Establishment Families Are Fishing_l

Translator: 549690339

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Lu Ming was silenced immediately, it indeed was so. Given the power of that loose cultivator, killing the mysterious loose cultivator was not a straightforward task.

Besides, who knows what methods this mysterious loose cultivator has.

If they aren't careful, it's likely that the Lu family will lose even more late Qi cultivators.

And that could be a disaster for the Lu family.

“And the most important point is, how do you know for sure that it's a loose cultivator and not from another family?”

“You were out fishing, killing loose cultivators, unaware that others might also be out fishing, plotting to kill our Lu family cultivators.”

“A cultivator who can deceive you surely isn't simple, right?”

The Lu family elder sneered, pointing out the most critical issue.

“This!”

Shopkeeper Lu Ming suddenly felt a chill running down his spine as if a bucket of cold water poured from head to toe, because he could not confirm whether the mysterious cultivator was really a loose cultivator.

What if it was from another family, acting as bait to kill the Lu family?

What should they do then?

He really needs to consider this matter carefully.

“Has that loose cultivator already left Misty Cloud City?”

The Lu family elder asked.

“Yes, he has indeed left Misty Cloud City.”

Shopkeeper Lu Ming nodded his head.

“That's right, this loose cultivator is doubtless bait, with the aim of tempting our Lu Family cultivators out of the city to assassinate us. If they can kill us Qi Cultivation nineth Layer cultivators, then the Lu Family has no chance of fostering a Foundation Establishment cultivator. These Foundation Establishment families are ruthless indeed.”

The Lu Family elder commented quietly.

He knows how ruthless the Lu family has been over the years, and how many Foundation Establishment families they have offended.

Now, these Foundation Establishment families are watching the decline of the Lu family, all want to take advantage of their misfortune.

“Could it be that these cultivating families are so cruel?”

Shopkeeper Lu Ming clenched his fists.

“Humph, they're more ruthless than you can imagine. I think that loose cultivator as a bait, even wants to entice our Lu family's ancestor.”

The Lu family elder's eyes showed a trace of chilliness, “Try to think about it, if even the Qi Cultivation nineth Layer cultivators can't handle it and we lose several Qi Cultivation nineth Layer elders, wouldn't our Lu family ancestor have to take action?

The problem is, as soon as they make their move and leave Misty Cloud City, they would fall into the enemy's trap. Perhaps these Foundation Establishment cultivators are planning to attack our Lu family ancestor. Even if they don't kill the ancestor, they will seriously damage his vitality.

If the ancestor tries to hang on, he could live for a few more years, but once he makes a move and his vitality leaks out, he might not be able to survive even a few months. By that time, wouldn't our Lu family be finished?”

“Indeed.”

Shopkeeper Lu Ming was sweating profusely. If the Lu family ancestor died, then he and the rest of the Lu family cultivators would likely be wiped out by the other Foundation Establishment families.

Except for a few clan members, none might survive.

He never expected such vast conspiracies and trickery behind a simple loose cultivator.

A small misstep could lead to the destruction of the Lu family. How vicious is this plot!

“Of course, there is another possibility: the mysterious loose cultivator is genuinely a loose cultivator who coincidentally obtained a heritage and gained considerable combat power and ended up killing several Lu family cultivators.”

“The problem is, with the Lu family currently in a precarious state, on the brink of destruction, we simply cannot take that risk.”

“If we lose the bet, it would be all over. Even if we win, there's not much benefit. It's just killing a loose cultivator.”

The Lu family elder said quietly.

“I understand, Elder.”

Shopkeeper Lu Ming nodded. He was not a fool. He knew exactly what the elder meant.

The Lu family is too weak, there are no new Foundation Establishment cultivators, and it could collapse at any moment.

Even if the opponent is truly just a loose cultivator with no conspiracy behind him, the Lu family cannot take action.

Because the most crucial thing for the Lu family right now is to foster a new Foundation Establishment cultivator. Other than that, they cannot intervene in anything else. They can only hunker down inside Misty Cloud City.

Relying on Misty Cloud City's second tier formation, other Foundation Establishment families also dare not act recklessly.

The Lu family must be turtles hiding in their shells right now.

Of course, the situation would be entirely different if a new Foundation Establishment cultivator emerges from the Lu family. They would settle both old grudges and new resentments.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

As some late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators from the Lu family died and there was no behind-the-scenes mastermind stirring things up, the entire Misty Cloud City seemed to regain its former tranquility, and street killings became increasingly rare.

Misty Cloud City seemed to gradually return to its former prosperity with a large number of loose cultivators flooding into the city.

At this moment, Zhou Sui was also at home practicing bitterly, while his clone remained hidden in a cave outside the city—keeping a low profile.

Since it's a clone, fundamentally a clone gu, as offspring-worm, it's an insect, not needing food or even air.

As long as the main body is alive, the clone will also be alive.

So this clone, like a lifeless object, hid in the cave without any movement.

“Strange, the Lu family doesn't seem to be moving. They haven't sent anyone to find my clone. Could it be that the Lu family did not do anything?” Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

Originally, he had prepared for his clone to die. After all, facing the formidable power of the Lu family, he had nowhere to hide.

But he waited for a whole month without any movement.

It seemed as if the death of a few late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators meant nothing to the Lu family—which had no intention of revenge.

They didn't even issue a wanted notice, as though nothing had happened at all.

“No, it can't be concluded like this. Who knows if the Lu family is just fishing—waiting for my main body to appear and then catch me all at once. It would be better to remain cautious.”

“Three months, at least three more months. If the Lu family still has no reaction, then there's nothing to worry about.”

Zhou Sui's eyes gleamed.

He didn't want to take any risk, even the smallest risk.

He himself was practicing peacefully, he could achieve immortality—there was no need to take risks.

Anyway, the treasure was here; it wouldn't run away. He could take it whenever he wanted. There was no need to rush.

In this dangerous cultivation world, one must always tread on thin ice.

Being careful is always better than being careless.

No one knows how many cultivators have died unexpectedly due to a moment of carelessness.

He would not make the same mistakes.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui looked at his virtual panel subconsciously.

Clearly, after a month of intense cultivation, his cultivation level has improved quite a bit..
