Chapter 91
Lu Qing did not have much of an impression of this Lu mingnan. He opened the system interface and looked at his details before he remembered this person.
Lu mingnan’s grandfather was Lu Qing’s eighth son, Lu chaozhao.
Lu chaoshao’s third child did not have spiritual roots and could not cultivate. He died of illness a few years ago.
Lu mingnan himself was a cultivator with three spiritual roots, but he did not work hard in his cultivation and his comprehension was just so-so. He was 33 years old this year and was at the fifth level of the Qi refining stage. He usually did not have much of a presence in the family.
Why did mingchao want to execute him?
He really had to go back and take a look.
Lu Qing first told chaoxi that he was going to temporarily withdraw his divine sense and that he should not panic if he could not find him.
After that, he removed his conquest mode and spent 10 karma to teleport back to Yuyan mountain. He then appeared on his physical body in the seclusion chamber at the back of Yuyan mountain.
After some thought, he decided not to test out the so-called cultivation function. Instead, he went out for a walk and saw something.
The execution had ended. However, Lu Qing had only been teleported back from the northern border in an instant. It was very quick. Hence, there was still an end to the matter.
In front of the ancestral hall, he saw a few clansmen dragging Lu mingnan, who was no longer breathing. It was said that he would not be buried in the ancestral grave on Yuyan mountain. Instead, he would be cremated, and his ashes would be scattered.
Lu Qing sent a voice transmission to mingchao and asked her to come over. He then returned to the closed-door cultivation room.
Lu mingchao arrived very quickly.
When she arrived at the door of the closed-door cultivation room, her expression was not very good. It could even be said that she was a little ugly.
“Tell me, what happened?”
“Father.” Lu mingchao bowed first. She knew what her father was asking about without asking. Lu mingnan colluded with outsiders to Rob the family’s property. After he was caught red-handed, he will be publicly judged by the family and executed.
After that, Lu mingchao told Lu Qing everything in detail.
Lu mingnan had gotten to know a group of itinerant cultivators outside. There were more than ten of them, and the two most powerful ones were at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage. They came from the South. It was said that it was a small sect in the past, but it was broken into, and the remaining people fled to the North.
Putting aside the strength of this group of people, they were really poor. So far, they had not even found a spirit vein. When he cultivated normally, he could only rely on the consumption of spirit stones, which was even worse.
In order not to regress in their cultivation, they had already taken a risk and done some dirty work in Sishui County, which was further south. However, it was said that they did not earn much. Instead, they had offended the leader of the itinerant cultivators in Sishui County, the foundation building cultivator, mu Yangcheng. However, they were not caught and had no choice but to escape to Pingyao County.
This time, their appetites were bigger, and they had their eyes on the Lu family.
Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t dare to provoke the cultivators of the clan. However, they were too poor. Many of them had already experienced a decline in their cultivation. If they did not do something, they would really be finished.
They had heard from Lu mingnan that the Lu clan would be sending a batch of magical equipment to the anling Prefecture soon, including five Jade suppression plates. This level one high-grade defensive magic tool could be worth at least a few hundred spirit stones if they were to snatch it and sell it. If they could also bring along some other resources, they would definitely be able to make a fortune.
The most important thing was that Lu mingnan had personally said that he was willing to be a spy.
When Lu Qing heard this, he felt that it was ridiculous.
No matter what, Lu mingnan was a direct descendant of the Lu family-in fact, all the current members of the Lu family with the surname Lu were his direct descendants-why would he be with a group of itinerant cultivators?
It was understandable if they were careless in making friends, but colluding with outsiders to Rob their own merchant group? What was this person thinking?
Lu mingchao said,”before big brother led the team to the northern border, they were given priority in equipping a batch of magical equipment produced by the clan.” In addition, they took advantage of this period of time when the prices are better to sell the rest first, so the supply within the family has slowed down.”
This was a very normal strategy. The price of the Jade suppression plate had doubled when the prices of goods soared at the beginning of the war. After all, the cultivators of the Lu clan had to go to war, and their equipment could not fall behind. The remaining equipment must be sold at a high price.
As for the other members of the clan, it was actually not a big deal that they could not get their hands on the magic tools. After all, a magic tool had nothing to do with cultivation. There was no need to do anything in the family. It was not a big deal to not have one for the time being. It was reasonable to make way for the righteousness of the family.
However, not everyone thought the same. Lu mingnan was one of them.
He harbored a grudge against them for this, thinking that the family favored one over the other.
He himself was not talented and did not work hard enough, so his cultivation had been stagnant. However, very few people would admit that they were really trash, especially when they were still young. He also blamed this on the clan, thinking that the clan had not raised them well enough.
When he was in the clan, he often complained, saying things like ‘it’s better to be a rogue cultivator’,’ isn’t freedom more useful than ten spirit stones a year?’ Words.
This was Bullsh * t.
As a fifth-stage Qi refining cultivator, it would be impossible for him to save up ten spirit stones in a year if he went out on his own. It was even more impossible for him to exchange for various resources from the clan at a fair or even discounted price. The three purities pill he had taken last year was something that rogue cultivators outside would have to risk their lives to get. He had exchanged it for some spirit stones, and the spirit stones were given to him by his family on time every year.
However, some people were just like that, greedy like a snake that swallowed an elephant.
Hearing his words, some people in the clan were also very displeased, and there were some quarrels and conflicts.
This time, he heard that the clan would have six cultivators to protect some magic tools and deliver goods to the Husheng trading company in anling Prefecture. Among the escorts were two of the people he had once had a conflict with. Therefore, he had an evil intention and contacted his wandering cultivator friends to Rob them.
If that was all, Lu mingchao might still let him off on account of her deceased eighth brother. She might expel him from the family or imprison him.
However, there was one thing that could not be forgiven.
Those thieves might be pretty strong among the itinerant cultivators, but they would not be able to win against the cultivators of the Lu clan.
The people who participated in this transportation included Lu tinghua, the elder of the “ting” generation, who was at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage. There was also Lu mingling, who was a rising star who was already at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage at the age of forty-five and also cultivated the Thunder method. The remaining four people also had their own abilities. The itinerant cultivators whose cultivation levels had begun to decline were in a stalemate, even though they had more than twice the number of people.
At this moment, Lu mingnan, who had been hiding in the shadows, made his move.
At first, the cultivators of the Lu family thought that he was a helper and were not on guard. When he got close, they even let go of their formation to let him in so that they would not be isolated and surrounded.
However, he had taken this opportunity to attack and injure two of his clan’s cultivators.
But in the end, they still did not win. Lu mingnan was captured, and the wandering cultivators saw that things were not going well, so they left the four corpses and fled in a hurry.
At the family meeting, the family members who heard this could no longer bear it and demanded the death penalty.
Lu mingchao was so angry that she took action herself.
After killing Lu mingnan, Ming Chao went to the eighth brother’s grave to pay his respects. On the way back, he was called over by Lu Qing.
