Chapter 418: 415 Destructive Spear
After the incident at Elder Mountain,
Feng Xiu left District 1 and returned to his lair.
When Lin Jianying contacted him, Feng Xiu didn’t hesitate at all and immediately revealed his location to Lin Jianying.
He also asked Lin Jianying to bring some materials if he was coming over,
saying that his recovery ritual was still short of some supplies.
He even urged Lin Jianying to hurry, not to delay his ritual.
He seemed to trust Lin Jianying implicitly.
But no sooner had he hung up the communication with Lin Jianying than Feng Xiu immediately contacted someone else, and his first words were, “Lao Wu is a problem!”
Extreme Cold Hell.
After hanging up the call, Lin Jianying looked up at Lu Wu.
“Found it, it’s in the same city where you disrupted his ritual last time.
Shall we go now?”
“No, you go ahead. I have some matters to deal with here and after I’m done, I’ll also pick up my little one from home, then join you.”
Lu Wu’s eyes narrowed.
He had not forgotten who had held him up for most of the day at Elder Mountain.
And Zhang Yunyi had not only blocked him but also spoke lots of incomprehensible things during the process.
Like “it’s too late,” “unchangeable,” and the like.
From those words to her involvement in this affair,
Her role in this event was definitely more complex than Lin Jianying’s, and she surely knew more than Lin Jianying.
Thus, at this moment, Lu Wu definitely needed to see her.
He needed her to give him an explanation.
If she couldn’t provide a satisfactory explanation, Lu Wu wouldn’t mind killing.
Even if she did, Lu Wu might still kill.
After all, he hadn’t vent out any of the resentment that had accumulated due to Dudu’s death.
So, he truly was going over with the intention of killing.
With a surge of Evil Qi, Lu Wu and Lin Jianying parted ways in Extreme Cold Hell.
One left District 1 directly for Feng Xiu’s location, while the other went towards Jiangbei.
At this time, Jiangbei was experiencing the most chaotic period in twenty years.
From the moment Zhang Yunyi took charge of Jiangbei, it had always been tightly under her control.
As long as she was in Jiangbei, chaos was not possible.
What about when she wasn’t around?
This had never been contemplated before by anyone in Jiangbei, not even by the Alliance who had never thought there would be a day in Jiangbei without Zhang Yunyi.
Even Elder Mountain had not taken action against Zhang Yunyi after the incident with Dudu.
This spoke volumes of Zhang Yunyi’s abilities and influence.
However, such a figure was no more.
Her absence wasn’t due to disappearance but murder, executed blatantly in front of all the senior officials of Jiangbei.
Zhang Yunyi had been in a meeting at the time.
Midway through the meeting, an unimaginably terrifying aura burst forth.
The entire Jiangbei sky turned black, and at the same moment, a pair of enormous eyes appeared above the Jiangbei Governor’s Mansion.
Those eyes fixed their gaze on Zhang Yunyi,
filled with anger and hatred, followed immediately by a voice as if coming from hell.
“Die!”
Simultaneously, a black Fog quickly condensed.
Moments later, a black spear carrying a destructive aura descended, targeting Zhang Yunyi.
Facing this sudden adversary and unexpected attack, Zhang Yunyi, though caught off guard, didn’t just sit back, but reacted explosively, using every trick in her arsenal.
She summoned all her Summoned Beasts, even smashing down many precious Legendary items like money was no object, trying to fend off the black spear, but to no avail.
The spear descended, piercing through all of Zhang Yunyi’s Summoned Beasts.
Those Legendary items, whether activated or not, were all cleanly pierced by this strike.
Eventually, she herself also died under that spear.
This person, who had ruled Jiangbei for twenty years with immense power and influence that even the Alliance and Elder Mountain dared not casually provoke, died in a most miserable and pathetic manner.
The spear pierced through her skull, pinning her body upright!
Black Flames burst out from the spear, incinerating her to ash.
After these actions, the eyes in the sky above the Governor’s Mansion, filled with endless rage, slowly closed, and the sky of Jiangbei gradually regained its Light.
However, although the sky of Jiangbei had regained its Light, the entire Jiangbei was shrouded in darkness.
Many recognized those eyes and the black spear.
The owner of those eyes was supposed to be that Legendary figure.
The one who founded the Zero Organization, proclaimed as the strongest Summoner and the closest existence to a god.
That spear was the infamous Destructive Spear!
That being had not appeared for twenty to thirty years, and surprisingly, his first appearance was such.
It was clear that Zhang Yunyi, this foolish woman, had done something to infuriate him, bringing about her own death.
However, few were interested in what exactly Zhang Yunyi had done to incite this deadly fate.
Nor did they dare to be interested.
After all, they didn’t know if this undue curiosity could bring them a similar fate.
What they were most interested in was what Zhang Yunyi left behind after her death.
Who would inherit such vast assets of Jiangbei, as well as twenty years of Zhang Yunyi’s savings and property?
Zhang Yuechu?
Many who had been as tame and obedient as dogs during Zhang Yunyi’s reign suddenly felt that this young lady might not be up to such a heavy responsibility.
Conveniently, the Alliance was of the same opinion.
Jiangbei had been such a thorn for the Alliance for so long,
_Parms
Some wanted Zhang Yuechu to leave, while others hoped she would stay.
“Leave for what? Should we in Jiangbei even bother with such trifles?
And to let the Secret Realm Bureau be privy to the information?
Do they deserve it? When did we in Jiangbei ever need to cooperate with the Secret Realm Bureau?
Since when did such minor roles in the Secret Realm Bureau have the right to interrogate our young lady?
Absolutely not, we won’t go!”
The statement was firm, but someone immediately responded with a sarcastic tone, “Young Lady, today’s events were too sudden, the Governor suddenly left!
With the Governor not around, Jiangbei is no longer the same as before. Times have changed, Young Lady should recognize the overall situation as the most important.”
“Yes, Young Lady…”
In an instant, the entire Governor’s Mansion was thrown into chaos.
Zhang Yuechu looked around indifferently, only to see loyally served dogs, once freed from their collars and the owners who held their leashes, instantly transform into ravenous wolves ready to attack anyone.
Watching this scene, Zhang Yuechu couldn’t help but sneer with a mocking smile.
Her sarcasm and mocking were not directed at the pack of wolf-dogs before her, but rather at her mother who had just tragically died before her eyes.
In the midst of this chaotic scene, she turned to look at what was now ashes of Zhang Yunyi and mockingly said, “This is the Jiangbei you spent over two decades cultivating, these are the people you’ve trained.
One by one, what great loyalty indeed!”
Her words struck everyone present like a slap in the face, causing the previously noisy room to fall silent.
Zhang Yuechu did not even look at them as she continued, “I have no interest in Jiangbei, and I will go to Beijing too, but not now.
At least, not until I have taken care of her funeral.”
With that, she turned around, placed her hands on the table, and slightly bowed her head, glancing at the group of old men before her.
“So, could you please give me a few days?”
Her words added a touch of oppression to the already silent conference room.
The group of wolf-dogs exchanged glances.
Eventually, a voice spoke up.
“Young Lady, perhaps we should handle the Governor’s funeral instead.”
“Yes, the Alliance’s matters are more urgent, and you needn’t worry about the funeral arrangements for the Governor. We have served her for twenty or thirty years without ever disappointing her. This time too, we will make her satisfied.”
“We promise to arrange a grand funeral for the Governor. Young Lady, you should head to Beijing sooner.”
“What if I insist on staying?”
Zhang Yuechu’s words immediately froze the atmosphere, and the expressions on the faces of the loyal dogs grew somber.
One by one, Summoned Beasts began to materialize behind several individuals.
The already oppressive atmosphere was beginning to take on a scent of gunpowder; it was clear that the group was ready to resort to violence to solve the problem.
Zhang Yuechu raised an eyebrow, “It seems clear now, if I don’t leave, I won’t be able to depart, right?”
A middle-aged man, adjusting his glasses, replied, “No, even if you decided to leave now, you wouldn’t be able to!”
After all, they were dogs raised by Zhang Yunyi.
Extremely vicious, and for them, such matters if undertaken, had to be carried out ruthlessly.
One Zhang Yunyi had already died, and they did not mind another death of Zhang Yuechu.
Although Zhang Yuechu was Lu Haikong’s daughter, Lu Haikong wasn’t unfamiliar with losing a son, and he hadn’t reacted much before.
At worst, if Lu Haikong was particularly fond of his daughter and sought revenge, they would just push the blame on to the head of Zero Organization.
With this in mind, the Summoned Beasts that had appeared suddenly circled Zhang Yuechu.
Beside her, brows furrowed tightly, yet no one acted or even spoke up to mediate.
Just as Zhang Yuechu was about to be attacked, she was about to summon her own Summoned Beast when suddenly, a roar filled with anger and resentment echoed, followed by a series of placating and soothing voices.
“No, listen to me explain…”
“Ow!”
“Stop, don’t wag your tail…”
“Puff!”
A loud noise, as if the air had burst, resounded in the mid-air of the Governor’s Mansion. Immediately after, a figure smashed down, landing right in the middle of a conference room, completely collapsing the already ravaged room due to the Destructive Spear.
“Who is that?”
Inside the conference room, the brows of the Devouring Master’s evil hounds wrinkled, and they quickly reacted, with the middle-aged man commanding first,
“Keep an eye on Zhang Yuechu, don’t let her leave, and check on that guy…”
Before the middle-aged man could finish his order, the sound of a dragon’s roar resounded again. A Five-Clawed Golden Dragon descended from the sky, its tail sweeping across, instantly exploding a Summoned Beast that was about to inspect the falling Lu Wu.
After exploding the Summoned Beast, the Golden Dragon headed straight for Lu Wu, hovering in mid-air with its tail whipping frenzy.
The dragon’s tail even caused frightening phantoms to appear.
With each strike, the ground trembled, shaking the whole Jiangbei Governor’s Mansion.
In just a few minutes, before the Governor’s Mansion could react to the initial strikes, it was already collapsing from the aftershocks.
“Ow!”
After a series of consecutive lashes, the Golden Dragon finally seemed to have released its anger.
After a relieving roar, the little creature directly dove into Lu Wu’s heart and disappeared.
Only then did Lu Wu, who had been lashed repeatedly, manage to crawl up from the ground.
“What the hell was that supposed to be?”
Lu Wu hadn’t expected that his first battle after breaking through to the Epic Level would be him getting thrashed by his own pet.
And the worst part was that he couldn’t fight back.
After all, he really did owe that creature an apology.
There was no choice but to take a solid beating.
Fortunately, the little creature knew its own strength and didn’t strike fatally. Additionally, unaware of Lu Wu’s significant power breakthrough and not controlling its force,
Lu Wu endured it all without any injury.
Rather than saying he took a beating, it felt more like enjoying a round of dragon tail massage.
And surprisingly, it was quite comfortable.
So when Lu Wu got up and stretched a satisfying stretch, those around him were stunned.
And when they clearly saw Lu Wu’s face, it was not just astonishment; the pack of evil hounds furrowed their brows with cold sweat streaming down.
Lu Wu didn’t pay attention to this.
After he stood up, he immediately looked towards Zhang Yuechu.
“Where is Zhang Yunyi?”
Zhang Yuechu stared at Lu Wu, stunned for a good while, before finally pointing to a scorched patch of ground in front.
Lu Wu was about to say something when suddenly his expression changed.
He sensed an extremely dense evil energy coming from that scorched ground, a level of evil energy he had only seen in one person before—the leader of the Zero Organization, as remembered by Yukawa Ryuzo.
“What’s going on? Did that guy come here?”
Zhang Yuechu nodded, “Yeah, he was here a few hours ago, and he killed my mom!”
“That’s impossible!”
Lu Wu refused to believe that woman could be killed so easily.
Even if the one who made the move was him, Zhang Yunyi would never die that easily!
