The fifteen men garbed in similar armours responded to Keanu's order and surrounded Lu Zheng, baring teeth and fangs.
~Fifteen idiots all at the Condensation realm. This will be a walk in the park~
"Brother, do you need my help?" Hong Haoyu asked.
"Don't worry brother. I won't need to even use my Qi" Lu Zheng chuckled.
"You're courting death" One of the guards was visibly displeased by Lu Zheng's arrogance.
The guard's fists turned brown as he charged towards Lu Zheng to punch him.
"Hmm" Lu Zheng easily dodged the guard's punches and punched him in the stomach, sending him streaking through the air.
Even as Lu Zheng had avoided his bones, the guard's internal organs were displaced by the punch and standing became a huge difficulty.
"Let me warn you. If you want to dream of achieving any sort of victory, come at me at once. All of you!" Lu Zheng shouted as he took an offensive stance.
"It's your death!"
Rushing at him, all fifteen guards attacked Lu Zheng with all sorts of techniques.
Lu Zheng was at the second tier of Domain Formation realm and had superior cultivation base. He also had Xue Ritian's ten million years' worth of battle experience.
No one on Earth could compare to him in battle experience.
When he was done, Lu Zheng was standing alone in the midst of fifteen men who were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
"You don't value your life!" Keanu shouted as he released his Domain which was filled with sharp howling wind.
Lu Zheng's expression turned serious as he shot a beam of fire at Keanu.
His control over his techniques was great and the fire only burnt Keanu's robe till all that was left were his undergarments.
He had embarrassed Keanu.
"You… you will pay for this! The Sea Fish Cult will come for you!" Keanu threatened as he turned tail and ran away.
"We haven't been here for thirty minutes and we've already made enemies" Hong Haoyu sighed as he walked towards Lu Zheng.
Running to Lu Zheng, the lady kowtowed before him, begging: "I'm sorry, I've made the Sea Fish Cult your enemy. Please forgive me"
Picking her up, Lu Zheng placed his palm on her swollen cheek and used his Qi to heal it: "It is nothing. One should never cause a woman to cry, especially one like you. Now, what is your name?"
"My name? Lannah, Lannah Greaves" Lannah responded as she felt her cheek. "Many thanks foreigner, what's your name?"
"I am Lu Zheng and this here is Hong Haoyu. We come from China and are here to seek refuge" Lu Zheng responded unhurriedly.
"All the way from the Asian Union?" Lannah muttered.
"Hmm. Lannah, this Sea Fish Cult, how strong is it?" Hong Haoyu asked.
"Very powerful. Here in Hawaii, there are only two forces; Water Raising Palace and Blazing Flame Palace. The Sea Fish Cult is an organisation Water Raising Palace created discreetly to collect vital stones from us. We the businessmen on the shoreline do not belong to any of these forces despite their many attempts to recruit us. As we are on Water Raising Palace's territory, we can only comply with the Sea Fish Cult. Our situation is really terrible" Lannah replied.
"Why not join one of those Palaces?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Our cultivation bases are too low. The two Palaces are forces deployed by the Northern American Union to control us. We natives can only join them or start businesses to survive. If we joined one of the Palaces, we would be robbed of our business and forced to become slaves due to our low cultivation bases" Lannah spoke on.
"We are in deep shit. Running away from one Palace only to make enemies with another" Themur lamented.
"I am truly sorry. If there is any way for me to make it up for you, tell me and I'll do my best to help you" Lannah offered.
"You can start by becoming our tour guide" Lu Zheng accepted Lannah's offer.
"A tour guide?" Lannah was surprised. "I guess I can do that"
"Brother Lu" Shu Mingling called.
"What is it?" Lu Zheng asked.
"We Shu clansmen would like to return to Juanshei Sect" Shu Mingling stated his intentions.
Lu Zheng made an 'oh' sound with his mouth and nodded in understanding. It was only natural for them to wish to return.
"I would also like to return" Liu Hao said. "My clansmen must be worried. It's been many months since I've seen them"
Lu Zheng turned to Hong Haoyu and asked: "Do you also want to leave?"
Hong Haoyu met his gaze and glanced at the huge ships at the dock before replying: "I want to see the world"
Lu Zheng nodded and said to the others: "I wish you best of luck in your endeavours"
"Hmm" Shu Mingling nodded before leaving with Shu Teng and Shu Jun. Liu Hao also walked with them.
"Let's go" Lu Zheng said to Lannah.
"Alright"
