Chapter 456: Where Are You All Going?

"How are you able to find me every single time? This is impossible!"

"I told you that you couldn't run, and you can't. No matter how far you hide or how many times you split yourself, it's all the same!"

Once again beheading one of the clones, Shen Yu headed straight for the next location.

The Compass in his hand quickly locked onto the opponent's position, and then the Immobilization Technique, the Mountain and River Map, and other methods were all used together, one after another; the entire process went smoothly.

Previously, Shen Yu relied on the common aura of the old monsters to lock onto their locations, but now the Compass in his hand had been stained with the opponent's aura, so as long as the opponent wasn't completely wiped out, the Compass would always point to him.

Therefore, he could not run; even if he ran to the ends of the earth, he could be easily found.

No matter what, Shen Yu was determined to get the sign-in reward for killing him; if he didn't kill him, this matter wouldn't be over.

In one go, Shen Yu had already beheaded over ten clones, and this number was still growing.

Who would have thought that he would split himself into so many; he wasn't even afraid of a mental breakdown.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yu continued to repeat his actions, spending several consecutive days rushing about in the Northern Region, beheading the people one after another.

After all these times, he didn't know if the opponent had broken down, but Shen Yu himself was starting to doubt life.

Finally, when the last clone dissipated between heaven and earth in extreme unwillingness, and the Compass in his hand no longer locked onto any other position, he set his heart at ease and finally let out a sigh of relief.

Although he was in the middle of a bustling market, Shen Yu tried hard to control himself from shouting out in excitement, but the smile at the corners of his mouth could not be suppressed no matter what.

It was truly not easy; to finish this one off, he had wasted so many days back and forth, but it was finally completely finished.

The hard work of many days was finally about to yield a harvest; rubbing his hands together, Shen Yu said in a low voice, "System, sign in!"

"Sign-in successful, obtained Unity Lock. Two hearts, one lock; never to be separated for a lifetime!"

"Unity Lock?" Looking at the Unity Lock in his hand, Shen Yu was a bit at a loss. He had worked so hard for so long, even wearing his shoes thin, and in the end, he was given this kind of thing.

As the name suggests, the Unity Lock is used on two people, and it must be used on both people at the same time. As long as two people are locked together with the Unity Lock, even strangers will fall in love with each other.

It can be said that once locked by the Unity Lock, both people will involuntarily fall in love with each other, even if one side is rich and powerful, beautiful enough to topple a country, and the other is poor and ugly—ugly enough to make one doubt life.

If this thing were to be taken by someone with impure intentions, who knows how many young women could be harmed.

Uh, of course, there is another situation, which is that a prodigal son falls in love with the other person, washes his hands of his past, no longer harms other young girls, and focuses wholeheartedly on being good to one person.

Shen Yu hadn't used it, so he didn't know the specific effects, but it should be close enough.

Of course, this thing isn't impossible to use between people of the same sex, but it's not really encouraged; it's best not to use it if possible, after all, once you've turned, it's very hard to straighten back out.

Moreover, the Unity Lock locks both parties, and from then on they will never be separated—it's the kind that is truly never separated.

The two cannot be more than a hundred meters apart; if they exceed this distance, under the power of the Unity Lock, one person's figure will inevitably move along with the movement of the other.

Both will always be kept within a hundred meters; this is the truly terrifying aspect of the Unity Lock.

Although this thing doesn't look like much, if used well, it might have great utility.

For a moment, countless ways to use it surged into Shen Yu's mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve upward.

However, he was a decent person, so how could he use it casually? Even if someone provoked him, he wouldn't use it easily, unless they really pushed him to the limit.

Believe it or not, he would throw the other half onto a pig and let you try what it feels like to fall in love with a pig.

【Gu Qi】

"This Dong Yu is finally going to be killed; the Prefect is clear-sighted and has removed a great scourge for our Keyang."

"That's right, we used to think Dong Yu was a good person, but who would have thought that such a person would kill so many people. So, one cannot judge a book by its cover; you cannot easily trust others."

Just as Shen Yu was lost in his thoughts, in front of a notice, after a scholar read the content of the notice, some people who heard it gathered together and whispered about something.

In their words, this Dong Yu who was about to be killed seemed to be heinous and not worth a shred of pity.

"Don't you dare say that about him, he is a good person!"

Just as everyone was accusing this Dong Yu, a young girl suddenly stood out and scolded everyone loudly.

Facing everyone's accusations, she was so anxious that tears were about to fall, but she still refused to give in, desperately defending the other party.

"A good person? He admitted it himself; he killed people, and he killed many people. He is just a cold-blooded butcher!"

"Brother Dong is a good person, you are all wrong! He helped you, yet you return kindness with enmity. Brother Dong shouldn't be killed; you are the ones who deserve to die!"

"You must be Xue Sha, right? Good, I was wondering why you were speaking up for Dong Yu; so it's you, you little harlot. How dare you talk to us like that."

"I know now, everyone look, this is Xue Sha, the Xue Sha who is with Dong Yu every day. Near vermilion, one gets stained red; near ink, one gets stained black. This girl will be just like Dong Yu sooner or later, everyone beat her to death!"

While speaking, a hot-tempered older woman directly started throwing rotten vegetable leaves at the girl. Others followed suit, especially those children who didn't know the severity of their actions and started throwing stones directly.

And just at this moment, a figure appeared, blocking in front of the young girl and intercepting all the stones.

When these stones approached him, they seemed to be fixed in mid-air by some force; such a magical scene left the surrounding people terrified and bewildered.

"Young lady, do not be angry!" Turning his head, Shen Yu revealed a smile he thought was quite kind.

The young girl in front of him seemed to possess some powerful force, which had almost erupted just now in her desperation.

Shen Yu knew very well that if a kind young girl were to turn dark, it wouldn't be something just anyone could handle.

"Young lady, are you alright?"

"Many thanks, young master, I am fine!" She managed to reveal a smile, which counted as gratitude for Shen Yu's act of saving her just now.

With Shen Yu's protection, the surrounding people dared not come forward to provoke them again and could only slink away one by one after muttering under their breath.

Only Shen Yu and the young girl remained on the spot, but regarding the trick Shen Yu had just performed, the girl didn't seem that surprised; instead, she wanted to deliberately keep her distance from Shen Yu, as if she were afraid of something.

"Young lady, rest assured, I have no ill intentions!"

He tried to take two steps toward the girl, while sensing the powerful force hidden within her. This force was not evil; on the contrary, it exuded a sense of uprightness and vastness.

This force had not completely merged with the girl; it was just lurking within her body, protecting her at all times.

Even if Shen Yu hadn't stepped in to help just now, the force within the girl's body would have protected her.

It was just that the girl could not control this force; it was likely that she could release it but not retract it. Once such a terrifying force erupted, it was likely that few people on this entire street would survive.

Therefore, what Shen Yu was actually protecting just now was not the young girl in front of him, but the people around them.

However, in their eyes, this was him defending the young girl, rather than protecting them.

People always like to believe what they see with their own eyes, and it is the same at any time, but is seeing really believing?
