The Liu Family
Liu Yizhen and Tuoba Chong fled the Martial Arts Stage. Worried that Lu Zhaojin might pursue them, they sped all the way back to the inn where White Cloud Villa was staying.
Liu Ming, White Cloud Villa's First Elder, saw that Liu Yizhen's Dao Heart had been damaged and flew into a towering rage. He demanded to know who had done this and dispatched disciples to find the culprit.
He was determined to grind that person's bones to dust and scatter the ashes.
Liu Yizhen possessed exceptional talent. At barely twenty, he had already reached the Early Sixth Rank and comprehended Ice Sword Intent. Liu An, the current villa lord and Liu Yizhen's father, had only comprehended Sword Intent and broken through to the Sixth-Rank Realm in his thirties.
Compared to him, Liu Yizhen was the very model of the blue surpassing the indigo at White Cloud Villa, and had been designated the heir to become the next villa lord.
White Cloud Villa's upper ranks had believed that, with Liu Yizhen leading the villa in the future, they would surely squeeze into the ranks of the top powers.
But now, Liu Yizhen's Dao Heart was damaged and the foundation of his cultivation had developed problems. Whether he could break through to the Fifth Rank Realm in the future was now uncertain. It was as though White Cloud Villa's broad road to prosperity had been cut off.
How could Liu Ming not be furious?
Liu Yizhen had not wanted to speak of what had happened at the Martial Arts Stage. After all, he had been the one to provoke Lu Zhaojin first, and being beaten into such a state in the end was entirely the fruit of his own actions.
However, Tuoba Chong was quick with his mouth.
