The next second—
"Bang!"
Zhao Jianan's head exploded like a ripe watermelon!
Red and white things splattered everywhere!
His headless body convulsed violently in mid-air, then lost all strength and plummeted straight down into the rocky ravine below.
Even in death, he couldn't believe that Li Yu actually dared to kill him!
That's not all!
The platinum arrow, imbued with Li Yu's full power, seemed to possess a life of its own after blasting Zhao Jianan's head apart, tracing a strange white arc in the air before flying towards the ravine below.
Then, as if Death itself were making a connection, it precisely pierced through the heads of the other Elders of the Longevity Sect who had fallen below and were lying on the ground, their fates unknown, and they exploded!
"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"...
One after another, the tragically beautiful blood flowers bloomed in the heavy rain, only to be quickly washed away and diluted by the rain, leaving behind only a scene of utter devastation and the rapidly dissipating breath of life.
In the blink of an eye, all the elders of the Longevity Sect present died, none of them survived!
"If he can still be saved, then I have nothing to say."
Li Yu looked down at the suddenly silent area below, muttering to himself, and indifferently put away his bow.
He had already noticed that there must be awakened individuals with special abilities within the Changsheng Sect who could heal the seriously injured, even those with pierced hearts.
Therefore, this time he chose to shoot him in the head, fundamentally eliminating any possibility of him being saved.
At this moment, the three Hei brothers were so shocked by what had happened in the blink of an eye that they lost all ability to think.
What did they see?
Zhao Jianan has just personally revealed a shocking secret about his connection to Tian Shu!
This is practically like putting both a get-out-of-jail-free card and a death warrant on the table at the same time!
However, Li Yu didn't even blink!
Before the other party could finish speaking, he shot an arrow without hesitation, blasting Zhao Jianan's head off!
This decisiveness is remarkable!
This absolute confidence and strength disregards all background threats!
This overwhelming spirit that disregards the "Celestial Pivot" as nothing!
It was deeply imprinted on the souls of the three brothers, making their blood seem to freeze, and they were unable to recover for a long time.
Hei Yi's lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a single word. He just stared at Li Yu's calm figure, as if she had just casually swatted a few mosquitoes, and only one thought was frantically echoing in his mind:
"Is he really afraid of nothing?!"
Before the Black brothers were completely stunned and had a chance to react.
Li Yu had already moved silently, riding the phoenix to land on the ravine. Everything around him, including Li Yu, was once again enveloped by the phoenix's flames. At the same time, he activated the vortex to quickly absorb the large amount of scattered energy around him.
Upgrade successful
[Bulletproof Vest LV15 > LV20: Defense +200, Damage Reduction 95%, Damage Reflection, Heavy Attack Protection, Energy Deflection]
[Unlock: Energy Absorption]
When attacked by energy and energy deflection is triggered, there is a chance that most of the attack energy will be converted and absorbed to replenish oneself or enhance the next attack.
"Such a significant improvement?" Li Yu pondered to himself, slightly surprised.
Given the current size and rotation speed of the cyclone, it wouldn't be surprising if it were to increase to Category 5 in one go.
He was simply surprised; he had underestimated Zhao Jianan. It was truly unbelievable that an old man on the verge of death could still possess such formidable energy.
Furthermore, they underestimated the growth potential of their equipment slot.
Such enhanced protection is simply unparalleled and defies easy expectations.
It forms a strange yet perfect complement to the Phoenix Bow's extreme attacks.
In addition to his already superhuman physique, his current overall defensive capabilities have probably surpassed those of most high-level awakened individuals known for their defense.
By the time the three Hei brothers finally recovered from their extreme shock and hurriedly flew towards Li Yu below, Li Yu had already absorbed all the dissipated energy around him.
After the phoenix flames dissipated, Li Yu slowly opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.
"Lord Li... Lord Li Yu!" As Hei Yifei approached, his first words were a heartfelt plea for advice:
"The Longevity Sect doesn't seem to have noticed anything happening here yet. Let's take this opportunity and leave quickly!"
He was genuinely scared.
It wasn't that they were afraid of the Changsheng Sect's own strength, but rather that they were afraid of the secret involving Tian Shu, which Zhao Jianan had personally confirmed.
"Yes, Boss Li Yu!" Hei San hurriedly echoed, his face filled with anxiety.
"Their backing is too powerful! So powerful that we can't afford to mess with them at all! If we leave now, we might be able to pretend nothing happened!"
Even Hei Er, who was usually calm and even had doubts about Li Yu, nodded heavily at this moment.
He was well aware of the limitations of individual strength. Even after Li Yu displayed such terrifying power, he still did not believe that he could contend with the ruling core of Zhongzhou, "Tian Shu," on his own.
Staying away from this vortex is the wisest choice right now.
To everyone's surprise, Li Yu seemed not to have heard the words "Tian Shu" at all, or perhaps he heard them but didn't take them to heart. He simply asked indifferently, his tone even carrying a hint of curiosity:
"What Heavenly Pivot, Earthly Pivot? I'm quite curious to see what kind of incredible backing this secretive Changsheng Sect stronghold can pull out."
Upon hearing this, the three of them were stunned, as if struck by lightning, and looked at Li Yu with disbelief.
They finally realized that Li Yu didn't know anything about Tian Shu at all!
As a recognized hero of Zhongzhou, and also recognized by the Thunder Bureau and promoted by the official authorities, he is the Zhongzhou City Lord who occupies Kangcheng.
