Lv Zi-Ming was a mature man. Even though the family's patriarch had died, the old man didn't panic as much as Lv Hua. Instead, he seemed unusually calm.
He knew this was not the time to panic.
Now that Lv Song-Liang was dead, he no longer had the support of a supreme grandmaster.
He had to calm down and help the Lv family get through these dangerous times.
Despite Lv Hua's fears, Lv Zi-Ming calmly drove as he comforted Lv Hua.
"It's useless, Dad. He's too strong. He's like a demon from hell. There's no way he will let me live. He won't let me off for sure. After what I did in Jiangdong, there's no way he will spare me. He'll cut me to pieces. Dad, I'm dead meat. I'm a goner..."
Lv Hua was beside himself with fear. He sat slumped in the seat as he cried with tears and snot on his face.
Lv Hua had lost all hope.
The moment Lv Hua saw Ye Fan defeat his grandfather, Lv Hua had collapsed to the floor.
He had almost resigned himself to the same fate as his grandfather.
If Lv Hua's father didn't yank him aside in the nick of time, Lv Hua would have probably ended up like He Chen and the others and died before sinking to the bottom of West Lake.
"Stop it! You are a man. How could you lose heart? How can you call yourself my son and the progeny of the Lv family?" Lv Zi-Ming was agitated when he heard what Lv Hua said and yelled at him angrily.
He was so disappointed with his son.
"D-dad, I don't want to lose hope either. But I'm at my wit's end. He's too strong. We can't outdo him. Why don't you hand me over to him? Since he is out to get me, the family might have a chance of surviving if I die," said Lv Hua as he cried. He had become despondent and wanted his father to hand himself to Ye Fan.
It seemed Lv Hua had genuinely lost all hope.
Then again, it wasn't the first time Lv Hua crossed paths with Ye Fan.
Ye Fan had gotten Lv Hua in big trouble while they were in the Amazon rainforest, so Lv Hua had witnessed Ye Fan's prowess with his own eyes.
Lv Hua had only dared to wreak havoc on Jiangdong because he thought Ye Fan was dead.
Now that Ye Fan had returned even stronger and killed Lv Song-Liang with a single blow, Lv Hua was completely overwhelmed by Ye Fan's strength.
He desperately wanted to live, but he didn't know if he could.
He had lusted after Qiu Mu-Cheng and dreamed of taking over Ye Fan's legacy in Jiangdong.
Any one of his actions was enough for Ye Fan to kill him.
Lv Hua knew that he had committed truly unforgivable sins, so it wasn't hard to see why he was beginning to despair.
PAK!
