Chapter 859: The Troublemaker

The ring was located less than thirty meters away from the outermost defensive shield of Fanggang City.

Golden light shines brilliantly, no starlight can match the golden glow of the ring.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the ring, filled with insatiable greed.

But no one dared to go up.

Before seeing it, they all desperately wanted to get the ring from Lu Yu.

Now the ring has appeared before them, yet no one dares to reach out and take it.

This thing is too hot to handle.

Lu Yu stood on the city wall with disdain and said, “You’re not trying your best to get it, so why don’t you dare to take it?”

One person gritted his teeth and said, “Lu Yu, dare you throw the ring even farther?”

Luo Chen sneered, “Lu Yu, throwing it so close, you never really intended to give up the ring, did you? In fact, you just wanted to provoke a fight between us and then watch from the sidelines, didn’t you?”

None of them dared to take it, as they all believed that Lu Yu had deliberately thrown the ring so close in order to leave himself an opportunity.

Lu Yu didn’t really want to throw it away either; he also had ulterior motives.

King Yama sneered, “Luo Chen, you’ve finally said something. Lu Yu is merely trying to provoke conflict in order to weaken our forces.”

Bang!

Lu Yu jumped down from the city wall and said, “It’s too close, huh? Then I’ll throw it farther.”

Everyone was immediately startled, their hands instinctively tightening around their weapons as they watched to see how far Lu Yu could throw.

Luo Chen and King Yama were slapped in the face by Lu Yu’s single sentence, their facial muscles twitching violently.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Yu truly stepped forward to the domain’s light barrier, then flicked his finger. A pulse of energy shot out, striking the ring thirty meters away.

Ding—

The ring sprang up and then fell to the ground more than a hundred meters away from the defense port.

This distance—

Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but widen.

“Rip!”

In the blink of an eye, two figures pierced through the void and appeared before the ring at the same time.

Bang!

The confrontation between the two began simultaneously. After clashing in midair with a palm strike, their forces were evenly matched.

Both figures couldn’t help but sway slightly.

However, with a flick of the index finger from the other hand of one person, a dark shadow darted out from within the sleeve and snatched up the ring.

Without a moment’s hesitation, the person stood up, tore open the void, and attempted to teleport away.

“You want to leave? Not so easily!” King Yama roared, his voice thundering as he swung a powerful fist straight into the empty space behind him.

Snap!

The void split completely, with countless thick cracks spreading out in all directions from the spot where his fist had struck.

The void rift opened by the person who received the ring was severed in an instant.

Half of this person’s body had already stepped into the void when he was suddenly bounced back.

At the same time, Luo Chen, the golden-haired man, and dozens of other figures rushed toward this person.

Everyone is a king, with dozens of attacks pressing down at once.

Even the person who received the ring could not withstand it.

He merely raised his hand in resistance before his arm was shattered into a pulp of blood.

“Damn it,” the man gritted his teeth, threw the ring on the ground, and quickly stepped back.

Now Luo Chen and the others were already close enough to the ring.

However, no one dared to reach out and take it. All the people were no more than five meters away from the ring, each maintaining a posture as if ready to grab it.

But their eyes were all fixed on the people beside them, silently warning those nearby that anyone daring to take something would be asking for death.

Even the mighty blondes must be cautious now.

The moment he obtained the ring, if he couldn’t leave immediately, he would likely be drawn into a bitter battle.

Lu Yu stood in front of the light shield and smiled: “Everyone, isn’t it far enough? Let me give you a little more help.”

Lu Yu flicked his finger again, sending a shockwave that lifted the ring off the ground. Then, he leaped hundreds of meters away and landed.

Lu Yu smiled and said, “Is this enough?”

No one answered, and no one dared to move.

They all stared in shock at the ring, watching it hit the ground and bounce back up, making a “ding-ding” sound. Everyone’s heart was racing, yet not a single person dared to move.

The air seemed to freeze, and everyone’s breathing became heavy.

The items were already far away from Fanggang, yet no one dared to reach out.

Lu Yu stood still with his arms crossed, watching for a while, then burst into laughter and said, “Just now you said it was too close to Fanggang, and you were afraid I’d cause a fight among you. Now it’s far enough—why aren’t you moving yet?”

What Lu Yu said was completely sarcastic.

Luo Chen and King Yama’s facial muscles twitched even more violently, and their faces turned deathly pale.

“Lu Yu, do you dare to take it?” Luo Chen said in a cold voice, “The item is at the Fanggang, we can’t get in, so you don’t need to worry about keeping it safe. But now you’ve thrown the item out, yet still dare to take it back.”

The blonde-haired man sneered coldly, “Well said. Now, do you dare to come and take it?”

Pairs of eyes gleamed with murderous intent, as if they were about to crush Lu Yu into a bloody pulp.

“Why shouldn’t I dare to take my own things?” Lu Yu lowered his arms and strode directly toward the ring.

Innumerable eyes, some watching openly, others lurking in the shadows.

They all stared intently at Lu Yu, closely watching his every move.

The fair-haired man, Luo Chen, and others felt their faces burning.

They provoked Lu Yu time and time again, yet he seemed to completely ignore them, slapping their faces each time.

Whatever others claimed Lu Yu dared not do, Lu Yu actually dared to do it.

Now Lu Yu dares to go and take the ring. Does he really dare?

A distance of hundreds of meters, neither far nor near.

Lu Yu arrived in a few minutes.

At this moment, everyone’s heart was in their throat. Some people were already exuding a murderous aura, ready to take action.

Lu Yu gently picked up the ring and examined it in his hand, then waved to the crowd and said, “I’ve picked it up, what’s there to be afraid of?”

No one spoke.

Yanluo Wang clenched his fist with one hand, fearing that Lu Yu would bring the ring into the harbor again.

As soon as Lu Yu dares to use teleportation, he will immediately destroy it.

Everyone has such thoughts.

They can’t obtain it, but not many people would want to give up such a treasure either.

With so many experts gathered here, who wouldn’t want to take this chaotic opportunity to see if they stand a chance!

Luo Chen said, “Lu Yu, now that you’ve picked it up, are you planning to take it back with you?”

A king also said solemnly, “Put down the ring and leave by yourself. Or if you insist on taking the ring, then you’d better have the ability to fight your way back to Fanggang. I will acknowledge your ownership of the ring and no longer contend for it.”

Luo Chen also said, “If you truly have the ability to fight your way back, I’ll let go.”

King Yama snorted coldly and said disdainfully, “By him? Can he even make it back alive?”

The kings kept their eyes fixed on Lu Yu, not giving him any chance to make a move.

“Yeah, it’s a bit difficult to fight back,” Lu Yu said, tossing the ring in his hand. “But if you stop competing now, it would be such a waste.”

As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, he flipped his palm.

Everyone thought Lu Yu wanted to run away and shouted in unison, “You can’t escape.”

Boom!

More than a dozen kings joined forces and acted together.

As soon as they raised their hands, they saw the ring in Lu Yu’s hand already flying out, heading toward the distant horizon.

Everyone was ecstatic with joy.

Since Lu Yu threw it so far, whoever grabbed it first could potentially escape.

With his eyes wide and fixed like the King of Hell, he stared at Lu Yu and roared, “Lu Yu, you dare!”

The ring transformed into a beam of golden light, tracing a perfect arc through the air before landing directly in the Bloodlight City, twenty kilometers away from Fangang.

“Ahh!” King Yama screamed, completely ignoring Lu Yu now, and dashed madly toward his own city.

“Yanluowang, do you want to go back and seize the ring?” The golden-haired man struck first, his palm radiating intense golden light that intercepted Yanluowang.

“Damn it, I’m going back to throw out the ring!” King Yama roared, blocking the golden-haired man’s attack with a wave of his hand.

But at this moment, dozens of kings had already rushed toward the Bloodlight City.

“Roar.”

The earth dragon roared furiously within the city, and the blood-eyed warriors soared into the sky, charging towards the approaching enemies.

“Whoever stands in my way shall die!” Luo Chen was the fastest, rushing ahead in the lead.

He had lost all elegance; his eyes were blood-red and eerie, his hair swirling wildly like blood. Like a blood demon, he plunged into the midst of the blood-eyed warriors. With a sweep of his hands, blood-red threads slashed through the void. Dozens of blood-eyed warriors were torn apart, and none could stop Luo Chen.

Luo Chen landed on the ground and immediately reached for the ring with one hand.

However, in the sky, dozens of powerful presences immediately descended, completely not giving Luo Chen any chance to rise again.

Luo Chen slapped his palm towards the sky, colliding with dozens of other forces.

Boom!

The shockwave generated by the collision of their breaths swept through the surroundings, shattering house after house, and turning hordes of earth dragons below king-level into bloodied pulp.

The ground was covered with chunks of flesh, all writhing and squirming.

Hum.

From the void all around, more than a dozen figures exuding the aura of kings suddenly stepped forth. Some swung their weapons toward Luo Chen, while others lunged directly for the ring in his hand.

The Bloodlight City was turned upside down as dozens of Kings launched a fierce battle within its walls.

The golden-haired man also charged towards the City of Bloodlight like Yama, the King of Hell.

Yanluowang looked at the City of Bloodlight, where streams of bloody aura kept rising and earthworms screamed in agony. He turned around angrily to glare at Lu Yu and said, “Lu Yu, you did this on purpose.”

“Got it right, I did it on purpose. King Yama, don’t you have better things to do than chat with me now? Aren’t you afraid your city will be destroyed in a moment?”

Lu Yu stood in his place, laughing heartily, “You want to take it by force, right? Now I’m giving you a chance to fight for it. Is twenty kilometers away from Fanggang City far enough for you this time?”

“Lu Yu, just you wait.”

King Yama did not dare to delay. He quickly gathered his subordinates and rushed back into the city.

“Stop right there, or I’ll kill you all!” Yama, the King of Hell, roared as he charged forward.

However, no one inside was listening to him at all.

There are a total of four hundred kings in Xueguang City, and now all of them are rushing toward the center of the battlefield.

Among these bloodshot eyes, some had also joined the chaos, snatching the ring and attempting to flee.

Boom.

Yanluo Wang returned and punched through the bloodshot eye, piercing through the chest with one blow.

It’s in chaos, the City of Bloodlight is in chaos.

Inside Fanggang City, numerous soldiers stood in shock, their eyes wide as they watched with furrowed brows.

They thought Lu Yu would fight fiercely for the ring and return after killing again.

After all, many people have said that as long as Lu Yu brings the ring back to the city, he will no longer get involved.

But no one expected that Lu Yu would actually use this move.

If the ring falls into the city of blood, it will be a disaster.

Even from more than twenty kilometers away, the people could see the Bloodlight City and the ferocity of the battle raging within.

“Lu Yu, just you wait! I’m not done with you!” the King of Hell roared, nearly driven mad with rage.

The group led by Luo Haotian in Fanggang City watched with great excitement, never expecting Lu Yu to be so ruthless.

“It’s exciting; this way, we can also observe the other party’s strength.”

“It’s not just that. By building the city so close to Fanggang, isn’t King Yama intending to bring harm to Fanggang? Now, Mr. Lu’s move might very well destroy half of Bloodlight City.”

Yang Lie wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and chuckled, “Thank goodness it’s not in our hands; otherwise, we’d be hunted down to our deaths as soon as we stepped out of Fanggang.”

“Pity,” Liu Xing said, shaking his head as he stood on the city wall, “this item is priceless; it’s such a shame to just throw it away like this.”

Lu Yu stood beneath the city wall, smiling confidently. “Don’t worry,” he said, “before long, they’ll have no choice but to return the ring to me.”
