Level Up in Martial World

Chapter 194: Li Jiao

Knock! Knock!

"Who is it?" Lu Zhen frowned as he tapped into a strand of his mental energy and sensed who was outside, his eyes flashing with a blue hue.

"It's me, young master," Li Jiao's voice came from outside.

Lu Zhen's face turned expressionless as he said, "Come in."

Li Jiao expressionlessly opened the door, wearing a long piece of cloth that covered the entirety of her body. A frown appeared on Lu Zhen's face as he looked at her.

"What is it?"

"Young master..." Li Jiao hesitated, pausing for some time before a resigned look appeared on her face as she closed her eyes.

She let go of the clothes, revealing her bare body to Lu Zhen as she tightly closed her eyes, expecting any reaction from him. However, she felt a cold wind blow over her as she continued to wait, but Lu Zhen didn't even move a single bit, staring right at her as if his gaze was piercing her soul.

After waiting for a long time, she confusedly opened her eyes to see his crimson eyes staring right at her without any lust flashing in his eyes.

"Are you done?" Lu Zhen's cold tone rang in the ears of Li Jiao.

"Young master, didn't you want my body..."

"What do you think of me, Li Jiao?" His voice was tinged with anger; however, his face was still expressionless. As the adaptability skill leveled up, he had been able to control his emotions perfectly, to the point that the bloodline of the Volgrith didn't give him thoughts of killing and mating all the time.

That's right, due to his bloodline, Lu Zhen was more lustful and a killer, even when he didn't take the form of it.

However, it was a very subtle change that Lu Zhen had failed to notice. Now that he had adapted to the mind manipulation done by his bloodline, he could finally think logically when it came to lust and such.

"That might probably be the reason that Xia Mei was so lustful..." Lu Zhen thought as he internally frowned; however, outwardly, he was still calm and collected as he looked at the milf body without even a flinch in his gaze.

Li Jiao felt a cold wave wash over her as her eyes widened with realization. He had never shown any interest in her until now, even when he first met her in the brothel. She was the one who assumed that Lu Zhen wanted her body.

"Didn't you see the excitement of the soldiers when you came here?"

When Lu Yuan heard this, he secretly gritted his teeth; however, outwardly, he maintained a cold expression.

"So what of it? Anyone can do it if they are the young master of the family and the youngest second-stage martial artist ever in Phoenix City."

Hearing Lu Yuan, she just shook her head with a sigh. "You are still prejudiced against the young master."

"What do you mean I am prejudiced? You know that in the military, strength is revered the most. He must have shown his strength, and naturally, they will have pure fanaticism," Lu Yuan said with an all-knowing tone.

Lu Yuan's sister couldn't refute the claim as she found the words possible and true as per her current understanding.

Suddenly, they both heard footsteps as a hulking young master entered with black hair and the distinctive red-crimson eyes that seemed to pierce one's soul with just a gaze.

Lu Yuan's sister's eyes lit up when she saw Lu Zhen, and she hurriedly greeted him.

"Young master, we have news from the battlefield."

Lu Zhen nodded his head, seeing Lu Yuan at the back, as a devilish smile graced his lips.

"Seeing how good Miss Mood is, I suppose the news is good."

Hearing this, she paused as her expression turned strange.

"You see, our Lu family army almost defeated the Xia family, but...."

"But the Huang family came?..." Lu Zhen said with a knowing smile.

"Yes, young master," she said with some astonishment. "How did you know, young master?"

"It was pretty obvious at this point," Lu Zhen muttered as he looked at Lu Yuan again, a glint flashing in his eyes.
