Bang!
At the instant Master Yuan's finger pierced his own forehead, a surge of power erupted fiercely, rushing directly into Master Yuan's brain.
This force was extrely fierce, and at the mont it hit Master Yuan's forehead, his body shuddered as if struck by lightning, his whole body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, ceasing to breathe instantly.
Seeing the scene before him, Lu Yu did not intervene because he knew that Master Yuan truly sought death at this mont. Trying to stop him would not only increase Master Yuan's pain but also be a great insult to him!
Therefore, out of respect, Lu Yu allowed Master Yuan to resolve it himself, preserving the last dignity of a martial artist.
Looking at Master Yuan's lifeless body on the ground, Lu Yu took a deep breath and then spoke lightly, "Master Yuan, farewell on your journey!"
"Should there truly be a next life, may you reach the peak of martial arts, unmatched by anyone!"
Having quietly uttered these words, Lu Yu turned around slowly and walked downstairs from the Six Mansions Tower. As he left, he pulled out his phone and dialed Marcus' number. Upon connecting, he spoke in a grave tone, "Marcus, send two people to the Six Mansions Tower. There's a friend's body here; give him a proper burial for !"
Although he had just been locked in a life-and-death struggle with Master Yuan, Lu Yu deeply admired Master Yuan's dedication and seriousness towards martial arts, as well as his respect for opponents.
For soone to pursue a goal diligently throughout life, even when afflicted with a terminal illness, without changing their resolve, such behavior truly moved Lu Yu.
Not only that, Master Yuan's powerful move, Shadowless Kill, if not for Lu Yu's sudden breakthrough reaching fifty percent, would have undoubtedly claid his life!
Therefore, whether out of respect or other reasons, Lu Yu decided to ensure Master Yuan was properly buried.
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Marcus responded, his speech brimming with deference.
"Hmm."
Upon hearing Marcus's reply, Lu Yu acknowledged with a soft sound and then continued walking down the Six Mansions Tower.
He planned to rest first and visit Luo Lie tomorrow to inquire about Howard and the Shadow Luo Organization.
...
At the sa ti as Master Yuan's death, in Europe, within a pitch-black ancient castle.
In the dark chapel, Julius III's expression was extrely unpleasant; his originally elegant face now full of fury, looked extrely fierce.
Before him sat only six remaining Black Knights, led by Lancelot, appearing exceedingly bleak.
Observing Julius III's deanor and the gloomy atmosphere surrounding him, all the present Black Knights realized.
Julius III had recently dispatched forces to Paradise Island, and now, seeing his deanor, it was clear to everyone present that the expedition had t significant hindrance!
Although aware, none voiced it, understanding Julius III was in a state of rage and speaking abruptly would surely provoke his wrath!
Whoosh!
Releasing a breath slowly, Julius III appeared particularly gloomy. He looked at the Black Knights before him and spoke in a heavy tone, "Today, I have sothing to announce..."
At this point, Julius III's voice sank slightly before continuing, "This ti, the four Black Knights dispatched to Paradise Island have all perished, and our ship was sunk with no exceptions—all aboard were killed!"
As he spoke, Julius III's voice was cold and somber, tinged with fury!
"What!?"
Upon hearing Julius III, the Black Knights were shocked, exchanging glances of disbelief.
Though they sensed sothing amiss from the atmosphere, none expected the situation to be so severe!
Four Black Knights perished, a ship sunk—such losses were severe for any organization!
Upon learning these details, their faces were filled with astonishnt and shock, never anticipating such a devastating loss!
"This Paradise Island, how could it be so formidable!?"
Recovering from shock, Lancelot spoke slowly, unable to believe the Dark Sanctuary's defeat was so tragic!
"It seems now, they indeed possess considerable ans, and their strength must not be underestimated!"
Julius III spoke, his words cold and murderous, enraged by the losses!
His voice was cold and somber, exuding a chilly murderous aura.
Four Black Knights of the Dark Sanctuary lost their lives, the ship sunk into the sea, even under his direct expedition!
Externally, it appeared the Dark Sanctuary was crushed, a great humiliation for Julius III!
"Leader."
Upon hearing Julius III, Lancelot stood, addressing him, "Given their capabilities, I suggest we proceed cautiously..."
"Regardless of caution, their actions this ti were sheer folly!"
Before Lancelot finished, Julius III interrupted, "The Dark Sanctuary's dignity is sacrosanct; sinking my ship and killing my Black Knights, such actions cannot go unpunished!"
Now thoroughly enraged, Julius III shouted, his words full of fury!
Four Black Knights dead, an ard vessel and its occupants lost, a significant loss!
Thus, Julius III felt imnse rage and humiliation, resolved to repay this blood debt!
