Chapter 734: These Days, There Are Still People Like You

"Kill!"

A team of over a hundred experts charged toward Shen Yu like madmen, though the vast majority quietly hid in the back after running a few steps.

They let those in front go to their deaths, waiting for Shen Yu to become exhausted and have no strength left to fight back, so they could move in to pick up the scraps.

When that time came, they would be able to step on Shen Yu's corpse to achieve fame and success, and status and power would surely follow.

Everyone thought this way, but the one thing they did not expect was that even though Shen Yu clearly looked like he was about to collapse, he just wouldn't fall.

Clearly, every time he exerted force, the flush on his face increased by several degrees, until in the end, it seemed as if it were about to drip blood.

And when he circulated his Inner Energy, his power was obviously chaotic; it was clear to see he was about to reach his limit.

It was precisely this scene that stirred hope in everyone's hearts, so even as people in front kept sacrificing themselves, others followed in their footsteps.

But it was so close, just a little bit more, why wouldn't you just fall?

One person after another fell before him, until in the end, only a dozen or so remained who dared not step forward, their eyes even filled with fear.

The surge in their strength made them feel that even if they were inferior to Shen Yu, it wouldn't be by much. Plus, with their superior numbers, they could wear him down to death.

But what was the result? At the start, Shen Yu's combat power had already been calculated to be less than one-tenth of its peak, and it clearly looked like he could be killed with just a little effort.

Yet even so, they still lost miserably; over a hundred of the top experts in the pugilistic world were killed off in just a few breaths.

Which bastard told them Shen Yu's strength was just like that? Which bastard tricked them into coming here to die? Who!

Is this what you call "just like that"? This, damn it, is a chasm!

He's barely holding on and still this fierce—how are we supposed to fight?

At this point, they already had thoughts of retreating. The ambition that had been burning fiercely was doused as if by a basin of cold water, leaving them chilled to the core.

"Was it that little girl, or that woman?"

With a bitter smile and a shake of his head, Shen Yu could also guess a thing or two about the source of this power within him that was making him restless.

To be precise, this was not poison, yet it was more violent than the most toxic poison in the world; it was some kind of special power similar to a curse.

Like a maggot in rotting bone, once it sticks to you, it is hard to shake off!

That little girl and the woman were indeed ordinary people; even they themselves did not know they had been tampered with, becoming knives in someone else's hands.

And doing it this way was just so Shen Yu wouldn't be able to detect it; ordinary people make it easier for others to lower their guard and fall into the trap.

There is no telling how many more there are like this mother and daughter; to ensure he would fall for it, perhaps those miserable ordinary people along the way had all been planted with something.

Sighing silently, Shen Yu looked up at the remaining dozen or so people.

"Such a young girl, and you all used her!"

"Since you've come, don't leave!"

Seeming to see that these people wanted to run, Shen Yu took a step forward and extended two fingers.

Sharp Sword Qi tore through the sky, shattering the clouds on the horizon, and also shattering these last dozen or so panicked experts.

And at this moment, Shen Yu felt more and more that the power within his body was completely out of control, as if every movement was like being cut by a knife.

"Come out!" He raised his head and scanned his surroundings, but under his Super Perception, he found nothing.

Yet Shen Yu was very clear that there was a pair of eyes here that had been watching him the whole time, just waiting for him to reach his weakest moment.

Although those pugilistic experts were incompetent, they did indeed force him to use his Inner Energy to defend and counterattack time and time again.

And every time he circulated his power, it caused his Inner Energy to become increasingly uncontrollable.

By that final strike, Shen Yu felt the power in his body almost erupt directly within him. If he hadn't suppressed it in time, he probably would have been crippled by now.

What kind of method could it be to make even him so passive right now!

"So this is the man you've taken a fancy to; he really does have some ability!"

"What a pity, what a pity, but this is as far as it goes!"

In the distant mountains and forests, a figure stood quietly on the treetop, her body wrapped in a mysterious power that made it impossible to see her true face.

And her feet seemed to be resting on the branches, yet also seemed to be floating in the air.

Those feet were as crystalline as white jade, as if gathering all the beauty in the world into one.

With a light tap of her feet, the woman's figure vanished from the spot in the next instant. When she appeared again, she had already arrived not far from Shen Yu.

Facing the suddenly appearing figure, Shen Yu was also fiercely startled.

The mere fact that the other party could arrive before him without a sound was enough to prove how terrifying this person was.

Ordinary old monsters wouldn't be this terrifying; one must know that the Spirit Qi Surge had not yet ended, the limits of heaven and earth were set here, and the strength of those old monsters had not broken through the limit.

"Yutong? No, you're not her?"

The person who suddenly appeared made Shen Yu's heart tremble; it was none other than Gu Yutong, who had been in seclusion for a long time.

At the time, the other party had left a letter saying she was going into seclusion, and after that, all news of her in the pugilistic world was completely lost; Shen Yu had also asked people to inquire, but no one knew where she had gone.

This seclusion seemed like a complete disappearance, leaving no trace whatsoever.

He and Gu Yutong had essentially confirmed their relationship at the time, though they had not yet married.

To be honest, to say how deep the feelings were, or how bone-deep the love was, there actually wasn't that much; it was nothing more than affection growing over time.

When people are together for a long time and have more contact, naturally there will be some feelings.

Shen Yu himself considered himself a worldly person, and since she was indeed good-looking and her personality and such were quite good—completely his type—it was natural to have a favorable impression.

The two were mutually attracted, so they naturally came together.

Who could have imagined that after she disappeared for so long, she would appear in such a way.

This aura was clearly Gu Yutong's, yet something was wrong; those eyes were too enchanting and too mature, completely incompatible with the pure aura Gu Yutong possessed.

"You're wrong, I am her!" Looking at Shen Yu, the other party's eyes revealed both appreciation and admiration, and of course, a bit of curiosity.

"You are actually still a virgin?" After looking at Shen Yu for a long while, the other party suddenly covered her mouth and laughed softly. This smile was like ten thousand flowers in full bloom, beautiful beyond compare.

"I didn't expect you men could actually keep yourselves pure until now; it really isn't easy."

Raising an eyebrow, the flush on Shen Yu's face grew even deeper. It's not that I didn't want to, it's that I didn't have the opportunity!

He had been in this World for such a long time and could certainly be considered successful, so why was there no one who simply lusted after his body without any ulterior motives?

Those women in the past who offered themselves were all harboring malicious intentions, and Shen Yu dared not touch them.

It had been so long, yet he had never met anyone who, without any other thoughts, simply lusted after his body. If there had been even one, he would have given in.

Those people too; I only demurred a few times, and you all actually believed me. You misjudged me; I really cannot withstand temptation.

Enough said, talking too much makes it easy to regret not making a move back then!

Walking around Shen Yu twice, Gu Yutong could not help but marvel: "This cultivation is truly incredible; it actually surpasses the current limits of the World. You are worthy of being a heaven-favored child!"

"And you are indeed worthy of being the man I have set my sights on."

"It is just that you really are a heartless man. If someone else had a lover like this who had been in seclusion for many years without any news, they would have searched the whole world for them, yet you alone have remained indifferent."

"Or is it that you only like this delicate and pretty body, simply coveting the appearance of this body?"

"That is not right either, you have not even touched it?"

"Heh!" She covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, though a hint of greed appeared in her eyes, and she lightly licked her lips.

She was becoming more and more greedy for this body!
