This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

They were initially worrying about how Lu Qingshan, who stood up for them, would face the consequences, feeling very panicked.

Now, through the reactions and behaviors of the crowd, they—despite their young age—instinctively realized that Lu Qingshan was extremely powerful and feared by many.

This allowed them to see a glimmer of hope for survival, and a trace of hope flashed in their tear-filled eyes.

But they were still trembling, not daring to say much.

"Give me a chance?" Lu Qingshan raised his eyebrows, showing no gratitude and adopting a cold and arrogant demeanor. "What, do you expect me to thank you?"

"Apologize? Impossible! When Qing Ge takes action, there's no talk of apologizing. Am I supposed to be afraid of you?"

The group was stunned and dumbfounded.

Lu Qingshan's dominance was completely beyond their expectations.

Even Hei Wu had shown submission, but Qing Ge wouldn't make the slightest concession?

"Qing Ge, this is not the Sen Luo King Realm, this is Jian Luo King City. You're being too arrogant!" Finally, a spirit being shouted.

That was a lithe spirit being, familiar with Hei Wu, and spoke on his behalf.

He was reminding Lu Qingshan that in the Sen Luo King Realm, Qing Ge was the offspring of Ao Ren Demon Venerable, with a supreme status that allowed him to be unrestrained.

But in Jian Luo King City, he was merely a son-in-law of the Shi Wu lineage. He needed to recognize the situation and learn to be restrained.

Lu Qingshan's gaze was icy, and he replied indifferently:

"My arrogance never stems from my identity but from the sword in my hand."

"Hei Wu, I don't care what you do in private, but to commit the act of eating children alive in front of me?

I can't stand it, and neither can my sword!" His voice grew louder, intimidating.

The spirits who were initially watching the drama now exchanged glances.

In each other's eyes, they saw intense fear and concern.

This Qing Ge truly disregarded the rules and was extremely arrogant.

No matter who offended him—even if they had little to do with him—he would bare his fangs.

No wonder he would ruthlessly kill thirteen Demon Generals of the Royal City and make outrageous remarks about Ling Wu's third eye!

He was truly as venomous and mad as a snake, with a twisted mind.

He instilled hatred.

But he happened to have the arrogance and strength to back it up.

This was the most detestable part.

This kind of person was too terrifying and best left unprovoked, best not even befriend lightly.

They thought this way.

However, now they just waited to see how this matter would conclude.

No one had any intention of stepping in, including the spirit who had spoken for Hei Wu earlier, who also retreated.

They already understood that with Qing Ge's stubborn and unyielding temperament, how this would end was out of their hands.

It all depended on what Lord Chi Li and Hei Wu thought.

"Qing Ge, you're going too far!" Hei Wu's face turned alternating shades of blue and white.

He was indeed apprehensive of Qing Ge.

But now, in front of everyone, Qing Ge was giving him no face, humiliating him. If he didn't respond, how could he carry on in Jian Luo King City in the future?

The Royal City was large, but some circles were very small.

He believed that if he caved in today, word would quickly spread.

He shouted loudly, clenching his fists, with black demonic light flickering on them, preparing to strike like a thunderbolt.

Lu Qingshan was unfazed, the Black Blood Sword in his hand flickering with a dim gold light, ready to unleash.

"Enough!" At this moment, Chi Li suddenly shouted, his expression grim. "Are you two really planning to fight at my Red Fruit Feast, ruining it?"

"Lord Chi Li, Qing Ge has no such intention." Lu Qingshan responded quickly, the dim gold light on the Black Blood Sword vanishing.

Hei Wu had no choice but to lower his fists as well.

"That's enough. You two can settle your grievances in private; I don't care.

But the Red Fruit Feast is about to start, and no more disputes are allowed, or you will be showing disrespect to me." Chi Li said coldly.

The crowd's eyes flickered, understanding clearly—Chi Li was obviously siding with Qing Ge.

Because Chi Li stood out to mediate when Hei Wu was clearly at a disadvantage.

But they also understood that this was normal.

Qing Ge was a prodigious warrior whose combat power could rival Lord Chi Li, the top favorite in the Royal City. What was Hei Wu compared to that?

"Qing Ge understands." Lu Qingshan put away the Black Blood Sword, smiling warmly at Chi Li, a stark contrast to his domineering demeanor towards Hei Wu.

Bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

The spirits present secretly despised Lu Qingshan's behavior in their hearts.

But they dared not speak out.

Because they understood that in front of Qing Ge, there were very few they could consider "strong".

"For the sake of the Lord, I'll let this pass, but this matter is far from over." Hei Wu angrily issued a threat to save face.

As to whether he dared to trouble Lu Qingshan in private, only a ghost would know.

"You two, come with me. If I have offspring with Mingyue in the future, I'll need two attentive maids." Lu Qingshan unhurriedly addressed the two trembling little girls.

Although very young, the two little girls were quick-witted due to their experiences.

They could see that "Qing Ge" looked similar to the bad guys but was entirely different in nature, showing them kindness.

So the two little girls nodded without hesitation, carefully following behind Lu Qingshan, still softly sobbing.
