Liu Huo Becomes Famous

After hanging up the phone, Lu Gu and Dongfang Liyin exchanged a look. They couldn't understand what their son was thinking.

It was quite shocking.

Who goes to break off an engagement and ends up strengthening it?

"Congratulations, your son is going to be famous." After a long silence, Lu Gu finally spoke these words.

Dongfang Liyin rolled her eyes and then said:

"Same to you."

Lu Gu said helplessly:

"What do you think our son is thinking?"

Dongfang Liyin shook her head:

"I don't know what my son is thinking, but I know Mu Xue must be very touched."

Theoretically, she would indeed be very touched. The entire Mu family had chosen to abandon her, and yet Lu Shui, who was supposed to break off the engagement, stood up for her.

No matter how you looked at it, it would leave an indelible impression on her heart.

"Whether she's touched or not, we'll deal with that later. This matter has a significant impact on the Lu family, I need to go find the Third Elder," Lu Gu said.

Dongfang Liyin asked curiously:

"You don't seem to blame your son much."

Lu Gu looked at Dongfang Liyin and thought for a moment:

"Perhaps it's because it was too astonishing, beyond my imagination. I considered many possibilities, but never this one."

Pfft~

Dongfang Liyin also nodded excitedly:

"Me neither. I had already imagined our son being severely disciplined for being too arrogant, but I never thought that he would be arrogant, trample on the Mu family's dignity, and yet the Mu family wouldn't get angry but would endure it.

It's too astonishing.

It's a shame things went wrong."

Lu Shui felt he had rested enough, so he got up and left. On the way, he asked:

"What did my father say?"

Zhen Wu didn't hide anything:

"The clan leader said not to let the young master run away."

Lu Shui: "..."

Running away wasn't necessary. No matter what happened when he returned, he wouldn't die.

But if he ran away, it would be hard to say. Although with his current abilities he could surely avoid danger, it wasn't as comfortable as staying in the Lu family.

Besides, if he didn't stay put in the Lu family, how could he go to the Mu family again to break off the engagement?

Did the Mu family think that because he failed to break off the engagement this time, they wouldn't come a second time?

Naive.

Once he found a way to suppress Mu Xue, breaking off the engagement would be the first thing he'd do.

After a long while, Lu Shui stepped onto the train, and the train closed its doors and departed from the platform.

As the last carriage of the train left the platform, a person suddenly appeared on the previously empty platform.

She stood there, her long hair dancing in the breeze.

She looked in the direction the train was leaving, her eyes filled with a hint of reluctance.

After waiting for a moment, she finally spoke:

"Three years. In another three years, I'll be able to stand by your side openly and rightfully, and then I'll act spoiled with you."

A breeze blew past, and the figure on the platform had already disappeared.

At this moment, Lu Shui looked in the direction of the platform. Although he could no longer see it, he still looked, and then thought to himself:

"No rush. The future is still long, and I will come again."

Floating Sky Island.

"Lu Shui? I think I've heard of him," a middle-aged man said.

"Oh? Can you tell me who he is specifically?" an old man asked, somewhat agitated.

Beside the old man were two children, a boy and a girl who wasn't very bright.

The middle-aged man didn't understand but still replied:

"There is indeed a young master named Lu Shui in the Lu family, but I don't know what he looks like specifically."

It's just that this Lu Shui doesn't have a good reputation.

Rumor has it that this Young Master Lu is a wasted youngster.

However, besides being useless, there are no other rumors. I haven't heard of any evil deeds he's committed."

The old man's eyes were shining as he said:

"Where is that Lu family located?"

"Qiuyun Town," the middle-aged man replied.

Finally, the old man left with two children.

"Grandfather, where are we going?" the boy asked.

"To Qiuyun Town," the old man replied.

"What are we going to do there?" the boy asked again.

"To repay a debt," the old man said.

"Hidden Heaven Sect Young Sect Master Liu Huo? Does such a person really exist?"

"It's all over Floating Sky Island. I heard that the chaos a couple of days ago was caused by this Young Sect Master."

"Right, right. I heard that the Young Sect Master is extremely domineering. Just because someone glanced at him, he flew into a rage and took it out on the entire Floating Sky Island."

"I heard that someone bumped into him while passing by, and he directly caused Floating Sky Island to suffer huge losses."

"Hidden Heaven Sect Liu Huo is truly too ferocious. We'll really have to take a detour in the future."

"How can we take a detour? You don't even know what he looks like."

"Right, right. I heard that everyone who saw his true face died."

Listening to these words, Lu Shui, who was sitting in the waiting hall, didn't know what to say for a moment.

Where did all these rumors come from?

And they're so outrageous?

True Martial and True Spirit stood by without saying a word.

They were fortunate that Young Master used the name of Hidden Heaven Sect. If he had used the name Lu Shui of the Lu family.

They would have been beaten to death by the Third Elder as soon as they returned.

However, it seemed they had formed some enmity with Hidden Heaven Sect.

After all, they had used the Young Sect Master.

Finally, the two of them exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helplessness.

Young Master really knows how to cause trouble.

How long have they been out? How many incidents have they encountered? Their reputation has spread far and wide.

None of them, whether in the open or in secret, are unknown.

By the time Lu Shui returned to Qiuyun Town, it was already the next afternoon.

As soon as he walked out of the station, he discovered that Qiuyun Town was isolated by a formation, and the formation was continuously releasing healing spells.

Lu Shui looked at the formation and said:

"What happened?"

True Martial immediately replied:

"True Spirit has already gone to inquire."

Lu Shui nodded, then walked along the town's streets.

There weren't many people on the streets, and they all seemed listless.

However, there were people from the Lu family constantly patrolling.

Soon, True Spirit returned.

"Young Master, it seems to be a mutation. Many people suddenly fell ill, and their bodies began to show abnormal changes.

But it has been controlled, and the problem isn't serious. Now, all that's needed is treatment."

Lu Shui frowned. He didn't say anything but headed directly towards the Lu family's residence.

"That's right, it's this time. Mother was sick for a long time during this mutation."

At that time, the cause had never been found.

As for the matter he had instructed True Martial and True Spirit to handle last time, he didn't need to ask to know they had done it. Otherwise, the Lu family wouldn't have been able to control the situation in such a short period.

The Lu family didn't pay much attention to Qiuyun Town. If a large portion of the town didn't fall ill, the Lu family wouldn't even bother.

Yesterday, his parents didn't remind True Martial, which meant that nothing had happened yesterday afternoon, or it had just happened and hadn't been reported to the Lu family yet.

He didn't think too much and quickened his pace. Although his mother was fine in the end, it was better to avoid suffering if possible.

If she had truly fallen ill, he would have had to use Heaven and Earth Power to help her resolve the issue while it was still in its early stages.

But he was curious. With his mother's cultivation, how could she have gotten sick?

He couldn't understand.

This pollution shouldn't have had much of an impact on a cultivator.

Soon, Lu Shui left Qiuyun Town and headed towards the mountains. He hadn't walked for long before he stopped.

True Martial True Spirit also stopped behind Lu Shui because a person was approaching them.
