Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Lu Zheng Is a Good Young Man

A scream echoed, and immediately rustling sounds came from the chamber behind Lu Zheng.

Soon, the wooden window was lifted open slightly, revealing two pairs of eyes behind it.

"It’s me, Lu Zheng, no need for alarm."

"It’s Young Master Lu!"

"Ah, ah, we’re not afraid!"

Sounds came from the backyard too, evidently, Elder Liu and his wife, along with the Liu Family Sisters, were awakened by the scream of Old Third.

"It’s you!"

The moonlight was bright, illuminating the night, and everyone remaining clearly saw Lu Zheng’s face.

In the next moment, Old Fourth drew a dagger from his waist and lunged at Lu Zheng.

"Old Fourth, be careful!"

"This one’s tough!"

Old First and Old Second shouted while each drawing a short knife, attacking from both sides.

Old Fourth shouted fiercely and charged, but Lu Zheng parried with his hand. The opponent suddenly pulled back, dodged the strike, and then swiftly closed in, aiming the dagger at Lu Zheng’s throat.

Lu Zheng sidestepped, his long saber swung upward in a counter move.

"Clang!"

Old Fourth deflected the saber with his dagger and quickly retreated.

Meanwhile, Old First and Old Second were closing in.

Lu Zheng noticed Old First and Old Second approaching with the corner of his eye, then advanced instead of retreating.

You, Old Fourth, want to wait to surround me? Not so easily!

Let’s have you lie down, too!

As Old Fourth retreated, Lu Zheng sprang forward.

"You!"

Old Fourth was shocked. He had only intended to feign an attack to hold Lu Zheng back, yet Lu Zheng pursued him.

Seeing Lu Zheng getting close, Old Fourth yelled in anger, raising his dagger.

But just as he raised his hand, Lu Zheng’s left hand was already there.

Grasp! Bend! Pull! Twist!

He directly pulled the dagger from Old Fourth’s hand behind his own back.

The long saber slashed.

"Ah!"

Lu Zheng shifted, twisted, and turned aside, ending up behind Old Fourth.

Old First and Old Third stopped abruptly, only to see Lu Zheng slash Old Fourth’s foot with his long saber and twist his arm with his left hand.

"Crack!"

"Ah!"

Old Fourth screamed in agony, then Lu Zheng casually tossed him aside.

"Expert fighter!"

"Lu Lang?"

At that moment, Elder Liu and the Liu Family Sisters appeared at the side door connecting the front and back courtyards.

"Hmm?"

Old First’s eyes lit up, and he turned to run toward them.

Old Second moved to block Lu Zheng, not to attack, but to protect and delay.

"Ah!" Liu Qingquan shrieked and hid behind her sister.

Elder Liu held a stick, expressionless, blocking in front of his family, while Liu Qingyan watched Old First intently.

"Looking for death!"

Lu Zheng leaped forward, his blood energy surging, and his long saber shone brilliantly.

"Martial Artist!" Old Second exclaimed, instinctively stepping aside.

But the long saber flashed past, still leaving a gash on his shoulder, and blood spurted out.

Old Second shouted in pain, combined with the sharp aura coming from behind, Old First felt his scalp tingle, his body cold, and rolled to the side hastily.

The long saber swung through the air, and when Old First got up again, he saw Lu Zheng already blocking his way.

As for Old Second, he was busy stopping his own bleeding.

In just a brief exchange, all three of his brothers were seriously injured.

Screwed!

Lu Zheng poised his long saber, stepping forward.

"Wait!" Old First retreated urgently, shouting as he did, "We concede, please show mercy!"

Lu Zheng chuckled, "Are you joking with me? Show mercy? If you want to plead, go to the County Government Office and speak with Chief Liu."

Old First hurriedly replied, "We are from the Golden Extinction Hall in Yaozhou. If you send us to the authorities, you’ll make enemies with our hall!"

Lu Zheng’s eyes narrowed. Someone from a powerful force?

However, his feet didn’t stop as he casually said, "How powerful a force can you be to defy the Court?"

What a hat to put on!

Old First retreated desperately, "We dare not defy the Court, but aren’t you afraid of the Golden Extinction Hall’s revenge?"

Lu Zheng paused briefly, "Do you think I’m stupid? The grudge is already set!"

Old First quickly said, "You are a Martial Artist, we are just small-time tomb raiders. If we can return safely, we won’t dare to bother you again!"

"Golden Extinction Hall of Yaozhou..." Lu Zheng turned to Elder Liu, "Uncle Liu, have you heard of this hall?"

Didn’t Elder Liu’s family just move from Wanfu County in Yaozhou? Maybe he has heard?

Elder Liu indeed knew, and said, "I’ve heard, a small hall involved in shady dealings, rumored to have cultivators inside."

"Our hall has three masters: one can suppress demons, one has Martial Dao blood qi like a furnace, and another is skilled in exotic techniques!" Old First quickly added.

Lu Zheng’s eyes flickered.

Old First quickly bowed, "Please, think about it. We are just insignificant tomb raiders. We concede, and this matter will remain between us. My hall master wouldn’t involve the entire hall against you!

But if you turn us over to the authorities, the Golden Extinction Hall would lose face and would have to retaliate; don’t you think that’s the truth?"

Throughout history, tomb raiding has always been a serious crime, because everyone dies, especially those in power who fear having their graves disturbed after death.

Furthermore, the three injured couldn’t help but suppress their groans, breathing quietly, fearing they might irritate Lu Zheng further to send them to the authorities.

Though Lu Zheng was formidable, he hadn’t killed them, indicating he hadn’t killed before, giving them hope.

Lu Zheng turned back, and seeing this, Elder Liu thought for a moment and said, "The Golden Extinction Hall has a bad reputation, but you, Lu Lang, having entered the Martial Dao, they might not dare to seek revenge at all."

The four of them wore changed expressions.

However, Lu Zheng continued contemplating, his eyes showing a tinge of tranquility, and after a moment, he lowered his long saber and said, "Enough, just leave. But if there’s a next time, you won’t return safely!"

Liu Qingyan hesitated to speak but was stopped by Elder Liu.

Old First was overjoyed, "Thank you, Young Master! We will never set foot in Tonglin County, no, not even in Yizhou again!"

Under Lu Zheng and the others’ watchful eyes, Old First and Old Second helped Old Third and Old Fourth, and they staggered away together.

...

Lu Zheng turned back, smiling, "It’s alright now."

Elder Liu and his wife quickly came forward to thank him, "Thank you, Lu Lang; without you, we would have been doomed tonight!"

Liu Qingyan also gave a graceful bow, her bright eyes shimmering, "I never expected Lu Lang to cultivate Martial Dao blood qi so quickly."

"Brother Lu, you’re amazing! Can you protect us always?" Liu Qingquan jumped to Lu Zheng’s side, tugging at his sleeve.

"Of course!" Lu Zheng patted Liu Qingquan’s little head.

Lu Zheng waved to everyone, "Alright, it’s late, everyone should rest."

He had climbed the wall when he arrived, but leaving, it wouldn’t be appropriate to climb back over, so Lu Zheng left through the front gate.

"Father," Liu Qingyan frowned, "those people had sinister looks, only relieved, not grateful. Lu Lang spared them, but I fear they..."

Elder Liu chuckled, "You think Lu Lang is usually indecisive?"

"Ah?" Liu Qingyan was taken aback.

"Yan’er, you’re still young. Lu Lang is kind-hearted but not to the point of being naïve or cowardly."

"Could it be..."

Elder Liu laughed, "I won’t spell it out. Lu Lang doesn’t want to involve us or scare us. He’s a good lad."

Hearing this, Liu Qingyan’s beautiful eyes sparkled, her lips faintly curving into a smile.
