Chapter 317: People Must Always Look Forward

"Wake up, wake up." Lu Yu walked to Sheng Yuan's side and gave him a light kick with his foot.

Sheng Yuan slowly drifted awake, and the first thing he saw was Lu Yu.

"Hm?" His brows furrowed tightly, and he wondered to himself, before he passed out, wasn't there a fierce-looking man with a square face in front of him?

How had he been replaced by a robust young man of seventeen or eighteen?

"What, can't recognize me?" The corners of Lu Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and he deliberately used the voice of the previous man to ask.

"You, you!" Sheng Yuan's face was full of terror, as if he had seen a ghost.

"You, you are that person from before? Who exactly are you!"

He truly could not understand how he had offended this person; not only had he killed the people around him, but he had also beaten him into a state of serious injury and brought him here. What on earth did this guy want to do?

"You don't remember?" Lu Yu smiled, then put on the mask.

"Boom!" It was as if a thunderclap had sounded in Sheng Yuan's mind.

He understood in an instant; everything was clear.

So, this young man was the mysterious masked person he had been talking about.

The key was that this young man was actually already a Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artist. If word of such a young Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artist got out, surely no one would dare believe it, right?

"You brought me here just to humiliate me?" Sheng Yuan smiled bitterly, mocking himself.

At this point, he no longer held any delusions of survival.

"If that's the case, then I congratulate you; you've achieved your goal. If you're a man, just give me a quick death."

Lu Yu turned his head to look at Wang Liang.

Only then did Sheng Yuan notice that there was another person in the room. It was a man in his thirties or forties, standing in a strange posture, as if one leg were lame.

"You?" He frowned, feeling that this person looked inexplicably familiar, yet he just couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"Can't remember?" Wang Liang sighed helplessly. "It's no wonder; you've harmed so many people, how could you possibly remember everyone?"

Upon hearing this, Sheng Yuan's face showed a hint of embarrassment, but he still stubbornly said, "Hmph, since I've fallen into your hands, do whatever you want to me."

"Xiao Yu, give me the blade." Lu Yu handed the blade over.

Seeing this, Sheng Yuan was so scared that he hurriedly shrank his neck and scrambled backward using both hands and feet.

A flash of blade light streaked by.

Sheng Yuan clutched his neck, collapsed into a pool of blood, and soon suffocated to death.

Wang Liang shook the blood off the blade, sheathed it, and handed it back to Lu Yu.

"Xiao Yu, thank you."

"Uncle Wang, why be so polite with me?" Lu Yu took the blade and asked, "Uncle Wang, do you think killing him just like this was letting him off too easily?"

"It's all in the past now." Wang Liang shook his head, looked out the window, and said slowly, "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come here and met everyone, would I? Besides, I've already killed him with my own hands and avenged this deep blood feud. People, after all, must always look forward."

After speaking, he gave Lu Yu a relieved smile.

"Right." Lu Yu nodded in agreement. He had to say, Uncle Wang was truly open-minded and free-spirited.

"By the way, Uncle Wang, I brought you something this time when I came back."

"There's more?" Wang Liang opened his mouth in surprise. To be honest, being able to kill his enemy with his own hands was already enough to satisfy him.

"It's this." Lu Yu took out a Space Ring; it was the special reward he had obtained from the Association. This Space Ring only had a space of one cubic meter, so it wasn't of much use to him.

"This is!" Wang Liang's breathing suddenly became rapid.

"A Space Item?"

"Mm." Lu Yu nodded with a smile. "There are also two things inside that I prepared for you."

"There's more?" Wang Liang was completely stunned; could there be other surprises?

Not to mention anything else, a rare item like a Space Item was something he only dared to fantasize about in his dreams back in Yongan City.

Because this thing wasn't something you could buy just by having money, and the key was that it would be very difficult for him to come up with that much money all at once to purchase one.

Yet now, Lu Yu was actually giving him one directly, and there were surprises inside?

"Xiao Yu, I..." His lips trembled slightly, and he was so moved he didn't know what to say.

"Uncle Wang, do you think I would take back something I've given away?" Lu Yu asked with a smile.

"..." Wang Liang was moved to tears and could only reach out to take the Space Ring.

The moment his finger touched the ring, an image appeared before his eyes: a one-cubic-meter white space, containing nothing but two bottles of pills.

With a thought, the two bottles of pills appeared in his hand.

"This?" Wang Liang looked at Lu Yu in complete shock.

Lu Yu couldn't help but laugh; Uncle Wang was learning quite quickly.

"Uncle Wang, that's how you use a Space Ring. You can try putting those two bottles of pills back in."

"I'll try." Wang Liang nodded, and with a thought, sure enough, the two bottles of pills in his hand returned to the Space Ring.

"So this is a Space Item." He took a deep breath, unable to help but marvel at this magical object.

Lu Yu watched Wang Liang's reaction and couldn't help but smile; after all, when he first came into contact with such things, he was just like Uncle Wang, feeling incredibly amazed.

"By the way, Xiao Yu, what are these two bottles of pills?" Wang Liang suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked.

"Top-grade Blood Qi Pills." Lu Yu answered without hesitation.

"Top-grade Blood Qi Pills? Top-grade Blood Qi Pills!!!" Wang Liang's voice suddenly rose an octave, and his eyes were almost popping out.

"That's right, Uncle Wang, you heard me correctly, and I didn't misspeak; these two bottles are indeed Top-grade Blood Qi Pills. If you don't believe me, you can open one and eat it to test the effect." Lu Yu said with a smile, which could be considered fulfilling his original promise.

Half-doubting, Wang Liang opened a bottle of pills, poured one out, held it under his nose to smell it, and was immediately greatly astonished.

The scent of this pill was several times more potent than a Superior Blood Qi Pill.

Could it be that this really was a Top-grade Blood Qi Pill?

If it really was a Top-grade Blood Qi Pill, one would be enough, but what was laid out before him were two bottles—a full twenty Top-grade Blood Qi Pills! How much would this be worth? I'm afraid even if you had the money, you couldn't buy them, right?

"Little Yu, where did you get these Top-grade Blood Qi Pills?" He swallowed hard, a bit afraid to eat them, not because he was worried about Poison, but because he felt this gift was too precious.

"Wang Shu, don't overthink it. Top-grade Blood Qi Pills might be rare for others to see, but for me, they aren't difficult to refine."

"Re, refine? You, you are an Alchemist?" Wang Liang was completely shocked.

"Yes, I learned some alchemy skills at the Association," Lu Yu said with a smile.

Wang Liang was so moved he couldn't speak, tears shimmering in his eyes. He had known that the vast outside world was where Lu Yu could display his talents; letting him stay in this small Zhai was simply burying his future.

"Wang Shu, have a taste," Lu Yu urged with a smile.

"Mm." Wang Liang put the Top-grade Blood Qi Pill in his hand into his mouth and swallowed it.

In an instant, the blood Qi within his body boiled like a surging tide, rushing on without end.

"This!" Wang Liang was both surprised and delighted.

The medicinal power of this Top-grade Blood Qi Pill was several times stronger than a High Grade Blood Qi Pill, and it was extremely pure!

He had a premonition that if he took both bottles of Top-grade Blood Qi Pills, he would very likely break through to the Transformation Realm! No, perhaps one bottle would be enough.

"Little Yu, you..." Two lines of hot tears streamed from Wang Liang's eyes.

It is said that a man does not shed tears easily, only because he has not reached the point of sorrow, but at this moment, he was shedding tears because he was moved.

In the past, he helped Lu Yu train, actually just so he could survive himself; he never expected that Lu Yu would repay him with such heavy kindness, how could he not be moved to the extreme.
