Hu Bu’er, who had just stood up and returned to the hallway, had not had time to return to his senses before he was enveloped by the Illusionary Realm Kingdom.
After sensing that he had landed in an unfamiliar space, Hu Bu’er immediately became alert in his mind.
Hu Bu’er knew nothing about the space inside this Illusionary Realm Kingdom before his eyes. He assumed that Lu Yu had used some kind of peculiar mechanism to bring him to an unknown place.
“You think you can defeat me by changing the location?”
“No matter who you are, you have really underestimated me!”
The moment Hu Bu’er finished speaking, he triggered a conscious thought and displayed his aura in its entirety.
When Lu Yu felt Hu Bu’er’s aura, he did not show any hint of shock.
Long before entering the Southern Seas Hotel, Lu Yu had already learned through the information given by Wang Hu that the vice captain of the Hu family’s bodyguard team was a cultivator at the level of Grade 4 War General.
So when Hu Bu’er displayed his full strength, it simply increased the desire to fight in Lu Yu’s heart.
Right now, Lu Yu had just broken through to the War General level. What he needed was an opponent to fight with, so that he could figure out his current strength through actual combat.
And at this point, both of them had entered the Illusionary Realm Kingdom. Lu Yu decided to draw out the Blood Emperor Battle Saber to replace the A-class long saber in his hand.
Lu Yu said with a smile as he watched Hu Bu’er approaching step by step, “A Grade 4 War General. The vice captain of the Hu family’s bodyguard team certainly knows how to conceal himself!”
Hu Bu’er only shook his head disdainfully after hearing Lu Yu’s words.
“Hmph! Now that you know my strength, I’ll give you a chance now!”
“If you surrender and admit your mistake now, I can spare your life.” After saying that, Hu Bu’er drew out his weapon from his back and stared fixedly at Lu Yu, waiting for Lu Yu’s answer.
After listening to Hu Bu’er telling him to surrender, Lu Yu laughed scornfully and replied slowly, ‘You may have overestimated yourself. You are just a Grade 4 War General, that’s all!”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, he rushed towards Hu Bu’er with his Blood Emperor Battle Saber, intending to use real actions to demonstrate his attitude.
Hu Bu’er laughed disdainfully as he watched Lu Yu charging over with his saber.
“Let me, Hu Bu’er, see where you, a mere Grade 1 War General, get your confidence from!”
Hu Bu’er gave a scornful snort and also swung his own longsword to charge at
Lu Yu head-on.
The two figures collided violently, and the saber and sword in their hands clashed explosively, erupting with showers of sparks.
Clang!
As the metallic buzzing sound reverberated, Hu Bu’er felt a huge force sweeping over. Lu Yu’s Blood Emperor Battle Saber had collided on the longsword in his hand, creating a crack on its blade!
Looking at the chipped edge on the blade of the A-class longsword in his hand, Hu Bu’er could not help feeling stunned momentarily.
“An S-class weapon?”
“Hahaha! Brat, you have certainly brought me this gift on a silver platter!”
Hu Bu’er looked greedily at the Blood Emperor Battle Saber in Lu Yu’s hand, and a sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
Although he was the vice captain of the Hu family’s bodyguard team, the weapons he used were only of A-class.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to have an S-class weapon, but he simply didn’t have the funds…
What was more, the Hu family would never allocate the precious S-class weapons to him for free, especially to an outsider like him.
And because of this, Hu Bu’er was now coveting the Blood Emperor Battle Saber in Lu Yu’s hand!
Seeing that Hu Bu’er was staring at his Blood Emperor Battle Saber, Lu Yu laughed scornfully.
“You want my battle saber? That depends on whether you are qualified to wield
“Hmph! You are just a Grade 1 War General. Allow me to demonstrate to you the power of a Grade 4 War General!”
Hu Bu’er said disdainfully as he went charging at Lu Yu again with the longsword in his hand.
Looking at the onrushing Hu Bu’er, Lu Yu also did not want to waste any more time on this exercise. His figure flashed by, together with the Blood Emperor Battle Saber in his hand.
In the next second, Lu Yu reappeared behind Hu Bu’er and he swung his saber down directly!
Hu Bu’er only felt a rush of cool air blowing past the back of his head, and then he felt his whole world tumbling and turning upside down.
Immediately after that, Hu Bu’er saw his own body, which had already lost its head, fall to the ground with a loud crash.
After getting rid of Hu Bu’er, Lu Yu couldn’t help but shake his head.
After such a quick solution to the battle, Lu Yu had a greater understanding of his current strength.
With his current ability, even if he encountered a Grade 4 War General, he could defeat him easily.
As for those War Generals above Grade 4, he would need to find another opportunity to test himself in order to find out.
Lu Yu put away the Blood Emperor Battle Saber, withdrew the Illusionary Realm Kingdom and came to the end of the hallway.
Here, at the end of the hallway, he came face to face with a big door made of A-class metal.
“The Hu family has really invested very heavily to protect this treasure. Even this door is fabricated using A-class metal…”
As Lu Yu muttered enviously, he whipped out his Blood Emperor Battle Saber again and sliced through this big door made of A-class metal effortlessly with one strike!
Boom!
The big, heavy door made of pure metal came crashing down to the ground, revealing the secret vault beyond.
Lu Yu walked into the secret vault in big strides. Once inside, he became deeply mesmerized by the things stored inside.
“Hahaha! So many treasures. Hu family, oh Hu family! It seems that even the heavens want me, Lu Yu, to exact a vicious revenge on you!”
He saw all sorts of dazzling treasures displayed in that not-so-big secret vault.
There were boxes of beast meat from S-class monsters, several precious A-class weapons, and some extremely precious special mineral ores.
Seeing all these things, Lu Yu began laughing gleefully.
Then with a wave of his hand, he swept all the contents in the entire secret vault into his interspatial ring.
Just as Lu Yu was raiding the contents of the secret vault with impunity, the Southern Seas Hotel was already in complete turmoil.
Several guards had found the colleagues who had passed out in the security surveillance room and immediately reported the matter to the Hu family.
At the same time, they also found that they had lost all contact with the members of the Hu family’s bodyguard team, who were supposed to be guarding the secret vault on the basement level 1.
After discovering all these unusual happenings, a group of security guards from the Southern Seas Hotel hastily gathered and sealed all the ingress and egress points to the whole Southern Seas Hotel, both externally and internally.
As for the things happening outside, Lu Yu was completely unaware as he gleefully looted all the valuable things in the secret vault with absolute impunity.
After Lu Yu had searched the whole secret vault thoroughly, he suddenly became suspicious.
Within the entire secret vault, although those rare mineral ores and A-class weapons were valuable enough, they were surely not sufficient in value to warrant deploying a cultivator at the War General level to guard them. “Wait a minute. There seems to be something odd with the floor of this secret vault?”
Just as Lu Yu paced back and forth doubtfully, listening to the sound of his own footsteps, he began to feel something was odd.
He was surprised to find that his footsteps seemed to sound a little more hollow than normal..
