When the escaping child saw Lu Yu, his eyes lit up and he shouted, “Big Brother, save me! These guys said that our Wild Wolf Sect was destroyed. We must teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful our Wild Wolf Sect is.”
When the few people behind heard the child’s words, their speed slowed down, and they were a little uncertain. They were wondering if the news of the Wild Wolf Sect being destroyed was fake.
Then, they carefully observed Lu Yu and realized that Lu Yu was only a teenager. Even if he was really from the Wild Wolf Sect, he was not that powerful.
The few of them looked at each other and then moved closer to Lu Yu and the child. They held knives that were stained with unknown stains and shouted, “So what if he’s from the Wild Wolf Sect? Kill him as well!”
When Lu Yu saw that they were chasing after the child and were coming towards him, he intended to avoid them. He did not expect that the child would actually say that he was a member of the Wild Wolf Sect and drag him down into this mess.
The child’s body was emitting a foul smell, his skin and clothes were dyed black. When the child running towards Lu Yu, he wanted to slap the child away.
Unfortunately, the few people chasing after the child seemed to see him as the child’s accomplice. They were after him as well.
Lu Yu looked around and picked up a stick that was leaning against the wall. He did not want to touch their knife and clothes that were covered with unknown objects.
The stick hit the child’s stomach and sent him flying. The child lay on the ground motionlessly.
Lu Yu hated trouble, especially this kind of meaningless trouble.
When they saw Lu Yu send the child flying, they felt that something was wrong. However, they did not think too much and rushed over with knives.
In their eyes, Lu Yu, who only held a wooden stick, was definitely not their opponent.
The strength of these people was average. They were probably martial art
cultivators at the second level of the body refining realm. If not for the unknown black stains on their swords and bodies, Lu Yu would have already beaten them to the ground with his hands.
Lu Yu hit the wrists of the three people holding the swords with the stick. The extremely intimidating swords in their hands fell. The people realized that Lu Yu was not easy to deal with.
They did not even dare to say anything harsh, so they abandoned the knives and turned around to escape.
Lu Yu was too lazy to chase after them. He threw away the wooden stick and walked towards the direction of Ji Min Hall.
He had only taken a few steps when he realized that child, Little Tail behind him. He deliberately walked into an alley.
When Little Tail saw that Lu Yu had turned into an alley and disappeared into the crowd, he hurriedly chased after Lu Yu. When he ran into the alley but did not find Lu Yu, he was a little disappointed.
“Why are you following me?” Lu Yu appeared at the entrance of the alley and blocked Little Tail’s path.
“I know you.” Little Tail said.
Lu Yu rolled his eyes. “It’s none of my business that you know me. I don’t know you. Don’t follow me. Otherwise, I won’t just hit you with a stick only!”
After saying that, Lu Yu turned around and left. He did not want to know anything about Little Tail at all. He only wanted to cultivate quietly. When he had enough strength, he would expose Yang Xiu and receive the grand prize.
Seeing that Lu Yu turned around and left without any hesitation, Little Tail panicked and hurriedly chased after him. “I know you. You used to be a beggar like me in the Black Water Gutter. Half a month ago, you were taken away by the Han Residence.”
“You’re from the Han Residence. You must really want to know about the mysterious person behind the Wild Wolf Sect, Fierce Tiger Sect, and Bloody Blade Sect. I once accidentally bumped into the mysterious person looking for the chiefs of the three sects. I know who the mysterious person is!”
Lu Yu suddenly turned his head. Seeing that Little Tail was about to bump into him, he quickly stepped to the right. Little Tail stopped abruptly and fell to the ground.
“I don’t want to know who the mysterious person is. Don’t tell me.”
Seeing the child get up, Lu Yu added, “Don’t come near me.”
Little Tail was very puzzled. The people of the Han Residence were obviously looking for the mysterious person everywhere. Why did Lu Yu refuse to know the clues of the mysterious person?
“Don’t you know that the Han Residence will give you a big reward for finding the mysterious person?”
“I know, but I don’t want it.” Lu Yu ignored Little Tail and walked out of the alley.
“The mysterious person is from the Han Residence. I don’t know his name, but I can recognize him.”
Lu Yu stopped in his tracks. He looked a little helpless. What was the point? Why was he forcing himself?
Lu Yu did not think that this kid would be able to recognize Yang Xiu. He was hesitating. Should he kill the kid? This kid’s existence was a huge threat. Whether it was Yang Xiu found out that Lu Yu knew he was the mastermind from this kid, or Butler Zhang found out that Lu Yu was unwilling to tell him the truth, both situations were not good to Lu Yu.
After hesitating for a long time, Lu Yu still could not bring himself to do it. Although he was annoyed by the fact that Little Tail had caused trouble to him, he could not do such thing to a child.
After a long time, Lu Yu said helplessly, “Come with me! But I’m warning you, before I give you permission, don’t tell anyone about the mysterious person. No matter who it is.”
“Once I know that you have told others, you should know the consequences. I don’t need to tell you.”
“Okay.” Little Tail smiled happily and promised, “I will definitely not tell anyone else. I have only told you about this. I have never told anyone else.”
