Peerless Taoist

After the banquet ended, the two of them left separately, and Lu Yu returned to Xiahou Manor.    

He was in a place that had yet to be established in the Imperial Capital, so he could only stay in Xiahou Manor for the time being.    

At night, Xiahou Manor was already pitch black. However, there were still some disciples of Xiahou Manor meditating and cultivating. On the martial arena, there were still people sparring back and forth.    

Lu Yu passed by, but he did not disturb the others. Instead, he returned to his own residence.    

He didn't expect that there would be someone waiting outside his house.    

"Great expert Lu, you have finally returned. What, are you alright at the Covered Water Banquet?"    

Standing at the entrance were Xia Houjun and Long Yunshan.    

At this moment, both of them were staring at Lu Yu with furious eyes.    

At the Covered Water Feast, they had originally come with Mu Feibai. Unfortunately, Mu Feibai had lost his face and left in anger. They couldn't stay there any longer.    

Now, the fury in their hearts had been vented on Lu Yu.    

"What do you want from me?" Lu Yu said in a flat tone.    

"Of course I am. If it wasn't for you, why would we leave the Water Feast? Your skin is really thick, that formation was obviously broken by Senior Mu so quickly. You secretly went over and took advantage of it, and even made Senior Brother Mu unable to get off the stage. How can there be such a shameless person in the world! "    

Long Yunshan was the first to be picky.    

She had been holding back her anger for a long time. When she saw Lu Yu return, she immediately erupted with anger.    

Lu Yu said coldly, "I'm afraid you are mistaken. I was the one who broke the formation. Your Senior Mu's method of breaking the formation was wrong from the beginning. It's normal that he couldn't break the formation. "    

Lu Yu was telling the truth.    

But why would Long Yunshan believe Lu Yu's words?    

"Hehe, what a joke. You know formations? I've already asked around, you're just a person who ascended from the lower realms. It's already good enough to have a little interest in the cultivation level. You said you broke your own formation. You're really boasting shamelessly. Aren't you afraid that your tongue will get stuck in your mouth when you talk big?! " Long Yunshan's face was full of disdain.    

"Alright, Shan'er, let me do it."    

Xiahou Jun walked forward and looked at Lu Yu provocatively. "Although I don't know why Family Head strongly recommended you, in my opinion, you are nothing more than that."    

All of a sudden, a powerful aura burst out from Xiahou Jun's body.    

That aura was shocking. Cracks started appearing on the ground around Lu Yu.    

"Do you want to fight here?" Lu Yu frowned.    

The reason why he didn't make a move earlier was because he had promised Xiahou Li that he would protect his family.    

However, if this Xiahou Jun provoked him again and again, Lu Yu wouldn't mind teaching him a lesson.    

"Don't worry. You are a distinguished guest of our Xiahou Family. I was afraid that I would hurt you. When that time comes, Family Head will blame me, and I will take responsibility for it."    

Xiahou Jun looked at Lu Yu coldly and said proudly, "Although you know a lot of powerful people, you must know that. This world does not rely on connections, but strength. I heard that you are also participating in the Imperial Examinations. When you arrive at the Imperial Examinations... I'll let you know, what things can't be obtained through connections."    

"When that happens, you'll know how big the gap between you and me is. Geniuses like us are not the same as you."    

Xiahou Jun revealed a mocking smile and left with Long Yunshan.
