Lu Yu’s heart trembled. The origin of the freezing aura of Lake Ice Abyss was right here!

He wanted to enter it to explore, but at this moment, the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon sent him a signal. It indicated that this spring source was dangerous beyond measure and that he would be at risk of losing his life at any time once he entered.

And it was through this spring source a hundred years ago that the flood dragon advanced to become an S-class Fearsome Beast. Even so, as long as it got close to an inch, that freezing cold aura tormented it until it almost died from the pain.

“It is more important to complete the array formation first and seal this blood-sucking wasteland.” Lu Yu murmured and left Lake Ice Abyss.

The moment he emerged, he could sense the poisonous gas of this blood-sucking wasteland had become denser and more powerful than before. It spread out in the direction of Lunan City and the whole sky turned dim and gloomy.

What was even more terrifying was the astounding evil aura of the Fearsome Beasts coming from the direction of Lunan City. Looking at the city from afar, he could only see a towering evil aura enveloping the entire Lunan City.

“Mr. Lu, you’ve finally come out.” Zhou Zhongzheng grumbled with a grumpy look when he saw Lu Yu emerge.

He was there setting up the array formation all by himself. For the whole day, he had only completed half of the formation. They were way behind schedule.

At this point, this area was covered with array flags. In one corner of its center, an array formation eye was slowly forming, condensing the power of the earth elemental force, glowing with a yellowish light.

With the addition of Lu Yu, the setting up of the array formation sped up a lot and was gradually nearing completion. An hour later, in the eastern corner of the horizon, the power of the earth elemental force billowed violently, like a raging tidal wave, and it formed a series of tsunamis.

A yellow light shield swept across the sky rapidly like the arms of a giant, gathering all the poisonous gas.

The array formation on the black-clad woman’s side was already fully set up.

At this moment, the black-clad woman’s brow frowned slightly. Looking to the western side, near the direction of Lunan City, she looked puzzled. “The array formation over there is not completed yet?”

Ying Qufeng said, “They must have been delayed by something.”

The black-clad woman said, “Patriarch Wang, can you go over there to check on their progress?”

Wang Bo reluctantly went to Lu Yu’s side and saw that Lu Yu and Zhou Zhongzheng had already completed a large part of the array formation. He bowed his head to Lu Yu and said, “Er… Mr. Lu, may I ask when you will be able to finish up here?”

Lu Yu, who was engrossed in setting up the array formation, waved his hand and said in an icy tone, “Do I still need to report to you when I can finish?”

“Er… right…” Wang Bo’s posture went lower and lower. The moment he turned to leave, his face darkened.

After reporting the situation to the black-clad woman, the black-clad woman’s brow finally relaxed a little. At this point, a yellow light shield gradually emerged in the western edge of the sky, churning and roiling with despotic force.

“It’s done. Hahaha…” Ying Qufeng laughed excitedly. Not only would the poisonous gas of the blood-sucking wasteland be contained, but Lunan City operated by the Ying Family would also not turn into a poison city.

More importantly, their plan was also being completed gradually. Ying Qufeng said with a sneer, “Aunt, this time even if the gods come, they won’t be able to save Lu Yu. He’s dead for sure!”

At this moment, the black-clad woman also said in an icy tone, “People who dare to go against our Ying Family have never survived.”

“Er… er…” Wang Bo perceived something from the conversation between these two people, and suddenly widened his eyes. Unable to contain his ecstatic mood, he said excitedly, “My lord, you mean this array formation is not just to isolate the poisonous gas, but also a killing strike to deal with Lu Yu?”

“Hoho! From now on, there will be no more Lu Yu in this world. From now on you will be one of the agents of my Ying Family in Lunan City, so you should do your best.” Ying Qufeng patted Wang Bo’s shoulder and said meaningfully.

“Your humble subordinate will definitely do a good job and live up to your expectations.” Wang Bo was overjoyed and hurriedly kowtowed.

If he could get into the Ying family’s good books, he would be able to lord it over everyone in Lunan City. More importantly, without Lu Yu, Lunan City would be under the complete control of the various powerful families again.

On the other side,

the last piece of the array formation was finally completed. The eye of the formation was completely formed, and the power of the earth elemental force spurted out through the eye of the formation, forming an earthy yellow veil of light that spread towards the sky. It then merged with the earthy yellow veil of light coming from the other side.

With a thunderous boom, rings of ripples spread across the sky, as if a giant bowl was turned upside down to cover the entire blood-sucking wasteland. And it was still gradually expanding.

The lingering poisonous gas at this moment was being contained within this ‘giant bowl’ and was unable to seep out at all.

The intense poisonous gas which gathered under the earthy yellow light veil was so thick that it blocked out vision. Zhou Zhongzheng hurriedly swallowed an antidote pill and hurriedly said, “Mr. Lu, it’s not good for us to stay long in this place. We’d better leave quickly.”

Otherwise, under such a huge amount of poisonous gas, even Lu Yu, with his Poison Immunity skill, would find it hard to escape unscathed.

Lu Yu took a look at the location of the exit recorded in the array formation diagram. He came to the southwest corner and tried opening the exit, but he only found that the light veil in front of him simply shuddered slightly, jolting his arm until it became numb.

There was no exit at all!

“Mr. Lu, can you check once more? Did you take a wrong turn?” Zhou Zhongzheng reminded him.

“It’s impossible to make a mistake. I’ve verified this array formation diagram more than ten times.” Lu Yu shook his head and tried to open the exit again, but the whole light veil still remained as solid as a city fortress.

Lu Yu’s frown gradually deepened. After thinking for a moment, his expression turned troubled. “I think I have been tricked by that black-clad woman. She is trying to trap me in the array formation and push me to death, and you are just a sacrificial pawn.”

“Impossible, this is not possible at all. I am the Inspector. They can’t possibly sacrifice me in order to deal with you.” Zhou Zhongzheng’s expression became more and more flustered. Suddenly, he let out an angry roar.

As he had inhaled excessive poisonous gas, his face gradually turned ashen white. Then contorted with fury, he appeared more sinister.

Lu Yu said in an icy voice, “Don’t think so highly of yourself. You are just an inspector with no background. If you die, it’s no big deal. In the eyes of the Ying family, your death or life is irrelevant.”

Realization hit Zhou Zhongzheng’s head with a boom. He knew that what Lu Yu said was right, but for a while, he just could not accept the result. Resentment, shock and rage gradually gathered in his chest and turned into hatred.

“Why? Why are they doing this to me?” Zhou Zhongzheng knelt on the ground and roared up to the sky, like a wild beast gone berserk. He was not only filled with anger, but also with resentful suffering.

In the end, he lowered head abjectly. With a deathly-pale face, he began laughing bitterly in a self-deprecating manner.
