Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

132 Zhang Yu’s Choice

Someone was breaking through to the Great Grand Master level. That terrifying aura that was rapidly rising, was still being released, causing the entire Lunan City to tremble.

“That is coming from the direction of the City Lord’s Office. Could it be… the City Lord has broken through?”

At this moment, everyone in Lunan City looked in the direction of the City Lord’s Office. Their eyes were filled with shock and realization. No wonder there had been no movement from the City Lord’s Office. It turned out that Yan Hong was preparing to break through to the Great Grand Master level.

“Hahaha… I thought that the City Lord was avoiding the brilliant Lu Yu, but it turns out that he was plotting his ultimate move.”

“He’s a Great Grand Master now. Previously, there was none in Lunan City. I think that Lu Yu is doomed now.”

“What do you mean by ‘think’? It’s definitely over for Lu Yu. Who can withstand the power of a Great Grand Master? The current City Lord can crush Lu Yu with a single finger.”

Many families who had lost many benefits because of the rise of the Central Dojo retorted angrily, their eyes filled with joy.

In the City Lord’s Office,

Yan Hong condensed his true energy. As his aura continued to rise, his cultivation also rose like the tide. He broke through rapidly until he finally reached a bottleneck.

After pausing for a few seconds, he suddenly broke through this bottleneck as well. The aura of a Great Grand Master gushed out without any obstruction.

From afar, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth of the entire Lunan City was gathering towards the City Lord’s Office, forming a huge gray vortex. It was as if a divine deity was gathering the aura from all directions and swallowing everything.

“Hahaha… I broke through! I finally broke through!”

Yan Hong was immensely overjoyed, his face flushed with excitement. He had been stuck at the peak-level of the Grand Master level for more than 60 years. He had finally broken through this bottleneck and become a high and mighty Great Grand Master.

This level of existence was something that all the powerful experts in the entire Federation could not hold a candle to in terms of treatment or status. Not even Grand Masters could compare to it.

Fully clad in a black robe, Lord Ying’s expression couldn’t be seen clearly. He nodded and said, “Not bad. You have broken through to the Great Grand Master level. The Ying family’s efforts in nurturing you have not been in vain.”

Yan Hong restrained his excitement and said with a bow, “All of this is thanks to Lord Ying’s guidance. Without the Nine Revolutions Wallbreaker Pill you provided, I wouldn’t have been able to break through to the Great Grand Master level.”

The Nine Revolutions Wallbreaker Pill was one of the top-notch breakthrough pills. The One to Three Revolutions pill could help people break through to the Martial Master level. The Four to Six Revolutions pill could help people break through to the Great Martial Master level. The Seven to Eight Revolutions pill could help people break through to the Grand Master level.

And the top-notch Nine Revolutions pill could help people break through to the Great Grand Master level! Of course, this also required the user to be at the peak-level of Grand Master before such an achievement was possible.

This kind of pill was an important strategic reserve in the Federation’s treasury. Even the Ying family did not have many of them, yet they had given one to Yan Hong. It could be seen how much importance the Ying family attached to Yan Hong’s role as the City Lord of Lunan City.

Lord Ying said nonchalantly, “You’ve already broken through to the Great Grand Master level. In a few more days, our Ying family will use our connections to transfer you to a more important city. You must seize this opportunity and not disappoint me.”

With that, he patted Yan Hong heavily on the shoulder.

Yan Hong, who felt very motivated, trembled as if he had been given a shot of steroids. After Lord Ying left, Qin Cheng, who had kept his head lowered all the time, stepped forward and said, “City Lord, that Lu Yu has been in the limelight in Lunan City for quite some time now.”

“Hmph! We’re not in a hurry. Let’s toy with him slowly! I want him to know who the true ruler of Lunan City is!”

Yan Hong’s expression changed rapidly and turned gloomy. He was a Great Grand Master now. All the cultivators in Lunan City were not his match even if they joined forces.

“So it’s him who has broken through to the Great Grand Master level.” Lu Yu looked in the direction of the City Lord’s Office and was quite surprised. Then, realization suddenly hit him.

Yan Hong had been maintaining a low profile all for the sake of breaking through to the Great Grand Master level. After this, Yan Hong would most likely launch an attack on him.

Beside him, Zhang Wu was trembling in fear from the aura of a Great Grand Master. He said worriedly, “Grandpa Lu, that Yan Hong has already broken through to the Great Grand Master level. I’m afraid all is lost now.”

“It doesn’t matter. Let him attack me. I’m quite looking forward to seeing how strong he is.”

Lu Yu’s eyes flickered brightly. It should be made known that up till now, he had yet to fight a Great Grand Master.

Seeing Lu Yu’s indifferent expression, Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment. Then, an unbelievable thought surfaced in his mind, shocking him.

Grandpa Lu wasn’t afraid of Yan Hong. Could it be that he also had the strength to match a Great Grand Master?

Meanwhile,

after Yan Hong broke through to the Great Grand Master level, undercurrents surged in the entire Lunan City. Initially, after seeing Lu Yu’s strength and his methods of unifying the four big city districts, many powerful families who bore grudges could only become obedient under Lu Yu’s tyrannical might.

Now that Yan Hong had broken through to the Great Grand Master level, they became restless again.

This was especially true for the Wang and Yue families. They immediately prepared generous gifts and paid a visit to the City Lord’s Office. Now that there was someone to step forward for them, the other families also paid visits.

In an instant, the winds changed. Many families who had initially visited the Central Dojo also visited the City Lord’s Office.

“The Zhao family is here to pay our respects to the City Lord. We beseech the City Lord to kill Lu Yu!”

“That’s right. This Lu Yu relied on his strength to act like a tyrant in Lunan City. He openly ignored the rules of Lunan City and challenged the City Lord’s authority. He must be killed immediately as a warning to others!”

The representatives of the powerful families all spoke with hostility and castigated Lu Yu bitterly. Listening to them, one would think that Lu Yu was a sinner of countless heinous sins.

On the other hand, there was no movement at all on Lu Yu’s side. It was as if he didn’t know that Yan Hong had broken through to the Great Grand Master level. The members of the Central Dojo and the 4th squadron were training as usual.

Lu Yu wasn’t anxious, but the Zhang family was!

Not long ago, the Zhang family had aligned themselves with Lu Yu, this big shot, thinking that they could soar into the sky and fantasize about a beautiful future. Not long after this, they saw Yan Hong breaking through to the Great Grand Master level.

Yan Hong would definitely settle old accounts with Lu Yu, and the Zhang family would naturally not be spared.

That night, Zhang Yu gathered the members of his entire clan and began discussing. The Zhang family unanimously decided to switch allegiance to the City Lord’s Office, but this proposal was rejected by Zhang Yu.

“We’ve already offended almost all the families. Do you think that even if we switch allegiance to the City Lord’s Office, they will not come and settle the score with us later?”

Zhang Yu’s eyes were blood-shot. At the thought of the possible reckoning that the Zhang family might face, his hands couldn’t help but tremble. A moment later, Zhang Yu, who had finally calmed down a lot, said in a low voice, “Huai’an, go to the Central Dojo immediately. Tell them that many families in the four big city districts are disobedient and wreaking havoc. As a result, we have to ask for Dojo Master Lu’s opinion.”

Zhang Huaian immediately left and returned in less than an hour.

“Why are you back so quickly? Did you not see Dojo Master Lu?” Zhang Yu’s heart sank and his expression turned gloomy.

“I met Miss Song. She said that we are to do our job according to the rules!” Zhang Huaian whispered into Zhang Yu’s ear.

Zhang Yu’s face became even more glum as his eyes flickered with a thoughtful expression. The fate of the entire clan was on his shoulders. He had to make a decision as soon as possible.
