Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 447 - 273: Mission Reward_2

Facing a single Sand Warrior is already difficult; if surrounded by two or more Sand Warriors, Lu Yu cannot guarantee an escape.

So he tries to avoid being surrounded.

Lu Yu hides in the ruins, and through a gap, he spots Chu Tianhe, guarded by Hidden Dragon Commerce Association defenders, quietly moving towards her.

The mission requires Lu Yu to ensure Chu Tianhe and Chu Tiange safely leave Black Sand City. If he could get close to Chu Tiange, he would have directly carried him out of the city.

Unable to send Chu Tiange out, he will first send Chu Tianhe; sending one is better than none.

A mission must be completed step by step.

"Leave here first. It's too dangerous."

Lu Yu suddenly appears next to Chu Tianhe, and her guards only react when they hear his voice, aiming their weapons at him, watching cautiously.

"It's you." Chu Tianhe sees Lu Yu, raises her hand signaling the guards to lower their weapons, telling them not to be tense.

"This place is too chaotic, unsafe; you should leave Black Sand City first. Once you're safe, Chu Tiange can fight without worries," Lu Yu persuades.

Chu Tianhe glances toward Chu Tiange's battle direction, shakes her head and says, "Don't worry about my safety, you go yourself."

Seeing her reluctance to leave, Lu Yu is about to forcibly take her when a torrential rain of blood falls from the sky, and a figure shrouded in a yellow sand ribbon descends like a deity.

Seeing Sha Qian land with the elder's corpse, Lu Yu instinctively burrows into the ground, going as deep as possible to avoid Sha Qian's gaze.

Sha Qian's power is terrifying; he easily killed the elder of the same level, others wouldn't stand a chance against him together. Staying above ground would be perilous.

Without the elder holding Sha Qian back, whether Chu Tiange and Chu Tianhe can survive becomes a big issue.

Even with the Dragon Meridian's support, Chu Tiange's power is far below Sha Qian's, not to mention Sha Qian; even Sha Erloi can match him in battle.

"Lu Bo!"

Seeing the corpse carried by Sha Qian, Chu Tianhe cries out, disregarding hiding her female identity.

Others are still stunned by Sha Qian's killing of the elder, not noticing the change in Chu Tianhe's voice.

Chu Tiange feels the impending pressure from the sky, looks up and sees a figure eight zhang high, shining with divine light, descending.

Sha Qian uses the Sand God's power, swiftly killing Lu Bo who had no time to react.

At this moment, he resembles a deity.

Glancing at Chu Tiange and Sha Erloi's battlefield, he views Chu Tiange's imposing aura briefly, dismissing him entirely.

Casually dropping the elder's corpse, Sha Qian releases his powerful aura, enveloping all of Black Sand City.

Everyone falls, unable to withstand Sha Qian's pressure and remain airborne.

Stubbornly, Chu Tiange rises to Sha Qian's height, staring unwaveringly at him. Sha Erloi sighs in disappointment, landing on the ground and heading towards his companions.

He was just on the verge of a breakthrough, but Sha Qian descended too quickly, not giving him enough time.

Now, fighting Chu Tiange again, he can't regain the state he was in; his boiling Qi Blood and heightened emotions calm under Sha Qian's pressure.

Without that state, even battling Chu Tiange a hundred times wouldn't assure a breakthrough feeling.

As Chu Tiange stood defiantly before him, Sha Qian reached out to press down, his gigantic hand covering the sky above Chu Tiange, pushing him towards the ground.

The Dragon Meridian's power surged from below, supporting Chu Tiange and resisting Sha Qian's force.

In Sha Qian's eyes, there was a flash, a power sealing the earth, cutting off the Dragon Meridian's force.

Without support, Chu Tiange's height drops rapidly, on the verge of being smashed into a pulp.

"Stop!" Lu Yu shouted.

Sha Qian halted, gazing down, the ground cracked open, and a massive palace rose from underground. Lu Yu stood within the underground hall, on the Sand God's statue shoulder.

Grey power of death shimmered at Lu Yu's fingertips, watching Sha Qian nervously, the death force ready to deploy at any moment.

"Let them leave or I'll destroy this statue," Lu Yu addressed the ceiling of the Sand King Hall.

He knew Sha Qian was above, watching him. Though unseen, Sha Qian could see him.

Sha Qian glanced at Lu Yu, withdrew his hand; Chu Tiange hovered half a meter high, but Sha Qian did not undo his lockdown on the Dragon Meridian force.

"You leave first; I have a way to escape." Lu Yu's voice reached Chu Tiange and the others. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Chu Tiange looked towards the direction of the voice, after staring briefly, he turned swiftly and ordered everyone, "Withdraw from Black Sand City."

Chu Tianhe looked towards where Lu Yu stood with a complex expression, reluctantly choosing to leave Black Sand City.

As the Sand King Hall people watched Chu Tiange and others depart Black Sand City, Sha Qian, expressionless, regarded Lu Yu within the Sand King Hall and said, "They've left."

Lu Yu looked at the Sand Warriors suddenly appearing within the hall, glanced up to Sha Qian above, and said helplessly, "The moment I let go, I might be killed by you, right?"

Sha Qian remained silent, merely staring at Lu Yu quietly.
