Lu Yu’s strike wasn’t particularly swift, but it was ferociously powerful.
“Aaargh!”
The Blood Demon Bear’s face contorted, sinking inward by an inch. The two knee prints merged together, as if Lu Yu had completely caved in its face.
“Five thousand health points!” roared the Blood Demon Bear, releasing a terrifying howl filled with shock.
How could its thirty thousand health points fail to withstand just a few hits?
Lu Yu’s knee was also shattered. As he landed, he immediately dropped to one knee on the ground.
The Blood Demon Bear clapped its two palms together, unleashing terrifying force that crushed Lu Yu’s internal organs.
His body flattened like a compressed humanoid figure, ribs protruding outside his body. The horrifying wound looked like a near-death cripple at death’s edge.
It was a mutual destruction.
“Opportunity!”
From the rear, Wu Zizhong and his subordinates, who had remained inactive, suddenly had their eyes gleaming with sharp light. Several brave warriors gripped their weapons and charged toward Lu Yu.
At this moment, all it would take was to sever Lu Yu’s head to end everything.
They didn’t have the soldiers’ lightning-fast reflexes.
But they had a ruthless determination and decisiveness. As Lu Yu fell from the bear’s palm, they had already started moving.
At the very moment Lu Yu hit the ground, their blades were already descending onto his head.
“Kill him!”
Zhao Ye gritted his teeth furiously, suddenly rejuvenated and standing up.
“Kill him!”
Wu Zizhong and his men shouted together.
If they couldn’t kill Lu Yu at such an opportunity, then they truly had no chance at all.
The glow of star weapons flickered, capturing countless hearts.
Three star weapons were swung almost simultaneously—
“Clang!”
A loud metallic clang erupted as Lu Yu’s left arm shot up.
All three star weapons struck Lu Yu’s forearm, sounding as if they had hit steel.
“This is impossible!” Wu Zizhong cried out in shock, stunned.
“What kind of regeneration speed is this!”
“Does he even have a weapon on his left arm?”
“Heavens, such rapid regeneration speed—what kind of ability does he possess!”
It wasn’t just Wu Zizhong’s men who were shouting in shock; even the Fangang people were astounded.
With such strength and recovery speed, where would he not dare to go?
With such a person wanting to kill someone, who dares claim they can resist!
Blocking all the star weapons, Lu Yu slapped the ground and suddenly exploded upward.
“No, don’t kill me!” The three men, sensing Lu Yu’s murderous intent and covered in blood, were like seeing a demon king emerging from a blood-soaked hell, with absolutely no will to fight left.
All three trembled and knelt down.
“Bang!” Lu Yu’s face was as cold as ice. With one punch, he shattered the head of one kneeling man.
“Those who dare to strike against me—give me one reason to let you live!” Lu Yu’s reply left the two kneeling men pale with fear.
“Roar!”
In front, the Blood Demon Bear’s face had somewhat recovered and immediately charged toward Lu Yu.
Without even turning his head, Lu Yu took the bear’s palm strike on his back. His fists pierced through the chests of the other two kneeling men.
At the same time, Lu Yu was sent flying forward, sliding several meters. His hands pressed against the ground, and he turned mid-air to land.
Everyone saw four deep wounds on Lu Yu’s back, exposing the bone, yet barely any blood flowed…
However, the muscles around the wounds were tightened like steel, even suppressing the blood.
The physical resilience of the Demon Ape truly frightened people.
…
The Soul Devouring Star Soul activated, increasing base life maximum by one thousand points, base attack by one thousand points, and base physique by one thousand points!
…
“The time is almost up. It’s time to end this!” Lu Yu smiled, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
This kind of battle was truly exhilarating.
The basic attributes gained from this fight were over ten times what he had accumulated through previous battles!
Indeed, under high pressure, the growth was fastest.
The Soul Devouring effect was nearly ending. He really wanted to keep fighting. His physical strength had nearly five thousand points converted into attack power, and this number was still changing second by second.
Just imagine how much attack power that would be!
“I refuse to believe it. Today, I will kill you no matter what!” The Blood Demon Bear’s face was changing, seemingly about to heal.
“Haha, to kill me? Not yet!” Lu Yu laughed loudly.
His health was still nearly sixty thousand. The Silver Armor skill was truly beyond belief.
“Try me!”
The Blood Demon Bear roared.
For a being like him, being pushed to this point by a human was nothing but an insult!
The Blood Demon Bear completely reverted to its primal nature, attacking without any rationality.
To the people watching, the Blood Demon Bear was now truly a beast, not a human.
As for Lu Yu—
“Am I not seeing this right!” someone shouted in disbelief.
Lu Yu was even wilder and faster than the Blood Demon Bear.
“Bang!”
Lu Yu’s fist flew out, dealing seven thousand health points of damage to the Blood Demon Bear.
As the bear’s claws pressed onto Lu Yu’s shoulder, Lu Yu dropped his shoulder and slid sideways like lightning, swiftly appearing before the bear and delivering an elbow strike straight to its face.
“Aaargh!”
One of the bear’s eyes exploded, blood flowing from its eye socket…
“It’s over!” someone watching said, already knowing the outcome.
Now, the Blood Demon Bear had been pushed to the brink of losing all rationality, becoming a beast, and was even less likely to win.
“How… how could this happen!” Wu Zizhong’s knees gave way, and he fell to the ground.
They had come here with the support of two monsters at the peak of level one, leaving their city to expand their influence.
But now, everything was over.
His dream was destroyed by a single man.
“I… I don’t want to die!” Zhao Ye’s heart was as cold as death, finally understanding what Lu Yu wanted him to witness.
Lu Yu made him see hope, only to gradually feel death approaching.
Then, watching himself die slowly—this was the heaviest punishment in the world.
“You’re so ruthless,” Zhao Ye couldn’t bear to watch anymore.
At this point, unless a miracle occurred.
Wu Zizhong’s men wanted to flee but were surrounded by others, leaving no escape.
“Coming to Fangang, how could we not offer our hospitality?” someone sneered, saying, “Robbery, assault—you really thought this city was something you could defile?”
In the battlefield, the Blood Demon Bear’s body was dripping blood, already swaying unsteadily, with wounds no longer healing.
“Human, what is your name?” The Blood Demon Bear stood still, its entire body of fur losing its luster, stained red with blood.
The Life Fury could only be used once. He had no more chances.
“Lu Yu!” Lu Yu answered.
Though enemies, the Blood Demon Bear’s strength deserved respect.
“Good. You may take my life!” The bear gave up resistance, lying down and closing its eyes, waiting for death.
“It’s over.”
Wu Zizhong’s last hope was extinguished.
If the Blood Demon Bear had surrendered, what were they worth!
Approaching the Blood Demon Bear, Lu Yu cautiously prepared for any sudden counterattack.
But the bear didn’t move.
Lu Yu concentrated all his strength into his left fist and slammed it into the bear’s head with full force.
The bear’s mouth and nose spewed out fresh blood.
A red-glowing bead flickered and popped out from its forehead.
“A Mutated Star Spirit Bead!”
Many people saw the bead and greed filled their eyes.
This was no ordinary Mutated Star Spirit Bead!
It was a Mutated Star Spirit Bead dropped by a level one peak Blood Demon Bear, worth thousands, maybe even tens of thousands of Star Spirit Beads.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t theirs.
Lu Yu picked up the Star Spirit Bead, glanced at it briefly, and placed it into his pocket.
The highway was deathly silent. Tens of thousands of beasts could smell the stronger blood on Lu Yu’s body. If even a level one peak monster had died at his hands, what were they worth!
How long had it been since they last smelled such an aura? They couldn’t remember.
People dared not even breathe heavily, uncertain of Lu Yu’s next move.
“No wonder the mine owner wanted to ally with Lu Yu—he’s just too strong!” someone truly marveled.
“With these two working together, who could possibly take over that mine?”
The crowd murmured, their last hope of seizing the mine completely gone.
“Zhao Ye, you’ve seen enough, right?” Lu Yu smiled as he turned back, looking at Zhao Ye, who knelt behind him with both arms lost. “This was quite a spectacular fight, wasn’t it?”
Zhao Ye lowered his head. What else could he say at this point?
Lu Yu continued, his expression suddenly turning cold. “I think killing you would dirty my hands. You commit suicide, and I’ll leave your body intact. If I do it, I’ll blow your head apart!”
Zhao Ye raised his hand, glaring at Lu Yu with fierce, sharp eyes, gritting his teeth, wanting to curse.
“Dare say one word, and I’ll blow your head apart too!” Lu Yu snarled.
Zhao Ye closed his mouth. His heart was bleeding.
In the end, he couldn’t even utter a curse, all he could do was preserve his whole body.
Zhao Ye closed his eyes and bit through his tongue, his expression twisted and painful.
Yet, his regeneration ability remained. He couldn’t die.
Again and again, he bit through his tongue, his face becoming hideous, his features contorted.
Wu Zizhong’s men watched Zhao Ye like paralyzed men, then looked at Lu Yu.
This man was ruthless.
Watching Zhao Ye repeatedly commit suicide, enduring the pain without flinching.
The Fangang people, including Blood Eye, held their breath, feeling Lu Yu’s coldness had penetrated to the bone marrow.
Some had seen the mine owner’s battle defending the mine. That man’s dominance was admirable, but Lu Yu’s coldness and cruelty made their hearts tremble.
Three minutes later, Zhao Ye opened his eyes, exhaled his last breath, leaving only hatred on his face.
Without even glancing at Zhao Ye’s corpse, Lu Yu turned around.
His turning left Wu Zizhong and his men drenched in cold sweat.
“F-f-friend. D-d-don’t you know, we’re only part of the two hundred men?” Wu Zizhong’s voice trembled, trying to grasp the last thread of survival.
Lu Yu’s expression remained blank. His eyes, sharp like blades, swept over these men. Slowly, he spat out from between clenched teeth, “How do you want to die?”
