3652 Courting Death Feng Jiu rested her head in one hand as she watched Fan Lin making the medicine and instructed him on how to extract the spirit herbs and use them to prepare the medicine. She took a sip of water from Qin Xin and glanced around the airship, then asked: “Why isn’t Luo Yu back yet?” Upon hearing her question, everyone realised that Luo Yu, who had gone to the forest below, still hadn’t returned after such a long time. At that moment, Du Fan said: “I will go down to take a look.” “I’ll go with you.” Wei Feng said, then they swept out of the airship’s boundary barrier and headed to the forest below. Down below, Luo Yu was unable to find the pair of eagle claws when he got there, but he saw the blood stains on the ground. So, he looked around and saw a group of mercenaries in the forest sitting around a fire laughing and drinking. “Did you take my eagle claws?” He asked them. He stood not far away from them and his eyes fell on the blood on the ground. Right next to where one of them was sitting, was something wrapped in a piece of black cloth that vaguely revealed its shape. It was undoubtedly a pair of eagle claws. “Your eagle claws? Hahahahaha! Brothers, listen. This man says that he has eagle claws. Hahaha, could this not be a human but actually a beast?” One of the mercenaries raised his head and laughed, mocking Luo Yu. They obviously didn’t take him seriously. When Luo Yu heard this, a cold light flashed across his eyes. He looked at those people and smiled: “It’s been a long time since anyone has dared to speak this way to me. You are very brave.” As soon as he had spoken, no one saw how his figure had flashed past and in a blink of an eye, the man who had originally stood about ten metres away from them was already in front of them. He had already grabbed the mercenary who had mocked him before and grabbed his throat, lifting him up into the air with one hand. “Want to die? Just say it and I will help you.” Luo Yu’s cold voice contained murderous intent as he tightened his grip around the mercenary’s neck. The mercenary’s strong body and strong back was held back by him with one hand. The mercenary struggled for a long time but was unable to break free. His face was flushed and he had difficulty breathing, then his face turned from red to purple and the strength of his struggle weakened little by little, until the sound of bones cracking could be heard and the mercenary stopped breathing. His limp body was lifted up with one hand and thrown into the middle of the group of mercenaries. His speed was too fast and it shocked the group of mercenaries. It wasn’t until the body of the dead mercenary had landed in front of them that they suddenly came to their senses. “How dare you kill him?” One of the mercenaries shouted angrily. He picked up the broadsword next to him and gathered his strength, then he rushed forward: “Brothers! Kill this kid!” “Kill him!” “Kill him!” The fierce voices of the mercenaries were filled with bloodthirsty intent. Even if they didn’t avenge the death of their brother, they couldn’t tolerate this man for being so presumptuous in front of them! If they didn’t kill him, the reputation of their mercenary group would be tarnished! When he saw the group of people rushing towards him, Luo Yu snorted coldly. With a flick of his sleeves, a sharp gust of wind came out of his palms and struck the mercenaries who had rushed forward. “Swish! Huff!” “Boom!” “Puff!” “Ah!” The mercenaries who had rushed forward were knocked back and the scene in front of him was total chaos in an instant…
