Chapter 1016 The Capital
Everyone in Blackwater City looked up at the giant dragon in the sky as it gradually flew out of everyone’s sight.
Lu Yu then looked at Liang Wannian and said, “Very soon, my dragon will kill the giant red rock beast. Then, the danger in the city will be completely eliminated.”
“I saved your city. You should show some grat.i.tude, right?”
Liang Wannian quickly walked toward Lu Yu. “If you can kill this red rock beast, you will definitely be the benefactor of the entire city. You can do whatever you want!”
He looked at Lu Yu excitedly. He had been in despair, thinking that no one could save them and that this giant red rock beast would destroy Blackwater City.
However, a savior came here with his dragon, turning the tide of the battle!
Blackwater City, which was in danger, suddenly became safe.
“We’ve sent out sentries to scout this red rock beast for a long time. It’s very strong. It won’t be a problem for it to destroy our city.”
“Originally, we had already accepted our fate. If the red rock beast attacked us, we would abandon the city and leave this place.”
“I didn’t expect that the heavens were blessing our city by allowing us to meet you, the master of dragons. Your help has undoubtedly helped us resolve our problems.”
“We believe the dragon can deal with the red rock beast. The two of them are on completely different levels!”
Although the red rock beast had some advantages in terms of size, it was only limited to that. Ancient dragons were stronger than other ferocious beasts in all aspects.
There were very few beasts that could compare to dragons. The beasts that could were extremely rare and definitely an existence that could not be encountered in a thousand years.
“Alright.” Lu Yu nodded slightly and said, “Now, can you hand over the teleportation scroll?”
Liang Wannian took out a scroll and presented it to Lu Yu with both hands.
Lu Yu raised his hand and took the scroll. “My dragon will be back in ten minutes at most. Then, I will leave this place.”
“Are you in such a hurry? Why don’t you rest here for a while?”
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “There’s no need. I still have something important to do, so I won’t waste any time.”
“Alright then.”
Liang Wannian said regretfully, as he wanted to keep such a legendary figure in his city for a while longer.
If he were to be guided by such a figure on the path of cultivation, it would undoubtedly be a great gift to him.
Gradually, the tremors disappeared.
The ground no longer trembled, and the quakes had almost completely disappeared. Everyone felt much more at ease, and it seemed that the red rock beast was dead.
Otherwise, this intense tremor would not have disappeared so quickly.
At this moment, the figure of the dragon appeared again in the sky.
Liang Wannian heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the Water Spirit Dragon fly back.
“Phew, the dragon must have taken care of the beast. Our Blackwater City is safe! We’re safe!”
“Inform everyone in the city that our crisis has been resolved. Everyone can come back. There’s no need for us to continue fleeing!”
Liang Wannian shouted. Immediately after, everyone ran around to tell each other the good news. The people who had been fleeing in panic all smiled happily. The crisis had been resolved, and their homes were safe now.
Such a grand and joyous occasion put all of them in a good mood.
“I’m sure I have helped you all a great deal, but I won’t stay here for too long. I’ll take my leave first.”
Liang Wannian sighed. “You’ve really helped us a lot. If you weren’t here, our family would have been destroyed.”
“Thank you. When you reach the capital, go see the king. He will definitely grant you an audience.”
“However… the king’s temper isn’t very good. If he doesn’t know how powerful you are and offends you, I hope you can be magnanimous.”
Lu Yu only smiled faintly. “How many kings have good tempers? Besides, I don’t need him to grant me an audience. If he offended me, he should pay the punishment he deserves.”
Hearing this, Liang Wannian’s heart tightened, and he felt uneasy. He feared that the king would offend the person before him.
In his opinion, Lu Yu alone was enough to fight against their entire empire!
The Tianwu Kingdom could not take down this giant dragon alone.
Moreover, Lu Yu, who could tame a dragon, was definitely not weak.
Therefore, if the king offended Lu Yu, he would end up terribly.
It was not impossible for Lu Yu to kill the king.
However, Liang Wannian, as the City Lord of a small city, naturally couldn’t change anything. His words carried little weight, so he could only silently pray.
Then, Lu Yu opened the teleportation scroll.
“Jack, go back to Hidden Dragon City. I will return soon. After I kill the three beasts, I will return there and enter the secret realm.”
Jack waved goodbye to Lu Yu and left.
In the next moment, a light flashed and surrounded Lu Yu. He disappeared from where he was.
Liang Wannian looked at Lu Yu’s disappearing figure and could not help but sigh. “Such a fleeting encounter. It’s such a pity that we only spoke for a short time. If I can see him a few more times in the future, wouldn’t that be great?”
He sighed helplessly, knowing it was already a great fortune for him to meet such a being.
“City Lord, the giant red rock beast has been killed. Its corpse is like a mountain! This is a great harvest!”
The people of Blackwater City, who were fleeing in a panic, stopped in their tracks.
Not only did they not need to escape, but they also gained a huge harvest.
When the corpses of the beast tide outside were all cut up and processed, it would not be a problem for them to eat for a year.
Everyone was overjoyed when such a good thing happened.
As for Liang Wannian, when he ordered everyone to harvest the battlefield, he also decided to build a statue here to commemorate Lu Yu’s arrival and help them defend the city.
…
With a flash of light, Lu Yu reappeared on a brick road. Tall brick buildings surrounded him, and many busy pedestrians were on the street.
The clothes of the people here were still relatively old and not modern.
Lu Yu still felt like he had traveled through time in ancient times.
This was the capital, so at the very least, the scale of the buildings here was astonishing. Palaces were built one after another, and the entire capital occupied a relatively large area.
In the center of this city was the imperial palace. It was heavily guarded and difficult for ordinary people to get close.
Lu Yu hurried toward the palace after asking for directions.
The Disaster Lizard resided near the Tianwu Kingdom. Therefore, if Lu Yu wanted to hunt with the lizard, he had to get in touch with the Tianwu Kingdom and understand the situation of his target.
