Ying Mei’er!
She was given this name by the Ying family because of her charming looks and a figure that seemed made in heaven. However, she only got this name when she was ten.
That was right. Before she was ten years old, not only did she not have a name, her status was even worse than a servant of the Ying family.
This was all because she was the offspring of her mother and a Grand Master with a so-called lowly status. She was rejected by the Ying family and was given the cold shoulder by the Ying family. Even the most lowly servant dared to climb all over the mother and daughter to crap all over them.
Her mother, on the other hand, died during a severe beating by a group of servants. Ying Mei’er herself was also on the verge of dying, barely breathing her last breath.
She was lucky not to die, and continued to live in a degrading way in the Ying family. One day, she was discovered by the Ying family to have an extraordinary talent, which then ushered in a turning point in her life that allowed her to live like a person.
Although the direct descendants of the Ying family looked down on Ying Mei’er’s birth, her talent made them envious and hateful with jealousy. In just over ten years, she became a Grand Master and was the outstanding talent of the young generation.
However, for more than ten years, Ying Mei’er had never forgotten about taking revenge for her mother’s death. She felt no sense of belonging in the Ying family and couldn’t wait to overthrow the family.
This was the interesting scene that Lu Yu saw within the mind of Ying Mei’er. This was why he put off the idea of killing this woman.
“You think I will still believe your words?” Learning from the experience of her senior, Ying Mei’er was very doubtful of Lu Yu’s words.
“Believe it or not, the opportunity is in front of you. If you choose to give up, then you just have to embrace death.” Lu Yu said icily.
It seemed like she had no other option at all!
Ying Meier gave a self-deprecating smile and said, “It seems like I can only choose to work for you. But before I work for you, I want to be paid.”
This woman still dared to negotiate the terms and conditions with him when she was on the brink of death. Lu Yu smiled menacingly, his eyes filling up with maliciousness and said, ‘You are not afraid that I will kill you straight away now?”
Ying Mei’er tilted her neck and looked like she was ready to be killed. She decided to give everything she had and said, “Then kill me. Come on.”
A tinge of admiration emerged in Lu Yu’s eyes. What a gutsy woman! If she were not a woman, Lu Yu believed that Ying Mei’er could be capable of even greater achievements.
“This is your reward. Take it.” Lu Yu gave her the payment on the spot with a toss of his interspatial ring.
He was not afraid of Ying Mei’er asking for payment. On the contrary, if Ying Mei’er did not want anything, it would only make Lu Yu uneasy. At least, a person who sought benefits was a perfectly normal person in his eyes, and was easier to control.
Ying Mei’er opened the interspatial ring and took a look inside. Immediately her eyes widened. Inside was one cubic meter pile of pure spiritual energy rocks, emitting a dazzling white light.
Lunan City was his fiefdom, and Lu Yu naturally had the authority to intercept a portion of the spiritual energy rocks from the underground spiritual energy mineral ore mine.
“Speak. What do you want me to do?” The reward given by the other party was so generous that Ying Meier gasped involuntarily. After calming down, she then asked for details.
The fact that Lu Yu was willing to offer such a reward meant that what she would be asked to do was exceptionally difficult. However, when Lu Yu told her what she was required to do, Ying Mei’er’s eyes widened, her face full of disbelief. “What? Say that again!”
“I said, I want you to help me deal with the Ying family and fight them to the final breath! Whatever news the Ying family has, no matter how big or small, you must let me know first.”
Lu Yu patted her shoulder and said, “You are a smart person. I believe you should know what to do.”
Ying Mei’er’s mind went blank. She was working with her enemy’s enemy?
Following that, she nodded her head and with a hint of hatred, saying, “Okay. I promise to help you with this matter, but you have to tell me your identity.”
“You will naturally know my identity when the time comes for you to know. Sometimes too much curiosity can kill a person.” Lu Yu said with narrowed eyes.
Her body trembled momentarily, but after that Ying Mei’er said, “I understand.”
“It’s good that you understand. Then what comes next may hurt a little. You better be mentally prepared,” Lu Yu said suddenly.
“What?” Ying Mei’er asked in surprise.
The next instant, Lu Yu swung his sword fiercely. A ray of scorching sword light descended on the Romance and Rendezvous Club. The moment it slashed down, with one hand Lu Yu carried Zheng Xiaochuan, who was being restrained, and shot out of that place using the Star Shifting Steps.
At the same time, the Illusionary Realm Kingdom wrapped up all the wealthy and noble patrons and shifted them to a safe place.
Boom!
The deafening sound resounded through the whole area within a radius of more than ten kilometers.
Under the dim lights of the sleazy streets, the congested traffic intersections, and the quiet and peaceful Capital City University… At this moment, everyone in the vicinity looked up with a stunned expression.
“Argh! Someone died! Someone died!” Some unknown character suddenly screamed out, and chaos broke out instantly.
Within a short time, all the various factions in the capital cast their eyes in the direction of the blast, full of shock. Amongst them were many people from other powerful families, and the shock in their hearts was beyond words.
It was because they knew that this sleazy nightspot was the territory of the Ying family. Someone dared to make a move on the Ying family! Did they swallow the balls of a tiger?
“The Ying family must be… having a headache now.” In the shadows in the distance, Sima Yu was completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene. After letting out a bitter laugh, he dialed the number to report the situation to Yao Xianming.
After learning this news, Yao Xianming also froze for a long time before speaking, “This guy really has the guts to do this.”
“So Commander Yao, what should we do next?” Sima Yu asked for instructions.
“Which inspector is in charge of this area where the Romance and Rendezvous Club is located? Give him a heads up and tell him to delay as long as possible.” Yao Xianming put his legs on the table and said indifferently. “What you mean is, you want to hush up this matter?” Sima Yu was taken aback.
“Not to hush it up, but to create some difficulties for the Ying family so that they can’t find the culprit so easily. In addition, keep your tracks clean. Don’t expose yourself.” The voice on the other end of the phone turned cold and detached gradually.
“Yes, Sir!” Sima Yu’s body shook momentarily. Thereafter, he looked at the huge pile of ruins in front of him and could not calm down for a long time. This was definitely going to cause a big uproar in the capital this time.
As one of the four great families, the Ying Family had been so powerful for decades that everyone had to submit to their whims and fancies. Now that someone had the guts to touch their sore spot, how could the Ying family not get incensed? How could they not get even?
The capital was going to be turned upside down!
The person who started it all found a house near Capital City University and quietly watched it all. The most dangerous place was also the safest. Here, he could observe the movements of the Ying family on the surface at any time.
Cough! Cough! “Was… this fellow trying to kill me?”
In the ruins, Ying Mei’er, who had been seriously injured, was unable to move. After a long time, racked by searing pain, she managed to pick up the phone with great difficulty and made a call to the Ying family. After that, she lay flat out, looking at the night sky overhead in a daze.
If everybody perished in this enormous intelligence base except Ying Mei’er who escaped unscathed, the Ying family would naturally be suspicious of her. Lu Yu had no choice but to do what he did. However, when she recalled the viciousness of that sword strike earlier, Ying Mei’er still shuddered with fear..
