Chapter 633 Return
When Lu Yu returned to his stronghold, it had already been destroyed. It had degenerated into ruins, and no living creature, not even tenacious plants, could survive here.
“It only takes an instant to destroy a stronghold,” Lu Yu sighed, looking at the crumbling walls.
The strength of a dragon was absolutely terrifying.
In ancient times, whoever could control a dragon could become king of any land they wanted!
A dragon could easily destroy a city.
Even in the modern era, destroying a city was a piece of cake for dragons.
Dragon’s strength far surpa.s.sed that of the vast majority of cultivators!
The number of people in the human world who could fight against such a ferocious beast was almost in the single digits!
In most cases, a large team was required to fight a single dragon, and the team had to be made up entirely of world-cla.s.s cultivators.
Lu Yu pulled out another scroll, unfurled it, and vanished on the spot once more.
Lu Yu reappeared in the snowy mountains after disappearing from the scorched earth. The temperature difference between the two was stark.
Standing on the snowy mountains, Lu Yu looked down at the mines.
Camps had already been established below. Tents had already been erected, and those teleported here finally had a place to stay.
Everyone gathered in an open area and waited for their next instructions.
Lu Yu flashed into the crowd.
Lu Yu appeared before everyone in the blink of an eye.
When Xu Yuan and the others noticed Lu Yu, they made way for him.
Everyone’s depressed mood improved when they saw Lu Yu.
“I understand how sad and angry you are that our stronghold has been destroyed, but we will exact our vengeance sooner or later. They’ll pay the price eventually!”
“Captain, it’s not because our stronghold was destroyed,” someone in the crowd said weakly.
“The main reason is that our enemy is far too powerful. Can we ever be a match for them?”
“That’s correct. They even have ancient dragons on their side. This level of difference between us is simply despairing!”
“Just the thought of fighting them feels impossible…”
Lu Yu realized why they were depressed.
“I know the enemy is powerful, but what you saw is already their strongest. Our military’s powerhouses have yet to make a move.”
The people felt renewed hope after hearing this.
Xu Yuan turned to Lu Yu and asked, “Have you found Jiang Ning?”
Lu Yu found it hard to reply to Xu Yuan’s question.
“She… She’s gone. She died from the Death Spirit Dragon’s fire breath.”
Xu Yuan lowered his head when he heard this. Han Xuefei and the others sighed deeply and silently lowered their heads.
When the news was announced, everyone burst into tears.
Everyone bowed their heads in mourning.
“Jiang Ning is an excellent vice-captain. I hope she finds happiness on the other side…”
“Sister Jiang Ning… What a shame; I hope to see her again.”
“Sob… We will unquestionably avenge you!”
Xu Yuan continued to ask Lu Yu, “Did you see who the dragon-rearing master is?”
“Yes, it’s the Lionheart Empire’s Third Prince!”
Xu Yuan was shocked upon hearing this. “Wasn’t it the Third Prince, the person Elizabeth asked us to find?”
“That’s right; he’s the one. He became a member of the Truth Department and tamed the Death Spirit Dragon. He came to destroy our stronghold to prove his loyalty and is unquestionably our mortal enemy.”
“That cretin destroyed our stronghold and killed Jiang Ning. He must pay!”
“He will die. If he does not die, the Death Spirit Dragon’s soul in my body will be trapped.”
The crowd burst into an uproar at this point.
“The Lionheart Empire’s Third Prince has joined the Truth Department? What are they trying to achieve?”
“The Lionheart Empire and the Freedom Federation are at odds from this on! They must pay the price!”
“They have to explain themselves. What are they attempting to accomplish? How can they leave here unscathed after killing one of us?”
“We can’t just do nothing. We must knock on the Lionheart Empire’s doors and make things difficult for them when we return!”
The audience was rowdy and understandably angry.
Lu Yu quickly waved his hand to calm them down.
Everyone remained silent while waiting for Lu Yu to speak.
“The Third Prince has joined the Truth Department to seize the throne. The Lionheart Empire has already drawn a hard line, separating him from them. We have no reason to clash with the Lionheart Empire over this, as we now share a common adversary.”
“I’m hoping they keep their word. They’ll be our enemy if they continue their relations.h.i.+p with that guy!”
Lu Yu asked Xu Yuan, “Did anyone else come here during this time?”
Xu Yuan shook his head. “I don’t see any other enemies, but they must know we are here.”
“Of course,” Lu Yu replied. “I don’t think we can stay here much longer.”
Lu Yu went on. “When Walter returns, he will undoubtedly inform the others of the situation. The news that we are not as strong as them will undoubtedly spread, and they will send their members to destroy us!”
“For now, we can only give up the mines and teleport back as a group. We’ll join forces with the military before returning.”
When Xu Yuan heard this, he paused for a long time before nodding helplessly.
“If that’s the case, we’ll have to leave here.”
Lu Yu nodded and continued. “There is still one more issue.”
“What is it?”
“Where will we end up if we teleport from here?”
Xu Yuan was taken aback by Lu Yu’s words.
“Honestly, I don’t know. We’ve only opened a portal at our previous stronghold.”
Lu Yu exhaled a long sigh. “It appears we must first give it a shot in case we end up in a desolate location.”
“However, the teleportation scroll to the upper house remains unused. It shouldn’t be an issue.”
Xu Yuan added.
“All right, let’s get started.”
Lu Yu raised his hand and, out of habit, wanted to call for Jiang Ning.
He paused and turned to Han Xuefei. “Go look through the inventory to see how many large crystals we have.”
Han Xuefei nodded and went to the warehouse.
She returned almost immediately.
“There are 134 small crystals and 12 large crystals.”
“Let’s start opening a portal. We’ll return to see what’s happening on the other side.”
“Are we going too?” Yun Zirou inquired.
“That’s correct. Let’s all go back, and then the military can come in. They are the professionals here, so it is best to hand over control of the mines to them.”
Lu Yu took a large crystal from Han Xuefei as he concluded.
Lu Yu began to inject his energy into the crystal.
Buzzzzz…
The crystal exploded after a series of buzzing sounds, scattering countless dazzling particles. A strange energy surged into the air and ripped a ma.s.sive hole in s.p.a.ce.
A rift had opened and stayed suspended in the air. n.o.body knew what lay on the other side.
