Chapter 239: The Mountain in the Sky

Over time, more people arrived.

The Tian Shen organization, allied with the Lu family, has arrived. They’ve also sent a Star Lord!

This is one of the strongest organizations rivaling the Lu family, and it is extremely mysterious!

Poison Fang Demon Lord, Blue Mountain Demon Lord…

Several more Demon Lords arrived, which made the Lu family’s momentum even stronger.

Everyone who managed to come here has some connection with the Lu family.

So many Demon Lords have come rushing in, and so many organizations have sent their representatives; this is truly a grand banquet!

Suddenly—

Fiery clouds rise over the cool little town!

A graceful and alluring figure emerged from the flames, riding a fiery dragon as it descended to the ground!

“Xiaoxiao, the star master of Fanggang, she has come as well.”

This is quite different.

This person is one of Lu Yu’s men. His arrival means he must be here to help Lu Yu.

The remaining魔lords in the small city all stood up.

That’s炎龙’s ability.

Compared to other dragon clan powers, the Flame Dragon is almost synonymous with immortality!

An immortal Star Lord is more than enough for Xiao Xiao to take on two opponents at once, or even three!

Several demon lords were moved!

Xiaoxiao had never used the power of the Dragon Clan in battle before, but now, upon her first appearance, she displayed the Flame Dragon ability. This was not only a show of force but also a demonstration of support for Lu Yu!

Lu Tianming came forward to greet them with a smile and said, “Master Xiaoxiao, it’s been a long time. Won’t you come inside for a moment?”

“No, I will stay here and watch your Lu family fall apart,” Xiaoxiao refused Lu Tianming’s invitation and sat down at a window seat in a teahouse closest to Lu Yu’s villa.

At the moment Xiaoxiao sat down, the restaurant was filled to capacity.

Lu Tianming’s lips twitched, and a cold, dark glint flashed in his eyes.

Unlike Huanying and Fentian, in this world, there is nothing that is not driven by interest.

In recent years, the Lu family has conducted several business dealings with Huang Ying and Fan Tian, and the relationship between both parties has been quite good.

There were even occasions when Lu Family encountered difficulties, and Huang Ying and Fan Tian stepped in to help the Lu Family overcome the crises, thereby dispelling the Lu Family’s suspicions about Huang Ying and Fan Tian having any connection with Lu Yu.

This time, inviting Huang Ying and Fan Tian was because few people knew that, just like Xue Hai, the two had emerged from the Dragon’s Nest eight years ago and are now on the verge of breaking through the Star Sovereign limit.

What does it matter if Lu Yu comes, with three魔主 at the Star Master limit guarding the place?

Even with that sword, it’s impossible to pose any real threat!

A small city, yet filled with an endless number of powerful experts. Even a ninth-level King, upon entering this city, would be overwhelmed by the dense, lingering aura in the air, unable to lift their head.

Weaker individuals struggle to take a single step here; even breathing feels as though the air has turned heavy as stone.

Many people retreated; they could no longer stay here!

However, many people still rushed to this small town.

If they could witness this great battle, it might be their chance to surpass the ninth level.

More and more people gathered around, and many began to pay attention to the relationship between Lu Yu and the Lu family—why did such a deep hatred exist between them!

“Lu Yu was originally a member of the Lu family, but he defected. I heard that when Lu Yu was still under eighteen years old, he seriously injured one of the family elders. If the Lu family hadn’t covered it up, Lu Yu might still be in prison now!”

Someone found some astonishing news.

“Rebellion, rebellion!”

Many people immediately became angry.

Someone said, “What a morally corrupt fellow! I always thought he was an upright person. Who would have expected that he would even dare to harm his elders and now seeks to destroy the Lu family? How can someone like him still be alive?”

Someone in the crowd laughed and said, “That’s not right! The information you received must have come from the Lu family. They’ve shortened the facts—how can you actually believe them!”

“What’s wrong? Is the real truth not like this?”

Many people pricked up their ears, eager to hear what this person had to say.

“In this city, the elders know the old stories the best,” one person said, smirking coldly toward the Lu family’s direction. “The Lu family has always been very exclusive. They never accepted divorced or remarried women, and they were especially against a woman who wasn’t a virgin. Back then, Lu Yu’s father met a divorced woman outside and insisted on marrying her. The elders of the Lu family and many people in the city were very dissatisfied. Later on, when Lu Yu was born, at least he was a boy carrying the Lu family’s bloodline, so people gradually accepted the situation. However, they were never very kind toward Lu Yu’s family. If you walk around this small city, you can easily hear stories about them anywhere.”

The man paused for a moment, and seeing that even more people had gathered around, he continued, “A few years later, Lu Yu’s father passed away. In such situations, the Lu family typically kept the children but drove the women out of the house. However, Lu Yu’s mother pleaded repeatedly and was temporarily allowed to stay, working as a servant in the Lu household just to see her child. Over time, Lu Yu also faced discrimination from his peers, and even many elders disliked him. Nevertheless, Lu Yu had a fierce determination, which allowed him to hold his ground within the Lu family. However, what you might find unbelievable is that Lu Yu’s act of betrayal was because his mother had nearly been raped by his uncle. The person Lu Yu severely injured was exactly the man who had attempted to assault his mother back then!”

The surroundings were silent, yet filled with many angry people, their inner fury burning even more intensely.

They never expected to be deceived.

The Lu family is being utterly unreasonable; even allowing the mother to stay with her child is not permitted.

Even his own family members were raped by him. Is such a beast still worth saving?

The man’s voice was cold as he spoke: “The so-called family shame that we are reluctant to expose publicly is precisely why the Lu family neither reported the matter to the police nor arrested Lu Yu. Later, Lu Yu, unleashing over ten years of pent-up anger all at once, severely injured a cousin who had bullied him. This incident proved that the relationship between Lu Yu and the Lu family had deteriorated beyond repair, making it impossible for them to remain together any longer. Afterward, an agreement was reached between Lu Yu and the family: Lu Yu would leave the family and head south, never to return to the Lu household again. In exchange, the Lu family would take care of Lu Yu’s mother and ensure nothing like what happened with his uncle would ever happen again. Lu Yu agreed. He left and stayed in Fanggang for four years until the apocalypse arrived. However, the ‘care’ Lu Yu’s mother received from the Lu family was nothing more than being treated like a servant; simply having enough to eat was already a luxury. The only reason she didn’t leave was because she was waiting endlessly for her son’s return. And when Lu Yu left back then, he swore an oath—if he ever returned, he would destroy everything the Lu family had!”

The surrounding sounds were silent, filled with anger and sympathy.

Lu Yu’s revenge was entirely justified.

In a world where one is not acknowledged by their family, enduring constant bullying and hostility is something no one can tolerate forever.

The Lu family forcibly separated a mother and her child, preventing them from ever meeting again.

Such a family has not a trace of sympathy in their hearts.

“You certainly know a lot. Some of these matters shouldn’t have been made public—how exactly did you come to know them?” A cold voice spoke from within the crowd.

On this person, ruthless killing intent locked onto the speaker!

Another star master!

Innumerable hearts trembled, and people stepped back in all directions.

Obviously, what the person said made some people very unhappy.

This person bore a slight resemblance to Lu Tianming and was young, around twenty years old.

Or perhaps, people in the post-apocalyptic world continue to grow and change. However, it’s become extremely difficult to determine their real ages.

For example, in his twenties, or perhaps already thirty.

The speaker was not afraid at all and smiled, saying, “Well then, if we just grab a Lu family member and force them to talk, won’t we find out everything we need to know?”

The onlookers around them nearly popped their eyes out.

What, what?

Would an ordinary person dare to seize a member of the Lu family and force them to talk?

Isn’t this person just asking for death!

“Who exactly are you?” the Star Lord immediately sensed something was wrong.

An ordinary person wouldn’t act like this at a time like this!

The speaker sneered coldly, his lips curling as he said, “You must have heard of the overlord Shi Hu! You’re Lu Xiao Dao, the eldest son of the Lu family, right?”

“Shi Hu of Nanjing City, you are the Star Lord!” Lu Xiao Dao’s mouth twitched as he looked at Shi Hu and said, “Have you come here looking for a fight?”

Shi Hu coldly snorted and said, “Wrong. I’m merely revealing the truth to everyone. As for taking action, that will be done personally by the master.”

Lu Xiaodao didn’t make a move, but his expression was truly grim, and he looked as if he really wanted to kill someone!

Because he could feel that in a nearby tavern, a pair of eyes was staring at him.

Xiao Xiao, being the only female host might not be as simple as it seems.

Lu Xiaodao retreated, and news of Lu Yu’s revenge had already spread.

Many people felt angry, and even more began to show their support for Lu Yu.

Such a grievance, anyone would seek to avenge.

However, there was not even a hint of a reply from the Lu family. The presence of nearly ten Demon Sovereigns and several Star Sovereigns stationed within the Lu family was enough to show that they had not been swayed by such information.

Times are different now; this is an era where interests come first.

No need to worry about past mistakes, as long as they are not repeated!

Everyone is waiting!

If Lu Yu really came, in what kind of posture would he make his entrance!

At this time, Lu Yu had left Xi’an for less than twenty-four hours!

The small town was extremely quiet. Even the birds and beasts on the surrounding mountains seemed to sense something amiss and had stopped their calls!

News from the outside cities continued to pour in relentlessly.

The next day after Xi’an was destroyed, the Lu family’s last stronghold in Huaxia was also destroyed.

Everyone’s heart was filled with anticipation.

They knew Lu Yu definitely couldn’t wait any longer; he would come!

But, how would he come!

Will the transmission be the same as going to Xi’an?

Many people looked up at the sky, expecting Lu Yu’s appearance.

However, Lu Yu did not show up.

“Why hasn’t he arrived yet? It seems much slower than expected!”

“Isn’t Lu Yu eager to seek revenge?”

People whispered.

“No, he’s coming!” Shi Hu suddenly fixed his gaze on the southeast of the city and declared, “The master is there!”

Everyone’s gaze shifted toward the method mentioned by Shi Hu, and they saw a mountain.

Boom!

Then, they saw the mountain move.

That mountain rises to a height of thousands of meters, standing out prominently among the surrounding peaks.

There isn’t such a high mountain nearby.

And now, the mountain had appeared out of nowhere, and it was moving.

“I’m back!” Lu Yu’s roar echoed through the sky above the small city and among the mountains.

People saw the mountain rising into the air, with a tiny human figure beneath it.

“Oh my God, Lu Yu brought a mountain with him!”

Lu Yu held up a towering mountain, where grass and trees still thrived, and the calls of beasts and birds echoed as before.

The mountain had already blocked the scorching sun in the sky, plunging this small town into darkness.

People in the small city had already come out, looking up at the sky.

The mountain stands hundreds of meters high—

Then, Lu Yu hurled the mountain down towards the small city!
