Lu Yu remained seated in his original spot without moving, only opening his eyes.
He couldn’t move. However, the Star Soul within his body was activated.
The murderous star soul stirred, and a chilling, razor-sharp aura erupted from his body, locking onto the hundreds of members of the Sunset Alliance outside the light barrier.
The laughter abruptly ceased due to the chilling aura.
Many people’s faces not only stiffened but also turned pale.
Because what Lu Yu unleashed was not just the aura of slaughter, but also an intent to kill filled with brutality and coldness.
The person’s eyes were actually so red—redder than bloodshot eyes, redder than the crimson of raw flesh. They were a strange, demonic red, exuding an eerie and monstrous aura.
A glance, a single word, and the surroundings fell silent as if in a land of the dead.
It was as if the Grim Reaper had swept past them, chilling their blood with fear!
After a moment of silence, the seven members of the Sunset Alliance were the first to regain their composure.
Thinking back to how I was too scared to laugh or speak just because of a single glance, I couldn’t help feeling even more angry.
“Our leader still requests your presence,” a cold voice said. “But this time, it’s to confess your crimes.”
Another person shouted fiercely, “Do you think you can just kill our men and get away with it?”
Lu Yu’s expression completely ignored those people. Instead, he slightly turned his head toward Chen Hui and Lou Xiaoyu and said, “There are twenty-one hours left. When I get back on my feet, I will leave them with nothing but bones. This is the price they must pay for insulting you.”
As he spoke, Lu Yu closed his eyes again.
Lu Yu’s attitude completely enraged the members of the Sunset Alliance.
People from the Luoyu Alliance, no matter where they went in Nanjing, were always respected and feared.
In this city, no matter where one goes, it is always them ignoring others, making people taste the anger of being looked down upon and disregarded.
When did this attitude ever get returned to them?
No one in Nanjing City dares to provoke them; each person is proud and arrogant, how could they tolerate Lu Yu’s contempt?
“Want to die? I’ll grant your wish!” The leader raised his hand and swiftly drew the battle sword from his waist, then heavily swung it at the glowing shield.
This person’s Star Soul is not yet at the fourth level’s peak, but his attack power is already very close to that stage.
As the leader of the Sunset Alliance, his strength naturally has remarkable aspects.
The war blade struck against the light shield.
Vroom!
The mask of light quivered slightly, and the patterns of light flickered.
This slash—has the power to split mountains!
Many people could hear the thunder-like explosion coming from the light mask. The sound waves shattered the green grass on the ground and rushed outward in all directions.
“It’s over!” the swordsman said with a faint smile. This slash was his ultimate move—Piercing Strike.
An ordinary slash, but without armor, it could cut through in one strike!
A warrior from the Sunset Alliance laughed loudly and said, “Do you really think you can survive just by hiding behind a light shield after offending the Sunset Alliance?”
“Little girl, just wait. Once this light shield breaks, I’ll make sure to take good care of you.”
The Sunset Alliance was very confident, waiting for the shield to be broken, and shouted excitedly.
However, the laughter and shouts suddenly ceased in an instant, and their eyes widened in shock.
The star weapon in the attacker’s hand shattered, its power rebounding along the light shield and surging upward from the palm to the wrist.
“Crack!”
People heard the bones in the attacker’s arm crackling, then twisting at an odd angle.
“This—”
The members of the Sunset Alliance were shocked once again.
The first time was because of a single glance from Lu Yu, and now it’s actually because of a light barrier!
The mask remained intact, with the white glowing patterns on its surface still flowing like water.
“If one person isn’t enough, then count me in too!” shouted another person among the seven members of the Sunset Alliance.
Boom!
His fist struck the light shield, shattering the bones in his arm, yet the shield remained intact.
“This defense shield is a bit different.” People around inhaled sharply. It not only could block attacks, but it seemed to be able to reflect all the damage back.
“It seems this should be a defensive shield with a certain amount of defense value,” Captain Zhao sneered. “Aren’t these kinds of things just like armor? As long as you reduce the defense value to zero, it’s useless.”
“That’s right,” another person said. “There are six hundred of us. I really don’t know what this light shield relies on to withstand a combined attack from so many people.”
“What are we waiting for! Attack!” Captain Zhao shouted loudly, and five to six hundred people swung their fists and star soldiers together.
The combined force of five or six hundred people, like a fierce wind whipping up a storm, crashed down upon the light barrier.
Boom!
The power shook the void as if it were fragile glass, producing a clinking, trembling sound.
The ground in front of the mask split open completely.
Cracks over a foot wide radiated outward from the center of the light barrier, spreading in all directions. The fissures extended for dozens of meters, resembling grievous wounds upon the earth, shocking to behold.
However, with the mask as the boundary!
The grass inside the mask swayed gently with the wind, the ground remained smooth and even, without a single crack.
“This is not an ordinary defense shield!” One of the onlookers noticed something unusual and couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air. For the first time, they began to seriously examine Lou Xiaoyu.
“The person who can earn Lu Yu’s respect must be extraordinary.” More people turned their attention toward Lou Xiaoyu.
The first attack by the five or six hundred members of the Sunset Alliance failed, instead causing their star weapons to shatter and their arms to go numb.
“How could this happen!”
They had never thought that anyone’s defensive capabilities could withstand a combined attack from five or six hundred people.
“Keep attacking until you succeed.”
The seven people at the forefront roared together.
In the face of so many, we cannot let the Sunset Alliance lose face.
“Yes, keep attacking.”
“Even if it’s a fourth-level demon, with five or six hundred of us, we can still wear him down to death!”
A group of people, enraged, began another attack.
The second wave of attack still failed to break through the defense shield.
“Again!”
Never before had the Sunset Alliance gathered so many members to attack a single individual, except for high-ranking demons.
They couldn’t afford to lose face.
One strike, two strikes…
No one could remember exactly how high the combined damage value had stacked up to when more than six hundred people worked together.
In his ears, there was nothing but the thunderous explosions caused by the energy shield being struck, one after another.
One strike, ten strikes, a hundred strikes, a thousand strikes…
The ground outside the energy shield collapsed by several feet, yet the shield itself remained intact.
The people from the Sunset Alliance changed their expressions.
They had never seen such a strong defensive capability before.
Time ticked away second by second; this round of attacks lasted for an hour, yet achieved absolutely no effect.
People were even more astonished.
With defensive capabilities like this, whoever manages to win this woman’s heart would essentially possess a completely invincible sanctuary.
At this moment, someone finally shouted out, “I remember now! This woman is Lao Xiaoyu. She was a junior at Nanjing University, a girl who was absolutely hopeless in combat. After the apocalypse, no one wanted to team up with her. When, when did she become so strong!”
The person recalled. At the beginning of the apocalypse, there was a woman in complete chaos, unable to even grasp the most basic combat knowledge.
He had once teamed up with this woman, attracted by her beauty. However, an hour later, he gave up.
He didn’t want to risk his life to protect a woman.
It’s been a few months, and everything has changed.
A defense that five or six hundred people couldn’t break through was actually sustained by that woman who couldn’t even learn to fight.
“Yeah, I remember now. She couldn’t fight at all before; just a while ago, she was barely surviving by relying on supplies from the city’s military. How come, after only two months apart, she’s suddenly gained such abilities?”
A small number of people remembered this woman.
There were her former classmates and people who had once formed teams with her. Some individuals, believing others’ words, abandoned this girl right at the beginning of the team formation.
And now, what they can’t imagine is that the woman they considered merely a burden is actually someone Lu Yu, an expert of such high caliber, values greatly.
They made a mistake, they really made a mistake!
Bang!
Before the mask of light, a warrior retreats; his arm, crushed as if by a boulder, is a mangled mess of blood and flesh.
“My hands!” the man screamed, hugging his arms and staggering backward. His health points had already started decreasing due to the recoil.
However, when there were still two thousand hit points left, he had already wanted to stop.
However, a sudden reactive force emerged from the mask, as if it had sensed his lowest health point and launched a counterattack. His health was instantly reduced by more than 1,900 points, nearly killing him from the shock.
“Everyone, be careful! If your health drops too low, the shield will automatically counterattack.” The man stepped back with his arms crossed, his recovery slowing down, prompting him to call for help. A figure resembling a team leader shouted out orders loudly.
If even a single light shield cannot be shattered by the Lu Yu Alliance, what face will they have left in the future?
Someone left, and within half an hour, another two or three hundred people arrived.
Ten squad leaders, two senior squad leaders, and eight hundred warriors—this accounted for nearly two-thirds of the combat strength of the Sunset Alliance.
Boom!
Attack after attack struck the energy shield, and the faces of everyone present turned pale.
Because they had already been attacking continuously for ten hours.
Except for the severe injuries suffered by their own people due to the backlash force, nothing inside the light shield had changed.
“This, such defensive power, is truly invincible,” even the people from the Sunset Alliance were astonished.
More warriors from the Sunset Alliance arrived.
One thousand soldiers, twelve captains—
Never before had anyone seen so many members of the Sunset Alliance attack together.
There were people crowding in front of the mask.
But no one could break through the protective shield.
It grew dark, and in the attacks of these people, it became even darker.
A squad leader from the Sunset Alliance waved for everyone to stop attacking, realizing that this energy shield was beyond their capability to break.
This defensive capability was in Nanjing all along, yet no one noticed it. They’re just too foolish.
The squad leader roared in anger, “I don’t believe that Lu Yu will stay inside like a coward for the rest of his life. Are you going to hide behind women’s skirts forever? If you’ve got the guts, come out and face me!”
“There are still eight hours left.” Lu Yu opened his eyes slowly once again, staring at the other person, and said, “One thousand people? Very well!”
Lu Yu closed his eyes again; he was waiting too.
The integration of the myriad poisons was proceeding slowly, and each poison eroded his body during the merging process.
If it weren’t for his Ten-Thousand-Poison Body, he would have dissolved into bones long ago.
At this moment, the surroundings became extremely quiet.
The members of the Sunset Alliance ceased their attacks, knowing that breaking through the defense was hopeless, so they were waiting for Lu Yu to come out on his own.
The people around felt that the air was somewhat suffocating, like the calm before a storm.
Time continued to pass, second by second. The silver moon sank in the west, and the eastern sky had already turned into a pale dawn.
People’s hearts became more tense.
Someone murmured to themselves, “Lu Yu, are you really going to face the entire Sunset Alliance alone?”
“A person with crowd-attack skills challenging an entire organization—it’s destined to become the most thrilling battle in Nanjing!”
Many people became excited, waiting for Lu Yu to stand up.
The sky brightened, and the morning sun began to rise slowly, illuminating the earth.
The sunlight gradually moved across the plain, and in an instant, as it dispelled the darkness, it fell upon Lu Yu’s body!
“Boom!”
Lu Yu stood up. The moment he rose to his feet, he took one step forward and was already outside the protective light field.
He moved with a single step, and three thousand green swords surged forth from between his fingers.
Bang!
Flames erupted from the green sword as it lunged toward the squad leader who had shouted earlier.
“This is exactly the moment I’ve been waiting for.” The squadron leader laughed heartily as a layer of armor instantly materialized on his body.
“Have you come here to die? I’ll grant your wish!” Lu Yu said coldly, his right index finger lightly flicking the green sword beside him.
Vroom!
All the green swords trembled in the air, increasing from three thousand to five thousand, and fell like a rain of blades upon the captain.
Before the first thousand swords were drawn, the armor on the squad leader’s body had already shattered.
The remaining four thousand blades sliced through the squad leader’s body, tearing through flesh and blood.
In the blink of an eye, a squad leader from the Sunset Alliance was instantly killed.
“My God, my eyes must be failing me,” cried a member of the Sunset Alliance.
The squadron leader’s strength ranks within the top five in the Sunset Alliance.
How could this happen? Can a squadron leader not withstand even a single move?
Lu Yu’s voice turned cold. “One thousand people, huh? You’re pushing me to massacre them all. Don’t expect me to hold back!”
