According to the Cangwu national calendar, the turn of mid-spring and late spring every year, that is, the fifteenth day after the spring equinox, is the ancestor worship festival.

It was April, the earth was warming, the grass was growing and the warbler was flying, whether it was an ordinary person in the market or a high-ranking cultivator family, a large-scale ancestor worship activity would be held on this day.

However, for the Lu family in Wanqiu City, this year's ancestor worship festival has a special significance.

With the end of the retreat of the head of the family, Lu Songmeng, the members of the family who have reached the age of 16 in the past two years, will undergo the second bloodline test since birth.

To some extent, this bloodline test will determine a cultivator's future attainment ceiling.

While the members of the Lu family and the subordinates in the mansion were preparing intensively, Lu Ping'an was leisurely walking on the way back to Wanqiu City.

In his leisure, he also used a piece of spirit animal skin to exchange a large bunch of sugar gourds from a vendor who entered the city to catch the market, and ate it while walking.

Although there was a lot of danger in the Lu Mansion, if he didn't rely on the power of his family and become a casual cultivator, his future cultivation path would be very difficult, so Lu Ping'an still decided to come back.

And the head of the family is about to go out, and I think those little people should also be more restrained.

"Hahaha! There is a way in heaven that you don't take, but you can do it without a door to hell, and you are not afraid to dare to come back. ”

"Yo, it's you. ”

When he was still about ten miles away from the city gate, Lu Ping'an stopped when he heard the sound, looked up, and found that it was Zhang Xuan and the others who had been chasing and killing him.

The eyes that Zhang Xuan looked at Lu Ping'an were full of excitement.

Originally, he had given up looking for Lu Ping'an's body and was about to go back to accept the punishment of his master, but who knew that the three of them actually bumped into Lu Ping'an on the way back to the city.

This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

On the other side, Lu Ping'an was indifferent, and carefully inserted the bunch of sugar gourds into the mud on the side of the road to fix them. It didn't look like he was facing three vicious killers.

"Jin Biao, up!"

Zhang Xuan raised his hand and ordered Jin Biao, who was standing behind him, while his eyes were stubbornly observing Lu Ping'an's every move.

This time, he would never let Lu Ping'an escape again.

"Yes!" Jin Biao replied in a deep voice, and then used the Escape Technique to escape into the ground, and came straight to Lu Ping'an.

Lu Ping'an's arms drooped, always looking ahead, and he had no intention of resisting at all, as if he was standing in place and waiting for death.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth rose, and the picture of Lu Ping'an's head being cut off seemed to have appeared in his mind.

However, in the next moment, his cheeks twitched violently, and he exclaimed, "Jin Biao!

It's just a pity that it's already too late.

I saw Lu Ping'an take out the flying sword from his sleeve, attach the aura to it, buckle his finger on the hilt of the sword, and shoot straight at the bulge of the ground in front of him.

Although the Retreat Technique is convenient for lurking closely, it is not suitable in places with hard soil, and the location of the caster is easy to detect.

And because of the loss of vision, it will become a live target.

Of course, Jin Biao also knew this, but considering that Lu Ping'an only had the strength of the Martial Dao Realm Quadruple and the means of attack were limited, he didn't care at all.

As a result, Jin Biao didn't figure out what means Lu Ping'an used to attack himself at a depth of one zhang underground until he lost his breath.

"Well, yes, that's how the ground rat should die. Lu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction and said to himself.

"Huangkou Xiaoer, don't be rampant, take your life!"

The companion who had worked together for many years was killed, and Zhang Xuan's heart was filled with grief and anger for a while.

Lu Ping'an's strength grew strangely, Zhang Xuan didn't dare to have any reservations, and took out all the treasures at the bottom of his box.

"Oh, flash scrolls?"

Lu Ping'an didn't expect that these killers could actually afford expensive spell scrolls, and they were caught off guard and their eyes were blind for a short time.

But even so, he still didn't panic.

Taking advantage of Lu Ping'an's vision being robbed, Zhang Xuan quickly approached, grabbed the handle of the Emei thorn, and stabbed him in the heart.

When!

At the moment when the thorn blade cut through Lu Ping'an's coat and was about to penetrate his heart, the Furious Battle Thorn Armor opened at the same time.

With the dull sound of two gold and iron interlacing, Zhang Xuanhu's mouth cracked, and his hands were wasted.

"Who's behind you?"

Lu Ping'an grabbed Zhang Xuan's neck with one hand, lifted him off the ground, and hovered in mid-air.

Although Zhang Xuan had already activated the aura in his body and gathered it to his neck for defense, in front of Lu Ping'an, who had the strength and talent of the King Kong Ape, this aura defense wall only lasted less than half a breath before it was all shattered.

"Gass!" Zhang Xuan spat blood from his mouth, trembling all over, and begged for mercy with difficulty, "Childe, please be merciful, villain, I am also a servant of the Lu family!"

Hearing this, Lu Ping'an's heart moved slightly, but his expression remained the same, and he continued to ask: "Less nonsense! Answer my question, who are you under the command?"

"Yes...... It's the Great Elder...... Ahh

As soon as Zhang Xuan said Lu Tianwang's pronoun, Lu Ping'an's throat was choked.

Although he does not have a penchant for killing, a dog that has bitten his master and betrayed and betrayed his master no longer has any need to live.

In the same way, the remaining fifth child was also killed by Lu Ping'an on the way to escape.

So far, none of the three killers sent by Lu Tianwang have survived.

Lu Ping'an eliminated Zhang Xuan and the others, and it only took less than a bag of cigarettes before and after, and they were not witnessed by other civilians.

Of course, as a descendant of the big family Lu family, he doesn't need to bear any responsibility for killing someone outside the city.

Retracting the Xuanjie flying sword, Lu Ping'an dragged the bodies of Zhang Xuan and the others into the trees in the distance and searched them in turn.

As he expected, all three of them wore rooting dough, and they had worn it more than once, and they could no longer distinguish their original appearances.

In addition, Lu Ping'an also turned over a broken storage bag, a spell scroll, and a few low-grade spirit stones on the bodies of the three of them.

Overall, it's a big gain.

"The devouring system activated, and the nearby Yellow Rank Upper Grade Human Race bloodline was detected.

Anabolic side effects: None

Five Elements Attribute Potential: Earth

System Suggestion: Suggest devouring. ”

Lu Ping'an turned on the phagocytosis system and tested the bloodline qualifications of the three people.

Among them, Jin Biao and Lao Wu are both mortal-level high-grade bloodlines, barely meeting the requirements of cultivation.

However, to Lu Ping'an's surprise, Zhang Xuan's bloodline turned out to be the top grade of the Yellow Rank, which was higher than him, the descendant of the Lu family.

Even in the Lu family, there are only a handful of young people with the high-grade bloodline of the Yellow Order, Zhang Xuan is extremely talented, but he has become an eagle dog, which is really a waste of God's gift.

"Whew, it's dangerous, if he was born in a big family, or if he had practiced more advanced exercises, I would probably have stopped eating when I first fought. ”

Lu Ping'an exhaled a long breath and muttered to himself with palpitations.

"Confirmed devouring. Lu Ping'an pressed his palm against Zhang Xuan's Tianying acupoint and confirmed to the system.

Although the second-level devouring system can obtain the Terran bloodline of the middle grade of the Xuan Rank, Lu Ping'an knows very well that in today's Wanqiu City, those who have the bloodline of the Xuan Rank are all in the True Martial Realm, and even the powerhouses of the Yuan Martial Realm.

To find trouble with them is to find death.

"Forget it, anyway, the bloodline bar has a return function, so let's use his improvisation first. Lu Ping'an comforted himself.

"The bloodline source has been detected, and the palm acquisition function has been unlocked, and it has begun to devour.

Human-specific:

Comprehension: +128

Five Elemental Attributes: Additional Earth Attributes (Ununlocked)

Devouring Body Bloodline Grade: ......"

Lu Ping'an listened to the broadcast of the system's human voice, at first, he was quite calm, but when he heard the last item, his eyes widened suddenly, and he almost couldn't believe his ears.

"Hey, you won't be out of order, how can my bloodline level be so high?" Lu Ping'an asked in disbelief.

"Troubleshooting begins...... Result: No suspicious items were found. The system voice replied.

"Uh...... All right. ”

Lu Ping'an scratched the back of his head, and said in his heart that this should be the same as the so-called "three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang".

It seems that the fusion of bloodlines is not simply one plus one equals two, and sometimes it will have the effect of being greater than two, or even far greater than two.

However, to understand the specific rules, I am afraid it will take a long time to summarize.

After obtaining Zhang Xuan's bloodline, Lu Ping'an dug a deep pit nearby and buried the bodies of the three in it.

After all, he obtained the blood of other people, took a big advantage, and finally gave a funeral service, even if it was a thank you gift from Lu Ping'an.

Although Zhang Xuan's space storage bag was broken and could not be used, this was a high-level magic weapon after all, and Lu Ping'an was reluctant to throw it away, and after stacking it neatly, he took it away with other loot.

Half an hour later, Lu Ping'an quietly returned to his family's residence.

After Lu Ping'an entered the house, he checked it as soon as he saw it, and found that there were traces of someone turning it in the house, and it was estimated that Lu Tianwang had come to his room after he left.

It seems that this place is uninhabitable, who knows if Lu Tianwang will do anything here. After thinking about it again, Lu Ping deliberately chose the remote alley in the house and walked towards his former residence.

The Lu Mansion occupies an extremely large area, and most of the people are busy worshipping their ancestors and preparing for tomorrow's bloodline test, but no one notices that Lu Ping'an, who has been missing for many days, has returned.

When he came to the front of the house, Lu Ping'an, who had been entangled all the way, finally made a decision.

Until tomorrow, he must keep a low profile, preferably hiding in the old mansion so that no one can find out about his tracks.

Lu Tianwang is a master of the True Martial Realm, and he has been handling the affairs of the clan for a long time on behalf of the head of the family, and he has many minions, and now Lu Ping'an is not enough to compete with him.

"Master, madam, the old slave is guilty, the old slave deserves to die......"

Lu Ping'an was about to push the door in, when suddenly, the cry of an old man came from the courtyard.
