Chapter 432: Soul Shifting Clone

~7 min read 1,347 words

"This master, please, I beg you to spare me. As long as you are willing to let me go, I will listen to everything you say and agree to anything."

The moment the words fell, a black Dagger shot out like lightning, piercing directly through Tian Wei's heart.

Tian Wei's body slowly collapsed, his wide-open eyes filled with shock and regret.

He truly could not understand why, even after he had humbled himself to such a degree, the other party still refused to let him go.

It was clear that he was just a person with no ability to resist.

If time could turn back, he would never agree to Lv Hua's proposal even if it killed him.

"Hmph, idiot." Wei Xiong let out a cold sneer.

Last time in An City, not a single person present could escape, so how could it be any different this time?

Therefore, although he was extremely unwilling for his Clone to die again, he was too lazy to waste any more breath on Tian Wei.

After he returned, he would definitely tell his good brother, the Wuji City Lord, about this matter.

Although this operation had failed, he had also obtained some information from it; he guessed that this Lu Yu was very likely hiding in the Yongan City area, perhaps even living inside Yongan City!

At this moment, only Lu Yu and Wei Xiong remained on the scene.

"Hmph, what are you still standing there for?" Wei Xiong urged impatiently: "Don't you want to kill me? Then hurry up and do it. I'm not afraid to tell you, I will bring people back again, and next time, it won't just be two B-Class Awakened."

Lu Yu heard this and frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Wei Xiong was overjoyed.

Could it be that this guy was finally starting to get scared? It must be!

Two B-Class Awakened; although it seemed easy for him to kill them, one only had to use their brain a little to realize that he must have paid a significant price, perhaps even sustained injuries, only that he couldn't see it right now.

If he waited until he brought his good brother over, there would be at least ten B-Class Awakened; with such powerful combat strength, even an A-Class Awakened would have to weigh things carefully, so it was only natural for Lu Yu to be afraid.

Thinking of this, Wei Xiong's tone suddenly became smug, "Know fear now? Why didn't you think of that earlier? It's not like I didn't give you a chance before; it's you who didn't know how to cherish it. How about this, if you let go of this Clone of mine now, I can let bygones be bygones regarding everything before, how about that?"

"For real?" Lu Yu asked with a suspicious look.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can go to Wuji City and ask around. When have I, Wei Xiong, ever gone back on my word?" Wei Xiong snorted coldly, speaking with full confidence.

"I'll consider it." Lu Yu said, pretending to think it over.

"Fine." Wei Xiong nodded, looked at Yu Feng's corpse not far away, and continued: "Their strength is inferior to yours, so they have nothing to complain about dying at your hands.

As for me, although I died at your hands once before, that was just a Clone and had no substantial impact on me, so you don't need to have any concerns.

As long as you let me go, I can recommend you to my good brother; he is the Wuji City Lord. If you can follow him, the benefits you will gain are immeasurable. You should weigh this carefully yourself."

Although he said this, Wei Xiong was not thinking that way at all.

If this Clone died again, his strength would very likely drop to D-Rank, and wanting to cultivate it back would be extremely difficult; moreover, the speed at which he could condense a Clone would be much slower.

So, it was best not to die if he could avoid it.

As for the recommendation, he also knew Lu Yu wouldn't easily believe it, but if Lu Yu really did believe it, he would wake up laughing in his dreams; after all, that would be no different from walking right into a trap.

Lu Yu frowned deeply, looking as if he were thinking seriously.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he lowered his voice: "Someone is coming."

Wei Xiong subconsciously prepared to look around, but suddenly felt the world go black and fainted.

At the same time, the real body of Wei Xiong, sitting in the Quiet Room, suddenly opened its eyes.

"What is going on?" His brows were tightly knitted into a "chuan" shape.

As the main body, he could freely switch between his real body and his Clone, but when the Clone fainted, his consciousness would be forcibly driven back to the main body.

In other words, he had no idea what was happening on the Clone's side at this very moment.

"What exactly does that guy want to do?" Wei Xiong clenched his fists, a strong sense of unease surging in his heart.

Could he be planning to do something to his Clone?

Hmph, thinking of this, Wei Xiong sneered in his heart; if Lu Yu was planning to control his Clone to threaten him, he was sorely mistaken.

Because he could completely control the Clone, or even make the Clone commit suicide!

In fact, Wei Xiong had guessed correctly; Lu Yu did indeed intend to do something to his Clone.

Just as Wei Xiong said, even if he killed this Clone, he would definitely bring people back again later; he would absolutely not let it go until he resolved his real body.

And most importantly, Wei Xiong knew the news about the Heavenly God Fruit; as long as he was alive, he would definitely come to compete for the Divine Fruit.

But the problem was, how to kill Wei Xiong's real body?

Rushing directly to Wuji City, using Heaven-Human Induction to find Wei Xiong's location, and then going in to kill him seemed like a feasible method, but it presented two difficulties.

First, the place where Wei Xiong's main body was located must be heavily guarded; not only would there be experts protecting it, but there might also be layers of protective measures like fingerprint and password verification. It was truly too difficult to pass through these obstacles silently.

Second, Wuji City was different from Yongan City; it was a medium-sized city, full of hidden talents, and he was not sure if he would alert others when using Heaven-Human Induction to investigate.

Therefore, Lu Yu thought of a bold idea: could he use this Clone to kill Wei Xiong's main body?

By doing this, for one, he didn't need to risk going deep into Wuji City, and for another, Wei Xiong would probably never expect that the thing to take his life in the end would be his own Clone.

Lu Yu grabbed the body of Wei Xiong's Clone, went a few hundred meters away, placed it on the ground, and then slowly squatted down, reached out to gently pry open one of the Clone's eyes, stared into them, and then activated the Soul Shifting Great Method.

"It really is an empty shell."

This was just as he had guessed; Wei Xiong's Clone had no self-consciousness.

However, a segment of memory remained in the Clone's mind.

This memory was not long, only about a day and a half, presumably because this Clone had not been born for long.

Most of the content of the memory was scenes of sitting in meditation and cultivating with the main body.

It was clear that Wei Xiong was very willing to invest resources in himself; not only was there a constant supply of various Pills, but drinks like Calming Tea were never interrupted.

Moreover, trivial matters like making tea were basically left for the Clone to do.

Lu Yu's eyes suddenly lit up; he keenly felt that the opportunity had arrived.
