Chapter 613: Who Laughs Last

Everything was too unexpected.

There are no enemies on the battlefield; all eyes are on the Regeneration King.

Now, except for the laughter of the King of Rebirth, there was no other sound on the battlefield nearby.

The armored man never expected such an outcome, nor did his subordinates anticipate it would end up this way.

Lu Yu was somewhat surprised.

The two sides, who were just a moment ago locked in fierce competition, suddenly heard Sheng Wang say he wanted to cooperate with Lu Yu. Even Lu Yu was taken aback.

The armored man thought he had misheard and shouted, “What did you say? What did you just say?”

“I have said all I need to say.” The Reborn King looked at Lu Yu coldly and said, “Lu Yu, whether you agree to cooperate or not depends solely on you nodding or shaking your head.”

He is the King, with the pride of a king.

He had already lowered his proud head to seek cooperation with the enemy who had just been fighting fiercely with him.

If Lu Yu refused, he would rather fight his way out than utter a single word.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Lu Yu.

Countless Chinese people behind them found it unbelievable, with some so excited that they trembled uncontrollably.

What does this represent, and what does it indicate?

Lu Yu has always been using Fang Gang’s military forces for external operations. However, he has never truly collaborated with any genuine king.

That’s how Lu Yu came to possess his current power.

If working with the same king, how far could Lu Yu’s power reach?

Many people held their breath, waiting anxiously for Lu Yu’s final answer.

If Lu Yu agrees, this could be a big news.

The capital of the resurrected kings is guarded by a single individual; no matter how powerful, one person alone cannot form a formidable force.

However, these awakened kings are not the same.

They have their own legion. To resurrect such a force using the Guardians’ abilities would cost an astronomical amount. Once this force becomes powerful enough, it would be capable of rivaling the Guardians themselves.

Just like the King of Hell is the best example.

He was in a country with the heavily armored men, yet his power was such that even the armored warriors dared not provoke him lightly.

This is the power of the awakened king.

The armored figure set his sights on this power, eager to seize it for himself.

But he made a fatal mistake by allowing the Reborn King to seek an alliance with Lu Yu, and the cost was too great.

Therefore, resurrecting a king and gaining a revived king as an ally are completely different things.

The armored figure said sternly, “Lu Yu, you’ve forgotten our agreement. This is an Indian man; you must not interfere in my affairs with him.”

Lu Yu tilted his head and glanced at the armored figure with a smile: “A promise? Our promise was directed at Abesha, not the Reborn King. Don’t forget, you’ve already gotten everything you wanted. Why are you still trying to stop me?”

There was a glint of deadly intent in Lu Yu’s eyes, showing no sign of backing down.

“You—” the armored man raised both hands, speechless.

Lu Yu looked at the Regeneration King at this moment and smiled, saying, “Since you want to cooperate, I agree. From today on, starting now, you are my ally.”

“Haha!” Reincarnation King laughed heartily. “Good. Lu Yu, remember this. As long as you do not betray me, I will never betray you. This is my dignity as a king.”

The armored man’s raised hand was trembling.

All of this was unexpected.

He wanted to kill the Reincarnated King and then reincarnate him for his own use.

What he wants is the power of the reborn king. Only with a king can this power be controlled.

But now the situation had spiraled beyond his expectations, a change not even Lu Yu could have foreseen.

Lu Yu flew to the side of the heavily armored man and said, “A Bushe is dead, and you have gained everything he possessed. Then you should fulfill your promise.”

“Five thousand billion star spirit stones, not a single one less. I promise,” the armored figure said, taking a deep breath to calm his nearly exploding anger. “Open your storage space; I’ll transfer the star spirit stones to you right away.”

“It seems you are an enemy who is willing to keep his word.” Lu Yu opened his storage space, and five hundred billion Star Spirit Stones flowed in like a luminous starry dragon, disappearing into his storage space.

“Haha, not a single point missing. The agreement is over.” Lu Yu couldn’t help but laugh aloud as the last star spirit stone was absorbed into his storage space.

Lu Yu waved his hand urgently, signaling his people to retreat.

Others couldn’t tell, but Luo Haotian and others noticed.

Luo Haotian thought for a moment, then walked up to the Regeneration King and whispered, “Since we’re allies, I’ll give you a warning. Leave now with your people and follow us, or stay here. The hand signal Master Lu made indicates that there’s still something more to happen between him and the armored figure.”

The Reborn King thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice: “Let’s go! There’s nothing here worth using anymore. In Huaxia, I can seize a city and start anew!”

Hundreds of thousands of Rebirth Devils, seeing the hand signal from the Rebirth King, began to gather toward Luo Hao Tian.

The two great armies converged, with more than half a million troops retreating together, creating a spectacular sight.

Especially this time, Lu Yu actually brought back a king and hundreds of thousands of demons as allies. Such news would be sensational enough to shake the entire Huaxia upon spreading there.

The whole world would probably envy Lu Yu’s luck.

The Reborn King is an enemy who seems to be in an irreconcilable conflict with Lu Yu. The two sides have clashed multiple times, clearly being sworn enemies.

However, this also confirms a saying — there are no eternal enemies on the battlefield. Perhaps the enemy of one moment can become an ally the next!

The armored figure could only watch helplessly as Regen King and his army departed, filled with rage.

“Lu Yu, are you afraid that I’ll ambush your people and intercept them here?” The armored man’s anger grew as he saw that Lu Yu had no intention of leaving.

“Intercept? If you really want to settle this between us here and now, I don’t mind committing all my forces,” Lu Yu said coldly. “You haven’t committed all your forces—do you really think I’ve sent in all of mine?”

“That’s exactly why I wanted to leave the outcome between us until the end,” said the armored figure. “Come on, I won’t attack you from behind.”

Lu Yu clasped his hands behind his back, his voice cold. “Remember this: if you ever try to cooperate with me again while hiding things from me, the price you pay will be far greater than today’s.”

“What?” The armored man did not understand.

“Roar!” the Violent King suddenly roared, swinging both his heads. The power of Star Annihilation surged directly toward a nearby King Venerable and several other Kings.

“What are you doing?!” The armored man was greatly startled, caught off guard by the暴烈王’s sudden attack and thrown into confusion.

Not only him, but no one had expected the暴烈王 to suddenly strike at this moment.

One king managed to escape, while two kings and a king lord were struck by a fireball. Half of one king’s body was blown to pieces, while another king and a king lord were directly turned to ashes.

Such a shocking change came too suddenly.

The Violent King shook his body, and suddenly hundreds of thousands of beast demons exploded, transforming into streams of bloodlight that surged into the Violent King’s body.

By the time the armored figure and the others realized what was happening, the暴烈王 had already lunged at the half-bodied king, bringing down his massive claws with ferocity and smashing the remaining half of the king’s body into a pulp.

“Violent King, what are you doing?” the armored figure shouted in anger, his heart bleeding.

What kind of day is this? Why are things happening one after another, all beyond his expectations?

It was at this moment that the people at the back, who had not left all along, were stunned.

The Violent King should now belong to the armored man. How could he suddenly turn against the Guardian?

“It’s nothing, just that we belong to different factions now,” the King of Fury said, as flames once again gathered in both of his heads.

The armored figure clenched his teeth, his eyes flashing with cold light, and shouted fiercely, “Explode!”

Boom!

The body of the Tyrant King exploded, with countless chunks of flesh and bones splattering into the sky, only to be reduced to ashes. Not even a trace of his existence remained in this world.

“Lu Yu, did you do this?” The armored man raised his head, his cold gaze fixed on Lu Yu. If looks could kill, he would have already slain Lu Yu on the spot.

“That’s right. It was me. The faction chosen by the Violent King is now mine, so he’s beyond your control,” Lu Yu said coldly, standing midair with his hands behind his back. “This is the price I was talking about. I don’t care who you are; if you want to cooperate again, you’d better be completely transparent. Otherwise, I’ll make you pay an even heavier price than today.”

“Lu Yu, you’re doing great! Haha…” The heavily armored man laughed maniacally and said, “I didn’t expect you to outwit me in the end.”

Suddenly, the armored man’s smile came to a sharp halt. His eyes, brimming with murderous intent, locked onto Lu Yu as he snarled, “Do you believe I’ll kill you right now?”

He was really on the verge of losing his mind with anger.

He spent fifty billion Star Spirit Stones, several Kings and King Elders he had cultivated himself, and lost half of his elite forces, which numbered over a thousand.

At this moment, Fan Tian Luo and the others behind understood.

Why did the暴烈王 only kill the men of the heavily armored person just now, but not touch a single one of Lu Yu’s men?

Lu Yu took the Violent King away from the battlefield, and something happened during that time which had already made the Violent King choose his side.

Everyone raised their eyebrows, their faces brimming with excitement.

“That’s great. It’s really unexpected that the Violent King has chosen to side with Lu Yu.”

“This can’t be true. The Violent King is clearly more powerful than Lu Yu. He single-handedly killed two Kings and is still ready to fight. This… this—” one person couldn’t find the words, feeling somewhat dizzy.

“My eyes must be playing tricks on me; there are just too many surprises today!” someone exclaimed excitedly, clearly a fan of Lu Yu. At that moment, he was almost laughing uncontrollably.

Lu Yu first gained a king as an ally, and now he has also won over the fierce King Bao.

In this battle, the armored warrior seemed to emerge victorious. Yet, no matter how one looks at it, it’s Lu Yu who truly ends up laughing last.

The Violent King alone destroyed four armored kings, two king elders, and nearly a hundred experts with the power of ten thousand cultivators.

It would probably cost a lot to bring these lives back through the armored figure.

Especially when the暴烈王 left, he took with him hundreds of thousands of beast demons. This suggests that the暴烈王 himself may possess a powerful beast nest, with space inside his body to parasitize hundreds of thousands of beast demons.

The Regeneration King took away hundreds of thousands of regeneration demons, while the Violent King took all the beast demons.

Nowadays, only two thousand warriors remain by the side of the heavily armored man.

The armored man was so enraged that he almost wanted to kill someone. He thought he could control this army of nearly a million soldiers, but in the end, nothing was left.

“I really want to kill you right now!” The armored man raised his hand again, and the starlight on his armor flashed wildly.

“Do you really think I’m the only one here?” Lu Yu raised his hand and snapped his fingers!

Boom!

From ten rifts in the sky, ten figures clad in black robes fell forth, plummeting directly behind Lu Yu before coming to a stop.

“If you want to fight, I’ll always be here for you,” Lu Yu said coldly. “You haven’t used your full strength. Do you really think I have no hidden tricks up my sleeve?”
