Chapter 433: I Challenge You to a Duel!

The humanoid beings of the Crimson Land are searching for every human.

At the same time, Lu Yu was also collecting blood left behind by every form of life.

“The Red Land is not simple,” someone realized. This land concealed great secrets.

“Only one more left!” Lu Yu looked at the blood in the bottle; the blood sigil was missing just one final corner to become complete, and the mysterious fluctuations emanating from the blood were becoming even clearer.

“Fire dragon, we’ve never seen anything like this before!”

Everyone could only shake their heads.

“According to the records, it must be somewhere on this land. As long as we don’t leave, we will surely encounter it,” Lu Yu said, putting away the small bottle and continuing the search with more than twenty people.

Someone asked, “Mr. Lu, aren’t you going to save people? The Snake Demon said he will devour one person per day; he’s clearly insulting all of humanity.”

Lu Yu froze, turned his gaze toward the speaker, and coldly said, “The Snake Demon possesses the power of a thousand lords, and I don’t even know what kind of mutation he has undergone. Facing an unknown enemy, if I don’t prepare carefully, are you suggesting I go there to die?”

The man lowered his head without saying a word, feeling that his previous thoughts had been too simplistic.

Lu Yu is also a human being and cannot possibly be invincible.

Even facing an enemy with the power of a thousand, Lu Yu would still feel immense pressure!

It was astonishing how calmly he could face the impending major battle.

If it were someone else, they would probably have panicked and fled by now.

After all, the gap in strength between the two sides is six to seven times, not just a slight difference!

More and more humanoid beings entered the crimson land. They seemed to have split into several groups and began hunting and searching for something across this land.

The news of the appearance of the divine being also shocked the humanoid lives!

For the sake of a human, a deity actually appeared.

This human is actually this powerful, even the gods have to intervene to stop them!

The people of the Crimson Land were nearly overcome with despair.

There are enemies everywhere here; they have already run out of options and have no way to escape.

Before the volcano, a young girl and three warriors were surrounded and attacked by dozens of serpent men.

The young girl held a long sword in her hand, and flames of radiant light surrounded her body.

Her sword stirred up the lava from the ground, sending it surging toward the serpent people and tearing a gap through their encirclement.

“Let’s go!”

The young girl gave the order, and the three warriors, along with her, charged out of the encirclement to escape.

A snake person shouted loudly, “Drop your sword, and I’ll spare your life!”

The girl spun around, swinging her long sword once more, as if merging with the crimson land itself. Countless streams of molten lava from the cracks in the earth were lifted into the air, forming a fiery dragon that surged toward dozens of snake-men.

“Roar!”

Beneath the earth, a fiery wolf leaped out of the lava and lunged toward the young girl.

The girl swung her sword in one swift motion, striking down onto the fire wolf’s head with a crisp, explosive sound.

The young girl opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell backward.

“Au!” howled the fire wolf as it lunged toward the young girl.

A warrior swung his sword at a fire wolf from the side.

The fire wolf’s body moved slightly in the air and then vanished from everyone’s sight.

As everyone blinked their eyes, the warrior’s head was crushed by the fire wolf’s bite.

The fire wolf crushed the warrior’s head in its mouth and swallowed it, then lunged at the girl again.

“Let’s go!”

Another soldier picked up the young girl, and under the protection of another soldier, fled in a different direction.

“Drop the sword, or I’ll feed you to the serpent demon!” A serpent man lunged toward the three like an arrow.

A warrior turned around, and in the blink of an eye, the snake-man twisted off his limbs and threw him backward, saying, “Grab him; the Snake Demon Lord will like it.”

Boom!

The fire wolf also pounced forward, colliding head-on with the snake man.

The shockwaves from the clash of the two supreme beings sent the young girl and the last warrior flying backward.

“Let’s go!”

The soldier gritted his teeth and helped the girl to her feet.

“This place, this place is too terrifying,” the pale-faced girl said, “That fire wolf has at least the strength of two hundred, and that snake person is also around two hundred. How can humans possibly stand a chance against them?”

“This is not a place we should have come to!” The last soldier also said in a trembling voice: “Except for someone like Lu Yu or Qin Hai, no one else can make it here.”

“Lu Yu!” The girl’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she said, “I heard he’s here too!”

“This Red Land is so vast, we probably won’t be lucky enough to meet them,” said the warrior as he ran, pulling the young girl along. “Now isn’t the time to think about it; we’re fortunate if we can escape with our lives.”

The two of them had fled no more than ten miles when the snake people from behind started chasing after them.

The snake-man in front sneered, “Human, you have no chance now. Even if you beg for mercy on your knees, I won’t let you escape with your life!”

“Escape!”

The warrior suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and at the same time, a red light flickered across his body.

The warrior’s speed increased several times, pulling the young girl and darting forward like an arrow.

The snake man had an animal’s sense of smell; even though he had lost sight of the two figures ahead, he could still follow their trail by scent.

Within minutes, they had caught up again behind the warrior and the girl.

The warrior couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood, then grabbed the young girl and fled once more.

After repeating this several times, the soldier’s face had turned deathly pale, reaching the limit of his endurance!

He staggered as he ran with the young girl, barely managing to spit out another mouthful of blood before he could run no longer.

“Lingling, you run first. Just try your best. If you can escape, then escape.” A soldier patted the young girl’s back and, clenching his teeth, sent her flying dozens of zhang away.

“Whoever came in together, leave together!”

The young girl suddenly turned around, her long sword cleaving through the air and unleashing waves of flame. One after another, fiery dragons surged toward the serpent people behind her.

The snake people shook off the flames and suddenly came to a stop.

The girl nervously gripped her sword, looking at the snake people, and said with delight, “Brother Yang, they’re scared.”

The soldier staggered, looked past the girl, and stammered, “L-Lu Yu!”

The snake people saw it too.

Behind the young girl, more than twenty people were approaching.

“Lu Yu, the gods have forbidden us from taking action against you. Consider yourself lucky!” The serpent man glared at Lu Yu and said, “You’d better leave. This matter is none of your concern!”

Lu Yu was also leading people to search nearby.

So it was lucky for the girl that the soldier ran in that direction.

“I have no interest in saying much,” Lu Yu said coldly. “You know that you’ve scared away a fire dragon I worked hard to find. You wouldn’t be able to compensate me even with your life!”

“Human, your arrogance will bring you no good!” a serpent person rumbled. “If it weren’t for the will of the gods, I would kill you right now.”

“What’s the point of wasting time,” Lu Yu said coldly. “Since you’re here, you’re not leaving!”

“Haha, the will of the gods prevents you from laying a hand on us. Dare you attack?” All the serpent people burst into laughter.

“You’ll die just the same without me lifting a finger!”

As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, more than twenty people around him rushed forward together toward the snake-man.

More than twenty people each held a Supreme Star Weapon in their hands. The weapons shimmered with flowing light, radiating a chilling, cold gleam!

“With just these people, they actually think they can kill us? They’re way too weak!”

With a wave of his hand, the snake man signaled, and dozens of snake men sprang into action simultaneously.

Boom!

These snake people were also wielding star-forged weapons and launching attacks against the humans.

Clang!

The star soldiers collided, and the star weapons in the snake people’s hands emitted sparks of starlight. All of them were severed by the swords wielded by more than twenty individuals.

The cold light of the sword came to a halt, having directly cleaved into the bodies of these serpent men.

Just a single strike, and over a dozen snake-men were split in half!

In a single encounter, nearly half of the snake people were killed, leaving them outnumbered by humans.

“This… how could this be possible!” The remaining snake people were all greatly shocked, never expecting such an outcome.

How is it possible that the star soldiers in the hands of these humans can split open other star soldiers of the same kind?

Lu Yu scoffed coldly, crossing his arms as he watched the battlefield.

His inability to act personally does not mean he cannot prompt others to act on his behalf.

Lu Yu distributed a Blade of Slaughter to each person. The attack power enhancement of the Ten Sovereigns might not currently be the highest among all the Star Warriors of the Supreme Realm.

However, the skill of the Blade of Slaughter is the most overbearing.

Blade of Slaughter:

Rank: Supreme.

Attribute: Ten Honors of Offensive Power!

Effect: The Blade of Slaughter is a supreme star-forged weapon, formed from concentrated intent to kill, and tempered simultaneously with star-summoning and weapon-refining techniques. It possesses an incomparably sharp edge capable of severing through any defense and ability—utterly unstoppable!

That effect can cut through any defense.

At the sight of him, the twenty-odd humans were all overjoyed.

This seemingly ordinary star soldier is too sharp; it can even cut through Supreme Star Soldiers of the same level.

Even with great power, if one cannot withstand the sharpness of the Blade of Slaughter, a Nagari becomes as fragile as a tiger deprived of its claws.

Within less than ten minutes, more than thirty snake men were killed, leaving only one remaining.

More than twenty people clutched their bloodthirsty blades, unable to put them down.

This is truly a divine weapon!

It can split through not only star soldiers, but even the skills of the serpent people.

Some snake people spewed out toxic mist, but the well-prepared group easily dispersed it.

“Cut off his two arms and let him return to tell the snake demon. If he wants to challenge me, he should come in person. Don’t think eating a few people will anger me. I’ve killed thousands, and I won’t be moved by a few deaths! If he has the ability, even if he kills someone, it has nothing to do with me.”

More than twenty people didn’t flinch, slicing off the last snake-man’s arms at the shoulders, then throwing him far away.

The young girl and the warrior were already stunned.

Lu Yu hasn’t even taken action yet, and the people around him are already this ruthless.

The star soldiers they wield are so terrifying. Are those still star soldiers?

As Lu Yu went to retrieve the corpse and backpack of the snake man, the young girl finally reacted. Her face flushed red, and with a mix of excitement, she stepped forward to Lu Yu and said, “Thank you for saving me!”

Since she could remember, the girl had often heard the name Lu Yu.

Battling the Demon King, fighting the Hydra, subduing Japan, and conquering India—each act is so exhilarating and blood-pounding.

Many times, the young girl wanted to see Lu Yu’s appearance with her own eyes.

Now she has finally gotten her wish.

His handsome and rugged appearance, along with that domineering and coldly arrogant expression, made her heart race!

“Saving you was just an accident!” Lu Yu said, as he put away the serpentman’s corpse and checked his backpack. “If you hadn’t come this way, I’d actually be grateful. You scared off a fire dragon, and now I’ll have to spend many more days searching for it!”

“You—” the young girl was taken aback, then stamped her foot in anger and said, “I thanked you, and if you don’t want to accept it, that’s fine, but how dare you say I delayed you? I want to challenge you to a duel and demand an apology from you!”

“Uh!”

The soldier, who had just regained a bit of spirit over there, almost lost his breath again.

Lingling, you can’t just do it like this.

Even if the weapon in your hand is extraordinary, you are still no match for Lu Yu.

“Heh, a duel?” Lu Yu looked at the girl with interest and said, “Do you know what happens to those who duel with me in the end?”

The girl has a sweet appearance, a tall figure, and a head of glossy, radiant hair.

It can be said that she is a rare beauty.

Women like her rarely appear in such dangerous places, let alone dare to challenge him.

Lu Yu’s gaze swept over the young girl and finally settled on the sword she carried.
