Chapter 1208 - 1207: A Long Talk

Watching Belmont III leave with the members of the Assassin Alliance, Lu Yu stood in place, silent for a long time.

The words Belmont III just said really stirred up a ripple within his heart; he hadn't truly thought about where to go after his revenge.

For the past five years, Lu Yu's every thought day and night had been consumed by the sea of blood vengeance on him. He hadn't thought much about anything else.

Now, with Belmont III bringing up such things, it indeed left Lu Yu feeling a bit lost.

Five years ago, Lu Yu genuinely liked Leng Qingqiu, with utmost devotion, but at that time, Leng Qingqiu was always cold and indifferent, keeping everyone at a distance, hard to approach.

And now, when Lu Yu heard Belmont III mention that Leng Qingqiu was thinking of him, his heart instead filled with a hint of panic.

This panic was partly frantic, but mostly confused.

Over the years, Lu Yu had never considered matters of the heart, and upon hearing such news, his first reaction was bewilderment.

"Alas"

Thinking of this, Lu Yu shook his head helplessly, glancing at Leng Qingqiu not far away, giving a resigned smile and muttering to himself, "Let's put this matter aside for now."

"I'll consider it after my great vengeance is fulfilled."

Thinking of this, Lu Yu slowly stepped forward, moving towards Marcus and Leng Qingqiu.

"Master, are you alright?"

When Lu Yu reached Marcus, Marcus spoke respectfully, his words filled with concern.

"I'm fine, Jiang Tianyi is just a clumsy chicken that can't hurt me."

Upon hearing Marcus's words, Lu Yu spoke lightly, "By the way, why didn't you tell me about the Leader coming to Lin'an?"

Through Belmont III's earlier words, Lu Yu could tell that Marcus knew about Belmont III's arrival in Lin'an City, but hadn't informed him, hence Lu Yu's question.

"Please forgive me, Master!"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus hurriedly spoke up, "I wanted to tell you while you were chatting with Madam, but the attack happened so suddenly that I didn't get a chance to inform you."

As he spoke, Marcus's tone was filled with respect.

"Let it be."

Upon hearing Marcus's words, Lu Yu said, waving his hand and speaking, "This matter happened unexpectedly, so I won't say much more. Next time anything similar happens, be sure to report it to me in advance."

Currently, Lu Yu didn't have the mind to overthink this issue, and indeed it was understandable; after all, even he hadn't expected Jiang Tianyi to suddenly make a move against him at this moment.

"Thank you, Master!"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus spoke, his words extremely respectful.

"Hmm, later go destroy the battle armor on Jiang Tianyi and dump the body back into the sea."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's words carried a touch of indifference.

Due to Jiang Tianyi's special identity, he couldn't cut off Jiang Tianyi's head to honor his parents.

Given the current situation, the Shadow Luo Organization had clearly noticed his presence, so at this point, it was better not to add to the problems and focus on dealing with the Shadow Luo Organization.

He wasn't worried about the handling of Jiang Tianyi's corpse now, because Jiang Tianyi's cause of death was drowning, so just leaving it to the local police was enough; there was no need to go to great lengths for cleanup.

And regarding that piece of battle armor, Lu Yu was even less concerned.

Just like Belmont III said earlier, this particular battle armor demands extremely high bodily functions; not only ordinary people, even those trained for years couldn't bear this armor.

The reason Jiang Tianyi was able to fight wearing this armor was largely because he was a master himself, capable of bearing the armor.

If it were an ordinary person, just the armor alone could claim his life!

And precisely because of this, Lu Yu was very at ease letting Marcus handle this armor.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus responded, then discreetly retreated.

After all, Leng Qingqiu was right next to him, being Lu Yu's subordinate, standing there would be very awkward.

"Are you alright?"

Seeing Marcus tactfully retreat, Leng Qingqiu looked at Lu Yu and said, "Are you hurt anywhere?"

In her words, Leng Qingqiu's voice didn't carry the sweet sentiment of a small woman, but the concern within was exceptionally intense.

As Belmont said, beneath Leng Qingqiu's cold and beautiful appearance, there was a passionate heart.

"I'm fine."

Upon hearing, Lu Yu shook his head and said, "It's just a minor character, nothing to worry about."

In his words, Lu Yu's tone seemed calm, as if it was not a big deal.

Upon hearing Lu Yu's indifferent words, a shimmer of shock touched Leng Qingqiu's heart, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.

She had just seen Lu Yu being dragged off by a steel cable with her own eyes; such an incident would have terrified anyone, causing great fright.

Yet Lu Yu now appeared completely calm, as if it was just a trivial matter, leaving Leng Qingqiu immensely shocked.

"Do you frequently encounter such things?"

After being shocked for a moment, Leng Qingqiu looked at Lu Yu in front, her voice low and spoke.

"Frequently."

Upon hearing Leng Qingqiu's inquiry, Lu Yu nodded and responded, "I'm used to it."

As he spoke, Leng Qingqiu's body slightly stiffened, looking at the Lu Yu in front of her, softness flickering in her eyes.

Up till today, Leng Qingqiu had finally gained a clear and comprehensive understanding of Lu Yu.

It turned out, during the years Lu Yu was gone, he endured so much.

"It's getting late."

Looking at Leng Qingqiu's radiant beauty, Lu Yu smiled slightly and said, "Let me take you back. We can talk more on the way."

Facing Leng Qingqiu now, for a moment, Lu Yu felt somewhat at a loss, so he suggested this proposal. Driving might slightly alleviate this awkwardness.

"Okay."

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Qingqiu nodded, agreeing.

After Leng Qingqiu agreed, Lu Yu and she got back into the vehicle they arrived in, driving towards the Leng Family's estate.
