Chapter 1041 The City Lord’s Request
After leaving the shop, the two of them walked down the street.
Soon, Lu Yu heard the people around him talking about Wan Lang.
Jiang Xun walked down the street with a guilty conscience. The people around him didn’t know who the real murderer was, so they were all discussing it curiously.
Suddenly, a man in black stood in front of Lu Yu and blocked his way.
Lu Yu looked at him and asked, “What’s up?
“You killed Wan Lang, right?”
“We didn’t do it. It has nothing to do with us.” Jiang Xun hurriedly waved his hand.
The man in black ignored Jiang Xun and continued to look at Lu Yu.
“So what if I did it? What do you want?”
Lu Yu asked in an imposing manner. He did not take the mysterious man in front of him seriously.
“My boss asked me to look for you. You brought a burden with you and destroyed Wan Lang’s nest. Clearly, you’re very strong. Our boss admires you very much and hopes to entrust you with some things.”
“I don’t need his commission,” Lu Yu said with a smile.
“He’s the City Lord of Black Dragon City. He’s powerful and influential. If you can get close to him, you’ll have a high position in Black Dragon City.”
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “Forget it. I don’t need to accept his request for the time being.”
“Alright, we know that you’re powerful. If you’re willing to help, the City Lord will listen to you and help you with many things.”
Lu Yu thought momentarily and asked, “If I help him, will he agree to whatever
I want to do after the matter is done?”
“Of course, the premise is that you don’t go overboard.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “Is there an academy for beast tamers in Black Dragon
“Of course. The most powerful academy is the Black Dragon Academy, which is also the most high-end academy in Black Dragon City. The top dragon trainers in Black Dragon City are all from there.”
“You don’t know anything about dragon taming now, do you?” Lu Yu looked down at Jiang Xun and asked.
Jiang Xun nodded helplessly. “Yeah, I know nothing about it.”
“In that case, I can accept the City Lord’s request. What does he want me to do?” Lu Yu asked.
“I’ll give you a map. Go to this place and kill everyone here,” the man in black said softly.
“Who is the target?”
“Zhao Luo is another faction in the city. He has thousands of soldiers under him and is influential. The City Lord has noticed that this guy has been trying to usurp the throne recently. However, if we fight him head-on, the risk is high. Therefore, the City Lord has been looking for a way to get rid of him secretly.”
“If you can help him with this, you will undoubtedly be doing the City Lord a great favor. He will be very grateful to you.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “I understand. If that’s the case, then give me the thing.”
The man in black carefully took out an envelope from his pocket. “The map is inside. Once you find the location, make your move immediately. The target is a bald man who likes to wear a lot of accessories. You can recognize him at a glance.”
“No problem. Leave it to me. It’s just a quick trip.”
Lu Yu took the envelope and opened it. It was located in a massive villa in the northern part of Black Dragon City. It was relatively remote and sparsely populated. Not many people would witness it if he were to take action here.
Lu Yu accepted the envelope, and the man in black turned to leave.
“After you’re done, come to the City Lord’s Estate to find us.”
Lu Yu turned around and walked toward the location marked on the map.
“That guy is so mysterious. I can’t see what he looks like. Do you think he’ll lie to us?”
Jiang Xun asked worriedly.
“If he dares to lie to me, he will die. Not just him, but the City Lord as well. Let’s not think about that for now and kill this guy to get the identity of a Dragon Trainer student.”
“Brother Lu, do you want to learn too? You’ve already tamed such a powerful dragon.”
“Having more skills doesn’t weigh me down. It’s my first time here, so I don’t know what the dragon trainer profession is like here. It’s never a bad thing to see and understand more.”
The two of them followed the instructions on the map and arrived at the target location.
In front of him was a luxurious manor that occupied a large area. Moreover, the villa in the middle seemed out of place compared to the surrounding ones.
Lu Yu came to the iron gates, and the guard at the door stopped him.
“Who are you!”
Lu Yu didn’t waste any more time talking to the guard. He raised his hand and punched out.
Squelch!
Blood splattered all over the ground, and the guard fell to the ground with a thud.
Lu Yu walked past the corpse and shook his arm to get rid of the blood.
After entering the manor, Lu Yu walked through the spacious front courtyard and headed for the main door.
Jiang Xun followed behind him, carefully looking around.
At this moment, a gardener looked at Lu Yu curiously. “Are you a guest? Are you here to see our master?”
“Yes, call him out.”
“Okay, please wait a moment. I’ll call him out now.”
He turned around and left, while Lu Yu found a chair and sat down.
Lu Yu walked in quietly, making the people around him think that Lu Yu had gotten permission from the guard at the door before he walked in.
After a while, a fat man in white pajamas walked over.
Behind him were two bodyguards.
The man approached Lu Yu, looked at him closely, and did not speak up.
“Do I know you?”
He looked at Lu Yu curiously.
Lu Yu stood up and faced him.
The two bodyguards behind the man saw that the situation wasn’t right and placed their hands on the sticks behind them.
Lu Yu smiled faintly. “You don’t know me, and I don’t know you either. But I came to you because I need your help.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I don’t even know you, so why should I help? Also, how did you get in? Where are my guards? Are they dead? Why did they let you in? You bastard, get out quickly, and I’ll treat it as if you never came. Otherwise, you’re dead meat!”
He shouted arrogantly and glared at Lu Yu with anger, unafraid.
At this moment, the two bodyguards took a step forward and assumed the stance of taking action.
Lu Yu smiled faintly and said casually, “I’m here to ask for your help. It’s very simple. I need you to die!”
“Me? In your dreams! This is a lunatic! Kill him and throw him into the river!”
As he shouted, the two bodyguards behind him quickly stepped forward and swung their fists at Lu Yu.
Seeing this, Lu Yu immediately raised his right fist and punched at the two of them.
Lu Yu’s speed was as fast as lightning. In an instant, two punches were thrown out, piercing through the chests of the two men.
Zhao Luo, who was standing at the side, was covered in blood. He was so scared that he stood rooted to the ground and did not move.
“Do you still dare to make a fuss now?” Lu Yu walked toward him and asked..
