Long Yu followed Gu Yan into the city and soon arrived at a luxurious restaurant.
In the restaurant, Ye Lun, Gu Jun, and Gu Yan were ambushed by a large group of people who had been lying in ambush.
"After the City Lord and the two Great Elders left, Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang seized the opportunity to deal with Young Lord Ye."
Gu Yan ignored the blood flowing from his body and rushed toward the restaurant with Long Yu. At the same time, he explained, "The owner of this restaurant is the woman that Young Lord Ye admires. Young Lord Ye had just returned from outside when he heard that Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang were harassing her. Young Lord Ye immediately rushed over, but he didn't expect … "
"Is Young Lord Ye alright?"
Long Yu asked in a deep voice.
He didn't expect the City Lord and the two Great Elders to leave Yellow Sand Sky City to deal with the beasts outside. He didn't even know if they were dead or alive.
However, under such circumstances, Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang had brazenly started an internal strife in an attempt to eliminate Ye Lun!
Obviously, Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang both thought that Ye Lun had a high chance of becoming the fourth City Lord, so they couldn't help but make a move!
However, Long Yu felt a little strange. Zhu Tao was already very old, but as the second senior brother, he was only at the Heavenly Beginning Stage. Qi Ziguang was even worse, he was only at the Mortal Glory Stage. Based on their talent and hard work, even without Ye Lun, the position of City Lord should not have fallen to them.
If that was the case, why did they have to stand out and deal with Ye Lun?
One had to know that although the City Lord and the Grand Elder had not returned, if they were to be questioned afterwards, they would not be easily forgiven for daring to frame or even kill Ye Lun. It was even more impossible for them to become the fourth City Lord!
Of course, Long Yu didn't think too much about it.
He only pondered for a while before putting it to the back of his mind. After all, helping Ye Lun out of trouble was the most important thing.
"Anyway, I'm about to leave the Heavenly Mandate Continent. It doesn't matter even if I show my strength. I can also test where my limits are."
Long Yu's eyes flickered with a bright light, "Zhu Tao, isn't this pig a Heavenly Origin Stage Martial Cultivator? I can use it to test my strength, and see if my current strength is enough to deal with a Heavenly Origin Stage Martial Cultivator …"
"Out of the way!"
Gu Yan roared in anger, instantly causing the crowd to disperse. After which, he soared into the air and entered the third floor of the restaurant.
Long Yu followed closely behind. The moment he stepped in, he discovered that Ye Lun was already covered in blood. If it wasn't for Gu Jun risking his life to block for him, Ye Lun would probably have collapsed a long time ago.
"Gu Jun actually stepped into the Mortal Tribulation realm."
Long Yu glanced at the scene and rejoiced. If it wasn't for the fact that Gu Jun, who used the Gu family's spear technique, had broken through to the Human Tribulation Realm, he would have been covered in blood like Ye Lun.
Surrounding Gu Jun and Ye Lun were many Martial Cultivators. They were all Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang's subordinates. All of them were staring at the scene with cold smiles on their faces.
"Oh, you've called for a helper."
Zhu Tao had a plump figure and a pair of small triangular eyes, making him look extremely wretched.
He stood to the side and confidently glanced at Long Yu, "Isn't this our famous Long Yu? I never imagined that you'd be able to return alive. You even hid your identity and lied to us that you were a mountain ghost. Tsk tsk, what a joke! "
"I'm Long Yu, but also a mountain ghost. A ghost that's here to take your life!"
Long Yu spoke in an indifferent tone, before he slowly walked forward and arrived beside the heavily injured Ye Lun.
The well-built Gu Yan slowly walked over, seemingly unconcerned about the injuries on his body.
"Brother Long, you, leave now."
Ye Lun could vaguely sense that Long Yu had returned and subconsciously wanted to tell him to leave. After all, Zhu Tao was a Heavenly Origin expert, and even he was not his match!
"Long Yu!"
At this moment, two shouts came from the crowd outside. Then, two figures soared into the sky and entered the restaurant.
Bei Yuyao and Dou Zicheng!
One was at the Initial Human stage, while the other was at the Hua stage. The two of them were useless in this situation, but when they saw Long Yu, they immediately stepped forward without hesitation.
Of course, Bei Yuyao couldn't just watch her son die!
"Not bad, not bad, there are more and more people here, but in my opinion, this is still not enough."
The plump second senior brother, Zhu Tao, swept a glance at Bei Yuyao and Dou Zicheng, before he let out a disdainful laugh.
"You're all a bunch of idiots."
The luxuriously dressed young man, Qi Ziguang, smiled smugly as he looked at the crowd. "I purposely let Gu Yan leave to lure all of you here. I didn't expect all of you to fall for it. Not bad, not bad, let's die together. I'm so touched!"
"I don't care if you're Long Yu or Shan Gui. You said you're here to take my life. I don't know where you got your confidence from, but you'll soon find out that blind confidence will kill you!"
Zhu Tao looked at Long Yu with a vicious glint in his eyes. He then waved his hand and said, "Kill them."
Among the surrounding Martial Cultivators, there was a Heavenly Origin Stage expert like Zhu Tao. There were also four Human Tribulation Stage Martial Cultivators. The lineup was extremely powerful, so Ye Lun and Gu Jun were no match for them.
Judging from the number of Martial Practitioners and their cultivation levels, Zhu Tao's side had an overwhelming advantage over Ye Lun's side!
"Wait."
Just as the crowd was about to swarm forward, Long Yu suddenly raised his hand and narrowed his eyes at Zhu Tao.
"What, are you going to beg for mercy?"
Zhu Tao smirked, "That's not difficult. I'll spare your life if you swear your loyalty to me and kill Ye Lun with your own hands!"
"Such a chaotic battle is too unsightly. It'll be a pity even if the flowers and plants are damaged."
Long Yu said calmly, "If that's the case, why don't I fight you alone?"
As soon as he said this, everyone around him was stunned.
Did they hear it wrong? Long Yu, who had just reached the Human Glory Realm, was proposing to fight Zhu Tao, who was in the Heavenly Origin Realm?
They would laugh their heads off!
"You want to challenge me? Do you have the right?"
Zhu Tao was startled, but he soon smirked, "Lei Hang, I'll leave this kid to you. Since he wants to fight me alone, you should show him who he is."
As soon as he finished speaking, a Human Tribulation Realm Martial Cultivator stood out from the crowd with a mocking look on his face.
"So you're Long Yu? I heard that you almost crippled Chu Chengke in the last competition. That's my friend, Lei Hang."
The muscular Martial Cultivator stood out and stared at Long Yu coldly, "You were able to participate in the competition of the Human Glory Realm when you were only in the Human Origin Realm, and you even won the championship. However, that was just an accident. Soon, you'll know the difference between the Human Glory Realm and the Human Tribulation Realm! "
Without saying a single word, Long Yu turned around and walked out of the restaurant.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that on the third floor of the restaurant, behind where Zhu Tao was standing, there was a beautiful woman quietly observing the situation.
That woman must be the owner of this restaurant, the woman that Ye Lun admires, right?
However, from the corner of his eye, Long Yu did not see any concern or worry on the beautiful woman's face, which made Long Yu slightly confused.
Logically speaking, this woman had been harassed by Zhu Tao and Qi Ziguang, and Ye Lun had come to her rescue but ended up trapped. Shouldn't she be worried for Ye Lun?
"Something's wrong."
Long Yu became cautious. He turned around and looked at the Human Tribulation Realm Martial Cultivator, Lei Hang.
Lei Hang was one of Zhu Tao's four Human Tribulation Realm Martial Cultivators. He had mastered the power of the Heavenly Tablet of Lightning and was extremely powerful. He was only one step away from breaking through the bottleneck and entering the Heavenly Realm!
As Lei Hang flew out of the restaurant and confronted Long Yu in the air, many people became nervous.
Among them, Bei Yuyao and Dou Zicheng were the most worried. Gu Jun and Gu Yan were naturally on Long Yu's side as well.
There were also many onlookers who had a good impression of Ye Lun. They were currently pointing at the restaurant, expressing their dissatisfaction with Zhu Tao and the others.
However, Zhu Tao was too powerful. Most of the residents in Yellow Sand City had not even reached the Heavenly Realm, so they naturally had no right to speak. They could only whisper to each other.
"I, Lei Hang, will avenge Brother Chu Chengke."
Lei Hang looked at Long Yu as a layer of dazzling lightning flashed on his body.
"To be honest, I've already forgotten who Chu Chengke is."
Long Yu said calmly, "Also, I won't remember your name."
"Brat, you're very arrogant, but I don't know why you're so arrogant. Just because you're a Human Glory Realm cultivator?"
Lei Hang laughed. His eyes were filled with disdain, "Take this, brat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Hang seemed to be surrounded by a layer of lightning. He turned into a lightning tornado and appeared in front of Long Yu in an instant!
Lei Hang was extremely fast. Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Most of the onlookers could not react in time!
"None of you have left Sand City to participate in the battle against the exotic beasts, have you?"
Under such circumstances, Long Yu's voice was suddenly heard.
Just as everyone was feeling surprised and puzzled, Lei Hang's miserable cry rang out, followed by the sound of a strong lightning body crashing into the street not far away.
"You have no idea what kind of dangerous situation the city lord, the grand elder, and the other Heavenly Tribulation experts are facing, but you are still rebelling in your own homes. You really make me laugh my head off!"
Long Yu's voice grew colder and colder. Following which, his body descended and heavily stomped on Lei Hang's body, which was enveloped by lightning. The lightning around Lei Hang's body was instantly extinguished. Lei Hang coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood!
