Chapter 1317 The Armored Man Suddenly Appears
Zhao Qiankun was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
His brows were furrowed, and he looked into Lu Yun's eyes blankly.
"Several lives were lost in vain..."
"Boy, if you want to gain experience in this world, the first thing is to save your life. Although it is wrong to curry favor with the powerful, it is nothing compared to your life. Do you understand?" Lu Yun said seriously.
Zhao Qiankun lowered his head and silently recited Lu Yun's words.
In the air, the woman in the sedan saw that the people below had quieted down, so she waved and signaled to leave.
The leading female cultivator shouted, "Boy, take them to the outer gate for the next test!"
"Yes!"
The boy responded and bowed towards the air.
Everyone present hurriedly followed the boy and walked up the mountain.
Lu Yun and his companions deliberately lagged behind the team, following behind at a leisurely pace.
"Brother Black Tiger, how did you see through it?" Lu Yun asked curiously.
"Ah? What did you see through?" Hei Hu was stunned.
"Brother Heihu, don't lie to me. I can see it all. You just wanted to bump into that guy on purpose, didn't you?" Lu Yun looked like he knew it.
"What do you mean by deceiving you? Brother Lu, what are you talking about?" Hei Hu looked at Lu Yun in confusion.
"You really don't know?" Lu Yun frowned. "That guy is the girl's apprentice, he definitely wouldn't let you kill him. If you didn't realize this, why did you run into that guy?"
"Really? Why didn't I notice it?" Hei Hu scratched his head and said, "Oh, I remembered it. At that time, I saw that guy's position was just one square away from mine. And looking at his appearance, it was obvious that he had never experienced any major battles. Moreover, after several rounds, he stood there without moving, so I chose him."
"That's it?"
"That's it!"
Lu Yun's face turned red and he turned around to catch up with the team.
I can't continue this conversation. What I thought was not what others thought.
Come to think of it, with Heihu's carefree personality, how could he notice that something was wrong with that boy?
However, Hei Hu's luck was too good. If it weren't for him, who knows how many people would have died before they gave up.
When he thought of those dead monks, Lu Yun's heart tightened again.
If the disciple of that female cultivator was not among these people, wouldn't most of these hundred or so people have died?
Now it seems that I should thank that cowardly guy.
Looking up to the front of the team, I saw the boy who begged for mercy before was still in the crowd.
After giving Hei Hu a wink, Lu Yun quickened his pace and walked to the boy's side.
"what!"
Lu Yun's appearance scared the boy.
"My name is Chen Yun. What's your name?" Lu Yun made up a name.
"I, I...Wen...Wenzhu." The young man said in a trembling voice.
"That was your master just now?"
"Ah? Ah, ah." Wenzhu seemed to still be immersed in the shock just now.
"Relax, I just want to ask you a few questions." Lu Yun whispered, "How many people do you plan to kill in this feast?"
"Ah!" Wenzhu suddenly widened her eyes and shouted in horror: "I don't know! Don't ask me! I don't know!"
Then he took big steps and ran forward hurriedly.
In a moment, he surpassed the boy who was leading the way in front.
The boy wanted to scold him, but when he saw it was him, he gave up.
The three men from Black Tiger came from behind.
"Brother Lu, what did you say to him? Seeing how scared he is is really ridiculous." Hei Hu said disdainfully.
"He said, he doesn't know." Lu Yun replied indifferently.
But he knew in his heart that this person named Wenzhu must know many secrets.
There is no rush now. There should still be a chance to meet him alone. Lu Yun has plenty of ways to make him speak. If that doesn't work, he can get the news by searching his soul, but this Wen Zhu will be useless.
Of course, he would not use this method easily.
The boy brought everyone to a temple.
Everyone exclaimed in surprise as they looked at the magnificent building in front of them.
Even though Lu Yun was knowledgeable and experienced, he was still amazed by the scene here.
"The Holy Mountain is really generous. Even the Underworld City is not as magnificent as this place!" Black Tiger said in surprise.
"Didn't you say that this is a place the first Hades often visited? He wanted to turn this place into a holy place, so he would naturally spare no effort." Lu Yun said.
"That makes sense." Hei Hu nodded slowly: "But, will the young lady be here?"
At this time, there were more than a dozen groups of people standing in the square in front of the temple.
Judging from their expressions, they all seemed to have gone through a tragic experience.
As time passed, more and more people gathered in the square.
Looking around, there were about five hundred people.
"The underworld is really big. There are so many outstanding young people!" Shunying said with emotion.
"Humph! Of course!" Zhao Qiankun regained his previous arrogance. "In the four major territories of the underworld, each territory has countless sects and families, so naturally there will be countless top talents. Just like in our Black Jade City, there are three great families that are on par with the Zhao family."
He pointed at a group of people in the distance and said, "See? That woman with a hairpin is the eldest daughter of the famous Li family in Heiyao City. She is known as the first genius in a thousand years!"
Zhao Qiankun's eyes were full of envy and admiration.
Lu Yun rolled his eyes at him. He had nothing to say to this young man who was just beginning to fall in love.
There are already so many people here, and there are probably many who are called geniuses. What do you count as a mere number one genius in Heiyao City?
After waiting for another half an hour, there were no more people gathering here.
Zhao Qiankun looked around but did not see Zhao Caiying.
"I don't know where my junior sister is."
Seeing his disappointed look, Lu Yun guessed that maybe this guy was worried that his junior sister was dead.
There were many people in the square, so the noise was naturally loud, but what no one noticed was that a circle of people in armor had been standing around the square.
They held spears or swords in their hands, and stood there silently, as if they had always existed.
When Lu Yun saw these people, he was really shocked.
He clearly remembered that these people absolutely did not exist when they arrived here.
"Damn Holy Mountain, what's going to happen now?" Hei Hu also noticed something was wrong and complained through gritted teeth.
These people stood one by one, surrounding the entire huge square. Judging from the number of people, they were almost the same as the number of monks on the scene.
"If a fight breaks out later, Brother Heihu, you'd better keep an eye on this kid!" Lu Yun pointed at Zhao Qiankun with his chin and whispered to Heihu.
"Don't worry, I will keep him safe." Hei Hu nodded vigorously.
Several people were cautious and alert, always paying attention to the movements of these people.
"Here comes the steward!" someone shouted.
Lu Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw Qin Bao, the steward of the Holy Mountain, unexpectedly coming from the direction of the temple.
