Chapter 801 Taking Back The Mine

The appearance of the two dragons made Li Deng's eyes widen in disbelief.

He trembled and took two steps back. The fear inside him was making him nervous.

"How... how did you get these two dragons?"

Seeing this, the other soldiers also panicked; their arrogant attitude disappeared entirely.

Li Deng gulped nervously. "Lu Yu, you are from the military. If you attack us, you should know the consequences!"

Lu Yu looked at him with disdain. "I'm not from the military. I didn't accept the captain's military position, so I'm unaffiliated."

"Even so, you can't attack us. If you dare make a move on us, you're challenging the Freedom Federation's military headquarters. You're just courting death. Do you understand?"

Lu Yu laughed out loud. "Do you think I'm afraid of your excuse? Ridiculous."

"The military has long been divided into two factions, with yours being my enemy. Even if I let you live, I won't escape their schemes!"

Lu Yu spat unhappily, remembering when that piece of shit General Yan killed Han Xuefei's family before he did anything!

He definitely wouldn't give any more leeway.

Li Deng swallowed his dry throat and knew that if he could not appease Lu Yu, he might die soon!

"If... if you dare to kill me, General Yan will not let you off. You will die after me!"

"Even if I let you go, he still wants to kill me. Of course, I'm also wanted by the Truth Department. They all want to kill me, so why don't I strike first?"

Li Deng quickly added, "You'd better think it through carefully. The Truth Department will come after you immediately if you kill me. If you leave now, we will pretend nothing happened!"

"Don't you know how powerful the Truth Department is?"

Lu Yu could not help but laugh when he heard that. "Did you expose yourself by threatening me using the Truth Department? Does that mean the Truth Department will avenge you if you die in my hands?"

Li Deng rolled his eyes. He knew he couldn't hide anymore, so he gave up on that.

"I'll make it clear to you today. This mine now belongs to the Truth Department. No one can take it away from us!"

"Who do you think you are? If the Truth Department arrives, you and your friend will perish! You can't even fathom how powerful the Truth Department is when they also have the assistance of a massive dragon. Don't believe you're really that powerful!"

Lu Yu was too lazy to continue wasting his breath on him. This guy was no longer worth his time.

"Xuefei, you do it."

Han Xuefei stepped forward, and hundreds of icicles appeared behind her the next instant.

The icicles shot toward Li Deng and the others.

When Li Deng and his men saw this, they cowered and hurriedly turned around to escape.

"Shit! Run!"

"You guys are dead!"

"The Truth Department will not let you off!"

"Only by joining the Truth Department will you have a chance to live!"

The icicles pierced into their bodies as they shouted. A cold aura enveloped them, freezing them into ice sculptures.

Ice sculptures were erected one after another, and soon most of everyone was frozen solid.

Li Deng hid behind the crowd, only half frozen.

"Lu Yu, I know my mistake. Please forgive me! I don't want to die! I can tell you anything you want to know!"

Lu Yu walked toward him, pushed aside a few ice sculptures, and stood before him.

Li Deng was huddled on the ground with his hands on his head, terrified of being pierced by an icicle.

"You, stand up!"

Li Deng quickly stood up and looked at Lu Yu with trepidation.

"Please..."

"Where are the people from the previous batch?"

"A portion of those who resisted died, while the rest were locked up in the dungeon."

"Is there anyone from the Truth Department here?"

Li Deng quickly shook his head. "They aren't here, but they will come here regularly and take the crystals we dug. After that, they won't care about anything else."

"It looks like you guys have become miners. Does it feel good to work for free?"

Li Deng lowered his head in shame. "It's not great. However, everyone thinks that as long as we hold on until the Ember Empire recovers, we can usher in the days when we rule the world."

"Their bullshit empire will never rule this world."

"Impossible; their power is unstoppable!"

Lu Yu glared at him, silencing him.

"Take me to the dungeon!"

Li Deng didn't dare to say no. He walked in front and led Lu Yu to the mountain next to him.

They walked and came to the slope of the mountain, reaching a tunnel entrance.

The iron gates opened, leading to an underground tunnel.

"Below is the dungeon..."

"Alright, now tell me, when will the Truth Department return?"

"There are still two days before the next appointment..."

"Very good; you can go to hell now."

Li Deng immediately widened his eyes. "You can't do this. I've already cooperated with your demands!"

"You've gone rogue, and there's no need for you to live anymore. If you stay alive, it'll only be a waste of resources."

The next moment, Lu Yu raised his dragon claw and struck Li Deng's chest.

Swoosh!

His sharp claws slashed across, leaving five bloody wounds on Li Deng's chest.

Li Deng felt the pain and quickly turned around to escape.

He wasn't that weak, so it was difficult for Lu Yu to kill him in one strike.

Han Xuefei raised her hands and used her telekinesis to stop Li Deng.

Li Deng, who had just run a few steps, was quickly under her control. He was forcefully turned around and returned to where he was.

Lu Yu swung his claw again, aiming for his neck.

Swoosh!

Immediately, Li Deng was beheaded.

With the two of them working together, killing him was child's play.

Lu Yu kicked open the iron gates and walked into the tunnel.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the bottom of the tunnel, which was a dungeon. On both sides were prison-like rooms with iron fences.

The people who sat inside looked like dried weeds. They were all members of the army's other faction. With the cooperation of the Truth Department and the newcomers, they were all captured and imprisoned here.

Everyone in the prison lowered their heads when they saw someone walk in and kept silent.

They were already used to such a life. As long as they could have a bite to eat, they would continue to live like this.

"Hey, get up. You can go out now."

After Lu Yu finished speaking, everyone in the prison looked up.

They had been imprisoned here for a few months and had lost hope of leaving.

However, this gentle voice gave them hope again.

"Who... Who are you?"

"You're not one of them; your voice is familiar."

"Are you Lu Yu? I remember now! You are Lu Yu!!"

Everyone quickly recognized that it was Lu Yu who had come to their prison.
