Chapter 210: Keeping a Low Profile

Wang Shu once said that there are several Transformation Energy Martial Artists in Yongan City who have been subjected to Mental Control, willing to go through fire and water for the Awakened, and even willing to sacrifice their own lives.

Two or three years have passed, and those Transformation Energy Martial Artists, relying on the resources provided by the Awakened, have successfully grown into Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artists.

And the one named Chen Yu before him is presumably one of them.

Furthermore, it can be inferred from this that even if this guy is in the Pulse Refining Realm, he is only at the Pulse Refining Initial Stage, and even if he himself does not use a Secret Technique, he can likely kill him with a single slash of his Dagger.

"I will give you one last chance." Chen Yu looked at Lu Yu again, "Are you willing to join the Merchant Guild?"

"Chen Yu!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yong was instantly furious, "What do you want to do? Do you think this is what kind of place? This is the Martial Arts Association, not your Merchant Guild's territory! Do you dare to try making a move here?"

"Martial Arts Association?" Chen Yu sneered disdainfully, "What kind of lousy Martial Arts Association? Let me tell you, this is Yongan City! Never mind you, even if your President were here, what could he do?"

"You!" Liu Yong was so angry that he clenched his fists tightly.

Chen Yu was right; even if the President were present, if he insisted on making a move, indeed no one could stop him.

Killing intent surged in Lu Yu's heart, but his reason told him that unless it was an absolute last resort, he must not act rashly.

Because the other party surely had many people who knew about their arrival this time, and there might be countless eyes watching from the surroundings.

If he killed these people here, I am afraid that within an hour, the news would reach the ears of those Awakened.

For the sake of safety, he would only be able to leave here then and see if he could go to the Martial Arts Branch in another city.

But if that were the case, the other people in the Association, if they did not follow him, might be implicated by him.

However, having said that, if the other party really dared to make a move here, he would have no choice but to fight back and kill this guy named Chen Yu, as well as Sheng Yuan and his gang, right here, which could also be considered avenging Wang Shu.

"Is that so?" Just as the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, a voice suddenly rang out.

"President!"

"President!"

"It's the President!"

Hearing this voice, Liu Yong and the others instantly showed expressions of excitement.

Lu Yu also looked in the direction of the voice; the person who had arrived was none other than Song Tian.

The expressions of Chen Yu and the others instantly became very ugly.

Song Tian walked over unhurriedly; even when facing the Pulse Refining Realm Chen Yu, he did not fall behind in momentum at all.

"Chen Yu, I didn't expect that after only a few years of not seeing you, you have actually become like this." Song Tian walked in front of Chen Yu and looked him in the eye, "I remember that before you went to the City Lord's Mansion, you were not a person like this."

Chen Yu frowned and said impatiently, "Those are all old, stale matters; why bring them up?"

"Fine, then let's talk about the present." Song Tian nodded, "I heard that you want to touch the people of my Branch? I'm sorry, but as long as I am here today, don't even think about touching any single person from our Branch."

"Is that so?" Chen Yu's voice carried a trace of chill.

The two stood needle-against-wheat, and for a moment, it was as if time had frozen.

Liu Yong and the others could not help but break into a cold sweat for Song Tian. If a fight really broke out, the President would probably not be able to last even one round in Chen Yu's hands!

Sheng Yuan and the others were also complaining bitterly in their hearts. Killing a martial artist from a Branch might not be a big deal.

But Song Tian is different; he is the President of the Branch!

If they killed him, that would be equivalent to openly provoking the entire Nanshan District Martial Arts Association; how could the other side swallow this insult?

By then, all of them, including Chen Yu, would definitely be pushed out to take the blame.

"President, let me handle it; they are here for me." Lu Yu walked forward.

If Song Tian met with misfortune because of him, he would never have peace of mind for the rest of his life. If he is discovered, then so be it; at worst, he will meet the challenge as it comes.

"I am the President." Song Tian said without looking back.

"Enough." Chen Yu frowned deeply, glanced at Lu Yu, and said, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it yourself, so don't blame me. Remember, today is just a warning for you; next time, you won't have such good luck."

After saying this, he took a deep look at Lu Yu, his gaze as if he wanted to firmly carve Lu Yu's appearance into his mind, and only then did he turn and leave with the others.

Lu Yu watched their backs, and while silently putting away his Dagger, he sneered inwardly.

My luck is good? You should be glad that you found me in public; otherwise, you would have already become a cold corpse.

……

Seeing Chen Yu and his party moving further and further away, the Branch martial artists present all felt as if a heavy stone had been lifted from their hearts, and they all let out long sighs of relief.

Song Tian was no exception; on the surface, he had just been standing toe-to-toe with Chen Yu without yielding an inch, but in reality, the clothes on his back were already soaked with sweat.

"President, thank you so much." Lu Yu said with full gratitude.

Although he himself did not fear Chen Yu and his gang, if he had really killed them on the spot, the subsequent arrangements would inevitably have been completely disrupted.

Song Tian waved his hand lightly, turned around, and said, "There is nothing worth thanking for. You are a martial artist of our Association, and this is the Association's territory; if I cannot even guarantee your safety, who would be willing to join our Branch in the future?"

The people present looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"That said, little brother Lu, in the next few days, you should still try to keep a low profile; it is best to just stay in the Association and not run outside."

Song Tian sighed slightly and continued, "You also heard what that guy said when he left; his visit this time was just a warning.

If nothing unexpected happens, from now on, your every move will be closely monitored by them; if you still go out of the city to hunt like you did today, that guy will definitely come looking for you personally.

In Yongan City, he might not dare to do anything to you, but once you are outside the city, even if I am by your side, I am afraid it will be difficult to protect you, do you understand what I mean?"

In fact, it was not just Lu Yu; in the next few days, it would be best for the other martial artists in the Branch who have reached the Entering Energy stage not to go out easily. Even Song Tian himself would have to act cautiously.

"I understand, President; I will keep a low profile for the next two days." Lu Yu quickly replied.

"Hmm." A smile finally appeared on Song Tian's face, "Don't worry, I will report this matter to the headquarters later; once the heat dies down in a few days, it should be fine."

Hearing this, Lu Yu also smiled along.

The two chatted for a while longer, then walked toward the Base.

As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, several gazes shot straight toward them from the surroundings.
