Chapter 461 Irreconcilable Conflict

They weren’t far from the stronghold. As long as they walked out of the forest, they would be within sight of the watchtower and easily enter the fort.

However, Lu Yu suddenly noticed something unusual.

The smell of blood in the air irritated his nose, so he stopped and sniffed the air.

Xu Yuan and the others tense up again. After a day of fighting, they were exhausted, but they still had to be fully prepared in the face of an unknown danger.

Lu Yu followed the smell of blood and walked to the right.

Suddenly, he saw traces of blood on the ground. He followed the trail of blood and soon found a figure lying quietly in the grass.

Lu Yu hurriedly activated his Eye of the Dragon God to take a look, but he realized that he couldn’t see anything; there was no information at all.

The person lying in front of him had already lost his life.

“It’s a dead man.”

Lu Yu quickly walked over, and Su Qing followed. She opened her right hand, and a ball of light appeared in her palm, illuminating their surroundings.

Taking advantage of the brightness, Lu Yu saw the true appearance of the corpse before him.

“He looks familiar.”

“He has the upper house’s emblem on him. He’s a member of the upper house’s student council!” Han Xuefei saw something and pointed over.

Lu Yu looked over and was surprised to see the student council badge.

“He’s one of us, but why did he die here?”

Lu Yu’s mind was filled with questions. This was abnormal and needed to be investigated.

Lu Yu stood up, as he couldn’t get much information from the corpse. The deceased’s chest was pierced through, and there were wounds all over his body. He was still clutching his walkie-talkie even as he died.

Lu Yu had no idea who had killed the student.

“Although I can’t tell who killed him, I’m sure it wasn’t a ferocious beast that made these wounds. It must be a human.”

Xu Yuan kneeled on one knee and carefully examined the corpse. As a doctor, he was able to get some basic information from the way someone died.

“A penetrating wound that looks to be from a spear. There are several slashed wounds on his body, and they are all from different weapons. I’m guessing that at least five people attacked him together.”

He couldn’t glimpse any more information, so he stood up and looked at Lu Yu.

“What do we do next?”

Lu Yu looked at Wang Meng. “Bring the body back and bury it. We have to find a way to find the murderer and take revenge!”

Wang Meng nodded and carried the dead man toward their stronghold.

After walking out of the forest, the six came to the stronghold’s entrance.

When the guards saw that Lu Yu had returned, they immediately greeted him respectfully. “Welcome back, captain!”

The two guards also saw the corpse Wang Meng was carrying. Even though they had many questions, they held them back.

Lu Yu walked into the fort and saw almost no one in the square. However, the small buildings nearby were all brightly lit.

Lu Yu took out his walkie-talkie and said, “Jiang Ning, come to the square. I have something to report.”

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Jiang Ning heard Lu Yu’s voice and quickly replied, “I’ll be right there. I have something to report to you too!”

“Roger that.”

Lu Yu put away the walkie-talkie and looked at the five people behind him. “If you all are tired, you can head back to rest.”

“If you aren’t resting, we wouldn’t do so either.” Xu Yuan spoke quickly. “We can still hold on.

Lu Yu didn’t say anything. He found a chair and sat down, waiting for Jiang Ning’s arrival.

The moonlight fell on the ground, reflecting a silver light.

After waiting for a short moment, Jiang Ning came to Lu Yu.

“Captain, I have a situation to report!”

She quickly walked over, her expression a little anxious.

As soon as she walked over, she saw the body on the ground and recognized the person’s identity at a glance.

“You brought him back?”

Jiang Ning asked in surprise.

“What do you want to report?” Lu Yu looked at her and asked, “I’ll listen to your report first. ”

“It’s about him. He had contacted us earlier and said he was being hunted, and he was finally killed. I heard everything from his walkie-talkie.”

“In other words, you know who did it?” Lu Yu asked.

Jiang Ning nodded. “Yes, it was the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce team. They did it.”

“When this person contacted me, he told me that he wanted to try making friends with them, but after some communication, the other party started to attack him. They surrounded him and hunted him. He tried his best to escape, but he failed…”

At that moment, Lu Yu suddenly realized that this person was probably lying outside the city because he had used a teleportation scroll. He assumed he could return to their stronghold, so he laid down and rested.

The sad thing was that his last hope before his death, the teleportation scroll, didn’t bring him back to the fort.

If he could teleport back to their fort, he might be able to survive.

“What else did he say?”

Jiang Ning’s expression hardened. “He told me that the people who killed him were from the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce. Their stronghold is at the foot of a snowy mountain in the north. Their huge team consists of about 1000 people, but they’re scattered across a large area. Many of their strongholds are searching for supplies in the surrounding area simultaneously.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly, expressing his affirmation, “He didn’t die in vain. I’ll avenge him.”

Jiang Ning immediately panicked. “Captain, what do you mean? Are you going to start a war with the people of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce?”

“Can’t I?” Lu Yu glanced at her.

“Although we might not necessarily lose, we will suffer huge losses on both sides no matter the outcome. At that time, it will be advantageous to the other forces!”

Lu Yu could understand Jiang Ning’s concerns, but after his phone call with Jiang Lintian, the conflict between them had become irreconcilable.

Lu Yu had more than sufficient reason to destroy this team!

Otherwise, the thousand-man team would find them sooner or later if they kept setting up camp with increasingly more resources. How could a hundred of them fight against a thousand when that time came? They would lose even more miserably!

“Jiang Ning, there’s no turning back now. There’s already an irreconcilable conflict between me and Jiang Lintian, the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce team captain. He wants my life, so I want him dead too!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to say.

She didn’t expect that this team leader, whom she had never met before this expedition, would lead the team into a ditch!

She wondered if there would be even 10 or 20 survivors after the battle against the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce!

If they were to suffer a crushing defeat, it was likely that they would be completely annihilated.

Moreover, Lu Yu said they had an irreconcilable conflict, which meant this was a battle to the death!

This meant that there was no possibility of recovering their relationship.

“Are… are we really going to fight them?” Jiang Ning panicked, and she had no idea what to do.

They needed the military team’s help if they wanted to go up against the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce’s team. How could they possibly win on their own?

“You guys don’t have to go. I’ll go,” Lu Yu shook his head.

“Are you going there on your own?” Jiang Ning asked nervously.

Lu Yu pointed at the five people beside him and said, “Count them in.”
