Chapter 219: Chapter 131: Complete Chaos! This news came too suddenly for Lu Kong to be mentally prepared; at this moment, his vision darkened, and he could hardly breathe. "Are you... are you telling the truth?" Lu Kong’s face turned an unsightly bluish-purple, and his lips trembled. He stared intently at the young man from the Lu family in front of him, desperately hoping that what he heard was false news. The youth, covered in blood and dirt, wept bitterly, crawling forward to clutch Lu Kong’s leg. "Family Head... Family Head, I saw it all with my own eyes, Uncle Dazhi’s corpse was split in two!" "And Ah Ming and the others, every one of them is dead, all dead!" The youth began to scream loudly, clearly deeply shocked, and he jumped up and down, yelling; Zhao Honglie frowned and swiftly knocked the youth unconscious with a karate chop. "Master Lu, please, calm yourself..." Zhao Honglie said sympathetically. The other family heads also showed regret on their faces; from the youth’s words earlier, it was not difficult to tell that one of the Lu family’s bases had been eliminated! "Could it be Liu Yuanhu?" Zhao Qingcheng, the Zhao family head, had a flicker in his eyes. He couldn’t help but think of the Zhao family’s stronghold, exchanging glances with several other family heads, all realizing the key within. Lu Kong’s eyes gradually turned red. Tonight’s raid on Black Water Town was supposed to be a great victory, but first Lu Ming and others were delayed in returning, then such terrible news followed, causing his earlier joy to vanish immediately. "Master Lu, please calm down; the urgent matter now is to find out who the culprit is. If it truly is Liu Yuanhu, we should be prepared..." Zhao Honglie advised again, and Lu Kong took several deep breaths, barely managing to control his agitation. Hoarsely he said: "What Boss Zhao says makes sense, no matter which beast has committed such a cruel and vicious act, my Lu family will never let him go!!" "Rest assured, Master Lu, our Black Sand Gang will advance and retreat alongside you!" "That’s right, our Zhao family will also stand with you against the enemy!" Everyone voiced their support. After all, some polite words wouldn’t cost them anything. When it really came to action? Sorry, then the distribution of benefits had to be in place! The people formed alliances for future gains. They seemed of one mind, but in reality, everyone had their own calculations. Lu Kong took a deep breath, cupped his hands, and said: "Boss Zhao, gentlemen, I must take my leave first; I must return at once to see what exactly is going on." "Shall I send someone with you?" "There’s no need, the men of the Lu family are sufficient! If Lu Ming returns, please inform Boss Zhao to have him come over immediately." There was some anger in Lu Kong’s eyes. Lu Ming had yet to return, and he had made up his mind to punish him heavily afterward! "Very well! Master Lu, go without worries, I will certainly inform him." Zhao Honglie gestured with a cupped hand. At this moment. A hurried footstep sounded again outside the door, causing Lu Kong to shudder, for it was just like this before, when he learned the news of the massacre, and now again? Seeing it was a Martial Artist from the Black Sand Gang, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. This time it was Zhao Honglie’s turn to feel tense. He urgently asked: "What has happened?" The Martial Artist from the Black Sand Gang dared not hesitate even slightly, he knelt on the ground, speaking rapidly. "To report to the Gang Leader, the scouts brought news that the forces sent to attack Gu’s Manor encountered obstacles, and at least half were lost inside!" "What did you say?!" Before Zhao Honglie could speak, Lu Kong’s eyes were already wide open, bloodshot, nearly looking like a demon emerging from hell. He was just thinking about severely punishing Lu Ming. Unexpectedly, he immediately heard news regarding Lu Ming. The forces sent to attack Gu’s Manor consisted mostly of his Lu family men, with only a small part being the Black Sand Gang! If half were lost, and with the stronghold being massacred, the Lu family’s power drastically fell. He breathed heavily, staring fiercely at the Black Sand Gang Martial Artist, shouting: "Where are the remaining people now, why haven’t they returned?" The Black Sand Gang Martial Artist, under such an intense glare from Lu Kong, felt immense pressure envelop him, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, he quickly said: "Please, Master Lu, calm your anger... According to the news from the scouts, they have not seen Lord Lu Ming and others return, it is very likely... very likely they have all been wiped out..." Pfft! As the words fell, a mist of blood sprayed forth. Not from the Black Sand Gang Martial Artist, but from Lu Kong. His mind was shaken, his whole body’s Qi Blood Power was in chaos, too furious, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably. "Nonsense! Utter nonsense!" If Lu Ming, along with those dozens of Martial Artists, had been entirely wiped out, and the Martial Artists defending the stronghold were also wiped out, it would mean the Lu family was left with only those who attacked Black Water Town, reducing their power by at least sixty percent! He glared fiercely, poised to strike. The Black Sand Gang Martial Artist was terrified, hastily bowing and begging for mercy. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺 Lu Kong knew this was most likely true, all at once everything fit, how else could the assailants have known about the hidden valley of the Lu family, it was most likely extracted after killing Lu Ming and others. Thinking like this, he felt darkness before his eyes again and spewed blood once more, the whole world spinning around him. "Family Head! Family Head!" A Martial Artist from the Lu family shouted in great horror, quickly stepping forward to support Lu Kong. Zhao Honglie and the other family heads also quickly stepped forward to comfort him. However, in their hearts, small thoughts began to arise. Now that the Lu family’s strength had diminished too much, the distribution of benefits thereafter... it seemed they might need to renegotiate.
