Zhao Dahai squinted, his expression growing colder, "Tell me, what exactly happened!"
"The Young Master took a fancy to a woman in Niutian Village and went to Niutou Village. He returned empty-handed because there is an immortal in Niutou Village!"
Steward Zhao spoke, "The Young Master originally intended to inform you of this matter, so you could personally intervene."
"If that is truly the case, why would that person intervene?"
Bai Yu asked curiously, "Isn't marriage a perfectly normal matter!"
"This..."
Steward Zhao was slightly embarrassed. Bai Yu might not know that Zhao Dalei's intention was not marriage, but rather to abduct a commoner. As a steward of the Zhao family, he naturally would not speak much about it.
"Gather everyone from the Zhao family. We're going to Niutian Village!"
Zhao Dahai's expression was icy, "I want to see how they explain themselves to me."
Steward Zhao nodded solemnly and then went to gather the Zhao family members.
Not long after, Zhao Dahai and the others arrived at Niutian Village, looking imposing and clearly not friendly.
Jiang Dahe walked forward first, "Everyone, may I ask what brings you here?"
"Where is that person?"
Zhao Dahai's expression was cold, "To dare lay hands on someone from my Zhao family, they truly have a death wish."
"Immortal Zhao, have you made a mistake?"
Jiang Dahe quickly said, "Niutian Village is just an ordinary village, how could we dare to be enemies with the Zhao family!"
"If you dare not, then call that person out!"
Zhao Dahai said coldly, "Otherwise, the entire Niutian Village will pay the price for my brother's death!"
The villagers of Niutian Village were startled but helpless. Zhao Dahai's words instilled some fear in them.
"Immortal Lu has already left!"
The village elder spoke, "The death of the Zhao family's eldest young master has nothing to do with Immortal Lu. Please, Immortal Zhao, see clearly!"
"You still dare to spout nonsense!"
Zhao Dahai unleashed a punch, and the village elder was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.
"Village Elder!"
The villagers of Niutian Village cried out, their eyes filled with anger. They had never expected Zhao Dahai to be so reckless, acting without even trying to understand the situation.
How could the elderly village elder withstand such an ordeal?
"Old man, don't think that just because you are ordinary people I will let you off!"
Zhao Dahai said coldly, "If that person doesn't show up, I will destroy Niutian Village first, and then tear him limb from limb!"
The village elder, gravely injured, said, "Everything I have said is true. I have no intention of deceiving you!"
"Hmph! I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin!" Su Dan Novel Network
Zhao Dahai chuckled coldly and prepared to strike again.
"Enough!"
Bai Yu spoke, "Junior Brother Zhao, how can you do such a thing? Regardless, you are a spiritual practitioner, how can you treat ordinary people like this!"
"Senior Sister Bai Yu, this matter has nothing to do with you. You don't need to say anything!"
Zhao Dahai said directly, "My brother died tragically. I must seek justice for him!"
Bai Yu frowned, "I know you want justice, but they are defenseless. They could not possibly be the murderers of your brother!"
Zhao Dahai frowned slightly, ceasing his move. He looked back at the villagers of Niutian Village, "I'll give you one more chance. If you don't seize it, you should know the consequences!"
The people of Niutian Village shook their heads, "We really don't know, we truly don't know!"
"Steward Zhao, send people to find him for me!"
Zhao Dahai said coldly, "Make sure you find him. Also, if he is not found within three days, everyone in Niutian Village will be buried with him!"
Everyone present was terrified but didn't know what to do. They knew very well that Zhao Dahai's actions indicated he was furious.
Bai Yu stood to the side, frowning deeply. As a disciple of the Clear Water Sect, he possessed a sense of righteousness. Zhao Dahai's actions made him feel helpless.
However, regardless of anything else, Zhao Dalei had died unjustly, and Zhao Dahai's actions were understandable.
"What do we do now!"
The villagers of Niutian Village looked at each other, a sense of despair creeping in. Offending an immortal was something they could not bear.
At this moment, Jiang Dahe stepped forward, "This matter has nothing to do with the rest of the village. I hope Young Master Zhao can see clearly. If you truly want to vent your anger, let it all fall on me! After all, I brought Immortal Lu here!"
"Quite a bold statement!"
Zhao Dahai unleashed a palm strike, and Jiang Dahe was forcefully pushed back, his face turning even paler, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"If the murderer of my brother is not found, none of you will escape!"
Zhao Dahai's expression was chilling. He stood by the side. As a disciple of the Clear Water Sect, how could he stand by when his family was harmed?
Bai Yu stood not far away, watching silently, unwilling to intervene. After all, he could not meddle too much in this matter.
"What kind of skill is it to bully the weak!"
Just then, a voice rang out. Lu Fan swaggered into Niutian Village, looking towards Zhao Dahai with considerable displeasure.
"You are that Immortal Lu?"
Zhao Dahai glanced at him, "You have quite a bit of nerve, daring to lay hands on my elder brother. Don't you know I am a disciple of the Clear Water Sect!"
"And so what?"
Lu Fan squinted his eyes, "Does being a cultivator allow you to do whatever you please, treating human lives like grass?"
"In the face of absolute strength, anything else is insignificant!"
Zhao Dahai said coldly, "However, I am surprised that you would willingly come here to die for them!"
"I didn't come here to die."
Lu Fan smiled faintly, "Since I dare to stand here, I have the capital to do so!"
"Hahaha..."
Zhao Dahai burst into laughter, "Within the entire Clear Water Town, among the younger generation, there are not many whose talent surpasses mine. You have only just stepped into the immortal path, yet you dare to utter such arrogant words!"
"Perhaps it is you who has just entered the immortal path!"
Lu Fan shrugged, "I can give you a chance. Leave Niutian Village now and never come here to cause trouble again. I can spare your life!"
Zhao Dahai stood stunned, finding it incredibly amusing. He, who had always been arrogant, could not tolerate such words.
"Immortal Lu, hurry and leave!"
Jiang Dahe urged, "He is a disciple of the Clear Water Sect. We can't fight him!"
"You don't need to worry!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, "As I said before, I promised to protect Niutian Village's peace, and I will not go back on my word. If anyone dares to harm Niutian Village, I will make them suffer the consequences!"
The villagers of Niutian Village were grateful but also filled with worry. They trusted Lu Fan's character, but this was not the time to discuss character.
"Very good, very good, a true savior!"
Zhao Dahai laughed in anger. As the young master of the Zhao family and a closed-door disciple of the Clear Water Sect, he had never been treated like this before.
