98: This isn't over.
Tens of thousands of Puppet Corps appeared out of thin air!
"Holy crap, that's too many!"
The Prosperous employees who rushed over upon hearing the commotion were dumbfounded, having heard there was a good show to watch.
Compared to Xing Chenyu's Skeleton Heavy Cavalry, Lu Yuan's manipulation of the Puppet Corps achieved a complete numerical superiority!
Moreover, Lu Yuan's Puppet Corps all had their unique characteristics.
The Sky-Rending Legion, flapping their wings and hovering menacingly in the air; the Ten Thousand Bone Legion, riding Skeleton Warhorses and radiating demonic energy; and the Golden Spear Legion, clad in golden armor and wielding long swords... Witnessing this scene, Xing Wenan, who had confidence in his son, looked solemn.
He saw a familiar shadow in Lu Yuan.
But it was also so unfamiliar. Back when Shen Jun was alive, he didn't know the combat methods of a Puppet Master.
If he had known this was the case, perhaps he and Tang Jinghui wouldn't have fallen out to this extent.
"Charge!"
Xing Chenyu likewise controlled his Skeleton Heavy Cavalry, charging fearlessly towards the Ten Thousand Bone Legion riding warhorses ahead.
He was full of confidence in his Skeleton Heavy Cavalry!
Firstly, the hundreds of Skeleton Heavy Cavalry were Divine Ability Realm Peak, while Lu Yuan's Puppet Corps were merely Divine Power Realm One-Star.
Furthermore, the Divine Ability he comprehended, [Dark Surge], greatly enhanced the defense and attack capabilities of his Skeleton Monsters!
What use is quantity? High quality is king!
Bang bang bang—
After a round of charging, the Ten Thousand Bone Legion let out a battle roar in unison, controlling their warhorses and staring indifferently at Xing Chenyu.
Meanwhile, the hundreds of Skeleton Heavy Cavalry summoned by Xing Chenyu were utterly wiped out!
"Ah, it's already over?" The surrounding Prosperous employees stared wide-eyed.
The mighty and imposing Skeleton Heavy Cavalry proved incredibly fragile against the Ten Thousand Bone Legion.
They were like a piece of paper, easily pierced!
It must be noted that Lu Yuan not only had the Ten Thousand Bone Legion, but his other Eight Great Legions hadn't even made a move yet!
"The gap is too big," said Wang Zhijian from the Censorate.
He meant the gap between Xing Chenyu and Lu Yuan was enormous.
The summoned monsters of the two were simply not on the same level!
"If I recall correctly, Lu Yuan still has nine special monsters he hasn't summoned," the Crimson Flame Alliance Elder said in a hoarse voice.
"Below the Law Realm, Lu Yuan is absolutely unmatched!"
Wang Zhijian's tone was certain.
He then lamented that this was the true Heaven's Chosen of Huaxia. He, including Crimson Flame Alliance Elder Bi Zhenhai, had underestimated Lu Yuan's strength!
Looking at the Ten Thousand Bone Legion surrounding him, the Dark Attribute symbol on Xing Chenyu's brow shone brilliantly.
"You don't actually think this is enough to defeat me, do you, Lu Yuan!"
Xing Chenyu shouted, condensing ten more Skeleton Generals clad in dark green armor and wielding sabers.
This was his trump card!
"Do you regret not taking my son as a disciple?" Xing Wenan looked at Tang Jinghui.
The Skeleton General can only be condensed by a Dark Attribute Law Realm Practitioner.
Xing Chenyu, having comprehended the Divine Ability [Dark Surge], could condense Skeleton Monsters one major realm higher!
"Regret?" Tang Jinghui habitually adjusted his Gold-rimmed Glasses.
"Do you really think Xing Chenyu can win against Lu Yuan just with the Skeleton Generals?"
Tang Jinghui's tone was calm.
"Or do you think I agreed to let Lu Yuan fight Xing Chenyu just to let Xing Chenyu vent his anger?"
Hearing Tang Jinghui's words, Xing Wenan had a bad feeling.
The tens of thousands of Puppet Corps collectively vanished.
The nine great calamities appeared!
Demon Burial, the first to gain sentience, had flickering pupils, and its next action left everyone dumbfounded.
"To deal with such an ant, why would the Master need to personally control the other calamities?"
Demon Burial spoke human language.
The monster controlled by Lu Yuan could talk?
Xing Chenyu was dumbfounded, and Crimson Flame Alliance Elder Bi Zhenhai, who was watching, looked bewildered.
Including all the powerhouses present who were above the Domain Realm!
Without needing Lu Yuan's control, Demon Burial, having received the command, unleashed multiple Spirit Skills.
It easily instantly killed the ten Divine Ability Realm Peak Skeleton Generals!
"You..." Before Xing Chenyu could react, Demon Burial slapped him fiercely.
Slap—
"This slap is on behalf of Teacher!"
Lu Yuan said.
Slap—
"This slap is my gift to you!"
Slap, slap, slap—
"I'm in a good mood today."
"Now I'm not in a good mood anymore."
Looking at Xing Chenyu, whose face was swollen like a pig's head from the slapping, the surrounding Prosperous employees didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Slap after slap, eventually Lu Yuan stopped pretending.
He flat-out admitted that he just wanted to slap Xing Chenyu!
Bloody and bruised, Xing Chenyu knelt on the ground with a look of agony.
"Stop hitting me, I give..."
Slap—
Dozens of teeth fell onto the ground.
"Lu Yuan!!" Xing Wenan roared.
His Gold Attribute Domain unfolded, and he raised his hand, stabbing a golden sword toward Lu Yuan.
"What are you trying to do?"
His Fire Attribute Domain unfolded, and Tang Jinghui blocked Xing Wenan.
He raised his hand and condensed a ball of White Flame to collide with the golden sword.
"Gentlemen, you haven't signed a contract. Would you like a visit to the Censorate?" Wang Zhijian questioned, while the Crimson Flame Alliance Elder beside him was ready to strike at any moment.
Wang Zhijian's words were directed at Xing Wenan, and the Black Fireball condensed by the Elder behind him was also aimed at Xing Wenan!
Xing Wenan took a deep breath.
Looking at Xing Chenyu, who was breathing weakly and being mercilessly tortured by Lu Yuan, Xing Wenan was about to speak but was interrupted by Lu Yuan.
"I know it was you!"
"All the resources for the City of Chaos were sent by Prosperous. City Lord Xue Dehai must be your subordinate."
A breeze blew past, and Xing Chenyu looked like a stray dog.
As he spoke, Demon Burial pressed down on Xing Chenyu's head, injecting a faint wisp of demonic energy into Xing Chenyu's body.
Facing Lu Yuan's interrogation, Xing Wenan narrowed his eyes.
"I don't understand what you're saying." Xing Wenan glanced at Wang Zhijian of the Prosecutor's Office out of the corner of his eye.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as you can see what's happening!"
Lu Yuan grinned.
"Ah!"
Xing Chenyu let out a heartbreaking scream; his face went from pale to utterly bloodless, and his body twitched violently.
"Answer me!" Lu Yuan stared directly into Xing Wenan's eyes.
"Are you crazy? Are you trying to kill my son?!"
Xing Wenan was greatly alarmed.
He sensed that Xing Chenyu was slowly losing all vitality!
In thirty seconds at most, Xing Chenyu would turn into a puddle of blood, and not even a god could save him then!
"What if I kill him?!" Lu Yuan's words were forceful and resounding.
"Lu Yuan, calm down!"
Tang Jinghui and Wang Zhijian said.
No matter how much Lu Yuan tortured Xing Chenyu before, as long as Xing Chenyu didn't die, everything could be negotiated.
If Xing Chenyu died by Lu Yuan's hand, they would have to bear responsibility even with the contract signed!
After saying this, Tang Jinghui decisively stood in front of Lu Yuan, staring at Xing Wenan.
He prepared for the worst: Lu Yuan killing Xing Chenyu, followed by him fighting Xing Wenan to the death!
Divine Ability Realm Peak, Eight-star Divine Power Realm, Seven-Star Divine Ability Realm... Xing Chenyu's cultivation realm visibly plummeted, finally dropping all the way to the Qi Refining Realm, and the Divine Ability [Dark Surge] he had comprehended vanished!
Looking at Xing Wenan, who would rather watch his son die before his eyes than reveal the truth.
Lu Yuan felt it was completely pointless.
Bang—
Demon Burial kicked Xing Chenyu, who had fainted and whose cultivation realm had plummeted to the Qi Refining Realm, to the side.
Confirming that Xing Chenyu had only fainted, Wang Zhijian sighed in relief.
"Ruthless enough to directly turn Xing Chenyu into a Cripple!" Wang Zhijian updated his understanding of Lu Yuan.
A twenty-four-year-old Qi Refining Realm Practitioner was no different from a Cripple in Wang Zhijian's eyes.
Under the gaze of thousands of Prosperous employees and several Censorate Prosecutors.
Lu Yuan stood straight where he was, looking at Xing Wenan, who wished he could slice him into ten thousand pieces.
"There is no possibility of reconciliation between me and Prosperous."
"This is not over!"
