Hearing these words, the butler frowned.
The Lu family, after all, inherited its lineage from the Celestial Master Mansion of Mount Longhu. They were a prestigious and orthodox sect, and their actions should be upright and honourable. How could they do something that twisted the facts?
Moreover, the events of today were clear right from wrong. Anyone with eyes could see at a glance how excessive the Lu family had been.
“Master, I am afraid this is inappropriate and will damage our Lu family…”
“Are you teaching me how to do things?” Lu Chuan looked coldly at the butler.
“I would not dare. It is just that this matter was originally our Lu family’s fault. If…”
“Slap!” A loud sound of a slap rang out. Lu Chuan raised his hand and slapped the butler hard across the face.
“Remember, I call the shots in the Lu family, and I also call the shots in the cultivation world. Whatever I say is the fact, then it is the fact!” Lu Chuan snorted coldly. He had absolute certainty that at the Cultivator Grand Gathering tomorrow, Luo Wuji would definitely beg him!
“Get out!”
The butler left, and Lu Chuan finally called another person to arrange this matter.
Almost half an hour after the incident occurred, this news was instantly spread.
The marriage alliance between Luo Wuji and the Lu family had failed!
Luo Wuji had his engagement annulled by the young lady of the Lu family!
Originally, Luo Chen’s engagement had been the subject of heated discussion and attention from the very beginning. Therefore, today’s engagement naturally attracted outside attention, though many people on the internet were still waiting for news. But no one expected that the news they finally waited for would be like this!
“The marriage alliance failed?” Many people were stunned, and the forums exploded.
No one expected such a result!
“This is a good thing. How could my husband look upon that kind of person?” a supporter of Luo Chen announced loudly.
“Look clearly, it is he, Luo Wuji, who was rejected. They do not want him!” someone sneered coldly, followed by a large crowd of people gloating.
“Hmph, it is to be expected. This matter with him, Luo Wuji, has truly disappointed me this time. Seeking a woman’s protection just to save his own life!”
Even many people who previously supported Luo Chen began to mock him.
After all, in their view, even if Luo Chen had lost all his cultivation, he should not seek a marriage alliance just to save his life.
Now it was perfect, he was directly rejected by the other party.
“I suppose this result was actually expected,” someone remarked with emotion.
“He, Luo Wuji, has lost all his cultivation now and is a cripple. Who would still want him?”
“That young lady of the Lu family is heard to be a genius in the cultivation world at the very least, and even a fairy of the cultivation world. He, Luo Wuji, was never worthy of her to begin with, so being rejected is a matter of course!”
“Hmph, delusional to try and climb the social ladder. The dignified number one person in China has actually fallen to this state. It is a waste that I worshipped him so much before!”
“I heard that today, the threshold of the Lu family was trampled broken by people going to congratulate them, while not a single person went to Luo Wuji’s side!”
This news instantly ignited the entire internet the moment it was released, and then it spread.
No one doubted the authenticity of this news. All the messages were smearing Luo Chen, because after all, many people had already analysed that now that Luo Chen had lost all his cultivation, he truly did not match the young lady of the Lu family!
Moreover, very soon, the major famous mountains expressed their stances one after another.
Mount Emei spoke first.
“Congratulations to the number one person in China on his great joy today!”
Mount Qingcheng also spoke.
“Truly a wonderful day for universal celebration. Congratulations to Mr. Luo on his happy marriage!”
Mount Luofu and Mount Wudang also spoke similarly.
This was released after the news broke that the marriage alliance between Luo Chen and the Lu family had failed.
This was clearly intentional mockery and gloating.
Knowing full well that Luo Chen’s marriage alliance had failed, yet deliberately saying such words of blessing was already an obvious mockery.
“Hmph, now even the major famous mountains are laughing at him, Luo Wuji.”
“At the Cultivator Grand Gathering tomorrow, I am afraid Luo Wuji will truly perish.”
This statement received widespread support from everyone.
This time was different from the past, after all, the fact that Luo Chen had lost all his cultivation was almost confirmed.
Whether it was the major famous mountains, or the previous Elder Jin, Yang Fuyun, and the various families in the cultivation world, this time they had made their intentions clear to make a move against Luo Chen.
Previously, Luo Chen and the Lu family were able to form a marriage alliance, benefiting from the protection of the Lu family and Mount Longhu.
Perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope at the Cultivator Grand Gathering.
After all, the Lu family had two people serving as presidents in the Cultivator Association, so they still had some face, more or less.
Moreover, the most important thing was that they had the Celestial Master Mansion of Mount Longhu backing them up.
But precisely at this critical juncture, the marriage alliance failed!
“This is probably fatal for Luo Wuji.”
“I think he is probably so scared now that he wants to flee the country?”
“Although we common people do not understand the cultivation world very well, look, Mount Qingcheng can produce a Qing Mang. What about the other major famous mountains?”
The waters of the cultivation world were indeed too deep. Who knew what low profile but powerful figure might jump out.
“When he, Luo Wuji, killed Divine Doctor Yuan back then, why did he not think of this day?”
“When he forced the head of the Yang family, the descendants of the Dragon Protectors, to kneel back then, why did he not think of this day?”
“When on the grasslands, showing disrespect to a highly respected elder like Elder Jin, why did he not think he would have this day when he slapped Elder Jin?”
Someone listed many of Luo Chen’s crimes!
“Hmph, if anyone is to blame, it is him, Luo Wuji, for being too arrogant. It is one thing to show off in our martial arts world, but he dares to show off in the cultivation world?” someone spoke secretly, clearly a person from the martial arts world speaking out.
And at this moment, the happiest were Cang Songzi and his group.
Their group was now almost arriving at Mount Longhu.
“Hahaha, good, very good!” Yang Fuyun clapped his hands in approval.
He had previously been worried that if Luo Chen and the Lu family formed a marriage alliance, with the Lu family’s connections, it would be troublesome if the Celestial Master Mansion of Mount Longhu was truly dragged into it.
After all, no one could say for sure whether the old Celestial Master was dead or not.
What if this old Celestial Master was not dead?
Then they would have caused a massive disaster.
But hearing that the marriage alliance had failed at this moment instantly made Yang Fuyun, Elder Jin, and others happy.
They themselves did not have the ability to deal with Luo Chen before, but now it was different.
Luo Chen had lost all his cultivation. If Luo Chen stood before them right now, they had the confidence to slap him into pieces with a single palm!
“It seems there is no need for this old man to take action personally,” Cang Songzi said faintly, a trace of mockery crossing the corner of his mouth.
Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Lu family at this moment!
“Bang!” A hundreds of years old golden thread nanmu table was smashed to pieces by a single palm strike from Lu Heshan.
“What exactly are you trying to do?” Lu Heshan stared coldly at Lu Chuan, naturally questioning the news Lu Chuan had spread.
He, Lu Heshan, had always acted uprightly and honourably. Now his own son was twisting right and wrong, black and white like this?
“Father.” Lu Chuan was not afraid at all, but instead sighed.
“By doing this, I make him, Luo Wuji, feel the pressure. Tomorrow, he will definitely beg us to protect him!”
