Level Up in Martial World

"So we are going to be in-laws soon. You should be happy," Ancestor Lu walked to Huang Kai and patted him on his shoulder.

"Oh, and send my greetings to Huang Wei," Huang Kai bowed when he heard this.

"Yes, Ancestor Lu." Huang Wei was their ancestor's name. First-class martial artists were the absolute powerhouse of the city, and nobody could say their name as a sign of respect except the first-stage martial artists themselves.

"You can leave now." Ancestor Lu just waved his hands, and all the dizziness of all the people in the hall disappeared in a blink of an eye as they became active again.

"Let's go," Huang Kai said as the Huang family just left.

"You have to be careful on your way as I will soon be your brother-in-law," Lu Zhen said as he helped Huang Yi stand up and patted him on the back.

"You…"

"Let's go," Huang Kai said in a cold tone which woke up Huang Yi, who was again trying to fight Lu Zhen.

"Yes, Father," he said as he bowed.

With that said, the party of the Huang family all left the lu family estate

As they left the Lu estate,

"Patriarch, are we really leaving those items in Lu Zhen's hands?" The old man who previously whispered to Huang Kai to be careful asked with an unsatisfied expression.

"What can we do then? Fight that crazy mother? Or should we wage war, which is unlikely since the ancestors won't agree." Huang Kai had a cold expression.

The old man was left speechless.

"Huang Yi, your training will be doubled from tomorrow." Huang Kai looked at his son, whose head was down, with a cold gaze.

Suddenly, Huang Yi felt chills as he hurriedly replied.

"Yes, Father." He bowed.

Meanwhile, inside the Lu estate,

Ancestor Lu looked at Lu Ying with a sigh.

"Why are you always hot-headed when it comes to your son? You are quite intelligent when other things come up, however, you become a…" Ancestor Lu coughed a little as he refrained from saying anything, seeing the stare of Lu Ying.

"Ancestor Lu, you know my son…" Lu Ying was suddenly interrupted by Ancestor Lu.

"Yeah! Yeah! I understand." Ancestor Lu waved his hand dismissively as he suddenly looked at Lu Zhen.

Lu Zhen felt like an ant being stared down by a god, as he experienced a strange pressure that even caused his mind to slow down.

Lu zhen blinked his eyes and the next moment he knew ancestor lu was already near him.

"How interesting," Ancestor Lu slowly scrutinized Lu Zhen with eyes filled with interest.

"You are clearly only a third-stage martial artist. However, your body should be comparable to a true third-stage peak martial artist, no, maybe even stronger than most ordinary third-stage peak martial artists," Ancestor Lu said as he simply flicked his fingers on Lu Zhen's body.

When the elders and the direct descendants heard this, their eyes widened.

"Lu Zhen has hidden it really deep."

"An 18-year-old third-stage martial artist. This has never been heard of before in our town."

"How terrifying."

"Maybe that is why he acted like a waste, to hide his talent." Some of the people's eyes lit up with realization as they could only think of these reasons why Lu Zhen would hide.

"We have wronged Lu Zhen." The elder heaved a sigh as they had never respected him due to him being a waste, but now that he was suddenly revealed as a third-stage martial artist, it was a different thing.

Lu Zhen's position as the next patriarch will now be guaranteed, and all the resources will be poured into him, even if he makes no contribution points.

"This…" Lu Zhen could feel a strange vibration on his body, as if it were detecting his physique.

He tried to manipulate his body to stop the vibration, but it felt ethereal. Every time he attempted to cease it, the sensation effortlessly passed through, as if Lu Zhen were merely imagining things.

"Wait, you possess the physique of an ancient warrior…" the ancestor's eyes widened as he probed Lu Zhen's body. However, he looked around cautiously.

"Sigh," Ancestor Lu sighed as he gazed at Lu Zhen and sent a voice transmission.

"Do you wish to understand the reason behind your physique and how it enables the direct absorption of qi into your body?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhen's eyes widened as he nodded.

"First-stage martial artists are truly formidable," he thought to himself. However, since the ancestor hadn't mentioned his unique abilities yet and appeared to be unaware of them, Lu Zhen inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ancestor Lu…" Mother Lu spoke loudly when she saw him probing Lu Zhen. Although she was somewhat surprised when the ancestor mentioned "ancient warrior."

"Alright, alright, I won't do anything to your son," he sighed.

"You may all disperse now." Ancestor Lu addressed the elders and disciples, who had expressions filled with admiration.

"Yes, Ancestor." Everyone responded unanimously, their voices filled with reverence.

"It appears that Lu Zhen has truly gained the favor of the Ancestor."

"Sigh, it will be beneficial for the family, as we will acquire a genius who can help us obtain more resources."

"It's for the best." The elders excitedly communicated with each other via voice transmission as they respectfully departed.

Soon, the hall was empty, with only the ancestor, Mother Lu, Father Lu, and Lu Zhen left behind.

"Does he know about 'that'?" Ancestor Lu said as he looked at Mother Lu.

Mother Lu just shook her head, indicating that she hadn't told him about it yet.

Ahem!

"Alright, then this will be a lengthy explanation," Ancestor Lu said as he coughed a little.

"Do you know the history of this world, my boy?" Ancestor Lu looked at Lu Zhen and asked.

"No," Lu Zhen shook his head. He was genuinely clueless about these matters, as the previous host had not been interested in them, so there were no memories about it in Lu Zhen's mind.

Ancestor Lu was left speechless.
