Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111 The Battle Ends
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lu Yu watched as the Void Fish wreaked havoc on the Poison Dragons, but a frown creased his brow. While they were causing significant damage, achieving a complete victory with them alone seemed unlikely.
âThe Void Serpent would make quick work of them,â he mused, âbut its immense size could trigger widespread panic in the city.â
Opting for a more controlled approach, Lu Yu drew his Star Piercing Demonic Sword. With a resounding, âStar Piercing Spike!â he unleashed a dazzling light that tore through the air, impaling the Poison Dragon directly through its head, abdomen, and tail. The creature erupted in a violent explosion, showering the battlefield in gore.
The leader of the enemy forces, a hulking figure with a crimson eye patch, roared in fury. âDamn you! Youâll pay for that!â
He unleashed a torrent of poison from the Poison Dragon he commanded, but Lu Yu reacted swiftly.
A beam of sword energy effortlessly deflected the noxious liquid, leaving the leader sputtering in frustration.
âAccept reality!â Lu Yu boomed, his voice echoing across the battlefield. âThe gap in our power is insurmountable! You all face certain doom!â
âDonât be ridiculous!â the leader retorted. âWe wonât fall to a single opponent!
The humiliation of such a defeat would haunt us eternally.â
A smirk played on Lu Yuâs lips. âFear not,â he said, âyour shame will die with you. Iâll ensure that.â
He tightened his grip on his Star Piercing Demonic Sword, readying the final blow.
âDonât underestimate us!â The leader roared, his defiance unwavering. âEven with one dragon down, we wonât surrender! We fight until our last breath!â
If they were to lose now, all the preparations they had made would be in vain.
Seeing the leaderâs unwavering resolve, Lu Yu sighed internally. âFine,â he muttered, âtraditional methods are proving tedious. Time to unleash the Fire Spirit Dragon.â
With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the Fire Spirit Pearl high into the air. In a blinding flash, a colossal figure materializedâthe Fire Spirit Dragon. Its immense size dwarfed even the remaining Poison Dragons.
The moment the Fire Spirit Dragon appeared, the ambient temperature skyrocketed, warping the very air itself.
Its crimson scales glowed ominously, sending shivers down the spines of the enemy soldiers below. Panic erupted as they cast aside their weapons and armor, fleeing for their lives.
The leader of the Demon Lord Abyss army gaped in disbelief. âCowards! Get back here! Stand your ground!â He bellowed, his voice laced with desperation.
But his commands fell on deaf ears. His own confidence wavered as he gazed into the Fire Spirit Dragonâs fiery eyes, his bravado melting away into raw fear.
âNow, do you have any last words?â Lu Yu inquired, his voice laced with a hint of finality.
The leader, his bravado shattered, stammered, âI⊠I have nothing to offer in my defense. But one question lingers in my mind. Who are you? Why lend a hand to Skyplume City? Our intel indicated Skyplume wouldnât have such a powerful guardian! You definitely donât hail from here.â
He speared Lu Yu with a desperate gaze, seeking an answer.
âIndeed, Iâm not from Skyplume,â Lu Yu confirmed coolly. âMy background is of no concern to you. You need only understand one thing-your demise is imminent.â
With a fearsome roar, the Fire Spirit Dragon unleashed a torrent of fire from its maw. The inferno engulfed the nearest Poison Dragon, consuming it whole in a destructive blaze. The rider met a fiery end as well, reduced to charred remains that plummeted to the earth.
The remaining Poison Dragons scattered in panic, their bravado replaced by a primal fear for survival. The Fire Spirit Dragon flapped its colossal wings, returning to Lu Yuâs side.
Alighting on its back, Lu Yu patted the creatureâs flank with a satisfied smile. âExcellent work. The task was dispatched with remarkable ease. The ground troops are in full retreat, and the aerial threat has been neutralized. It seems the Demon Lord Abyss isnât as formidable as anticipated.â
With a mental command, Lu Yu recalled both the Fire Spirit Dragon and its pearl. He then turned his focus back to Skyplume City.
Soaring above the city walls, he marveled at the sprawling cityscapeâa dense tapestry of buildings stretching out as far as the eye could see.
Lu Yu began his descent, reaching his destination, a villa nestled within the urban area.
Inside the villa, Zhao Qingya paced restlessly, her brow furrowed with worry. A sudden gust of wind heralded Lu Yuâs arrival.
Seeing him land safely, she rushed over, relief washing over her features. âLu Yu, youâre back! How did it go? Are you hurt? Did you encounter any resistance?â
Lu Yu offered a reassuring head shake. âThe enemy has been dealt with definitively.â
âDealt with already? But you were only gone for less than half an hour!â Zhao Qingya exclaimed, disbelief coloring her voice.
Lu Yu shrugged nonchalantly. âIndeed, itâs over. Itâs time for me to resume my rest. The Demon Lord Abyss forces have been eliminated, and the ground troops have fled in terror. Peace has returned.â
Zhao Qingya took a deep breath, her initial skepticism giving way to acceptance. âThis is unexpected. Your strength is truly beyond compare. I underestimated you considerably.â
âHe single-handedly defeated the enemy! It appears the hunting team has unearthed a hidden gem,â she remarked with a newfound respect, a hint of amusement dancing in her eyes.
Lu Yu then turned his attention to Jiang Xun. âContinue diligently with taming your Frost Dragon. Donât let up. If the opportunity arises, Iâll find a prestigious academy to refine your skills. Remember, when you reach the pinnacle of your career on the hunting team, you stand with me.â
Jiang Xun saluted smartly. âConsider it done, boss!â he declared with a burst of laughter.
Zhao Qingya observed their interaction, a sigh escaping her lips. âThat boy has exceptional luck. Speaking of which, if youâre open to taking on more disciples, I wouldnât mind recommending my nephew.â
âContinue putting in the effort,â Lu Yu acknowledged. âIâll assess your performance in this battle and award you appropriate honors and promotions.â âA captaincy at the very least, wouldnât you agree?â She proposed playfully.
Lu Yu chuckled, shaking his head. âNot necessary. How about this? Iâll take on the position of deputy chief of the Southwest Patrol Department. What do you
Zhao Qingyaâs expression turned serious at his suggestion. âDeputy chief? In that case⊠well, it wouldnât be entirely impossible, but such a rapid promotion is quite unprecedented..â
