Chapter 922 The Enemy’s Greed
“The three of you… what’s your relationship with each other?”
Shirley asked doubtfully, as they were a party of two women and a man. It was hard to determine their relationship.
“They’re my friends. They came out to travel with me.”
Shirley nodded. “Alright, go ahead and live in that villa. There are three rooms there.”
She pointed at a two-story villa.
Lu Yu did not expect their accommodation problem to be resolved as soon as he entered the city.
“Why don’t we go and have dinner first? It’s getting a little dark.”
Shirley suggested.
“We’ll just eat around the city.”
Lu Yu rejected her offer.
“Come and eat with our family. It’s fine. My parents can also meet you.”
Helen poked Lu Yu’s arm. “You’re meeting her parents. Do your best.”
Lu Yu looked at her weirdly. “What are you trying to say? Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Let’s go. Let’s go.”
Lu Yu and the other two followed Shirley to the dining room.
The grandiose dining room was decorated with precious flowers and pristine white walls.
The four of them pushed open the door and walked in together. They saw that there were already some people sitting in the dining room, and the dishes on the table had yet to be touched.
After Lu Yu entered, he looked at the seats. There were a total of fourteen to fifteen of them. It seemed that there were quite a number of people in this family.
Shirley added three chairs for Lu Yu and the rest to sit on.
“They aren’t from Green Sea City; they are travelers.”
“Look carefully,” Shirley continued, “does he look like an ordinary traveler?”
Instantly, everyone at the dining table looked over.
When they saw Lu Yu’s appearance and clothes, they immediately realized that Lu Yu was not from the same era as them.
“I see. That’s a rare one. It’s fine for them to be invited for us to look at him.”
Shirley quickly looked at Lu Yu. From their previous interactions, she knew that Lu Yu had a bad temper, so she was afraid he would lose his temper.
They were all born into wealth and were inherently arrogant. If they were provoked even a little, their anger and the urge to teach others a lesson would flare up.
Lu Yu didn’t care much and smiled. “h.e.l.lo, everyone. My name is Lu Yu. I’m grateful for Shirley bringing us here for dinner.”
“Our dinner is not something that just anyone can eat. In Green Sea City, only those deserving can sit at this table!”
The man looked at Lu Yu and declared proudly.
“My name is Bart, Shirley’s cousin.”
Lu Yu did not look at him. Instead, he focused on the food on the table.
Being ignored turned Bart’s expression a little ugly.
He rubbed his golden hair, annoyed.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a long white robe walked in. He naturally sat on the main seat and looked at the people at the dining table.
“Now, everyone, eat.”
He raised his hand and started dinner.
He turned to look at Lu Yu.
“And this is?”
“Dad, his name is Lu Yu. He’s my friend, a traveler from the outside world.”
Shirley quickly explained.
“Is that so? That’s a strange one. Boy, where are you from exactly?”
He looked at Lu Yu with a smile.
However, the middle-aged man smiled and shook his head.
“No, we will be there in the future. Not only will we head over, but we will also occupy the place. I’m planning to buy a large gra.s.sland there and raise hundreds of thousands of livestock.”
There was a hint of pride in his tone, as if he had already decided to occupy Lu Yu’s planet in the future.
Hearing this, Lu Yu was furious. This guy knew about the Ember Empire’s plan!
It seemed he was very much in favor of the Ember Empire’s invasion!
“We’re just joking. We’ll stay here. After all, the family business here is so important.” Shirley quickly added.
“I, Herbert, have always been a man of my word. When the Ember Empire’s cavalry sets off, we will follow them! I really want to see what this world has become and whether it meets my satisfaction!”
Lu Yu sneered disdainfully. “You probably won’t be able to see that day.”
Herbert smiled proudly. “Don’t think that your world has become stronger after a few thousand years. You’ll know when our army attacks.”
These words were obviously a show of strength for Lu Yu.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the dining table was a little tense.
Everyone here was on Herbert’s side. They looked at Lu Yu as if they wanted to pressure him into submitting.
Shirley was a little fl.u.s.tered. “Can you not treat my friend like this? You’ll make him angry!”
Bart immediately retorted, “You’ve only known him for a day, and you’re already friends? Do they even treat you as a friend?”
“Don’t friends start off as strangers? What’s wrong with me saying that?”
Shirley retorted.
Suddenly, Herbert slammed the table angrily. “Don’t speak for an outsider! The people here are your family and are supposed to be your number one priority!”
Shirley heard this and sat in her seat without saying a word. She seemed a little aggrieved.
Lu Yu raised his head and looked at Herbert.
“You people are really p.i.s.sing me off. I’m considering whether to kill you.”
Helen immediately grabbed Lu Yu’s arm. “Don’t be rash!”
“I’m very calm,” Lu Yu retorted.
Herbert burst out laughing. “Are you kidding me? You don’t know where you are sitting, do you?”
“You want to kill us? Are you even awake? Do you really think you are capable of doing so? Ridiculous!”
He started to mock Lu Yu.
Lu Yu did not intend to waste any more time with these ants.
Swoosh!
The Void Evil Blade suddenly appeared and hovered above Lu Yu’s head.
The sudden appearance of a strange purple sword ignited the tense atmosphere!
Herbert looked at Lu Yu and roared, “What are you doing? Do you want to fight us? You’re courting death!”
Bart also shouted, “Shirley, look at what you’ve done. You’ve invited a wolf into your house!”
“Calm down; we won’t be fighting!” Shirley quickly comforted them.
However, her words did not work, as Herbert and the others took out their weapons and prepared to attack Lu Yu.
Swoosh!
The next moment, the Void Evil Blade flew out and slashed rapidly. Almost in an instant, it returned to Lu Yu’s side.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
The weapons in everyone’s hands were split into two and fell to the ground.
They couldn’t even see what happened, and their weapons were all destroyed.
“What? When?”
