Chapter 139 - The Song Clan Has a Death Wish
Lu Xuan’s ability to raze sects or clans single-handedly was a testament to his terrifying combat prowess.
The so-called “Clan-razing Force” that he possessed was not how one would have named the levels conventionally; it was a title bestowed only on someone with powers befitting the use of such a title.
While powers between individuals naturally differed greatly at every level, at the current stage, the only level of beings that were undoubtedly capable of such clan-razing feats were those at the Deity level.
Only beings at the Deity level would be able to single-handedly knock out a clan or sect.
Many had claimed that Lu Xuan possessed such a level of power, but what had happened right before the eyes of the crowd truly cemented the fact that Lu Xuan was indeed capable of such godly feats.
Such a level of power meant that many cultivators saw him as little different from a walking nuclear bomb.
He truly had become the nuclear bomb among cultivators.
They were unable to achieve their goal in that battle.
Zhang Hongyang ended up grievously injured, too. Despite the fact that he was a National Guardian as well, he was nonetheless caught in a pincer attack between two fighters at his level. The disadvantage was severe enough that he ended up getting seriously hurt in the fight.
If it hadn’t been for the representatives from the Special Task Force showing up just in time, Zhang Hongyang would have probably died in that battle.
The two disciples of Zhang Hongyang suffered injuries all over as well.
Lu Xuan’s family was even caught up in the battle. Lu Shanshan’s arm was injured, and she was being treated in the hospital.
It was a good thing that his family members had all became sufficiently trained by this point, so much so that they were able to fight back despite being ambushed by the elite fighters of the Song Clan.
Although they were able to repel the invaders from the Song Clan eventually, Lu Xuan was still left severely shaken.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Lu. Our security measures have been lacking.” Ming Yueyao, the provincial chief of the Min Province Special Task Force, apologized as soon as she got to the manor.
She had acquired firsthand information about that fight on the mountain while she was on her way. She even managed to acquire video footage.
The frightening combat prowess demonstrated by Lu Xuan was so unimaginable that it was something rarely seen even among Deity-level cultivators.
Although she was a National Guardian level cultivator, Ming Yueyao had to admit that she was beneath them.
In truth, if it weren’t for the behemoth that was the Special Task Force backing her up, she would not even have the right to stand before Lu Xuan.
Level difference among cultivators was a clear-cut thing. The power difference between beings just a single level apart was like the difference between heaven and earth, and that extended to their social status as well.
“It’s fine. Can’t say that you guys are the ones at fault in the first place,” Lu Xuan answered plainly. At the end of the day, he had more faith in the intimidation factor posed by the Special Task Force than the agency’s actual capabilities.
The Special Task Force had only one National Guardian level officer stationed in the entirety of Min Province, so it was absurd to have both Ming Yueyao and Zhang Hongyang stay at the manor to serve him at all times.
“One way or another, this is indeed our fault.” She shook her head and continued, “I didn’t expect your subordinate to be a National Guardian, by the way.”
