Under One Person, Mountain and Sea Painting Demon

"Yes, Lu Ci, why are you doing this? You have no relationship with that woman, why should you bear the crime of treason for her?" At the same time, someone else echoed.

"Damn it, what's wrong with an outsider? Did that outsider do any harm to my Lu family? Does she owe my Lu family anything? Did my Lu family get to where we are today by bullying others?" But the next second, Lu Ci struggled again and shouted unconvinced.

"Since I was little, that old man has been teaching me to maintain the family, protect the clan members, and maintain the family's status and pride. I would like to ask him, now what he has done with the entire Lu family, is it the pride of our Lu family?"

"Shut up! You are no longer a member of the Lu family. You have no right to speak now!" Hearing his words, the anger of the head of the Lu family, which had just subsided a little, rose up again, and he shouted angrily.

"I won't shut up. Whether I am a member of the Lu family is determined by the blood in my body and my heart. It's not up to you to decide!" Lu Ci did not give in at all.

"In my opinion, your behavior of disregarding the family honor, only caring about interests, and destroying humanity will really drag the Lu family into the abyss. You are the real treason!"

"Can you say that again!"

"Just say it!"

boom! ! !

The next second, a lot of Qi energy suddenly burst out from under Lu Ci's body. This was the energy he injected into the ground before being suppressed, and it took effect at this moment.

In an instant, the clansmen who were suppressing him were caught off guard and were shaken to the side. He broke free instantly, wrapped his hands with energy, and jumped to the side of Duanmu Ying.

Bang bang bang bang bang!

No matter what, he is still the number one of the Lu family's generation, and is also one of the best among the younger generation in the entire martial arts world. Although he is not as good as his father, he has no problem dealing with these clansmen.

In the blink of an eye, all the tribesmen who were holding Duanmu Ying were repelled by him. He then protected Duanmu Ying behind him with a vigilant look on his face.

"Go away quickly, I'll block this place!" He didn't turn around, but just said in a deep voice.

"This... why are you doing this?" Not only the Lu family, but even Duanmu Ying was very puzzled. She and Lu Ci met by chance, so how could he do this?

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not doing this for you, but for the Lu family. The empire built by our ancestors and the pride and glory passed down from generation to generation in the Lu family must not be destroyed in the hands of this old man!" Lu Ci responded.

"You have sworn brotherhood with Wu Gensheng, but you said you are not 'Quan Xing'. You do have the ultimate magic, but the facts have proven that my Lu family has no chance of being with you, so there is no reason for the Lu family to keep you locked up. It's that simple!"

Then, facing the people from the Lu family who were slowly gathering around him, the Qi in his body completely exploded, and the Qi in his hands condensed and entangled, emitting a dazzling blue light.

"Please leave quickly, I won't be able to take care of you in a while, and I also have to clean up the house and put down the rebellion for the Lu family!"

"Oh, good, good, good, what a good idea to 'clean up the house and quell the rebellion for the Lu family'!" Upon hearing these words, the face of the head of the Lu family completely sank, and the last trace of worry in his eyes also disappeared.

In his eyes, Lu Ci is already hopeless. No matter how talented or capable he is, if he cannot be of one mind with the Lu family, he will be useless and will only be an ungrateful person who can never be tamed!

"Heh... I always think, how great it would have been if you were the one who died. And every time I think about it, I always feel ashamed. Now it seems ridiculous."

"The facts have proven that there is nothing wrong with my idea. I and the entire Lu family have raised you for nearly thirty years, but in the end, you are still worse than an outsider. It seems that what the outsiders said is right. I did raise a 'madman', ah no... a 'mad dog', otherwise, why would you bite people randomly?"

"In that case, there is nothing to say. Your name is still on the Lu family's genealogy, so the family rules still apply..."

"The first rule of the Lu family is 'Anyone who betrays the family will be expelled from the family tree and killed without mercy'. Now, let me personally execute it. This can be regarded as atonement for the fact that I have cultivated a bastard like you for the family for so many years!"

As soon as he finished speaking, blue energy began to rise from the body of the Lu family's patriarch, as deep as the ocean and extremely terrifying.

As the absolute number one person in the Lu family besides the elders, he also completely exploded his strength. Judging from the murderous intent in his eyes and around his body, he really wanted to kill!

"bring it on!"

However, facing his father and his unrivaled power, there was no fear in Lu Ci's eyes. Instead, his face was calm. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Apart from anything else, he had long disliked this old man. When the eldest brother was around, it was still okay and there could be a balance. But ever since the eldest brother passed away, all the confusion and dissatisfaction had accumulated... until now!

Of course, Lu Ci could see that he might really die today, but he did not regret it. This was his own choice. He finally spoke out his thoughts, and it was really refreshing!

Just as he said, in his heart, he did not betray the Lu family, nor did he let down the ancestors of the Lu family. At the same time, he believed that if his brother were still alive, he would definitely do the same!

Just like that, without saying anything more, Lu Ci moved, rushed towards his father, raised his fist...

But just then...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

A howl suddenly came from behind him. It came from Duanmu Ying, which made him stop in his tracks.

next second...

Bang!

A muffled sound was heard, and he felt his whole body go numb, followed by an indescribable pain, as if his body was shattered into pieces.

In an instant, his consciousness was overwhelmed by the intense pain, his eyelids suddenly fluttered, and he lost consciousness...

However, before his consciousness completely went into chaos, he vaguely saw the figure of a tribesman passing by him, shouting:

"Oh no, her water seems to have broken, call the midwife quickly, she's about to give birth!"

Let me state a premise here. I personally believe that Duanmu Ying had just obtained the "Shuangquan Hands" at that time, and his abilities had not yet been developed. He definitely could not be as abnormal as Qu Tong, and he probably could not have done many things.

Otherwise, with her "double-handed" performance, she should be the only person besides Gu Jiting who is basically impossible to be caught, so the situation at that time and the limitations she encountered can all be imagined and explored!

At the same time, regarding Lu Ci, in my opinion he has never been a bad person and has never done anything truly evil.

Although he asked Zhang Chulan to hand over the "Qi Body Source" during the Luotian Grand Ceremony, he did not really force him. It was more like he was putting on a show for Wang Ai. Otherwise, with Lu Gong's attainments in the "Soul-Ming Technique", it was impossible for him to be fooled by Zhang Chulan's lie.

At the meeting to "try" the old Heavenly Master, he was also the first to jump out and oppose the abolition of the old Heavenly Master.

At the same time, based on his memories of his youth and his performance in the Rusty Iron chapter, I feel that he was already prepared to become the "knife" of the Lu family, but because of the death of his eldest brother, he had no choice but to prepare to take up the banner.

His personality is crazy and rebellious, but one can always see a kind of "willful" brilliance in him, so I interpret him in this way and fill in the gaps in this way!

Afterwards, the head of the Lu family did not kill Lu Ci, but destroyed his meridians and threw him into a dungeon.

At the same time, because Duanmu Ying gave birth prematurely, the Lu family immediately arranged for someone to deliver the baby and carried her into an empty room in the village.

After half a day's effort, Duanmu Ying gave birth successfully to a daughter. Thanks to timely treatment, both mother and daughter are safe.

Because of this, the Lu family has another bargaining chip in their hands, which makes them full of confidence and thinks that this will definitely make Duanmu Ying obedient!

And because she had just given birth and was too weak, in order to prevent Duanmu Ying from being killed, the Lu family specially prepared a room and sent people to guard it day and night to prevent her from escaping.

Of course, they also knew that as long as they had their daughter in their hands, she would not be able to escape, so they did not lock her up anymore, but allowed her to move freely in the room and recover faster.

However, what the Lu family did not expect was that the first thing Duanmu Ying did after waking up, in addition to asking to see her daughter, was to ask about Lu Ci's situation.

As a doctor with a kind heart and great ambition who hopes to cure all diseases in the world, she naturally does not want to see Lu Ci sacrifice because of her, so she became anxious.

After seeing her daughter and confirming that she was safe, and learning that Lu Ci was not dead but just his meridians were damaged, she breathed a sigh of relief and put her mind at ease.

For a period of time afterwards, she began to rest peacefully. She visited her daughter and asked about Lu Ci's situation at a fixed time every day. That was her daily routine.

Until a month later...

Because the Lu family was willing to invest and Duanmu Ying knew how to take care of herself, her body finally recovered and the Qi in her body was restored to normal.

It was at this time that she finally proposed the idea of ​​compromise to the head of the Lu family. She knew that otherwise the Lu family would not let her and her daughter go. In order to obtain the Eight Wonders, they had really reached a point of madness!

……

……

That afternoon, in the main house of the Lu family.

"You mean, in order to obtain the 'Double Hands', in addition to having a special physique yourself, you can only obtain its bloodline by combining with a special physique and producing offspring, and then convert it into a hidden innate supernatural power?" After hearing Duanmu Ying's words, the head of the Lu family and a group of elders frowned.

"That's right. Because the physique that can practice 'Double Complete Hands' is extremely rare and rarely seen in the world, we can only start from the genetics aspect, which happens to be the topic I studied when I was studying abroad." Duanmu Ying nodded calmly.

"Um……"

"So, what you mean is that you are willing to sacrifice yourself?" After pondering for a moment, everyone in the Lu family understood and their eyes suddenly became strange.

Although they don’t understand what genes and heredity are, they understand that these things can only be obtained by having children!

"I don't seem to have a choice, and it's obvious that if I don't let you get the 'Shuangquan Hands', my daughter and I will no longer be free, right?" Duanmu Ying nodded.

"However, I have a condition. The person I marry must be chosen by me, and as long as it is successful, the person I marry must be designated as the future head of the Lu family. At the same time, I must be free. Is there a problem?"

"Hmm? I can understand giving you your freedom, but what does the matter of the head of my Lu family have to do with you...ah!"

At this time, a clan elder on the side was about to ask a question, but he suddenly realized who Duan Muying wanted to choose. He couldn't help but look at the head of the family with a stunned expression.

"Do you want to choose Lu Ci?"

The head of the Lu family heard this and his eyes narrowed. He could see what she was thinking and immediately refused, "That's impossible. He is no longer a member of my Lu family!"

"But he does have the blood of the Lu family flowing in his body. This is an irrefutable fact. Besides, I also have my own pride. Only I can decide who to give my body to. If you disagree, then please do as you please." Duanmu Ying replied calmly.

"Oh? Aren't you afraid..."

"What are you afraid of? My daughter? How do you know that I haven't planted some tricks on her these days to prevent her from being bullied by you in the future? Your understanding of the 'Shuangquan Hands'... is still too superficial." She suddenly laughed.

"I'm telling you, I have only this one condition. If you don't agree, I will commit suicide now, and my daughter will be buried with me. If she is destined to become your Lu family's forbidden delicacy in the future, it's better for her to die now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "puff" sound, and a big crack suddenly appeared on Duanmu Ying's neck. Blood spurted out suddenly, shocking everyone in the Lu family.

"..."

"I understand. Let's do as you say." The head of the Lu family was silent for a moment and finally chose to compromise.

"But I also have a condition. Didn't you say that the 'Shuangquan Hand' can erase a person's memory to a certain extent? After you and Lu Ci are together, I need you to heal his brain and make him forget all his past madness and resentment!"

"Haha, I think he is very normal, at least more normal than you!" Duanmu Ying couldn't help but sneer while healing his neck when he heard it.

"Of course, I know what you want. Isn't it just a patriarch who is willing to think about the Lu family wholeheartedly? I can promise you, so don't worry!"

At the same time, she couldn't help but smile in her heart. The ability of "Shuangquan Hands" is not just to simply delete memories, it can also do more complicated things, but she didn't tell them...

However, she couldn't fully master these abilities yet, and what she could do was very limited, but it was definitely enough to meet their requirements, but she didn't intend to really do so.

Just as she said, she felt that Lu Ci was very normal. A normal person's brain did not need treatment. Instead, it was these guys in front of her who needed treatment.

This is also the reason why she chose Lu Ci. He is the only guy in the entire Lu family whom she looks up to. He is also the fundamental medicine to cure the Lu family's illness. Only by choosing him can her daughter really have a chance of survival!

That's right, Duanmuying never thought that if she really gave the Lu family "both hands", they would let her go.

On the contrary, once they succeed, they will exploit themselves and even their daughter even more ruthlessly, squeezing the value of themselves and their daughter to the extreme.

In this case, she naturally had to respond, and Lu Ci's performance this time gave her a glimmer of opportunity.

Therefore, after careful consideration, she resolutely put forward the request. This was the only way she could take at the moment, no other choice!

……

……

In this way, the Lu family and Duanmu Ying reached an agreement, and immediately released Lu Ci from the dungeon and let Duanmu Ying heal him.

After that, their marriage was put on the agenda. In this era when monogamy was not restricted, no one would say anything.

But when Lu Ci woke up and learned that her marriage to Duanmu Ying was imminent, she immediately expressed her opposition and rebelled.

But this resistance did not last long. One afternoon, after Duanmu Ying went to his house and had a detailed talk with him, he agreed.

As for what they said, it was actually very simple. Duanmu Ying hoped that Lu Ci could save herself and her daughter...

Faced with her begging, Lu Ci naturally agreed. He understood that under the current circumstances, he could only truly help her and her daughter by complying with the conditions she had agreed upon and becoming the next head of the family!

Of course, he was not only doing this for them, but also for the entire Lu family and for himself. Duanmu Ying's words touched him: "The Lu family is sick!"

This made him wonder:

If the eldest brother were still alive, what would he choose?

The answer is naturally self-evident.

Once upon a time, he had the protection of his eldest brother. He only needed to practice peacefully and sharpen his edge so that he could become the most handy blade in his eldest brother's hand and protect the Lu family for a hundred years.

But after his elder brother left, he had to try to transform from a knife holder to a knife wielder. However, he was not good at it in the past and could not learn from his elder brother. But now it is different. With the appearance of Duanmu Ying, a path of knife wielding that belongs to him has gradually become clear!

So...

A month later, Lu Ci and Duanmu Ying officially got married. Their wedding night was not sweet. The two got together with their own purposes.

After this, Lu Ci regained his identity and status in the family, and his power was further increased. He was officially trained as the head of the family.

A year later, Duanmu Ying successfully gave birth to two sons, Lu Zhong and Lu Xiao. The next year, she gave birth to a boy and a girl, named Lu Ping and Lu Yi.

It was not until seven years later, when Lu Zhong grew to be eight years old and awakened for the first time the ability to extract other people's memories, similar to "Shuangquan Hands and Blue Hands", that the Lu family finally confirmed that "Shuangquan Hands" had been successfully integrated into the Lu family bloodline of Lu Ci's lineage.

Although she only had "blue hands" at the beginning, Duanmuying's comprehensive examination revealed that as the bloodline is passed from generation to generation, the genetic factors belonging to "double hands" will gradually appear. If there is another gifted person, Future generations have the possibility of awakening the "Red Hand"!

Up to this point, Duanmu Ying had fulfilled the conditions that he promised to the Lu family, and at this time, Lu Ci had also replaced his father and began to take full power.
