Chapter 2372: Way Too Arrogant

Looking at the middle‑aged man trampled under Lu Tianxing’s foot, lying there like a dead dog, everyone couldn’t help feeling secretly grateful. In their hearts they’d really thought Lu Tianxing definitely wouldn’t win this time, that he would die under Tang Qingyun’s hands, so when Lu Tianxing and Tang Qingyun clashed, they’d wanted to show off in front of Tang Qingyun as well, but that middle‑aged man had simply rushed ahead of them. At first they’d even felt a bit regretful about it.

But now, seeing how things turned out, everyone only felt lucky. Fortunately it was that middle‑aged man who rushed ahead; otherwise, the one lying on the ground, crippled like a dead dog, wouldn’t be him—it would be them.

At the same time, everyone now had a clear understanding of Lu Tianxing’s strength in their hearts—Middle-stage Mythical, in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, was something he could crush with a flip of his hand, kill at will.

Right then Mu Qingliu, seeing this scene, flew into a rage, suddenly slapped the armrest and stood up, staring coldly at Lu Tianxing as he said, “Lu Tianxing, you’re presumptuous, far too presumptuous. This is the Mu Family, not your Lu Family. You actually dare start a fight in our Mu Family. Aren’t you taking our Mu Family a little too lightly?”

Lu Tianxing lit himself a cigarette, took a deep drag, then spoke in a calm tone, “I already showed mercy by leaving him a life. Otherwise, do you think he’d still be breathing right now? I’ve already said it—today I’m taking Mu Qingxue away no matter what. You can try if you’ve got the ability to keep me here, but as for the consequences, don’t blame me for not warning you.”

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words again, everyone felt a surge of madness. Lu Tianxing was just too arrogant. Even if his strength was terrifying, don’t forget, this is the Mu Family, and the Tang Family is here too. How could they possibly let Lu Tianxing be this unbridled?

“Lu Tianxing, you really think too highly of yourself. Let me make it clear to you today—our Mu Family is not a place where you can run wild.”

Mu Qingliu’s fury exploded as he said coldly, “Wu Jun, seize him for me. I want him on his knees in our Mu Family, kowtowing to apologize.”

Although he was raging inside, Mu Qingliu still hadn’t lost his basic rationality. Even if in his heart he wanted to tear Lu Tianxing into ten thousand pieces, he also knew very clearly: Lu Tianxing absolutely could not die. Even if he were to die, he absolutely could not die at the hands of Mu Family.

“Second Master, leave it to me.”

With Mu Qingliu’s voice, everyone felt their vision blur. When they opened their eyes again, an old man had already appeared in front of them, his face full of vicissitudes. He looked no different from an ordinary elder, but from the moment he walked in, the aura on his body kept climbing. This oppressive aura of a powerhouse was unbearable, even their breathing became heavy.

Mr. Mu’s gaze flickered as he saw this scene, but he didn’t speak. If Lu Tianxing wanted to take Mu Qingxue away from the Mu Family, he had to pay the price. Otherwise, if Lu Tianxing could just take Mu Qingxue away with a few words, how would the Mu Family stand in Beijing in the future?

Lin Yafei and Han Zifeng were seated below. Seeing this, both clenched their fists in an instant, their expressions solemn as they watched the unfolding scene. At the same time, they made up their minds: once Lu Tianxing was at a disadvantage, they would strike at the very first moment. Even if it meant tearing faces with the Mu Family, they would not hesitate. No matter what, they had to ensure Lu Tianxing’s safety.

“Late Stage of Mythical?”

Seeing the newcomer, Lu Tianxing’s eyes narrowed slightly, and in the first instant he sensed Wu Jun’s level of strength.

“Third Young Master of Lu Family, you’ve got some eye for talent,”

The old man named Wu Jun swept a faint glance at Lu Tianxing and said, “Third Young Master of Lu Family, I’ll give you one chance. Leave the Mu Family now, and I can let you walk out. If not, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“Be rude to me?”

Lu Tianxing’s eyes narrowed, his tone icy as he said, “Just you? A mere Martial Artist who’s just stepped into Late Stage of Mythical—you think you can do anything to me? If you want to make a move, I don’t mind personally crippling you, a so‑called Late Stage of Mythical.”

As his words fell, the True Qi on Lu Tianxing’s body exploded in an instant, surging like a tide, raging through the air. At this moment, Lu Tianxing was like a peerless divine blade, incomparably sharp.

Gradually, Lu Tianxing’s gaze turned as ferocious as a wild beast. The baleful aura hidden in his body burst out, and terrifying killing intent spread from his body as the center, rippling in all directions.

For a time, everyone in the living room felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on their hearts, making it hard to breathe.

Especially those closer to Lu Tianxing, they couldn’t help but retreat a few steps. Standing beside Lu Tianxing, they felt as if they were standing right at the Ghost Gate, as if they could die without burial at any moment.

Wu Jun, feeling the terrifying aura and killing intent erupting from Lu Tianxing, kept his face seemingly unchanged, but inside his heart was surging like a raging ocean. He’d long heard that Lu Tianxing was a monstrous freak, that with Middle-stage Mythical strength he could fight Late Stage of Mythical and remain invincible.

Originally he hadn’t believed the rumors at all, thinking them exaggerated. After all, as a Martial Artist who had just stepped into Late Stage of Mythical, he was very clear on the difference between his current self and his past self—he could now crush his former self with a pinch. So he’d never believed Lu Tianxing had that kind of ability. But now, he was actually sensing a breath of death from Lu Tianxing. In other words, Lu Tianxing truly had the ability to kill him.

“Third Young Master of Lu Family, looks like you’re dead set on not leaving today?”

Though shocked inside, Wu Jun did not retreat. Instead, his eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at Lu Tianxing, and his own aura exploded in an instant, clashing head‑on with Lu Tianxing’s.

In that moment, the two auras collided in the void, vast and mighty, almost stirring the dark clouds in the sky.

“If I don’t achieve my goal, I won’t leave. If you want to fight, go ahead and try. As for the consequences, I don’t mind making you the first Late Stage of Mythical I ever cripple.” Lu Tianxing narrowed his eyes at Wu Jun as he spoke.

Lu Tianxing’s voice was light, but when it reached the ears of the people around, it made them all suck in a breath of cold air. Lu Tianxing was simply too insane.

Even if Lu Tianxing had the combat strength to contend with Late Stage of Mythical, so what?

You have to know, this is the Mu Family—experts are as numerous as clouds. The Tang Family people are also here, watching like tigers. Lu Tianxing might be able to beat one Late Stage of Mythical, but can he beat two? Three?

Once things blew up, even if the Lu Family stepped in, they might not be able to salvage the situation.
