My Seven Sisters Are Stunningly Beautiful (The Return of the Gods)

Manager Zhao walked with his hands behind his back to the shadow of the city wall, a shrewd look hidden in his weathered eyes.

My nephew, Zhao Dezhu, is not someone who can be bullied by anyone.

Li Tian, ​​who was about to leave, immediately lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to ask.

"Uncle Zhao, do you have an idea? Tell me how we are going to teach that kid a lesson!"

Li Tian's tone was filled with anxiety and excitement, as if he had already seen the scene of Lu Yun being frustrated.

Zhao Dezhu smiled slightly, patted Li Tian on the shoulder and comforted him.

"Don't worry about that. Just stand guard and wait for my good news. I promise I won't let him off easily."

After saying that, he turned and left with steady steps, leaving Li Tian alone there with anticipation glittering in his eyes.

However, they thought that all this was planned perfectly, but they didn't know that Lu Yun was hiding in the shadows not far away, using his superb stealth skills to hear their conversation clearly.

He said to himself with an interested smile on his face.

"What kind of tricks is this old fox playing? Why not play along with them?"

Lu Yun did not show up immediately, but quietly followed Zhao Dezhu, observing every move of the manager of the City Lord's Mansion.

Zhao Dezhu walked calmly into an exquisitely decorated shop, which was filled with all kinds of strange magic weapons and elixirs. It was obviously the famous Treasure House in the city.

Zhao Dezhu talked to the shopkeeper in a low voice. The shopkeeper's face was surprised at first, and then turned into flattery, obviously he had received some kind of promise.

Lu Yun guessed in his heart that this old man must be looking for some help or setting some trap.

He decided to find an inn, wait for the situation to develop, and prepare some countermeasures.

After checking into the inn, Lu Yun was not in a hurry to rest. He first asked the waiter to buy him a suitable set of clothes, then took out a piece of yellowed parchment and began to draw talismans.

His brushstrokes were delicate, and each one contained fluctuations of spiritual power. After a short while, a complex mysterious talisman was completed.

He put the talisman in his arms, a confident smile on his face, and thought to himself.

"If an enemy comes, we will fight him with our own army; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. I guess that old man will take action tonight."

…………

At night, the streets of Mingcheng were dimly lit and bustling with people, but Lu Yun was walking alone in the quiet alleys. His figure appeared and disappeared, like a ghost in the night wind.

At this moment, several masked men emerged silently from the darkness and surrounded him. The leader shouted in a low voice.

"Lu Yun, you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended. Tonight is the day you die!"

Lu Yun remained calm, with a sneer on his face, as if he had expected all this.

"Oh? Really? I'd like to know who sent you here."

Before he finished his words, his body shook and appeared next to a masked man like a ghost. With a flip of his hand, the man fell down silently without any power to resist.

The remaining masked men were all shocked when they saw this. They didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary young man in front of them would have such skills. Lu Yun clapped his hands lightly and said lightly.

"Zhao Dezhu, or Li Tian? Your methods are too despicable."

Just then, Zhao Dezhu's voice came from the shadows.

"My lord, good tricks, you are indeed a powerful character. But do you think you can get away with it?"

He walked out slowly, followed by a team of well-equipped guards. All of them looked aggressive and were obviously martial artists.

Lu Yun looked around, the smile on his face deepened, and he spoke slowly.

"Manager Zhao, I have no intention of becoming your enemy, but if you insist on interfering in my affairs, then I will have to accompany you to the end."

The night was falling, the stars were twinkling, Lu Yun stood on the roof, the cold wind blowing on his face, he held tightly in his hand the carefully drawn tracing talisman, his eyes flickering.

He smiled slightly and whispered: "Formation and mystery are the best cover."

As he chanted softly, the formation quietly spread out under his feet, the air twisted, the light and shadows became disordered, Lu Yun's figure seemed to blend into the night, and even his breathing became ethereal.

The mysterious talisman touched his palm lightly and turned into dots of fluorescent light, which spread into the air and completely concealed his breath.

"Manager Zhao, come out. Since you want to play so much, I will play a big game with you."

Lu Yun's voice rang out in the night sky, with a hint of playfulness and provocation.

Zhao Dezhu and others were hiding in the dark, preparing to launch a surprise attack on Lu Yun, but they did not expect that the other party seemed to have the ability to predict the future and set up a formation in advance.

They looked at each other in confusion, and Zhao Dezhu's throat tightened as he had a bad premonition.

"Who is it! Come out!"

Zhao Dezhu tried to intimidate others with his voice, but his voice trembled unconsciously.

Lu Yun's figure suddenly appeared in the night, as silent as a ghost. There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth and a cold light in his eyes.

"Manager Zhao, the game has begun."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yun waved his hands and instantly summoned the Law of Fire. Like a river of fire falling from the sky, the blazing flames directly swept over Zhao Dezhu and his group.

Flames shot up into the sky, illuminating half of the night sky. Zhao Dezhu and others struggled in the flames, screaming miserably. Unfortunately, it was too late.

Zhao Dezhu's face was full of fear and his throat was bitter. He widened his eyes and looked at Lu Yun in disbelief, squeezing out a few broken words from his throat.

"Quasi...Quasi Saint?"

Lu Yun shook his head slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with the scene, and whispered.

"Too weak. I thought it could be interesting, but it turns out it's just this ability."

There was a hint of disappointment in Lu Yun's tone, as if he was complaining that his opponent was too vulnerable.

After getting rid of Zhao Dezhu and others, Lu Yun disappeared into the night, leaving behind a charred mark and a burnt smell in the air.

He returned to the inn, closed the door gently, lay on the bed, closed his eyes and rested, muttering: "In this world, strength is king."

The next day, as the morning light began to shine, Lu Yun was meditating in his room. The noise from the outside world seemed to have nothing to do with him.

However, a rapid knock on the door and Li Tian's angry shouting broke the silence.

"Lu Yun, you bastard, come out here!"

Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He stood up, slowly opened the door, and looked at Li Tian who was furious outside the door, his eyes full of mockery.

"Why, what can I do for you, Mr. Li, so early in the morning?"

Seeing Lu Yun's leisurely look, Li Tian became even more furious. He pushed Lu Yun away, rushed into the room, and searched everywhere, as if he was looking for something, but there was no one else in the room except Lu Yun.

"Where's Uncle Zhao? What did you do to him? You lowly person, you dare to touch the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, you are dead!"

Lu Yun folded his arms, leaned against the door frame, and smiled leisurely.

"Mr. Li, please be polite. How could I know where Manager Zhao is? And, sorry, I'm not interested in knowing where he is, but I guess he might be busy 'warming himself by the fire'."

Upon hearing this, Li Tian's face turned pale and he almost jumped up. He clenched his fists, but under Lu Yun's calm gaze, he did not dare to act rashly.

"You...just wait, I won't let you go!"

Lu Yun chuckled and waved his hands, as if to drive away an annoying mosquito. "Take your time, Mr. Li. Go back and cool off first. We still have a long life ahead of us."
