After making the announcement, Li Yang slowly descended from the sky, smiling as he said to Lu Fan and Li Yu:
"Alright, you two star lords, come back to Yangcheng with me. I have already had a grand feast prepared to welcome you back."
Li Yu nodded habitually, while Lu Fan politely replied, "Then I'll have to trouble City Lord Liyang."
Li Yang led the way, with Lu Fan, Li Yu, and the Thunder Bureau members who followed Lu Fan following behind, and the group headed towards Yang City.
While everyone else went their separate ways, Zhou Xuan remained standing in place, his eyes bloodshot, his resentment growing ever stronger.
He glared fiercely in the direction Li Yu and Lu Fan had left, and said through gritted teeth:
"Don't be too smug. Even if I die, I will make you pay the price."
After saying that, Zhou Xuancai, looking unwilling, led the military personnel and quickly left the scene.
Only after the military personnel withdrew from in front of them did a few figures slowly emerge from the edge of the swamp.
Bald Wu, watching Li Yu's departing figure from afar, anxiously asked:
"It's Li Yu! What a great opportunity! Should we kill Li Yu now?"
Ice Rose, Xiao Qi, and even the heavily injured Lian Rang, all stared wide-eyed at Wu Du after hearing his words, looking at him as if he were an idiot.
They might not have known before, but they had just witnessed with their own eyes the terrifying, world-destroying flames when Li Yu activated his domain. He was a genuine, super-powerful Awakener!
Having witnessed Li Yu's power firsthand, what kind of extraordinary person would say such a thing?
Lian Rang felt a wave of despair wash over him and suddenly collapsed to the ground.
'Is this one of their top ten most notorious assassins?'
No wonder the recent assassination missions have been repeatedly unsuccessful, and even the headquarters was almost taken down.
It's likely that the mural assassin 'Shadow Pupil,' who went to assassinate Li Yu alone, has already died at Li Yu's hands.
If things continue like this, the Assassin's Guild will likely be destroyed by these people, and they won't be able to explain it to their leader. Lian Rang even feels like dying right now.
Noticing the gazes of the others, Wu touched his shiny bald head and asked somewhat awkwardly:
"What's wrong?"
"If we don't act soon, I'm afraid Li Yu will escape!"
Lian Rang glared at Wu Du with annoyance and gave the others an order:
"withdraw!"
He was afraid that if he didn't leave soon, Wu Du would anger him to death.
......
Yangcheng in Zhongzhou.
At this moment, a woman with red hair was standing next to Fu Xiyao.
It was none other than Yun Shui Ning's mother, Murong Xue.
Upon seeing Fu Xiyao, Murong Xue completed the task with lightning speed.
Then he rushed back without stopping, afraid that Fu Xiyao would leave before he could.
She didn't even have time to watch the thrilling battle for the dragon vein outside the city.
Upon returning to Yangcheng, after a brief conversation with Fu Xiyao, Murong Xue discovered that Fu Xiyao was not only obedient and well-behaved, but also got along very well with her, giving her the feeling that they had known each other for a long time.
Murong Xue and Fu Xiyao quickly established a special master-disciple relationship.
Meanwhile, Murong Xue was carefully teaching Fu Xiyao some basic skills and techniques.
Fu Xiyao had her eyes closed and was focused, diligently maintaining her low-frequency superpower as taught by Murong Xue.
After constant adjustments and attempts, she quickly found a delicate balance between complete control and subtle perception.
"Teacher, I think I did it." Fu Xiyao said softly, her voice filled with a mix of nervousness and excitement.
She was afraid that if she moved even slightly, she would break this hard-won balance.
Murong Xue narrowed her eyes slightly, gently sensing the rainwater controlled by Fu Xiyao, and then nodded in satisfaction:
“That’s right. If you use your powers like this, it will be very difficult for others to notice the anomaly hidden in the rain.”
While instructing Fu Xiyao, Murong Xue sensed the swamp in the heavy rain, and didn't forget to mock her:
“Xiyao, look at how frantically they’re fighting for it. They don’t even realize that their every move is under our ‘watchful eye’.”
Murong Xue slightly raised her chin, a hint of pride on her face, and continued:
"This is the true awakened one of the water element."
Fu Xiyao nodded with equal delight. Despite just a few simple words of instruction from Murong Xue, she could feel a significant improvement in her ability to control her superpowers.
However, Fu Xiyao quickly put away her smile. After all, she was only a second-level awakener, and even if she had mastered this control technique, there seemed to be nothing to brag about.
When Murong Xue saw that Fu Xiyao's smile had faded and her expression had darkened, she instantly guessed what had happened.
She stepped forward and gently patted Fu Xiyao's shoulder, offering heartfelt words of comfort:
"Silly girl, strength is not a problem at all."
"You possess the same unique ability as me. As long as you find the right method, your strength will naturally increase gradually."
As she spoke, Murong Xue suddenly stretched out her finger, and rainwater swirled gently around her fingertip, revealing a dagger in her hand. With another swirl, the dagger disappeared from sight.
Murong Xue seemed to be conveying some message to Fu Xiyao:
"Look, the potential of our special abilities is enormous. Given time, your achievements will be limitless."
Murong Xue smiled slightly, and couldn't help but tease, "When the time comes, you'll definitely impress your little lover."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiyao lowered her head shyly, a blush rising to her cheeks, a flicker of hope passing through her heart.
If that day ever comes, she will definitely be able to work alongside Li Yu and become his capable assistant.
Murong Xue was about to continue offering words of comfort when she suddenly paused, her brows furrowing slightly as she stared intently at Fu Xiyao's abdomen, her eyes filled with surprise.
She was overjoyed to have found Fu Xiyao, who possessed the same type of superpower as herself, but now that she has calmed down, she has noticed something amiss.
Murong Xue reached out and gently sensed Fu Xiyao's abdomen, her expression suddenly turning strange.
She looked up at Fu Xiyao and said earnestly:
"Xiyao, you are pregnant."
"What!" Fu Xiyao's face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe apple.
She stared wide-eyed at Murong Xue in disbelief, her eyes filled with panic.
But when she thought of Murong Xue's strength and supernatural abilities, she believed it most of the time. She instinctively covered her lower abdomen with both hands, her voice trembling as she said:
"I...how come I didn't notice anything at all?"
Murong Xue looked at Fu Xiyao's somewhat panicked appearance and was about to say, "You're still so young... how could you...", but she suddenly stopped herself from speaking.
Because she suddenly remembered that she herself had given birth to her daughter Yun Shui Ning at such a young age.
For a moment, Murong Xue, who had just become a master, didn't know how to begin her teaching.
After a moment of silence, she could only softly offer her words of comfort:
"Xiyao, it's okay to be pregnant."
