Chapter 15: Nobles? Kill Them
After Yakazhuo death, Lu Yu cast an admiring glance at Kuina.
He had to admit—her timing was impeccable.
It almost felt like Lu Yu had baited Yakazhuo on purpose. The moment Yakazhuo managed to grab Lu Yu, his psychological guard completely dropped. That false sense of victory made him lower his defenses.
That mistake got him killed.
If not for that moment of carelessness, even in Kuina's current state, a sneak attack wouldn't have been enough to take him out in one strike.
"What a damn good battle," Lu Yu muttered.
"But this guy, this so-called former Heavenly Dragon Guard... he really was just someone who got tossed aside."
"Died to two kids. How pathetic."
Suddenly, an arrogant voice cut through the air.
"Hey! How about it? Do you two want to become my personal guards?"
They both turned their heads to see a man in lavish clothing step forward on the deck. He oozed aristocratic arrogance. Even the other nobles around him seemed overly respectful, almost groveling.
