Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 1297 383: Lu Changsheng's Return, All of Lu City Is Shaken! Beneath the Immortal, All Are Ants!

Is a low-key demeanor truly indicative of an Immortal's temperament?

Qi Guangmao's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a shake of his head, he stated, "No need to ask. If the Ancestor wishes to speak, he will naturally inform us."

"Furthermore, regardless of whether the Ancestor has achieved a breakthrough, he remains the revered Ancestor of the Qi Family."

"As long as the Ancestor is with the Qi Family, our clan will continue to prosper. His presence in the Immortal Realm or otherwise holds little consequence."

Qi Guangmao spoke with such conviction.

But was the impact truly negligible?

The difference was monumental.

Nevertheless, Qi Guangmao understood perfectly within his heart.

The Blood Swamp Mountain Range presented formidable challenges.

Lu Changsheng's wisdom in knowing when to proceed and when to withdraw was commendable.

It was far better than perishing within the Blood Swamp Mountain Range.

Consequently, Qi Guangmao refrained from probing into this sensitive matter.

In due course, the truth would undoubtedly surface.

Attaining immortality was no simple feat.

Qi Yutang nodded in agreement, his thoughts lost in contemplation.

Then, the three members of the Qi Family swiftly continued their pursuit.

No matter the circumstances, they were determined to properly "persuade" their Ancestor to return.

"Whoosh."

Lu Changsheng had already reached the Chen Family's estate, appearing directly above their compound.

He was, of course, aware of the stringent rules governing Lu City.

Even an Immortal could not act with impunity.

However, numerous avenues existed for applying pressure.

Direct confrontation was not the only method.

Consider the present situation.

Lu Changsheng hovered above the Chen Family, refraining from any overt actions, yet he unleashed the potent aura emanating from his very being.

"Boom."

A terrifying aura, characteristic of a True Immortal, propagated in all directions with overwhelming force.

It descended like a colossal mountain, bearing down upon every individual within the Chen Family.

Instantly, a wave of astonishment swept through the populace!

"The Immortal Realm! This must be a mighty cultivator from the Immortal Realm. Which True Immortal graces us with their presence?"

"Judging by the direction, it appears to be the Chen Family..."

"The Chen Family does not boast a True Immortal powerhouse. Could this True Immortal be targeting them?"

"How did the Chen Family manage to offend a True Immortal? Moreover, this True Immortal seems unfamiliar, not one of the recognized True Immortals from Lu City..."

Numerous residents within Lu City immediately shifted their attention towards the Chen Family stronghold.

They, too, perceived the formidable figure descending from above the Chen Family's premises.

The imposing aura radiating from him undeniably signaled the presence of a supreme powerhouse from the Immortal Realm!

Furthermore, the deliberate dissemination of such a potent True Immortal aura.

It unequivocally stemmed from displeasure towards the Chen Family.

Or perhaps it was a calculated move to single out the Chen Family.

Within Lu City, the Chen Family held a significant and deeply entrenched position.

The family had, in the past, nurtured a guardian from the Immortal Realm.

However, that formidable Immortal eventually succumbed to the trials of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.

Although a True Immortal no longer presided over them, the Chen Family consistently produced powerful cultivators from the Ancestor Realm generation after generation, sometimes even multiple individuals.

There was always the potential for a new True Immortal to emerge.

Consequently, the Chen Family's influence within Lu City had not waned considerably.

On the contrary, their standing had become even more robust.

Yet, they had now provoked the ire of a True Immortal.

Everyone recognized that the Chen Family was poised to face arduous times ahead.

The Lu City Law Enforcement Team also detected Lu Changsheng's profound aura.

However, True Immortals were granted certain "privileges."

As long as a True Immortal adhered to Lu City's regulations and refrained from direct physical intervention.

The Law Enforcement Team would typically overlook the situation.

No one relished the prospect of offending a True Immortal.

A True Immortal, even within the Heavenly Realm, occupied an exalted position.

Yet, while others merely observed the unfolding spectacle.

For the members of the Chen Family, the situation was bewildering.

The Chen Family had long grown accustomed to wielding authority.

When had it come to pass that someone dared to assert dominance over them?

Especially a True Immortal!

Moreover, that crushing pressure, akin to a physical force, bore down directly upon them.

Underneath this immense pressure, their bodies strained considerably.

Even uttering words became an arduous task.

Only those residing in the Ancestor Realm experienced slightly less discomfort, though the difference was marginal.

"Might I inquire, Esteemed Immortal, how has my Chen Family incurred your displeasure?"

Finally, a cultivator from the Chen Family's Ancestor Realm managed to speak.

Lu Changsheng cast a casual glance in his direction.

A mere cultivator of the Ancestor Realm.

Even before achieving immortality, Lu Changsheng would not have given him much thought.

"Do you not recognize Brother Lu?"

"If you are unaware, then how dare you exert such pressure against the Qi Family?"

Lu Changsheng's words caused the heart of the Chen Family's Ancestor Realm cultivator to plummet.

He seemed to grasp the implication, his expression twisting dramatically.

"Could it be that you are..."

Indeed, the Ancestor Realm cultivator had already surmised the truth.

"Indeed, I am Immortal Lu Changsheng!"

"Boom".

The instant Lu Changsheng uttered his identity.

Utter bewilderment swept through the Chen Family.

Particularly among those existing in the Ancestor Realm and the prominent figures of the Chen Family.

Each one displayed expressions of sheer disbelief.

As though the words could not possibly be true.

Lu Changsheng!

If their memories served them correctly, wasn't that the same 'Ancestor Lu' from the Qi Family, also named Lu Changsheng?

There were rumors that 'Ancestor Lu' had ventured into the Blood Swamp Mountain Range.

His objective: to achieve immortality.

Could he have returned now, and has he actually succeeded in his endeavor?

Yet, how could this all seem so implausible?

Was it truly possible to attain immortality so easily in the Blood Swamp Mountain Range?

This individual was a True Immortal!

The Chen Family had, in ages past, produced a True Immortal, but their influence had waned significantly since then.

In terms of foundation, the Chen Family was certainly not lacking.

Geniuses, too, were never in short supply within the Chen Family.

Resources and connections were also considerable assets for the Chen Family within Lu City.

Despite all these advantages, the Chen Family had still failed to bring forth another True Immortal over the years.

This starkly illustrated just how arduous the path to becoming a True Immortal truly was.

The more they comprehended the immense difficulty of achieving True Immortality, the more they grasped the immense weight a True Immortal carried.

One should not be swayed by the Chen Family's established foundation, abundant resources, or extensive connections.

For when confronted by a True Immortal, these advantages were akin to mere paper, utterly insignificant.

With this realization dawning upon them, the most powerful Ancestor Realm expert of the Chen Family drew a deep breath. After a brief, silent communion with the other Ancestor Realm experts, he bowed respectfully towards Lu Changsheng. "Honored Immortal Lu, it was indeed our Chen Family who committed the transgression. Whatever your command, our family shall obey without question!"

The words of the Chen Family's foremost Ancestor Realm cultivator were spoken with unwavering resolve, leaving absolutely no room for ambiguity.

It was unequivocally a conclusion reached with decisive certainty.

Furthermore, this was a unified decision emanating from all the Ancestor Realms.

There was no hint of an intention to evade accountability.

Nor was there any audible sign of dissent.

They surrendered themselves completely to the unfolding circumstances.

Such an unresisted stance momentarily caught Lu Changsheng off guard.

However, after a moment of contemplation, Lu Changsheng found himself understanding.

A True Immortal was not to be trifled with!

Even if a True Immortal was theoretically unable to take direct action within the confines of Lu City.

Should the Chen Family harbor any true desire to oppose a True Immortal.

Lu Changsheng possessed countless methods to ensure the utter downfall of the Chen Family.

This entire spectacle was observed by all onlookers.

Every single one was left in a state of profound astonishment.

Some were even rendered completely speechless.

The Chen Family, a venerable and ancient lineage within Lu City.

Reduced to such a state?

Lu Changsheng had not even needed to lift a finger, nor utter a single threatening word.

He had merely allowed his imposing aura to be felt.

Standing serenely above the Chen Family's domain.

And then, the Chen Family had bowed their heads, submitted entirely, not daring to even consider resistance.

This scene caused many cultivators of lower cultivation levels to seem as though they were on the verge of a profound realization.

This was the power of a True Immortal!

This was the might of an Immortal!

Once an individual ascended to immortality.

They transcended the mortal realm, becoming fundamentally distinct from ordinary beings.

Below the level of an Immortal, all were considered mere ants!

"A true man should indeed conduct himself this way!"

Some of the low-level cultivators present were filled with immense admiration and fervent excitement at this precise moment.

In their eyes, this event served to powerfully reinforce their own aspirations towards achieving "immortality"!

In contrast to the outward shock and awe, the members of the Chen Family were engulfed in a palpable tremor of fear.

They remained in a state of anxious anticipation, awaiting Lu Changsheng's ultimate "judgment."

The longer Lu Changsheng maintained his silence, the more their dread intensified.

After all, fear often stems from the unknown and the uncertain.

Following a significant pause, Lu Changsheng finally broke the silence.

"You proposed that the Qi Family should relinquish a third of their assets as a dowry."

"Now, I decree that you shall apologize to the Qi Family by surrendering half of your Chen Family's total assets. Do you have any objections to this decree?"

Lu Changsheng's voice resonated clearly, echoing in the ears of every Chen Family member present.

"Half of the family's assets?"

A wave of shock coursed through the hearts of many within the Chen Family.

Especially those residing in the Ancestor Realm, who felt an overwhelming sense of bitterness welling up within them.

Half of their accumulated wealth!

The countless years of painstaking accumulation by the Chen Family.

Now, it was to be handed over entirely.

But did they possess the courage to refuse such a command?

Therefore, despite the resentment and bitterness churning in their hearts, the clan's most formidable Ancestor Realm expert could only bow his head once more and utter, "We accept the command of the Honored Immortal!"

Lu Changsheng offered no further words.

He turned his back and departed without delay.

He only conveyed a single voice message to the stunned Qi Guangmao and his son, who were observing from within the crowd.

"The matter concerning the Chen Family is now in your hands."

"Swiftly dispatch your people to secure the Chen Family's assets."

With these final words, Lu Changsheng's figure abruptly vanished from sight.

"Father, the Chen Family... has been dealt with just like that?"

Qi Yutang was overcome with a flood of emotion.

The entire sequence of events was truly awe-inspiring.

With a mere utterance.

Lu Changsheng, with just a single sentence, had compelled the formidable Chen Family into complete submission.

How incredibly exhilarating was this outcome?

"This is precisely what a True Immortal embodies!"

"And from this day forward, our Qi Family's standing will be fundamentally transformed."

"We are now, in the truest sense, a True Immortal's family..."
