Spare Me, Great Lord!

Wen Zaifou felt that he was extremely wise. When Sakurai Yaeko was planning to commit suicide, he had guessed that she did not want Lu Shu to come and be put in danger.

When he realized that Yu Fuyao had seen the protective magical object, he was not surprised. He knew that Yu Fuyao had a plan from the very beginning.

He was wise. Thus, he had carefully chosen a protective magical object for Sakurai Yaeko. Not only were masters not able to break through, even the owner of the magical object was not able to break free…

If it were not for Wen Zaifou’s move, Sakurai Yaeko might have walked out of the protective barrier of light and died so that Lu Shu would not take a risk.

She was far too foolish. She thought that there would be no need for Lu Shu to risk his life if she died. But Wen Zaifou did not think that this would happen. He felt that if Sakurai Yaeko died, Lu Shu’s rage would be able to destroy everything.

Thus, Wen Zaifou suddenly felt that he was the wisest person there!

A sense of superiority, formed by the fact that he had outsmarted the rest, burst forth…

He liked Sakurai Yaeko very much. He purely admired her.

There were too many schemes and conspiracies among humans. It was not easy for someone to treat you sincerely.

Wen Zaifou felt that the encounter between Lu Shu and Sakurai Yaeko was never Sakurai Yaeko’s blessing. It was Lu Shu’s blessing.

But even he did not know what would happen in the end. The willpower of a king was the hardest thing to predict.

“Just wait for Lu Shu to come, young lady.” Wen Zaifou leisurely smiled. “Even masters don’t stand a chance against him.”

At the next moment, he saw Lu Shu flying over at a low altitude. Even before he arrived, Corpsedog and Concealed Arrow had reached!

The sharp swords flew towards the young master. The young master furrowed his eyebrows. He grabbed Corpsedog and Concealed Arrow with his hands.

This was the first time Lu Shu saw someone stop the swords from the celestial map. In the past, these two swords were invincible!

This was the strength of a master. Lu Shu had not dared to directly attack them. Lu Shu now understood that the strongest person besides the masters was still weaker than a master!

The young master was called Xue Shengyou. Lu Shu had received distress points from him!

Xue Shengyou did not know that Yu Fuyao had already left. He only knew that the execution of this mission had not been perfect. He had committed many mistakes. Lu Shu had arrived, but he was still unable to break through the magical object that protected Sakurai Yaeko.

He had underestimated this magical object. He had also underestimated Wen Zaifou’s determination!

Xue Shengyou wanted to destroy Concealed Arrow and Corpsedog, but he suddenly realized that the swords were much more durable than he had expected.

As a master, he was only able to control them, but not destroy them.

Xue Shengyou did not know that even Lu Shu was not sure about what material the swords were made out of. Lu Shu did not know their origin either.

Suddenly, Xue Shengyou kept the two swords in his sleeve, cutting off Lu Shu’s control of them. He stepped into a void. In an instant, he appeared above Lu Shu.

Lu Shu was only a Rank One. Since he was not able to break the protective magical object, he would get rid of Lu Shu’s ability to fight.

Sakurai Yaeko shouted from the barrier of light, “Be careful!” She wanted to go out and help, but she could not do anything. Even masters were not able to break through the magical object. She would not be able to either.

Wen Zaifou was delighted. He was the decisive factor in this battle. Although he was not able to attack, his magical object had a very strong presence…

Xue Shengyou aimed a punch at Lu Shu’s head. An attack from a master could agitate the world. Lu Shu felt as if ten thousand tons of water was aimed at him. The force was very heavy!

Lu Shu knew that he had to be careful of a master’s ability to appear and disappear at will. However, if he did not experience it for himself, he would never know whether he would be able to win.

In an instant, the strands of the Sparrow Shade formed a sharp net above Lu Shu. Every single strand did not remain still. Instead, they shuttled back and forth. It was as if they would be able to cut through anything.

But at this moment, Lu Shu suddenly realized that the black gloves on Xue Shengyou’s hands were not ordinary items. When Xue Shengyou’s hands came into contact with the Sparrow Shade, there was a loud crash. Even the air had been distorted.

The civilians in Hakodate were shocked by this sound. They looked at Hakodate Mountain, but it was hard to determine what was happening.

Then, they saw a person fall from the sky. The west face of Hakodate Mountain instantly collapsed. Large stones rolled down the mountain. A portion of the mountain had been destroyed!

What power was this? How strong was the person who had descended? He was even able to turn stones into powder!

The Sparrow Shade weakly floated down from the sky. It was as if gray rain had fallen. Xue Shengyou stood in the air. He was silent. He took off the black glove on his right hand. His arm was bleeding.

Ever since he had become a master, it had been a long time since Xue Shengyou was injured! Furthermore, he realized that although Lu Shu was heavily injured from this attack, the Sparrow Shade had destroyed one of Xue Shengyou’s core weapons. It was not a loss!

Xue Shengyou did not know what Yu Fuyao was planning. Yu Fuyao did not want Lu Shu to know the truth. She even concealed the truth from her own ally. Thus, Xue Shengyou probably did not know that Yu Fuyao did not want Lu Shu dead!

“Those with great reputation have real learning.” Xue Shengyou looked at the remains of the mountain. “No wonder you are called the strongest person besides the masters. But it is a pity.”

Sakurai Yaeko blankly looked at the remains of the mountain. When Lu Shu fell, her heart shattered.

Suddenly, someone coughed from the remains. “The fight isn’t over. Don’t be quick to spout nonsense. No matter whether it is you, or the person controlling you, everyone who wants to kill her will all die!”

Sakurai Yaeko, who was inside the barrier of light, cried profusely.

When one said that they were willing to die for love, it was often an empty promise. Everyone knew that it would never be true.

But Sakurai Yaeko was grateful for this era. She could use her life to prove something. If it was for Lu Shu, she was willing to give up even her life.

She did not want anything in return. But when Lu Shu said this, Sakurai Yaeko felt that even if she died, she would not regret it.

But when Xue Shengyou heard this, he did not look down. Instead, he looked at the sky in shock. Thunderclouds were gathering overhead!

This was… lightning!

Masters were no strangers to the lightning, as it was one of the most memorable things for every master.

Wen Zaifou, who was in the sky, was dumbfounded as well. Although he felt that Lu Shu would not be troubled by a master who had just advanced, he did not think that it would be this easy for Lu Shu to advance to the master realm.

The problem was, Wen Zaifou did not care whether Lu Shu was going to advance to the master realm. He felt that it was only a matter of time before Lu Shu would advance to the master realm.

He did not care about the outcome of the battle either. After all, Lu Shu was definitely able to win. This was Wen Zaifou’s strong trust in Lu Shu.

He did not care about all these.

What Wen Zaifou cared about was who would be struck by lightning first. It would definitely be him, who was flying high in the sky!

Wen Zaifou knew the troublesome quality of the lightning. It did not care about who you were. It did not care about who had brought about the lightning either. It would strike anything in its sight!
