C8 Elder Fishhawk

In Celestial Illusion Dynasty, sects coexisted with the Imperial Court.

Generally speaking, the sect was basically filled with cultivators. They would not easily interfere in mortal affairs.

They were beyond the norm, and focused on cultivating, pursuing the pinnacle of martial arts.

Although the Imperial Family had countless experts, they still felt some fear when facing the sect.

The Scorching Sun Sect was the strongest sect in the Prince Zhan's Prefecture. It had a very strong influence and had many Soul Meridian Stage disciples under its wing.

And this old man in front of them was actually Elder Yu Ying of the Scorching Sun Sect.

"Elder Yu Ying of the Scorching Sun Sect?"

Lu Chen was stunned.

Uncle Fu heaved a sigh of relief. If Elder Yu Ying was here today, then today's matter would be considered over. Otherwise, once the Lei family revolts, how could he and Lu Chen defend against it?

"Elder Yu Ying."

The Lei family's Great Elder cupped his fist and said with a smile on his face.

It was said that Elder Yu Ying had reached the Soul Meridian Stage a long time ago. There was even a rumor that he had broken through the bottleneck and stepped into the Original Core Stage.

A big shot like him could destroy the Lei family with just a wave of his hand.

"The Genius Banquet is just around the corner, why are you in such a hurry?"

Elder Yu Ying held his breath and said with a deeper meaning.

Moo!

His mount Yellow Ox seemed to respond to its master and made a moo.

Instantly, the two elders of the Lei family appeared slightly embarrassed.

"Elder Yu Ying, there's something you don't know..."

The Great Elder wanted the evil man to file a complaint first, saying that Lu Chen had used the authority of the City Lord to seek revenge for his personal vendetta, crippling Lei Ming. However, he was stopped by Elder Yu Ying before he could finish his sentence.

"Alright, let's end this here."

The people of Lei family looked at each other in dismay. The two elders looked at each other and shook their heads.

Elder Yu Ying had already said so. If this continued, it would definitely make him angry.

Compared to Elder Yu Ying, what was Lu Chen?

"Since Elder Yu Ying has spoken, then my Lei family naturally won't pursue this matter any further." The Great Elder said.

Elder Yu Ying nodded his head, then looked at Lu Chen, "Little guy, your strength isn't bad."

Lu Chen stared at Elder Yu Ying silently.

In fact, even if Elder Yu Ying didn't come, he would still be able to deal with today's situation.

"Thank you, Elder Yu Ying." Uncle Fu cupped his fist and expressed his gratitude.

On the other hand, Lu Chen was deep in thought. Why did the people of Scorching Sun Sect come to Tianhuang City?

In his memory, the Scorching Sun Sect's headquarters was in Prince Zhan's Prefecture. The higher ups of the sect had a good relationship with his father, Prince Zhan.

Now that they had come here, what was the purpose of their visit?

While Lu Chen was deep in thought, the Lei family's Great Elder had invited Elder Yu Ying to the Lei family as a guest.

"Elder Yu Ying, tomorrow will be the Genius Banquet jointly organized by the three major families of Tianhuang City. If you are interested, you can come to the Lei family as a guest. When the time comes, you can take a look at it. Perhaps some good seedlings will emerge. "

The Great Elder said with a smile.

No matter what, if he could establish a relationship with the Scorching Sun Sect, then his Lei family's status in the Tianhuang City would be greatly improved.

Furthermore, he still had some selfish motives. He wanted to use the relationship between Elder Yu Ying and send Lei Lian and the rest of the people from the Lei family to cultivate in the Scorching Sun Sect.

"Sure."

Elder Yu Ying nodded in agreement.

Before he left, he gave Lu Chen a meaningful glance.

The square was filled with noise. Everyone was talking about Elder Yu Ying.

"Young master, let's go back first." Uncle Fu said in a low voice.

...

Soon, the news of what happened in the Lei family Industrial Plaza had spread.

The three families were shocked when they heard that Lu Chen had shattered the stone monument with a single punch. At the same time, they were guessing whether Lu Chen had obtained some kind of inheritance that allowed him to increase his strength by leaps and bounds.

Of course, there were also some disdainful voices. They believed that even if the stone monument was destroyed, it could only prove that Lu Chen was very powerful.

In the path of martial arts, brute force alone was not enough.

Especially Body Tempering Stage, who strengthened his foundation and strengthened his spirit, activating all the meridians in his body.

The more meridians he activated, the stronger his strength would be.

The geniuses of Muh family and Hong Family looked at him with disdain. The younger generation of Lei family were furious. Lei Ming was also a member of Lei family. Even if he made a mistake, he wouldn't be ruthless next time.

They were clamoring, and the Genius Banquet would see them.

Regarding this, Lu Chen just smiled.

In his past life, he had cultivated for hundreds of millions of years, so what kind of big waves had he not seen?

Furthermore, what kind of threat could a mere Body Tempering Stage warrior pose to him?

...

The Genius Banquet had entered its final preparation period.

The younger generation of the three families had already made their preparations, especially when they found out that Elder Yu Ying of the Scorching Sun Sect was passing by the Tianhuang City and was here to watch the battle. They were extremely excited.

The higher ups of the family gave out their orders one after another, telling them to pay any price to attract Elder Yu Ying's attention.

If they could obtain Elder Yu Ying's approval and join the Scorching Sun Sect, they would be able to soar to the sky with just a single step.

The entire Tianhuang City was bustling with noise and excitement.

The next day, early in the morning, the streets were filled with people. In front of the mansion of the Lei family, there was a sea of people and carriages.

Lu Chen, accompanied by Uncle Fu, left the City Lord's Mansion and headed to the Thunder Prefecture.

He rubbed his temples, feeling a little tired. After thinking for the whole night, he still couldn't figure out why Elder Yu Ying had suddenly appeared.

"Uncle Fu, what do you think Elder Yu Ying came to Tianhuang City for?" Lu Chen asked.

Uncle Fu shook his head, "He might be here to select a few good seedlings from the Genius Banquet."

Unknowingly, Lu Chen had arrived in front of the Thunder Prefecture.

At this moment, the people from the Muh family arrived.

"Hmph, he really dares to participate?" Mu Yi sneered.

"Crippling Lei Ming yesterday, and coming to the Genius Banquet today? Is he asking for trouble?" Mu Chen said.

The number one genius of Muh family, Mu Tong, glanced at Lu Chen without saying anything.

The patriarch of Muh family and the other higher ups had arrived early to accompany Elder Yu Ying.

These juniors had arrived later, but they didn't expect to bump into someone from City Lord's Mansion at the entrance.

"City Lord is also here to participate in the Genius Banquet?"

The people of the Muh family greeted him as a symbolic gesture.

Lu Chen nodded his head and swept his gaze across Muh Wan.

The latter's expression changed. In the end, she took light steps and walked in front of Lu Chen. "Lu Chen, I heard that you crippled Lei Ming yesterday?"

Lu Chen didn't say anything. Muh Wan continued, "You shouldn't have done that. With your power in Tianhuang City, you are no match for the Lei family. You should hurry back."

"Muh Wan, why are you talking nonsense with him? People like him who don't know the truth won't live for long." Mu Yi mocked.

"I think he wants to use the Genius Banquet as a springboard to attract the attention of Elder Yu Ying, right?" Mu Chen said.

"Alright, let's go in." Mu Tong said as he led the group into the Thunder Prefecture.

Muh Wan looked at the silent Lu Chen and shook her head. A trace of determination flashed across her eyes, "Impulse, stubbornness, and absolute strength. Lu Chen, you have disappointed me."

Muh Wan turned around and didn't say anything else.

She knew that once she turned around, there would no longer be any interaction between them.

She had said everything that needed to be said, but Lu Chen did not listen to her advice. In that case, all the consequences were his own fault.

"Young master, don't take it to heart." Uncle Fu comforted her.

Lu Chen smiled, and an invisible pressure radiated from his body.

"Why should I care about others when I'm doing things?"
