An Epic Meeting of Pawns / Old Friends Reunite; Seeing Ding Yumi Again
But soon, Lu Mei keenly sensed an uncomfortable gaze upon her. She frowned and looked at Jun Yaojin beside her, who was also looking over, apparently having noticed her as well.
The two glanced discreetly towards the source of their gaze and spotted the strange group of four. The man in the middle, wearing a silver leather jacket, smiled at them with ill intent.
Seeing this, Lu Mei sensed something unusual about the man in the leather jacket and whispered to Lu Jun, "Look at those people over there, they keep staring at me, and their eyes are a bit..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jun felt uncomfortable. Anyone would get angry if their girlfriend was being deliberately leered at.
He had already noticed the four people, including the man in the silver leather jacket. Despite their strange appearance, their strength surprised him; they were all considered upper-middle-tier experts among the Super Rank.
When did such a powerful international Super Rank cultivator secretly enter the borders of Kyushu?
Lu Jun did not recognize the four people. After all, no matter how well he understood the original work, the real characters were always different, and in this vast world, there were countless beings, not just those few characters.
However, that doesn't stop me from teaching the man in the silver leather jacket a lesson.
He snorted coldly, releasing the suppression of his vast aura. Instantly, a layer of platinum-gold luster rose between his flesh and blood, with metallic Divine Mark emerging, and a supreme and noble edge overflowing.
Originally, Ba Shaliao wanted to find out who Lu Jun was and how he could win the favor of two beauties, but when he glanced over, the dazzling platinum brilliance was so captivating that it filled his entire field of vision.
Ah!
The man in the silver leather jacket Ba Shaliao, screamed and staggered to the ground, covering his eyes with his hands, two streams of bloody tears flowing down his face.
The passengers present were filled with surprise and doubt, all looking over to see what had happened.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Jun remained expressionless. With a thought, the Azure Star Sea of Mind Element trembled, and strange fluctuations spread, obscuring Lu Mei and the other two.
Suddenly, the surrounding crowd felt something was missing, and then completely forgot about Lu Jun and his two companions who had originally been in the group.
Under Lu Jun's superb Mind Magic, they became ordinary and unremarkable. Passersby would simply ignore them, and even when strolling through a crowded airport, the crowd would automatically part to make way for them without anyone noticing.
At the same time, Lu Jun had a sudden inspiration. With One Thought Constellation, Soul Control Release, and manipulated a Mysteries aura to quietly infiltrate the minds of the four people in silver leather jackets.
Since he mastered the Mind Element Super Rank magic True Dreamscape, he has become increasingly adept at using various methods to control souls and tamper with memories. Why not try it out on these people?
He attempted to peer into the memories of the four people, not only to examine the good and evil of the man in the silver leather jacket, but also to learn about his origins and monitor them. Such a powerful figure, once he unleashed his power, would be extremely destructive, and must be guarded against.
A moment later, triggered by the fluctuations released by Lu Jun, the four people's minds and souls underwent strange changes, with a demonic shadow appearing in the shadows of their minds.
Secondary personalities split off, each grinning wickedly, constantly working together to extract the host's memories and transmit them to Lu Jun.
Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief. None of the four were of the Super Rank in the Mind Element, otherwise they would have definitely noticed something amiss.
Lu Jun then gradually learned the names of the four men: the man in the silver leather jacket, the man in the silk robe, the short man, and the pot-bellied Gold Tooth man. His expression turned astonished, and he murmured, "So it was them."
The Silver Ornament Society leader Ba Shaliao, and three high-ranking members of the Dailang Association, ranked from the top leader to the third leader: the Red Ornament Society leader, the Man in Colorful Clothes; the Black Ornament Society leader, Taike; and the Gold Ornament Society leader, Gold Tooth!
It can be said that all of Su Lu's shady forces came out in force.
He vaguely remembered that Ba Shaliao Ice Element Super Rank cultivator with extremely high cultivation. He had once nearly killed Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue, and also had a unique, perverse taste. He was extremely lecherous and skilled at torturing and killing women.
Of course, at that time Mo Fan was only at the High-level Completion and had not yet reached the Super Rank, while Mu Ningxue had only just reached the Super Rank of Ice Element.
This event occurred approximately one year after the Original Timeline.
Su Lu led the entire Asian Magic Association to attack the Black Dragon Emperor who was sleeping in the Tyrant Mountain Range of Italy, enslaving him. The Silver Ornament Society Master, Ba Shaliao, made outstanding contributions to this effort.
Ba Shaliao was responsible for collecting the Titan Heart and the Human Young Child's Heart from various countries, a task stained with blood.
But the other party didn't fare much better. Mo Fan caught him red-handed and reported him, Su Lu coldly abandoned him, dying tragically on the spot.
As for the other three, Lu Jun happened to know a little about them; they were the people who appeared in the incident two or three years after Su Lu killed Feng Zhoulong in the Fusion Magic event in the Original Timeline.
Unfortunately, Mo Fan had already mastered magic by then, possessing almost all Super Rank and Heavenly Seed Method, and even specializing in two level-two techniques, wielding Fusion Method. He instantly killed the three of them, making them look like mere minions.
Even disregarding the Demonization forms of both sides and the Ancient King Armor Robe —those forbidden trump cards of Emperor-level — Lu Jun is currently only on par with Mo Fan.
"Heh heh heh, none of them are any good. What are they up to in Kyushu?"
Lu Jun sneered repeatedly, his expression playful. To be honest, he wasn't afraid of these people, or even Su Lu.
The Black Dragon Emperor and Feng Zhoulong incidents are indeed disgusting. The former has nothing to do with him, and the latter will most likely not happen again in this lifetime.
But if anyone dares to provoke him, he won't hesitate to eliminate Su Lu.
"In that case, let's add some more ingredients."
As soon as Lu Jun felt Killing Intent arise, he immediately detonated the two Metal Element light that remained in the eyes of the silver-leather-clad man Ba Shaliao.
On the other side, Ba Shaliao rubbed his injured eyeball and screamed, "Damn it, it's definitely him..."
He recalled Lu Jun's appearance and a desire for revenge arose in his heart. The man with the potbelly Gold Tooth teeth beside him frowned and said, "Ba Shaliao, don't forget our mission. Be careful of that person's punishment."
"Don't worry, I won't ruin anything." Ba Shaliao said with a twisted expression, "I just want to find that man after the mission, kill him, take his girlfriend, and make him watch helplessly as his girlfriend is violated and killed."
Before long, he was suddenly shocked to find that the faces and figures of Lu Jun and the other two in his memory were gradually becoming blurry.
When Ba Shaliao looked back in the direction where Lu Jun and the other two had originally been, it was now filled with other crowded passengers. After scanning his surroundings, he couldn't find many people with his spiritual senses; it was completely empty.
"This... how is this possible? No..."
Ba Shaliao frantically tried to recall his memories, but there was no trace of them. He had forgotten a lot, and cold sweat poured down his face. He couldn't help but wonder if he had encountered some bizarre event beyond the reach of normalcy.
Just as he was about to ask his three companions, he suddenly felt a sharp, intense pain in his eyes.
Thud! Thud!
Two sounds of flesh tearing apart rang out, Ba Shaliao screamed in agony, his voice echoing throughout the airport. He collapsed to the ground, his eyes numb, unable to perceive anything, yet the stinging pain did not stop, instead relentlessly drilling deeper into his mind.
Chapter 486 The Epic Meeting of the Tool Man
The three men, including the one in the silk-clad man, watched this scene in shock.
They watched helplessly as Ba Shaliao's eyes suddenly exploded, and hot blood splattered all over their heads.
Ba Shaliao's face was riddled with bloody holes, so empty it sent chills down one's spine.
Gold Tooth Ba Shaliao writhing in agony on the ground, and noticing that the commotion had attracted the attention of the airport's sorcerers, Jin Ya gritted his teeth, scooped Ba Shaliao up, and his figure was ghostly, filled with a dark aura.
The two then vanished from the spot, leaving only a voice behind. "You two hurry and leave, don't attract the attention of Jiuzhou."
Gold Tooth is one of the few Super Rank monsters that has survived several rounds against Da Cheng Mo Fan, and it is most skilled in Lightning Element and Shadow Element.
The man in the silk robes and the short boy Taike's expression changed, and they hurriedly used their unique magic to leave.
Airport staff were unable to apprehend many people, and even the traces of them were erased.
Lu Jun stood at a distance, deep in thought. He was mindful of harming innocent people and did not make a move in the crowded airport, planning to wait until the group reached a deserted area before taking action.
He calculated the time and, recalling the Moth Woman incident, roughly guessed the purpose of the Dailang Association's arrival in Kyushu.
"Su Lu ..."
Lu Jun muttered to himself, shaking his head. Su Lu yearned to become the emperor of humanity, and would stop at nothing to achieve it. Sooner or later, such a person would clash with the Nine Provinces.
"The Metal Element's sharp edge is enough to give Ba Shaliao a run for his money."
His gaze was profound. Ever since the essence of Metal Element spontaneously gathered in his body, he had developed a strange phenomenon. His entire body was sharp and radiant, as if he contained a peerless divine weapon, constantly being hammered by heaven and earth. Killing Intent arose, he would take the initiative to annihilate all enemies.
He usually suppressed his strength, but when he loosened it slightly, he instantly severely injured a Super Rank expert.
"I wonder how powerful it will be once the Metal Element Calamity Talent is fully developed."
Lu Jun pondered, if life and death involve the mysteries of life and death in the forbidden zone of humanity, and are supremely Mysteries, Water Element involves the basic construction of the world, capable of causing earth-shattering natural disasters, and is extremely important, then the Metal Element may represent the strongest Killing Power.
"It's becoming increasingly inhuman. It seems that the ascension of both Mental Power needs to be put on the agenda, otherwise it will be difficult to bear this immense power."
He sighed, then called his sister Lu Mei and the two women to leave.
Lu Mei quietly observed Lu Jun's actions, realizing that the men in silver leather jackets and their companions were not ordinary people, and asked in a low voice, "Who are these four people? Is there a problem?"
"These people are up to no good," Lu Jun said calmly. "Eliminate these four menaces as soon as possible."
The Dailang Association' cruel methods reminded him of the children's corpses in Fei Niao City, and his face turned cold.
He couldn't be bothered with Su Lu's actions, but if she reached out to anything he wanted, or even a relative, he wouldn't hesitate to eliminate her beforehand.
Lu Mei frowned slightly, trusting her younger brother unconditionally, and said, "When do we make our move?"
"Wait, tell them to leave the city. Let's go back to Magic City first; I need to ask them something."
"Good!"
Both siblings were decisive and ruthless; suppressing their Killing Intent, they walked out of the airport.
Soon, a black sedan pulled up to the side of the road, next to which stood a mature woman in Lolita fashion and black stockings. She had a beautiful face and a cool demeanor. When she saw Lu Jun and his two companions walk out of the airport, she smiled and waved.
Lu Mei glanced at her younger brother and gave a soft snort.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jun felt ashamed. He had called Secretary Qing Yu over because he hadn't seen her in a long time and missed such a convenient and useful person.
However, Lu Mei was too lazy to pay attention to her younger brother. She had known Qing Yu for a long time, and the two had a good relationship. She walked forward with a smile, her long legs swaying.
"Haven't seen you for a long time."
Qing Yu's beautiful face melted like ice and snow as she opened her arms and the two women embraced.
Lu Jun watched from the side, finding it quite pleasing to the eye to see the two older women with such different temperaments cuddling together.
Jun Yaojin, however, looked at the boss with a strange expression on her beautiful face. She remembered that in Parthenon, there was also a mature female judge in her thirties accompanying Lu Jun, I think her name was Tang Yue.
Damn, no wonder the new boss overlooked her beauty; he's keeping a whole host of beauties hidden away.
Little did Jun Yaojin know that her perspective was too narrow, and her shock came too early; she was about to have an even greater eye-opening experience.
Who are you?
Qing Yu released her embrace from her sister Lu Mei and looked at Jun Yaojin with a questioning expression.
She keenly sensed a strong threat emanating from this woman with exotic Western features, a devilishly slender figure, and ample breasts.
That's the scent of one of our own... hmm, the unique smell of a tool.
Qing Yu couldn't help but become wary.
"Me?" Jun Yaojin said with a smile, "My Chinese name is Jun Yaojin, Parthenon... well, never mind, it probably won't recognize me. I'm unemployed, working for the boss. Hello."
Upon hearing this, Qing Yu was alarmed: working for someone else is just being a tool; they really are here to steal jobs.
Lu Jun casually added, "Super Rank Blessing Element Mage is a rare treasure."
Qing Yu immediately felt as if it were facing a formidable enemy.
Seeing this, Lu Jun felt strange. He sensed Qing Yu's aura and found that she was still at a high level, around the first or second level of the Triple High Level. She must have broken through by using the Star River Vein purchased with the dividends from managing Manye Town.
He assumed Qing Yu was worried about not being able to keep up with her cultivation and was feeling down, so he skillfully started making empty promises:
"Don't worry, just do your job well. When you reach the bottleneck of the Super Rank, I'll give you a Star Sea Vein. If you don't believe me, just ask Jun Yaojin. I'm very generous."
"Hmm, this isn't the place to chat. Let's talk about it when we get back."
Qing Yu forced a smile, opened the car door, and let the three of them in. The car was just the right size, with Lu Jun squeezed between the two warm, soft bodies on either side.
The car slowly started moving and returned to the location of the Pearl Academy.
Lu Mei said nostalgically, "It's been so long since I've been back to Jinyuan Apartment. I wonder how Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu doing."
After she finished speaking, Qing Yu replied, "They're all doing well. They've been living in Jinyuan Apartment, but it's Mingzhu's graduation season recently, and they've been busy with graduation matters, leaving early and returning late. They'll probably move out soon and go their separate ways."
Lu Mei sighed, "Really? That's wonderful."
Lu Jun, noticing his sister's unusual mood, and knowing what she was thinking, the siblings struck up a conversation. "Sis, we haven't been back to Bo City in a long time, have we? Let's go visit her on the way."
The older sister's tone was gentle, and the corners of her mouth slightly turned up. "Okay."
Lu Jun sensed the somewhat subdued atmosphere and changed the subject, saying, "By the way, how are the industries in Manye Town doing? How much wealth have they accumulated?"
He is now practically penniless. He spent over 20 billion on purchasing the Star Sea Vein for his sister, himself, and Jun Yaojin, and also on a massive acquisition of Thought Stone, which has already gone viral.
If Lu Jun is considering building a power base and specializing in the research of Stardust Magic Tool, he'll need to get some money from Qing Yu's account to get started.
Upon hearing this, Qing Yu hesitated and said, "Well... the industrial integration and handover have been basically completed in the past two years, but it has only recently gotten on the right track, and we are still relying on your reputation."
Her tone was respectful, even admiring, clearly indicating that she had heard about the major achievements Lu Jun had made in the past two years.
It should be noted that even the American newspaper Time Magic has named Lu Jun the Magical Figure of the Year for two consecutive years, with the cover featuring him holding the crown and a photo of him fighting Medusa alone.
Chapter 487 A Reunion of Acquaintances, Seeing Ding Yumian Again
Lu Jun understood that although Manye Town was originally the territory of the Lu Family, it was no longer under their protection after the Lu Family broke away.
