Lei Xiaohu wanted to fight for more opportunities to save his own life.
Lu Yu’s attitude was extremely firm; his icy voice pierced through Lei Xiaohu’s heart like a sword.
Lei Xiaohu’s heart skipped a beat. Fixed by this gaze, he believed what Lu Yu said was true.
He knew there were not many chances left.
“Lu Yu, even if I tell you, do you dare to go there?” Lei Xiaohu sneered. “With your abilities, you can’t even get close. Your strength is insignificant there!”
Lu Yu said coldly, “That’s my business. You just need to tell me where it is.”
Lei Xiaohu gritted his teeth and said, “Bring me some paper and a pen—I’ll draw it for you. If you die, I’ll be even happier.”
As Lu Yu nodded slightly, someone immediately handed a piece of paper and a pen to Lei Xiaohu.
Then, many warriors tactfully withdrew.
Lei Xiaohu took the paper and pen, then roughly sketched a simple map on the paper. He tossed it to Lu Yu and said, “Go ahead, go ahead! I really want to see how you’re going to die!”
Lu Yu put away the map after glancing at it, then said, tucking it into his robe: “Stay here, none of you can leave. I’ll send people to search right away. If the map you gave me turns out to be fake, I’ll kill your father first. If you dare to give me another false one, I’ll make you wish you were dead. You should know that I’m a Guardian too. I have plenty of chances to kill you and then bring you back to life again.”
“Alright, give me another piece of paper,” Lei Xiaohu gritted his teeth and said, “Mr. Lu, you’re quite cautious. It’s not easy to deceive you.”
Lu Yu carefully looked at the paper he received this time. This one was more detailed than the previous one, with a clearer route as well.
Lu Yu tore off the first talisman and said, “Alright, you can leave now.”
Lu Yu personally pushed the door open and said, “Get out of Fanggang and never let me see you again.”
“Let’s go.” Looking at Lu Yu, Thunder Tiger picked up his son and walked out.
Lei Xiaohu cast a venomous glare at Lu Yu, then ran out after his father.
The wide streets made their feelings even more complicated.
All of this should have belonged to them.
However, Lu Yu ruined their dreams.
“Chief, are we just going to let them leave like this?” One person, watching the Lei father and son depart, tightened his grip on his weapon and said不甘心地: “They’ll definitely cause you trouble again in the future.”
Lu Yu said coldly, “Do you really think that just because you’re doing business with me, I’ll let you off the hook? Those who deserve to die must die! No matter what I may lose, this is the price they must pay!”
Dozens of soldiers were sweating all over, with a chill creeping from the top of their heads down to the soles of their feet.
This was the first time Lu Yu had ever broken his promise and decided to kill. The Lei father and son had truly provoked someone they shouldn’t have.
…
Fanggang—
After the crisis was resolved, this place became prosperous again.
As soon as the Lei father and son appeared on the street, the surroundings fell silent.
Everyone now knows this father and son.
Lei Xiaohu now looked extremely disheveled, and even the once mighty Lei Laohu appeared listless and downcast.
The father and son hurried down the street, trembling all over as people pointed at them and whispered, doing their utmost to suppress their anger.
They are no longer qualified to erupt, nor do they have the right to be arrogant now.
Falling from heaven to hell, the hatred of the two people toward Lu Yu was indescribable.
They only hoped to leave this city as soon as possible and then find a way to regain their strength and make a comeback.
“I must have my revenge!” Lei Xiaohu ground his teeth, his nails digging deeply into his flesh.
Suddenly, the murmurs around came to a halt, and all sounds vanished in an instant.
The Lei family looked up and saw the person standing at the front of the street.
“Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, why are you here!” Thunder Tiger’s heart trembled; his last shred of hope for survival vanished. He immediately suspected something and fell into despair.
Lei Xiaohu pointed a trembling finger at Lu Yu and shouted, “Mr. Lu, you promised to let us go. Are you going back on your word? You agreed to spare us back in New Shanghai, and I’ve already given you my secret. Why do you still want to kill me? Are you really going to make a move in front of all these people?”
Lei Xiaohu’s voice grew louder and louder, trying to draw everyone’s attention.
The surroundings were silent, with countless eyes fixed on Lu Yu.
Lu Yu’s reputation lies not only in his transactions, but more importantly, in his unwavering commitment to his word!
This is the general opinion of Lu Yu, and also the reason why all organizations are willing to do business with him.
Would Lu Yu destroy the reputation he has built over many years today?
Someone whispered softly, “Is it worth doing all this for a woman?”
“Value.” A woman next to the man shot the speaker a fierce glare and said, “If you dare say that again, don’t even think about touching me.”
The person obediently shut up.
Even if men may not accept it, when it comes to women, they hope their men would do it.
The Thunder Tiger trembled and said, “Lu Yu, you’ve already taken everything from us. Will you not even spare us now?”
“Some—you shouldn’t touch,” Lu Yu took a step forward.
He took a single step to stand before Thunder Tiger, placed his hand on Thunder Tiger’s crown, and channeled his power through his palm into Thunder Tiger’s head.
Bang!
Lei Laohu’s body swelled up, his blood vessels burst, and then his flesh and bones exploded into countless pieces, splattering everywhere.
There was a deathly silence all around, and the air became stifling.
“Lu Yu, you despicable man!” roared Lei Xiaohu. Witnessing his father’s tragic death, he realized there was no hope left for him.
Bang! Lu Yu punched and shattered Lei Xiaohu’s other arm.
“Ahh!” Lei Xiaohu’s arm bone shattered, splattering in all directions. His eye corner burst open, as if he were about to devour Lu Yu with ferocious intensity.
Lei Xiaohu, having lost both arms, stumbled backward, his face completely drained of color.
“Lu, Lu Yu, if you kill me, you will lose all your credibility.”
“If I don’t kill you, how can I face my own family?” Lu Yu said coldly. Immediately afterward, he flicked his finger, sending a blade of slaughter flying from between his fingers, which sliced off Lei Xiaohu’s right leg at the root. He continued, “Honor? Compared to honor, I value my family’s lives and their safety more!”
Lei Xiaohu lost all hope and stammered, “Ah. L-Lu Yu, don’t kill me. I know all the details about that place—I can tell you everything.”
He was really scared.
Lu Yu is actually willing to give up everything for his family; a person like that is the most terrifying.
Lu Yu has gone mad; a person like him no longer cares about anything.
“No need for that.” With a wave of his hand, Lu Yu’s spatial blade, which had not been retracted, flashed through the air and severed Lei Xiaohu’s other leg.
Lei Xiaohu’s scream turned into a mournful wail as his body writhed like a worm, crawling towards the distance.
Lu Yu caught up in a few steps and pressed his foot on Lei Xiaohu’s head, saying, “There are some things you shouldn’t touch!”
Bang!
Lei Xiaohu’s head was shattered, and blood splattered all over the ground.
The streets were littered with severed limbs and broken arms, and the smell of blood spread everywhere.
Lu Yu extended his hand, and a ball of flame fell to the ground, reducing the bodies of the Lei father and son to ashes.
The pedestrians on the street did not move; they stood quietly in place, watching as Lu Yu killed two men, right in the heart of this city where no conflict was allowed.
Someone paled and said, “He’s not only ruined his own reputation, but also broken the rules of this city. Lu Yu has gone mad, completely mad.”
A man said seriously, “No. Lu Yu isn’t crazy. If he had wanted to, he could easily have chosen an isolated location or secretly sent someone to kill these two people. However, he didn’t do that. Instead, he wants to send us a message: anyone who dares to harm his family will die. He would rather forsake his reputation and promises than let those who endanger his loved ones escape justice.”
A woman whose eyes sparkled with excitement said, “I think this is what a real man is like—one who would risk anything for his family.”
“This does not affect his reputation, nor the rules of this city.”
They watched Lu Yu’s back disappear into the distance, and then the flow of people resumed again.
The ashes on the ground had been trampled by countless people, as if these two individuals had never existed at all.
This matter may not seem very significant.
In this world, many people pass away every day.
Two people who have lost their power, and even their status, will no longer attract any attention.
However, this matter was not yet over.
For the major powers, Lu Yu’s actions served as a warning to them.
He, Lu Yu, has a reversed scale, which no one is allowed to touch.
Once he sets his sights on someone, he will stop at nothing and will surely take that person’s life, no matter when.
“Unless Lu Yu is eliminated first, do not target the people around him,” ordered the major organizations.
…
Demon Hunting Plains——
Lu Yu spent three days finding the place marked by Lei Xiaohu.
It was a palace complex nestled among the mountains. Surrounded by ranges upon ranges of mountains, it was truly difficult to spot this place without a careful search.
This palace was actually newly built, and some parts of it were still under construction by magic apes.
Lu Yu looked from afar and had not yet approached, but already felt the faint touch of powerful energy currents.
At that very moment, the people within the palace also sensed Lu Yu’s presence.
Wave after wave of terrifying killing intent surged toward Lu Yu.
The killing intent surged like massive dragons, their presence so tangible they pierced through the void itself.
Lu Yu reacted extremely quickly.
In an instant, he teleported sideways for dozens of miles, completely concealing all his aura.
Boom!
The killing intent struck the mountain, causing a peak thousands of meters high to collapse. Rocks exploded into the air like a volcanic eruption.
Within the palace, more than a dozen figures appeared.
Each of these figures possessed the strength of fifty thousand realms, and they rushed forward, their bodies enveloped in black mist, toward the collapsed mountain.
“It’s gone.”
“Not bad. Seems like you came well-prepared.”
“Can you determine who it is?”
“It’s hard to say for sure, but judging from that trace of killing intent that leaked out, this person is definitely not ordinary.”
More than ten figures retreated backward, stepping into the palace.
“Really knows how to enjoy life, building a palace here for yourself, and then developing your power in preparation for the purge, right?”
Lu Yu did not approach, quickly stepping back instead.
These dozen or so figures were different from ordinary Zun.
Lu Yu felt an endless vitality from these people; it was the aura of regenerative abilities.
More than ten people possess the power of regeneration, and they also have the strength of fifty thousand zuns. This battle will be difficult to win.
Moreover, Lu Yu could sense dozens of other presences hiding within the palace, each like a beast lying in wait.
Lu Yu dared not advance recklessly.
After he returned to Fanggang, he made several major deals with the Celestial Order and the British military.
To achieve this, Lu Yu deployed the finest batch of weapons from the Treasure Vault Pearl.
It was not only because of the guardian in the Monster Plains, but also because of the guardian in Japan.
The guardian’s protection period is about to expire.
By then, he didn’t know how Japan’s guardians would make their move.
Therefore, he still has about three years to make thorough preparations.
Having prepared everything, Lu Yu re-entered the starry sky.
The training of troops has already involved materials of the fourth level, and he has begun to glimpse the threshold of a half-star artifact.
One must first forge a half-star artifact before creating a star-forging vessel.
Lu Yu is not only refining soldiers, but has begun to reforge the ten thousand blades of slaughter. Delicate rivers of stars swirl around each blade, and they have already begun to take on the form of semi-star artifacts.
The development outside continued.
However, the number of evolution liquid drops accumulated by Fangang has already reached twenty thousand.
No one knows the exact number.
If it gets out, I wonder if someone might take the risk again.
The quality of the supreme star weapons within the Treasure Vault’s Pearl continues to rise, and those inside clearly see that Lu Yu’s alchemists are becoming increasingly powerful.
They hadn’t seen Lu Yu in a long time, but every time they saw him, they felt that he had become stronger and more mysterious.
Around Lu Yu, space would intermittently crack open or twist.
One year ——
When Lu Yu stepped out of the harbor again, the convergence of the Second Domain was drawing near.
“I’ll be away for a while. If anything happens, activate the defense of the first domain. I’ve left the treasure bead at the hotel; if you run into trouble, try to reach them. If anything happens to me, take over everything here, but make sure to protect my mother and Huo Wu.”
