342: Chapter 342 Head-to-Head

Jiang Cheng showed no fear and mocked,

"You idiot, I said your brain is full of water."

"Can you even represent Qingyu Academy?"

"So a grudge has been formed? Who do you think you are? You don't know what's good for you. If you've got the guts, why don't we take this outside?"

Beside him, Xiao Weiqing waved his hand to block the flying wood chips. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he couldn't help but laugh.

Indeed.

Jiang Cheng was truly a Martial Cultivator, and an Eighth Realm one at that. He should be exactly like this, not indulging them.

"You!~"

Wang Yihui glared with anger but didn't dare to accept the challenge.

Before coming, they had studied the current leadership of Luo Jiang Academy; there were detailed records on every expert.

Jiang Cheng was no exception, of course. Wang Yihui knew he was no match for Jiang Cheng.

"Yihui, sit down."

Wang Lu, who hadn't spoken until now, said.

Hearing this, Wang Yihui immediately calmed down.

"Yes, Father."

Then,

Wang Lu spoke again,

"My grandson, Wang Feng, has the potential for the Ninth Realm!"

"Huh?"

Xiao Weiqing was stunned for a moment, his Face full of question marks.

The three from the Wang Family looked at Xiao Weiqing with unfriendly eyes. Even Xie Zhiyuan and Jiang Cheng glanced at Xiao Weiqing in surprise.

Wang Lu was not like Wang Yihui; he was an expert with long-established Eighth Realm Peak strength. The respect he deserved still had to be given.

"Oh, sorry. Please continue."

Xiao Weiqing said. He had indeed been shocked by that 'potential for the Ninth Realm' line.

Wang Lu remained expressionless and continued,

"In my Wang Family, those with Level 6 Extraordinary Talent will eventually become Eighth Realm Experts and pillars of the Family's prosperity. Now that Wang Feng has lost a hand, it's as if the Wang Family has lost an Eighth Realm Expert."

"How do you think this should be settled?"

"One Li Wei and one hundred thousand units of divine charm treasures. This request isn't excessive; consider it the Wang Family giving Face to Luo Jiang Academy."

"Wang Lu, you're quite the accountant," Jiang Cheng mocked.

Wang Lu didn't intend to bicker. He stared coldly at Jiang Cheng and said, "What? You want to take this outside with me?"

Jiang Cheng didn't respond. As a Martial Cultivator, being a bit reckless was fine, but he couldn't be stupid. He was no match for Wang Lu.

At this moment,

Xiao Weiqing, who was still planning to watch the show, suddenly felt a gaze. It was Xie Zhiyuan.

Xiao Weiqing knew he couldn't keep watching.

"Enough. Stop mentioning the Wang Family in every breath. Let's talk about the matter at hand. Your Wang Family's reputation won't work here."

"Do you think you're the Dongfang Family?"

"What did you say?!"

Wang Lu was angry. His eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a dangerous Aura.

If Wang Lu could ignore the previous confrontations and conflicts, he couldn't ignore this.

To the outside world,

The Dongfang Family was widely recognized as the number one Family in Great Xia, and even on Planet Blue.

No one paid attention to the Wang Family. Even though the Wang Family currently had more Eighth Realm Experts on the surface than the Dongfang Family, the world still only knew the Dongfang Family and not his Wang Family.

It was simply because the surname 'Wang' was too common.

For example, the Pingsha Wang Family.

The Jianzhang Wang Family.

The Qingyu Wang Family. For years, they had wanted to remove the word 'Qingyu' so that when anyone mentioned the Wang Family, theirs would be the only one that came to mind.

"Don't glare at me. You've been glaring since you walked in. I saw a woman and an old man, both vulnerable groups, so I was being lenient and didn't hold it against you. But don't think I'm a pushover."

"As for you..." Xiao Weiqing looked at Wang Yihui. "Never mind, you're a Martial Cultivator. I won't hold it against you."

Jiang Cheng: "..."

For some reason, although he knew Xiao Weiqing wasn't talking about him, Jiang Cheng felt offended.

"What kind of look is that?"

Wang Yihui was angry again.

Xiao Weiqing couldn't be bothered with Wang Yihui.

He tapped a few times on his Wristband.

Immediately,

A video was projected.

There were three people in the footage.

They were Li Wei, Zhang Xing, and Wang Feng.

However, Wang Feng was locked in a room that looked like a cell. At this moment, Wang Feng looked miserable, his head swollen like a pig's head, clearly having been beaten.

Li Wei and Zhang Xing were outside the room, looking at Wang Feng through the window bars.

Li Wei said, "Zhang Xing, how is it? I told you I'd get revenge for you. I didn't lie, did I?"

"Look, it's the right hand for both, and even the length of the break is about the same."

"Is it?"

"But looking at it, his severed arm seems a bit shorter than mine," Zhang Xing said, rubbing his chin with one hand.

Li Wei leaned in to look closely. "It seems so. Then you've come out ahead."

"It's alright."

Zhang Xing nodded. Thinking about it this way, it wasn't a loss.

Hearing this, Wang Feng punched the iron bars. "Just you wait. Once I get out, I'll make you wish you were dead."

"Oh, still quite spirited. But what delusion makes you think you can get out?" Li Wei mocked.

"Because I am from the Qingyu Wang Family."

"My grandfather is an Eighth Realm Expert, my fourth grandfather is also an Eighth Realm Expert, and my seventh grandfather is also an Eighth Realm Expert."

"You just wait to die."

"So what if I colluded with Ding Lang of the Heavenly Wolf Empire?"

"Even if I collude with the Yao Race, no one would dare to do anything to me!"

"When my Wang Family people arrive, I'll make you cry and beg me to leave. Zhang Xing, don't worry, your other arm will also be cut off and made into a specimen. Just you wait."

Wang Feng had completely fallen into a frenzy.

The video stopped abruptly there.

"Bastard!"

*Bang~*

The beautiful woman, Xu Man, slapped the remaining half of the conference table into powder.

"Is this what you meant by not being mistreated?"

Xiao Weiqing waved his hand to block the flying wood chips and smiled. "That's right, he wasn't mistreated. He was just beaten a few times. A young man's body recovers very quickly."

"What did you say?!!"

Xu Man's body erupted with energy as she prepared to strike. Seeing her son so miserable, she could no longer restrain her rage.

"Xu Man, sit down."

"Fourth Uncle."

"I told you to sit down."

Wang Lu glanced at Xu Man.

Xu Man clenched her fists, but in the end, she did not disobey Wang Lu's command.

"Xiao Weiqing, Dean Xiao, right?"

"Elder Wang, what can I do for you?"

"What do you want?"

Xiao Weiqing crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back in his chair.

"Elder Wang is truly interesting. You all started glaring at me as soon as you arrived, and this auntie was even ready to hit me, yet now you're asking me what I want?"

Hearing this, Xu Man almost exploded again. As an Eighth Realm Expert, she was barely forty and looked like a young girl in her twenties. How could she be called an auntie?

Wang Lu said, "Stop beating around the bush. Speak plainly."

If it hadn't been for that video just now, Wang Lu could have easily taken Wang Feng away and even received compensation, or at the very least, an apology from Luo Jiang Academy.

But,

Now that Wang Feng himself admitted to colluding with Ding Lang of the Heavenly Wolf Empire, things were different.

The key was that Wang Feng had also said something treasonous—colluding with the Yao Race.

On Planet Blue, the only ones who colluded with the Yao Race were the Demon God Cult.

Although it was just spoken in anger and shouldn't be taken seriously, given the Wang Family's status, it was something that could not be said.

If an ordinary person said it, it would just be talk because they lacked the ability. The Wang Family couldn't say it because they actually had that capability.

The Wang Family was currently in a sensitive period; Great Xia did not trust them.

The Wang Family also knew that Great Xia didn't trust them.

Great Xia also knew that the Wang Family knew Great Xia didn't trust them.

Both sides were essentially playing with their cards on the table.

However,

It was the same old saying: some things can be done, but they cannot be admitted.

Xiao Weiqing said, "It's simple. Go back to where you came from."

Wang Lu shook his head. "I'm taking Wang Feng with me."

"No. Wang Feng has violated the laws of Great Xia. He can't leave. I will hand him over to the Luo Jiang Prefecture."

Wang Lu remained expressionless, mocking inwardly. Martial artists use their prowess to break prohibitions, let alone in this extraordinary era where everyone has dozens or even a hundred lives on their hands.

"Today, I am definitely taking Wang Feng. Let's see who dares to stop me."

Wang Lu's Aura shifted; he was no longer prepared to waste time.

"Is that so?"

"Then let me tell you, I am definitely keeping Wang Feng."
