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

"Lu Yu?!"

"Is it Xiaoyu?"

"Lord Lu Yu is back?!"

"..."

Inside the main hall of the city lord's mansion.

As soon as the boy finished speaking, everyone present stood up!

"Lu Yu is back!"

at the same time.

Jiang Zhenmin and his group, who were originally presiding over the meeting at the front of the hall, were now all beaming with surprise.

Although he had received Lu Yu's message before, he only felt truly at ease after seeing him return in person.

Behind Jiang Zhenmin.

A blush appeared on Jiang Xueying's pretty face.

Although their separation was only a little over a month, she missed Lu Yu terribly...

hum-

buzz-

The void trembled slightly.

The boy's slightly thin figure emerged faintly from within.

Standing beside him was Qin Shiyao, who had returned with him.

only.

At this moment, Qin Shiyao's pretty face, hidden under her black hood, was completely flushed.

because--

Lu Yu was still holding her hand tightly at that moment.

"Hmm~"

Qin Shiyao let out a soft moan, and with a little effort, shyly pulled her hand away.

Apart from Jiang Xueying, no one else present noticed this small detail.

"snort--"

"I was wondering why my cousin had disappeared. Turns out the two of them went on their 'honeymoon' together."

Jiang Xueying hummed softly, her voice barely audible, but the affection in her gaze toward Lu Yu did not diminish in the slightest; on the contrary, it deepened.

She knew this day would come.

She never imagined that she could monopolize Lu Yu, a boy so outstanding that there was no other like him on the entire planet.

"Gentlemen—"

Lu Yu had no time to pay attention to the girl's thoughts at the moment.

After he appeared, he spoke loudly and greeted everyone.

His gaze swept around the hall, lingering a little longer on the faces of his former acquaintances.

Lu Yu himself hadn't expected this.

He only asked Jiang Zhenmin to gather some powerful human warriors, but all these old friends ended up gathering together.

When these old friends saw Lu Yu, their eyes were filled with nostalgia, a hint of awe, and respect that was almost written on their faces.

of course.

There were also admiring and longing glances, all from Lu Yu's former "prodigies of his generation".

Like Wu Sihan, the little enchantress of Shanghai, Xie Yuanfeng, the young master of the capital, and Zuo Qiufeng, the sword-wielding youth of the three northern provinces.

There was also a sense of relief and pride.

Like the saints from the four major martial arts academies, and Lu Yu's cheap aunt, Nangong Yu.

"Lord Lu Yu—"

"I am from the Wu family of Shanghai, Wushan."

At the very front of the hall.

An old ancestor at the demigod realm spoke politely, bringing Lu Yu back to his senses.

"Hello there."

Lu Yu responded softly.

then.

After a slight hesitation, the demigod patriarch of the Wu family clasped his hands in a fist and respectfully asked:

"I just heard from Lord Jiang that you went to the Abyss Realm alone and have now returned."

"What were your observations and experiences like on this trip?"

"Do you have any information about the number and strength of the behemoths within the Abyss? Is our human race currently capable of dealing with them?"

The words fell.

The rest of the people present also turned their gazes toward it.

Jiang Zhenmin, Jiang Xueying, Aunt Fang, and the others all looked at Lu Yu, waiting for his answer.

obviously.

Everyone was curious about what was happening on the other side of the abyss.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu pondered for a moment, wondering where to begin.

Qin Shiyao, who was standing to the side, took the initiative to speak.

"I'm traveling with Lu Yu through this abyss."

"The dangers of the abyss are far beyond our imagination."

"The Abyss World is divided into twelve continents, and each continent has an Ancestral God, who is at least a god-level behemoth!"

"..."

Inside the hall.

Qin Shiyao seemed to have already prepared her explanation, and slowly recounted the information about the Abyss World, word by word.

And as her voice faded away.

The expressions on the faces of everyone present grew increasingly solemn and serious.

especially.

When they heard that the Ancestral Gods and Beasts of the Abyss Realm were at the fourth or fifth level, or even the eighth or ninth level, all the hearts of the people sank to the bottom!

Ancestral God of the Nine Realms!

This is a terrifying existence that the human race on Earth can no longer contend with!

Even if Lord Martial God hadn't been wiped out by Dark Star, he would still be helpless against such an existence!

Not to mention.

From Qin Shiyao's account, people finally understood.

It turns out that what humanity thought was an "Abyss invasion and a cataclysmic beast calamity" was actually just the tip of the iceberg of the Abyss world!

The vast majority of abyssal behemoths are even mired in civil war!

The colossal beasts that have actually set foot on the land of Blue Star are as rare as a drop in the ocean in the entire Abyss Realm!

Upon hearing this...

The crowd, who were initially overjoyed by Lu Yu's return, now wore incredibly somber and grave expressions.

especially--

Those few demigod ancestors at the very front.

When they heard Qin Shiyao recount the situation of the Ancestral God Beast, they exchanged a glance and saw the despair and helplessness in each other's eyes.

Ancestral God Beast, a god-level existence!

Having reached their current demigod level, they now understand even more the true weight of the mere word "god-level" and how terrifying a disaster it is for humanity!

"However, there is also good news."

As Qin Shiyao spoke, she glanced at Lu Yu, then suddenly changed the subject, her tone shifting from heavy to slightly louder.

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

"Could there be any good news?"

"The abyss is so powerful that it has instilled despair in humanity, leaving no hope of survival..."

Some pessimists lamented endlessly.

Qin Shiyao looked at Lu Yu, and seeing that he nodded without objection, she took a deep breath and slowly said, word by word:

"Of the twelve Ancestral Gods of the Abyss, six have now departed, leaving only half."

"Isn't this good news?"

This statement came out.

Everyone present was astonished.

Swah——

Swish-

Everyone stared wide-eyed, feeling as if their brains had completely shut down!

Of the twelve ancestral gods, six have already departed!

What does this mean?

"Lu Yu".

Qin Shiyao called out softly.

The latter, too, shook his head helplessly.

He didn't actually want to pretend like this, but his cousin had already put it that way.

and.

Lu Yu also felt that, facing the incredibly powerful Abyss, the human race on Blue Star needed a strong boost of confidence.

"Here you are."

Lu Yu reached out and waved his hand gently.

hum-

buzz-

Five radiant, divinely powerful ancestral god cores appeared in the sky above the hall.

"oh."

"I used up the other divine core, the one from the Jinling Frost Ancestral God."

Lu Yu casually added a sentence.

And everyone in the hall.

Looking at these five divine cores that symbolize the ancestral god beasts, for a moment, they were all at a loss for words!
