Tu Yu thought, even if the Man in green robes in front of him truly possessed Void Realm cultivation, as long as he launched a sneak attack, Lu Chen would at least be severely injured and suffer greatly, even if he didn't die!
If this strike hit Lu Chen...
Then, what Tu Yu would face would only be a severely wounded Void Realm expert!
Facing a severely wounded Void Realm expert, Tu Yu's chances of escaping successfully would be much higher!
【Ding: The System has detected hostility towards the Host. The opponent used an item. The item detected is an Attack Talisman: It contains the full power strike of a Void Realm expert.】
【The System has triggered the passive "Feedback Amplification." The Host has received an Attack Talisman x1, which contains the full power strike of a Divine Soul Realm expert!】
【The System has automatically placed the "Divine Soul Realm Attack Talisman" into the System Warehouse. The Host can retrieve and use it at any time.】
As the System's notification sound faded...
An Attack Talisman instantly appeared in the System Warehouse.
At the same time...
"Hahahaha, die for me!"
Tu Yu felt the time was right, raised his hand to secretly unfurl the life-saving talisman, and was about to unleash the attack on Lu Chen!
The next moment, before Tu Yu could even release the Attack Talisman...
Lu Chen raised his hand and delivered a slap, directly turning the attacking Tu Yu into a mist of blood!
The life-saving talisman, which hadn't been released yet, also drifted to the ground with Tu Yu's death!
Lu Chen would not be merciful to such dishonest individuals!
Because in this treacherous world of Cultivators, only he himself could always be trusted!
As for other relationships, good or bad, they were all tied to interests!
Subsequently, Lu Chen raised his hand and gathered his Divine Thought.
The next second, two transparent afterimages appeared before Lu Chen.
These were the Divine Souls of Qin Feng and Tu Yu!
This was Soul Extraction Art; after a Cultivator dies, their Divine Soul can be gathered. In this state, no matter what is asked, if the Divine Soul knows it, it will truthfully reveal it!
Lu Chen looked at the two Divine Souls and asked, "Who sent you to kill me? Tell me everything you know!"
"We were hired by the Wu Family of Tianyun City. We were ordered by the Wu Family Patriarch to intercept and kill you," Qin Feng's Divine Soul replied.
Lu Chen continued to ask, "The Wu Family of Tianyun City? Then why did you just say it was the Lin Family of Tianyun City? Also, how did you know I would pass through here? How did you know my location?"
Tu Yu's Divine Soul had a dull gaze, answering whatever was asked like a puppet: "Because the Lin Family of Tianyun City and our employer, the Wu Family, are sworn enemies. I deliberately said I was from the Lin Family to frame them!"
Qin Feng's Divine Soul said, "We knew your location because the Wu Family Patriarch told us. The Wu Family Patriarch said that a certain 'Adult' used a special secret technique to accurately pinpoint your location."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen's brows furrowed slightly.
"That 'Adult'? Which 'Adult'? What is his name, and what is his background?"
Lu Chen fired off a series of questions.
He hadn't expected that he, a Mortal, would be so closely watched by others, and by someone referred to as an "Adult"?
As for Lu Chen, his System Awakening had only happened a few hours ago, and he had only exposed his cultivation in Luoshui City, which was on the other side of Qingzhou.
Even if news from his side traveled quickly, it would still take several days to reach here.
That is to say...
This mastermind might have already been watching Lu Chen for a long time, only delaying action until now!
And now, Lu Chen wanted to use Qin Feng and Tu Yu's Divine Souls to uncover the identity and whereabouts of the "Adult" they spoke of.
However, after hearing Lu Chen's questions, Qin Feng and Tu Yu's Divine Souls did not open their mouths; they merely shook their heads blankly.
Seeing this, Lu Chen did not continue to ask.
Because the two in their Divine Soul state would not lie about anything; they could only speak the truth!
And both Divine Souls shaking their heads in unison indicated that they truly did not know!
Subsequently, Lu Chen waved his hand at Qin Feng and Tu Yu's Divine Souls!
The two Divine Souls instantly dissipated, turning to ash and leaving no trace!
Lu Chen was never soft-hearted towards those who sought to kill him!
"Tianyun City?"
"The Wu Family..."
Lu Chen muttered to himself.
If he wanted to understand what was truly going on and who wanted to kill him, it seemed he would have to make a trip to the Wu Family of Tianyun City!
As for Tianyun City...
Lu Chen wasn't surprised by the city's name.
Among all of Qingzhou, Tianyun City ranked among the top ten cities.
And within the city, two major Families were in opposition.
They were the Wu Family and the Lin Family.
The two Families were the giants of the eastern and western parts of Tianyun City, respectively.
Both Families controlled half of Tianyun City's ore veins, and their Family businesses relied on crystal mines for their livelihood!
Therefore, both Families were constantly at odds, fighting over the Spiritual Crystal ore veins, to the point of never interacting!
As for why Lu Chen knew all this...
During his three years of travel, Tianyun City and a few other cities were the only ones Lu Chen hadn't visited yet.
Of course, Lu Chen had already made plans and roughly understood these cities.
It was just that Lu Chen hadn't managed his time well.
He hadn't expected that the three years would be up before he even got to travel to Tianyun City!
...The West City District of Tianyun City. The streets and houses here were neatly arranged, looking very orderly.
Compared to Luoshui City, Tianyun City was several times larger and more prosperous.
And in the very center of the West City District, there was a huge mansion, which was the location of the Wu Family.
At this moment, inside the Wu Family's mansion...
The Wu Family Patriarch, Wu Hantian, sat cross-legged in his room, meditating with his eyes closed in a unique posture.
"Clang, clang, clang..."
Just then, the door was suddenly knocked.
"Come in."
At this moment, Wu Hantian slightly opened his eyes and called out towards the door.
Upon hearing this, a Man in blue robes walked in, fanning himself.
After seeing the Wu Family Patriarch, Wu Hantian, the Man in blue robes respectfully clasped his hands.
"Jiang Yun greets the Wu Family Patriarch!"
Seeing this, Wu Hantian waved his hand at the Man in blue robes.
"There's no need for such formalities between us!"
Subsequently, Wu Hantian's expression suddenly became serious!
"How did the matter I entrusted to you go?"
The Man in blue robes named Jiang Yun smiled slightly and said, "Wu Family Patriarch, rest assured. Qin Feng and Tu Yu are my two most capable subordinates. They both have Purple Mansion Realm cultivation. Dealing with a Mortal is more than enough!"
He was the elder brother of Qin Feng and Tu Yu, Jiang Yun!
Then, Jiang Yun continued, "As long as the location and time given by the Wu Family Patriarch are accurate, that fellow named Lu Chen won't escape!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hantian's mouth twitched almost imperceptibly.
"Rest assured, the location and place given by the Adult have never been wrong all this time!"
"However, we still cannot let our guard down. I see that the Adult attaches great importance to this Lu Chen. The plan seems to have reached a critical moment. If anything goes wrong, neither you nor I can bear the responsibility!"
Wu Hantian suddenly frowned and then said, "I don't quite trust your two subordinates. How about you go yourself..."
Wu Hantian thought to himself.
Although the Qingyun Peak Lord named Lu Chen was rumored to be just a Mortal...
If he truly were a Mortal...
Then there would be no need to mobilize a Purple Mansion Realm grand Cultivator; even a small fry in the Spiritual Qi Realm would be more than enough.
It was just that the higher-ups said the plan had reached a critical moment.
No errors were allowed!
That's why Wu Hantian was somewhat worried.
Fearing that something might go wrong!
However, just as Wu Hantian was speaking, a Disciple of the Wu Family rushed over to report.
"Patriarch, something bad has happened!"
