Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lu Yu cautiously navigated the desolate and dilapidated ruins, his every step filled with vigilance and caution.
His eyes scanned every corner, searching for any trace of the mysterious man in black.
The place was in disarray, seemingly forgotten by time. Ancient walls teetered on the brink of collapse, and shattered stones littered the ground, creating countless potential hiding places.
Lu Yu recognized the difficulty of finding the man in black amidst such a labyrinthine environment.
A sudden breeze swept through the ruins, carrying an unsettling aura. Lu Yu instantly became alert, his gaze following the direction of the wind. He spotted movement behind a large rock in the distance. His heart pounded as he silently approached…
Only to find a startled wild deer grazing, which bolted away upon discovering Lu Yu.
“It looks like I won’t find him. Time to head back for now,” he muttered. “Prolonging this matter isn’t ideal.”
He spread his dark dragon wings, preparing to take flight.
However, at that moment, the Nightmare Dragon spoke within his mind.
“Master, I detected a peculiar fluctuation. The man’s spirit just wavered, though it remains well-hidden.”
“My guess is that he’s trying to leave this place discreetly, avoiding detection. If we want to find him, we need to act swiftly!”
“Agreed!” Lu Yu nodded curtly. “Guide me. I’ll find him!”
Lu Yu’s figure blurred, working in tandem with the Nightmare Dragon like a phantom. They weaved through the layers of ruins like lightning, resembling a brilliant meteor streaking across the night sky.
Each step pulsed with power and speed, as if he intended to tread upon the broken world itself. Gravel and dust flew in his wake, yet nothing impeded his advance.
Within seconds, Lu Yu arrived at a thicket and spotted the man in black concealed within.
He then transformed into an Explosive Dragon Claw and unleashed a swift attack towards the bushes.
The sharp claw sliced through the man in black’s body, splitting the dense foliage in half and exposing him.
The man whirled around, staring at Lu Yu with disbelief. “How did you find me? Impossible! My hiding place was perfect. You couldn’t have found me. What did you do?”
His voice echoed with disbelief, his face etched with shock. He believed he had hidden flawlessly, making no sound and crawling cautiously. Even the fleeing deer hadn’t noticed him.
Lu Yu approached him. “Resistance is futile. You have nowhere to run. Now, behave yourself. Defy me, and you’ll face a miserable fate.”
“You dare? Do you even know my power?” The man in black asked grudgingly.
“Your strength is irrelevant. I merely need to remind you that I’ve slain your Wyvern. Face reality. You’re no match for me.”
Lu Yu’s voice was cold and unwavering.
The man in black rose slowly, a look of helplessness washing over him. He stared intently at Lu Yu, his eyes filled with deep-seated resentment and hatred, seemingly harboring countless grievances with no outlet.
He silently emerged from his hiding place, each step feeling unusually heavy. Finally, he stood before Lu Yu, face to face.
The distance between the two was minimal, yet it felt like an insurmountable chasm.
The man in black stared at Lu Yu with growing defiance, but he remained still, his true intentions shrouded in mystery.
“So, will you follow me back willingly, or do you want me to force you? The choice is yours.”
“I acknowledge your strength. I witnessed your subjugation of the three Red Dragons. You’re far from ordinary, and I have no desire to fight you.”
“However, I can return with you. But you’ll soon regret it and take the initiative to release me.”
He spoke with unwavering confidence, as if victory was already his. Lu Yu, however, remained unfazed, uninterested in his veiled threats.
“So, you agree to come back with me?”
Lu Yu confirmed.
“Absolutely. We can leave now or whenever you’re ready. I’m at your disposal.”
He offered a smile.
“Alright, then let’s go. But tell me, what kind of power did you use to inflict such damage on the dragons?”
The man in black turned his gaze to the black staff in his hand, emitting a faint glow. It was exquisitely crafted, adorned with intricate, enigmatic runes and patterns, seemingly harboring endless secrets.
These runes flickered with a faint spiritual light, resembling stars in the night sky. The staff’s mysterious aura, like an invisible force, lingered in the air.
Even from a distance, Lu Yu could sense the potent energy fluctuations emanating from it. They carried a pressure that sent shivers down one’s spine, as if a gentle wave could trigger earth-shattering changes.
Focusing on the staff’s tip, the man in black revealed a fist-sized gem embedded within. The crystal-clear gem appeared to hold a burning ball of fire, occasionally shooting out dazzling rays of light.
“I stumbled upon this gem within these ruins, granting my staff ancient power.”
“This amplification stems from a distant era. The gemstones left here remained undiscovered for ages. I suppose I’m fortunate to have unearthed them now.”
Lu Yu strode forward. “Let’s return. I have no time for further delays.”
“No problem. We can depart immediately.”
Swoosh!
A flash of light materialized, revealing a sleek, flying dragon.
“The Sky-Piercing Dragon boasts incredible speed. Once aboard, we’ll be back in Jasper City in no time.”
Lu Yu was surprised by the man’s eagerness to return, even offering his mount.
“It seems you’re quite confident. Regardless, I’ll be taking you back now.”
