Peerless Taoist

"Why?"    

"Because even I am at risk of dying here."    

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Ji Yanran took a deep breath, and her face instantly turned pale.    

Anyone who heard this news would tremble in fear.    

Lu Yu was already a top expert in this world.    

Even he was at risk of dying, let alone them.    

A moment later, Ji Yanran gradually calmed down and asked, "Could it be that you fell asleep because you were injured?"    

"You can say that," Lu Yu said in a deep voice. "You guys need to be careful. This place is filled with danger. If you're not careful, everyone will die."    

Ji Yanran took a deep breath and felt a chill run down her back.    

"We didn't mobilize many people this time. There are only ten thousand Imperial Army soldiers on this warship, and there are two commanders...." Ji Yanran looked at Lu Yu as if asking for help. "Now, I can only trouble Your Majesty Qin Huang to help me."    

Ji Yanran's pleading voice was charming.    

She slowly approached and let out a long breath. After walking in this dark place for so many days, she had long wanted to leave this place.    

Although they were of the same age, Lu Yu's status in the Heaven Realm was much higher than hers.    

Ji Yanran was not stupid. She knew that Lu Yu was the key to their escape.    

"You and I used to be classmates. You don't have to do this. I will do my best to help you."    

Lu Yu said, "I'm feeling better now. I can rest here for the next few days."    

"Thank you, Your Majesty Qin Huang!" Ji Yanran was overjoyed.    

With an expert like Lu Yu around, their chances of survival would greatly increase.    

"Someone, inform the kitchen to prepare a banquet!" Ji Yanran ordered.    

"Yes."    

The female servant outside the door quickly agreed.    

Lu Yu and Ji Yanran went to the deck.    

Outside the Divine Dragon Battleship, the deep sky was silent, and the darkness was endless. The warship was wandering aimlessly in the deep sky.    

In the center of the ship, there was a splendid hall. It was only used to entertain VIPs.    

Now, the hall was full of all kinds of delicacies. When the Great Zhou army went to war, they would prepare lots of food. There were plenty of materials on the ship.    

"These Great Zhou Imperial Guards are probably here to protect Ji Yanran," Lu Yu thought to himself.    

The people sitting in the hall were all middle-level and above officers of the Imperial Guards. These people could be considered to be hiding their true strength. Lu Yu noticed that many of them were hiding their true strength.    

To deal with a mere evil sect, there was obviously no need to deploy such a luxurious lineup.    

"Brother, let me toast you."    

The red-haired commander, Zhu Cheng, was all smiles as he held his wine cup. As he walked, he laughed out loud: "Why don't you tell us exactly how strong you are? Even using the Spirit Stone to bombard you is fine, could it be that you have some kind of top defensive treasure on you?"    

The clear wine gave off a crystal clear luster in the glass.    

Zhu Cheng's face showed an arrogant expression under the light of the wine.    

"Zhu Cheng, don't be rude. Step back!" Ji Yanran scolded coldly.    

After saying that, Ji Yanran turned around and said to Lu Yu, "This is Zhu Cheng, the commander of the Imperial Guards. He is the eldest grandson of the Zhu family."    

The Zhu family was a wealthy family in the Great Zhou.    

Its status was almost the same as the Xu family at the end of the Great Yu Dynasty, and it controlled half of the wealth of the Great Zhou.    

"Oh." Lu Yu nodded without any change in his expression, nor did he take the wine in Zhu Cheng's hand.    

Seeing this scene, Zhu Cheng's face gradually darkened.    

"What? Brother, are you not going to give me some face?" Zhu Cheng said in a deep voice.    

A sharp killing intent burst out from his body like a dragon and tiger.    

Lu Yu, who was beside Zhu Cheng, suddenly raised his head and said coldly:    

"Who do you think you are to ask me to give you face?"    

"How dare you try to kill me? Do you want to die?"
