The blood-soaked beast below the city wall was climbing up along the barrier.
The warriors on the city wall activated their skills one by one, launching attacks toward the Blood-weeping Beasts on the ground.
Rows of Qi Xue Beasts were轰成 pulp and fell into the blood sea, where they quickly regenerated. However, they did not undergo division here.
A king shouted loudly from a distance, “Bring out those Blood-Weeping Beasts; don’t let them die in the Sea of Blood.”
Immediately, people began using various skills to pull large numbers of Blood-weeping Beasts onto the city wall, then throwing them into the city.
Immediately, someone in the city stepped forward and slew the blood-weeping beast within the city walls.
These people were so quick and well-trained in their movements.
As if they had collaborated for a long time, there was not a hint of panic.
Lu Yu thought for a moment, then jumped down as well, joining the crowd in attacking the Blood-weeping Beast that had been thrown into the city.
Lu Yu noticed that these people’s movements were extremely skilled, as if they had coordinated many times before.
He thought for a moment and then suddenly understood.
Because this is the blood ocean that could destroy the underworld.
They had long since figured out the attributes of the Blood-Crying Beast and the characteristics of the Blood Sea Tsunami; in fact, they had been preparing all along.
The previous descent of darkness was somewhat similar to the current situation. Perhaps back then they already had a way to separate the king-tier beasts from the vast clouds of dark mist during the descent of darkness, and then capture and bring them into the city for elimination.
It’s just a matter of continuing to cooperate, and with time, it will naturally become second nature.
However, there were too many of these Blood-Weeping Beasts; in a short while, more than ten thousand had been thrown into the city.
Tens of thousands of people crowded together attacking, no one dared to be careless.
Lu Yu mingled with the crowd, not only engaging in kills but also seizing the opportunity to snatch the corpses of the Blood-weeping Beasts into his own storage space when others were unprepared.
If ten thousand heads of cattle could bring in nearly a hundred, Lu Yu knew that was already a profit.
Soon, the area below the city wall was piled high with the corpses of hundreds of thousands of blood-weeping beasts. These carcasses formed mounds that nearly reached the height of the city wall itself.
“Boom!”
A king, wreathed in flames from head to toe, charged forward and unleashed a vast sea of fire toward the beast-like hill.
Lu Yu knew that the body was going to be burned in order to clear up space.
While monitoring the sea of fire for beast corpses, Lu Yu secretly took action and pulled another hundred beast corpses into his storage space.
He did all of this very secretly; even Wang, who was standing nearby, did not notice Lu Yu’s subtle movements.
After these beast corpses were completely burned, new blood-weeping beasts were thrown in again.
Outside the city walls, the flames of war raged fiercely.
In the underground world, there is no distinction between day and night.
People simply know to rest when they are tired and to eat when they are hungry.
Lu Yu followed these people without revealing his identity.
He was merely calculating time slowly.
It was probably three days later that he had already collected nearly a thousand animal carcasses.
“Roar!”
A roar of a king-level blood-crying beast echoed from outside the city.
Several kings on the city wall joined forces, bursting through the barrier together to capture the king-level Blood-weeping Beast and drag it into the city.
Now they no longer care whether this action will ruin the city; their only goal is to temporarily hold back the crimson tide.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The barrier shook even more violently.
More king-level blood-weeping beasts appeared outside the city.
Lu Yu and the ordinary Blood Eye clan warriors quickly retreated.
The King-level battle has begun; ordinary people can’t even think about getting close.
A bloodshot-eyed warrior groaned in pain, “How are we supposed to live like this?”
“This is a King-tier battle. We can’t even think about getting involved. Even if we wanted to say something, we wouldn’t be able to.”
“If I ever get my hands on the idiot who did this, I’ll tear him apart limb by limb.”
“I’m still short by one billion Star Spirit Stones to exchange for a Supreme Star Weapon with dual attributes and dual skills from the Divine Task Stone. Now that the city is sealed off, where am I supposed to earn money?”
A group of people, some complaining, others cursing.
Lu Yu immediately said, “Friend, do you want the Supreme Star Weapon?”
The warrior glanced at Lu Yu, nodded, and said, “Of course I want that. If I had a Supreme Star Weapon with two attributes, my strength would increase to thirty thousand zuns. Although such power isn’t superior to a King Zun’s, it would certainly allow me to fight against one.”
“Not only does he want it, but none of us here would refuse it either. With a Supreme Star Weapon in hand, one’s attributes could be enhanced by at least a thousand points. With such an increase in attributes, our chances of survival in times like these would definitely improve.”
“Friend, is this your star weapon?” someone asked, eyeing the star weapon in Lu Yu’s hand with shining eyes. “May I take a look?”
“Of course.” Lu Yu generously handed over the Xing Soldier in his hand.
The other party took it and, after just a quick glance, exclaimed in astonishment, “Heavens, am I seeing this right? A triple-attribute, dual-skill Supreme Star Soldier with a valuation of 50,000? Goodness gracious, this is an extraordinary treasure, absolutely extraordinary!”
“What? A three-attribute Supreme Star Soldier worth 50,000?” Immediately, people gathered around from all directions.
Even the battles of kings in the distance could no longer attract them.
The Supreme Star Soldier was passed around among the crowd, and everyone was extremely excited.
Someone exclaimed excitedly, “Friend, are you selling this Star Soldier? If you’re willing to sell, I’ll give you one hundred billion Star Spirit Stones for it!”
“Old Li, your offer is too low. I’ll pay two hundred billion Star Spirits Stones plus a Blue Star Soul.”
“Give it to me. I’ll pay two hundred and thirty billion, plus two pieces of Blue Planet Soul.”
“Damn it, I claimed it first. It should be mine.”
A group of people erupted into a frenzy, crowding around Lu Yu and continuously raising their bids.
Lu Yu coughed once and glanced around.
Immediately, everyone fell silent, each swallowing hard.
Lu Yu whispered, “Actually, there’s no need for everyone to rush. I once received a mission and obtained a batch of Supreme Star Weapons, similar to this one. I’ve been holding onto them, planning to give them to friends later. However, seeing the current situation, I don’t think I can keep them anymore. I might as well sell them to you all—I only ask for Star Spirit Stones and Blue Planet Souls in return.”
“You have a batch. How many pieces are there?”
“What kind of mission do you have that actually involves a group of Zun-level star soldiers? That can’t be real!”
Lu Yu immediately pretended to take something out from the storage bead, but actually retrieved the item from his storage space.
More than ten Supreme Star Weapons fell to the ground, creating a clattering sound that made everyone’s eyebrows twitch in alarm.
“A star soldier for two hundred billion star spirit stones plus two Blue Star Souls, I think this price is reasonable, right?”
“Give me a sword.”
“I want a sword.”
“Damn it, there’s no way to save money now. The priority is to save my life. I’ll take this one too.”
The fifteen Supreme Star Weapons were snatched up in an instant.
“Brother, do you have any more?”
“Yeah, if there are any more goods like this, don’t hesitate to sell them. If you hold onto them and the city falls, you might never get another chance to sell.”
Quite a few people were still surrounding Lu Yu, unwilling to give up, urging and questioning him eagerly, hoping that Lu Yu would bring out another one or two items.
Lu Yu chuckled and said, “There are still some left, along with a few sets of armor.”
This time, Lu Yu took out an armor with a million defense points, which immediately stunned everyone present.
“One thousand Blue Planet Souls for this armor. I only have three sets; one for myself, and I’m selling the other two.”
“I’ll take it.” Before anyone could mention the price, someone from the crowd immediately pushed forward and grabbed the armor from Lu Yu, then quoted a price.
“I’ll take the remaining one.” The other item was quickly quoted by another person as well.
The transaction was very straightforward.
Lu Yu delivered the goods, and then the two suits of armor were quickly sold.
Then Lu Yu took out five more Star Weapons.
Just taken out, it was immediately sold out.
Someone was still staring at Lu Yu, wanting to ask if Lu Yu had any more.
At this moment, a mighty regal aura descended from above the group.
A cold voice came from above: “I heard that someone here is selling top-grade weapons and armor, is that right?”
As he spoke, a king landed on the spot.
Instantly, all the hundreds of people surrounding Lu Yu knelt down.
This was a young king, about twenty years old. He looked Lu Yu up and down and said, “Is it you who is selling these things?”
Lu Yu hurriedly said, “My lord, I’m merely selling items I no longer need to everyone.”
“I don’t care what you’re selling. With the bloody tsunami appearing now and everyone fighting desperately, you actually dare to conduct business here?” The young king said coldly. “How many star soldiers and armors do you still have? Hand them all over. As punishment, I also want all the money you earned from your sales just now.”
Although the hundreds of people kneeling on the ground dared not raise their heads, each one wore an expression of resentment.
This is nothing less than open robbery.
But the other party is a king; this is the hierarchy, this is power, something you cannot resist.
Lu Yu looked at the young king and laughed repeatedly, saying, “My lord, is this really necessary? I worked hard for this money—it could even cost me my life!”
The young Wang said coldly, “Do you even know what period this is? You’re here running your business instead of guarding the city walls. If I don’t punish you, others will think they can do the same, and then who will be left to defend this city? Don’t argue with me; hand over everything immediately, or else I’ll take it from you myself.”
Lu Yu looked at the king across from him and smiled lightly. “Since that’s the case, I guess I have no choice then.”
The young Wang nodded and said, “Very well. It seems you still have some self-awareness. Hand over the items, and you can follow me. I guarantee you won’t lose your life when the city falls.”
“Then I’ll be grateful, sir.” Lu Yu bowed with his fists clasped together.
The young king saw Lu Yu lower his head, and a triumphant smile spread across his lips.
However, suddenly, the young king’s smile froze.
Because the person in front of him had emitted fluctuations of a Star Artifact.
Boom!
A figure dashed into the sky, transforming into a streak of light that shot towards the void, piercing through the barrier.
“He still has a Star Artifact on him?” Young Wang was stunned, still unable to comprehend what was happening.
Lu Yu had already arrived above the Blood Sea outside the city. He laughed loudly and said, “Thank you all. Since someone wouldn’t let me stay in this city to conduct business, I have no choice but to leave. Don’t regret it.”
Behind Lu Yu, the wings of the Eagle King trembled, and in an instant, he vanished into the sky above the city.
Amidst the crimson waves, countless tongue spears spat by blood-soaked beasts strike only empty air, unable to even catch a shadow of Lu Yu.
Just then, another king suddenly appeared beside the young king.
This is a towering man standing two meters tall, his bronze-colored skin wrapped in a glow of blood.
As soon as the giant Han appeared, the air around seemed to transform into mountains, leaving even the young king gasping for breath.
“Just now, what was that? I seemed to feel a very powerful star-imbued artifact leaving the city,” the big man asked, glancing around.
When the young Wang saw the giant man, he immediately knelt on one knee and respectfully reported, “Lord City Governor, just now I saw them neglecting their duty at the city defenses and instead conducting a transaction with a certain individual. So I came to stop the transaction, but suddenly that person flew into the sky and vanished.”
The big man said, “Transaction? What kind of transaction?”
A warrior trembled as he raised the armor in his hands and said, “Lord of the City, it’s this kind of armor, and also the Supreme Star Weapon.”
The big man took the armor, glancing at it briefly.
He did not even glance at the attributes of the millions of statues.
He casually tossed it to the soldier and turned to look at the young Wang Dao, asking, “Tell me, what did that person look like?”
The young king immediately described Lu Yu’s appearance.
The big man suddenly raised his fist and slammed it directly into the young king’s face, roaring, “I’ll beat the hell out of you, you bastard! Do you even know who you’ve just offended?”
