Peerless Taoist

After Nangong Chu and Hu Tianxing left Lu Yu's residence, their faces gradually became gloomy.    

"This kid has such an arrogant tone. He actually doesn't even put Su Gaoming in his eyes. Does he think that he can ignore the heroes of the world just because he suppressed Qiao Wang?" Hu Tianxing said in a low voice, his eyes filled with disdain.    

Nangong Chu still had a calm and collected appearance as he said indifferently, "Anyone who can become the master of the world is definitely not a simple person. It seems that this person has already seen through our intentions. He wants to rely on his own strength to fight for the world."    

"With just him?"    

Hu Tianxing immediately laughed, "Although he has some ability, he is only at the True Core Realm. If his strength is not enough, what can he use to fight against us?"    

Nangong Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, "Why should we fight with him? Since this person has provoked Su Gaoming, then we should let him fight with Su Gaoming. If he has the ability, it would be best to attract Su Gaoming's attention. That would be the best."    

...    

The next day, early in the morning.    

Fu Hongfeng came to the residence personally to pay a visit. After that, he brought Lu Yu along to the Alliance Master's residence.    

The Alliance Master's residence was the largest residence in the entire Immemorial City. It was like an imperial palace. The entire residence was built in a rather imposing manner. The tall walls, the dark red door, and the majestic Qilin stone statue lined up on both sides. There were also a large number of guards standing in front of the door. They were all the elite disciples of the Ten Thousand Mile Alliance.    

When Lu Yu followed Fu Hongfeng here, he could feel waves of powerful aura coming from this mansion.    

Among them, there were Quasi King Realm experts. Many of them had even surpassed Qiao Wang's cultivation level.    

Fu Hongfeng led Lu Yu into the mansion. The road was clear and smooth. It was obvious that the Alliance Master had already instructed him.    

However, Lu Yu could still feel a few powerful Spiritual Sense landing on his body. If Lu Yu had any ill intentions, those hidden existences would immediately attack him.    

After walking all the way to the depths of the mansion, Fu Hongfeng suddenly stopped. He turned around and looked at Lu Yu with a serious expression.    

"No matter what you see later, I hope that you can keep it a secret for us."    

Lu Yu took a deep breath and nodded.    

Seeing that Lu Yu had agreed, Fu Hongfeng made a gesture of invitation. Lu Yu immediately understood that he could only proceed forward.    

In the backyard of the mansion, there were a few locust trees. The green trees formed a shade that completely blocked the sunlight. Although it was clear and sunny, standing here gave people a gloomy feeling.    

Lu Yu walked to the locust tree and immediately saw a burly man sitting on a huge rock, seemingly meditating.    

This person was the Alliance Master he had seen yesterday!    

"Fellow Daoist Lu indeed kept his promise." The Alliance Master looked at Lu Yu and spoke in a dignified voice.    

Lu Yu, on the other hand, had a calm expression. He did not bow, but his eyes flickered as he carefully examined the burly man on the boulder.    

After a long time, Lu Yu suddenly let out a long sigh and said slowly, "Now that things have come to this, is the Alliance Master not prepared to meet with his real body?"    

The Alliance Master, who was sitting on the boulder, had a slight change in expression. He immediately revealed a bitter smile. "As expected of a third grade alchemist. What a powerful soul perception."    

As soon as he finished speaking, the leaves of the surrounding locust trees suddenly began to tremble violently, emitting rustling sounds.    

Immediately after, the burly body of the Alliance Master, who was sitting on the boulders, suddenly began to shrink violently. In a very short period of time, it transformed into an extremely dim soul.    

The appearance of the soul could still be seen clearly from the eyebrows. However, it seemed extremely thin, as if it could disappear at any time.    

This kind of soul was only half the height of a person, and its aura was extremely weak.    

"Fellow Daoist Lu Yu, we can be considered to have met with each other now." The Alliance Master let out a long sigh.    

Lu Yu was shocked. He had long expected that the Alliance Master of the Ten Thousand Mile Alliance would be severely injured, but he did not expect it to be like this.    

This was merely a soul, and it was even a residual soul.    

The current Alliance Master's condition was slightly better than the residual souls that Lu Yu had encountered before.    

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Why is Senior injured so severely?"    

The Alliance Master let out a long sigh, "A careless mistake. I was ambushed by the people of Raising Dragon Hall. Their Hall Master, Liu Zichuan, had grasped an ancient secret treasure and used a secret technique to destroy my body completely."    

"If I had not swallowed a Heavenly Treasure before and strengthened my soul, I'm afraid that even my soul would not have been able to be preserved, and I would have perished on the spot."    

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "What kind of secret treasure is that?"    

"It is powerful, extremely powerful! There is a supreme aura within it that can crush everything. Even an existence at the Eternal King Realm would have to submit in front of it." A deep shock appeared in the Alliance Master's eyes, "I still have not figured out what kind of treasure it is. However, the only thing I can be sure of is that Liu Zichuan paid a huge price to activate this secret treasure. Therefore, like me, he is unable to make a move now."    

Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat. In his mind, he suddenly thought of the Supreme Sacred Artifact.    

With his current strength, he was unable to unleash the true power of the Supreme Sacred Artifact. However, it might be different if it was an Eternal King Realm expert.    

With the power of the Supreme Sacred Artifact, a single Eternal King Realm expert was enough to kill another Eternal King Realm expert.    

"Right now, only my residual soul is left here. However, it is only a last-ditch effort." The Alliance Master let out a long sigh and said, "Fellow Daoist, you can see that the current Ten Thousand Miles Alliance has long since ceased to exist. The elders of the alliance have long since lost their loyalty. Once I die, the entire Ten Thousand Miles Alliance will collapse. At that time, this territory will immediately fall into chaos."    

Lu Yu's eyes flickered, "Senior, do you want me to treat your injuries?"    

The Alliance Master heaved a long sigh and said, "That's right! In order to conceal my weak aura, I did not ask any alchemists from Mixed Energy City. Other than my confidants, no one knows my true background. However, this is destined to be hidden for a long time. Once Liu Zichuan of Raising Dragon Hall recovers, everything will be over."    

Speaking up to this point, the Alliance Master bowed to Lu Yu and said, "Fellow Daoist, please save me. If you can save me from danger, I am willing to swear an oath to serve you as my master!"    

An Eternal King Realm expert pledged his loyalty to him!    

No one could resist such temptation.    

Lu Yu was silent. He looked at the Alliance Master and said after a long time, "Sorry, I am powerless."    

"Is that so?" A hint of disappointment appeared on the Alliance Master's face. "Since that's the case..."    

Before the Alliance Master could finish his words, Lu Yu suddenly sensed a piercing killing intent from the Alliance Master.    

"I advise you not to have any killing intent towards me."    

Lu Yu frowned and said in a deep voice, "According to my deduction, you still have at least a month of life left. I can arrange for your funeral."    

"If we fight, do you believe that you will die today?"
