Chapter 166: Lu Hao

Blades flashed, splitting the sky!

The hundred-zhang-long green light slashed towards the heavens, pressing down as if the sky itself were collapsing.

The void slashed by the green light seemed to be split apart, revealing darkness beyond the torn虚空.

The person beneath Lu Minghai was suffocating, able to feel the immense power contained within this single slash.

With just this one slash, we can take out most of them in an instant!

“Is this really that good-for-nothing brat that Lu Minghai was talking about?”

“My goodness, this… this skill is something even a Level 6 Celestial God System has never seen before.”

People cried out in alarm; some murmured in discussion, and even those who had previously looked down on Lu Yu with disdain now felt fear.

Liu Jin let out a piteous cry.

He was no longer proud, let alone arrogant; this single slash severed all his will.

Not even a thought of resistance, let alone the idea of escape, remained.

He could only watch as the Heaven-Sundering Blade descended, that single stroke infused with the power of one hundred thousand demon-slaying swords, its accumulated force seeming to crush all in its path like withered straw.

The smugness on Lu Minghai’s face vanished, replaced by shock.

“This brat, where did he get such a powerful attack skill!”

He watched as the Heaven-Sundering Blade descended. In the instant it reached Liu Jin’s head, it split open Liu Jin’s cranial crown, and then tore through Liu Jin’s chest!

The Heavenly Blade is composed of tens of thousands of long swords. When it struck Liu Jin, the countless blades suddenly exploded, slicing Liu Jin’s body into a shower of blood raining down from the sky, leaving not even a single piece of bone intact.

Then—

Boom!

The heavenly blade slashes down onto the earth—

The earth rises and falls, as if thunderbolts from the heavens are striking the ground!

The blade cut into the earth, creating a fissure a hundred zhang long and nearly ten meters wide, like a terrifying wound torn open in the land, splitting from the valley up to the mountain peak!

A rumbling echo reverberated through the valley, causing Lu Minghai’s group to turn pale with shock, while a few individuals began trembling all over.

The Heavenly Blade vanished, leaving only a sky filled with green light.

Only drops of blood remained where Liu Jin had stood, splattered into the cracks of the stone, as if the man who had been arrogantly shouting just moments ago had never even existed!

“Gulp!”

Someone’s heart quivered as they swallowed a lump of saliva, their face turning ashen like a ghost’s.

“Ah, Minghai—” The voice of a middle-aged man in his forties beside Lu Minghai cracked, his heart pounding with alarm as he wondered, “What on earth is going on?”

Lu Yu swung his blade in one swift motion, the powerful gusts of wind roaring as they billowed his clothes.

He retracted his right hand and glared at Lu Minghai with a cold shout: “You won’t be able to block this slash!”

“Lu Yu, your area attack skill—” Lu Minghai’s mind raced, continuously comparing what he was seeing with the area attack skills he himself possessed.

Finally, he thought of something, and his face turned even paler!

“What’s wrong with my skills?” Lu Yu looked at Lu Minghai coldly and said, “Do you still remember what I said just now? I won’t kill you, so there’s no need for you to turn so pale!”

Lu Minghai’s heart was overwhelmed with joy because of Lu Yu’s words.

However, Lu Minghai still showed extreme anger on his face. Trying not to lose his composure, he said, “Lu Yu, you know how powerful the Lu family is now. How dare you sever the roots of the Lu family!”

It was precisely this single stroke that he could no longer control!

He had often beaten Lu Yu so badly that he couldn’t get up before. The sudden shift in their positions was something he really struggled to accept.

Surviving in the end times is different from before; there are no laws to constrain people in this era.

Lu Minghai knew that sometimes one had to endure in order to survive.

He is no match for Lu Yu now, so he has to endure it.

One day, when he becomes Lu Yu’s rival, that will be the moment he forces Lu Yu to kneel and cry out in agony!

Lu Yu looked at Lu Minghai’s angry expression and sneered, “Lu Minghai, you seem quite pleased, surviving by my hand. Are you really that happy? Pretending to be furious while secretly overjoyed, aren’t you?”

As he spoke, Lu Yu clenched his fist and said, “In the past, I was greatly taken care of by you. There’s no way I’d let you leave with a smile today.”

Lu Minghai’s expression suddenly changed, and the feigned anger on his face vanished.

He was somewhat alarmed and asked, “Lu Yu, what are you going to do?”

Lu Yu stepped forward coldly and said, “I’ll break your limbs, and everything below, as I said, I want to eradicate the Lu family’s bloodline! I won’t kill you today and will spare your life, so you can go back and tell them that I’m back.”

As he spoke, Lu Yu took another step forward, roaring in fury: “When I return to the Lu family, I’ll slaughter every last one of you!”

“You… you dare!” Lu Minghai was well aware of Lu Yu’s methods, and the ecstatic joy in his heart had long vanished.

Lu Minghai took a step back, his voice trembling as he said, “Lu Yu, do you even know how many cities the Lu family currently controls? Do you know how many powerful experts we have? If you dare lay a finger on me, prepare yourself for the Lu family’s experts to hunt you down!”

“Back then, I said, ‘If I ever return to the Lu family again, it will be the day I destroy your entire Lu clan. No matter how many experts you have, you’ll all die!'”

Lu Yu let out a fierce shout, rushed toward Lu Minghai, and said, “I’ll cripple you. It’ll be enough for just one person to send you back.”

Lu Yu had long strides, but he didn’t expect to be blocked by someone.

The man was in his thirties, with a face full of coarse features. He treated Lu Yu with relatively respectful manners and said, “Friend, the Lu family currently controls the mines in eighteen cities. Do you want to die?!”

“What the hell are you?! Get lost!” Lu Yu shouted, raising his right hand. In an instant, more than ten thousand demon-slaying swords flew out.

The roadblock didn’t even have time to cry out in agony before being cleaved into mincemeat by the Demon-Slaying Sword.

The people in the back felt their hearts turn cold, each of them gasping in shock.

“Lu Yu, you dare!”

Lu Minghai quickly stepped back and shouted, “Uncle Li, what are you looking at? Hurry up and save me!”

Hundreds of people stood there, thinking about Lu Yu’s sword strike, unsure whether they should even move!

Seeing that no one moved, Lu Minghai immediately shouted, “Uncle Li, help me! If you save me, I’ll have my father give you part of the mine’s control rights!”

Obviously, these words were very effective.

The middle-aged man in his forties felt his heart stir.

At this moment, Lu Yu’s cold gaze fell upon the crowd of over a hundred people, as he said in a deep voice, “Do you all have some connection with the Lu family?”

Being scanned by Lu Yu’s gaze, half of them felt it was no different from death!

“No, no, we don’t know him.”

“We have no relation to the Lu family!”

Dozens of people frantically shook their heads and began to retreat backward!

Lu Yu said with hatred and anger, “I don’t intend to spare anyone associated with the Lu family. A trashy family like that—everyone who interacts with them is trash too! So not a single one of you will walk away!”

As he spoke, Lu Yu turned his head to look at Zhang Qing and said, “Zhang Qing, you mentioned earlier that someone was needed to scout the path, right? Leave one alive for me; the rest can be handled according to your plan.”

“Haha, I understand!” Zhang Qing burst into laughter. He had wanted to grab all these people to use them as scouts earlier on.

However, these people had a grudge against Lu Yu.

Given the current relationship among the five of them, he could not interfere in their personal matters.

And now that Lu Yu had spoken, Zhang Qing was more than happy to oblige.

“It seems the path ahead is perilous?” Lao Wu didn’t show the slightest hint of kindness and actually struck first.

Wang Jilong was inherently a ruthless person; otherwise, he couldn’t have become the Blood Eye.

Four people can kill a million monsters; facing just a hundred, what could they possibly fear?

Lu Yu, indifferent to what Zhang Qing and others intended to do, took step by step toward Lu Minghai.

Lu Minghai had already turned around and ran toward a crack.

Boom!

The Ten Thousand Demon-Slaying Sword slashed down across Lu Minghai’s left arm.

Ah!

Lu Minghai screamed in pain and ran even faster, clutching his severed arm.

At this moment, someone was still coming in through the crack.

Several people successively passed through the crack, and upon seeing Lu Minghai’s appearance, they were all taken aback instantly.

Lu Minghai was overjoyed and ran even faster, shouting loudly, “Uncle, save me! This little bastard Lu Yu wants to kill me!”

Suddenly, his left leg felt light, and his body immediately lost balance.

Lu Minghai crawled forward with one hand and one arm, like a maggot trying to cross over the narrow gap in the sky.

The person who rushed in saw Lu Yu and his expression turned to one of intense hatred. He shouted fiercely, “Lu Yu, you dare to kill your own kin!”

“Lu Hao, go fuck yourself and get out of my way,” Lu Yu said, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the person who had just shouted at him. His murderous intent, already present, became even more pronounced.

Boom!

Lu Yu raised his hand and slashed out with a sword.

Buzz!

In the air, the ringing of swords deafened the ears. The Ten Thousand Demon-Slaying Swords transformed into a colossal blade, slashing toward Lu Minghai, and at the same time, split through Lu Yu who stood in a straight line behind him.

“You little brat, when did you become so powerful?” Lu Hao exclaimed in surprise. But he quickly raised his hand, and a lightsaber slashed out from his palm, striking against the giant blade transformed from Zhan Mo Jian!

Bang!

The great blade shattered, and countless swords of demon-slaying rushed toward Lu Yu from all directions.

At the same time, Lu Minghai let out another scream of pain as his other arm was also broken!

“I said I would break off your four limbs. Do you think anyone can stop me?”

Lu Yu roared, exuding an overwhelming aura of dominance, filled with an unparalleled arrogance and unshakable confidence in his invincibility!

“鸣海, don’t move around. I’ll kill this brat first, then I’ll rescue you.” Seeing that he had actually failed to save Lu Minghai, Lu Hao looked furiously toward Lu Yu, radiant halos bursting forth from his body.

These beams of light shot into the sky and transformed into hundreds of thousands of luminous arrows, rushing toward Lu Yu.

“Second uncle, break his limbs. I want to tear his flesh apart piece by piece!” Lu Minghai, now left with only one leg, shouted furiously with boundless hatred.

“Okay!” nodded Lu Hao, looking at Lu Yu as if he were a dead man!

Lu Yu burst into maniacal laughter and said, “What’s this? You brought a useless one here. Do you think he can save you?”

Lu Yu ignored the radiant rain as countless beams of boundless cyan light erupted from his body.

The green light transformed into a demon-slaying sword, cutting down fiercely towards the light arrow.

Boom, boom, boom—

Each strike felt like a clash of a million forces.

The power of the Light Arrow surpassed even the Demon-Slaying Sword, which shattered completely.

However, such a short amount of time was enough for Lu Yu to rush to Lu Minghai’s side.

Lu Yu raised his hand and said, “I’ll break your other leg!”

“You dare!”

Lu Hao also rushed over, furious, and said, “Right in front of me, you still dare to act so arrogantly.”

Lu Yu, unwilling to back down, said, “Old man, you weren’t up to it a few years ago—can you still handle it now?”

“Die!”

Lu Hao coldly uttered a single word, then immediately threw a powerful punch.

Vroom!

Lu Yu fights back!

In an instant, above Lu Minghai’s head, the two combatants clashed in hand-to-hand combat, exchanging more than ten moves.

Lu Hao punched through Lu Yu’s chest, but Lu Yu staggered backward, clutching in his hand the only remaining leg of Lu Minghai.

Lu Yu discarded his broken leg, standing proudly as he said, “Now only that final part remains. If you have the skill, keep blocking!”
