The old man was already furious beyond measure!
Liu Ruyan and Jiang Yuanshu both grew tense.
If Lu Chengwen lost, Two-Faced Blade would likely be free to control the entire situation.
Liu Ruyan had already prepared for the worst!
Lu Chengwen said, "Senior, haven't you considered this? Your son has been out in the world for so many years. Couldn't he have had some fortuitous encounters!?"
The old man's imposing aura instantly collapsed, and he calmed down.
Two-Faced Blade saw this and thought, What the fuck... can you stay focused for once!?
Hit him! You can talk after you hit him!
He hurriedly said, "Senior, don't listen to his nonsense! Cripple him first!"

The old man froze for a few seconds, then smiled and dragged over a stone stool. "Little brother, sit. Sit!"
Two-Faced Blade said, "Senior, don't believe him. He's Hun Tiangang's disciple!"
The old man waved a hand. "I have to believe him! Hun Tiangang spent his life upright and righteous, steadfast and impartial, caring for the world and compassionate at heart. And his strength surpassed all under heaven; one could say he was invincible! He would never lie, nor did he need to lie. A man like him would naturally only take disciples who were honest gentlemen incapable of uttering a single falsehood."
Even Liu Ruyan and Jiang Yuanshu were shaking their heads now.
Old man, you really got that one wrong!
Lu Chengwen nodded without the slightest
