, your birth is a little ordinary and there is no one to help you. Now you are everyone’s target. Even without today’s matter, Wubing also wanted to persuade you to first store up strength for a period of time.”
The teen said impassively, his gaze was also lighting up and dimming down constantly, “This matter is great. I really can’t see the depths of this Zong Shou. If he returns to the Lu Family, he will be your enemy. Even if you offend the Saint Emperor, you still have to wipe him out. I really feel uneasy unless I personally see this person fall. The only thing to consider would be Lu Tianyan joining hands with Zong Shou…”
Lu Wushuang was slightly shocked. Strictly speaking, Zong Shou was also one of the candidates for the future Lu Family Saint Emperor.
Since Lu Yantian could work with him, then naturally he could cooperate with Zong Shou too…
Then, he shook his head. He knew the Zong Shou’s background
He definitely wouldn’t have intentions of working with the Lu Family people.
Such a possibility was really small.
He clenched his fists and he felt a hot blood rise in his chest.
…There was one more month. However, he felt like he couldn’t even wait for a single moment.
He really wanted to just kill Zong Shou under his sword right away.
At the same time, within Cangling World, Tianyan Manor.
Still in the courtyard, Lu Xichen bowed. Beside the stone table, Lu Yantian laughed softly.
“The suspicious person you noticed in Shuiyue Convent might be Zong Shou? Did you try to verify, how confident are you?”
Seeing Lu Xichen not daring to speak, Lu Yantian didn’t mind and just laughed out loud.
“Interesting, interesting! What a waste what a waste…”
Like a sandpiper fighting a clam, however, this clam was just too small and too weak.
He was the fisherman, unable to obtain any benefits…
The laughter stopped and it turned into a sigh.
