Becoming a god begins with the evolution of acupoint supernatural powers.

"Senior Brother Lu summoned me here. What are your instructions?"

After Chen Jinyang left, Lu Ming asked Li Hu to call Wu San over.

At this moment, Wu San stood in his courtyard, his head bowed and his eyes downcast, even his triangular eyes seemed much more docile.

Wu San was truly afraid. Once Lu Ming rose to power, if he was determined to take revenge, Wu San would have no chance of escaping.

Even if Lu Ming is eventually killed by Shen Changfeng, what good will it do? He's finished too.

So, after lunch, he arrived even earlier than Chen Jinyang and came to visit Lu Ming to apologize.

At the time, Lu Ming didn't say anything, only that there might be something he needed to do.

I didn't expect him to be called over so soon.

Lu Ming gently stroked the jade pendant in his hand. The jade was made of superior material, warm and smooth, with the character "Chen" engraved on the front and the two small characters "Jin Yang" in the corner.

This is a jade pendant worn by all direct descendants of the Chen family; it is a unique token.

Chen Jinyang gave him this token in an attempt to lure him away from the Military Service Department, but he didn't expect that he had no intention of keeping the appointment at all.

Seeing Wu San's submissive demeanor, he placed the jade pendant into a pre-written letter on the table beside him, then sealed the letter and handed it to Wu San:

"Could you please deliver this letter to...?"

Wu San took the letter, listened carefully, and then respectfully said:

"Yes, this is easy, I'll handle it. But what about after this?"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "After this matter is over, the grudges between us will be wiped clean."

Wu San's spirits lifted, and he exclaimed happily, "Yes! Senior Brother Lu is so magnanimous, I admire you!"

He immediately turned and left.

Lu Ming watched his retreating figure and smiled faintly. As long as Wu San could withstand the Chen family's retaliation afterward and let him go, it wouldn't be a big deal.

He closed the courtyard gate and began cultivating again.

Not long after this cultivation session began, there was another knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

Immediately afterwards, Wei Jinlin's voice came: "Lu Ming, there's a letter for you."

Lu Ming opened the door with a puzzled look, took the letter, and found it was an invitation. When he opened the invitation, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

……

evening.

On the most bustling street in the south of the city, the Chiyang Tower stands tall and magnificent. Under the setting sun, most of the people entering and leaving the gate exude an air of grandeur, dressed in fine clothes.

Inside the private room on the second floor, a table of fine wine and dishes had been served, and the aroma of many delicious foods filled the air.

This is the private room where the Chen family received Lu Ming. However, the appointed time has arrived, and no important figures from the Chen family have come here.

Chen Jinyang was the only person in the entire private room.

After all, if you're going to go all the way, Chen Jinyang was worried that Lu Ming would notice something amiss, so he decided to actually recruit Lu Ming.

Except for the absence of any important figures from the Chen family, he was certain that everything he had done was perfect.

He only needs to stay here quietly, and before nightfall, he will hear the news of Lu Ming's death.

At that time, Chen Feng will have secured his position as a disciple of the Lingyun Sect ahead of time, and his status will rise sharply!

Chen Jinyang was almost immersed in his vision of the future when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching his private room.

A thought struck him: Had the messenger arrived?

He couldn't help but stand up immediately, walk quickly to the door, and open it.

"It really is you!"

Unexpectedly, standing outside the door was a burly man with a menacing expression, bloodshot eyes, and heavy breathing. He stared at him with wide eyes and shouted:

"So you're the one who wants to mediate the conflict between me and Lu Ming? You brat, let me see what you're made of!"

"Oh no, it's that madman Guo Zhengwei!"

When Chen Jinyang saw the man's face clearly, his expression changed drastically, and he was terrified.

Guo Zhengwei of Weiyuan Escort Agency has been mentally unstable lately since he was terrified by a demon and had his beloved son killed by the demon. He now hates everyone in the arena battle that day.

Lu Ming, in particular, changed the course of the arena battle, making this person hate him to the bone. He believed that if it weren't for Lu Ming, they wouldn't have been the only ones celebrating at the restaurant that day, and the outcome would have been different.

The forces that participated that day, the Red Serpent Gang and the disciples of the Blazing Flame Martial Arts School, have recently been harassed by the Weiyuan Escort Agency and are suffering greatly.

How did this madman end up here? How could he know what kind of mediation he was pretending to make with Lu Ming?

The problem is, he didn't mention Guo Zhengwei to Lu Ming at all!

"drink!"

Chen Jinyang was thrown into a panic, completely baffled, while Guo Zhengwei charged forward recklessly, his terrifying aura from the Great Perfection of Tendon Refining level pressing down on him.

Chen Jinyang was terrified. "It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!!!"

He hurriedly hid behind the table.

Boom!

With a loud crash, Guo Zhengwei shattered the table into pieces with one kick. Cups and plates crashed to the ground, making a series of clattering sounds, and juices spilled everywhere.

He took another step, striding in front of Chen Jinyang, and struck out with a palm, hitting Chen Jinyang squarely in the abdomen.

"Pfft!" Chen Jinyang coughed up a mouthful of blood, his whole body flying backward, crashing through the window with a bang, and falling onto the street.

He tried to struggle to get up, but saw Guo Zhengwei take the nine-ringed sword off his back, widen his eyes, and leap down from the second floor of Chiyang Tower, slashing down with the sword!

Overwhelmed with extreme depression and fear, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

Blood was slowly seeping out from beneath him.

"What happened?!"

"It's Chen Jinyang, a direct descendant of the Chen family! Who's so bold as to hit him?"

"Oh no! Run! It's Guo the Madman!"

When Chen Jinyang was thrown out of the street, people were still discussing it. But when Guo Zhengwei was thrown out, everyone was horrified and scattered.

Guo Zhengwei's strength is at the peak of the Tendon Refining stage. If the leaders of the top-tier forces in the city don't make a move, there are basically few others who can match him.

Such a person is mentally unstable and acts recklessly. If you get too close, you're practically asking for death!

"Die!" Guo Zhengwei roared in the air, his knife flashing an arc as he slashed down at Chen Jinyang on the ground.

"Clang~" At the critical moment, a sword's cry pierced the air, accurately striking the back of the nine-ringed sword.

Clang! Swords clashed, and Guo Zhengwei's figure swayed, actually being knocked back slightly in mid-air, his sword failing to strike.

"Who?! How dare you ruin my business!" Guo Zhengwei landed with his knife and opened his eyes to look.

A young man, sword in hand, with sharp eyes, was glaring at him with barely suppressed rage.

"Chief镖师 Guo, why did you ruin my plans for no reason?"

"You are, Shen Changfeng?" Guo Zhengwei recognized the man, his expression seemingly somewhat clear-headed, his brows furrowed as he asked:

"I received word that this person wants to mediate the conflict between me and Lu Ming. Hmph, overestimating himself!"

Shen Changfeng angrily retorted, "Mediate the conflict? Nonsense! Chen Jinyang is Chen Feng's man. He's here to lure Lu Ming out so I can kill him and avenge him!"

Guo Zhengwei suddenly produced a jade pendant, tossed it to Shen Changfeng, and shouted:

"This jade pendant is proof! If he wasn't genuinely trying to mediate, why would he give away his most personal keepsake?"

Shen Changfeng grabbed the jade pendant, his gaze sharpening.

"It is indeed a jade pendant from a direct descendant of the Chen family, I understand! He gave it to Lu Ming to put his mind at ease."

"However, since the jade pendant has appeared in your hand, it means that Lu Ming was behind it!"

"He had no intention of keeping the appointment at all. Instead, he sent the jade pendant to you as a token of his loyalty. He's using us as a tool to do his dirty work; he's toying with us!"

By the end, Shen Changfeng's face was extremely gloomy, with a hint of scorching heat.

After going through all that trouble, they were actually tricked by Lu Ming.

A hint of violence flashed in Guo Zhengwei's eyes as he roared, "Lu Ming won the arena, but the Blazing Flame Martial Arts School and the Crimson Serpent Gang lost! You killed my son, you are all sinners, sinners!!"

He shouted and charged toward Shen Changfeng.

Shen Changfeng sensed the terrifying aura emanating from Guo Zhengwei, and his expression changed slightly. He had not yet broken through and was currently only at the Tendon Refining stage, while Guo Zhengwei had reached the Great Perfection of Tendon Refining.

"This madman!" Seeing Guo Zhengwei charging at him recklessly, Shen Changfeng cursed under his breath, feeling extremely frustrated, and quickly retreated.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Guo Zhengwei's Six Harmonies Saber Technique was wide and sweeping. Although Shen Changfeng's swordsmanship was exquisite and he saw many flaws, the suppression of his cultivation level made it impossible for him to seize these flaws. He could only passively parry the attacks.

After being stabbed several times, Shen Changfeng felt a shock travel from his wrist to his heart, his abdomen churning, and he almost vomited blood.

Guo Zhengwei has been famous for a long time, is in his prime, and has an overwhelming presence!

Shen Changfeng didn't want to fight this madman for long and was just about to find an opportunity to break away when suddenly his gaze sharpened, and his eyes flashed with killing intent:

"Lu Ming?! How dare you show your face!"

"Huh?" Guo Zhengwei regained his senses a little when he heard the name "Lu Ming". He turned his head and saw that familiar face on the street.

Swish!Swish!

In an instant, the two martial arts masters who had just been exchanging blows simultaneously rushed towards Lu Ming.

Lu Ming stood calmly on the street, neither dodging nor avoiding the situation.

He carried no weapons, only a red invitation card with gold lettering in his hand.
