Chapter 1316: Chapter 1316

Suddenly, the city gates opened, and a group of people rushed out, surrounding Du You and his companions completely.

"Darn it, it was them who killed our people. They’re really seeking death."

"Why are there only three of them? Are they insane or are there others hiding?"

At this moment, the guy who had been playing dead on the watchtower suddenly stood up and shouted loudly down below, "It’s them, be careful, they’re very strong." The two guards at the gate, they are capable of killing with one strike.

"Very strong? Those two weaklings, I think they’re at most tier four." Although tier four was already not bad, compared to their Dark Night Mercenary Group, it was far inferior. They had several tier five members on their side.

Don’t assume that a tier five master is a top existence in the academy. It’s very rare for one to appear in many years, but among these major powers, there are quite a few tier fives. After all, the students in the university had only become Professionals a few years ago.

"Who are you, and why are you causing trouble for our Dark Night Mercenary Group?" Finally, someone who looked authoritative came forward. As this person stepped forward, the crowd parted a way for him.

Du You sneered, "Who I am doesn’t matter, as for why I’m here, of course, it’s because I have a grievance with you. Bring out Qiu Yu, I am here for him," Du You said coldly.

"Big talk from a young kid, not lacking in temper. Have you been reading too many hero stories and now, think you are invincible? I’ll give you a chance, apologize now and join us, and we can let bygones be bygones." The newcomer’s eyes flickered, contemplating something unknown, while Du You fully perceived his subtle movements from behind.

"Join you weaklings? Beat me first, then let’s talk," Du You said indifferently, not making a move.

Suddenly, the man who had just spoken extended the hand he had kept behind his back, and a scroll was torn open. A blood-red light shot towards Du You but was blocked by a black barrier just before it reached him.

The barrier flickered and was gone, obviously an automatic defense either from abilities or equipment. Seeing his sneak attack fail, the man’s face soured. Just as he was about to fight, suddenly a voice called out from behind.

"I am here. I heard you were looking for me."

The previous speaker quickly withdrew and stood respectfully to the side, "Sub-group leader, this is the man causing the trouble."

Qiu Yu stepped forward and when he suddenly saw Du You, his anger quickly cooled down, "It’s you. Instead of staying safely inside Capital University, you dare come here looking for trouble." Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍

Qiu Yu cursed inwardly, actually, it was he who had initially ordered trouble against Du You to boost the reputation of the Dark Night Mercenary Group, and he had been secretly keeping an eye on Du You. But Du You had advanced too quickly, and their conflict had become irreconcilable. Recently, he had got word that he was no longer a match for Du You.

Whether out of jealousy or hatred, this led to ongoing turmoil in Du You’s hometown. Under his conniving, the chaos only continued to grow.

He hadn’t expected Du You to personally come to find him, especially when the chaos back home could not possibly affect Yao River City, and Du You’s family was no longer there. Yet here he was, confronting him.

It was just blowing off steam, how could it have turned into this. The person who initially provoked Du You had also disappeared without a trace, maybe dead, and now he had to bear it all.

"I brought the person who offended you to your home to apologize personally; what more do you want?"

Du You replied indifferently, "Don’t play innocent. Don’t you know exactly what happened initially and what happened afterward? I do not believe you were not involved. Gan Mu in Other World was taken care of by me, there are some things you don’t need to tell me I already know." Upon hearing this, Qiu Yu’s pupils constricted; that unfortunate subordinate was already dead.

"Damn it, how dare you kill a member of our Dark Night Mercenary Group, do you want to die?" someone shouted loudly.

"Since Gan Mu is already dead, what are you doing here?" Qiu Yu asked coldly.

"What am I here for? Of course, because I find you displeasing. The chaos in my hometown, isn’t that your doing?"

"How could that be possible, I have never been near your hometown," Qiu Yu denied flatly.

"It seems it really was you, otherwise, how would you be so familiar with my hometown?"

Qiu Yu cut the pretense, "Think carefully, this is the territory of the Dark Night Mercenary Group, making trouble here won’t end well for you."

"Is that so? If your confidence lies in those few group leaders, then I’m really sorry, I am not afraid of them now." Saying this, Du You’s aura unfolded, and everyone around instantly felt oppressed.

Some of weaker strength even felt dizzy. It’s good that their training was solid, otherwise, some would have fainted by now. Qiu Yu, full of fear, could never have imagined that the person in front of him had reached tier six. No wonder they were so bold, coming right to his doorstep; they weren’t afraid of his group leaders anymore.

How did this damn student advance so quickly? There had never been such a monster.

"Tier six, you’ve actually reached tier six. Now you are a big shot at tier six, why bother squabbling with us small fries. I admit I did do some things back there, but it didn’t harm you," Qiu Yu confessed.

Faced with a tier six powerhouse, all his leverage was useless. In front of such a force, lies were futile. The other party was already convinced of his guilt, denying it outright might just provoke him further.

Thinking Du You was at the pinnacle of tier five, he felt he had the right to fight a bit at his own doorstep. But with the opponent being tier six, it was a completely different matter. The mere fact of their tier difference suppressed his strength significantly.

But to Du You now, it felt somewhat pointless. The power discrepancy was too big; to stir up such a fuss for a small fry, what was the point?

With that thought, Du You simply stopped talking and prepared to fight.

Just then, a stick appeared in Qiu Yu’s hand, already emanating flickers of light.

But Qiu Yu was quick, Lin Yushi was quicker. Without even using a bow, she flicked a thunder and lightning arrow directly. The arrow hit the stick instantly, and it exploded instantly. The intense shockwave flung Qiu Yu backward, his head hitting the ground hard.
