~7 min read 1,265 words

"No need, little Xiao, he will come looking for you."

"What?"

"He will come looking for me? To the headquarters?" Xiao Zhan simply could not believe his ears, as if he had heard some Arabian Nights tale.

"That's right." Zhou Yu nodded affirmatively, "He has no intention of giving up on pursuing this matter; in his heart, he still suspects you are the mastermind behind this, and he even suspects me."

"Suspects you, Master?" Xiao Zhan was greatly shocked.

"Yes, although he didn't say it explicitly, I can sense it." Zhou Yu gave a helpless, bitter smile, "He asked me to bring you a message. He said that before long, he will come here to ask you for the truth of the matter. If he finds out that you were indeed the one behind it, he will..."

Zhou Yu paused slightly, his expression serious as he said: "Kill you."

Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment, then fury burned fiercely in his eyes, and he sneered: "Just him? Master, let me go to Yongan City right now; I want to let him know exactly who ends up killing whom!"

Seeing this, a flash of imperceptible amusement crossed Zhou Yu's eyes. Yet he said: "Don't be impulsive; he is not as easy to deal with as you imagine. If you go over now, you might just be playing right into his hands."

"Master, do you think I am no match for him?" Xiao Zhan's face was full of disbelief.

"That is not what Master means."

Zhou Yu reached out, patted his shoulder lightly, and said earnestly: "Master just thinks that with your current strength, even if you could defeat him, it would by no means be an easy task.

Since he said he would come to the headquarters to find you before long, why don't you seize this precious time to further improve your own strength?"

"Not necessary." Xiao Zhan sneered: "There is no need to wait for a period of time at all; the current me is enough to easily defeat him!"

"Do not underestimate the enemy." Zhou Yu's expression darkened, and he said sternly: "How many more times must I tell you the principle that a prideful army is bound to fail?"

"Yes, Master." Xiao Zhan had no choice but to lower his head obediently, yet his face remained full of defiance.

A guy from a mere small city, where did he get the guts to dare challenge him, the pride of the headquarters?

And he even threatened to kill him?

Does he not know that even the geniuses from the other few associations would not dare to be so presumptuous in front of him! What does he have to rely on?

Seeing Xiao Zhan in this state, Zhou Yu felt increasingly pleased.

Very good, Xiao Zhan's fighting spirit had been completely ignited; for the next period of time, even without his urging, he would practice with high spirits.

Plus his own careful guidance, by the day Lu Yu comes knocking, the one who loses will certainly not be Xiao Zhan. Moreover, he could just take this opportunity to dampen Lu Yu's arrogance.

"Little Xiao, for the next period of time, I will impart the first half of the Undying Seal Technique to you," Zhou Yu said.

"What? The Undying Seal Technique!" Xiao Zhan, who had been full of defiance, instantly turned to surprise and asked excitedly: "Master, you... you are going to teach me the Undying Seal Technique?"

"Mm." A smile appeared on Zhou Yu's face, "I am still studying and perfecting the second half of the Undying Seal Technique. To completely finish it will still take quite a long time, and whether it can even be completed remains an unknown.

However, I can impart the first half to you now.

If you can learn this first half, when the time truly comes to battle Lu Yu, your chances of winning will increase significantly, and it will also be of great benefit to your future development."

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!" Xiao Zhan was moved to tears and kept kowtowing.

The Undying Seal Technique—that was a peerless martial art!

Once this mental cultivation method is mastered, one can convert the vast majority of the world's attacks into one's own blood energy and True Qi, making one almost invincible.

The only flaw is that there is currently only half of it.

But a complete Secret Manual, let alone the headquarters, even the other few associations, or even the Awakened Association, could not produce one.

Being able to master half of it, he was already satisfied.

If he added the Five Thunders Transformation Extreme Hand he had learned before, he would possess two peerless martial arts.

"No need to be so excited." Zhou Yu hurriedly helped him up and said: "With your talent, you can be considered one of the best in the Association; Master wishes he could impart everything he has learned in his life to you. However, there is one condition you must agree to."

"Please speak, Master."

Xiao Zhan said hurriedly; as long as he could learn the Undying Seal Technique, let alone one condition, he would agree to ten or a hundred without hesitation.

"This condition is, if that day truly comes when Lu Yu comes to find you for a great battle, if you win, Master hopes you can show mercy and not take his life."

"This..." Xiao Zhan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Fine, since Master has said so, this disciple agrees."

"I have wronged you." Zhou Yu felt slightly relieved in his heart.

The reason he said this was also just in case.

After all, swords have no eyes, and even with his strength, it would not be an easy task to stop it when the time came.

Little did he know, Xiao Zhan was secretly sneering in his heart. Show mercy?

That brat has already threatened to kill him, and he still expects him to show mercy?

Dream on! Anyway, when the time comes, he would just say he couldn't control it, and Master wouldn't blame him.

Lu Yu, oh Lu Yu, once I learn the Undying Seal Technique, let's see what you have left to fight me with!!!

"Creak—"

Accompanied by a slight sound, the heavy door of the conference room was slowly pushed open from the inside.

Lu Yu walked out from the door with steady steps.

"Brother Lu!"

"Brother Lu, are you alright?"

"What exactly happened?"

Kang Yuan and his group stood at the door of the conference room with nervous expressions, asking one after another.

It was not just them; other members in the Association, having heard the commotion, also gathered around one after another.

The commotion from the second floor earlier, while not earth-shattering, was enough to attract everyone's attention.

Upon learning the news, Kang Yuan and the others rushed over without stopping.

At this moment, some of the bolder people standing in front could not help but sneak a few glances into the open conference room.

They vaguely saw the President sitting on the ground, and not far away, there seemed to be a figure lying there quietly.

"It was just a small bit of trouble, fortunately, it has now been successfully resolved," Lu Yu said with a smile, his expression calm.

Kang Yuan and the others looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion. A small bit of trouble?

Was this really just a small bit of trouble?

They could clearly smell a pungent scent of blood wafting out from the conference room.
