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

"parents……"

The entrance to the seclusion room.

Lu Yu heard these two sentences from Nangong Yu.

For a moment, I was in a daze.

Yes.

parents.

Even though Lu Yu is now the leader and hope of countless humans, he is still a human being. He didn't spring from a stone; he also has parents.

Throughout the entire story, Lu Yu knew very little about his parents.

Whether it was Aunt Fang or the former Aunt Nangong, they were both very secretive about this information and didn't say much.

The college entrance exam three years ago was fraught with difficulty.

Nangong Yu once said, "When Lu Yu has the strength to fight against the demigods of the Dark Court, I will reveal some information about his parents."

Lu Yu had possessed demigod-level strength for a long time.

Unfortunately, he broke through to the King level and remained in the depths of the starry sky for three years.

After his return, one crisis after another arose: the Battle of Feather City, the Battle of Jinling, the Journey to the Abyss, and the Battle of Dark Star. Lu Yu was almost constantly on the move.

It was only on the eve of the Battle of the Abyss that Nangong Yu finally found time to approach Lu Yu and bring this message, which was three years overdue.

"Xiaoyu."

"I should have told you sooner, but I've been putting it off for so long..."

"You won't blame your aunt, will you?"

Seeing Lu Yu's stunned expression, Nangong Yu's red lips and wavy hair seemed to falter, and she lowered her voice slightly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu snapped out of his reverie and shook his head.

No, no.

"Auntie, don't overthink it, I just..."

"I feel a little dazed, after all, I have no memories of my parents since I was very young."

"Hearing you bring this up suddenly, I don't know how to describe my feelings right now."

The words fell.

"well--"

Nangong Yu let out a long sigh.

"Your parents' situation... is a bit complicated and can't be explained in just a few words. Let's go inside and I'll tell you slowly."

"Don't worry."

"Auntie will tell you everything she knows; she won't hide anything from you."

talking.

Nangong Yu, without any hesitation, took a step forward with her long legs wrapped in harp stockings and came directly in front of Lu Yu.

Then he reached out and pulled Lu Yu into his arms, and pushed open the door to the secluded training room.

In a short time.

As Lu Yu inhaled the soft, sweet fragrance emanating from the tip of his nose, the dazed feeling that had just arisen truly subsided considerably.

Aunt Nangong, you've put so much thought into this!

……

……

The seclusion room was relatively simply furnished.

Simple, yet not rudimentary.

After all, this was a secluded training room specially arranged for Lu Yu by Jiang Zhenmin and others.

Although everything was kept simple according to Lu Yu's request, it seemed that everything that should have been there and shouldn't have been there was actually there.

Sitting on a meditation cushion, brewing tea on a heated stove, the fragrance of sandalwood, and... that strikingly large two-meter bed.

Lu Yu could understand everything else.

Lu Yu still hasn't figured out the purpose of this two-meter-long bed.

When people are in seclusion for cultivation, they sit on a futon. Who would cultivate while lying in bed sleeping?

Lu Yu even once thought...

Did Lu Yu's behavior of sleeping in the provincial examination secret realm leave a similar impression on Jiang Zhenmin and others, to the point that they really thought that Lu Yu's usual cultivation state was like lying down and sleeping?

"Xiaoyu, come here."

"Come here, Auntie will tell you slowly."

When Nangong Yu entered the room and saw the large bed, he was slightly taken aback.

But then...

Recalling the scene from moments before when he saw Jiang Xueying blush and run away shyly, he suddenly understood everything.

A blush first appeared on her delicate and spirited face, but then a sense of pride as an aunt was revealed.

The baby who was once in swaddling clothes has now grown up into a grown man.

Just like the little sister who used to follow Lu Yu's parents, she has now become a so-called demigod ancestor.

Yes.

With the blessing of the Blue Star Origin at the end of the Dark Star War, Nangong Yu, who had been stuck at the peak of the Saint level for many years, broke through the bottleneck and stepped into the realm of demigod.

Now, she is a genuine demigod, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a "god".

Lu Yu hesitated slightly upon hearing Nangong Yu's greeting.

after all.

At this moment, Nangong Yu was sitting cross-legged on the two-meter-wide bed.

Her long, slender legs, encased in harp stockings, were slightly parted, exuding a captivating charm.

especially.

This scene, paired with her fiery red lips and wavy hair, is undeniably striking.

call--

Huhu——

Lu Yu took a few deep breaths to shake off the random thoughts that instinctively rose in his mind.

Under Nangong Yu's slightly urging gaze, Lu Yu did as she said and sat on the edge of the large bed.

"Auntie, please speak, I'm listening."

Lu Yu spoke softly.

When Nangong Yu heard the address "you," her eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she didn't dwell on it too much.

She also knew that Lu Yu's time was precious, and that they should get to the point as soon as possible.

Nangong Yu paused for a moment, seemingly organizing his thoughts.

Not long ago.

As a soft sigh, filled with memories, echoed in the room, Nangong Yu's voice followed, softly recounting:

I do not know your parents' names.

"Or rather, it's not just me; in fact, no one knows, including Lord Martial God, who probably can't answer that either."

This Aunt Nangong remained silent until she spoke.

He opened with a bombshell.

The first two sentences left Lu Yu completely bewildered.

"You don't even know their names?"

Lu Yu found it hard to believe.

"Yes, I don't know."

Nangong Yu pursed her red lips and nodded her chin.

She sighed softly, then said:

"I know it must be hard for you to understand and hard to imagine."

But that's just how it is.

"Your parents..."

"They seem less like native humans of Earth and more like beings that fell from the sky."

"They first appeared 25 years ago."

"And the occasion for their appearance was a meeting where all the demigods of the Dark Court were gathered!"

Speaking of it.

A look of disbelief and reminiscence crossed Nangong Yu's face.

She didn't witness these things herself; she heard about them from others later.

After all, at that time, she was just a little girl who had just entered the King level.

"At the time, this was considered big news within the Dark Court!"

"A mysterious couple, who are your parents, immediately displayed a demigod-level realm upon their arrival."

"and--"

Speaking of it.

Nangong Yu drew out the last syllable.

She blinked her bright eyes and looked at Lu Yu.

"Guess what they did after they showed up?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu was slightly taken aback, and blurted out instinctively:

"You beat up those Dark Court demigods?"

This statement came out.

Nangong Yu, however, was stunned.

Her red lips parted slightly, her face showing both surprise and delight.

Finally, everything culminated in a bright, knowing smile.

"Hahaha--"

Nangong Yu laughed without regard for his image, causing the two majestic mountains to undulate in response.

"Yes, yes!"

"You guessed it right away; no wonder you're a descendant of them!"

Nangong Yu sighed.

Lu Yu's eyes widened.

what?

for real?

He just said it offhand, made it up, without thinking at all.

Surprisingly, they actually guessed right?

"Hahaha--"

Nangong Yu smiled and continued:

"Back then, it was supposed to be a meeting where the rankings of the Dark Court's demigods were decided."

"This is a rule that the Dark Court has had since its establishment. Every year, the demigods compete against each other, and their ranking is determined by their strength."

"Apart from the God of War and the Prophet at the very front, the positions from the third to the twelfth in the sequence also change almost every year."

"And your parents showed up there for this reason."

"The two of them showed no mercy, beating up every single one of them, starting from Sequence Twelve and going all the way to Sequence Three!"

"If the God of War hadn't shown up later, the two of them were planning to fight the Prophet and the God of War..."

At this point, Nangong Yu smacked his lips.

On her strikingly handsome face, a rare look of longing appeared.

obviously.

Nangong Yu is the type who admires strength.

The fact that Lu Yu's parents had punched a group of demigods back then had indeed struck her heart hard.

"Well……"

Lu Yu was also somewhat speechless as he listened to Nangong Yu's story.

He truly had no idea that his parents, whom he knew so little about, had once been so...unique.

Why?

Why would they do that?

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yu finally asked the question that had been bothering him.

"It's very simple."

"For the purpose of ranking."

"After that battle, or after that beating, your parents deservedly and directly became demigods of Sequence Three and Sequence Four."

At this point, Nangong Yu paused again, then continued in a somewhat uncertain tone:

"They seem to be doing something very important, which requires the identity of a Dark Court sequence demigod."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu grasped the key point.

"Is it something important?"

Nangong Yu nodded.

"Yes, it's very important."

"This is not just my unfounded conjecture; at that time, almost everyone in the Dark Court had similar thoughts."

"after all……"

"From the moment your parents were born, everything they did was quite different from what ordinary people do."

Lu Yu interrupted:

"So what did they all do?"

Nangong Yu frowned, thought carefully for a moment, and then recounted the events one by one based on his memories:

"Um……"

"First, I beat up a group of demigods and got a sequence identity."

"Then, it seems they went to find the God of War again, but nobody knows what they said to him."

"Oh, right!"

Speaking of it.

Nangong Yu suddenly widened his eyes, his expression showing a hint of shock and realization.

"It was shortly after that that the God of War left Earth for a mysterious abyss, seeking an opportunity to break through to godhood!"

"It was probably that trip to the abyss that allowed the God of War to see the future, and it also led him to forbid all humans, including himself, from breaking through to the god level!"

The reason Nangong Yu said this at this moment was because he was reminded of the future scenes he saw during the Dark Star War not long ago, which were projected by the God of War.

Lu Yu was stunned when he heard this.

That sounds...

Why does it seem like the Martial God's journey to the abyss, including seeing the future, wasn't an accident, but rather something that was arranged?

And the one who arranged all of this was his mysterious parents?

Thinking about this...

Lu Yu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and got goosebumps.

"Gurgle—"

Nangong Yu was clearly thinking the same thing as Lu Yu at this moment.

She swallowed hard, a look of bewilderment in her eyes.

"And then, what else did they do?"

It wasn't until Lu Yu pressed her for answers again that Aunt Nangong finally came to her senses.

She took a deep breath, temporarily setting aside the connection, and continued slowly, based on her memory:

"Then……"

"According to the rules of the Dark Court, every demigod of any sequence needs to cultivate a group of subordinates of their own."

"That's when your parents took a liking to me and took me in, and I became their little follower."

"They guided me in my training, took me down into the abyss, helped me fight giant beasts, and even taught me about spaceships and warships..."

"That time was wonderful, and I often think back on it over the years."

As Nangong Yu spoke, her eyes sparkled like stars, as if she had transformed back into that innocent and carefree little girl.

"oh--"

As he spoke, Nangong Yu suddenly exclaimed softly and slapped his thigh.

Her long legs, wrapped in nylon stockings, undulated with a rhythmic ripple.

"When they were teaching me about spaceships, they piloted them and took me to many places!"

"Many abysses, many secret realms, it seems your parents have been searching for something very important, but they have never found it."

talking.

She added one more sentence.

"They have special means to enter many secluded and secret realms."

"We've been inside the Crimson Flame Sect's secret realm before, without disturbing its seal."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's pupils contracted again.

The secret realm of the Red Flame Sect?

Old Man Yan is inside!

If outsiders enter, others may not know, but was Old Man Yan unaware of it either?

If Old Man Ke Yan knew the truth, he shouldn't have failed to notice the connection between his own aura and that of his parents.

But by the way!

The remnant soul left behind by Old Man Yan did not mention this matter.

instead.

He did notice the aura of a martial god on the professional cleansing stone he was carrying at the time.

"Are you sure you went to the Crimson Flame Sect's secret realm?"

Lu Yu repeatedly pressed for confirmation.

"Absolutely certain!"

"Because your parents' reaction when they entered that secret place seemed rather unusual, I remember it quite vividly."

"That reaction, how should I put it... it was a mix of excitement and regret, it was complicated and hard to describe, but they didn't have that kind of reaction in other secret realms either."

"and--"

"They searched the other secret realms carefully, leaving no corner unchecked, but we only stayed briefly in the Crimson Flame Sect secret realm and left without any search."

Based on his recollections, Nangong Yu meticulously reconstructed the specific details of the time, word by word.

As Lu Yu listened, he increasingly felt that many things seemed to be subtly connected...

"and then?"

"What else did they do?"

"And why did it disappear?"

"And what about what you said three years ago, Auntie, that no matter how bad the comments about them are, you shouldn't believe them? What happened then?"

I heard these messages from Aunt Nangong.

Lu Yu's understanding of his parents only grew stronger; instead of becoming clearer, his doubts and curiosity deepened.
