“Lu Yu, oh, Lu Yu, you’ve finally come! Join me.”

Lu Yu stood firm, locking eyes with the approaching figure. “Speak,” he demanded, his voice steady. “Who sent you to call for me?”

Jiang Tianxing chuckled. “No one but myself. I sought you out for a private discussion. Followto the backyard. Afterward, I’ll submit to whatever punishment you deem fit.”

Lu Yu’s gaze narrowed. “Jiang Tianxing, your audacity astounds me. You are courting your own demise.”

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Tianxing acknowledged the gravity of the situation. He knew any plea for forgiveness would be in vain. Lu Yu’s mercy had reached its limit.

His hands trembled uncontrollably, betraying the nervous tremor coursing through him. He struggled for words, finally uttering, “Follow me. You’ll understand why I brought you here.”

“Why must we go there? Can’t the discussion take place here?” Lu Yu countered.

Jiang Tianxing pursed his lips. “Have you grown timid, Lu Yu? Why hesitate to follow me?”

“Jiang Tianxing,” Lu Yu’s voice hardened, “you spoke of a conversation. Why must we relocate to the backyard? Do you keep alluring women there?”

Jiang Tianxing’s silence confirmed Lu Yu’s suspicion. “From the outset, I suspected someone was pulling your strings. You lacked the courage and strength to approachalone, unless… you’ve lost your mind.”

“Therefore, I’m sure you’re acting on another’s orders. Now, you seek to lureinto the backyard. Obviously, your ‘patron’ awaits there, is that right?”

Deflated, Jiang Tianxing realized his elaborate plan had unraveled. His haste had betrayed him. “Lu Yu, are you coming or not?”

“Lu Yu,” Hu Mang added, desperation lacing his voice. “Our boss wishes to speak with you in private. The current setting is unsuitable.”

Lu Yu whipped around in a blur of motion as he seized Hu Mang by the neck, hoisting him effortlessly.

Gasping for air, Hu Mang clawed desperately at Lu Yu’s hand.

“Enough with your lies!”

With a sickening crack, Lu Yu twisted Hu Mang’s neck, then tossed the lifeless body aside like discarded trash.

Dusting his hands, Lu Yu turned back to Jiang Tianxing. “Lead the way. Showwho dares challenge me.”

“As you wish,” Jiang Tianxing croaked, shaken by the brutal display of Lu Yu’s power.

He couldn’t shake the chilling premonition that his own demise was imminent.

They navigated the winding path around the villa, finally arriving at the backyard.

A sprawling expanse, adorned with a verdant lawn and vibrant flowerbeds, greeted them. The air hummed with the sweet fragrance of blossoming flora.

“Jiang,” Lu Yu’s voice was laced with contempt. “Spare the theatrics. Reveal your patron’s identity. Concealment is pointless.”

Jiang Tianxing stood rooted to the spot, taking a deep breath to steady himself. “I have brought you here per your request!” he declared, a desperate plea escaping his lips.

“Placing my trust in you, I risked my life to bring him here. You must offer something in return, wouldn’t you? Surely you wouldn’t deceive me?”

Though unsurprised, Lu Yu couldn’t deny a flicker of suspicion. This man, undeniably backed by someone powerful, had taken a reckless gamble, becoming a pawn in a ghe barely understood.

However, Lu Yu’s true concern lay in the sheer audacity of the individual pulling the strings. To involve an unknowing accomplice in such a dangerous schbordered on insanity.

Silence hung heavy in the air, broken only by the rustle of leaves and the distant chirp of crickets. Jiang Tianxing remained frozen, unsure of how to proceed.

“Hello?” Lu Yu’s voice cut through the tense silence. “So? Where is this person you speak of? Were you deceived?” Thɪs chapter is updated by NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

“Impossible! This can’t be happening! He… He lied to me! He deserves to die!” He clenched his fists, teeth gritting in frustration.

Lu Yu shook his head, a hint of sympathy flickering in his eyes. “While I acknowledge your misfortune, I will not ignore your actions. Your relentless pursuit of revenge has blinded you.”

“So, I will not offer you mercy.”

Just as Lu Yu prepared to advance, a voice echoed directly in his mind. It belonged to the Nightmare Dragon.

“Master, beware! A potent source of spiritual energy approaches us with hostile intent!”

Lu Yu’s brow furrowed. This unexpected development confirmed his suspicions; this elaborate trap had a puppet master.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a circular array materialized beneath his feet, encasing him within its crimson borders.

The pulsating red light intensified, forming a blood-red cage that imprisoned Lu Yu with unnatural speed.

Witnessing this spectacle, Jiang Tianxing’s despair vanished, replaced by a surge of exhilaration. “It appeared! It’s here! The mysterious man has acted!”

His voice vibrated with newfound confidence, and his entire demeanor revitalized.

Swoosh!

As if conjured by Jiang Tianxing’s declaration, a crimson sword materialized within the blood mist, streaking toward Lu Yu with deadly intent.

Simultaneously, the air thickened with a dense crimson fog, obscuring the surroundings and enveloping Lu Yu in a suffocating embrace.

Within the blood mist, Lu Yu’s senses were bombarded. A pungent, metallic stench filled his nostrils, followed by the sight of countless crimson blades materializing and hurtling toward him.

He reacted instinctively, maneuvering within the cage’s confines and dodging the barrage agilily.

However, as he evaded the initial onslaught, a new threat emerged. The crimson cage, pulsating with an ominous hum, began progressively shrinking.

Reacting swiftly, Lu Yu materialized his Explosive Dragon Claws. He aimed for the cage’s crimson bars to cleave them open and break free.

“In your dreams! I don’t think you will trapso easily!”

The clash between the claws and the cage was a spectacle of dazzling sparks. However, despite the immense force exerted, the cage remained unyielding.

A booming laugh erupted from within the blood mist, mocking Lu Yu’s futile struggle. “Hahahaha! Stop your struggles! You are mere prey trapped within the Crimson Blood Cage; prepare to die!”

Lu Yu, undeterred by the taunts, scanned the thick crimson mist, searching for the source of the voice.

“Invisibility, hm?” he muttered.

The Nightmare Dragon’s telepathic voice spoke out at this moment.

“Master, your adversary is approximately thirteen meters northwest of your current position. He seems to be employing an invisibility technique.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly. “I know, but this cage doesn’t seem easy to crack open. I need to think of another way. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll let my dragons out and end the battle quickly. I don’t want to spend too much tfighting against someone I don’t know..”
