The words of the demon ape startled many demons and humans alike.
This name is not ordinary at all.
When they first heard the name, the热血沸腾 to open the realm of demon control felt like it had been instantly doused with cold water.
A group of people felt a chill rushing from their feet straight up to the top of their heads.
A Demon Sovereign stepped forward, grabbed the魔人猿 by the neck, and snarled, “What did you say? You claim the Yuan Yu is protecting this place—how do you know its name? Are you trying to deceive us?”
“Explain clearly, what exactly is going on? If you dare to deceive us by even a single word, not a single person in this city will be left alive.”
They were very angry and also afraid.
If Lu Yu has truly come here and made deals with these people, then from this day forward, no one in this city will dare to take any action against him.
But they didn’t believe it.
They know exactly what kind of person Lu Yu is.
Unless the demons here had helped Lu Yu, he would never have said such words.
The demon ape was frightened, yet he felt both startled and delighted.
He wasn’t stupid; he could sense the fear and dread these people had toward Lu Yu.
That man didn’t deceive them.
The man spoke the truth; in the eyes of these mighty Zun, he was indeed terrifying.
They are threatening themselves, and the fear in their tone has been completely exposed.
The demon ape gained more confidence and said, “That person is called Lu Yu, and he looks roughly…”
The demon ape gave a rough description of Lu Yu’s demeanor and appearance.
The demons and humans who arrived had somewhat distorted faces.
“Has he really come?”
“No, absolutely impossible. These demons have no value at all. So I think they’ve simply heard the name Lu Yu before and are trying to scare us with it.”
After a brief moment of discussion among the crowd, someone suddenly grabbed the monstrous ape’s neck, snarling, “You better be telling the truth, or I’ll rip your head off right now. You said Lu Yu is protecting you, so where is he?”
“He said that if you don’t believe him, you may enter. The door on the Blood Sacrifice Platform is open; you may go inside. However, once you enter, it’s best not to come out, otherwise he won’t spare anyone.”
The demon ape pointed in the direction of the Blood Sacrifice Platform.
“What, the door is already open!”
“He opened the Demon King’s Domain without using any props?”
Everyone abandoned the demon ape, not believing that anyone could accomplish it.
Along the way, no demonic clans blocked their path.
By the time they arrived at the altar in the city center, they saw the blood-red gate floating motionless in the air.
A chill gripped everyone’s heart.
“Did Lu Yu really come?”
“This… this can’t be such bad luck, right!”
Someone gasped sharply.
Someone swallowed hard and said, “The door is open. Aren’t we going in?”
“Go in? Are we really bold enough to do this?” someone asked with a bitter smile. “If it’s really Lu Yu in there, do you think we could just walk in and still walk out alive?”
A demon’s eyes rolled as he suggested, “How about this? The Demon Domain closing also has a time limit. As soon as this domain closes, if the one who comes out isn’t Lu Yu, won’t everything become clear?”
“Yeah.” Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded in agreement, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
One person rubbed his hands together and said, “If this person’s abilities are ordinary, perhaps we can temporarily take all of this person’s belongings and help keep them safe for now.”
“Haha.”
Everyone laughed.
If it wasn’t Lu Yu who came out, then the belongings of that person would belong to them as well.
Not long after, the group that had departed returned, bringing with them five Supreme Demon Sovereigns.
Even if they are pressed back, they are still low-class demons like the魔人猿. Even if they become至尊, there are not many people who would care about their lives or deaths.
…
The waiting time was not long.
The crimson light gate suddenly blazed with intense light, and in the next moment, a human figure appeared alongside five demons.
The group waiting at the Blood Gate suddenly stood up, many of them already placing their hands on their weapons.
A faint trace of murderous intent had just emerged when the figure that had just appeared seemed to materialize like a violent gust of wind, landing a punch that shattered through the opponent’s chest.
The others immediately felt a chill down their backs as the temperature around them dropped rapidly.
“Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu!” A human’s hand, which had been resting on his weapon, immediately went limp, and he stammered with trembling body: “It’s really you!”
Not only did he see it, but all the Sovereigns saw it as well.
The person standing before them was none other than Lu Yu; there was no doubt about it.
Their scalps tingled, and waves of coldness shot up to their foreheads repeatedly. Their faces turned pale, drained of all color, and some people began trembling in their legs.
As Lu Yu stepped forward, the five Zunzhi who accompanied him immediately understood.
The human in front of them indeed possesses real strength. Just look at the expressions on these humans’ faces—they clearly show fear towards Lu Yu. This human must be extremely ruthless to make these Zhi Zuns so terrified.
They made the right choice, the right choice!
From now on, they no longer need to be afraid.
Lu Yu kicked the corpse in front of him away and said coldly, “If it weren’t for me, were you planning to kill someone else and then seize the treasure?”
A devil snickered, “No, no, we dare not. We just thought these devils might be deceiving us, so we stayed here to see whether they had the guts to do it.”
“See you again. You may leave now,” Lu Yu glanced at the group and said, “I don’t care about other cities, but this city is mine now. You can help me spread the word. Starting today, whoever dares to slaughter even one more demon race member in this city, I will kill him personally!”
As Lu Yu spoke, his eyes turned blood red, scanning across the people present.
Nearly two hundred people bowed their heads, their hearts trembling as they realized that Lu Yu was not joking.
“Understood, understood.”
Everyone nodded in agreement, too afraid to shake their heads.
“Understood? Now get out!” Lu Yu barked fiercely, leaving no one daring to linger for even half a second longer.
They didn’t even take the sacrificial offerings they had bound; one by one, they flew away, unwilling to stay in this city for even half a second longer.
Lu Yu watched as these people left. He turned his head toward the demon ape and others, saying, “I think news of this place will spread soon. Before I die, you should still be safe. But don’t expect me to be a god who never dies. During the time I’m still alive, try your best to become stronger; you still have a chance to survive.”
A demon ape looked at Lu Yu, took a few steps forward with immense excitement, and said, “Thank you, thank you so much! You’ve helped us, and we truly have nothing to offer in return. If there ever comes a day when you need us to give everything, even our lives, we would willingly do so.”
The giant python’s voice was so excited that it became somewhat distorted: “What you have done today, we will never forget.”
“You helped me, so naturally I will help you too,” Lu Yu said casually, waving his hand. “Alright, no need for you to be so polite. If anyone dares to make a move here, just send someone to Fanggang City to find me.”
Lu Yu didn’t want to stay any longer. He was now only a few bones away from completing the entire King Zun bone, and he couldn’t help but feel excited about it.
This collection was too smooth, even unusually so, leaving him feeling incredulous.
When Lu Yu returned to Fanggang, he finally realized how much upheaval his battle in the Starry Sky battlefield had caused in the real world.
The mines in the center of Fanggang City began to tremble, as if a ferocious beast slumbering beneath was about to awaken.
Moreover, it’s not just Fanggang; every city around the world is like this.
Although the anomaly subsided shortly thereafter.
However, many people still felt a lingering sense of fear.
During this period, cities that had become beast territories due to abandoned mines were the most active. In fact, some people discovered that more than three thousand beasts of considerable strength had appeared in those underground caverns.
All major organizations are talking about this unusual change, and they all sense the danger lurking around them.
Become stronger, I must become stronger!
Lu Yu is the talk of the town, the subject of conversation everywhere.
The sudden anomaly made many people feel as if they had returned to that night of destruction.
Everyone’s expression turned solemn.
Many people who were originally lazy and indifferent also had their expressions become serious.
As soon as Lu Yu returned to Fanggang City, the members of the Celestial organization received the news.
The people who arrived were an elderly man and Yang Bai. When the two saw Lu Yu, the elderly man spoke directly, saying, “Mr. Lu, you should have already seen the discussions circulating outside, right?”
The old man’s voice was deep and heavy, carrying a weight that felt almost oppressive.
“What do you know?” Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on the old man and Bai Yang, with a murderous intent凝聚in his eyes.
The old man seemed to have anticipated Lu Yu’s reaction long ago. He smiled faintly and said, “We saw everything you did on the Starry Battlefield!”
“You’ve all seen my abilities! And every single step of the process, you’ve witnessed it too,” Lu Yu’s voice became even colder.
Bai Yang quickly said, “Don’t worry, we won’t let a single word slip out. We spied on your abilities—it was indeed excessive. However, you must not know what has happened in this world during this process!”
“Only one step away from destruction, right?” said Lu Yu.
“What, you know?” the old man exclaimed in great surprise: “How come you know? No, that’s not right. You didn’t originally know, and you couldn’t possibly have seen everything happening outside.”
“I don’t know much, but I still know something. It seems you two know the situation quite well; why don’t you tell me about it?” said Lu Yu.
Thinking about the unusual changes discussed by the outside world, Lu Yu also felt some fear in retrospect.
He was really not ready.
His strength was insufficient, and he understood this truth better than anyone else.
If destruction were to降临 now, he couldn’t stop it.
So he wanted to know what he had missed.
The elder told Lu Yu everything he had seen in front of the crystal wall without holding anything back. He said, “Mr. Lu, no matter what the Starry Battlefield has given you, I hope you will be cautious the next time you enter.”
Lu Yu nodded solemnly.
Life beneath the mines is the enemy where destruction begins, even the humanoid warriors are no exception.
Then how many more, or how many more hidden enemies are waiting for him?
As Lu Yu was deep in thought, Yang Bai said, “Mr. Lu, I think you also understand how close and dangerous the destruction is this time! If destruction truly arrives at this moment, none of us will have a chance to survive. In this world, strength is the most important thing. Unless you, Mr. Lu, are willing, we are ready to purchase a large number of your star soldiers. As long as the price is reasonable, we will buy as many as you can provide.”
After experiencing the recent terror and still feeling the lingering fear, Yang and others now understand how powerless they would be against destruction if they lack sufficient strength.
Therefore, this time they are determined to go to any lengths to collect powerful artifacts.
