This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome-Novel2

Chapter 279: An Audience

Any who had seen those images and information regarding what the Guimen Sect did would definitely come to hate them for it.

There was even a wave of mass panic seen on the internet.

Common folks had no edge whatsoever to speak of when dealing with the cultivators. One could even say that common folks were treated more or less like meat on the chopping board in such situations.

They could all get killed at any given moment.

Fortunately, the government began to put a lot of effort to promote the Special Task Force and the Dragon Fang Special Forces at such moments.

All those were meant for telling that there were cultivation forces that served the government as well, so the common people were protected from cultivators.

It was only then that said mass panic was suppressed.

There had been a good amount of cases of lunatics who went about killing people, even when there had not been any cultivators to be found after all.

The cultivators did not seem that much of a threat, if one were to consider things in such a manner.

“Good work indeed, son,” Lu Tianxiang looked at his son, complementing Lu Xuan satisfactorily.

In the eyes of many cultivators, Lu Xuan was seen as a ferocious devil who went about eradicating clans and sects as he saw fit.

However, in the eyes of common people like Lu Tianxiang, Lu Xuan could not have done any better.

The way most people saw it, the Guimen Sect was a nest of demons, where one could almost see countless people within shrieking in grief and pain.

Even the most ‘benevolent and accepting’ of SJW ba**ards and bit**es would not have been able to stomach people like that.

It was bad enough to have someone killed, and having their soul subjected to eternal torment after death was just too much.

What the Guimen Sect made the cruelest of people to ever exist prior look meek.

Lu Tianxiang nodded satisfactorily. The way he saw it, he did his part raising his son the right way.

His son did not veer off the path of a decent human, all thanks to the way he brought Lu Xuan up.

Lu Xuan flashed a smile.

The rabbit, which was watching all of that from the side, felt speechless, deeming that Lu Tianxiang probably having no idea just how notorious his son actually was. Lu Xuan was nothing short of a monster.

Lu Xuan was so terrible that even a monster king like the rabbit, had to behave as meekly as a kitten before him, and that had nothing to do with the rabbit being a nice creature.

It was just that it feared the thought of being bullied.

It was just that the animal feared death.

If it had not been for survival, the rabbit would not have wanted to sell their pride and let some kid ride on it like some pet.

The thought of it all almost brought the rabbit to tears.

“Brother!”

A petite figure went up and launched herself onto Lu Xuan.

Said figure was none other than Lu Guoguo, who apparently looked a lot bigger than she was a year ago. A child’s growth commonly exceeded what the grown-ups expected after all.

The little thing, who was hardly able to say words correctly, already became able to call him without muddling the words.

“Hi there, little thing!”

Lu Xuan patted his sister’s head and put her down.

“I’m not little, brother.” Lu Guoguo compared her height to Lu Xuan, and she was already at the height of his waist by then. historical

“Yep, no longer little indeed.”

Lu Xuan smiled. The force that his youngest sister brought about earlier was comparable to that of a boar charging.

If he were to be a common folk, he would have most probably been knocked over.

It was lucky that Lu Xuan was not some common folk, and that prevented him from falling on his back.

Lu Xuan went back to normal life when he returned to the villa, while at the same time, searching for the whereabouts of the last elder of the Vampiric Empire—Cain, the true ancestor of the vampires.

However, Cain was an elusive figure to begin with, and said figure doubled his effort at hiding himself, ever since learning that Lu Xuan had returned.

No one knew of Cain’s whereabouts at the moment.

The Dragon paid Lu Xuan a visit personally at the villa on that day.

“It’s been a while, Chief Dragon. Looking great as always.”

Lu Xuan said as he looked at the Dragon.

The Dragon paused for a bit and continued, “Well, I wouldn’t have shown up without a good reason. I’m here at Yunxuan Villa today because I have something to discuss with you, Mr. Lu.

“Please,” Lu Xuan told him to continue.

“The First Minister would like to meet you.”

The Dragon fired away.

“The First Minister?” Lu Xuan was feeling rather surprised. He had no doubt knew who said First Minister actually was—the man who was in charge of the entire nation, as suggested by his title.

Back in the feudal era, the First Minister would have been something like an emperor. In modern times, that man was one of the few most influential people found in the whole world.

Even at present, where spirit qi was already restored to the world, he was still nonetheless one of the few people with the most authority and deemed the most powerful in the nation.

He was someone who stood at the absolute pinnacle in Huaxia.

Lu Xuan did not anticipate that someone like the First Minister would have wanted to meet him.

That was because the First Minister never showed any signs of wanting to meet Lu Xuan in the first place. His will had usually been communicated through the Dragon, if he were to need anything of them.

“It is the First Minister indeed.”

The Dragon confirmed that, while feeling quite surprised deep down. He too, never anticipated that the First Minister would want to meet Lu Xuan out of the blue.

That was why he came to meet Lu Xuan in the night.

“So, when is it gonna be? Would I need to head to the capital then?” Lu Xuan asked.

“Yes, and as soon as possible.”

The Dragon continued after a brief pause.

“I’d head out right away then.”

Lu Xuan stretched for a bit and said.

There was already a helicopter waiting when Lu Xuan got off the mountain, which headed straight for the airport. They then traveled to the Imperial Capital from that airport in Fu City.

Lu Xuan came to meet the First Minister face to face several hours later.

The First Minister was in his middle age yet appeared to be very young, and it was obvious that he too, was a cultivator.

But then again, it was rather obvious. With spirit qi being restored to the world for so long, the First Minister, as the head of state, would have definitely been able to gain access to a huge amount of cultivation information and resources.

It was only natural that he was a cultivator as well.

He was at the sixth level at the moment.

That meant that he had powers equal to that of a Martial Arts Legend.

Back in the past, he would have definitely been a very powerful figure at grandmaster level. However, things at present were different, given that all manner of formidable fighters mushroomed all over the place.

But then again, if the aim was to have a healthy body, such a level was more than ample to serve the purpose. All that cultivation coupled with the medical resources the Inner Palace had access to, made it very easy for one to live over 100 years old.

The decorations of the Inner Palace were subdued and simple. Someone like the First Minister had long forsaken any desire for luxury, and he liked things to be as simple as possible.

Still, the man exuded a faint air of prestige and elegance nonetheless, which was a type of supreme dragon aura, commanding respect from others.

It was a type of aura that common folks were unable to perceive, but not Lu Xuan. He was easily able to sense it—the aura that was said to be the presence of sovereigns.

“Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Lu. Please have a seat.”

The First Minister gestured and then sat on the couch, sitting across Lu Xuan.

The man felt amicable, yet had an air that commanded respect nonetheless.

“Greetings indeed, First Minister. I’m Lu Xuan, some dude of nowhere.”

Lu Xuan cupped his hands and said.

“I’m sure that you find it peculiar as to why I request such an audience with you all of a sudden, Mr. Lu,” the First Minister chuckled and continued.

“Yes, I’m indeed curious.”

Lu Xuan nodded and said.

“Well, allow me to be forthcoming then.” The First Minister put up a serious face and continued, “I’m sure that you heard of how bad the state of affairs is as of late, especially when it concerns the cultivators.”

Lu Xuan nodded and said, “I do indeed.”
