1481 The Lu family Has Become Low Profile
“Could it be the Liang family?” One of the short-bearded elders asked tentatively.
“That shouldn’t be possible. The highest cultivation level in the Liang family is Liang Zongxing, who is only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm. Our clan leader had already stepped into the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm for many years. If the thief was Liang Zongxing, it was impossible for the clan leader not to notice him. Besides, the location of the treasure vault of the Lu family is very secretive. If one isn’t familiar with the terrain of the Lu family’s mansion, it’s basically impossible to find the location of the secret treasure vault.” Another elder in a gray robe analyzed carefully.
The short-bearded elder was shocked. “According to your analysis, doesn’t that mean that the Lu family has a traitor?!”
“Otherwise, how would it make sense? That thief could sneak into the Lu family silently and steal all the resources in the treasure vault without us noticing!” The gray-robed elder asked.
As the gray-robed elder spoke, the expressions of the clan leader and Lu Gang immediately darkened a few degrees.
“Investigate. We must investigate this matter thoroughly!” Lu Gang’s chest heaved violently and he almost shouted angrily.
A hint of coldness flashed through the clan leader’s old eyes. “We must investigate, but we can’t continue making a fuss.”
“Patriarch, are you worried that those people outside will take the opportunity to attack our Lu family?” The gray-robed elder asked.
The leader sat down again and held the teacup beside him. “They might not dare to attack openly, but they’ll definitely cause trouble for the Lu family. So, we must not let outsiders know that more than half of the Lu family’s resources have been stolen.”
To be precise, two-thirds of the resources were stolen, and eight million Spirit Stones in the treasure vault were also stolen, which could be said to have hurt the Lu family greatly.
The remaining one-third was only enough to maintain the functioning of the entire Lu family, but it was impossible for them to be extravagant.
At least not for the time being.
Otherwise, the entire Lu family would probably fall quickly because they were short of funds.
“That thief is really despicable!” The short-bearded elder cursed angrily.
“I’ll personally investigate this matter. You don’t have to worry about it anymore.” The leader decided, “However, you don’t have to worry about this. You must take good care of the family clan’s business. The current situation of the Lu family is such that we can’t withstand a huge commotion.”
Speaking of this, the clan leader suddenly looked at Lu Gang and said meaningfully, “Patriarch, you have to take good care of the juniors too. Don’t let them cause trouble everywhere.”
Realizing that the junior the leader was talking about was his only son, Lu Gang didn’t look too good.
However, he also knew that what the leader said was the truth.
Especially when the appearance of “Just A Store” attracted many big shots from other cities, he had to be even more cautious.
Otherwise, once they offended someone they shouldn’t have, the entire Lu family would be the only ones who would be wrecked in the end.
On the second day after the Lu family’s meeting, the people in Zhuang Prefectural City quickly realized that the members of the Lu family, who were originally looking for the thief with great fanfare, suddenly restrained themselves and became silent.
Most people were dumbfounded about this. They didn’t understand why the Lu family, which had always been domineering, suddenly kept a low profile.
…
In the Liang family’s mansion.
“Father, what’s wrong?” Seeing his father standing at the door of the study and looking at the talisman in his hand, Liang Yingjun couldn’t help asking in confusion.
Liang Zongxing looked up at his son and said, “It’s all thanks to you siblings that the Liang family can rise again.”
“Huh?”
Liang Yingjun scratched his head in confusion and said honestly, “Father, Senior Lu is the one who helped the Liang family rise again.”
