Chapter 262: Getting Assassinated Again
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Soon, one whole day had passed, and the sky turned dark quickly.
As night fell, Lu Yu accompanied Giovanna and sat on the sofa before turning on the TV.
The family of four then gathered in front of the TV, talking and laughing as they watched TV.
However, just when the family of four were deeply engrossed in the TV program, the whole villa was suddenly plunged into darkness!
“Huh? Why is there a blackout, Dad?”
In the darkness, Lu Shan asked with a puzzled look as he turned to Lu Yu beside him.
Lu Yu did not answer Lu Shan however. His eyes were staring fixedly in a direction in the darkness.
In the direction that Lu Yu was watching, several figures dressed in all black were sneaking towards the family of four.
These figures were none other than the Shadow Guards sent by the Hu family to assassinate Lu Yu!
Lu Yu looked at the several figures in the darkness. An icy glint flashed across his eyes and a killing intent slowly coalesced in his body.
If these Shadow Guards were just gunning for him alone, he could let it pass. However, looking at the way these Shadow Guards behave, it was clear that they did not simply want to get rid of Lu Yu.
They were obviously planning to get rid of Giovanna and the rest of his family!
In the darkness, Giovanna could also sense the approaching danger, and she hurriedly grabbed Lu Yu’s arm, who was beside her.
“Old Lu…
“It’s okay. Don’t worry. With me here, they won’t be able to hurt you, Shan’er or Shui’er!”
Before Giovanna could finish speaking. Lu Yu patted her hand and tried to reassure her.
“Shan’er, protect your mother and sister well later!”
Lu Yu turned his head to Lu Shan by his side and barked out his instruction.
Then, with a flash of his body, Lu Yu dashed straight in the direction of those
Shadow Gnardq in the darkness
The Shadow Guards also vaguely saw the figure of Lu Yu rushing towards them and hastily drew the scimitar at their waist.
“Not good. He discovered our presence. Move fast, and end this battle quickly!”
The leader of the Shadow Guards gave a low shout. Wielding the scimitar in his hand, he went slashing towards Lu Yu who was charging in their direction.
Several other Shadow Guards heard his order and also slashed out at Lu Yu with their scimitars.
Surrounded by a group of attacking Shadow Guards, Lu Yu did not dodge, but activated his techniques.
In this darkness, Lu Yu was like a flying swallow, his body darting back and forth nimbly between flashes of dazzling blade light.
The group of Shadow Guards could clearly feel the scimitars in their hands slashing through empty air, never once touching Lu Yu’s body.
“You persistent, relentless Shadow Guards. Since you have the guts to come here, then be prepared to stay here!” Lu Yu said in an icy tone.
As he drew out the Blood Emperor Battle Saber, with a big wave of his hand, he also activated his Illusionary Realm Kingdom.
Before the Shadow Guards had time to react, they were dragged into the illusionary realm straightaway.
Within the Illusionary Realm Kingdom, several Shadow Guards only felt a burst of light before their eyes, and Lu Yu then swung the Blood Emperor Battle Saber and slashed towards those people.
The eyes of the leader of the Shadow Guard widened. He hurriedly swung the scimitar in his hand in a blocking maneuver in front of his body.
At the same time, this Shadow Guard leader also circulated the force in his body.
Lu Yu could clearly feel the Shadow Guard leader was a Grade 9 Great Grand Master cultivator just like him!
“Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Your Hu family is really investing a huge sum this time!”
“In order to finish me off, they actually spared no expense to send out a Grade
9 Great Grand Master assassin.”
Lu Yu’s words rang out at the same time as the Blood Emperor Battle Saber in Lu Yu’s hand collided with the scimitar in the Shadow Guard’s hand.
Clang!
A metallic buzzing sound echoed out. Though similarly a Grade 9 Great Grand Master himself, the scimitar in the Shadow Guard’s hand shattered in response to the collision.
Looking at this scene, a feeling of astonishment swept over the Shadow Guard’s heart once again.
The other Shadow Guards also watched this scene unfold with a similar feeling of astonishment.
However, as assassins, they very quickly reacted in accordance with their professional instincts. They all swung the scimitars in their hands and charged at Lu Yu.
It had to be said that in order to completely get rid of Lu Yu, the Hu family had really spared no expenses this time.
They dispatched six Shadow Guards of the Grade 9 Grand Master realm along with a Shadow Guard of Grade 9 Great Grand Master level!
With this lineup, if the opponent was just an ordinary Grade 9 Great Grand Master, the one who would end up dead would definitely be the opponent.
Unfortunately, their opponent was Lu Yu!
Although Lu Yu’s cultivation level was at Grade 9 Great Grand Master, his strength was already comparable to a powerful expert at the War General realm!
Furthermore, Lu Yu also had the Illusionary Realm Kingdom, and various other means.
Lu Yu looked at the six Shadow Guards charging towards him, and he positioned the Blood Emperor Battle Saber before his body to block them.
After blocking the scimitars of three front-most Shadow Guards with the Blood Emperor Battle Saber, Lu Yu tapped his foot on the floor. He leaped up and effortlessly evaded the next three scimitars attacking from behind the first three.
However, these well-trained Shadow Guards did not give up the pursuit. The scimitars in their hands swung upward and slashed at Lu Yu, who was suspended mid-air.
“The Hu family will be heartbroken if I kill you guys, right?”
Lu Yu looked at the six scimitars charging at him from below and gave an evil smile.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yu unleashed his mental strength power.
With the release of Lu Yu’s boundless mental strength power, the bodies of the six Shadow Guards froze momentarily, and the scimitars in their hands stopped in mid-air.
The next second, Lu Yu swung his saber and chopped down. A familiar burst of blood-red saber light radiated outward!
With the flash of the saber light, the bodies of the six Shadow Guards lost their heads and collapsed to the ground heavily with a dull thud.
Thud…
Watching the six Shadow Guards he had brought die tragically under Lu Yu’s saber, that Shadow Guard at the Grade 9 Great Grand Master level panicked.
Initially, he thought that just the six Grade 9 Grand Masters and himself would be sufficient to erase Lu Yu from this world easily.
Yet, now it seemed that they were not even able to hurt a single hair on Lu Yu, much less get rid of Lu Yu completely!
Seeing that it was no longer possible to assassinate Lu Yu, the Shadow Guard at the Grade 9 Great Grand Master level turned around and tried to flee.
However, now that he was trapped in the Illusionary Realm Kingdom, there was no way he could escape!
“What kind of place do you think my house is? You think you can come and go whenever you want?” Lu Yu looked at the Shadow Guard leader’s back profile and couldn’t resist saying in an icy tone, “Since you’re already here, then you will jolly well stay here!”
As Lu Yu spoke, he lifted the Blood Emperor Battle Saber, the killing intent in his eyes growing stronger and stronger.
Obviously, Lu Yu was now thoroughly incensed at the thought that the Shadow Guards intended to kill his family as well as Lu Yu.
When he felt Lu Yu’s killing intent getting increasingly stronger behind him, the Shadow Guard leader gritted his teeth.
“Lu Yu, don’t you forget. I’m also a Grade 9 Great Grand Master. It’s still not certain whether you can force me to stay here!” the Shadow Guard leader roared out.
With his palms pressed together, he began circulating the health vitality within his body.
“Blood Igniting Secret Technique!”
In an instant, the Shadow Guard leader’s health vitality burned violently, and the aura he gave off burst through the realm of Great Grand Master and reached the level of a War General.
“Lu Yu, meet your Maker!”
With the help of the secret technique to reach the War General’s level, the Shadow Guard leader swung his fists and charged towards Lu Yu!
