Chapter 56: Violent Output!

Wait!

Seeing the two youths in front clenching their fists and preparing to kill his father, Lu Qingluo shouted loudly: "Is it really true that by passing the Ascension Platform one can make a request?"

"I am willing to challenge the Ascension Platform; you cannot kill my father and Brother Yunshan!"

"Haha..." Upon hearing Lu Qingluo's words, the youth couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The two youths called Xiao Lin and Tao Er on the side also wore looks of mockery.

"Miss, do you know what you are saying?" The youth teased: "You haven't even passed the entrance examination; what qualifications do you have to challenge the Ascension Platform?"

"If I do pass?" Meeting his gaze, Lu Qingluo said each word.

The youth said nothing.

"If I pass the entrance examination, and by luck pass the seven levels of the Ascension Platform, while you killed my father, can I request of the Ascension Immortal Society to kill you?"

Seeing them silent, Lu Qingluo spoke again.

Hearing this, the three youths looked at each other.

Although the Ascension Immortal Society prohibits disciples from killing each other, where there are people there are conflicts; if the two sides truly have a deadly grudge, they can apply to the society for a life-and-death duel.

Their trip is merely to help their master repay a favor; there's really no need to create a potential enemy.

"Master Uncle..."

Seeing the youth hesitate, Wu Yuanqing beside him became anxious!

Killing Hu Lin and those landlord tyrants is merely secondary; this Lu Zhiyuan is the main enemy of the Wu Family's domination of Maple Forest Town; Lu Zhiyuan must die!

"Master Nephew, rules are rules."

"However... I won't kill them, but I will detain them and hand them over to the Ascension Immortal Society; after you two finish the examination at year's end, if you truly pass the Ascension Platform, then I will release them."

Saying that, without waiting for Lu Qingluo to say more, the youth waved: "Tao Er, Xiao Lin, take them away; if they resist, kill them on the spot!"

"Father!" Lu Qingluo wanted to stop him, but Lu Zhiyuan stopped her: "Don't act rashly; while I am away, you and Fang Xu must stay safe and often listen to Fang Xu's advice."

Saying that, he then looked at Fang Xu: "Qingluo is entrusted to you; she is impulsive and easily provoked, so please advise her more."

Fang Xu nodded, bowed to Lu Zhiyuan, and said: "Master, rest assured; I understand."

Lu Zhiyuan slightly nodded and said: "Since I learned of the Wu Family's connection with the Ascension Immortal Society, I as your master foresaw this day; as my disciple, the Wu Family will certainly not let you off."

"Therefore, without your consent, I as your master privately registered you; I hope you won't blame me."

Fang Xu shook his head.

He knew Lu Zhiyuan did this to protect him; otherwise, facing the Ascension Immortal Society, he would have no hope of survival.

"After I am gone, let the Blood Food Stall go."

"These years, the money I have saved should be enough for the two of you for a period of time."

After giving these instructions, Lu Zhiyuan and Li Yunshan were taken away by the two youths.

The black-clothed youth glanced at the reluctant Wu Yuanqing, then swept his eyes over Lu Qingluo and Fang Xu, and said indifferently: "They possess the Ascension Immortal Society's Immortal Gate Pass; I cannot act against them. If you are unwilling, you may settle it yourselves, after all, those who have not undergone the examination receive no protection from the Ascension Immortal Society."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Fang Xu and Lu Qingluo heard this, and their expressions changed slightly!

This youth is clearly one who repays grudges; Lu Qingluo had just threatened him, but due to the rules he cannot act.

But at this moment he is inciting Wu Yuanqing to act, clearly intending to put the two of them to death!

Wu Yuanqing is at the Martial Apprentice Perfection level; neither I nor Lu Qingluo in practice may necessarily be his match.

"Thank you, Master Uncle, for the advice!"

Hearing the youth's words, Wu Yuanqing's face lit up with delight; he immediately gave a sinister smile and looked at Lu Qingluo and Fang Xu, saying: "Kill the two of you, and Lu Zhiyuan won't have long to live."

The aura of Martial Apprentice Perfection slowly rose as Wu Yuanqing stepped step by step toward the two of them.

Fang Xu and Lu Qingluo exchanged a glance, each gathering their strength, preparing for a life-or-death clash!

Whoosh!

Lu Qingluo is hot-tempered; seeing Wu Yuanqing approach step by step, she swept her spear fiercely, then thrust it like a dragon straight at Wu Yuanqing's head!

Fang Xu also clenched his fists, stepped hard on the ground, using the rebound force to attack Wu Yuanqing's chest!

Bang!

Relying on his Martial Apprentice Perfection cultivation, Wu Yuanqing bare-handed dodged the spear tip by turning his head, then slapped the spear shaft that Lu Qingluo thrust!

The tremendous force transmitted through the spear shaft numbed Lu Qingluo's hand, causing her attack to falter!

Having dodged Lu Qingluo's attack, Wu Yuanqing turned his left hand into a claw, ready to grab Fang Xu's incoming punch and break his arm!

But as Fang Xu's punch came forward, before it touched his palm, he suddenly bent his arm, turning the punch into an elbow!

Single Goat Charge!

Terrifying power burst from the elbow tip, directly striking Wu Yuanqing's left hand!

Bang!

A muffled sound came; Wu Yuanqing felt his left hand as if struck by a beast of immense strength!

His five fingers screamed in pain, his whole palm losing sensation!

"What strong power!"

Secretly startled, Wu Yuanqing had not expected that Fang Xu, merely at Martial Apprentice Second Level, would possess such formidable strength!

He immediately thought of striking Fang Xu's head with his right hand!

But at that moment, Lu Qingluo's spear, like a venomous snake spitting its tongue, lunged again at his head!

Wu Yuanqing startled, tilted his body, dodged that deadly strike with the same hand, and his right hand seized the spear shaft!

Bang!

A huge fist then slammed hard into his left shoulder, staggering him!

Immediately after, a barrage of fists rained down!

Long Arm Swinging Fist!

Leveraging the force of his body's spin, Fang Xu's fist crazily hammered Wu Yuanqing's raised left arm like a violent rainstorm!

The terrifying force made Wu Yuanqing retreat step by step, his whole left arm faintly aching.

Ha!

Fang Xu, attacking swiftly, suddenly stomped his foot, condensing twelve parts of his strength into his right fist, and fiercely smashed it toward Wu Yuanqing's forearm.

Crack!

A bone‑cracking sound that made one's teeth ache rang out!

Wu Yuanqing's left humerus was directly shattered by that punch, his arm bending at a strange angle!

The intense pain made Wu Yuanqing involuntarily let out a muffled groan.

Fang Xu, pressing his advantage, suddenly darted forward like an agile ape, sticking to Wu Yuanqing's body and moving to his rear, then threw a punch at the stumbling Wu Yuanqing retreating backward.

Pfft!

His solidly taken blow to the back from Fang Xu made Wu Yuanqing spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, feeling an unbearable burning pain throughout his five viscera and six bowels.

"You..." Wu Yuanqing exclaimed in shock, turning his head to stare horrified at Fang Xu, about to say something, when a sharp spear suddenly pierced through his body!

Bright red blood trickled down the spear tip!

Pfft!

Lu Qingluo suddenly pulled out the spear, Wu Yuanqing clutched his chest, eyes wide open!

Gurgle~

Gurgle~

Fresh blood gushed from his mouth in streams; after just a few breaths, he collapsed with a boom, losing all signs of life!

"What should we do now?" Looking at Wu Yuanqing's corpse, Lu Qingluo said somewhat at a loss: "The Wu family still has a Martial Master Third Stage ancestor; we two are certainly no match for him......"

"Don't worry, senior sister." Fang Xu took a deep breath and said: "The Wu family's ancestor is a disciple of that officer of the Ascending Immortal Society, and thus also a member of the Ascending Immortal Society."

"With the immortal sect's safe‑conduct, he dare not act against us privately."

"All we need to worry about now is that by killing Wu Yuanqing we have forged a deadly feud with the Wu family; though the Wu family ancestor cannot act himself, might he spend money to hire others to strike?"

"An alchemist, within the territory of Qinghe County, surely has some connections."

"If only Yun Wan were here......"
