First Senior Sister Is Coming Back!

Outside the Bai Family residence.

Commander Chen and Alliance Leader Yun stood atop a rooftop, watching the Bai Family leave Cloud City for Demon Slaying City.

"I wonder where that kid named Lu Sheng came from. He actually caught the attention of some big shot in Demon Slaying City!"

Alliance Leader Yun rubbed his slightly plump belly, watching the Bai Family with a beaming smile.

"Tut, tut, tut. When I heard the higher-ups calling me just now, I nearly thought I was in for it!"

Commander Chen stood beside him with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression as solemn as ever.

Only after the Bai Family had left Cloud City and vanished from his sight did he speak in that icy voice.

"The Martial Arts Families have truly become somewhat disobedient lately. If Great Xia did not desperately need them to help resist the Demons right now, then..."

A sharp gleam flashed through Commander Chen's eyes.

"Perfect. We can use the Bai Family as an example—kill the chicken to frighten the monkeys. Otherwise, these Martial Arts Families will really think that just because they are local tyrants, no one would dare touch them!"

"Hmph!"

Commander Chen snorted coldly, his voice brimming with exceptionally dense Killing Intent.

"Ah, what else can we do? We can't exactly kill all those people, can we?"

Alliance Leader Yun sighed, his gaze gradually turning profound.

Commander Chen paused, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes, as though he were genuinely considering whether that plan was feasible.

Seeing Commander Chen's expression, Alliance Leader Yun's mouth twitched slightly.

"Damn it, Military people really are all born killers!"

Alliance Leader Yun cursed, then said with a headache, "Enough, enough. Leave the rest to me. Your Military can just focus on defending the city!"

With that, Alliance Leader Yun waved dismissively at Commander Chen.

Then he vanished from where he stood.

Commander Chen glanced at the Bai Family courtyard before finally disappearing into the night.

Inside the rental apartment.

Lu Sheng lay on his bed, occasionally glancing out the window.

"The Bai Family..."

Lu Sheng murmured softly, a trace of killing intent surfacing in his eyes.

He did not know whether Lan Linglong's decision to stand up for him would completely provoke the Bai Family. If the Bai Family began targeting the entire Heaven and Earth Dojo because of him...

Lu Sheng would not feel good about it.

Normally, Lu Sheng would have long since fallen asleep at this hour, but now he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Ding!

Suddenly, the phone on his bedside received a notification.

Lu Sheng picked up his phone and checked it, only to discover that it was a news alert.

Lu Sheng took one look at it, and his pupils contracted slightly as he abruptly sat upright.

"'The Bai Family of Cloud City is suspected of assassinating Great Xia martial artists. All martial artists above the Blood Qi Realm are to proceed immediately to the Alien Demon Battlefield and guard the battlefield for twenty years!'"

The news instantly filled Lu Sheng's vision.

"This..."

A shocked expression appeared on Lu Sheng's face.

Just moments ago, he had been worrying whether the Bai Family would shift their anger onto the Heaven and Earth Dojo, yet they had suddenly been investigated.

A gleam flickered in Lu Sheng's eyes.

Recalling what Lan Linglong had told him, Lu Sheng instantly connected the pieces.

"Senior Sister..."

Holding his phone, Lu Sheng could not help feeling moved.

The Bai Family had been like local tyrants in Cloud City. Even for Senior Sister to move against the Bai Family, she must have paid no small price.

With that thought, the gratitude in Lu Sheng's heart deepened.

"Looks like... I still need to become stronger!"

"Whether it is the foreign races hanging above every Great Xia human's head, or the darkness lurking in this world... only great strength can better protect oneself, and even... protect the dojo!"

Lu Sheng murmured softly, his gaze gradually becoming firm.

With no more worries weighing on him, Lu Sheng lay back down, the corners of his lips curling upward as he closed his eyes.

Before long, his breathing became even.

The next day, Lu Sheng woke early. He first went to school and completed that day's Martial Arts Class training before heading to the Heaven and Earth Dojo.

However, during Martial Arts Class, Lu Sheng discovered that Bai Mo had changed enormously from before.

If Bai Mo had once been like a proud rooster, then Bai Mo now...

Looked utterly dejected.

Still, Lu Sheng did not know whether it was merely an illusion, but while he trained, he distinctly sensed Bai Mo secretly watching him.

There even seemed to be a faint chill in Bai Mo's gaze...

Yet whenever Lu Sheng looked over, Bai Mo swiftly shifted his eyes away.

Though it was extremely subtle, Lu Sheng still noticed it.

"This guy..."

Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly. After observing Bai Mo for a while, he withdrew his gaze.

"Although I really want to kill you, we are still inside the city after all!"

Lu Sheng murmured inwardly, a flash of killing intent passing through his eyes.

"If you remain so stubbornly obsessed, then I do not mind finding an opportunity to kill you!"

Lu Sheng was not some saint. From the moment Bai Mo had sent people after him, Lu Sheng had already wanted him dead.

It was just that the following events had unfolded far too quickly, and the Bai Family had already been investigated.

As a result, the Bai Family rapidly declined within Cloud City. Only Bai Mo and a few elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people remained in the entire family.

But if this guy wanted to pull any petty tricks, Lu Sheng would not mind using some underhanded means to kill him!

A vicious look flashed across Lu Sheng's face.

After silently completing his Martial Arts Class training, Lu Sheng left the Martial Arts Training Hall without looking back.

It was as though nothing had ever happened between him and Bai Mo.

Bai Mo stood in a corner, watching Lu Sheng's figure disappear from his sight with a grim expression.

The Bai Family's rapid decline had also caused a huge uproar in Cloud City.

In just this one day, Bai Mo had already felt that many people's gazes toward him had changed.

Those lackeys who had once followed at his heels now looked at him with faint disdain. Upon seeing him, they even hurried away, as though they did not want to have anything to do with him.

Though they did not show it openly, these secret reactions still filled Bai Mo with fury.

When the Bai Family had been at its peak, they had endlessly flattered him. Now that the Bai Family had fallen, they immediately cut ties.

This filled Bai Mo's heart with rage.

"Everything... is because of that bastard Lu Sheng!"

Bai Mo could not help clenching his fists. He gritted his teeth, and his body trembled slightly from the sheer intensity of his anger.

In Bai Mo's eyes, if not for Lu Sheng, the Bai Family would not have fallen so far, and he would not have gone overnight from the Bai Family's young master and a favored son of heaven to this state.

Only one thought remained in his heart.

Revenge against Lu Sheng!

Only then could he vent the fury in his heart!

As for his grandfather and father's warnings before leaving, telling him never to think of revenge again, Bai Mo had completely cast them to the back of his mind.

After Lu Sheng's figure disappeared from Bai Mo's sight, Bai Mo's expression gradually calmed.

He silently walked up to an unused Martial Arts Puppet and began training like mad.

After leaving school, Lu Sheng arrived at the Heaven and Earth Dojo and saw Lan Linglong inside the training hall.

"Senior Sister, last night..."

Lu Sheng hesitated, wanting to speak, but Lan Linglong directly interrupted him.

Lan Linglong smiled faintly, looking as gentle as ever.

"Junior Disciple Brother, there is no need to take these matters to heart. Didn't I say it already? We are family!"

"Since we are family... naturally, we share blessings and hardships alike!"

As she spoke, Lan Linglong winked at Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng fell silent. Only after a moment did he reveal a smile.

"Mm!"

Lu Sheng nodded heavily.

"Alright, the most important thing for you now is to properly improve your strength, finish the Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, and enter a Martial Arts Academy. That is what you should be doing right now!"

"As for the dojo..."

"You still have me, your Senior Sister!"

Lan Linglong affectionately ruffled Lu Sheng's hair.

"The Martial Arts College Entrance Exam... and the Martial Arts Academy..."

Lu Sheng murmured inwardly.

"Alright, yesterday's events were only a minor interlude. Next, we will continue according to the plan we made before and hunt Fierce Beasts outside the city!"

"Once you reach the limit of Blood Qi, this stage of training will be over!"

Lan Linglong said with a smile.

Lu Sheng nodded, then began packing his things, preparing to leave the city and hunt Fierce Beasts.

"Oh, right!"

Just as Lu Sheng was about to leave the dojo, Lan Linglong seemed to remember something and called out to him.

Lu Sheng turned around and looked at Lan Linglong in confusion.

Lan Linglong smiled faintly.

"After some time, First Senior Sister will return to Cloud City for a visit. When the time comes, you must perform well in front of First Senior Sister. She has quite a few good things in her hands!"

"First Senior Sister?"

Lu Sheng's heart stirred slightly.

He became somewhat curious as well.

Within the Heaven and Earth Dojo, whether it was the Outer Disciples or Lan Linglong, whenever they mentioned the words First Senior Sister, every one of them revealed a respectful expression.

There was even a trace of admiration within that respect.

Clearly, his First Senior Sister possessed great prestige in the dojo!

"I wonder what kind of person First Senior Sister is!"

Though Lu Sheng was somewhat curious, he quickly calmed down. After nodding at Lan Linglong, he left the dojo.
