CHAPTER 207: CHAPTER 206: TRAITOR TO THE CLAN, DEATH! (SECOND UPDATE, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)

In the sky above, Zhao Lei, full of murderous intent, said, "Lu Family brat, you’re courting death. The charge of collaborating with demon cultivation, even Old Ancestor Jin would not dare to admit it. Once she finds out you are involved in demon cultivation, she won’t protect you but instead will cut you down to clear her name."

"Now, I’ll give you a chance to open the Lu Family’s Mountain Gate and let the cultivators from our Law Enforcement Hall go inside to check if any of your Lu Family cultivators are practicing demonic techniques."

"As long as the Lu Family cultivators haven’t practiced demonic techniques, I’ll bow and apologize to you. But if any Lu Family cultivators are found to practice demonic techniques, then I will strictly enforce the law. Do you dare to open the Mountain Gate and let our Law Enforcement Hall in to inspect?"

Behind him, eighteen cultivators appeared, among them three Purple Mansion Cultivators and fifteen Foundation Establishment Cultivators, watching eagerly and awaiting the Lu Family’s response.

The crowd also turned to look at Lu Xuanji.

It seemed at this moment, opening the Mountain Gate, allowing the Law Enforcement Hall cultivators to check, to clear the Lu Family’s name, was the best choice.

But Lu Xuanji laughed, clearing the name, was not possible.

The Lu Family had over two thousand cultivators, many of whom he did not know, meeting only once during annual gatherings, without even remembering their names.

He couldn’t guarantee that over two thousand Lu Family cultivators were all morally upright and outstanding in character. It stood to reason that some might have done bad things and practiced demonic techniques... Since the Law Enforcement Hall was so certain, they must have evidence confirming that Lu Family had cultivators practicing demonic techniques.

If he let the Law Enforcement Hall cultivators come in for an inspection, there would definitely be problems found, at which point the Lu Family would indeed be collaborating with demon cultivation.

Moreover, in a certain sense, the Law Enforcement Hall wasn’t wrong to accuse anyone.

The Pleasure Demon was a great demon cultivator, and the cultivation technique he left behind, "Yin Yang Transformation," was essentially a demonic technique.

Lu Xuanji had practiced "Yin Yang Transformation," which, in essence, meant he was practicing a demonic technique... On this point, the Law Enforcement Hall’s incorrect reasoning led to the correct conclusion.

"Haha, could it be that the Lu Family clan leader is also feeling guilty and has practiced demonic techniques?" Zhao Lei said with evil qi rising.

"I, Lu Xuanji, have acted throughout my life, and I have no need to explain myself to you!"

Lu Xuanji said, "I suspect you are a demon cultivator... No, it should be that some demon cultivator has used a disguise technique, pretending to be a Law Enforcement Hall Elder, trying to sneak into my Lu Family to then start a massacre. Speak, who exactly are you?"

"Where is Elder Zhao?"

"Back in the day, I drank with Elder Zhao, went to brothels together, hunted demon beasts together, our relationship was as close as brothers. When he sees me, he would definitely call me brother... But you, upon seeing me, look at me with disdain, purely looking down at me. And you slander my Lu Family for collaborating with demon cultivation!"

"That Big Brother Zhao wasn’t like this. Speak, who exactly are you, and why are you disguising as my Big Brother Zhao!"

"Tell me, what did you do to my Big Brother Zhao? Did you cruelly murder him... Big Brother Zhao, if you are unfortunately harmed, your wife and daughter, I shall take care of them..."

As he began to say this, Lu Xuanji blushed, but as he continued, he became more articulate and convincing, as if he truly were as close to Elder Zhao as brothers.

It seemed as though this Elder Zhao was indeed a fake, a disguise by a demon cultivator.

Zhao Lei listened, his nose almost crooked with anger.

Lying with eyes wide open without blushing, how can a person be so shameless?

Brothers for life, drinking together, I wasn’t aware of this.

Lying to a True Master, turning him into a fake, what kind of shamelessness is this?

Even the surrounding Law Enforcement Hall cultivators, watching him, began to suspect, perhaps he really was a demon cultivator in disguise.

Raging inside, he wanted to explain, but this couldn’t be explained; the more he explained, the more suspicious it became. He took out a token with the words "Law Enforcement" on it: "Lu Xuanji practices demonic techniques, a crime deserving of death, but the Lu Family is innocent. Now, I offer you a chance, open the Mountain Gate, lay down your weapons, only kill Lu Xuanji, the rest of the Lu Family can all be pardoned!"

The voice rolled down, entering the Lu Family Mountain Gate, the numerous cultivators within all heard it.

The determination to fight to the death had faded significantly.

Many Lu Family cultivators looked at this clan leader with longing in their eyes.

"Clan Leader, if you practice demonic techniques, you should not implicate the Lu Family!"

"Clan Leader, for the sake of the Lu Family, it’s time for you to sacrifice yourself. Sacrificing one to save the Lu Family, dying with purpose!"

"Clan Leader, don’t be too selfish!"

"Clan Leader, you should invite the Law Enforcement Hall inside, the truth can be clarified swiftly!"

At this moment, numerous Lu Family cultivators spoke up, offering their advice.

There is great terror facing life and death, and in the face of death, many people’s intelligence continuously declines, falling below even that of a pig.

Lu Xuanji didn’t argue or acknowledge, instead, he looked towards the Grand Elder, seemingly asking what the Grand Elder thought they should do?

This was also Lu Xuanji’s habit, when undecided, ask the Grand Elder.

But the Grand Elder felt a jolt in his heart, sensing things were about to go wrong, knowing someone was naive but not a fool; someone was good to the clan but not a punching bag for everyone else.

Thinking the tiger is not fierce, treating him as a kitten that only meows.

It seems over the years, some cultivators have gotten too comfortable, losing their reverence, losing reverence leads to declining intelligence... Fine, let this old relic take action and correct some mistakes!

"Silence!"

The Grand Elder said, "Traitors to the clan, death!"

The Grand Elder drew a treasure sword, the sword light flashing, cutting down a clamoring cultivator in one strike;

Another cut down a clamoring cultivator.

One sword for each, never a second strike.

"You cannot kill me, I call you my grandfather!"

"You cannot kill me, my father fought in a blood battle for the clan!"

"Father, you cannot kill me, I am your son!"

"Husband, you cannot kill me, I am your Little Xianglan!"

Some Lu Family cultivators screamed, shouting reasons.

But the Grand Elder’s expression didn’t change, striking without mercy, killing as he says, ignoring the babbling excuses.

Achievements mean nothing, still killed.

Relatives mean nothing, already five generations apart, you remember me, I don’t remember you.

What of a son, one son was precious, now there are hundreds, sons aren’t valuable;

What of a concubine, dozens of concubines, one more, one less makes no difference.

Kill, kill, kill!

One by one bodies fell, one by one blood flowed, corpses soon piled on the ground continuously.

Many Lu Family cultivators were dumbfounded, full of fear.

They looked at the Grand Elder with fear, even more terrified of the clan leader.

This clan leader looked at it all coldly, as if watching a group of ants perish.

With death approaching, intelligence began to rise again in some, reaching above average, yet it was too late.
