Chapter 410: No One Can Escape
Outside the tavern, Lu Yu didn't stop, as if carrying a chick, he effortlessly carried Wen Xiu Jie to a nearby abandoned apartment building.
This area was part of Lanling City's old district, so such abandoned buildings were not uncommon.
Lu Yu came here directly because it was daytime, and being here could save him from a lot of unnecessary trouble!
As soon as he arrived inside the abandoned building, several young men holding machetes rushed forward, instantly surrounding Lu Yu, their blades gleaming coldly, terrifying at first glance.
As a powerful family in Lanling City, Wen Xiu Jie naturally had many shady forces under his command; otherwise, solely relying on legitimate business dealings, it's hard to make the business this big!
These youths with machetes were cultivated by Wen Xiu Jie!
These young men were all ruthless desperados who lived by the blade, having been pampered by Wen Xiu Jie until needed; they could kill and commit arson without batting an eye. Wen Xiu Jie used them to strike against his competitors, allowing the Wen Family to attain its current status!
Facing these machete-wielding youths, Lu Yu appeared utterly indifferent, standing motionless, clearly not taking them seriously.
"Kid, let our boss go!"
At this moment, one of the machete-wielding youths shouted, his voice cold but without any overtly aggressive action.
After all, their boss Wen Xiu Jie was still in Lu Yu's grip, and no matter how cruel they were, they dared not act recklessly now!
If anything happened to Wen Xiu Jie, they would truly have no one else to support them!
Indeed, given Lu Yu's skills, he wasn't afraid of these machete-wielding youths; after all, Jin Huanzhong's forty elite disciples died at Lu Yu's hands, posing no threat to him.
His actions were entirely to accommodate Wen Ya!
The bar environment was cramped; if a fight broke out, someone might inevitably harm Wen Ya. Moreover, this tavern was Wen Ya's last memory of her mother, and Lu Yu didn't want that last memory to be destroyed by Wen Xiu Jie, so he chose this way to draw everyone out, ensuring Wen Ya and the tavern's safety!
Besides, Lu Yu had another reason; he didn't plan to let these people leave alive today, so it was better to handle bloody matters here!
Wen Xiu Jie and Tang Haishan's actions caused Wen Ya's mother to succumb to illness and death, making them the culprits behind it. Therefore, in Lu Yu's eyes, these people must die!
"Let your boss go!?"
Upon hearing the words of the machete-wielding youths, Lu Yu revealed a devilish smile and laughed: "No problem!"
With that, Lu Yu suddenly swung his arm, tossing Wen Xiu Jie's lanky body like rubbish!
Bam!
At this moment, Wen Xiu Jie's dry body was flung out, smashing against the dilapidated wall, making a dull sound before hitting the ground hard, spitting a mouthful of blood and instantly turning pale!
"Brother Wen, Brother Wen, are you alright?"
Seeing Wen Xiu Jie spitting blood on the ground, Tang Haishan immediately rushed over, lifting Wen Xiu Jie, showing deep concern!
Tang Haishan's comfort in life largely relied on Wen Xiu Jie; if anything happened to Wen Xiu Jie, he'd be cut off from his source of wealth, hence his deep concern for Wen Xiu Jie!
"Cough, cough!"
After being helped up by Tang Haishan, Wen Xiu Jie coughed violently twice, ignoring the severe pain throughout his body, raised his hand slowly, pointed at Lu Yu, and with a hoarse and mad voice said: "Why are you still standing there? Go and kill him! Kill him, and you can do whatever you want with that jinx Wen Ya!"
His eyes were bloodshot and appeared ferocious!
Hearing this, the group of machete-wielding youths couldn't help but smirk coldly. They had seen Wen Ya's beauty earlier; for them, resistance against a captivating woman was futile. Upon Wen Xiu Jie's order, their eyes toward Lu Yu revealed a chilling murderous intent!
"Kill!"
In an instant, these youths growled, raised their machetes, and charged at Lu Yu, cold determination in their eyes!
Whoosh!
With a sharp sound of cutting wind, one of the youths swung his machete down toward Lu Yu, fast and furious, aiming straight for Lu Yu's vitals without hesitation, showing it wasn't his first time doing such a deed!
Seeing the machete swinging down, Lu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, and with a slight shift of his body, he dodged the incoming strike, deftly grabbed the youth's knife hand, and twisted vigorously!
Crack!
With a crisp sound, the youth's wrist shattered, his machete falling from his grasp!
Seizing the falling machete, Lu Yu instantly stabbed it into the youth's chest!
Thud!
The machete plunged into his chest, the youth's eyes widened; his legs buckled, and he fell to his knees, his head drooping, dead on the spot!
Lu Yu's strike was clean and decisive, as if he'd slaughtered an animal, rather than killed a man!
"The first one!"
Seeing the youth kneeling dead on the ground, Lu Yu spoke calmly, swiftly pulling the machete from the youth's chest, surveying the shocked youths and said: "There's no need for surprise or nerves; today, you will all die, no one will escape!"
Bzzz!
His words stunned everyone present; their faces showed shock!
If Lu Yu had said this earlier, it would've held no threat, but now it was different. He swiftly killed one of their companions, blood dripping from his machete, instilling unprecedented fear in everyone!
"Especially you two!"
Turning slowly, Lu Yu pointed his machete at Wen Xiu Jie and Tang Haishan, and said: "Rest assured, I'll save you two for last, and then we can 'chat slowly'!"
When Lu Yu spoke, blood still dripped from his machete, inducing a soul-rattling shiver!
