Chapter 47: One Man's Story: Fighting Two Ten Elders Alone
Lu Ci sneered, "You know me well, kid. If anyone dared to speak to me like that, I would have torn them to pieces long ago. Old Wang, you're not in the right here."
Wang Ai sneered in return: "Not in the right? Hmph, you little bastard, you're quite impolite. It's your honor that my precious great-grandson took a liking to your technique. You didn't hand it over, fine, but you even dared to hurt my precious great-grandson. That means you're not in the right, and you deserve to be beaten."
Wang Ai didn't take Luke, this young upstart, seriously. So what if Luke was of the bloodline of the Lu and Zhuge families?
As everyone knows, Wang Ai and Lu Jin have never gotten along. The Zhuge family has long since declined, so how can they compare to the Wang family?
Besides, what does it matter if someone with a different surname who doesn't know Qimen Dunjia or Shenji is of the Zhuge family bloodline? He simply doesn't believe that the Zhuge family would oppose him because of someone with a different surname.
Once we get this kid under control, won't we be able to make all the other things our own?
Zhang Chulan was truly shocked this time, his mouth agape. He had now witnessed firsthand what utterly unreasonable behavior meant—someone could make something out of nothing!
Luke spread his hands and said, "What a pity, that little bastard Wang Bing can't beat me, and you old bastard are no better."
Question: Why is Luke so arrogant?
Answer: Because even if that old bastard Wang Ai and that old scoundrel Lü Ci teamed up, they still couldn't beat him.
Having merged with himself from three worlds, Luke would merge with the three of them again in the misty space after each successful cultivation. At this time, Luke's life cultivation was at least ninety years old, and with his physical strength, even the tiger-like creature probably wouldn't last more than a hundred moves against him. In the entire world of superhumans, Luke felt that only the Old Master himself couldn't beat him. As for the rest, he didn't even consider them worthy of his attention.
He looks arrogant and haughty, but that's the truth.
Moreover, Luke only has his father, who is quite strong and rarely seen. At this moment, Luke is practically all alone, so he's not afraid that Wang Ai, that old man, will threaten him with the people around him.
"Old Lu, look at these young people nowadays, they don't take us seriously at all!"
Wang Ai's face was gloomy, but she showed no outward anger.
Wang Ai is over a hundred years old. It's hard to say what his strength will be like in the future, but his shrewdness is top-notch.
The Wang family has committed many crimes, yet they have remained standing and even grown stronger over time. Wang Ai, the head of the family, deserves much of the credit for this.
Lu Ci and Wang Ai have known each other for almost a hundred years. They know each other well, so how could Lu Ci not see what Wang Ai was thinking?
"Hmph, this is your trouble, not mine. It's none of my business. Solve it yourself."
Wang Ai snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, are you getting old and senile? Can't you see the current situation? This kid is obviously coming for me, but how do you know he's not coming for Zhang Chulan? Otherwise, would he dare to target the Ten Elders over such a small matter? Maybe he's after the Qi Source Flow."
Wang Ai wasn't saying this to encourage Lü Ci to take action; he genuinely believed it. After all, in his view, what his beloved great-grandson had done was nothing more than a trivial matter, not worth making a big fuss about. Luke, however, was making a mountain out of a molehill, which meant he definitely had ulterior motives, most likely for the Qi Source Flow.
Lu Ci's thought process was similar, and he actually agreed with Wang Ai's words, nodding and saying.
"Looks like a greedy kid. He needs to be taught a lesson."
The world of supernatural beings generally acknowledges that Wang Ai and Lü Ci are birds of a feather, not only because the heads of their two families are childhood friends, but more importantly because they form an alliance of interests.
Luke shook his head, sighed, and said, "Sigh, is it because you're getting old that you can't understand what people are saying anymore? Your imaginations are too wild. Do you think everyone is like you, interested in the so-called Eight Extraordinary Techniques? You already have one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques in your family, and you're still thinking about others. You're insatiable."
Wang Ai narrowed her eyes slightly, catching a crucial piece of information from Luke's words, and subconsciously turned to look at Lü Ci.
Coincidentally, at the same time, Lü Ci also looked at him.
However, the two of them turned back at the same time and looked at Luke.
Lu Ci sneered, "Kid, you're still a bit lacking in your ability to sow discord."
Wang Ai sneered in return, "Since you dare to come, you're not leaving. Wait until my precious great-grandson wakes up, then you can personally kowtow to him and apologize!"
Whether or not Wang Ai (Lu Ci) possesses the Eight Extraordinary Skills, it is not something to mention at this time. There will be plenty of time later; he can't escape it.
"Why waste so much time on nonsense? Just take it."
Unlike Wang Ai, who was a cunning old fox, Lü Ci was a ruthless person. He made his move without any warning. With a light stomp of his foot, a purple force rose from the ground and attacked Luke. It was the Lü family's unique skill, Ruyi Jin.
Since the invention of the Soul-Enlightening Technique, the Ruyi Force seems to have been underestimated.
However, the Ruyi Jin has a wide range of playability and development potential, after all, it is the foundation upon which the Lü family stands as one of the four families.
Ruyi Jin is a superpower, not a martial art like the Splitting Palm. In the world of Under One Person, most martial arts that exist in reality also exist in this world, such as Wudang's Tai Chi, Zhuge Qing's Bajiquan, and Wang Zhenqiu's Tongbei Vajra, etc. However, these can only be considered martial arts, or certain striking techniques, and cannot be considered superpowers. The definition of a superpower should be a special ability, which is composed of Qi.
The Lu family's Ruyi Jin is a special ability, not a martial art that everyone can learn. The ability of Ruyi Jin is similar to hitting a cow through a mountain, which can strike the enemy from all directions. Simply put, you can manipulate a force that can strike the enemy from any angle under your control. The strength, speed, and quantity depend entirely on the practitioner. The stronger the practitioner, the stronger and faster the Ruyi Jin will be.
Among the surviving members of the Lü family, Lü Ci's Ruyi Jin skill is second to none.
However, Luke simply waved his hand, blocking the force that surged from the ground, and even grasped the purple force in his palm, throwing it back like a baseball.
The purple energy drew a strange arc in the air, and then struck back towards Lü Ci.
Lu Ci was shocked, not expecting the young man's strength to be so terrifying. He quickly dodged to the side, while secretly gathering his strength to prepare to launch another attack.
Seeing this, Wang Ai no longer stood idly by. He quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations. A chilling aura surged towards Luke from all directions, conjuring countless ghostly figures in the air.
Chapter 48: One Person's Story: One Punch and One Kick Subdues Ten Elders
Luke snorted coldly, his figure flashed, leaving an afterimage in his place, easily dodging Wang Ai's attack.
After achieving nothing, Wang Ai withdrew those ghostly figures and stared at Luke with a cold gaze.
Wang Ai was naturally skilled in spirit binding and commanding, and quite proficient at it. However, he was very cautious and always had some doubts about Feng Tianyang's words. He only bound spirits, but never used them to subdue spirits. After all, there was no sorcerer in the Wang family, and the essence of spirit binding and commanding was witchcraft. It was always better to be cautious.
However, many members of the Wang family worship spirits, including his beloved great-grandson Wang Bing. This suggests that Wang Ai may not have truly loved his grandson; perhaps it was simply a family tradition, or perhaps he had other plans.
"Hmph, is that all you've got?" Luke scoffed.
Wang Ai and Lü Ci exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock and solemnity in each other's eyes.
They never expected that this seemingly young and inexperienced boy would possess such formidable strength.
After all, older people always look down on younger people, especially in the world of supernatural beings where the older one gets, the deeper one's life cultivation becomes, and the stronger one's combat power becomes. Older age is a sign of stronger combat power.
Even if Han Hucai and Luke had defeated Wang Ai with a single palm strike, the two of them would only have assumed that Wang Ai had been careless, rather than that Luke was too strong.
"Boy, who exactly is your master?" Lü Ci asked in a deep voice.
"Oh? What, trying to get on my good side?" Luke's lips curled into a playful smile. "Too bad, you're not qualified to know who my master is."
"Hurry up and use your full strength, don't say I'm bullying an old man."
Luke took off his shirt, revealing his muscular physique and eight-pack abs. He folded the shirt and placed it on Zhang Chulan, who was standing next to him.
"I didn't want to get involved, but that little bastard Wang Bing messed with me, so I'll just help you out this time. Here, take your clothes."
Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward with both hands to take the clothes, saying with a grin.
"Brother Lu, don't worry, I'm on your side. Wang Bing has gone too far. He's causing trouble for someone as kind as you. You can imagine how many heinous things he's done. Don't worry, I know a lot of the company's leaders. I'll tell them when we get out that this guy must be thoroughly investigated."
In reality, the highest-ranking company executive Zhang Chulan had ever contacted was Xu Xiang, who had only recently died. But that didn't stop him from using Xu Xiang's name to intimidate others. Otherwise, what if one of these three big shots accidentally hit him while they were fighting?
He couldn't beat any of the three people in front of him, and he didn't trust any of them, but if he had to choose a side, he would choose Luke.
Why did those two old men look like bad people, and they even threatened me just now?
Before Wang Ai and Lü Ci could react, Luke had already taken to the air and thrown a punch. His primary target was Wang Ai, that annoying old hag. His iron fist was like a giant hammer, unstoppable. The whole room trembled as the punch landed.
The air seemed to be torn apart by the punch, emitting a sharp whistling sound.
Wang Ai was shocked and hastily used the Spirit Binding Technique to summon a powerful spirit to block the attack.
However, Luke's punch was too swift; before his spirit could take shape, it was shattered by the force.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, Wang Ai was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Upon seeing this, Lu Ci's eyes flashed with shock. He had not expected Luke to be so powerful.
However, he was no ordinary person. He quickly adjusted his mindset, unleashed his Ruyi Jin, and his purple energy was about to burst forth as he prepared to use his ultimate technique to deal with Luke's attack.
Luke didn't give him that chance. He flashed again, appearing in front of Lü Ci like a ghost, and kicked out with a sound like thunder and lightning, striking Lü Ci's chest.
Lu Ci hastily responded, but was kicked back several steps, his face as pale as paper.
"He's quite old, but not very capable."
Luke said coldly, his tone full of disdain and sarcasm.
Zhang Chulan was dumbfounded. He almost dropped Luke's clothes, but luckily he reacted in time and caught them in a flurry.
The difference between people can sometimes be greater than the difference between people and dogs.
He acted subserviently and humbled himself in front of the two old men.
However, Luke only needed one punch and one kick to drive the two old men away.
Although the two old men underestimated Luke, his formidable fighting prowess cannot be ignored.
Even if an elephant underestimates its prey, an ant could never harm it.
Lu Ci's face was gloomy. He calmed his blood and said in a deep voice.
"Old Wang, we underestimated the younger generation, and the younger generation underestimated us in return. If we don't go all out, we're afraid we'll ruin our reputation for life."
Wang Ai wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, took out a scroll from behind him, and his face was even more gloomy than Lü Ci's.
"It's not a method we use ourselves, so it just doesn't feel right. We actually got the better of a junior."
Although Wang Ai knew how to use the Spirit Binding and Commanding Technique, he was afraid of Feng Tianyang digging traps, so he didn't practice it deeply. Moreover, a person's energy is limited, and he focused more on his own methods.
The Wang family's secret technique is called "Divine Coating"!
The Wang family's "Divine Painter" is, as the name suggests, a painter, but their paintings can come to life. Under the influence of special Qi, using paintings made by the Divine Painter to fight enemies is a very effective method.
However, if this technique were to be created on the spot, the preparation time would be too long. Therefore, the Wang family's Divine Painting technique involves painting in advance. It is said that the Wang family's treasure is called the Mountain and River Map, which contains the landscape itself and can capture people within the painting, preventing them from escaping. However, it is unknown whether this is true or not.
Wang Ai unfurled the scroll, revealing a lifelike tiger that seemed poised to leap out at any moment and devour its prey.
No, not at any time, but already out of the picture.
The tiger roared so fiercely that it shook the entire house, but fortunately, the people inside all possessed cultivation and were not injured.
However, Zhang Chulan felt dizzy and almost fell headfirst; the tiger's roar had already made his blood boil.
Clearly, this roar is this tiger's special skill; otherwise, even if ten ordinary tigers came, they would all be the kind of animals that Luke could kill with a single punch.
The tiger, radiating energy and with a fierce glint in its eyes, pounced straight at Luke.
Luke remained calm and easily dodged the tiger's pounce by sidestepping.
