Chapter 345: Unofficial Ruler (2/2)

Wen Sansi shook his head. “With their abilities, those two aren’t capable of that.”

Mira frowned. Yan Wujiu was way too cruel, to the extent where even she felt a chill crawl down her spine from witnessing his actions.

Within a room in San Dios, Yan Feng’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared at his screen. “Escape, Father! Escape, and we’ll still have a chance to take revenge!”

Boom!

The sea of fire exploded in space, and Yan Wujiu forced Huo Qingshan and Xueshan Auna back with a single attack. He looked behind himself with a regret expression and then fled. He would not continue this battle, for the power that he had gained from destroying Firesmelt Planet would not last for much longer. It was just a planet, after all, and all it could do was supply him with enough energy to contend against two experts. Escaping, however, would not be difficult.

All of a sudden, something flashed through the void at extreme speed. Even with Yan Wujiu’s abilities, he couldn’t evade it. An attack sliced through his abdomen, and his flaming sword crumbled, disintegrating into nothingness.

The sudden reversal shocked quite a few people watching. Yan Wujiu let out a miserable cry as the terrifying flames that had formed with the help of Firesmelt Planet quickly died down. He glared in front of him and saw a girl walking out of the void, eyeing him coldly.

Upon seeing her, many felt surprised. It was Wendy Yushan.

On San Dios, Puyu’s eyes grew large; Wendy Yushan had returned.

Wen Sansi was bewildered as well, not having expected her to appear at such a time.

Lu Yin himself was stupefied as well, but his emotions soon became that of delight. The girl’s timing was impeccable, but would she be able to stop Yan Wujiu? The disparity between them in terms of power levels was huge, but if she worked together with Huo Qingshan and Xueshan Auna, it might be possible for them to kill him.

Waves of heat burned through space. Yan Wujiu glared venomously at Wendy Yushan. “It’s you, bitch? You wanna die?”

Wendy Yushan’s eyes remained cold the entire time. “Your power is already weakening. Your time is up, Yan Wujiu.”

“I’ll at least take you down with me!” Yan Wujiu howled as he charged towards Wendy Yushan while wielding his broken blade.

With her battle power, Wendy Yushan was not capable of contending against Yan Wujiu. After all, Yan Wujiu’s power level was over 150,000. However, Huo Qingshan and Xueshan Auna wouldn’t let him get away again. Since Wendy Yushan’s sudden attack had destroyed Yan Wujiu’s boosted flames, the two could now restrain him.

Right now, Yan Wujiu was even weaker than his state at the beginning of the battle, and he soon found himself at a disadvantage. Before long, he was gravely injured, and his blood was scattered across space.

Nobody pitied him. Although the Great Yu Empire had started a war against Firesmelt Planet, they had never planned to commit genocide against its people. However, Yan Wujiu had destroyed the entire planet purely for his own benefit, causing the deaths of countless people. The amount of damage that he’d caused far exceeded that of the Great Yu Empire.

Under the combined attacks of fire, ice, and Wendy Yushan’s Ten Thousand Swords as One, Yan Wujiu’s blood leaked out into outer space, and he died. A Hunter with a power level of over 150,000 had just died so simply under the gazes of numerous people.

For the Innerverse, the death of a single Hunter wasn’t anything special. However, the same could not be said for the Outerverse. Each Weave only had a small number of Hunters, and there were far fewer with power levels over 150,000.

The confirmation of Yan Wujiu’s death meant that no one in the Frostwave Weave would be able to contend against the Great Yu Empire anymore It was now certain that the Great Yu Empire would be able to unify the Frostwave Weave.

In East San Dios, Lu Yin let out a sigh of relief and unclenched his fists. There were no longer any opponents standing against him in the Frostwave Weave.

“The Great Yu Empire has now taken over the Frostwave Weave! That makes you the unofficial ruler of the Frostwave Weave. Congratulations, Seventh Bro!” the Ghost Monkey exclaimed in excitement.

Lu Yin’s lips curved up. Unofficial ruler? That sounded pretty good. The person who should rule the Weave was Wendy Yushan, but given her cultivation-obsessed personality, it was impossible for her to establish any real power. That meant that he would hold the true authority.

Behind him, Barley bowed. “Congratulations, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Yin waved him away. “I’ll need your help in dealing with the aftermath. I’m sure you know what’ll need to be checked at the three military planets that were sealed off.”

Barley hastily answered, “Of course, sir. Even if Firesmelt Planet wasn’t actually working with the Neohuman Alliance, they still developed weapons forbidden by the Human Domain. Their condemnation is guaranteed.”

Lu Yin nodded in satisfaction.

Elsewhere, Wen Sansi turned his screen off and smiled. “It’s getting more and more exciting every time. Lu Yin really doesn’t disappoint. The fact that he has gained control of the Frostwave Weave is definitely not good news for quite a lot of people.” He glanced over at Mira and then asked, “Do you think that he’ll stretch his hand out towards other Weaves?”

Mira thought it over and seriously answered, “Yes.”

Wen Sansi burst into a fit of laughter. “What an ambitious guy!”

His gadget suddenly beeped, and Wen Sansi glanced at it. “Puyu’s looking for me. He’s saying that Lu Yin overstepped his authority in the Outerverse Youth Council to meddle in a Weave’s internal issues and that he started a war for his own benefit.”

“Puyu is even more ambitious than Lu Yin. Even when Wendy Yushan was around, he essentially wielded all of the power of East San Dios. Although there’s no real evidence, the deaths of the other Councilors from East San Dios might be related to him,” Mira said.

Wen Sansi nodded. “He needs to be stopped, but Lu Yin needs to learn his place as well. One can have ambition, but not too much. He might get out of control as a result of this matter.” He then rapped his fingers against the table. A while later, he told Mira, “Let Puyu investigate for now. You can supervise him and allow Lu Yin to suffer a little, but don’t let Puyu win.”

Mira politely acknowledged his order and left.
