After Wu Yu ran out of the house, he quickly calmed down. He had really lost his composure, actually arguing with a girl.

However, Wu Yu had no intention of running back. Given how things had developed, Wu Yu estimated that he wouldn't be able to change other people's minds on his own this time.

If everything could be solved by talking, then there wouldn't be so much bloodshed in the world.

But Wu Yu did not intend to stand idly by. In fact, he had come up with a solution before, but the cost was too high and he did not want to use it. Now it seems that he has no choice but to use the last resort.

A smart person is one who can make good use of all the resources around them, while a wise person is one who can make these resources have a synergistic effect greater than the sum of their parts.

Wu Yu may not be considered a wise man, but he is capable of making good use of his own side's advantages.

Tomorrow morning, Wu Yu will threaten that guy named Ma Nan, saying that if they dare to take him to the dragon's cave, he will dance in the dragon's house.

Whether Wu Yu dared to risk his life was unknown, but using a suicide attack as a deterrent would surely make those people abandon the idea of ​​taking Wu Yu and his group to steal the treasure, given that the benefits were far less than the risks.

This might be the only way to stop Violet and the others from stealing the treasure, but after this incident, their relationship will inevitably break down. Ultimately, Wu Yu's actions are exploiting their feelings for each other, and feelings are precisely the things that are most vulnerable to testing.

However, Wu Yu felt that none of this mattered. In fact, upon closer reflection, he realized that he had no need to cultivate good relationships with these guys. He only needed to fulfill Jack's will and take care of Violet's health. As for whether she would hate him? Who cared!

As for Layton, they won't see each other again after this mission is over. He originally wanted to build a friendship with him, but now it seems that's the end of that. He's not the kind of person that he wants to befriend. It's good to have another kind passerby in life.

Wu Yu chuckled self-deprecatingly. After letting go of those wishful thinking thoughts, he felt a great sense of relief.

Back in the house, feeling his empty stomach, Wu Yu regretted his impulsive decision. There was nothing shameful about staying to eat before leaving; he was so weak to let himself be swayed by such trivial emotions.

Wu Yu closed his eyes, trying to fight off hunger with sleep, but since he had already slept a lot in the afternoon, he was full of energy and couldn't fall asleep at all. He could only lie on his side in bed, bent over, to make himself more comfortable.

Although he couldn't sleep, Wu Yu tried to clear his mind, which made him feel that the world was passing by faster.

After an unknown amount of time, Wu Yu heard the sound of the door opening. Layton, who came in from outside, did not choose to turn on the light, but sat back on his bed and said, "Wu Yu, are you hungry? I brought you some food, get up and eat."

Wu Yu immediately sat up in bed, but he complained, "Layton, disturbing other people's sleep is a big no-no. Back in the day, I was really grumpy when I woke up."

"I'm sorry, Wu Yu, I didn't speak up for you earlier. I admit I was tempted by the dragon's wealth, but I think your thinking is a bit too extreme. Not everyone you meet is a bad person, and if those people really have malicious intentions towards us, we can't fight back with their sixth-tier strength."

Layton was trying to ease tensions with Wu Yu.

Wu Yu took the food from Layton without any hesitation, took a bite to fill his stomach, and then said, "There's no need to talk about this anymore. You can't convince me. Since you haven't said you won't steal the dragon's treasure, then all our arguments are pointless. You're already bewitched, so it's normal for you to deliberately ignore some things."

Wu Yu had one more thing he didn't say: there really were some people in this world who knew he could instantly kill a sixth-tier professional. Whether it was the demons or the princess's side, he wasn't without enemies in this world.

However, there was no need to tell Layton that he had once defeated the Demon King. Regardless of whether Layton believed him or not, Wu Yu did not want to be too high-profile at the moment.

"So what are your thoughts?" Layton asked.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow," Wu Yu said dismissively. He didn't intend to tell Layton about his deterrence plan. These kinds of things are all about surprise and not giving the other party too much time to react.

Wu Yu ended the conversation with this sentence.

A silence fell over the room, but neither of them intended to break it. Layton chose to go to bed, while Wu Yu sat cross-legged on the bed.

Now that we've eaten our fill, it's time to get down to business.

Wu Yu closed his eyes, recalling the contents of "Detailed Explanation of Battle Qi Cultivation" in his mind while using the special breathing method recorded in it.

In the past, it would have taken some time, but today, perhaps because his mind was clear, Wu Yu entered the meditative state described in the "Detailed Explanation" in an instant.

By lowering his five senses to the minimum, his concentration actually increased. Even though Wu Yu hadn't yet realized he possessed any so-called spiritual power, he could still sense things that he couldn't observe in the past.

First, there are the two manifestations of rules that exist deep within consciousness, where even the smallest details can be perfectly observed.

Even if Wu Yu felt he could take on ten of his past selves now, touching those two things would still mean certain death.

As for the legendary ability to see one's own body internally, Wu Yu couldn't do that yet. However, when he practiced his breathing technique, he could clearly feel a warm gas flowing through his body. No, to be precise, it was an invisible particle. This should be the unique fighting spirit of this world.
