Douluo: One man returns, Fan Tianyin smashes Tang San to death
Chapter 629 The transaction is terminated!
Lu Yu smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, that is a world completely different from Douluo Continent.
Maybe one day I can take you there.”
Zhu Zhuqing said softly: "Lu Yu, no matter where you come from, I only know that you are my friend.
If the Dai family attacks again, I will stand by your side."
Lu Yu felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "Okay, with you here, why should I be afraid of the Dai family? Let's go, it's late, go back and rest.
Dai Mubai's words, 'I won't give up,' I want to see what more waves he can stir up."
The night was as dark as ink. The candlelight flickered in the side hall of the Xingluo Palace, reflecting on the exquisitely carved golden nanmu screen, casting mottled light and shadows.
Dai Mubai's eyes were red, his fists were clenched, his knuckles turned white from the force, and he stood in the center of the hall, his chest almost bursting with anger.
He gritted his teeth, his voice low but filled with uncontrollable anger: "Davis, you're just going to watch that Lu Yu take away everything that belongs to me? My status, my chance to compete, and... and Zhu Qing! Who the hell is he? Why does he step on my head?!"
Davis leaned back in the gilded chair, tapping the armrest with his fingers, a sneer on his face and a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He spoke slowly, his voice low and somewhat sarcastic: "Dai Mubai, your temper really hasn't improved at all.
Lu Yu is indeed a trouble, but it is not just luck that has brought him to where he is today.
If you just keep losing your temper here, you won't even be able to touch him."
Dai Mubai slammed the stone table beside him, causing a crack to appear on the surface. He roared, "I don't care! I want him dead! I want him to pay for everything he took from me!"
His voice echoed in the hall, with a hint of hysteria.
A low cough was heard from behind the curtain of the side hall.
The curtain was slowly lifted, and a middle-aged man in a golden dragon robe walked out. It was the Xingluo Emperor.
His steps were steady, his eyes like an eagle, and when he glanced at Dai Mubai, there was a bit of scrutiny and disappointment.
He spoke slowly, his voice low but with unquestionable majesty: "Mu Bai, you are so cunning that you can hardly accomplish anything great.
Lu Yu is indeed a threat, but if you openly become his enemy, how will you explain this to the Zhu family? The Zhu family and Xingluo have been friends for generations, and Zhu Qing is your fiancée. If you openly attack him, where will Xingluo's reputation be?"
Dai Mubai was stunned. The anger in his eyes subsided slightly, but he was still unwilling to give in. "Father, are we just going to let him continue to be so arrogant? I can't swallow this!"
The Xingluo Emperor snorted coldly, a sinister glint in his eyes: "You have to swallow it even if you can't.
If you want to kill someone, there are so many ways to do it. Why do it yourself? If you really want to, find some people and do it secretly.
After the matter is accomplished, I will take care of the aftermath for you."
He paused, turned his gaze to Davis, and said meaningfully, "Weiss, what do you say?"
Davis raised the corner of his mouth slightly and nodded: “Father is right.
In the open fight, Lu Yu is protected by the Zhu family, so it is difficult for us to take action.
But secretly, who would know it was us who did it? Mu Bai, if you really want revenge, stop yelling here, find some reliable people and do it well.
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Dai Mubai's eyes. He took a deep breath, slowly unclenched his fists, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I understand.
I want Lu Yu to die in the capital and never let him leave alive!"
Emperor Xingluo nodded slightly and waved his hand: "Go ahead. Remember, act in secret and don't let the Zhu family catch you."
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, turned around and strode away. The candlelight in the hall was swaying in the wind he brought.
At the same time, in a quiet house in Xingluo Capital, moonlight shone through the window lattice onto the ground, reflecting a cold and clear scene.
Xiao Wu sat on the edge of the bed, her hands clenched tightly, her brows full of worry.
She looked at Lu Yu, who was standing by the window with his hands behind his back, and whispered, "Brother Yu, do you think Dai Mubai will attack at night? He lost to you in the competition and lost face. I have a feeling he won't let it go."
Lu Yu turned around with a relaxed smile on his face, but a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Xiao Wu, you worry too much.
If Dai Mubai really dares to come, I will make sure he never comes back.
Rest assured, no one in this capital can touch me."
He walked forward and gently patted Xiao Wu's shoulder, his tone gentle but with unquestionable confidence.
Xiao Wu pouted, worry still in her eyes: "But I just feel uneasy.
Dai Mubai is a very petty person. What if he hires someone to plot against you? "
Lu Yu laughed and waved his hand: "Ambush? Then he has to find a more powerful killer.
Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.
Go to bed quickly, you have important things to do tomorrow."
Xiao Wu nodded helplessly, stood up and walked towards the inner room. Just after taking two steps, she suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air outside the window, like a meteor across the night sky.
She turned around suddenly and only had time to exclaim: "Brother Yu!"
A cold light shot out from the window, and the sharp arrow pointed directly at Lu Yu's chest, moving so fast that it was almost impossible to catch.
The arrow, carrying sharp soul power, instantly pierced Lu Yu's body, making a muffled sound.
Xiao Wu, who was standing beside him, widened her eyes, covered her mouth with her hands, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes: "Brother Yu!!"
However, the next moment, a strange scene appeared.
The "Lu Yu" pierced by the arrow
His body slowly dissipated and turned into a faint soul power mist, then quickly condensed and turned into Lu Yu's appearance again.
He stood there, unharmed, with a playful smile on his face: "It's not surprising that someone can be resurrected from the dead, right?"
Xiao Wu was stunned where she was, tears still on her face, staring blankly at Lu Yu: "Brother Yu, are you...are you okay? What on earth is going on?"
Lu Yu patted his sleeves, turned his gaze to the window, and said in a calm tone with a hint of chill: "It's just some tricks.
The soul power fluctuations on this arrow carry a special mark, which should be the mark of a certain killer organization.
His martial soul is the bow and arrow, and his soul power is about at the Soul Saint level. Ha, Dai Mubai has found a really good person."
Before he finished speaking, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and the head of the Zhu family hurried over with several guards.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw that Lu Yu was safe and sound, and he breathed a sigh of relief. There was a bit of panic in his tone: "Lu Yu, are you okay? What happened just now? I heard a noise, and I'm afraid someone is trying to assassinate me!"
Lu Yu waved his hand, signaling everyone to stay calm. He walked to the window, bent over and picked up the sharp arrow that had shot into the room. He looked at it carefully and said slowly, "Uncle Zhu, don't worry, I'm fine.
The mark on the arrow came from a killer organization, whose martial spirit is the bow and arrow, and whose spirit power is not low.
It seems that someone doesn't want me to leave the capital alive."
The Zhu family head's face darkened, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes: "Dai Mubai! This brat really refuses to give up! He doesn't dare to openly become an enemy of our Zhu family, yet he resorts to such despicable tactics!"
Lu Yu smiled slightly, but a sly glint flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Zhu, the fact that Dai Mubai hired assassins means he doesn't dare to openly break ties yet. Since he likes to play dirty tricks, we might as well play along with him."
The Zhu family head was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Lu Yu, what are your plans? This kind of thing cannot be done rashly. Dai Mubai has the Xingluo royal family behind him."
Lu Yu waved his hand, his tone relaxed: "Don't worry, I know what to do.
Uncle Zhu, do you know which assassin organization is the most powerful in the capital? I want to talk to them."
A hint of surprise flashed across the Zhu family head's eyes, and then he whispered, "You want to find 'Shadow'? That's the most mysterious assassin organization in the capital. Their whereabouts are secretive and they don't easily interact with outsiders.
What do you want with them?"
Lu Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "Of course, it's a big gift for them."
The next morning, Lu Yu came alone to a remote alley in the capital. At the end of the alley was an inconspicuous iron gate with several complex soul power patterns engraved on it.
He stood in front of the door, knocked gently, and said in a low voice: "Open the door, I have business to discuss."
After a while, the iron gate slowly opened, and a black-clothed soul master stuck his head out, looked Lu Yu up and down, and said in a bad tone: "Boy, this is not the place for you, get out!"
Lu Yu sneered, clenched his right fist, and a terrifying soul power wave burst out instantly. The wind from the fist whistled and directly knocked the black-clothed soul master several meters away. He hit the wall of the alley and spit out a mouthful of blood.
He slowly retracted his fist and said calmly, "Take me to see your manager, otherwise, you will be next."
A trace of fear flashed in the black-clothed spirit master's eyes. He quickly got up and whispered, "Okay...good man, please follow me!"
He pushed open the iron door and led Lu Yu into a dim underground secret room.
In the secret room, a middle-aged man sat at a stone table, playing with a dagger in his hand. He glanced at Lu Yu with a sharp gaze, “Boy, you are quite courageous. You dare to act wildly in the territory of the Shadow.
Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Lu Yu sat down without hesitation, took out a crystal clear stone from his arms, and squeezed it gently. An image emerged on the stone, which was the scene of Dai Mubai and Davis conspiring in the side hall.
He said calmly: “I believe you know these two.
I want you to help me get rid of one of them, of your choice."
The middle-aged steward's pupils shrank slightly. He stared at the image for a moment and sneered, "Dai Mubai and Davis are two princes of the Xingluo royal family. They are very powerful and have stronger backgrounds.
You want us to kill them? Boy, you must be crazy! "
Lu Yu didn't care. He took out an exquisite jade bottle from his soul guide and gently placed it on the table. He said calmly: "This bottle contains the 'Soul Breaking Pill' that caused a sensation at the auction a year ago. It can allow soul masters to forcibly break through the first level of soul power. There are no side effects below the Soul Saint level.
If you take this order, this bottle of medicine will be the deposit."
The middle-aged steward stared at the jade bottle with a glint of greed in his eyes, but also with a hint of doubt: "Soul-breaking Pill? That thing has long been extinct. Is this bottle of yours...real?"
Lu Yu smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes: “You can try whether it’s true or not.
If it's fake, how about I, Lu Yu, leave my life here for you?"
The middle-aged manager was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, I, Anying, will take this business.
But remember, if this pill is fake, you won't be able to walk out of this door alive!"
Lu Yu laughed heartily, stood up and patted his sleeves: "Then it's a deal.
Waiting for your good news."
He turned and left, his back gradually disappearing in the dim alley, but a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The moonlight was like water, and deep in the Xingluo Empire's palace, lights flickered in a side hall.
Lu Yu sat in the shadows, in front of him was a skinny old man with sinister eyes but an unfathomable aura.
The air in the hall was heavy, and even the candlelight seemed to tremble slightly in this oppressive atmosphere.
"Master Lu Yu, is this potion... really so effective?"
The skinny old man had a hoarse voice and held a crystal clear bottle in his hand. The liquid in the bottle was glowing with a faint blue light and was flowing slightly as if it had life.
Lu Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but his eyes were as cold as ice, "Don't believe it? Let your men try it."
He raised his hand and pointed at the black-clothed soul master behind the old man.
The soul master had a calm aura, and the fluctuations of his soul power showed that his cultivation had remained at the level of Soul Douluo at level 81 for many years.
The old man narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and handed the potion to the black-clothed soul master, "Try it."
There was a hint of tentativeness in his tone.
The black-clothed soul master took the potion and drank it without hesitation.
In an instant, his body trembled violently, and the fluctuations of his soul power surged like a tide, squeezing the surrounding air so that it made a low hum.
After a moment, he opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes, and his aura suddenly broke through to level 82! "This is..."
The black-clothed spirit master was shocked as he felt the surging spirit power in his body, his voice full of disbelief, "I actually broke through!"
The old man's pupils shrank slightly, and he stared at Lu Yu with a little more fear, "Master Lu Yu, this potion is indeed extraordinary.
What do you want us to do?”
Lu Yu tapped the table with his fingers, his voice calm but with an unquestionable pressure, "I want you to assassinate the two princes of the Xingluo royal family, Davis and Dai Mubai.
The potion is a deposit. After the matter is completed, I will give you three more bottles."
"Three bottles?"
The old man frowned, with a hint of reluctance in his tone, “Master, this task is not easy.
The two princes of the Dai family are guarded by Titled Douluo, and the palace is heavily guarded. Three bottles of potion... I'm afraid they won't be enough."
Lu Yu sneered, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, "Not enough? Old ghost, you have to think clearly, I am the only one who has the formula of this potion.
If the task is not completed within three months, the transaction will be terminated.
Do you think that if you miss this opportunity, your assassin organization will still be able to gain a foothold in the mainland?"
The old man's face froze, and his skinny fingers trembled slightly.
He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "Okay! We'll take it! But Master Lu Yu, if we want to complete the mission, we can't be short of potions!"
Lu Yu stood up, the corner of his robe drawing a cold arc in the candlelight, "Of course.
I am waiting for your good news.”
After saying this, he flashed and disappeared into the darkness.
The old man stared at the direction he left, his eyes uncertain.
A moment later, he turned to the black-clad Soul Master beside him and said in a deep voice, "Immediately spread the word that killing either Davis or Dai Mubai will grant you a bottle of mysterious potion that forcibly boosts your strength by one level! Make sure every assassin on the continent knows this!" (End of Chapter)
