Chapter 1080 The Battle Between Experts

Xu Lingyun’s captivating beauty sent ripples of excitement through the crowd, but reason held them back.

The Blackwood Forest loomed like a monstrous threat, a place where danger lurked around every corner. Entering its depths was akin to a suicide mission for them.

Suddenly, Lu Yu emerged from the crowd and strode toward the stage.

Reaching Xu Lingyun, he declared with a resolute nod, “I accept this quest. I’ll head into Blackwood Forest and locate your missing battle pet.”

A radiant smile blossomed on Xu Lingyun’s face. “Wonderful! Let’s depart without delay; time is of the essence.”

Lu Yu approached the notice board and firmly secured it. Turning back to Xu Lingyun, he reassured her with another smile, “Consider it done. I leave now, and you can rest assured. Your Azure Water Dragon will be back before the day is through.”

“Such confidence is admirable. However, are you fully aware of the Blackwood Forest’s perils?”

She tilted her head, studying Lu Yu with a spark of curiosity.

Lu Yu offered a slight nod. “My knowledge of the Blackwood Forest is limited. After all, I’m new to Skyplume City and haven’t had the chance to learn the local intricacies.”

“But extensive knowledge isn’t a necessity,” he continued calmly. “While the

Blackwood Forest may strike fear in others, to me, it presents no challenge.”

Lu Yu’s confident words ignited a flurry of excited chatter amongst the onlookers. In their eyes, he was nothing more than a brash young man, boasting without understanding the true dangers that awaited him. They scoffed at the idea of him venturing into the forest without a hint of apprehension. Most believed he’d be whimpering in fear the moment he set foot inside.

Undeterred by the skepticism, Lu Yu turned toward Hu Zhan. “Alright, let’s get going. We have no time to waste.”

Just then, a towering figure emerged from the crowd, drawing everyone’s attention. Clad in gleaming white armor, Li Tianen pushed his way through the throng with an air of self-importance.

The crowd instinctively parted, creating a path for the renowned warrior. Li Tianen marched towards the notice board, a confident smirk playing on his lips as he met Xu Lingyun’s gaze.

A hint of awkwardness flickered across Xu Lingyun’s face as she offered a polite smile. “Captain Li, what a pleasant surprise. This is just a simple search quest, truly not a matter that requires your esteemed presence.”

“I happened to be nearby and overheard about the quest,” Li Tianen explained, feigning nonchalance. “Initially, I had no intention of accepting it. Such a task is beneath my abilities, a waste of my valuable time.”

“However,” he continued, his eyes flashing with disdain as they locked onto Lu Yu, “witnessing a certain someone so readily accept the quest piqued my curiosity.”

A collective gasp resonated through the crowd. Li Tianen’s involvement had injected a thrilling twist into the situation.

“This quest has garnered Captain Li’s attention? This is unexpected!” “Damn! If Captain Li takes action, this quest will be a breeze!”

“No doubt! With Captain Li’s prowess, the Blackwood Forest won’t pose any challenge. He’ll find that dragon in no time!”

“Hahaha! It looks like the outcome is already clear. Captain Li will undoubtedly be the one to complete the quest.”

“Though, I wonder why he would even bother with such a trivial task. Shouldn’t he be occupied with more significant matters?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The crowd buzzed with excitement, their unwavering confidence in Li Tianen’s abilities hanging heavy in the air.

Xu Lingyun, however, couldn’t help but voice her confusion. “Captain Li, why the sudden interest in this quest?” She asked hesitantly, her eyes fixed on his retreating form.

Li Tianen paused, a smirk playing on his lips. “Didn’t I make it clear? Because

Lu Yu accepted it, so I want this quest too.”

Confusion clouded Xu Lingyun’s features. This wasn’t the response she’d anticipated.

Li Tianen turned back, his gaze locking on Lu Yu. “Consider this quest completed by nightfall. You can head back and relax.”

“Bored, are we?” Lu Yu countered with a hint of amusement in his voice.

“Taking on a random quest for no reason? How does that concern me?”

“It’s this misconception that bothers me,” Li Tianen growled. “Zhao Qingya somehow believes your strength rivals mine. Absurd! ”

“This quest serves as a test of your abilities. Give it your all. But make no mistake, I’ll be the first one to complete it. Don’t dare enter the Blackwood Forest only to come crawling back out. That would be utterly dull.”

Their conversation instantly drew the crowd’s rapt attention. The revelation that a mere quest had morphed into a personal contest between the two warriors sent a jolt of excitement through them.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

This wasn’t what Xu Lingyun had envisioned. She’d simply sought help in finding her beloved pet, not fuel for a competitive showdown.

Lu Yu simply shrugged, his expression unreadable. With a final turn, he melted back into the crowd and disappeared.

“You think you can just walk away?!” Li Tianen roared, his temper flaring at Lu Yu’s nonchalance. He clenched his fists and barked orders to his subordinates. “Everyone, gather around! We’re heading into the Blackwood Forest. I will be the one to find the Azure Water Dragon first!”

“Yes, sir!” his soldiers responded in a thunderous chorus. They swiftly mounted their horses and charged off, a whirlwind of determined energy.

Stunned silence descended upon the crowd as they watched the two parties depart.

“What just happened? Why are these two fighting?”

“This Lu Yu guy is in over his head. Does he not know Li Tianen holds grudges like nobody’s business?”

“Careful with your words, my friend. Walls have ears, you know.”

“Besides, this Lu Yu seems like a foreigner. Can’t blame him for not knowing.

But why would Li Tianen target him over something like this?”

“Well, this is getting interesting. This little competition could easily escalate into a full-blown feud.’

“That wouldn’t be good. Li Tianen is a hero of Skyplume City. If they do fight, we’d definitely side with him. But this outsider… if he gets chased out because of this, wouldn’t that be a shame?”

A wave of curiosity rippled through the crowd. Xu Lingyun, still rooted to the spot, watched them disappear with a growing sense of unease. She couldn’t shake the feeling that this spontaneous quest had set something dangerous in motion.

“Perhaps it’s best to return for now, Miss,” a maid suggested gently. “We might have some answers by nightfall.”

Xu Lingyun, her brow furrowed in worry, offered a weak nod in agreement.

“Alright then….”
