Chapter 72: The Lu Family's Treasure (Part 2)
The fierce and terrifying aura had just dissipated, and everything was slowly recovering. At this moment, the entire stone platform was in a state of disarray, with uneven surfaces appearing before everyone's eyes. Almost the entire 200-meter-wide, two-meter-high stone platform had collapsed and shattered, turning into blocks of rubble.
Among the rubble, Bai Mei appeared, a halo of light surrounding him as he shielded his mouth, which was bleeding profusely. His face was deathly pale and shocked - it was Wang Guang.
A moment later, under the gaze of everyone's astonishment, Lu Shaoyou slowly stood up from a pile of rubble, his face pale, his expression dispirited, and his body also in a sorry state.
Everyone stared at this scene, all of whom were shocked and inexplicable. The judges' seats, the heads of various families, and the three Yunyang Zong executives, all stood up at this moment. The previous scene completely exceeded their expectations. Lu Shaoyou's martial skills were simply too powerful. This move was not something that a warrior of the warrior level could have come up with.
The audience was also stunned, this terrifying scene opened their eyes wide.
"Good kid, you won this round." Yun Yang Zong's white-browed elder gazed at Lu Shao Yu with a surprised look in his eyes, then put away the halo and said. Just now he was in the midst of the violent force, so naturally he understood the power of that violent force even more clearly. Probably even an ordinary first-class martial artist would be severely injured if they encountered it, and if not for himself protecting Wang Guang, Wang Guang would already be a corpse.
"Well done, young master! The young master has won!" Lu Xiaobai shouted loudly from the audience seats.
On the judge's seat, Wang family head was gloomy, his own son had been sure to win, but unexpectedly lost in the end. At this time, Lu Dong was also somewhat unbelievable, and the mysterious martial skill that Lu Shaoyou finally used was actually able to defeat a Ninth-Grade Warrior with one move.
It was obvious to everyone on the judge's bench that if it weren't for Bai Mei protecting Wang Guang, his current situation would be unthinkable.
"At least it's already at the high level of yellow rank martial skills, or perhaps it's already a Xuan rank beginner martial skill." The maid named Cuiyu on the spectator seat said lightly.
Lu Shao Yu gazed at the White Eyebrow Elder in front of him and asked softly: "Did I win?"
The white eyebrowed elder said lightly: "Not bad, you won, and it's really beyond my expectation."
"We've finally won." Lu Shao's mouth curled up into a faint smile, and he felt his vision go black as his entire body went limp and fell to the ground. After using the Vermilion Bird Fist, his true energy was completely depleted.
"Shao you." Lu Dong, Lu Wushuang immediately rushed to the stone platform.
"He's fine, just exhausted and drained, that's all. With some good rest, he'll recover." The White Eyebrow Elder said after checking on Lu Shao-yu.
The next day, in the Lu family's courtyard, looking at Lu Shaoyou lying on the bed, Luo Lan was worried.
"Musō, Shōyū, it's nothing, why haven't you woken up yet?" Rolan asked worriedly.
"Third Aunt, don't worry, Shao You is just exhausted from using up too much energy, nothing will happen to him." Lu Wushuang said, her beautiful eyes gazing at the figure of Lu Shaoyou lying on the bed. This was the same young man who had made a grand display of his prowess in the square yesterday, and whose image had been etched into the hearts of countless girls.
"Is the young master really okay? Why hasn't he woken up yet?" Lu Xiaobai was also worried.
"En." At this moment, Lu Shaoyou's eyebrows moved and he opened his eyes. His mother, Lu Wushuang, and Lu Xiaobai all appeared before him.
"Shao You, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Roland asked immediately.
Lu Shao felt a wave of fatigue wash over his entire body and immediately sat up with his upper body, saying: "Mother, I'm fine. Don't worry."
He slightly mobilized his true energy, and Lu Shao Yu examined his own body. Apart from having injuries that weren't too light, he didn't have any major issues. He estimated that after resting for a day or two, he would be fine.
"Shaoyou, you're awake, that's good. Here are three Return to Truth Pills, take them and rest for a bit." Lu Wushuang handed three Return to Truth Pills to Lu Shaoyou.
"En." Lu Shaoyou took the three Returning to Truth Pills and replied, he indeed needed to adjust his breath now, otherwise there would be no small amount of side effects on his injuries.
"Take a good rest, you're fine, Mom can be at ease now." said Luo Lan, seeing that her son was alright, she finally put down her worries.
The three of them immediately walked out of the house, Lu Shaoyou sat cross-legged on the ground, took a Return to Truth Pill and slowly began to regulate his breath.
As Lu Shaoxiu's match was over, the results of the various family competitions in Qingyun Town also became the focus of everyone's discussion after dinner, especially the last one, Lu Shaoxiu of the Lu family against Wang Guang of the Wang family, which was even more exaggerated as if it were a myth.
The Quadruple Warrior defeated the Ninefold Warrior, a result that surprised everyone. The mysterious martial art displayed by Lu Shao at the end also opened the eyes of all present, and the martial art was truly terrifying.
"Unexpectedly, that little bastard actually has such a backing." In a courtyard, Zhao Hui's expression was gloomy, yesterday's outcome was not what she wanted to see.
"Now that little brat has entered the top five, and soon he will enter Yunyang Sect. At that time, it will be even harder to deal with him." Zhao Er said.
"Hmph, I'll also go to Yunyang Sect. With Eldest Brother being in Yunyang Sect as well, it will be more convenient to deal with him later." Lu Shaohu said coldly.
"Shaohu, that little bastard must not be left alive. He's dead. From now on, the Lu family will all be yours, and the treasure of the Lu family will also be yours. So, you must think of a way to kill that little bastard within the Yunyang Sect." Zhao Hui said coldly.
"Mother, what treasure does the Lu family have? I've never heard of it before." asked Lu Shaohu.
"This girl doesn't know either, but this treasure is absolutely extraordinary. Your grandfather entrusted that this treasure must not fall into the hands of others." Zhao Hui said.
One day and one night passed, the next morning, in Lu Shaoyou's room, a dazzling light enveloped Lu Shaoyou's body, and amidst the radiance, Lu Shaoyou's face had already regained a hint of rosiness.
"Whoosh!" After exhaling a mouthful of turbid air from his body, Lu Shaoyou opened his eyes, with deep and profound light in them. A day and night of meditation, combined with the Revival Elixir, had restored him to about 70% of his original state. This time, he had completely exhausted himself, and considering that he was also seriously injured beforehand, it was already unbelievable that he could recover so quickly.
"This Vermilion Bird Seal is really formidable." Recalling the last time he used the Vermilion Bird Seal, Lu Shao had to admit that the powerful destructive force it unleashed was still astonishing to him even now.
"I'll have to be careful when using it later." Lu Shao thought to himself, the power of the Vermilion Bird Seal was immense, but the consumption of true energy was also something he couldn't afford. When facing an opponent, if one move couldn't kill them, then he would be in danger too.
