High Martial Arts: A Cataclysmic Beast? I am the only Beast Tamer!

Jinling City.

On the square in front of the city lord's mansion.

now.

A figure appeared amidst streaks of light descending from the sky.

In just a moment.

The huge square immediately erupted in a cacophony of noise and excitement.

"That is..."

"The demigod patriarch of the Wu family in Shanghai? And that little vixen from Shanghai, Wu Sihan, she's here too!"

"Isn't that Xie Yuanfeng, the young master from the capital?"

"The old man in front of him has a terrifying aura. Could he be the demigod ancestor of the Xie family in the capital?"

"hiss--"

"The young man carrying the broadsword has arrived too. His attire looks familiar; could that be Zuoqiu Feng?"

"The three heroes of Taiwan Province have also arrived! And there's also that one and only demigod from Taiwan Province!"

"Huh?"

"Is that some kind of family from Tibet? And the leaders are actually demigod ancestors!"

"My goodness!"

"Are those the patriarchs of the four major martial arts academies? They've all come as a group?"

"..."

Above the City Lord's Mansion Square.

now.

Divine power surged, and aura roamed freely.

One after another, demigod-level powerhouses appeared.

People from all sorts of families, big and small, in the square never stopped exclaiming in surprise.

Since the God of War disappeared and the Dark Star invaded.

This was the first time anyone had ever seen so many of the strongest human warriors gathered together.

To know.

In the past three years, the Dark Star has ravaged the area.

These top families were either harmed by the Dark Star or went into hiding and never showed themselves.

Including demigods, almost all of them have disappeared without a trace and have never shown up.

Even the four once-powerful martial arts academies.

During these three years, they lived in their own secluded little worlds, never appearing in the public eye.

Although the humans on Earth had many complaints about this, no one really blamed them.

after all--

Everyone is well aware of the power and terror of the Dark Star Clan.

Even the God of War was besieged and killed, and his whereabouts remain unknown.

Even if these families and martial academies' demigod ancestors teamed up to fight against them, it would be difficult for them to gain any advantage over the Dark Star Clan.

It would be better to play it safe and wait for the right opportunity.

And now?

Lu Yu reappeared after disappearing for three years, and immediately unleashed the trump card of "God-Slaying Dark Star".

These families and powerful individuals, who had been lying low for so long, had finally waited for the most opportune moment.

"etc!"

"What day is it today? Why are so many important figures arriving in Jinling City?"

"I don't know, could it be... that Lord Lu Yu has emerged from seclusion today?"

"What? Really?"

"If that's the case, I'll have to inform the family patriarch to come to Jinling immediately!"

"Hehe, I've already sent out the communication, and my ancestor is on his way!"

"..."

The square was still bustling with noise.

The many "old friends" of Lu Yu who arrived one after another nodded to each other and then walked together toward the city lord's mansion.

there.

There were people they truly wanted to see, or rather, to apologize to and pay a visit to, on their trip.

that……

Lu Yu, once a boy, is now the leader of the human race!

……

……

The main hall of the city lord's mansion.

The once empty hall was now filled with people.

At the very front were all ancestral figures at the demigod level.

And then.

Representatives from various regions and families across China have also continuously joined the movement.

of course.

There are also thresholds for each family to enter this hall.

At least--

There must be a Saint-level being in the family; otherwise, they wouldn't even be qualified to appear here.

after all--

According to a previous announcement by Jiang Zhenmin, the deputy city lord of Jinling.

Today is the day Lu Yu emerges from seclusion.

therefore.

We have specially invited many powerful figures of the Chinese race to gather here to discuss the grand plan for fighting against the Dark Star and the Abyss, as well as for the revival of the human race!

"Lord Jiang."

In front of the hall.

Several family patriarchs with demigod-like auras dared not put on airs in front of Jiang Zhenmin, who was only at the Venerable level. Instead, they spoke to him with utmost politeness and respect.

after all--

The seemingly ordinary Jiang Zhenmin was actually the person Lu Yu personally appointed to manage all matters, big and small, in Jinling before Lu Yu went into seclusion.

In other words.

When Lu Yu is not around, he represents Lu Yu!

To disrespect him is to disrespect Lu Yu.

In today's China, who has the audacity to disrespect Lu Yu, who can kill the god Dark Star?

"Gentlemen—"

"Thank you for visiting Nanjing today. If there is any inadequacy in our hospitality, please forgive us."

Jiang Zhenmin remained neither humble nor arrogant when facing the several demigod ancestors, and responded with a fist salute.

these people.

They all came from the communication invitations he sent earlier.

And this was exactly what Lu Yu meant.

Three days ago.

Lu Yu had already contacted him and informed him of his and Qin Shiyao's return to Blue Star.

only.

Lu Yu said he still had some matters to attend to on the overseas mainland and would return to China in three days.

therefore.

Jiang Zhenmin then set the date for today.

"If there is any offense, please forgive me."

"I just don't know..."

"Mr. Lu Yu, when exactly will you emerge from seclusion?"

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye.

Several hours passed.

The few demigod ancestors at the front exchanged glances, came forward together, looked at Jiang Zhenmin, and asked politely.

This statement came out.

The attention of everyone in the hall was immediately drawn to it.

And the next moment.

After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Zhenmin's answer left everyone stunned, even causing them to gape in shock!

"Since everyone is here today, I will no longer hide anything from you."

Jiang Zhenmin paused slightly, then said in a deep voice:

"Actually, Lu Yu did not go into seclusion."

"On the contrary."

"He's not even in Nanjing!"

This statement came out.

The hall fell silent for a moment, then erupted in uproar!

"What!?"

"Lu Yu didn't go into seclusion?"

"But when we visited before, didn't they say that Lu Yu was in seclusion and wouldn't be receiving guests? What does this mean now?"

"Whether you're in seclusion or not doesn't matter, but what's the point of this being outside of Jinling City?"

"Lord Jiang, did you invite us here today merely to play a trick on us?"

"..."

Inside the lobby.

The powerful figures present looked at each other, all extremely puzzled.

Some of the more cautious ones even secretly activated their internal energy fluctuations, observing their surroundings, fearing a trap.

The few demigods at the front, though surprised, appeared much calmer.

"Lord Jiang, please explain in detail?"

The demigods bowed slightly, maintaining their polite demeanor.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhenmin nodded subtly, and then slowly uttered a sentence:

"One month ago, after the Battle of Nanjing ended."

"Lu Yu then passed through the Gate of the Abyss alone and headed towards the Abyss Realm!"

The words fell.

The hall was deathly silent!

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief, fear, and worry!

The Abyss Realm?

That's the stronghold of the abyssal behemoths!

The abyssal behemoths are definitely a more terrifying and horrifying threat than the Dark Star race!

"He's back!"

At a critical moment.

Jiang Zhenmin threw out another question.

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

After catching my breath, I was immediately filled with awe and curiosity.

"That……"

"How was your trip, Lord Lu Yu?"

"Will there be any danger? Will there be any injuries? Will there be any gains?"

The voice just fell.

In the void.

Suddenly, a young boy's soft laughter rang out.

"Good question!"

Upon hearing the voice, all of Lu Yu's old friends were overjoyed and stood up abruptly!
