Chapter 936 The Secret Inside The Basement

Bernie raised the skeleton staff in his hand and aimed it at Lu Yu.

A layer of black halo began to envelop the Skeleton Staff quickly.

Swoosh!

The next moment, a ray shot out from the skull.

"Death Ray! Destroy this bastard's body!"

A black ray shot toward Lu Yu.

As Bernie shouted, he was shocked to find that Lu Yu was standing still!

"You're too pretentious; do you think you can block the power of my Death Ray? You're courting death!"

"Anyone who gets hit by my Death Ray will be torn apart and die within seconds!"

"You're heading into an early grave!"

He looked at Lu Yu confidently and was sure that Lu Yu would be dead soon.

"I'm not in a hurry to kill you, or get killed, for that matter. What I want to know is whether the headquarters of your Mage Guild is in Night Witch City?"

Swoosh!

The ray hit Lu Yu's chest.

Bernie looked at Lu Yu excitedly, looking forward to seeing Lu Yu's body explode into pieces and blood splatter all over the ground.

However, this did not happen. Lu Yu was unharmed and continued to approach him.

Bernie was instantly dumbfounded. He stood rooted to the ground and began to retreat with trembling feet.

This was his strongest attack, of which he was most proud. But now, his most decisive move was useless before Lu Yu!

"This... This is impossible! There's just no way! How can my Death Ray have no effect at all?"

He looked at Lu Yu in disbelief.

Lu Yu continued approaching him and asked, "Answer my question. Is this place the headquarters of your Mage Guild?"

"Yes... Yes, it's here. What do you want to do?"

"What about your guild leader?"

"Guild leader? Why are you looking for him? He's not here."

"Is that so? So where is he?"

"In the imperial capital of the Ember Empire."

"It looks like I won't be able to meet him. What a pity."

Lu Yu warmed up his wrist and swung the sword in his hand around.

"Right, how many people have your guild killed?"

Bernie shook his head. "I don't know what you're talking about. We never kill anyone. We're just a normal guild."

"That's true. After all, those poor people are not considered humans in your eyes."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't slander us!"

Bernie was still stubborn and unwilling to admit his wrongdoing.

"You used the living to refine your potions. Is there a need to lie anymore?"

Hearing this, Bernie's mouth twitched, and his heart jolted. He knew that he couldn't hide the truth any further.

"You're Shirley's friend, so you are my friend as well. Let's all sit down and become stronger together."

"In this world, the strong get everything. The strong can dominate the weak, so is there anything wrong with that?"

Lu Yu raised his hand to interrupt him. "You're wrong, and we're not friends. Didn't you just spit on Shirley's visit? You think she's a good-for-nothing in the family and shouldn't get close to a big shot like you."

"Since that's the case, I'm not your friend. Also, your argument that the strong should dominate the weak is unfounded."

"In this world, the core of the strong is their innate talent. The weak just got unlucky with their talent, so why should they be dominated by some lucky bastard?"

"You just got lucky at birth. What's there to be proud of?"

Bernie looked at Lu Yu speechlessly.

"Are you crazy? You should agree with my words! I know that you're also a strong cultivator. Aren't commoners like ants in your eyes?"

A powerful pressure burst out of Lu Yu.

The Holy Dragon's Might was released, enveloping Lu Yu's body in faint light. Under the light, Lu Yu's figure appeared particularly solemn and domineering.

Bernie looked at Lu Yu and was so frightened that he stayed silent.

Lu Yu raised his hand and grabbed Bernie's neck.

"Take me to the place where you refine your potions!"

"No, no, no! Impossible! I can't expose the guild's secret!"

It was getting difficult for him to speak as Lu Yu strangled him.

The intimidating pressure was also stiffening his entire body, so he could not do anything to resist.

Lu Yu exerted a little more force in his grip, and Bernie's pale face turned green.

"If you don't bring me to go, you'll die here. You understand me?"

Death was the last thing Bernie wanted.

He put in countless hours of effort to become stronger. He had never struggled, from the first time he lured others into his lair to the first time he killed someone.

His heart had become numb to those cruel acts, but he knew he could not forgo everything he had accumulated.

The fact that he had to give up everything and die just like that was something he absolutely couldn't accept!

"Put me down. I'll take you there..."

Lu Yu let go of his hand. Bernie flopped on the ground and began to pant heavily.

"I... I'll bring you over now. But after you see it, don't attack me anymore!"

At this moment, Helen and the other two ran out toward Lu Yu.

Shirley was the first to reach them. When she saw what happened, she looked at the two of them in surprise.

"Did you two fight?"

Bernie looked up at Shirley and spat, "You've really brought a lucky star to me, eh?"

"What's going on?" Shirley asked, confused. "What happened?"

"Don't worry. He'll show you what happened very soon."

As Lu Yu spoke, he looked at Bernie. "Let's go!"

Bernie's eyes widened, and he quickly asked, "Do you have to let them see it too? They're both girls. It's not suitable, no?"

"Don't you want Shirley to see it?"

Bernie looked at Shirley with a guilty conscience. He definitely didn't want Shirley to see what he was doing. As a man, he had a great superiority complex before Shirley.

However, if she were to see that bloody scene, he would be nothing but a perverse bastard in Shirley's eyes.

Although he was already countless times more disgusting than a pervert...

"Go, and cut the nonsense. If you don't want to live, you can just tell me."

Bernie quickly nodded. "I'll lead the way now, don't worry..."

Helpless, he could only turn around and lead the way to the basement.

Lu Yu looked at Shirley and said, "Let's go down with him."

"You just said that if he doesn't obey, he won't be able to live?"

"That's right. He did some things that required him to pay with his life."

Shirley's eyes were filled with sadness. She only had Bernie as her only family member, and now Bernie had done something suicidal. It was really a pity...
