Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

183 Suppression

“Then I shall look forward to seeing how your strength compares to that Ying Qu who died in my hands!”

Lu Yu’s eyes flashed with a malicious look. His aura also began expanding at this moment.

Great Dao Heaven Devouring Skill activated, health vitality and strength increased! Following that, Emerald Emperor’s Method was activated and health vitality rose rapidly! Furnace skill activated, and health vitality was converted to strength!

Within a few breaths’ time, a wave of power like a tsunami came surging out, startling Ying Qufeng, Wang Bo and others so much that they backed up repeatedly. The black-clad woman also appeared surprised.

Although in the previous encounter when they joined hands to battle the Red Lotus Inferno Dragon, the strength Lu Yu showed was already comparable to a War General, but when she faced him now as an opponent, she still got a big surprise when she came face to face with this power.

Following this, Lu Yu pressed forward step by step. That raging power could even stir up the domain!

Was this guy a monster? The War General’s domain was like a supra-dimensional strike on a lower dimension. There was no way to make up the gap between the two dimensions by relying on strength alone. Yet Lu Yu actually did just that. He deployed pure strength to make up the gap.

For a moment, the black-clad woman was stunned, so much so that when Lu Yu’s Dragon Blood Battle Saber came slicing over, she only came back to her senses when a ray of saber light slashed in front of her face. She waved her hand to block and a vortex appeared.

The saber light cut straight through it, and an overpowering force burst out. Under this impact, the whole mineral vein resonated with thunderous roars, shattering many chunks of mineral ores.

The black-clad woman’s face changed slightly. This mineral ore vein belonged to their Ying family. They still had to find a way to come back later and she couldn’t afford to have it destroyed now. She must end the battle quickly.

With this in mind, the black-clad woman shouted, “Sky-splitting Slash!”

A vortex formed rapidly in her right hand. It quickly took shape and coalesced into a blade of wind more than ten meters long before shooting out in attack.

“Heavenly Saber’s Method!”

Lu Yu also unleashed his strongest offensive techniques. Coupled with the Star Shifting Steps, the moment he turned into an afterimage, a brutal saber light came slashing out.

Upon collision, the two opponents’ bodies all shuddered at once and were thrown back. The overwhelming impact caused both parties to frown in unison.

The black-clad woman was surprised by Lu Yu’s strength and that a Great Grand Master like him was able to fight her, a War General. Lu Yu was surprised by the strength of the black-clad woman, who was much more powerful than Ying Qu, whom he had killed.

With his current strength, he didn’t have to fight to the death to kill a person of Ying Qu’s ability, but he wasn’t so sure about this black-clad woman.

While Lu Yu was fighting with the black-clad woman, Ying Qufeng was also engaged in a fierce battle with Zhou Zhongzheng and the others on the other side. They exchanged vicious blows.

“Zhou Zhongzheng, you are also an Inspector, and the Ying family treats you well. You ingrate, why did you betray me and betray the Ying family?” Seeing Zhou Zhongzheng unleashing lethal strikes as well, Ying Qu was furious.

“Hoho! Treat me well? Save your sanctimonious words. How revolting! Then you explain to me why you are treating me as a sacrificial pawn!” Zhou Zhongzheng’s eyes turned bloodshot, his killing intent sharp and terrifying.

“The Ying family has nurtured you for so long. It’s time for you to pay the Ying family back,” Ying Qufeng said.

“The Ying Family has indeed nurtured me, but I’ve been working my ass off for them all these years, so the Ying Family and I don’t owe each other anything!”

Faced with Zhou Zhongzheng’s challenge, Ying Qufeng’s face turned red with rage. He had no answer to those accusations, and his complexion gradually turned apoplectic. This guy Zhou Zhongzheng usually flattered him like a dog, yet now, he had the guts to talk to him like this.

This made Ying Qufeng increasingly more incensed. He shouted angrily, “You traitor! If I don’t kill you today, I swear I’m not fit to be human!”

After saying that, the aura of a Great Martial Master exploded. A powerful fist bashed into Zhou Zhongzheng’s face, trying to blast his head off with one punch. Zhou Zhongzheng chose to face it head-on. Deploying the same Great Martial Master’s aura, he unleashed a palm instead to counter the fist.

In the next second, Ying Qufeng screamed in anguish. Zhou Zhongzheng grabbed his fist with one hand. All the force was neutralized and with a fierce twist, the whole arm became a fried twisted dough stick, all mangled and bloody.

Ying Qufeng said with fear, “Zhou Zhongzheng, when did you break through to the Advance Great Martial Master level?”

“Hehe! Even if I didn’t break through, killing a second generation descendant like you who relied on family resources to break through would be as easy as pie.” Zhou Zhongzheng gave a sinister smile. He was like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, revealing its sharp claws and teeth.

Ying Qufeng, who did not believe in bad luck, circulated his true energy and used his other good hand to blast toward Zhou Zhongzheng. However, in the next second, an even more wretched scream rang out as his other arm became twisted as well. Now both his arms were completely crippled!

Zhou Zhongzheng walked step by step towards the fallen Ying Qufeng, showing a cruel smile which scared Ying Qufeng out of his wits. He shouted, “Aunt, save me!”

The black-clad woman who was fighting with Lu Yu couldn’t get out of the battle for the time being. Even if she could get away, she couldn’t be bothered to save this loser.

“Zhou Zhongzheng, Inspector Zhou, I… I was wrong. Give me a chance to redeem myself. I am willing to compensate you.” Ying Qufeng’s face was covered with tears and snot as he kowtowed and begged for forgiveness.

“The only way for you to redeem yourself, is to die!” Zhou Zhongzheng smashed Ying Qufeng’s skull with one clap of his palm.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Zhou Zhongzheng gasped heavily. At first, he felt shock, and then he began laughing maniacally, his expression gradually becoming insane and sinister.

Since he had already broken with the Ying family, there was no way back. In order to survive, he had to fight with the Ying family to the end.

In the other battle, Wang Bo saw Ying Qufeng’s corpse and turned pale with fear. His armor was pierced through by Zhang Yu’s sword, and the sword light coalesced into a flash of light which shot through his chest.

For Zhang Yu, who was about to break through to the peak-level of Great Martial Master any time now, killing Wang Bo was no longer a long and intense battle like it was back then.

The battle ended swiftly. The Ying family, Wang Bo and the patriarchs of the various powerful families of Lunan City could be said to have been killed in a devastating manner, but Zhang Yu’s expression did not relax.

The key to winning this battle was the battle between Lu Yu and the black-clad woman. Even if all the people of the Ying family were wiped out, if the black-clad woman killed Lu Yu, they would still die.

Fortunately, the strength Lu Yu displayed in this battle was overwhelmingly powerful. Even Zhou Zhongzheng and Zhang Yu were incredibly shocked.

It was particularly so for Zhang Yu. He had witnessed Lu Yu and Ying Qu’s battle at that time and how difficult it was. Yet so soon after that battle, Lu Yu had become so strong and unbelievably powerful. He could completely suppress a War General.

Boom! As the power of the two people collided, a huge crack appeared in the mineral ore vein and a massive amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth overflowed. It completely inundated this place. The expressions on Zhou Zhongzheng and Zhang Yu’s face changed drastically at this moment.

“Oh no! With our strength, we can’t absorb such a huge amount of pure spiritual energy completely!” Zhou Zhongzheng shouted, and without hesitation, he was the first to retreat.

Zhang Yu and Zhang Huaian also followed by backing up. They looked towards Lu Yu and the black-clad woman who were both submerged in this flood of spiritual energy with trepidation.

If they did not withdraw in time and still allowed the huge amount of spiritual energy to fill them up, their bodies would definitely explode. Yet Lu Yu and the black-clad woman were seemingly unaffected. They continued fighting fiercely while absorbing the huge amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
