Chapter 706
Hearing this, Han Changkong and Lu Jie were suddenly paralyzed, their hearts filled with worry and helplessness.
Han Changkong frowned and asked:
"Are they targeting even my vassal forces? Is there any law in this?"
"There's no law among cultivators. It's always been the law of the jungle, with the strong prevailing. Besides, the Lu family has become your vassal, so Zhou Chen shouldn't attack you easily. But the key is, with your current strength, can you stop him?"
Xu Hai frowned and said worriedly.
Hearing this, Han Changkong's face instantly showed disdain, and he snorted in his heart:
Attack me?
Humph, I really hope he attacks me. If he really dares to provoke me, I will kill him.
However, he still said politely:
"Elder, please rest assured. Just stay out of this matter. I have my own way to handle the rest."
After hearing this, Xu Hai nodded and said:
"Changkong, I really didn't have any reason to refuse the mission assigned by my superiors before, but now as your protector, my most important job is to protect your safety. This is an order issued by the sect leader himself, so you can rest assured that I will definitely not interfere in this matter."
Lu Jie listened to the conversation between the two, her brows furrowed tightly into the shape of a "川" character, her heart filled with worry and uneasiness.
She knew very well how powerful the force behind Zhou Chen was. With Han Changkong's current strength, if he really faced him, he would probably be in great danger.
Seeing this, Han Changkong hurriedly comforted him:
"Friend Lu, just relax. I, Han Changkong, am here. Even if he's a core disciple, what can he do? He'll have to behave himself and not act recklessly."
Lu Jie really had no other choice at this moment, so she could only nod helplessly, thinking to herself that she could only take it one step at a time.
If it really doesn't work, even if I can't win, I can still run away to other places to avoid the limelight temporarily. At worst, I can join a big sect and rely on my cultivation as a God King to become an elder, so I won't be desperate.
But the problem is, the Lu family has so many children, and that is the family business that their father has worked hard to build. How could she give up so easily?
If you really can't keep it when the time comes, you'll have to find another way.
Han Changkong seemed to see through Lu Jie's thoughts and continued to speak:
"Elder, let's go to Lujia City first so we can make some preparations in advance, just in case."
Xu Hai pondered in his heart and felt that what Han Changkong said made some sense.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, given the current situation, Han Changkong and he will not be in any great danger for the time being.
After all, if Zhou Chen really dared to act rashly against the two of them, apart from anything else, just because of his identity as the Grand Elder of the Inner Sect of the Li Ren Sect, he would have to weigh the consequences and would never act without scruples.
Besides, Han Changkong is now a core disciple and holds an extraordinary status in the sect. If anything happens to him, Zhou Chen will be committing the taboo of infighting among fellow disciples, which is a capital crime. He would never dare to cross this red line lightly.
Thinking of this, Xu Hai nodded slightly and said:
"That's as it should be. Let's set off now and go to Lujia City to check out the situation before making a decision."
Then, the three of them did not delay any longer and immediately prepared to set off for Lujia City.
According to Han Changkong's current flying speed, it will take quite a while to reach Lujia City, at least ten days.
However, Lu Jie is a powerful person at the level of God King, so she naturally has many powerful treasures in her hands.
She just waved her jade hand and took out her flying magic weapon directly from the storage ring. As soon as the magic weapon appeared, it emitted a dazzling light and a powerful aura wave spread out.
