If Aiden becomes belligerent, then this fight is inevitable.

Thanks to having obtained intelligence about Aiden in advance, Wu Yu had a way to deal with this situation.

Wu Yu said in a cold voice, "My sword is only used to kill, not to spar with others."

It means that I'm not afraid to fight you, but I'm afraid of accidentally killing you. This way, I can deter others and avoid being looked down upon.

However, Aiden has always been a hothead and would not be intimidated by Wu Yu's few words. He confidently said, "Perfect, just come with the determination to kill me. If you hold back, the fight will be boring."

Wu Yu shook his head, indicating his refusal, but he took out the Yuan An sword and slashed it out as Aiden's eyes lit up.

It's impossible to let Aiden make the first move, otherwise he would definitely be killed with one punch.

【Time-Space Blade - Dimensional Slash】

It wasn't released through the system, but rather performed by Wu Yu himself. Naturally, Wu Yu couldn't understand such a ninth-tier ultimate skill. But just like making a pistol might require extremely high craftsmanship, learning to fire a gun is something anyone can do.

The principle behind this move is to slash one's sword energy into the void and then instantly teleport to the desired location. Wu Yu doesn't know the laws of space, but he only needs to activate the black sphere in his spiritual sea as he did last time, and the crack he wants will naturally appear in the space.

As for the landing point, even if Wu Yu exhausts all his strength, he can only choose a target within a hundred meters at most, which is completely different from the cross-dimensional strike last time.

In fact, Wu Yu's original move, [Time-Space Blade - Instant Kill], could also be used, but he could only freeze time for one second at most, and couldn't even complete the raising of his hand, so it was practically useless.

Although this attack was a stripped-down version he released himself, the effects specified by the system still remained.

Wu Yu unleashed a sword aura half a meter wide, which disappeared into space to Aiden's astonishment. When it reappeared, it aimed directly at Aiden's throat and left a bloody mark on it.

Although it was true damage, Wu Yu's own strength was too weak, so it only had this effect when it hit Aiden.

The wound healed in the blink of an eye, which was not even a minor injury for Aiden, but it still made him feel like he was facing a formidable enemy, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that he had no chance of defending against that sword strike.

Since he could break through his defenses with ease, he could also take his life with ease. Aiden deeply understood that Wu Yu's words were not just bluffing.

Aiden wouldn't be afraid of a life-or-death duel, but if he were instantly killed, he wouldn't have lived long enough.

This time, Aiden was afraid, especially when he saw the killing intent seeping into Wu Yu's eyes. He knew that if Wu Yu were to really make a move, it would be a fatal blow.

Wu Yu's killing intent couldn't intimidate an eighth-level expert, but if one regarded the killing intent Wu Yu released at full power as just the tip of the iceberg of his killing intent, then one would naturally imagine him as a cold-blooded killer who kills without blinking an eye.

"The laws of space? I never imagined you possessed such terrifying power." Saying such a thing was, in fact, a sign that Aiden had given in.

"Just a little trick," Wu Yu said without changing his expression.

Don't try to see through my true abilities, even if I'm just boasting about them.

Even if Aiden had retaliated, he wouldn't have been afraid, nor would he have needed to do anything; he could have just stood still.

For eighth-tier epics, even if the knife has already pierced someone's skin, they can stop attacking instantly; their control over power has long reached the point of complete mastery.

A guy like Aiden, who prefers fair and square duels, would never resort to underhanded tactics.

This is the advantage of having intelligence; once Wu Yu understands the other party's personality, he can even predict their actions.

“Once I figure out a way to counter your sword strike, I will challenge you again,” Aiden said defiantly.

"Do as you please, but I have more than one way of killing people," Wu Yu said coldly. After speaking, he showed no respect for Aiden and strode into the city with an air of indifference.

Aiden watched Wu Yu's departing figure, his fighting spirit undiminished. He said eagerly, "Wu Yu, wait for me. I look forward to a serious battle with you."

······

Fortunately, the people of the Versailles Empire were quite sensible and knew to leave someone for Wu Yu to guide him; otherwise, Wu Yu would probably have gotten lost in this enormous imperial city.

Upon entering the city, Wu Yu found that the streets were just as bustling. The only difference was that the people around him were looking at him with somewhat unfriendly expressions. One or two would be fine, but it was too absurd for everyone to deliberately avoid him. His face wasn't the kind that deserved a beating.

Wu Yu asked the servant he had brought with him, "Don't people from your country welcome me?"

“Lord Wu Yu, please don’t misunderstand. Our country has always respected the strong.” The attendant said in a very fearful manner, “It’s just that the residents of the empire are mostly believers in the Dark Church, and the Dark Church has always had conflicts with the Church of Light. Perhaps they don’t like your identity as a follower of the Church of Light.”

Me! A follower of the Church of Light? Wu Yu was a little taken aback for a moment, but then he looked down at the three crosses hanging on his chest and realized that this must be the symbol of his faith in the Church of Light.

Moreover, since Virginia had not specified how strong the defensive capabilities of these crosses were, the cautious Wu Yu felt that wearing only one was not safe enough, so he simply wore two more.

But to others, this seemed like a member of the Church of Light had come to show off his power. If Wu Yu hadn't been of noble status, these residents probably would have already come over and beaten him up.
