"And he said…" Lu Hanli's expression darkened as it showed Lu Qing's inner thoughts, his voice barely above a whisper as he recalled the memory. "And he said, 'That's the arrogance that will doom us all.'"
Lu Sheng tilted his head. "What did he mean by that?"
Lu Qing hesitated, his eyes reflecting deep, personal regret. "My brother believed that strength alone wasn't enough. He called our clan a blunt weapon. He warned me that the Lu Clan's power, no matter how great, could be blinded by its own hubris. He told me to be sharp, not an idiot who falls for obvious traps. He said enemies in the shadows don't fight fair. They'll wait, plan, and strike where we least expect it."
Lu Sheng frowned but remained silent.
"And now I believe in his words. No matter how powerful he is, he can't be in two places at the same time. Only he is powerful, and the rest of us are just idiots, lazy and drunk on our clan's legacy, hiding under his protection."
