Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Haizhou Wuge Headquarters!

Hearing this, Zhou Yu stopped in his tracks, remaining in place.

He turned around, looking at Yao Pingsheng with a slight smile on his lips.

"Vice Minister Yao, what is it? You can stand up now?"

The corner of Yao Pingsheng’s eye twitched as he kept a stern face.

"Zhou Yu, cut the chatter."

"If you’re thinking of escaping, you’ll bear the consequences."

Zhou Yu replied with a faint smile,

"Don’t worry, I won’t run away."

"If I leave and by chance Phantom Wind Gui Chi comes back and kills you, I’d probably have to bear another scandal, don’t you think?"

Yao Pingsheng’s eyelid jerked violently as he coldly stared at Zhou Yu.

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhou Yu said lightly,

"You figure it out yourself."

With that said, Zhou Yu walked towards the only remaining intact car, jumped in, and lay down on the seat to rest.

Yao Pingsheng’s expression changed unpredictably, and he didn’t understand what Zhou Yu meant by his words just now.

Could it be that he knew something?

Yao Pingsheng couldn’t figure it out, but he didn’t linger; he immediately signaled his men to clean up the scene and then rushed back to the Martial Pavilion headquarters.

...

Meanwhile, Phantom Wind Gui Chi appeared ten kilometers away from where they had just been.

At this moment, his face was even paler, and he was somewhat unsteady as he walked.

To escape from Zhou Yu’s clutches, he had used his unique escape technique—Snake Bone Technique.

This technique was unpredictable and hard to guard against, but it caused great harm to his internal organs.

During the technique’s execution, the internal organs were compressed to the extreme. Although it was for a short duration, the strain it put on his body was unimaginable.

"Damn it, Mi Zongwu."

Gui Chi clenched a satellite phone in his hand, swearing vehemently.

From the other side of the phone, Mi Zongwu’s voice could be heard.

"Gui Chi, what do you mean by that?"

"What do I mean? You have the nerve to ask me?"

Gui Chi cursed continuously while recounting the recent assassination attempt on Zhou Yu.

After listening, Mi Zongwu fell silent.

He hadn’t expected that in less than half a month, Zhou Yu’s powers had advanced so dramatically.

Even Mi Zongwu found it hard to believe at that moment.

What did it mean to cultivate the Golden Cauldron Cultivation Technique to the Body Refining Saint Realm?

He couldn’t even imagine it.

The Golden Cauldron Cultivation Technique had its own entry in their black domain’s records.

Mi Zongwu had specifically studied records concerning the Golden Cauldron Cultivation Technique in detail to research Zhou Yu.

He was all too aware of how formidable the technique became after breaking through to the Saint Realm.

The fact that Gui Chi couldn’t breach Zhou Yu’s physical defenses was the best proof of this.

The Golden Cauldron Cultivation Technique, truly reputed to be the foremost Body Refining Technique.

However, Mi Zongwu was still unwilling to give up.

"Gui Chi, your strength in the black domain is evident to all, and you still hold a record of 100 percent mission completion. Are you really going to give up your reputation just because of a mere Zhou Yu?"

Mi Zongwu tried to provoke Gui Chi.

However...

"To hell with your reputation! This matter has nothing to do with the black domain; you’re spouting nonsense to me."

After cursing, Gui Chi abruptly closed the phone line.

Click!

He smashed the satellite phone underfoot, then checked his surroundings and quickly left the area.

After the call was disconnected, Mi Zongwu’s expression turned extremely grim.

He had sought out Gui Chi and Phantom Wind Gui Chi, two top experts, to deal with Zhou Yu. Now with Gui Chi missing and Phantom Wind Gui Chi failing, this was certainly not going to be concealed.

Finding another person from the black domain to deal with Zhou Yu might now be hopeless.

Now, he could only place his hopes on Xiang Yinglong.

Based on Mi Zongwu’s usual style of doing things, he actually preferred not to be this passive.

Because Xiang Yinglong was also a cunning individual, using threats alone likely wouldn’t make him obedient.

However, currently abroad, he had limited resources to leverage, so for now, he could only press Xiang Yinglong.

Then, Mi Zongwu picked up a file marked ’Zhou Yu Background Check’ from his desk and started to read through it meticulously again.

Meanwhile, his mind was busy plotting other ways to deal with Zhou Yu.

...

The car Zhou Yu was riding finally smoothly entered the Haizhou Martial Pavilion headquarters.

After exiting the car, Zhou Yu stopped, squinting his eyes toward a figure not far away.

There stood a man in his fifties.

With a proper posture and somewhat slender build, his eyes were extremely deep, and a powerful aura hidden within him inspired a feeling of awe.

Although Zhou Yu had never met this man, the aura alone was enough for Zhou Yu to guess who he was.

"Are you Xiang Yinglong?"

Xiang Yinglong stepped forward and looked Zhou Yu over carefully.

"I have heard your name many times, but you are a lot younger than I imagined."

Zhou Yu replied with a faint smile.

"So what? Are you going to pay your respects to me?"

Xiang Yinglong’s expression remained calm, showing no sign of what he was thinking.

The two stared at each other.

A few seconds later, Xiang Yinglong suddenly made a move without warning.

He flicked his finger, and a terrifying force burst forth directly aiming for Zhou Yu’s heart.

At such a close distance, combined with Xiang Yinglong’s sudden attack, Zhou Yu had no space to dodge.

Bang!

The strike, like lightning, hit directly at Zhou Yu’s heart.
