Chapter 181 The Goddess Has a Crush on Me, The Empress Is My Wife, Competing Backgrounds With Me?_1
Luo Yu's fearless tone enraged the elder.
With his level of cultivation, wherever he went he was treated with high regard; never had he been so belittled by someone so much younger.
"Boom!"
The eight Soul Rings vibrated, and the elder's Dragon Head Staff slammed into the ground with force.
His eyes glared intensely as he shouted harshly.
"Who gave you the audacity to speak to me like this?"
"No matter how eloquent you are today, this Man-Faced Demon Spider is mine."
"If you do not hand it over quickly, do not blame me for being impolite."
Faced with the elder's fierce threats, Luo Yu remained unmoved, a hint of amusement curling at the corner of his lips.
"What, you want to snatch this Man-Faced Demon Spider from my hands?"
The elder narrowed his eyes, a dangerous cold light seeping through the slits.
"If you are unwilling to hand it over, then I shall have to take it myself. If you happen to be injured accidentally, do not blame me for being merciless."
"Tsk, tsk."
Luo Yu shook his head repeatedly, chuckling softly.
"You're quite overbearing and aggressive; does your family know about this?"
Seeing the young man before him so brazen, the elder suddenly became more cautious.
He scanned the surroundings warily, finding no irregularities, and certainly no strong figures lying in ambush.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He huffed and asked, "Boy, tell me, which sect do you come from?"
"You're a bit careless as an old man, aren't you? Checking the opponent's strength and background before you rob them?" Luo Yu shook his head. "If you really must know which sect I come from, I'm afraid the shock might be too much for your heart to handle."
"Heh."
The elder scoffed again and again, quite proud of himself.
"I am Dragon Lord Meng Shu. Although I may not be considered a top figure, I do have a notable reputation on the continent, and I am certainly not someone a junior like you can scare away with a few words."
"That's laughable."
He stared intently at Luo Yu's extraordinary and transcendent countenance, taking several serious looks.
After a brief contemplation,
he suddenly changed his tone.
"If you are the child of a Sect Master from the upper three families, or the Holy Son of Wuhun Hall, I will apologize on the spot, turn on my heels and leave, without bringing up the matter of the Man-Faced Demon Spider again."
Luo Yu's eyes showed surprise.
He hadn't misread the situation; this old guy might really be, in fact, a gutless wonder.
One who asks about the background before fighting, almost as if he had the words 'bullies the weak and fears the strong' written on his face.
"I didn't expect you, an old man, to be quite adept at assessing the situation," Luo Yu said.
Naturally, Dragon Lord could hear the sarcasm in Luo Yu's voice, which made it hard for him to save face.
Still, he didn't rush into action.
Although he couldn't make out Luo Yu's cultivation level, his speech and behavior didn't seem like those of an ordinary person; to stand so confidently against a single Eight-Ringed Soul Douluo.
It made him somewhat doubtful of Luo Yu's identity.
In his mind, offending the heir of a great sect or the Holy Son of Wuhun Hall over a Man-Faced Demon Spider wasn't worth it.
"Boy, quickly confess your details. I have limited patience and no time to dally here with you," urged Dragon Lord, his greedy gaze fixed on the Man-Faced Demon Spider behind Luo Yu.
Luo Yu's lips curled up in amusement,
"Don't you like to bully the weak and fear the strong?"
"Then—"
"Let's lay the cards on the table; you can't afford to provoke my background."
"You might as well bow and apologize now."
Seeing Luo Yu acting as though he was toying with him, Dragon Lord's expression immediately darkened.
"Do you think I would believe that?"
"Heirs of great sects and Holy Sons of Wuhun Hall, such distinguished individuals, are always accompanied by masters wherever they go."
"You, on the other hand, look so poor that you don't even have a servant by your side, let alone a substantial background. It seems I have been overly cautious and overestimated you."
Faced with Dragon Lord's aggressive pressure, Luo Yu was not only unafraid but also appeared bored and somewhat sleepy.
He couldn't help but yawn, glancing at Dragon Lord, "Enough, save your energy. Those noble identities you're so concerned with are nothing to me."
Dragon Lord glared, "Big talk for someone with no grounds. What gives you the confidence to make such bold claims?"
"What gives me confidence?"
Luo Yu let out a scoff.
Then the smile slowly faded and he said calmly,
"The Holy Daughter of Martial Soul Hall has a secret crush on me. Empress Bibi Dong is my wife."
"The Little Princess of Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is my woman."
"I made the young clan leader of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan roll on the floor in defeat. The strongest genius of the Hao Tian Clan got hammered by me, and the Holy Son of Wuhun Hall begged for mercy without even fighting."
"You ask what gives me the confidence?"
Hearing Luo Yu's calm statement, Dragon Lord Meng Shu stood there stunned.
Seconds later, he burst out laughing.
Almost to the point of tears.
"This tone, this demeanor, you make it sound as if it's all true."
"If you had made up a story that was even a bit believable, I might have believed you."
"The Female Pope is your wife?"
"The Little Princess of Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is your woman?"
"You hammered the talents of Hao Tian Clan and the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon?"
"That's ****ing absurd; what kind of outrageous dream are you having? Can you make it any more false?"
Dragon Lord Meng Shu glared at Luo Yu, feeling insulted in his intelligence.
"What, you don't believe it?" Luo Yu said.
Dragon Lord Meng Shu glared and scolded, "Don't joke around with your Dragon Lord. Why don't you say that the entire Aquipeia Forest is yours as well?"
Luo Yu thought carefully and said seriously, "It's not exactly mine, but it's almost the same."
The elder felt extreme anger due to being offended and shouted furiously, "If any of that nonsense you just said is true, I'll acknowledge you as my father."
Luo Yu shook his head, "Sorry, you might want to, but I'm not interested."
"Ah!!"
Dragon Lord Meng Shu was so angered he felt like his chest would burst, his eyes turned red with heavy breaths.
"Boy, since you aren't a disciple from the upper three families or Martial Soul Hall."
"Then I, Dragon Lord Meng Shu, will take you like a soul beast, and I bet no one backing you would dare turn against me."
Luo Yu's eyes showed pity.
"Friendly advice."
"I'd advise you best not to make a move, or you'll regret it too late."
"I'll regret your ****!!" Dragon Lord Meng Shu roared furiously, his aura exploding, charging violently with the Dragon Cane in hand.
He was very clear; there was nothing to regret.
It was just dealing with a junior, that's all.
Even if this junior had some backing, as long as he didn't kill, their backers wouldn't dare to trouble him.
Dragon Lord Meng Shu felt he must brutally beat this kid today to ease his heart.
Why.
Why should a mere junior dare to disrespect his authority like this.
"Tsk tsk."
Seeing Dragon Lord Meng Shu make his move, Luo Yu's calm expression vanished, replaced by a hint of coldness.
His eyes focused, flashing with a chill.
"Just broke through, perfect timing to test my skills on you."
"Roar!!"
An earth-shaking dragon's roar erupted.
Nine-colored Divine Light burst out, with the Dragon God Phantom soaring upward, directly piercing the sky,
Then swiftly dropping, entering Luo Yu's body.
Dragon God Martial Soul Embodiment, he instantly entered the Draconic Transformation State, and his overwhelming qi and blood erupted.
Facing Dragon Lord Meng Shu who swung the Dragon Staff, he fearlessly threw a punch.
All of this was beyond Dragon Lord Meng Shu's expectations, and he certainly didn't expect that the moment the dragon's roar sounded, his own bloodline would tremble in response.
Soul Power became chaotic.
He didn't have much time to think; just then, the radiant fist collided with the Dragon Staff.
"Clang!!"
The sound of metal clashing echoed suddenly.
The previously mighty Dragon Lord Meng Shu, with a face full of astonishment, was instantly sent flying by Luo Yu's powerful punch.
