Peerless Taoist

Every mortal's heart was filled with numbness.    

After all, mortals like them were just ants in the eyes of cultivators. They were unimportant characters.    

Most of the time, if the Demonic Beast suddenly attacked and the cultivators guarding nearby found that they were unable to resist, they would retreat decisively, exposing these mortals to the sharp claws of the Demonic Beast.    

This kind of thing happened frequently.    

Even if those mortals were slaughtered by the Demonic Beast, the cultivators would not come out to rescue them.    

However, this time, everyone could see that even those cultivators couldn't protect themselves.    

Under such circumstances, Lu Yu still dared to lend a helping hand. This was no longer as simple as providing timely help.    

Countless people knelt on the ground, muttering Lu Yu's name. Their hearts were filled with gratitude.    

A portion of the power of faith crazily surged into Lu Yu's body. Lu Yu's cultivation level had actually improved a little.    

At this moment, all the cultivators standing on the Nine Tooth Great Battleship were staring at the scene in front of them with their mouths wide open.    

They saw that the huge city, along with the soil below, was lifted up by Lu Yu with his hands.    

What kind of technique was this?    

"I finally know why the Dragon King is no match for him. With this kind of strength, I'm afraid that the Dragon King will already be dead if I throw out a punch with all my strength." Li Si sighed with emotion.    

A disciple suddenly said, "Everyone, are we just going to watch helplessly? Why don't we also lend a hand?"    

The other disciples responded one after another.    

Their lives were saved by Lu Yu. Now that Lu Yu still wanted to save the others, they naturally couldn't remain indifferent.    

"I advise you all to ruin Lu Yu's good deed." Chai Longxiang suddenly stopped everyone.    

Seeing the puzzlement of the others, Chai Longxiang pointed to Lu Yu's back and said, "Although he is saving those mortals, it seems like it is not a big deal. However, it will be of great help to him. This merit can only belong to him alone. If you guys try to snatch it by force... I'm afraid he'll blame you for it."    

Only now did everyone look at Lu Yu carefully, and they discovered that a light wheel had actually appeared behind Lu Yu.    

The light wheel was sacred and solemn, and there were traces of the Great Path hidden within it. It was like a lot of gods.    

The light wheel behind the gods was formed by the incense of countless believers. The more incense offerings a god had, the brighter the light wheel on his back would be.    

But now, behind Lu Yu, there was the same light wheel.    

"Is he going to become a god?"    

"Didn't you hear what those mortals said? Build a temple for Lu Yu? This is equivalent to becoming a god."    

"He has already obtained the light wheel before he even experienced the God List. I thought that I would be able to relax my mood by helping some mortals, but I never thought that there would be such a benefit! "    

A few disciples suddenly communicated with each other, and the way they looked at Lu Yu immediately changed.    

Previously, when Lu Yu was preparing to save the mortals, although they didn't say anything, they already felt that Lu Yu was somewhat pedantic in their hearts.    

But now, these people knew that this was because they were ignorant and ill-informed.    

When cultivators do things, they always do things based on their own interests. Of course, Lu Yu was no exception.    

Saving someone would allow one to obtain many folds of merit. Since it was convenient to do such a thing, why not?    

"No wonder Vice Principal Beiming Han recommended him over. At that time, I was still unconvinced and thought that it was a fellow who took the back door. From the looks of it, we don't know who he is." A few academy disciples muttered.
