CHAPTER 344: CHAPTER 237: DIVERTING TROUBLE EASTWARD
Lu Yu watched as the figures of the few people disappeared into the building and walked toward the wall. Halfway there, he saw Hong Chu’s figure.
After a moment of hesitation, Lu Yu followed Hong Chu. He wanted to know exactly how many people’s memories had been altered.
If Hong Chu’s memory had been modified, then he was likely safe, considering Hong Chu was a formidable expert at the eighth level of the Sea of Qi realm. If his memory had been altered, then surely others’ memories had been as well.
Lu Yu walked into the alley behind Hong Chu. Just as he was about to approach and greet him, to test if he still remembered him, Hong Chu quickened his pace.
After a few turns, Lu Yu realized he had lost track of him.
Standing there, Lu Yu looked at the three paths before him, speechless. He used to be the one ditching others, and for once, someone else had ditched him.
It seemed Hong Chu had discovered his presence, but Lu Yu didn’t know why the other wanted to shake him off.
With no other options, Lu Yu released his senses to locate Hong Chu.
Using perception in the city was unsafe. It could inadvertently encounter untouchable things, especially risking counterattacks from strong individuals, who might take it as provocation.
As his awareness spread, Lu Yu didn’t find Hong Chu but discovered someone more interesting.
Three walls away from Lu Yu was a severely injured man leaning against the wall. He appeared to be the person Lu Yu saw being pursued earlier.
Lu Yu had no interest in him or why he was being chased, nor did he want to meddle in the business of others; he only wanted to find Hong Chu.
Unexpectedly, Song Huaidong, upon sensing Lu Yu’s probing, thought it was from the pursuer and decisively got up to flee, simultaneously unleashing his spiritual power to shatter the detection in the area to facilitate his escape.
Boom! Lu Yu’s awareness was shattered by Song Huaidong’s spiritual power, instantly making his head feel as if hit by a sledgehammer, creating turbulence in his mind.
"Ugh~" Lu Yu clutched his head and rubbed his temples, which throbbed continuously.
The sensation of his awareness being torn apart was unpleasant. He felt a large void in his mind, but as his spiritual power recovered, the void left by the shattered awareness was filled again.
Lu Yu opened his eyes, revealing a cold light. Originally, he had no intention of interfering with the other’s matters, but being attacked like this, if he didn’t retaliate, would he still be Lu Yu?
His perception formed into a long line and swept outward. Lu Yu saw the images within the sweeping range. The awareness, like a radar, would only reveal scenes over the areas it scanned. This way, he was not afraid of his perception being torn apart again.
When the other felt shrouded by someone else’s awareness, Lu Yu’s scan had already passed over him. The other couldn’t possibly follow a fleeting perception to teach Lu Yu a lesson, could he?
He could only pretend it never happened; after all, it was just a fleeting moment, one so short it wouldn’t cause any impact or expose any secrets.
By using the radar-like pointer of his perception, he expanded the coverage and decreased the likelihood of a counterattack, finding that Song Huaidong had already fled quite a distance.
Bang~ Lu Yu suddenly leapt up and used the Heaven’s Edge Ruler Step in mid-air, appearing in an instant before Song Huaidong, who was kilometers away.
Whoosh~ Song Huaidong braked, his shoes skidding on the ground, kicking up dust.
He cautiously looked at the Martial Cultivator who had suddenly appeared before him.
The rainbow light around Lu Yu disappeared, and his face appeared in Song Huaidong’s eyes, leaving him somewhat surprised to see it was Lu Yu.
How did he catch up? Song Huaidong was filled with confusion.
Lu Yu rubbed his hands, walking toward Song Huaidong. There was nothing to say between them. Lu Yu threw a punch at him, not using any martial skills, just wanting to vent the frustration of his shattered awareness.
Whoosh~ The air in the alley was carried away by Lu Yu’s punch, rushing violently toward Song Huaidong. Song Huaidong’s expression changed immediately; the other intended to strike him dead with one hit, using such a powerful attack without a word.
Boom! A disc composed of six hiltless long swords appeared around Song Huaidong, negating the punch’s force, leaving him unharmed.
Currently being pursued, he couldn’t afford delays. Thinking of this, Song Huaidong decisively used the "Ten Thousand Wheels of Destruction."
In the sky, tens of thousands of Wheels of Destruction appeared, tilting toward Lu Yu. The high-speed spinning Wheels of Destruction, with the power to annihilate everything, rained down on Lu Yu. In an instant, thousands of Wheels of Destruction landed on him.
Feeling the power of the tens of thousands of Wheels of Destruction in the sky, Lu Yu didn’t hesitate at all and directly released the Seven-Colored Glazed Tower.
The more than two-meter-tall Seven-Colored Glazed Tower completely enveloped Lu Yu. The tens of thousands of Wheels of Destruction continuously cut at the Seven-Colored Glazed Tower, releasing vibrant spiritual lights, with the entire sky above the alley obscured by the tower’s glow.
When the Ten Thousand Wheels of Destruction ended, the ground was left in utter ruin, the surrounding buildings collapsed, yet only the area under Lu Yu’s feet remained untouched.
The Seven-Colored Glazed Tower’s formidable defensive power, as long as the spiritual power was sufficient, was virtually unbreakable by anyone at the Sea of Qi realm.
The flying dust was dispersed by spiritual power. Song Huaidong looked at the Seven-Colored Glazed Tower before him, eyes wide in disbelief.
He didn’t expect this person named "Lu Yu" to not only possess a weapon suspected to be Ninth Grade but also the extremely rare, legendary top-grade Spiritual Treasure, the Seven-Colored Glazed Tower.
