Coming to Their Door
Only then did Luo Fu recover from his shock. To be honest, although he had believed his elder brother would become an expert someday, he had never expected it to happen so quickly. Heavens, a Saint Domain expert at twenty-nine! Before he knew it, the brother who had once sheltered him from wind and rain had grown into a towering tree, while he had grown beneath its shade.
Ever since he was little, his eldest brother had taught him strictly. Without him, Luo Fu would never have achieved what he had today. He might still have been stuck in that little mountain village, with no chance of becoming the ninth-rank expert he was now.
He had only just managed to digest the fact that Silver Dragon was a Saint-level Magical Beast when he learned that his eldest brother was now one of the Yulan Continent's top experts. It left Luo Fu's head spinning. Saint Domain experts had once seemed impossibly distant to him, yet now one stood before him in the flesh-and it was his own brother.
After a long while, Luo Fu finally accepted the truth. Then he suddenly remembered something: he had yet to take his revenge. How could he have cared about anything else in his frenzy? Now that he had seen his eldest brother return, the shock and joy had finally brought him back to his senses. He could kill Masi of the Jax Family, but what would the family think if their genius were killed by some nameless nobody? Besides, their ancestor was a Saint Domain expert. Where could he possibly flee?
"Brother, I want to ask you a favor." Luo Fu had finally calmed down. He looked at Luo Feng, his eyes full of hope.
Luo Feng smacked Luo Fu on the head. "What are you talking about? If you need something, how could I not help? There's no need to ask. You're my only family in this world. If anyone dares lay a hand on you, I'll wipe out their entire clan. I'll make their whole clan accompany you in death."
Luo Fu was moved by his eldest brother's domineering words, and his eyes grew slightly moist. His brother was always like this. Though strict, he cared more about Luo Fu than anyone else. "Eldest brother, I had a conflict with a direct descendant of the Jax Family, and they killed my magical pet, a Level Eight Magical Beast, a saber-toothed tiger. I have to avenge it. If it hadn't risked its life to save me back then, I might already be dead. I've endured this for far too long. Now that I've finally broken through to become a Warrior of the Ninth Rank, I have to take my revenge. But the Jax Family's ancestor is a Saint Domain expert. If he makes a move against me, I'd like you to help me deal with him." As Luo Fu spoke, a deep hatred showed in his eyes, and Luo Feng saw it all.
The Jax Family? Luo Feng remembered something about them. This was Northwest Province, and the Jax Family's ancestor, Mackenzie, was a Saint Domain expert. His strength was nothing remarkable, only at the Saint Realm Mid-Stage, and held no interest for Luo Feng. But Luo Feng cared about his younger brother, so he asked, "Luo Fu, tell me the whole story. If the Jax Family really injured you badly and humiliated you, I don't mind wiping out their entire clan."
Luo Fu then told Luo Feng everything exactly as it had happened. Luo Feng listened carefully, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. His younger brother had nearly been killed. If his magical pet hadn't risked its life to save him, Luo Fu would probably have died long ago. Luo Feng's anger surged. Although his six years in the Dark Forest had stripped away his worldly trappings, Luo Fu was his reverse scale. The Jax Family must have been courting death.
Silver Dragon, who had been listening nearby, had long since grown impatient. By the end, he couldn't help roaring, "Don't they know Luo Fu is my little brother? They dared bully the little brother of Lord Wa'ersi, the Silver Dragon? They must be tired of living. Master, let's go. Isn't the Jax Family so arrogant? I'll wipe out their entire clan."
Luo Feng ignored Silver Dragon's shouting and listened quietly to Luo Fu's account. Only when Luo Fu had finished did he say, "Luo Fu, tell me what you want to do. But I can tell you this: the Jax Family is nothing before me. As for their ancestor, if you don't like him, I'll simply get rid of him. First, tell me what you think."
A warm current passed through Luo Fu's heart when he heard his brother's words. As long as his brother knew he had suffered a grievance, he would never let the culprit go, whoever it was. "Eldest brother, I think we should leave the ordinary people of the Jax Family alone. I want to kill Masi fair and square. I've waited a long time for this day. Masi is my only enemy, but if anyone else helps him, I don't mind killing them too."
"Since that's your decision, let's go." Luo Feng grabbed Luo Fu with one hand and flew into the air, then tossed him onto Wa'ersi's back. Standing in midair, he said, "Wa'ersi, let's go to the Jax Family."
Silver Dragon laughed. "Little Luo Fu, hold on tight. Let me show you how fast a Saint-level Magical Beast can fly. Haha, off we go to the Jax Family."
Above the Jax Family's castle in Basil, the provincial capital, Luo Feng and Silver Dragon looked coldly down at the castle below.
"Masi of the Jax Family, get your ass out here! If I don't see you in three breaths, I, Lord Wa'ersi, will wipe out your entire clan!" Silver Dragon had long been unable to contain himself. As soon as they arrived outside the Jax Family's castle, he roared at those inside. Luo Feng did nothing to stop him, tacitly allowing it.
"Who are you people?" the castle guards shouted from a distance. The Jax Family were the uncrowned rulers of Northwest Province, and not just anyone could enter their stronghold.
But when the guard saw Luo Feng standing in midair, he swallowed the threat he had been about to make and said sheepishly, "My lord, this is the Jax Family's residence. May I ask what brings you here?"
"Who's shouting out there?"
A familiar voice rang out. Luo Fu looked carefully toward the gate and, sure enough, the richly dressed young master Masi emerged, surrounded by servants.
Seeing the change in his younger brother's expression, Luo Feng immediately knew this was Luo Fu's enemy, Masi. Standing quietly in the sky, he smiled faintly and said, "You're Masi? The genius of the Jax Family?"
Masi looked at Luo Feng standing in midair and exclaimed in shock, "A Saint Domain expert?" He finally recovered his senses, swallowed, and said, "I'm Masi. May I ask what brings you to the Jax Family, my lord? You must be a friend of our ancestor. I'll go pass word to him for you."
The Jax Family's castle was enormous, but nearly everyone in it knew that the Clear Garden, which occupied almost a third of the castle grounds, was a forbidden area.
That was because it was Mackenzie's residence. Apart from Mackenzie and his wife, only his three attendants and his disciple could enter freely. Even the family head and his son normally had to be announced before they could go in.
The Clear Garden was immense. Trees and flowers occupied more than half of it, and the buildings within were all simple, unadorned, single-story residences. Even so, it could easily house a hundred people.
At that moment, Mackenzie, who had been cultivating, was interrupted by Silver Dragon's roar and flew out of the castle. Seeing Luo Feng standing in midair, he felt that he did not know him. Puzzlement in his eyes, he said, "May I ask who you are?"
Luo Feng carefully examined Mackenzie. He appeared to be about fifty. Though his hair was streaked with gray, there was not a single wrinkle on his face. He stood in midair like a spear, and his unshakable bearing secretly startled even Luo Feng. He was probably only one step away from reaching Saint Domain Peak. Unfortunately, he still had not comprehended the laws, and that step would be Mackenzie's greatest obstacle.
Luo Feng raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "You're Mackenzie, right? My name is Luo Feng. I know you don't know me, but my younger brother knows a direct descendant of your Jax Family."
Only then did the crowd turn their attention to Luo Fu on Silver Dragon's back. Below, Masi's expression changed drastically. Is that him? That lowborn wretch? The one I gravely injured who was lucky enough to escape? He's actually the younger brother of a Saint Domain expert? I'm finished! What do I do?
