Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

Chapter 472 Marriage Contract, Internal Strife

"No."

However, in response to Lu Feng's reminder, Lu Xiaoxiang shook her head slightly, a complex look flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Lu Feng, thank you for your kindness, but my return to the Lu family this time is only to send that old man Lu Jinyuan off on his final journey. I have no intention of fighting or killing, and I have absolutely no interest in the position of family head..."

Lu Xiaoxiang's tone still carried a mix of emotions.

Although she and her biological father, Lu Jinyuan, had long since broken ties, and her return home this time was merely to completely settle their old grudges, she had still grown up in the Lu family, and there was also the connection with her former bodyguard, Old Song.

Therefore, unless she is forced into a desperate situation, Lu Xiaoxiang will not take the initiative to act.

"In that case, I will not interfere in Miss Lu's family affairs. I will leave everything to you."

Seeing this, Lu Feng did not insist, but instead wisely stepped aside.

After all, his reason for accompanying Lu Xiaoxiang back to the Lu family in Nanyue Kingdom was solely out of friendship and to protect her personal safety.

As for Lu Xiaoxiang's future plans, that's entirely up to her personal wishes, and Lu Feng will not interfere.

Moreover, Lu Feng was also curious about what Lu Feng and the others on the other side were up to, and why they were targeting Lu Xiaoxiang so much.

After all, Lu Xiaoxiang's return to the family this time was not for the purpose of vying for power and profit, and she had no interest in the position of family head. Logically speaking, the former posed almost no threat to Lu Feng and the others.

Even so, Lu Feng and his group still refused to let Lu Xiaoxiang go, even calling her an unfilial descendant, which clearly indicated that there was something fishy going on and that they were plotting something sinister!

"Brother Feng, I'm a little late, you won't mind, will you?"

Above the eaves, Lu Lin leaped again, his body moving like a nimble swallow, landing steadily beside Lu Feng, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Second brother, Lu Xiaoxiang is someone personally requested by the young master of the Jin family. What do you mean by this? Do you intend to disregard the family's interests and go against the young master of the Jin family?"

Faced with Lu Lin's sudden appearance, Lu Feng disregarded Lu Xiaoxiang beside him and turned to look at the man in front of him, speaking in a meaningful tone that subtly contained a hint of threat.

"Brother Feng, you flatter me. Of course, that's not what I meant."

Sensing the underlying threat in the other's words, Lu Lin remained unfazed, only changing the subject with a low, somber tone, "However, before the young master of the Jin family left, he only issued an engagement letter, without setting a specific wedding date. Furthermore, with the patriarch currently in seclusion, I believe this matter should not be handled so hastily and should be considered more carefully..."

After speaking, Lu Lin also glanced at Lu Feng beside him. His tone remained calm, clearly indicating that he did not take the other party's threat to heart.

After all, as the second elder of the Lu family, his power, status, and personal strength were no less than those of the first elder, Lu Feng.

Now that the Lu family patriarch Lu Jinyuan has been in seclusion for a long time, it is a golden opportunity for the second elder Lu Lin. He will naturally not give up the opportunity to compete for the position of patriarch, nor will he back down or admit defeat because of a few threats from the first elder Lu Feng.

"Damn it! This bastard really came here to trip me up...!"

Faced with Lu Lin's reminder, Lu Feng couldn't help but frown, his brows furrowing into a deep frown, while his heart burned with anger.

Because he knew very well that Lu Lin's actions, ostensibly to be cautious, were actually an attempt to trip him up and prevent him from taking this opportunity to curry favor with the young master of the Jin family.

After all, once he captures Lu Xiaoxiang alive and presents her to the young master of the Jin family, then Lu Lin and the others will be out of the picture, and the position of family head will be his for the taking!

Therefore, Lu Lin certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch his goal succeed.

This is also why Lu Lin suddenly intervened to stop Lu Feng. The other party protected Lu Xiaoxiang this time not out of any consideration for the relationship between uncle and nephew, but simply for naked personal gain!

"My two elder brothers, now that my niece Xiaoxiang has returned to the family, why didn't you inform your younger brother? This is treating me like an outsider..."

"Hehe, Third Brother is right. I haven't seen my niece Xiaoxiang for a long time, and I miss her very much..."

Just as Lu Feng and Lu Lin were locked in a power struggle, a faint, languid laugh came from afar.

Swish!Swish!

The next moment, two aged figures suddenly appeared out of thin air and landed on the ground. They both looked calm and collected, and quietly surveyed the crowd. They were none other than Lu Huo, the third elder of the Lu family, and Lu Shan, the fourth elder of the Lu family, who was also the weakest in strength.

"Look! It's the Third Elder...!"

"Not only the Third Elder, but even the Fourth Elder, who was away on a mission, has returned ahead of schedule. What big day has this happened today...?"

"Who knows! Besides, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder seem to be after the young lady as well. Things don't seem so simple..."

Inside the Lu family mansion, the servants and guards present were all shocked to see the four elders suddenly gathered together. They then began to discuss among themselves, and the atmosphere at the scene became even more heated.

After all, these servants were lucky to even see a female guest on ordinary days, let alone have all four elders gathered together. This scene was practically a sign of their ancestors' graves emitting auspicious smoke!

"Could it be that these two bastards also want to meddle in the position of family head?"

Seeing that the Third Elder Lu Huo and the Fourth Elder Lu Shan had jumped out, Lu Feng's brows furrowed and his face became even more unpleasant.

Because the Second Elder Lu Lin alone was enough to give him a headache, and now the Third Elder Lu Huo and the Fourth Elder Lu Shan, two troublemakers, have emerged, making it even more difficult for him to ascend to the position of family head in the future!

"These damned bastards! They're all going against me...!"

"If it weren't for the fact that we are all descendants of the Lu family, I would have already... Hmph!"

Thinking of this, a barely perceptible murderous aura flashed in Lu Feng's eyes, but he did not lash out on the spot. Instead, he slowly suppressed the murderous aura, as if he felt that now was not a good time to completely tear off the mask of civility.

"Eighth level of the Spirit Soul Realm, and there's also the weakest one at the seventh level? Why did all these old guys suddenly come out? Could it be that they're also after Miss Lu?"

At this moment, seeing the four elders of the Lu family appear one after another, Lu Feng, who was watching the show from the side, also raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a hint of curiosity.
