Good tactic!
However, in Zhao Dezheng's eyes, besides the lingering shock, his "awe" for Li Yu had reached a new level.
This young Star Lord of Zhongzhou is no ordinary man, and his strength is unfathomable.
Perhaps, his long-cherished "major reform," his perfect plan, can also be accomplished through Li Yu's help!
Moreover, this path of 'rebirth' is probably more exciting and subversive than he imagined.
But it also makes it more likely to get closer to that ultimate goal!
After the extreme shock, that obsessive and fanatical heart surprisingly developed a faint sense of anticipation and excitement.
Hehehe...
Zhao Dezheng suddenly laughed without realizing it.
He hurriedly raised his hand to cover his mouth, but the laughter couldn't be stopped, and his shoulders kept shaking.
Even though Li Yu had already gotten used to it
But Zhao Dezheng's barely suppressed, neurotic chuckle echoed across the empty elevator platform, sounding eerie and jarring.
He immediately interrupted Zhao Dezheng's self-absorbed excitement:
"Are there only these two people inside the Changsheng Sect stronghold?"
The laughter stopped abruptly.
Zhao Dezheng quickly composed himself; he knew, of course, who the two people Li Yu was referring to were.
It's probably only in Li Yu's words that Zhao Jianan and Liu Sha's strength would be so underestimated.
But these are two powerful high-level Awakened Ones, top-tier beings anywhere, let alone being stationed at such a small stronghold.
The fact that the Changshengmen headquarters could allow the two of them to appear at the same base was already a great favor.
Moreover, the headquarters of the Changsheng Sect seems to have some kind of remote support capability.
However, no one expected that the Star Orbit Cannon would attract someone like Li Yu, who could crush high-level Awakened Beings.
The excitement in Zhao Dezheng's eyes hadn't completely faded, so he cooperated and explained from Li Yu's perspective:
"Those two should be the strongest combat force stationed at the stronghold. The other awakened ones are nothing. I can handle them all."
He seemed to remember something, and added in a colder tone:
"However, there seem to be several high-rise buildings in the control room and upper area that I haven't seen along the way, so they should still be up there."
“I’ve met them before. These people have been deeply involved in the sins of the Longevity Sect, and their minds have long been twisted. If they stay, they will only bring trouble.”
Zhao Dezheng paused, a hint of eager killing intent flashing in his eyes:
"How about... I go and 'take care of' it?"
"Okay." Li Yu's reply was concise and to the point.
Zhao Dezheng's spirits lifted, as if he had received some glorious mission from a hero.
He already had some understanding of the base's internal structure, so he naturally knew where the high-ranking officers should be hiding.
Moreover, he remembered the appearances of those high-ranking officials very clearly. Even if these people realized something was wrong now and were mixed in with the panicked staff or even the refugees, he would be able to spot them immediately.
"Leave those guys to me!"
Without further delay, Zhao Dezheng turned around and rushed towards the exit of the passage.
Li Yu watched the other person's departing figure, her golden pupils reflecting a scrutinizing light.
He didn't follow them, but watched Zhao Dezheng's figure disappear into the depths of the passage.
He only looked away when the footsteps, filled with suppressed excitement and murderous intent, had completely faded into the distance.
Although Li Yu didn't plan to follow, he knew that Zhao Dezheng's cleanup process would be efficient and brutal.
Moreover, there will be absolutely no survivors!
Even though Zhao Dezheng was under Jin Tong's watchful eye the entire time they met, and there was no flaw in his demeanor, Li Yu still maintained a basic level of vigilance towards him.
It wasn't until just now that he was certain Zhao Dezheng's reaction wasn't fake, and the doubt in his eyes finally dissipated.
Whether it's an act or genuine, at least for now, Zhao Dezheng's actions align with his needs.
Thinking of Zhao Dezheng's unique way of thinking about 'justice', a strange look appeared in Li Yu's eyes.
Perhaps Zhao Dezheng is more suited to be this hero of Zhongzhou.
If anyone in Jincheng knew what Li Yu was thinking, they would probably gasp in shock and faint on the spot.
After Zhao Dezheng left, Li Yu immediately turned around and returned along the same passage she had come from.
When he stepped back onto the platform where the fierce battle had taken place, the scene before him was vastly different from when he left.
The entire platform was almost completely covered by a large amount of sand and gravel, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
The air was filled with a faint smell of blood and burnt food.
The three Hei brothers maintained their vigilant triangular formation, guarding the relatively intact central area of the platform, and waited for Li Yu with everyone else.
Behind them, the five healing-type awakened individuals huddled together, whispering to each other.
The distinguished guests, who were bound by special shackles, looked even more disheveled, slumped on the ground, their faces pale.
They should have been enjoying good food and drink, resting and recovering, but instead they were being treated like prisoners.
Many distinguished guests had sinister eyes, with humiliation and resentment welling up in them, but they dared not show it due to the circumstances.
When Li Yu calmly emerged from the shadows of the passage, all eyes instantly focused on him.
The Black brothers visibly relaxed, their tense muscles loosening slightly.
After Li Yu arrived, Hei Yi immediately stepped forward and reported in a deep voice:
"Lord Li Yu, we have successfully contacted the Thunder Bureau."
"Thunder Bureau support is on its way and is expected to arrive within half an hour. We must take control of the situation and protect... 'important evidence' and survivors."
