Without saying anything else, the middle-aged man closed his eyes.
After gazing at Lu Zhulong and the rest of the man with its cold eyes, the Snowdragon continued forward, two more lines of cold breeze appearing from its nostrils.
Seeing the Snowdragon go in the direction of the middle area of the city, the expression on Lu Zhulong's face changed.
" Let's go." After he spoke, Lu Zhulong immediately chased after the departing Snowdragon. Followed by the hundreds of trembling men.
" Young Master, it seems to be the guest from the main clan..." One of the men beside him said.
Lu Zhulong cleared his throat, a look of terror still in his eyes, but he still nodded. " Yes, it is. But we have never been informed about this either...something is wrong."
The Snowdragon's huge body, hard scales, sharp claws, and powerful tail served to create a terrifying appearance. Lu Zhulong believed that the man atop the back of the savage beasts was not ordinary either, as only a true martial artist could tame that kind of monster.
Looking behind him, Lu Zhulong shook his head as the soldiers of the Cloud Step City can only walk behind the threat that they can't defeat.
The city of Cloud Step's average force of man was mainly above that of warriors who experienced mortal combat. Giving the conclusion of the power was unbelievably low compared to normal rank 1 of the martial path.
Lu Zhulong continued explaining." The defensive power of the Snowdragon's scales is astonishing, and its attack power is terrifying as well. In addition, it is proficient in destructive cold aura!" Lu Zhulong's heart was filled with fear as he explained to his man and the soldiers behind.
" If faced with terrifying savage beasts such as the Snowdragon, most likely even a platoon of a thousand soldiers would be wiped out unless it's had a number of the third rank martial path who could unite to penetrate the Snowdragon's scales."
All the man's body trembled.
Even a platoon of a thousand soldiers would be wiped out?
But we're all ordinary people!
Their expression highly justifies the safety needs.
" However, the most terrifying thing is not the Snowdragon...it is the man." Lu Zhulong took two stabilizing breaths, calming his agitated heart.
By his side, the muscular man nodded as well.
" I never imagined such an important individual would come to our city."
Snowdragon, a savage beast of the sixth rank and a man with the ability that can make the beast willingly submit to being a servant. This was definitely enough to cause terror.
...
At the same time.
Household of the Lu's the sovereign of the Cloud Step city. A middle-aged man with a chiseled and handsome appearance was frowning with a deep questioning look on his face.
What happening?
After he received the report of the beast and the mysterious man arrived in the city without any news of their appearance beforehand almost scared him to death.
Although Lu's side branch family was full of trash that the main clan throw away, this doesn't mean that they are full of useless humans. A clan will always care about their face. If they knew that some wandering cultivators make a mess in their territory, how could they not be angry?
He thought silently.
" Father..." A sweet voice, like the drizzle of rain in the summer of the world sounded.
Lu Shenghou raised his head.
At the stone step nearing the warehouse of the Lu's, a tender like a tomato young girl with a look of worry. She appears to be no older and thirteen. She wears emerald-green clothing, has fair skin, and seems like a very shy person.
Looking at his daughter, Lu Shenghou's face eased. With a slow voice that can make older people shock by his vocabulary he asked instead of answering, " Lan'er...why are your here?"
" I want to fight too!" With a child-like attitude, Lu Lan swept her first forward and touch his muscles to look tough.
Sighed
Sighing, Lu Shenghou shook his head and waved his hand. After a while, a female in a martial arts uniform emerged from the bushes and bowed her head.
" Heh?...sister Lin." Stunned. Lu Lan step back slowly and ran backward after she saw her father's stern facial expressions.
" Take care of her." Without turning his head, Lu Shenghou said.
" Yes, master."
After that, Lu Shenghou walked into the north gate of the manor.
At this point, Lu Zhulong's group was roughly ten meters away from the Snowdragon. They quietly watched the events happening before them.
The man atop the Snowdragon's back jumped. Stopping at the door of the manor as he swept his gaze at the house. Hand behind his back he entered the opened door with the welcome of Lu Shenghou.
" Young master, should we go as well?"
Hearing his man's words, Lu Zhulong click his tongue and said. " Guard here, I'll go alone." That said, he followed Lu Shenghou's back.
" Yes!" The voice of a hundred men sounded.
With discipline formation, the hundreds of man soldiers surrounded the entrance of the manor and stay a bit away from the Snowdragon that coldly looking at their movement with disdain.
It seemed whatever they tried to do was utterly useless in front of these beings. But, looking at the man's expression of terror and the sweat odors fall like rain, they stand with their spear like spines up the heaven.
....
Inside the hall of the Lu manor, the one sitting on the main seat was not the family head, instead, it was the middle-aged man.
Below him were Lu Shenghou, he knelt with his family behind him. On his lips airlines of blood and with a paled face he struggles to raise his head.
" Sir, what is the meaning of this?"
He was a rank two of the martial path, but no outside injuries could be seen. As he look at his family, none of them had been injured but their faces were full of anger and frustration.
Previously, the man asked him to bring all his family members into the hall. But the moment they gathered, without any words the man before him pressed him onto the ground and make them kneeled with no way of resisting. And the most important thing was that the man was sitting with his cold gaze upon him.
" Your son, Lu Zhou has been killed by the main clan after learning the fiend techniques and tried to deceive us"
Silent prevailed in the hall.
" Impossible! Brother would never do that!" The first person who speak was Lu Lan. Although her knee and face were glowing in deep red, she yelled with some willpower in her voice.
"Hmm..." The man sitting on the main seat gaze at her. His cold red eyes were glittering with the colors of the blood as he smiled.
" What a lovely child..."
Stunned, Lu Zhulong glance at his father's expression and his mother's pale face. He gritted his teeth and said slowly. " Sir, the deeds had been done, and the perpetrator is dead. Our brother has to make a mistake, but we don't deserve the guilty from others...please let us go."
Slowly, Lu Zhulong bowed his head. Touching the floor, a tear fall from his eyes. As his forehead make a scene with the hard stone tiles, his trembling body stopped.
" Longer..." His mother and father said at the same time. Their trembling body was not able to stop like their son.
" Don't forget, your child was a traitor. As a punishment, Cloud Step City side branch will be the warning of the others". Ignoring the plead of the man who throw his pride away, he said without any empathy.
Meanwhile, the youngest of them was looking at her brother with tears. Gasping for breath, she muttered," No...brother would never do that." Her impression of Lu Zhou was deep indeed.
" But, there's away." A single sentence from the man changed Lu Shenghou's face.
Everyone who lived in this world can think. No matter the gender, relatives, and connections, arriving in this stage of life meant that not just mind has improved even wisdom will increase.
Upon the thoughts of his futile hard work in the main clan and receive the trash treatments. Lu Shenghou blue eyes stare at the man without the fear of underlying should have.
