NOVEL NEXT Chapter 422: The Tree Wants to Rest, But the Wind Won't Stop
After a brief surprise, Lu Yu looked at the man collapsed at the rooftop's edge, the corner of his mouth slightly lifted, then he spoke casually, "You didn't die from my kick, it seems like you all have some real skills!"
These words were filled with chilliness, as Lu Yu looked down from above, his eyes revealing traces of coldness, as if a bloodthirsty beast gazing upon a lamb awaiting slaughter!
His eyes were full of coldness and indifference!
Just after returning from Lanling City, he was instantly targeted by these people, not only that, but these people had been sneaking behind him!
These people were clearly waiting for the moment to strike, and if he hadn't discovered them early, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
Thus, towards these people, Lu Yu would be incredibly ruthless, showing no mercy at all!
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, the man lying on the ground slightly twitched, then promptly vomited another mouthful of blood from within his mask!
The bright red blood appeared stark in the night, also indicating the severity of the man's injuries!
Seeing the scene before him, the original leader's eyes erupted in a look of extreme shock, knowing they were elite assassins from the Shadow Martial Alliance, each proficient and undoubtedly formidable!
Even so, this companion was severely injured, nearly dying from Lu Yu's kick, which truly surprised him!
Just a simple kick inflicted such a grievous injury, demonstrating the extraordinary power and strength of Lu Yu's kick!
Thinking about this, for a moment, the man's eyes beneath his mask revealed a hint of coldness!
A kick that could severely injure his companion, such strength indicated he was absolutely no match for his opponent!
Thinking about this, at that moment, the leader tightened his grip on the short knife in his hand, then slowly spoke a string of archaic notes. These notes were mournful and deep, like a dense murmur, giving an unclear feeling!
But as soon as this string of archaic notes was spoken, the man beside him nodded sharply, then suddenly exerted force with his legs and charged towards Lu Yu at great speed!
"Overestimating your abilities!"
Seeing the approaching man, Lu Yu said coldly, and was about to make a move, when suddenly the leader acted!
The man produced a ball-sized object in his hand and swiftly hurled it at Lu Yu!
Bang!
As the ball-sized object approached Lu Yu, suddenly there was a dull explosion, and the object instantly detonated, emitting a dazzling white light!
Flashbang?
Seeing the blinding white light, Lu Yu instinctively moved, then quickly distanced himself from the two men!
When Lu Yu turned back after distancing, he saw the two men viciously stabbing their short knives into the chest of their severely injured companion lying on the ground!
With this knife stabbed into the chest, the head of the severely injured man drooped, and he died instantly!
Silencing!
Seeing the men's actions, Lu Yu's heart thumped, and he instantly realized!
These people knew they were outmatched and were now planning to escape!
"Not good!"
Thinking of this, Lu Yu's figure swayed as he prepared to chase, when suddenly the two men exerted force with their legs, leap over the railing, and jumped off the rooftop!
This was the rooftop of the fifteenth floor!
Normally, jumping from here would definitely be fatal!
After jumping off, the two men did not fall freely like ordinary people. Instead, their hands behaved like powerful pincers, grabbing the balcony edge precisely every two floors, swinging to dissipate the falling impact, and descending continuously using this method!
With this method, the two quickly reached the ground, and upon landing, they bent their knees, gathering strength, then propelled forward like an Arrow!
"Trying to run? Not that easy!"
Witnessing this scene, a cold gleam flashed in Lu Yu's eyes, then he swung over the railing and likewise jumped off the rooftop!
Unlike their method, Lu Yu was more brute in descending, grasping the balcony edge every four floors, directly ignoring the step to dissipate the impact. Within seconds, he landed below and charged forward!
Before Lu Yu charged far, he saw a black business car roar, then leap forward and vanish in an instant!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu frowned, eyes revealing a trace of coldness!
The group acted decisively, killing their incapacitated comrade when failing to succeed, and then fleeing instantly. Their descent alone showed they weren't mere members of an Assassination Organization. And within seconds of descending, they had a vehicle to aid their departure, clearly prearranging everything!
These people were extraordinarily professional, incomparable to ordinary black-market forces or organizations, surely backed by a mature and ancient organization!
That peculiar string of notes was the best evidence!
"The tree wants stillness, but the wind does not stop!"
Seeing the scene, Lu Yu spoke coldly, his eyes flickering, then slowly turned and intended to leave.
Buzz!
Just then, his phone buzzed suddenly. He checked and found a message from Luo Lie: I need to talk to you now!
"Luo Lie? Shadow Sword?"
Seeing the message, the corner of Lu Yu's mouth slightly lifted in a cold smile, "Things are getting more interesting!"
Saying this, Lu Yu put away his phone, turned his figure, and gradually disappeared into the darkness!
