Chapter 236: The Top-Tier C-Rank Ability

~9 min read 1,634 words

"Lu Yu is back! Look quickly, Lu Yu is really back!"

"It's true, it really is Lu Yu!"

"Goodness, I feel like I haven't seen Lu Yu for so many days."

"It must have been at least four or five days."

"It hasn't been that long, just two or three days."

A look of excitement also flashed in Lu Guohao's eyes, but he quickly hid this excitement, walked forward, and said with a smile: "Lu Yu, how have things been in Yongan City these past few days? You didn't run into any danger, did you?"

Lu Yu smiled, shook his head, and asked with concern: "Dad, how is the situation in the Zhai? Is everything still alright?"

"Everything is quite good," Lu Guohao nodded and replied.

Soon, Zhao Shan and the others also gathered around, asking about various conditions in Yongan City all at once.

It was clear that everyone was full of longing for life in the city.

Lu Yu wore a smile and patiently answered everyone's questions one by one, without showing the slightest bit of impatience.

Yongan City was indeed much better than Lu Family Fort, ten or even a hundred times better, yet that feeling of the warmth of home was something Yongan City could not provide.

"Ahem." Just at this moment, an incomparably familiar coughing sound came.

"What are you all gathered here for? Don't you need to train?"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone's bodies jolted, and only then did they reluctantly disperse.

"Uncle Wang." Lu Yu revealed a smile toward Wang Liang in front of him.

"Mm." Wang Liang nodded in acknowledgment, his eyes filled with gratification.

Seeing Lu Yu return safely, the heavy stone that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Moreover, since Lu Yu had appeared here, did that mean that the Awakened surnamed Wang...

Just thinking about it made Wang Liang feel a sense of dread in his heart, and he didn't even dare to ponder it any further.

Because if it were truly as he had vaguely guessed in his heart, that Lu Yu could actually eliminate the Awakened surnamed Wang, then just how astonishingly powerful must Lu Yu's strength be?

This simply exceeded his past understanding.

"Dad, I want to talk to Uncle Wang alone," Lu Yu said with a smile.

"Mm, go ahead." Lu Guohao smiled lightly, understanding the situation; relying on his own life experience, he had vaguely guessed some things.

If he wasn't mistaken, when Wang Liang went out this morning, he must have run into Lu Yu, right?

Behind the seemingly calm and beautiful present, who knew how many hardships and obstacles had been endured.

He took a deep breath, picked up his weapon, and turned to walk back.

Not far away, Qin Hai looked at the backs of Lu Yu and Wang Liang, and secretly made a certain resolution in his heart.

After Lu Yu and Wang Liang entered the room, they closed the door.

Wang Liang asked impatiently: "How is it, Lu Yu, did that guy surnamed Wang come?"

Lu Yu nodded, and then described the ins and outs of the matter in detail.

After listening, the shock in Wang Liang's heart reached its peak.

Protective barrier, teleportation, Spirit attack—any one of these abilities was an extremely terrifying existence to him.

No, if it were him, he probably wouldn't even have had the chance to force out the other party's trump cards.

After all, the six Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artists by Wang Deye's side would be enough to kill him hundreds or thousands of times.

Yet Lu Yu had actually relied on his own strength, one against seven, and wiped them all out; this strength was simply terrifying beyond imagination!

Beyond the shock in his heart, there was more of a sense of gratification.

He had watched Lu Yu grow up step by step; although they were not master and disciple, it was better than being master and disciple.

The thing a master finds most gratifying in the world is seeing their disciple's ability surpass their own.

"Clack." A soft sound broke the brief silence.

"This is?" Wang Liang seemed to wake from his deep thought, looking suspiciously at a small bottle placed on the table in front of him.

"Sorry, Uncle Wang, I was in too much of a rush coming back this time, so I only managed to get this one bottle of Superior Blood Qi Pill. Next time I come back, I will definitely bring you better Pills," Lu Yu said with a smile.

"No need," Wang Liang smiled bitterly and waved his hand, though his eyes were full of gratification, "A Superior Blood Qi Pill is already good enough."

After all, one bottle of Superior Blood Qi Pill cost two hundred thousand, and even back when he was in the Martial Arts Association, he felt a pang of heartache every time he bought one.

After all, for most people, these two hundred thousand were not a small sum.

Of course, he also understood that Lu Yu was now a Pulse Refining Martial Artist, and the Superior Blood Qi Pill really didn't provide much of a boost for him, so he didn't decline again.

"Lu Yu, thank you," Wang Liang said with great gratitude.

"Uncle Wang, let's not say such polite things between us," Lu Yu shook his head and said.

After hearing this, Wang Liang couldn't help but laugh.

However, his brows soon furrowed again, and looking at Lu Yu, he still said: "Lu Yu, I know it might not be the right time to say this, but I feel it is still necessary to remind you."

"Uncle Wang, you want to remind me not to be arrogant and complacent just because I killed an Awakened today, right?"

Wang Liang let out a sigh of relief and said: "I know you aren't that kind of person, but I still have to remind you."

"That Wang Deye is indeed very strong, much more powerful than a Pulse Refining Martial Artist."

"However, compared to the other few C-Class Awakened in Yongan City, he still has a significant gap."

"Uncle Wang, that is one of the reasons I came to find you," Lu Yu nodded, "What are the abilities of those other Awakened?"

Wang Deye's death certainly couldn't be hidden for long, and if he wanted to rescue Ji Bingyu, he would have to fight these people; this was unavoidable. The only difference was whether the other party would come looking for him first, or if he would take the initiative to strike.

Wang Liang took a deep breath and said: "There are four top-tier C-Class Awakened in Yongan City."

"The most powerful among them is the City Lord of Yongan City, Yan Luo, who awakened the Flame Ability."

"Not only can he launch fireballs and fire bullets at extremely high speeds for long-range attacks, but he can also attach flames to his body to form armor, or attach them to his fists and feet; with one punch, he can burn an Advanced Fierce Beast into charcoal."

"I see," Lu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this.

This City Lord of Yongan City sounds like he has quite extraordinary combat power.

If he were also equipped with all sorts of strange and bizarre items, he would be even harder to deal with.

"The second one is Guli; he awakened a Body Ability that allows him to turn his entire body into Metalization. It is said that in this state, even if he were hit by a 75 mm Howitzer, he would remain completely unharmed.

The attacks of those Advanced Fierce Beasts are like scratching an itch to him when his whole body is in Metalization. Furthermore,"

Wang Liang recalled for a moment, "even against Yan Luo, he can hold his own for dozens of rounds without falling behind."

"Looking at it this way, Yan Luo is still stronger," Lu Yu pondered to himself.

"The third one is an Awakened who awakened a Gravity Ability."

"Gravity?" Lu Yu was slightly startled. This Skill sounds a bit obscure, but it definitely cannot be underestimated.

"That's right." Wang Liang took a deep breath and said, "Three years ago, when the Beast Tide broke out, I stood on the city wall and saw with my own eyes as he pointed his right hand at an Advanced Fierce Beast; with one lift and drop of his hand, he crushed that guy into a meat patty. I remember that even Yan Luo had a somewhat wary attitude toward him."

Lu Yu nodded. In that case, the strength of this Gravity Ability Awakened is on par with Yan Luo, who is the City Lord.

And that guy named Guli is slightly inferior in strength compared to these two.

"The fourth one..." Lu Yu hurriedly focused his Spirit and pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

"The fourth one..." Wang Liang frowned tightly, "No one knows what his ability is, and I've never heard anyone else mention it; he is extremely mysterious."

"Oh?" Lu Yu said in surprise, "In the entire Yongan City, there isn't a single person who knows his ability?"

"That's right." Wang Liang nodded, "I even specifically asked the President at the time, and even the President didn't know."

"Even the President doesn't know." Lu Yu was somewhat caught off guard.

Of course, this was information from three years ago; perhaps after these three years, the President already knows.

But one thing is certain: this mysterious guy is able to stand on equal footing with the other three, so his strength naturally cannot be underestimated.

And since no one has known his ability for such a long time, does that mean that most of the people who have seen his ability are already dead?
