Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

Chapter 136 - 136 Trumped-up Charges



136 Trumped-up Charges

“Hahaha! It seems that Miss Song is really smart and guessed it immediately. Yes, I may as well tell you. The City Lord has gone to look for Lu Yu.”

“A Great Grand Master visiting him in person. This is such a great honor. I believe Lu Yu can consider himself as having a worthy death.”

Qin Cheng revealed their intentions and said with a hearty laugh, “Your Central Dojo and the 4th squadron can’t save yourselves anymore. You should have thought about this before. This is Lunan City, the Honorable City Lord’s territory. This is not a place where you can make trouble.”

“Long live the Honorable City Lord!”

The various patriarchs of the powerful families chanted loudly, with uplifted morale.

It wouldn’t take long for that abominable Lu Yu to be eradicated, and Lunan City would return to the old order. They could then continue to lord over everyone in Lunan City.

During this period, things were very hard for them, and at this moment, they all spoke out in mockery.

“Hahaha… Just by himself, Lu Yu wants to turn the world upside down in Lunan City. He is a bit too naive in the end.”

“This Lu Yu dared to make an enemy of the Honorable City Lord. His death won’t be regretted. When the time comes, I want to eat a piece of his flesh.”

“And me, haha! I want to use his head to make wine!”

The body of a person at the Grand Master level, and one with such a flourishing health vitality too, was considered a veritable treasure trove. Even his corpse was very beneficial. They might not have the guts to challenge a living Grand Master, but a dead one, that was a different story.

Song Yu said with a scornful sneer, “You guys are so confident that you can defeat Lu Yu?”

Yue Buran gave a disdainful snort and said, “In front of a Great Grand Master, even if he’s a Grand Master, he can’t even stir up a ripple.”

The difference between a Great Grand Master and a Grand Master was like heaven and earth. The gap between the two realms is immensely huge.

As everyone knew, after one broke through to the Great Grand Master realm, he would be considered the federal government’s true powerful expert. He was qualified to be exempted from all the tests, and the federal government could confer a title on him, making him a federal government official.

The annual salary alone was up to 30 million federal coins, not to mention other benefits and subsidies.

“It seems that you guys are so confident that Lu Yu will die. Then I will make a bet. We will stay here and wait to see who is the final winner. If I lose, all the treasures on my body will be yours. How about that?”

Song Yu looked at Qin Cheng with a sinister smile. Looking at Qin Cheng’s glittering eyes and his hesitation to make a decision, she snickered and asked, “What? You don’t have the guts?”

Just as Qin Cheng was full of suspicion about Song Yu’s calm demeanor and wondering whether things would have a turnaround, Yue Buran and the others spoke up.

“Looks like you have blind confidence in Lu Yu. Unfortunately, this blind confidence will soon be crushed in front of your eyes. I am really looking forward to seeing your expression at that point.”

“Advisor Qin, there’s no harm in agreeing to her bet. I just don’t believe that Lu Yu can defy the heavens!”

Qin Cheng began to waver. After a moment, with a hint of the playful look of a cat taunting with a rat, he said, “Alright, Miss Song. I’ll make you, a low-class prisoner, lose in a convincing manner.”

Anyway, it was impossible for the people from the Central Dojo and the 4th squadron to leave this place alive from under his nose, and Lu Yu was definitely not Yan Hong’s match.

He would simply treat it as a game. Not only could he witness Lu Yu’s death, but he could also get the treasures on Song Yu. It was equivalent to killing two birds with one stone.

At this moment, the news that Yan Hong went to look for Lu Yu spread like wild fire. The entire Lunan City was watching the Central Dojo with riveted attention, waiting for that eye-catching battle.

“My goodness! So the City Lord wants his first battle to be the decisive battle, to eliminate Lu Yu in one shot.”

“At that point, a big battle will erupt. I just do not know whether Lu Yu can still continue to defy the odds all the way to defeat Yan Hong.”

“It will be tough. He is a Great Grand Master. How can Lu Yu be a match for him? That’s why I say, the real ruler of this Lunan City is still Yan Hong.”

“A mere Lu Yu wants to shake up the structure of Lunan City. That is simply a fool’s dream.”

As the saying goes, everyone kicks a man who is down. The cultivators of Lunan City were already laughing at Lu Yu’s naive overestimation of his own capabilities.

The crowd was speculating. Would Lu Yu escape? They paid such close attention to every move at the Central Dojo that even the entry and exit of a fly did not escape their eyes.

“The Honorable City Lord hereby declares that the rebellious miscreant, Lu Yu, is to be arrested for the crime against humankind. Everyone is free to punish him!”

The City Lord’s Office, who had been silent for a long time, also issued a notice at this point. The crime against humankind was the most serious crime under the federal government’s laws. It referred to the crime of harming the interests of the human race, which was now pinned on Lu Yu.

Just as the crowd was discussing heatedly, a terrifying aura, like a shocking tidal wave, swept over the entire Lunan City. It caused all the cultivators to tremble in fear right down to their souls, with extreme terror and unease.

Looking at the majestic Yan Hong, who resembled a god from heaven, rushing to the Central Dojo, everyone had a shocked expression on their faces.

This was the aura of the Great Grand Master. This aura alone was sufficient to make those cultivators below the Great Grand Master level balk at engaging in battle with him, so how could Lu Yu still fight him?

At this moment, Yan Hong had not only broken through to the Great Grand Master realm, but the original appearance of a sixty-year-old aged man had also turned into one of a middle-aged man in his forties. The health vitality in his whole body was very robust. Even the natural overflow of his health vitality gave off an extremely frightening sense of oppression.

It could be said that Yan Hong was extremely proud of his revitalization. With a kind of condescending gaze overlooking all things, he descended on the Central Dojo.

“Here he comes, here he comes! Yan Hong has finally arrived at the Central Dojo. This time, there’s bound to be a good show.” All the cultivators of Lunan City were watching the development at the Central Dojo with fixed eyes.

Yan Hong hovered in the air, his eyes shining with an overbearing sharpness and shouted, “Lu Yu, do you know your crime?”

The sound wave turned into a layer of ripples that rushed to the Central Dojo, causing the entire dojo to shake. This was not a sound wave attack, but the natural effect caused by the impact of the aura of the Great Grand Master.

Lu Yu simply gave a nonchalant wave of his hand and the whole Central Dojo stabilized.

Then, he walked out and looked up at the sky. Gazing at the incredibly arrogant Yan Hong, looking down on Lu Yu as if he was a god from heaven, Lu Yu chuckled softly. “My dear City Lord, I wonder what crime are you charging me with?”

“Hmph! For your own greedy self-interests, you destroyed the four big dojos, causing the backbone of my Lunan City’s defense against the Fearsome Beasts to suffer a fatal blow, thereby jeopardizing the safety of Lunan City.”

“Blatant disregard for the law, committing atrocities in Lunan City. Such crimes can not be forgiven. I have applied to the federal government to arrest you for crimes against humankind.”

Yan Hong counted Lu Yu’s criminal acts one by one and sternly reprimanded him, his voice resonating in the entire Lunan City.

“Haha… Who would have thought that I would one day be charged with crimes against humankind.”

Lu Yu shook his head, and made no attempt to hide his sarcastic expression. Looking at Yan Hong, his expression suddenly became stern. “That way I see it, it is most appropriate to pin this crime on you and the four big dojos. You guys are the real scourge of humankind, in fact one of the biggest scourges!”

“Lu Yu, you are maligning people without basis. This adds another crime to your name. I think you can be executed on the spot.” Yan Hong put his hands behind his back and said slowly, “However, this City Lord is merciful and can give you another chance.”
