Chapter 173 Qiankun Small World
"Offend the Bai Xue City Lord?" Lv Yan’s brows slightly furrowed.
More than a decade ago, the Lu Family, a Great Family of Lanqu County City, was virtually wiped out overnight, personally by the Prince. The event had greatly shaken the entire Lanqu County.
People only knew that the Lu Family had defied the Prince, but few knew the real reason.
"The Lu Family Patriarch had a son named Lu Tao. This Lu Tao, extremely domineering and oppressive, capitalized on his family’s power to behave tyrannically in Lanqu County City. He was excessively lecherous, and the women he set his eyes on almost never escaped his clutches. Eventually, Lu Tao encountered Bai Xue and was astounded by her beauty and, true to his nature, immediately tried to take her by force. However, Bai Xue’s strength far exceeded his, and even though he had many of the Lu Family’s guards with him, he ultimately could not escape being slain by Bai Xue on the spot."
"After the son of the Lu Family Patriarch was killed, the Lu Family, of course, sought revenge. At that time, the Lu Family dispatched a large number of powerhouses to kill Bai Xue and avenge Lu Tao. Several powerhouses from the Lu Family’s Dao Spirit Realm were mobilized, but Bai Xue, with her formidable strength, managed to kill several Lu Family combatants and, though wounded, escaped their encirclement. The Lu Family, unwilling to give up, continued their pursuit of the Bai Xue City Lord. However, the next day, the Prince was enraged and led the elites from the Prince Manor to utterly eliminate the Lu Family overnight."
"It is because of this incident that the news of the Bai Xue City Lord being the daughter of the Prince came out. Otherwise, even those Great Families wouldn’t have known about it," Huo Chunyang said gravely.
Of course, although the news spread, most people didn’t understand the specifics, only a few knew the full details of the incident.
"It seems that the Prince cares a lot about the Bai Xue City Lord," Lv Yan nodded lightly.
The Prince, if he did not care about the Bai Xue City Lord to a certain extent, why would he have eradicated the Lu Family, a family with substantial influence in Lanqu County, overnight?
Removing such a family had a huge impact. If it had not touched the Prince’s bottom line, even the Prince would not have lightly acted against a Great Family.
This showed just how important the Bai Xue City Lord was in the eyes of the Prince.
"Whoosh!"
