Chapter 392 A Terrifying Opponent
Below the stargazing tower, Lu Yu stood rooted to the ground. His breathing became shallow as he looked at the figure in front of him; the muscles in his body tensed up, and he was ready for battle.
The person turned around and looked at Lu Yu.
Lu Yu looked carefully but couldn't make out the guy's face. He wore a black windbreaker with a hood, and Lu Yu couldn't see anything under the darkness.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here; I thought you were already dead." The person sneered.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. I am alive and well, and my strength has increased from this blessing in disguise!"
Lu Yu knew that once he met face-to-face with this guy, it wouldn't be easy for him to escape.
The man in black in front of him was most likely the Truth Department's Head.
He definitely couldn't defeat this guy, so it seemed he had to find an opportunity to escape.
"The heavens are really helping me; I never thought I'd meet you here. It seems I can kill you before continuing to do what I must do next!"
As he said that, he approached Lu Yu.
He had only taken two steps forward when he suddenly disappeared from where he was, reappearing before Lu Yu.
So fast!
Lu Yu was shocked by the guy's speed. He was so fast that Lu Yu couldn't even see his movements clearly with his naked eye.
The man in black rushed over, immediately raised his right fist, and punched Lu Yu's chest!
Lu Yu hurriedly blocked his chest with his arms, defending himself.
However, Lu Yu wasn't strong enough to take the power of this punch. Lu Yu was sent flying with a muffled bang, and his body went numb from the powerful impact.
He squatted down and shook his hands as he frowned.
"What a strong punch!" Lu Yu exclaimed. After confirming that he could not defeat this guy, he was looking for a chance to escape.
Lu Yu didn't know why the man was there or what he wanted to do. His main goal was to escape, find Jiang Lengyue, and explain the situation to her.
The difference in strength was so great that Lu Yu wasn't sure if he could escape from this guy's hands; he could only try his best.
It was late at night, and the surroundings were pitch black. Lu Yu's claws transformed into his Dark Dragon Claws as he planned to use them in actual combat.
The Head of the Truth Department rushed toward Lu Yu again in a flash and threw another punch!
The power of this punch was much more ferocious than the previous one, so Lu Yu didn't dare to block it as he dodged.
The difference in their speeds was far too great, and Lu Yu didn't manage to dodge in time. The enemy's fist grazed Lu Yu's shoulder, and the intense pain made him clench his teeth.
His shoulder felt like it had been dislocated; Lu Yu massaged his shoulder as he quickly backed off.
"Hmph, now that I know you aren't my match, I would've loved to play with you a little longer. Unfortunately, I still have important things to do, so let's end this quickly."
As he said that, a powerful and fierce killing intent burst out from his body.
Lu Yu gulped as he realized the person in front of him was planning to kill him. The next time the enemy attacked, it would be aiming at Lu Yu's weak point; he had to be extra careful.
Although Lu Yu was curious about what he wanted to do, it wasn't the time to care about that. He'd better escape from his enemy first before thinking about anything else.
He placed his hopes on the Dark Dragon Claw's Black Mist skill.
At that moment, the enemy turned into a shadow again and dashed toward Lu Yu.
However, before he could swing his fist, Lu Yu's claws released a large amount of mist!
A thick black mist instantly diffused and enveloped Lu Yu's body.
The mist started to spread rapidly. In less than two seconds, the entire place was covered in it!
As the Black Mist spread, the man in black quickly covered his face with his hands, afraid that it was some kind of poisonous mist that would be fatal to him if he breathed it in.
However, after the mist spread, the man realized he wasn't showing any signs of being poisoned. After putting down his hands, he noticed that Lu Yu had disappeared.
He turned his head left and right to look at his surroundings but did not see any trace of Lu Yu.
"Releasing mist to hide—what a joke! Do you think you can escape like this?"
He growled in a low voice and swung his arms in all directions. However, the mist was too thick, and his visibility was less than a meter. He couldn't see what was going on around him at all!
He took out a short black and gold scythe from his storage ring. After holding it in his hand, he swung it with all his might.
Every time he swung his scythe, it would release a shock wave, like a sword aura.
The shock wave dispersed the Black Mist before him, allowing him to see the situation in front of him. However, the Black Mist would quickly gather and drown his vision again.
He continued to swing his scythe and shoot shock waves in all directions.
Regardless of what the enemy was doing, Lu Yu had already entered an invisible state.
The Black Mist's invisibility was crucial to Lu Yu.
Although it could affect his enemy's vision, if Lu Yu got too close, he would still be seen. Therefore, Lu Yu just had to stay a meter away from the enemy, and his enemy wouldn't be able to detect him.
Lu Yu's vision was unaffected by the Black Mist. In other words, this mist was only effective on others and was clear as day to Lu Yu.
Moreover, as Lu Yu walked in Black Mist, he wouldn't disturb the flow. The Black Mist appeared still, and its flow and current would normally be affected if something inside it moved.
Thus, Lu Yu was hidden entirely in the Black Mist, and there was almost no way to locate him.
Of course, if the enemy had a wide-range skill, Lu Yu would still be damaged by it.
Lu Yu had already arrived behind his enemy. He raised his right claw, and a dark purple ball condensed in his palm.
The ball shot out and hit the person's back.
The dark purple ball turned into a liquid and diffused into his body.
At this moment, the Head of the Truth Department stiffened. He quickly reached out and scratched his back but didn't find anything.
A piercing pain soon assaulted him, and his health points began to decrease rapidly. As this poison attack ignored defense, he took damage regardless of his high attributes.
He gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his body. He cursed fiercely, "Damn bastard, how dare you play dirty with me! I'm going to kill you and bury the upper house with you! "
