~6 min read 1,163 words

It was not just Zhang Lu; everyone in the hall, after Zhang Xiu's head was thrown in, turned their gaze toward the tall figure standing at the hall entrance.

Of course, the most intuitive reaction came from Su Gu.

At such a close distance,

Su Gu could feel the powerful pressure radiating from the man standing before him more than anyone else.

This was a feeling Su Gu had never experienced before.

Even when facing the Emperor in the Luoyang Imperial Palace,

Even when facing the Provincial Governor Liu Yan, or perhaps the former Three Excellencies,

Su Gu had never felt such powerful pressure.

It was a kind of fear that suffocated him and made him want to retreat from the bottom of his heart.

The man just stood there, as if behind him were thousands of troops and horses, an endless abyss.

And that word "Master."

Zhang Lu clearly heard Duan Liuqing behind him call the man in front of the door "Master."

Who was he?

Why did Duan Liuqing call him Master?

"Su Gu, is it?" Duan Yu's mouth curled slightly as he looked down at Su Gu and said, "Do not worry about your family; I have already resolved that for you."

Hiss!

Su Gu gasped.

This person...

He referred to himself as "Gu" (the Solitary One)...

What kind of person could refer to themselves as "Gu"?

It must be a King.

Only a King could use such a title.

There were many titled Kings in the Great Han.

But Su Gu had never heard of anyone like the one before him.

Moreover, when that "Gu" rang out, a name had already surfaced in Su Gu's mind.

Rumor had it he was the tiger general of the age.

Rumor had it he was the world's number one fierce general.

Since he first made a name for himself, he had never known defeat.

Chasing the murderer Wang Rou for a thousand miles, burning Mount Tanhanshan, making a name for himself in Luoyang, intimidating the Xiongnu, suppressing the Qiang tribes, pacifying the Huang Jin, sweeping across the Western Regions...

Wherever this name appeared, miracles always happened...

The King of Liang.

Duan Yu!

Everyone in the hall gasped.

Guanzhong was adjacent to Hanzhong.

At such a time, for such a person to appear here.

"You..." Su Gu stared at Duan Yu with wide eyes.

Duan Yu smiled.

Then his gaze shifted from Su Gu to everyone in the hall, sweeping over them one by one before finally landing on Zhang Lu.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Duan Yu; perhaps you have all heard my name."

Duan Yu, dressed in a black robe, walked toward the hall as he spoke.

At this time, a large number of axemen were still surrounding Su Gu, Zhao Song, and Chen Diao.

But as Duan Yu took steps toward the hall, the axemen, holding shields in one hand and blades in the other, began to retreat involuntarily.

Duan Yu's name was now known to everyone in the Great Han.

A King of a different surname, a match for ten thousand, the tiger general of the age...

The retreating axemen all had looks of terror in their eyes.

Under Duan Yu's powerful pressure, no one dared to face him directly; they all kept retreating, retreating, and retreating.

And Duan Yu walked into the hall step by step as if he were taking a leisurely stroll.

Thump!

A retreating soldier lost his footing and tripped, instantly being distanced by his companions.

The fallen soldier threw away his blade and shield in terror, then scrambled backward on his hands and feet.

The moment Duan Yu entered the hall, a large number of assassins from the Military Intelligence Department, dressed in black and holding crossbows, poured in from the pitch-black courtyard outside.

Liu Bai Tu also appeared at the hall entrance like a phantom of the night, then followed Duan Yu's footsteps toward Zhang Lu.

"Master." Duan Liuqing's eyes were full of affection and admiration.

At this moment, Zhang Lu also realized that Duan Liuqing was Duan Yu's person.

"You..."

Zhang Lu gritted his teeth and said with a resentful tone: "My mother saved you from fire and water, yet you betrayed my mother and went with him..."

"Shut up!"

Duan Liuqing held the dagger against Zhang Lu's neck and said in a cold voice: "I am an orphan brought back by the Master from Mount Tanhanshan; I have long been the Master's person. How can there be any talk of betrayal?"

Duan Yu came before Duan Liuqing, took the dagger from her hand, and gave her a gentle look.

Duan Liuqing immediately stepped back.

Zhang Lu had thought he was saved, but then his neck was directly gripped by a large hand.

By the time Zhang Lu reacted, his feet had already left the ground.

His flushed face looked like pig liver.

"I heard you wanted to take Qing'er as a concubine?"

Duan Yu's eyes were icy.

At this moment, Zhang Lu could no longer speak a word; his arms slapped hard against Duan Yu's thick arm, but it was of no use.

His legs, dangling off the ground, were also kicking hard.

Everyone in the hall did not dare to breathe a word upon seeing this scene.

"You have great courage; I am very interested in cutting you open to take a look."

As he spoke, Duan Yu directly stabbed the dagger in his hand into Zhang Lu's abdominal cavity.

Blood sprayed out, and a huge gash was opened in Zhang Lu's abdomen.

After discarding the dagger, Duan Yu directly reached one hand into Zhang Lu's abdominal cavity.

Ugh~

Seeing such a brutal scene from Duan Yu,

Someone in the hall had already turned their head and started vomiting uncontrollably.

Zhang Lu was bloodless, his body twitching, and his eyes had already begun to roll back.

The moment Zhang Lu's gallbladder was pulled out of his abdominal cavity by Duan Yu, Zhang Lu had already breathed his last.

Bang.

Duan Yu tossed Zhang Lu's corpse to the side.

Still holding Zhang Lu's gallbladder in one hand, he then sneered.

"Your courage is not small, but unfortunately... your life is too thin."

Duan Yu casually tossed Zhang Lu's gallbladder onto the serving tray on the table.

The hall was now so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Even Su Gu, Zhao Song, and Chen Diao were stunned.

Rumors said Duan Yu's methods were extremely brutal.

But those were just rumors; now everyone had seen it with their own eyes.

"Administrator Su." Duan Yu turned around and looked at Su Gu, saying: "I came to Hanzhong to take Qing'er back; it was just a coincidence that I passed by here, and I heard Qing'er say that Zhang Lu wanted to harm you."

"Originally... this matter had nothing to do with me; it was your internal strife, and I was too lazy to get involved." ===== CHAPTER 1428 =====
