One person: After starting with the academic atmosphere, I'll take down Xia He!

Ma Long extended a warm invitation, sincerely inviting the Lü family members to come in for tea.

Lu Xiao was embarrassed. His group had made a mistake, and he was too ashamed to go in for tea.

"Young Master Long!"

We've made a complete fool of ourselves. If we go in and bother them again, the old man will scold us to death when we get back!

"Once you send Lü Liang out, we'll immediately return to report. This time, I'm afraid I'll be punished too!"

Ma Long nodded, secretly chuckling to himself: 'The Lü family has a really strong family tradition!'

Uh... okay!

I won't force you. Wang Ye, go and carry Lü Liang out and hand him over to the Lü family."

Wang agreed and went to carry Lü Liang out.

"Bring him out? What happened to Lü Liang?"

Lu Xiao was taken aback. How could a living person use the word "lift"?

"Hey, it's nothing!"

As I just said, I had barely caught Lü Liang when you arrived.

So he's still tied up!

Ma Long explained, and Lü Xiao nodded. The group waited there.

Before long, Lü Liang, bound hand and foot, was brought out.

At this moment, Lü Liang's face was already bruised and swollen, and he cursed loudly: "Ma Long!"

I originally thought your Salvation Palace was quite good, so I came to seek refuge with you!

I never expected you to be such a cowardly bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong, actually sending me away!

Seeing this, Ma Long stepped forward and slapped Lü Liang hard across the face with two large, hard slaps.

"Pah, pah!"

"Damn it, I didn't have a chance to hit you earlier!"

You little brat, you still dare to be so arrogant? I hate people who would harm their own sisters the most.

I fucking have to…

Ma Long didn't voice his intention to kill Lü Liang, but he glanced at Lü Xiao beside him, as if asking for his opinion.

Lu Xiao remained indifferent, and the Lu family members behind him showed no aversion whatsoever; in fact, they were happy to watch Lu Liang get beaten up.

"Young Master Long!"

Don't worry about us, just fight freely!

Even if they had to stomp off one of his hands, we wouldn't say a word against it!

"As long as we spare his life, we can go back and report to the old master!"

Lu Xiao, Lu Liang's grandfather, spoke with a tone of indifference tinged with disgust, as if he loathed Lu Liang to the core.

"Yes, Young Master Long, please hit him hard!"

"That guy is despicable! After the master finishes his interrogation, we'll definitely have to teach him a lesson!"

Lu Gong, Lu Liang's older brother, chimed in from the side, his expression one of gritted teeth, as if he wanted to devour Lu Liang whole.

Ma Long's heart skipped a beat: 'The Lü family is ruthless!'

Whether Lü Liang will survive is hard to say!

"Hehe, I was just angry, so I just hit him a couple of times."

"After all, Lü Liang is a member of your Lü family, so I can't punish him too harshly!"

Ma Long brought the conversation back on track, shaking the blood off his hands.

Lu Gong, with his keen eye, immediately took out a silk handkerchief from his chest and handed it over.

"Young Master Long, please use mine!"

Smooth and gentle on the skin!

Ma Long thanked him verbally and, without being polite, picked it up and started wiping.

Hmph! This Lü Gong seems to be quite a character!

The Lü family doesn't tolerate idlers!

Even Lü Xiaoliu is no ordinary person!

Honestly, the handkerchief was really useful; Marlon handed it back to him after he finished using it.

"Young Master Long!"

In that case, let's go back and report!

The old man will definitely come to pay a visit once he finds out!

Once Lü Xiao saw that things were mostly settled, he began leading the team back home.

More than a hundred people arrived safely.

When they left, each person carried one on their back, and even Lü Xiao carried his son Lü Ping on his back.

The scene was somewhat comical.

Ma Long watched as the Lü family members slowly walked away.

"Junior Uncle, you're so mean!"

You're really going to rip people off like this!

Wang Ye couldn't stand it anymore; the Lü family, more than a hundred people, were being played like puppets.

"A trap? What kind of talk is that!"

"He should thank us!" Malone curled his lip dismissively.

A muffled voice came from afar: "Young Master Long, thank you!"

"Look at the Lü family, they know how to be grateful."

They had to come and thank them specifically before they would be satisfied!

……

The person had really disappeared without a trace, so Ma Long and the other two went back to rest.

"Damn it, I'm exhausted!"

Wang Ye plopped down on the sofa, opened a bottle of soda, and enjoyed it immensely.

"Hehe, you were the biggest slacker this time!"

How dare you say that!

"Sigh, Junior Uncle, I'm just doing my part, okay?"

"I deserve a lot of credit for Bao'er's ability to unleash her ultimate move!"

"Get out of here! Did you teach me how to ejaculate so forcefully?!"

"Uh~ No no no!"

I didn't teach Bao'er that!

"Speaking of which, Junior Uncle, what's the next step?"

You've fooled these hundred or so people, surely Lü Ci can see through it?

What if he really goes crazy?

Wang Ye suddenly asked seriously.

"He dares!

I gave Lü Liang to him, so he has to thank me!

How dare they act so wildly! Isn't this thanks to Master Lingyu?

"Let's move to Longhu Mountain and build our base camp. Let's see who dares to surround my Salvation Palace then!"

Ma Long said with a smile, but Zhang Lingyu was displeased.

“No way!

The Celestial Master's Mansion on Mount Longhu is already small enough; it can't accommodate all of us.

"Uh~ You really don't understand jokes!"

……

Lüjia Village!

More than fifty people carried more than fifty people back, and they were somewhat disheveled.

Upon seeing this, Lü Ci frowned, squinted his remaining eye to examine him, and immediately took a liking to Lü Liang.

Most of my dissatisfaction disappeared; even if someone got injured, it was worth it to complete the mission.

"Old Master!"

"Father! We have fulfilled our mission and brought Lü Liang back!"

The group of over fifty people who were aware of the situation immediately knelt down to pay their respects to Lü Ci. They were all feeling uneasy, knowing that although they had accomplished their mission, they had also lost face.

Lu Ci was still unaware of the situation: "Lu Zhong, have your men thoroughly investigate his memories for me."

Don't overlook even the slightest clue!

The old man behind Lü Ci agreed and led Lü Liang down.

"Lu Xiao, tell me what happened!"

Half of us are injured!

Lu Xiao nervously recounted what had happened.

Not long after, Lü Zhong also returned.

"Father, what my second brother said is absolutely true."

According to Lü Liang's memory, he went to Ma Long out of desperation and with a "let's give it a try" attitude.

But Marlon hated him deeply, angrily accusing him of murdering his sister and beating him up.

Just as they were about to arrest him and send him to our Lü family, his Salvation Palace was surrounded by our people.

He happened to run into Xiao Liuzi when he went out. Seeing that Ma Long only had three people, Xiao Liuzi spoke rudely and started fighting with Ma Long without explaining his purpose.

Lu Ping then went to help, but Ma Long's methods were too strange, summoning wind and rain, and causing lightning and thunder.

No matter how they explained, Malone couldn't understand, and he was beaten seriously without even realizing it.

Then his second brother arrived and explained what had happened. Ma Long was shocked to learn that it was all a misunderstanding.

He believed that Xiao Liuzi and his men had gone to rescue Lü Liang.

After his second brother apologized to him, the man readily handed over Lü Liang.

And they even invited us in for tea to treat our injuries!
