All the members present: "(；?Д?)"
The two strong bystanders: "(⊙_☉)?"
Holy shit? This is even possible?
A deathly silence fell over the arena; even Lei Yanpao and Gao Ning stood frozen in place.
Yes! How come they didn't think of that?
If Lu Xuan just kills everyone present and destroys the evidence, wouldn't he have nothing left?
Why didn't we think of that?
Then everyone realized that Lu Xuan was a Taoist priest from Wudang, and he was a righteous person!
Yeah! What makes you think you can?
How could someone of the righteous path resort to murder to silence a witness?
You're not a member of the Quanxing faction, so why are you being so cruel?
Lu Xuan looked at everyone as if they were a group of creatures with substandard intelligence—in short, mentally challenged.
The level of scheming and intrigue is vastly different from Zhao Fangxu's approach of using both soft and hard tactics to probe the enemy when things became unworkable, and then decisively compromising and admitting defeat.
If such framing and moral blackmail were effective, Zhao Fangxu would probably laugh himself to death in the chairman's office of NaDuTong.
Lu Xuan never used justice to justify himself.
To him, such framing and slander was utterly shallow and ridiculous.
Murder is murder. Whether it's killing an alien or an ordinary person, everyone has their own stance. To justify one's actions with the name of justice is nothing but self-deception.
His attitude has always been the same as what he told Liu Yanyan back then.
"No matter what happens in the world, whether it's discussing grand principles or the most basic concepts of good and evil, it all comes down to the fundamental principle of 'a life for a life.'"
He who kills will always be killed.
You wanted to kill me, so I killed you, that's all.
Gao Ning, Liu Bihua, and Hu Lin have painstakingly set up this trap to harm me. Do I have to fall into their trap and do what they want?
Am I supposed to stand there and become a life coach, giving long lectures and debating with them? Trying to reason with them?
I'm too lazy to talk or listen; I'll just kill you all!
His gaze swept over the numerous Quanxing members who were rapidly cooling down.
Lu Xuan spoke softly.
"who is the next?"
The office was deathly silent. The Quanxing members, who had been so arrogant just moments before, demanding that Lu Xuan kneel down and accept his death, were now cowering like quails in the rain.
Someone swallowed hard, and the fear spread with the silence in the air.
Quanxing doesn't follow rules, but they believe that Lu Xuan, as a righteous person, will abide by the rules, which is why they came up with this scheme that now seems extremely idiotic.
When they discovered that Lu Xuan was not following the plan at all, ignoring the rules and calculations, the fear of power once again took hold.
"Esteemed benefactors..."
Gao Ning quietly hid behind the crowd, and the Twelve Labors Formation was quietly unfolded, stirring up the emotions of everyone present.
The voice seemed to possess a certain magic, making people subconsciously want to listen.
"Esteemed patrons, don't forget that the company's leader is arriving soon. Hang in there, everyone."
"Let's all attack together. No matter how powerful Master Lu is, he may not be able to kill us all before the company's leader arrives."
Gao Ning's manipulative tactics caused all the Quanxing members present to unknowingly turn bloodshot and fill with murderous intent.
Then Gao Ning quietly walked to the door.
Having experienced the pain of losing his son, Hu Lin, who was already filled with murderous intent, could no longer restrain himself and charged towards Lu Xuan.
"You damned little beast, I'll make you pay for my son's life."
The Quanxing group behind him was also infected by the fervent emotions, and they surged towards Lu Xuan along with Hu Lin.
"Master Lu, they were all manipulated by Gao Ning!"
Er Zhuang spoke up, wanting to say that these people were being manipulated, otherwise they wouldn't have been so irrational as to fight Lu Xuan so desperately.
Since these people are being misled, there's no need to take drastic measures against them.
Facing them, a Quanxing member with murderous intent in his eyes swung his watermelon knife and slashed at them.
This Quanxing ran incredibly fast, reaching Lu Xuan even faster than Hu Lin.
Before the knife could even be brought down, he felt his body become light and airy.
Then it felt like I was flying...
Looking down, he saw that Lu Xuan held a sword made of condensed qi in his hand, which sliced through his upper body.
The body, strengthened with Qi, was easily sliced open like tofu by Lu Xuan's casually condensed Qi.
Fresh blood, mixed with internal organs and the stomach and intestines, gushed out from the mirror-smooth incision.
Quanxing was cut in half at the waist and died instantly, his internal organs spilling out onto the ground in a bloody mess.
With a wave of his hand, the backpack and peach wood sword on the ground flew onto his body automatically, and the talisman on the sword turned to ashes without a sound.
“I know,” Lu Xuan said casually.
Er Zhuang felt a chill in his heart.
She understood the unspoken second half of Lu Xuan's sentence.
Lu Xuan knew, but he didn't care.
As a being close to immortality, Lu Xuan didn't even take Na Du Tong seriously, let alone the Quanxing who had actively provoked him.
These Quanxing members were doomed to die when they set up their scheme against Lu Xuan.
Whether these Quanxing members are being manipulated or instigated before, it doesn't affect their inevitable death at this moment.
Unfortunately, these people are now being controlled by Gao Ning, filled with murderous intent and unafraid of fear... eager to die.
Hu Lin, the strongest player on the field, was furious, his hair and beard bristling. Gao Ning kept provoking him, and the image of his only son's tragic death kept flashing before his eyes.
His emotions were already at their limit.
There's a saying: "Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger!"
Driven by boundless rage, Hu Lin relentlessly squeezed his meridians, releasing all the Qi he had cultivated for decades at this moment.
"You killed my son, and I will take your life today."
Hu Lin was like a raging lion, his emotions at their peak. Even Gao Ning, who was constantly provoking Hu Lin's meridians, was covered in sweat.
Thud! It sounded like a bowstring snapping.
The violent power and emotions were concentrated in Hu Lin's punch, which came down like a raging lion or tiger.
Following the force of the punch, a phantom tiger began to take shape, its roar shaking the mountains and forests, shattering and crushing everything in the conference room.
Having honed this fist technique to the point where it truly resembles a tiger descending the mountain, Hu Lin truly deserves his reputation as a figure who has made a name for himself in the world of supernatural beings.
"I am going to kill you!"
Hu Lin, as if possessed by a madman, unleashed a devastating attack, squeezing every last drop of energy from his own meridians.
Lu Xuan gave a nonchalant "oh" without offering any explanation.
He raised his hand and pressed it directly against Hu Lin's fist.
The seemingly casual palm strike actually blocked Hu Lin's life-risking punch.
Hu Lin even felt his power being stuck and pulled, circulating for a full cycle before returning to him.
This was the last thought in Hu Lin's mind.
Then, a force dozens or even hundreds of times more violent than his punch suddenly erupted.
First, Hu Lin's hand instantly shattered into a shower of blood and flesh under the immense force, and then his entire body slammed heavily against the wall like a cannonball.
Then the power of the "shell" was fully unleashed.
Under the shocked gazes of many members of the Quanxing faction, Hu Lin crashed against the thick concrete wall of the office, exploding into countless pieces of flesh and blood.
A pool of human-shaped flesh and blood on the wall was his last remaining trace.
Chapter Thirty-Three: Let me out! I really was just passing by!
Gao Ning, who was frantically banging on the door: "..."
Just kidding, he wouldn't actually fight Lu Xuan to the death. While the rest of the Quanxing were being manipulated by him to their deaths, he was already planning to smash open the door and escape.
After smashing around for ages, the office door was like it had been enchanted; we just couldn't break it open.
Logically speaking, one punch from him should have been enough to shatter stone tablets, but when he slammed his fist into the gate, the gate didn't even shake.
After knocking on the door for a long time in vain, Gao Ning could roughly figure out what was going on!
This is ridiculous! Lu Xuan is trying to trap a dog inside a closed door... no, he's trying to catch it in a jar...
They just didn't intend for anyone to get out alive!
After watching Hu Lin explode into fireworks next to him, with blood and flesh fragments splattering across the wall and leaving a blurry human-shaped mark, he realized that Hu Lin was the one who had been killed.
Gao Ning felt the warm flesh and blood splattered on his face.
He subconsciously swallowed, then continued banging on the door frantically.
Let me out! Let me out!
I was really just an innocent monk passing by!
This script is wrong! Gao Ning was on the verge of tears.
Originally, Gao Ning's script was like a short drama: they framed Lu Xuan without restraint, and Lu Xuan was unable to defend himself and was slandered as a murderer.
When filming officially began, they discovered that the script cover was folded, and when they opened it, it said "Male-oriented Short Drama".
