"Lu Meng!"
Someone recognized the identity of the dripping head and cried out in alarm. At the same time, they looked at Lu Yuan in fear, never expecting him to act so decisively and ruthlessly!
"Lu Yuan, you've gone too far! Lu Meng is one of the only five Great Heavenly Saints left in the Lu Clan. You killed him just like that—what exactly are you plotting?"
A Heavenly Saint said in shock and fury.
"You can die too."
Lu Yuan did not waste a word. He swung his sword, and the next moment, the man's head and body were separated.
The entire hall fell deathly silent.
Returning to his seat, Lu Yuan casually tossed the head in his hand onto the ground and swept his gaze over everyone. "Who else is against me now?"
Everyone was silent as cicadas in winter.
At this moment, the three Great Heavenly Saints who looked like old men exchanged glances and spoke at the same time. "We agree to Lu Yuan acting as clan leader."
Lu Yuan looked at the three elders and sneered. "You three old fossils only agree now? Isn't it a little late?"
The three elders' expressions changed in unison. "Lu Yuan, are you planning to kill us too?"
Lu Yuan let out a cold laugh. "If it weren't for the fact that you're still somewhat useful, you'd have to die too."
With that, Lu Yuan rose and swept his gaze across the crowd. "From now on, I don't want to see anyone disobeying my orders. Not even once. I won't give anyone a second chance to regret it."
"Now, my first order is to reclaim all the industries that originally belonged to the Lu Clan."
"The date is set for tomorrow. Remember, I don't want to see anyone absent."
After saying this, Lu Yuan left directly without looking back.
Inside Lake Heart Pavilion.
Lu Changming looked worried. "Brother Yuan, were your methods a little too ruthless? After all, they're all members of the clan."
"External threats must be dealt with after internal troubles are settled. In chaotic times, harsh measures are necessary. The Lu Clan is currently in chaotic times. If my heart and methods weren't ruthless enough, I wouldn't be able to suppress these old fellows. If they weren't still useful for the time being, I wouldn't have spared a single one of these people who trade on their seniority."
Lu Yuan gazed into the distance, his eyes deep.
"Although the ancestors have left, as long as even one person from the Lu Clan remains alive, the Lu Clan will exist forever. I, Lu Yuan, will lead the current members of the Lu Clan and restore its former glory."
Lu Changming's blood boiled, and the worry in his eyes vanished. He trusted Lu Yuan completely.
The younger generation of the Lu Clan also regarded Lu Yuan as their idol.
That was also why Lu Yuan wanted to eliminate all the old fossils. These stubborn old fellows would stifle the younger generation's passion and block their advance.
Lu Changming left.
Lu Yuan sat alone inside Lake Heart Pavilion and began cultivating.
Heaven's Mandate Great Villain: Lu Yuan Identity: Direct Eldest Young Master of the Immortal Lu Family, Chaos Divine Son... Constitution and Bloodline: Primeval Demonic Body, Supreme Demonic Heart, Eternal Demonic Pupils Cultivation: Heavenly Saint Pinnacle (Unique Through Eons) Villain Value: Mall: Click to View
When he was on Tianxiao Continent, Lu Yuan never cultivated. It was not because he was lazy, but because his cultivation had already reached a bottleneck.
No matter how much he cultivated, it was useless.
In fact, Lu Yuan could break through to the Great Heavenly Saint realm at any time.
However, Lu Yuan was unwilling to do so. Of the five Break Limit realms, he had only reached the fourth level. He had to break through the fifth Break Limit level before choosing to advance to the Great Heavenly Saint realm. This was a habit he had maintained ever since the Dao Foundation Realm.
Soon, Lu Yuan entered a meditative state and fell into sudden enlightenment.
Multiple kinds of Law power revolved around his body.
After a long while, Lu Yuan exhaled a breath of foul air and slowly opened his eyes. "It still won't work. Exactly how can I Break Limit the Supreme of the Cosmos?"
Lu Yuan fell into deep thought.
Breaking Limit was nearly impossible to influence through external means. However, nothing in the world was absolute. Some extremely precious natural treasures and miraculous creations could help someone Break Limit, but such items were ten thousand times more precious than Law Crystals.
Even the Lu Clan possessed only a handful of such treasures.
And that was only because the Lu Ancestor had paid an enormous price to obtain them for Lu Yuan from elsewhere.
"Forget it."
Putting the matter aside, Lu Yuan stopped cultivating.
Just then—
Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, on obtaining the Troop Summoning System. The system has been bound. The host may view it at any time.
Another cheat ability.
Lu Yuan was delighted and began examining the abilities of his new cheat ability.
Troop Summoning System: The host can purchase materials from the System Mall, consume resource materials, and mass-produce the materials.
Lu Yuan opened the System Mall.
F-rank materials: Captain America, Aquaman, Treant... Price: Ten thousand Star Source Crystals
C-rank materials: Enhanced Homelander, Enhanced Soldier Boy, Enhanced Magneto... Price: One million Star Source Crystals
B-rank materials: Enhanced Hulk, Enhanced Thanos, Enhanced Thor... Price: Five million Star Source Crystals
A-rank materials: Upgraded Sentinel, Upgraded Iceman, Upgraded Apocalypse... Price: Fifteen million Star Source Crystals
S-rank materials: Enhanced Superman, Enhanced Phoenix, Evolved Godzilla... Price: Fifty million Star Source Crystals
SS-rank materials: Titan Giant, Titan Demon Worm, Abyssal Demon Dragon... Price: One hundred million Star Source Crystals
SSS-rank materials: Eternals Corpse King, Eternals Demon Race Insect Mother, Asura... Price: Five hundred million Star Source Crystals
SSSS-rank materials:...
After looking through all the materials, Lu Yuan's eyes lit up.
The materials ranged from F-rank all the way to 10S-rank. Those below A-rank could basically be ignored. A-rank materials had strength roughly below the King Realm.
S-rank materials could reach from the King Realm to the Emperor Realm.
SS-rank materials could reach the Saint Realm.
SSS-rank materials could reach the Earth Saint realm.
As for 4S to 10S, Lu Yuan did not even bother looking at them. He could not afford to buy the materials, let alone the resources required afterward.
But overall, the Troop Summoning System was a decent cheat ability.
As long as he had enough money, he could produce countless powerful subordinates. Well, he could also call them cannon fodder.
At present, Lu Yuan could only afford A-rank materials. He was still a little short of being able to afford S-rank materials.
But Lu Yuan did not think much of materials below SS-rank.
Below the Saint Realm, numbers were meaningless.
"I'm short on money. If only I could get a Godly Rich System."
Lu Yuan sighed. If the Lu Clan were still around, why would he need to worry about Star Source Crystals?
Suddenly, Lu Yuan realized that he seemed to have overlooked something. He could not help frowning as he thought.
"I feel like I've forgotten something."
"That's right, I think I still have a Sign-in System!"
Lu Yuan slapped his forehead and hurriedly found the Sign-in System, then clicked to view it.
"Come to think of it, the Sign-in System isn't useful either. It hasn't issued a single task for so long that I've completely overlooked its existence."
Lu Yuan complained, but in the next second, he froze.
On the Sign-in System's page were dozens of expired sign-in tasks. At present, there was only one new sign-in task.
After taking a look, Lu Yuan was dumbfounded.
It turned out that the Sign-in System had not failed to issue tasks. Rather, when he had first obtained the Sign-in System, his complaint about it had caused the Sign-in System to develop an inferiority complex, so the sign-in tasks it issued afterward had come without notification sounds.
"Holy crap, even a system can feel inferior?"
Lu Yuan could not help blurting out a curse from his previous life. He was genuinely dumbfounded!
Sign-in System: "Wah wah wah? ╭╮?"
