Martial Peak

Chapter 378

Lu Liang was really helpless.

He couldn’t understand Yang Kai at all. Although he was the Patriarch of the Lu Family, Yang Kai’s status was by no means lower than his own. Even if Lu Liang felt incredibly annoyed, he still had no choice but to speak in a calm manner and hope that this Young Master Yang could understand the meaning behind his words, praying that he would respond to courtesy with courtesy.

However, this Young Master Yang seemed completely oblivious, like he had no intention of thinking any deeper at all, even given the obvious entreaty in Lu Liang’s words. Instead, he just stared back, blankly, “Why do we need to go somewhere else?”

The veins on Lu Liang’s forehead throbbed in distress.

Still forcing his anger down as best he could, Lu Liang wore a solemn expression and replied, “Young Master Yang, this place is the secluded retreat of a powerful master of my Lu Family. It is normally off limits to everyone. I’m afraid that if we were to speak here, it will disturb this Senior’s cultivation. If so… haha.”

“A powerful master!?” Yang Kai quickly stood up, and the volume of his voice multiplied several times, like booming thunder.

All of the Lu Family’s Elders’ faces suddenly became ugly.

[This brat… is he doing this on purpose?]

Yang Kai seemed ignorant of their pained expressions as he looked around with interest before turning to Lu Liang with a smile, “I don’t see anyone…”

“Young Master Yang!” Lu Liang’s face became gloomy as his patience was pushed to its limit. “Please be serious!”

It was no small feat to force the poignant Lu Liang to speak such harsh words.

If this place wasn’t Lu Si’s secluded retreat, Lu Liang wouldn’t possibly brave the risk of offending Yang Kai.

However, Yang Kai just stared back at him with a sheepish grin.

His smile was calm, completely without other meaning.

Inside however there was just a tinge of surprise; he hadn’t expected that this place would be so important to the Lu Family!

Yang Kai knew that there must be a master living here, or else it would be impossible to have such an ornate courtyard, so he had used the Golden Feather Eagle dropping that porcupine in order to have an excuse to intrude here.

But despite knowing that there was a master here, Yang Kai didn’t fully understand how important this place was until Lu Liang and the other Lu Family Elders had shown up. It looked like he had stumbled upon the Lu Family’s most forbidden area.

However, with things having already reached this point, he had no choice other than to continue feigning innocence, or both sides would end up in an even more awkward state.

Yang Kai wasn’t someone who didn’t understand onset and retreat. As soon as he saw Lu Liang and the others appear here so swiftly, he realized that things weren’t as simple as he had imagined. Now that Lu Liang had spoken so far, Yang Kai could naturally determine who lived here.

The Lu Family’s only Above Immortal Ascension Boundary master!

If it was anyone else, it would be impossible for Lu Liang to be so nervous.

Interestingly, the thing that had caught Yang Kai’s attention actually seemed to be inside that powerful master’s room. This would be a bit tricky, apparently.
