98 Returning to the Resplendent East
The entire Lunan City’s attention was focused on the Central Dojo. However, when the onlookers saw Yan Hong and the dojo masters of the three big dojos walk out with gloomy expressions, they knew that their discussion had not come to any good conclusion, despite not knowing what transpired amongst them.
All of a sudden, everyone was discussing spiritedly, guessing that a major conflict might break out between Lu Yu, the City Lord’s Office, and the three big dojos soon.
“Extra, extra, here is the latest news!”
“So, the reason Lu Yu is going up against the City Lord’s Office and the three big dojos is because they attacked him in the blood-sucking wasteland.”
“It has been confirmed that all eight powerful experts of the four dojos died at Lu Yu’s hands.”
This piece of explosive news broke out a day later, leaving everyone dumbfounded and in utter disbelief.
To think that the City Lord’s Office and the four dojos had actually committed such a shameful act behind his back. No wonder Lu Yu wanted to fight them to the death.
An old man clicked his tongue and said, “If it were me, I would take revenge too if someone had plotted against me in this way.”
“That’s right. I really didn’t expect that as the City Lord, he would do such a thing. I support Lu Yu’s revenge!”
The dissatisfaction and criticism of Yan Hong among the cultivators in Lunan City grew. This news was also published by various major newspapers and media, becoming the most popular headline news in Lunan City.
Of course, there were also people who doubted the authenticity of this news. Almost immediately someone revealed that the news was leaked to him by his nephew who had joined the Central Dojo.
Moreover, the Central Dojo did not deny it immediately. This made people feel that the news was all the more reliable. It was Lu Yu who had encountered injustice and was venting his grievance in his own way.
“I support the Honorable Mr. Lu!”
“The Honorable Mr. Lu is the hero of our Lunan City. If not for him, who knows how many people would have died and lost their homes when the Fearsome Beasts attacked the city?”
The voices supporting Lu Yu grew louder and louder.
The three big dojos joined forces with the City Lord’s Office to issue a joint statement, strongly condemning this news as rumors. They also stated that someone with ulterior motives was deliberately slandering them. The City Lord’s Office even sent people to capture the person who spread the news.
“Hehe! There is no smoke without fire. They’re trying to hide their guilt. They urgently need to hush up the news.”
“Pfft! They have the guts to do it but don’t have the guts to admit it. What kind of heroes are they?”
However, this series of actions simply confirmed the authenticity of the news in the eyes of the cultivators in Lunan City.
The City Lord’s Office and the three big dojos were furious. The damaging news was already very widespread. Even if they continued to catch the rumor-mongers in this manner, they would not be able to catch them all.
Yan Hong gritted his teeth and growled, “Damn it, Lu Yu, you rascal! You really have balls of steel to do such a thing!”
He was calling Lu Yu a rascal, so the fury in his heart was evident. He wished he could tear Lu Yu apart right now.
“They have been gone for so long, yet there’s still no news?” Yan Hong turned his head and looked at Qin Cheng. He said in a low voice, “This Lu Yu has already become powerful. If this continues, I’m afraid the situation will completely spiral out of control.”
Qin Cheng nodded and said, “City Lord, the death warriors have already gone to the capital. I believe it won’t be long before they bring news.”
At this point, Qin Cheng was extremely excited and respected Yan Hong even more. Not only did the City Lord possess tremendous power in Lunan City, but his backer was also a large family in the capital. In the past, he had only heard of it, but now he received confirmation over the past few days.
That was the capital! It was the gathering of the strongest forces in the Flame Country. The city guards were ranked at the top of the country. Those who could gain a foothold there were noteworthy movers and shakers in the entire Flame Country.
“Hmph! I hope the people from the capital will arrive as soon as possible. When that time comes, let’s see how arrogant Lu Yu will be.”
There was a steely coldness and a trace of confidence in Yan Hong’s eyes. Gradually, he regained his composure.
In the East City District,
after spreading the news to bolster his stature, Lu Yu brought Song Yu and Qin Yong to the East End Dojo and its corresponding jurisdiction area.
On one side of a bustling commercial street, there was an elegant restaurant that was decorated magnificently. Many cultivators from Lunan City went in and out of this place, and the service staff were very respectful throughout.
This was the Resplendent East Restaurant. Compared to its previous appearance, the restaurant was even larger now and had hired more workers. It would appear that Wang Kang had earned a lot of money during this period.
Lu Yu sighed with emotion. He still remembered the first time he brought Giovanna, Lu Shan, and Lu Shui here to eat. He had been questioned as a fake Martial Master. In the blink of an eye, a few months had passed.
Seeing that Lu Yu and the others were cultivators, the service staff didn’t dare to slack off. He immediately went forward to invite them to sit down in a private room.
“Damn! You blind fellow. How can these people be ordinary guests?”
Wang Kang saw Lu Yu from afar and was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He had heard that Lu Yu had become sworn enemies with the City Lord’s Office and the three big dojos. Now that he was in the territory of the East End Dojo, it was inevitable that Wang Kang would start to worry excessively.
Nonetheless, Wang Kang put on a very respectful smile. He berated the service staff and personally brought Lu Yu and the other two to the poshest private room in the restaurant.
The service staff was utterly dumbfounded. Who was this big shot? To think that the boss had to receive him personally and was extremely respectful to him, behaving like some groveling sycophant.
Normally, even if a Martial Master came, the boss wouldn’t put on such an attitude.
It had to be said that Wang Kang had put in a lot of effort. Not only was the posh private room fragrant and relaxing, but the lighting and decorations were also very elegant. Anyone who came in here would invariably be put in a good mood.
“Hehe! Honorable Mr. Lu, what brings a great divine being like you here? Our humble establishment is honored by your esteemed presence. Please take a seat.”
“The fragrance of this private room is made from grinding high-grade Kirin Wood. It has the effect of calming the mind. Everyone who has experienced the aroma gave it the thumbs up.”
Wang Kang’s introduction gave Song Yu a big shock.
As someone from the military force, she had experienced many things. In this era of Spiritual Energy Renaissance, the energy made many animals mutate, and even plants were not spared.
Some of the plants were filled with poison, and the gasses they released would cause anyone who inhaled it to hallucinate. Some of them were even more lethal than arsenic after being eaten. There was no cure for them.
However, some of them became spiritual medicine that were beneficial to the human body. They could extend one’s lifespan, strengthen one’s body, improve the eyes and strengthen one’s liver. Kirin Wood was one such plant.
As the crown of the tree was similar to the head of the mythical Kirin beast in the ancient books, it thus got its name. The Western Black Iron Aquila loved to build its nest in this tree. And this Western Black Iron Aquila was unassailable by swords and spears, and invulnerable to water and fire. Its pair of black iron-like sharp claws could even tear apart C-class armor.
It could be seen that many cultivators had to be sacrificed, or Great Martial Masters had to take action before anyone could acquire a piece of Kirin Wood.
“You’re really considerate,” Lu Yu said. Wang Kang nodded and bowed obsequiously. “It’s only right. Only this kind of service is worthy of Honorable Mr. Lu.”
Lu Yu said softly, “Alright, stop flattering me. Hurry up and serve the dishes. Do you have any recent special dishes that you can recommend?”
The moment this subject was brought up, Wang Kang’s eyes lit up. He said that there was indeed a special dish recently. As the cost of making it was too high, ordinary guests did not have the luxury of enjoying it. Only a noble person like Lu Yu could enjoy it.
Unknowingly, he flattered Lu Yu again. Song Yu and Qin Yong were speechless with disbelief.
