Chapter 1018 Proof of Strength

After the general of the Tianwu Kingdom's royal army swung his sword, Lu Yu easily blocked it.

He looked at Lu Yu's palm and was stunned.

"You... Who exactly are you?"

At this moment, he realized that the person in front of him was not simple.

"I told you, I'm here to help you."

"Logically speaking, I will not even know of this unknown and secretive small country of yours throughout my entire life."

"However, due to some coincidences, I came here to hunt the Disaster Lizard."

"This is a blessing from the heavens for your kingdom. If you don't cherish it, you'll be in big trouble."

The general sized Lu Yu up. "You… will hunt the Disaster Lizard? With your thin body?"

"I withstood your full-powered attack. Your strength is nothing in my eyes."

"Is this enough to convince you?"

"Pah, you may be able to withstand my attack, but that Disaster Lizard is more than a hundred times stronger than me. Its strength is like a mountain pressing down on you!"

"This is no joke. It will literally be a huge mountain pressing down on you. Its size is about this big."

"You can block my attack, but can you block that behemoth's attack?"

"Stop dreaming. You can't do it. Not only you, but no one in this world can do it!"

As he spoke, he felt more and more desperate.

"If that beast attacks our kingdom, will we be able to put up any resistance? Are we supposed to perish?"

"Our kingdom has less than ten million people. Are we going to die in the mouths of that lizard?"

He sighed in grief, feeling a darkness in his heart for the future.

It even made a man like him shed tears.

He half-knelt on the ground, his heart filled with grief.

More than half of his soldiers had been killed or injured just against a small beast tide.

If the Disaster Lizard launched an all-out attack, their sturdy city walls would be instantly destroyed!

The Disaster Lizard would trample the Tianwu Kingdom.

"You said you could kill the Disaster Lizard? I hoped that someone could kill this monster, but such a person doesn't exist!"

He claimed decisively.

Lu Yu could understand his reasoning. He had stayed here all his life and had never seen the outside world. He had never seen someone stronger than him.

Therefore, in his understanding, they would probably be trampled to death when facing the giant lizard.

Lu Yu sighed helplessly. "Let me see your king. I just want to know the exact location of the Disaster Lizard from him. After that, you just have to wait for me to deal with the lizard."

"You want to see the king? You don't have any ill intentions towards the king, do you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I came all the way here to kill your king? What am I after? For your gold?"

The general looked helpless and didn't know how to retort that.

"Alright, I can bring you to see the king. My name is Zhao Qingchen, and the king's title is King Chu Ying."

"If you see them, just greet him respectfully. If they force you to kneel down, I will explain to them."

Lu Yu nodded slightly. "Let's go in then."

"Please follow me."

He looked at Lu Yu suspiciously. Although he did not believe Lu Yu's words, it didn't matter if he gave it a go. After all, they were already in desperation. No matter what preparations they made, it would be useless. In the future, the city would be trampled by the giant lizard sooner or later.

Everything they did was useless.

He brought Lu Yu into the palace.

They finally arrived at the palace gates after passing through the broad stone path and climbing hundreds of stairs.

In the Imperial Palace, all the officials kneeled, waiting for Chu Ying's words.

He wore a golden robe, and his face was filled with anxiety. He paced back and forth, not knowing what to say.

He sighed helplessly when he saw Zhao Qingchen return in a sorry state.

"Even you guys are no match for it, right?"

"Your Majesty," Zhao Qingchen said helplessly, "the beast tide is too massive. I was no match for them and was defeated."

"I'm afraid we're no match for the Disaster Lizard. We can only choose to avoid it!"

"Avoid it?" Chu Ying flung his sleeves and asked angrily. "Where can we flee to? Our home is here, and our people live here!"

"If I flee this place and go to the next city, where can we escape if that Disaster Lizard keeps chasing us?"

"We have to think of a way to fight it head-on. As long as we retaliate hard enough, perhaps it will know that we are tough bones to chew on and change its target."

"But what should we do?"

Just as Chu Ying was deep in thought, Zhao Qingchen looked at Lu Yu and said, "This foreign adventurer just told me that he has the ability and strength to fight against the Disaster Lizard. We just need to tell him the specific coordinates."

Chu Ying turned his gaze to Lu Yu.

He frowned when he saw that Lu Yu was just an ordinary person dressed in simple clothes.

"Him?"

"Although our Tianwu Kingdom is in a remote area, many travelers have come to visit us."

"I know the people outside. Although they are strong, they are not willing to take risks, let alone take risks for us."

"How can I believe you?"

He asked Lu Yu.

"You don't have to do anything else. Just tell me the nest of the Disaster Lizard."

"Hmph!" Chu Ying snorted coldly. "If you go anywhere and cause trouble, infuriating the giant lizard and causing it to attack in advance, won't our kingdom be destroyed by you?"

"How can I tell you the location without worrying? If you have the ability, go find it yourself!"

Lu Yu frowned slightly. "If I were to look for it myself, it's not that I can't find it. It's just that I don't want to waste time."

"If you don't believe in my strength, why don't you follow me outside? I'll summon my battle pet. When you see it, you'll know whether I am capable or not."

"What?" Chu Ying looked at Lu Yu and asked curiously, "Are you going to let your battle pet fight while you just stand and watch?"

"Whether it's my battle pet or me, the Disaster Lizard will die."

"You don't have to believe me. I can prove it to you now."

Chu Ying pondered momentarily and replied, "Fine, let's see what you're capable of!"

Many ministers whispered to each other when they heard this. They did not believe Lu Yu's words and felt it was complete nonsense.

However, since the king had spoken, they would go out together and see what Lu Yu's battle pet was.

Everyone walked out of the palace grandiosely and arrived at an empty area.

A group of ministers followed behind Chu Ying and looked at Lu Yu curiously.

Then, Lu Yu raised his right hand and took out the Fire Spirit Pearl.

The Fire Spirit Dragon's appearance was more ferocious and mighty than that of the Water Spirit Dragon, and it was more able to scare these people.
