Chapter 29: The Aristocratic Family That Treats Human Life as Grass! Lu Yu Who Does Not Follow the Script!
Compared to the masked figures of the secret night market, this group of unmasked individuals resembled a swarm of fireflies in the dark, attracting everyone’s gaze!
And because they didn’t conceal their identities, it didn’t take long before their identities were recognised!
“The leader seems to be the eldest son of the Xu family, Xu Jiuzhou. I heard he was just an ordinary person before, but after he went to the wilderness and ate a mysterious fruit, it strengthened his soul. He’s been advancing rapidly ever since, stepping into Awakener Rank 8 at the age of twenty. Now, at twenty-five, he’s probably reached Rank 9 and may even have touched the mysteries of the Morning Star. He’s one of the most likely candidates to become a Morning Star.”
“They look so imposing. Could they be here to avenge their family members?”
“The Xu family’s old patriarch is also here. Although he failed to become a Morning Star, his strength is enough to dominate below that rank. Plus, the Xu family has accumulated power for years. If Xu Jiuzhou becomes a Morning Star, they’ll rightfully become a prominent family.”
“Looks like there’s going to be a good show to watch!”

These people whispered to each other, controlling their voices to ensure only their companions could hear. They only wanted to watch the drama, not to attract trouble.
Xu Xiaoqing, seeing the group, appeared flustered for a moment, and hurriedly said to Lu Yu:
“Sir, the Xu family has arrived. Perhaps you should head to the centre of the night market and rest for a while. The market owner is there, and they won’t dare act recklessly.”
“The Xu family, are they very strong?”
Lu Yu’s voice was deep, devoid of anger, but he was genuinely asking.
He didn’t know how the factions of the Awakener world were divided, but this Xu family seemed so formidable—there must be many Morning Star level individuals among them.
But why hadn’t he seen them when the twisted spiders attacked the North District?
Did they think ordinary people’s lives weren’t worth saving?
With this thought, Lu Yu’s dissatisfaction with the Xu family grew. Aristocratic families were indeed ruthless, treating the common folk as mere weeds!
Upon hearing Lu Yu’s question, Xu Xiaoqing realised that Lu Yu had no idea how powerful the Xu family was. She silently cursed herself for not realising sooner.
She thought Lu Yu might act impulsively, and now she regretted it. She quickly explained the Xu family’s strength to Lu Yu and suggested that he go to the centre of the night market to wait until the market ended.
In her mind, Lu Yu’s shadow servants were only around Rank 5 or 6, so he himself should only be at Rank 9.
Though that was strong, the Xu family’s patriarch had once failed to become a Morning Star but still obtained some of its power, which far surpassed an ordinary Rank 9 Awakener.
Even though Lu Yu had a powerful background, his personal strength wasn’t enough to face the Xu family. If he were to die, even if the Xu family was annihilated, it would be meaningless.
Xu Xiaoqing was anxious because she had accepted such a valuable item from Lu Yu and promised to assist him for a while. If something were to happen to him, she would feel guilty.
“Two Awakener Rank 9s… from a large family?”
Lu Yu repeated, trying to confirm he hadn’t misheard. No Morning Stars, yet they dared to claim themselves as a family?
This was because Lu Yu had a very high starting point. Even across the entire Federation, although Morning Stars weren’t top-tier combatants, they still ranked in the middle of the pyramid.
Morning Stars were strong enough to single-handedly conquer a small city, revered by thousands!
But now that he knew their strength, Lu Yu felt no fear. He casually glanced at the nearby stalls, most of the goods didn’t even qualify as one-star materials. They were all just trash.
Xu Xiaoqing sighed helplessly, preparing to ask for help.
She hated owing people favours!
After struggling with it for a while, her gaze firmed. She reached out to lead Lu Yu to the night market centre.
But before she could touch him, two shadow servants appeared from the darkness, their sharp blades already pressed against her neck!
She could even feel the icy cold of the blades. With a slight movement, she would be decapitated, her body severed in two!
This wasn’t what the novel said!
Wasn’t it supposed to be that the heroine bravely held the hero’s hand, and together they avoided danger, leading to a happy, peaceful life?
Why had she almost been decapitated by two shadow monsters before even touching him?
Lu Yu looked up at Xu Xiaoqing, wondering why she was trying to touch him.
But he didn’t sense any malice from her, so with a thought, he ordered the two shadow servants to retreat.
When Xu Xiaoqing felt the blades move away from her neck, she breathed a sigh of relief.
But the tension had caused her legs to weaken, and she stumbled, falling to the ground. She gave Lu Yu a resentful look.
She had helped him out of goodwill, yet almost lost her life in the process, and he didn’t even help her up!
But she knew that Lu Yu was cautious, so she said on her own:
“Big brother, why don’t we strategically move away for now?”
