The elderly man in the wheelchair exuded an impressive presence.
He still exuded a mighty and awe-inspiring presence, his eyes sharp and full of vigor!
Especially his voice remains loud and clear, showing not the slightest sign of aging.
“If you take the money, you’d better pray that you can leave the city safely.”
Coming from the old man’s mouth, these words were so forceful that they made Lu Yu’s ears ring painfully.
Lu Yu replied coldly, “Old man, many people have told me that before, yet I’m still alive and well.”
The old man was slightly taken aback and coldly snorted, saying, “Do you think the money from my Li family is so easily taken away?”
Lu Yu, unyielding, retorted, “Do you really think I’m someone you can just kill at will?”
“Lu Yu?” the old man exclaimed in alarm.
“Oh.”
A group of men, women, and children all cried out in alarm.
“It’s him, that devil!”
“It was he who killed Li Han!”
“Damn it, this bastard not only killed Li Han, but now he’s come to rob the Li family. He’s a robber and a murderer.”
A group of men, women, the elderly, and children all began to accuse Lu Yu, pointing fingers at him. To them, Lu Yu was a devil, a murderer, and a robber.
“Shut your mouths! If anyone dares to utter another word, I’ll take their life.” Lu Yu’s eyes flashed with a murderous glint, and suddenly, countless blades of killing energy materialized behind him, each gleaming with cold light that split the air.
All the surrounding sounds vanished.
That gaze was too terrifying, as if he was truly about to kill someone.
“Lu Yu of Fanggang!” the old man said, his hands trembling slightly. “My Li family will never be done with you. You actually killed my grandson. I will definitely avenge this.”
Lu Yu said coldly, “Old man, don’t think you can act superior just because you’re older. I spared Li Lin because I plan to exchange him for some money. If your Li family has too much money, go ahead and send someone to cause me trouble. Remember this: if next time I find out it’s your Li family behind any attempt to target me, I won’t care about any rules in the city—I’ll turn this entire city upside down and wipe out your entire Li family!”
The old man radiated a powerful aura, but Lu Yu was even stronger. His oppressive presence towered over the elder like a tyrannosaur confronting a helpless lamb.
“Hiss!”
The old man inhaled sharply, his eyes fixed on Lu Yu, utterly convinced of the young man’s words.
His heart trembled, and his heartbeat quickened.
In an instant, he was actually overpowered by Lu Yu’s imposing presence.
That’s so scary.
The old man was secretly astonished, thinking: This aura seems as if he had walked out from a sea of blood. They say Lu Yu has killed countless people—could it actually be true? This气势, even when facing that individual, does not show the slightest inferiority. This is… this is the overbearing might inherent to a king!
Luo Haotian and others came out, smiling very satisfied.
Fang Hua said, “Not a single point off—the Star Soul Stones and Star Soul Pearls are exactly 36 billion each.”
Lu Yu raised his hand and hurled Li Lin toward the old man, snarling, “Remember this: don’t let anyone from your Li family come looking for trouble with me. Otherwise, you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
The old man trembled all over, eager to rise from the chair.
Dozens of men, women, and children kept their heads bowed, too afraid to look directly at Lu Yu.
The eyes they had were too terrible, like those of a wild beast.
“Huh!”
The old man raised his head to look at the sky. The night seemed to have acquired an unusual hue; the starlight appeared frozen, and even the clouds seemed motionless.
Li Lin also looked up at the sky and suddenly raised his head, seeing the sky as well.
His already pale face turned even paler as he said, “What, the domain has been opened.”
The old man slammed his hand on the armrest of his wheelchair, furious. “So you’re still not going to let us go, are you? The Li family has given so much, and this is all we get in return? But maybe it’s better this way—”
The old man laughed heartily and said, “Since we’ve already reached a breaking point, let’s make a scene then. Li Lin, the person before us dares to cause trouble at the Li residence—kill him first, and then seize the entire city.”
“Father, don’t worry. The Heaven’s Gate has opened; who here can stand against us.”
Lu Yu and the others also sensed something unusual, especially Li Lin, who had actually begun to exude a combative will and murderous aura.
At this moment, the sky over the city was changing, as if a vast celestial canopy was unfolding and covering the entire city.
“Haha.” A flush of color returned to Li Lin’s pale face as he clenched his fist with one hand.
“Lu Yu, do you know what karma is?” Li Lin swung his lone arm and said, “This is it—karma. I never thought even the Celestial Veil would open. So don’t bother leaving—just give me your life instead.”
Li Lin raised his arm, and at the broken part, countless granulation tissues grew, and white bones regenerated.
The lost arm had actually regrown.
Li Lin’s gaze changed.
Lu Yu sensed that Li Lin had changed; the aura around him had become mysterious and unpredictable, bringing immense pressure.
Lu Yu’s voice turned cold as he said, “Because the sky has changed you, do you really think you can challenge me?”
“Now you’re not qualified to challenge me,” Li Lin’s expression turned sinister as he sneered, “You’re nothing to me now. Lu Yu, beg for mercy, and I might let you live like a dog. Get down on your knees and plead with me.”
Lu Yu burst into laughter upon hearing this and said, “Haha, has a single Heaven Screen made you so arrogant?”
“Sky Curtain, do you know what this is?” With a single step, Li Lin vanished like a bolt of lightning.
He was originally an ordinary person, but his current movements have surpassed the realm of the ordinary.
The sky had actually changed him.
Before Lu Yu could react, Li Lin’s fist had already struck his chest.
“This starry sky is our guarantee, the key that allows us to rule over Huaxia. Before long, Huaxia will be ours. If you beg me now, I might still spare you.”
“Even if you’ve become an expert, what can you really do!” Lu Yu raised his arm, caught Li Lin’s fist, and with the other hand, heavily struck Li Lin’s chest.
Boom!
Bang!
That sound seemed like the rumbling of heavenly thunder, sweeping through the streets with impact, and crashing into building after building.
Hum.
The building trembled, just slightly, and all the shockwaves vanished.
Lu Yu felt an intense recoil force from Li Lin’s body surging back up his arm.
Bang!
Lu Yu stepped back several paces, while Li Lin remained motionless.
At this moment, in the sky, clusters of gigantic stars are growing increasingly brighter. These stars are radiating boundless light, which is pouring into the celestial dome.
The city of four and nine gates was as bright as day; every street, every dark corner had changed.
Thousands of beams of starlight converge into a radiant column, casting into the sky and seemingly injecting energy into the celestial dome.
Lu Yu frowned tightly. When he looked at Li Lin, Li Lin clenched his fists and said, “I’ve been waiting for this day for far too long. Do you think the money from the Li family was easy to obtain? Now, I’m not only taking back my money, but I’m also coming for your life.”
“You can become powerful in an instant, but you’re still just an ordinary person,” Lu Yu said contemptuously. “You have only strength. What else do you have?”
“What’s there?” Li Lin snorted coldly, “You’ll know what there is when you’re dead.”
Boom.
Li Lin moved again, even faster this time.
Bang!
Lu Yu was struck in the chest with a punch, the impact unleashing boundless force that sent him flying through the air.
This is the power of purity, an overwhelming force so mighty that Lu Yu could not withstand it.
Lu Yu’s back slammed into a building, and he felt as though this structure was as indestructible as the Star Spirit Mine.
“Power is all it takes.” Li Lin, appearing like a ghost beside Lu Yu, swung his fist and snarled, “My son’s remains are nowhere to be found. I’ll chop every piece of flesh off your body and feed it to the dogs.”
Bang!
Li Lin’s fist came down, and Lu Yu’s shadow was gone.
His fist slammed into the wall of the building, causing the entire structure to tremble, yet leaving no visible damage.
Li Lin didn’t even have time to turn around before a hand grabbed his neck and forcefully pushed him down to the ground.
“With increased speed and strength, you’re still just an ordinary person.” Lu Yu overpowered Li Lin and suddenly lifted his foot, delivering a heavy kick to Li Lin’s throat.
Bang!
Li Lin was kicked flying into the air; the kick to his throat left him struggling to breathe, as if his larynx was about to break.
However, Lu Yu’s foot was also kicked numb, and his foot bones felt as if they were broken.
Lu Yu raised his hand and struck the air with a palm strike.
Toxic waves surged from his palm.
In that brief moment of combat, he became certain that Li Lin had become somehow different because of the sky幕, and that his body must have connected with it.
Li Lin crashed into the wall and was hit by the toxic wave again.
Suddenly, the poisonous wave was pierced through. Li Lin passed through the toxic wave, his body completely unscathed despite being touched by the poison gas.
Boom!
Li Lin accelerated his speed, transforming into a bolt of lightning that vanished into the distance.
Lu Yu’s裂天翼 spread open like a sudden burst, transforming into a blue beam of light that vanished in an instant.
Li Lin missed his strike.
“You’re not good enough.” Lu Yu’s voice emerged from behind Li Lin. His arm transformed into a blazing flame as he struck forward with a punch like an inferno consuming the heavens. Countless fire dragons surged forth, sending Li Lin crashing into a sea of flames.
“Too weak, that’s not enough,” Li Lin laughed loudly, stepping out of the flames without even a single hair singed.
Lu Yu’s expression turned icy and solemn as he said, “Relying on something, to the point of disregarding fire and poison.”
“In this sky, I am invincible!” Li Lin laughed maniacally.
“But you’re still human.”
“I can tear you to pieces,” Li Lin laughed, advancing step by step toward Lu Yu. “Go ahead and show me what you’ve got. You can’t even touch a single hair on my body.”
“So?” Lu Yu’s hand moved swiftly, and a massive battle axe was firmly gripped in his hand.
“Xingqi—” Before Li Lin could finish speaking, the battle axe had already split his head open.
Bang!
Li Lin was knocked flying backward, blood seeping from the top of his head.
Lu Yu’s裂天翼 shuddered behind him as the war axe swiftly descended toward Li Lin’s head in an instant, and he roared while bringing it down with another powerful strike: “Invincible? How dare you utter ‘invincible’ before me?”
Snap!
This axe split open a crack on Li Lin’s crown, and the battle axe rebounded high into the air.
Lu Yu’s arms were shattered inch by inch as the impact reverberated through his body.
However, Lu Yu shook his arms, and his broken bones instantly regenerated. Then, he swung his axe down for the third strike.
The axe blade split the sky and plunged into Li Lin’s chest.
“All these years of training I’ve gone through can’t be stopped by just your Sky Barrier.” Lu Yu drew his war axe and kicked Li Lin’s corpse away.
Boom!
The corpse floating halfway in the air stirred, and the two halves of the skull reconnected.
Li Lin rolled on the ground and just stood up when the battle axe was already heading toward Tian Ling’s head again.
Bang!
The axe blade split the sky, cleaving Li Lin’s celestial crown and causing blood to drip from his crown.
Li Lin’s face turned pale as he reached up to touch his forehead, his heart trembling with shock.
Lu Yu swung his battle-axe and pointed it at the group of dozens of people standing in front of the villas, saying, “Have you all forgotten what I just said? Dare to lay a hand on me again, and I’ll leave not a single soul from your Li family alive. Do you really think my words are just passing winds, that I’m merely joking around?”
Lu Yu stood like a demon god, holding a battle axe and towering over the land.
The elderly man and dozens of others were extremely terrified.
The first time, they felt fear.
The expert forged under the heavens was actually defeated by a single weapon in Lu Yu’s hands.
“Lu Yu!”
In the sky, a dark shadow fell heavily to the ground, crashing toward Lu Yu like a cannonball.
Boom!
The war axe swung forth, its beam of axe-light stretching ten thousand zhang, cleaving through the dark shadow and sending it flying away.
Lu Yu planted his battle axe into the ground and laughed loudly, saying, “Yan Xisheng, you’ve come too. How many experts can the Tianmu create? Why don’t you call them all here together? Let me see what qualifications you commoners-turned-experts have to challenge me.”
