"I want to conquer Nexus for our Lu Family. Will you help me achieve this goal?"

Lu Jian heard this and the first thing he wanted to do was shout in the face of Elder Lu Chen. To spout this kind of rubbish was simply preposterous to say the least.

Only a conceited brat would think of such things which was befitting enough for Elder Lu Chen's status at the moment.

Nevertheless, the old Patriarch was wise enough to shut his mouth off in the face of the silent Senior Wan Fei in their midst.

'The young cub really doesn't know how to fear the Tiger just yet.' Patriarch Lu Chen sighed deeply before answering.

Around him, he could see the expression of unbelief on the face of his Clan Elders also.

They were seated around an elegant dining table and perhaps the only one that did not show any reaction at all was the inscrutable Senior Wan Fei.

"HAHAHA! That is a good jest, Elder Lu Chen. Come! Come! Let's drink some more!" In the end, Patriarch Lu Jian could only take a wise detour to avoid any sort of confrontation whatsoever.

He had toiled for almost 2 centuries in politics and knew the exact maneuver given the peculiar circumstance that he faced tonight.

"Cheers!"

"HAHAHA!"

"To Elder Lu Chen's good health and service to the Lu Family!"

The three old male Clan Elders joined their Leader in defusing the situation in order to avoid further embarrassment accrued unto the recently appointed Elder Lu Chen.

But inside they all were laughing and cursing the guts of this bold new Elder. Perhaps the only one who considered Elder Lu Chen's word was the only Lady Elder amongst them, Elder Lu Fen.

'Conquer Nexus for our Lu Family.' This phrase reverberated in Elder Lu Fen's mind and her heart was beating rapidly in response to these brave words appearing so enticingly delicious in her ears right now.

'Now this is what a true man should be!' Elder Lu Fen nodded in approval then looked at her husband in comparison.

Lu Jing may have given her a calm and peaceful life but sometimes this serenity would bring a sense of dullness in her soul.

Three rounds of drinks followed as the table was filled once with camaraderie and laughter.

The old goats around were expert talkers and could entertain anyone from the lowest slave to the highest dignitaries of other cities if necessary.

They have not lived this long to earn no stupidity in their lengthy tenure. Lu Chen allowed all of this to happen and made small talks with his Seniors. He at least gave them this much face in the beginning.

"Why aren't you drinking, Wan Fei? Does the wine not suit your taste at all?" Clark whispered towards the lovely woman at his side.

Although she had changed dresses from earlier but the color still remained ever crimson. She chose this because it was the right color for celebration which suited this event quite perfectly.

The blood red dress hugged her body and if one would look long enough, he could not help but discern two points of proud tips along the hidden valley of her bosom.

And having Lu Chen's lewd personality also did not provide any comfort towards our bored gamer. His little brother has been standing up in attention ever since the feast has started.

'FUCK ME! Where can I find release for this embarrassing situation?'

'And I can't also force myself on my maid servants also!'

'I couldn't live with myself after the deed was done and over!'

'DAMN! Having Wan Fei around is much more troublesome than i anticipated.' Clark complained but he hid his real feelings well enough.

The object of his desire did not even get a sniff of it whatsoever which eased our good gamer's worries.

In the end, he took deep breaths and steadied the guise of a smile on his face to properly hide what he was truly feeling right now.

"I'm fine, Lu Chen. The food is great and the drinks are also of excellent quality." Wan Fei smiled seductively at her prey and even went as far as to take another sip at her untouched glass of one hour.

She would have loved to do nothing else right now but flirt with Clark but still, she could not force herself to do that in front of weaklings like the bunch that surrounded them this evening.

If there was one thing she hated more than anything else was how weak she truly was in front of the real force and true experts in this cultivation world.

This was the reason why she had given up on her husband Ning Bao in the first place.

'The more i get to know you, the more i find out that my decision to follow you here was absolutely not a mistake.' Wan Fei smiled a little as she sipped her wine throughout the conversation.

Thirty more minutes passed of the usual chatter and Clark has gotten a better hold on the top dogs of the Lu Family.

Lu Jian was serious and very much adaptable to any situation which made him a great Patriarch in his own way.

Lu Dong was a shameless pervert and from the start until finish, he simply could not take his eyes off Wan Fei's hot oozing body.

Lu Su was mostly silent and was content to quietly observe the place with a trained and cautious eye. Even now that the dome was already empty of people but he still raked each corner from time to time.

He was as if expecting a monster to go out from those dark angles any second from now. The last Elders were of course the married couple Elders Lu Fen and Lu Jing.

They were vanilla partners in love and it was good for Clark to see this kind of familiar scene that he was rather familiar with.

Having spent this precious time with his Elders, our bored gamer's sentiment for the Lu Clan grew even more than he could have imagined.

'I don't know if this was because of Lu Chen or not but the answer to that doesn't matter anymore.'

With this realization in mind, Clark finally reopened the last halted discussion about his real purpose in coming here.

"I remember a time when you and Elder Lu Jing were like cats and dogs and yet the two of you ended up together. HAHAHA! Are you sure you aren't regretting your decision in picking your man, Elder Lu Fen?"

The lewd Elder Lu Dong got more spirited the more liquor he gorged down his throat.

"I couldn't have been more happier with Lu Jing, Elder Lu Dong. I may have regretted many things in my life but loving my husband isn't one of them. That i can assure you. But thank you for asking."

Elder Lu Fen handled the situation pretty well. The Clan Elders were together since kids and topics like this rarely ever got out of hand these days.

Maybe it did before but at the twilight of their lives, this much smut talk did not affect anyone anymore.

"Cheers to that!" Elder Lu Dong laughed loudly and gulped yet another bottle of wine until its last drop. A few breaths passed in silence and it was at this time that Clark made his reentry.

"Patriarch, I was really quite serious about what i said earlier." Clark said and looked at his Elders with all the seriousness he could muster.

All eyes were on him at the moment and it did not really affect him that much. He neither flinched nor leaned back and these actions were sufficient enough to let his peers know of his earnest intention.

A heavy atmosphere descended on the table and no one dared blink in the succeeding moments. That was true until Patriarch Lu Jian also reciprocated Elder Lu Chen's words with equal severity.

"It seems that you are really confident about your wishes, Elder Lu Chen."

Lu Jian paused and looked at the angelic woman beside the handsome fresh faced boy with a black long beard on his person.

"While I am happy that you think so highly of the Clan's well-being and prosperity but i can't risk the lives of our clansmen and women in order to fulfill an irresponsible want."

Lu Jian finished his words in a grave manner. Even if Senior Wan Fei could defeat or kill Emissary Duan Ru in battle but behind him was the entirety of the Demonic Sword Sect's might.

They would only garner a temporary win but shall ultimately suffer slaughter in its consequence.

"I see." Clark sighed. He was really not expecting a different answer but still, hearing this in his face disappointed him a bit.

'Seems like i have to do it another way then.' Clark was resigned to improvise on his plans.

He would have stood up right then and there to return back to his residence but a female voice broke his inner contemplation.

"Shouldn't we raise a vote on severe matters like this, Patriarch? Elder Lu Chen is already one of us Elders and I think that he already has this right to do so."

The one who raised this question was none other than Elder Lu Fen herself. It was very apparent that this Lady Elder was indeed truly intrigued by this heroic prospect.

She did not know how Elder Lu Chen would accomplish this task but she never believed at all that he would suggest this idea without astute preparation to back him up.

"Okay. Let's vote." Lu Jian shook his head and was fully aware of the futility of such actions.

"You seem happy, Clark." Wan Fei noticed while they were walking slowly unto the night. The vote was 2 to 4 in favor of negating Clark's thoughts for conquest.

The two were now traversing their way back home in leisure and they did not even accept a personal carriage of the Patriarch.

"The night is still young, Wan Fei. Why don't we make it more exciting?"
