Chapter 0394: Cangxue Qingfeng
Wu Yu decided to go crazy at this point.
However, this was also what they expected from someone of his nature.
Actually, if Wu Yu could pin down the Black Fiend here, then the pressure on Huangfu Pojun would lessen significantly when he returned to the blue spirit ore mine.
Of course, Huangfu Pojun also respected Wu Yu. He had not been able to take down the Black Fiend, while Wu Yu had taken down the White Fiend singlehandedly. Just on this point alone, even he was not qualified to stop Wu Yu from inviting single combat.
He had hesitated for a moment out of concern for Wu Yu's life.
However, Yan Huang Imperial City was Yan Huang Imperial City. No matter how much he valued Wu Yu's talent, and wanted to keep him safe and away from the risk, if you changed your perspective, how could there be elite talents without any danger?
Besides, Wu Yu had sufficient battle experience.
The Black Fiend had threatened the safety of his kin. Huangfu Pojun was thinking that if he were in Wu Yu's shoes, he would do the same.
After all, he knew that Wu Yu's hometown was not far from here. Given the Black Fiend's capabilities, he would find them very easily. After all, the Dong Yue Wu Kingdom was too big a target.
"I will save my words for the rest. I hope to see you return safely and take your 150,000 merits in Yan Huang Imperial City. Although it is not much, it is still an honor."
Merits were the most important currency for rising to chiliarch. Ability alone could not help you rise there.
"No problem!" Wu Yu answered directly. This decisive response earned Huangfu Pojun's respect as well. Next, Wu Yu addressed his brothers and sisters of Heaven's Equal Camp, bidding them listen to Huangfu Pojun's instructions.
"Commander Wu, go ahead and kill the enemy with peace of mind! We will definitely not let you worry!" Wu Tianyu said, his eyes red.
"The most important thing is to live. If you die, you can't become immortal," Fang Chaoqun reminded. He had once asked this question of Wu Yu: what is the most important thing to remember in the path to immortalhood? Wu Yu had answered: to live.
Wu Yu laughed. "Living is just a prerequisite. But there are some things that one cannot compromise on, even if it costs your life. Otherwise, what would be the point of becoming immortal?"
This was a fresh response he poised to Fang Chaoqun.
After saying thus, he did not linger. He and his 100 doppelgangers left as one. When Wu Yu transformed the Yan Huang Immortal Armor into ordinary clothing, and did not wield the Yan Huang Heaven Raising Staff, making it difficult to discover which was the real him from appearances alone.
As he left, he turned to wave. Huangfu Pojun stayed no longer, but steered the Yan Huang Warship away.
After all, if the Yan Huang Warship remained, the Black Fiend would only continue to escape.
After the Yan Huang Warship left, Wu Yu and his 100 doppelgangers dispersed forward. This way, it was as though Wu Yu had 100 pairs of eyes. If any doppelganger met the Black Fiend, he would know the Black Fiend's location!
"Black Fiend, I chase you alone. If you have the guts, stop running.
"I don't like to hear people threaten my kin or friends. If you have such an intention, then resolve things with me.
"The Yan Huang Warship has already left. Only I am left here now."
All his doppelgangers and him echoed the same words, and his voice echoed back and forth, sending forth his wish.
Wu Yu's 100 pairs of eyes were very intently scanning their surroundings.
This patch of sea was different from the sea around the blue spirit ore mine. The seawater here was turbid, a murky yellow. Upon closer look, the water was emitting sparks, as though the entire ocean was on fire.
Wu Yu realized something. "If even water can burn, that shows how hot it is. It's truly a miracle. Or perhaps this is not even water."
Because the seawater was muddy and dim, visibility was very limited. The Black Fiend had vanished without a trace in this area, but instinct told Wu Yu that after he discovered that the Yan Huang Warship had stopped, the Black Fiend would probably not continue fleeing.
