39: Chapter 39 I am Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng makes his move!

"According to the intelligence, this person is just an ordinary human."

"Currently, he is a student at Jianghai City No. 1 High School."

Zhou Guangyuan said slowly.

"A student?"

"Deacon, what's the point of capturing a student!"

Zhang Tianrui asked, somewhat puzzled, but faced with the Deacon's terrifying gaze, he very sensibly shut his mouth.

"What you need to know, you will naturally be told. What you aren't supposed to know, keep your mouth shut about."

"Find him as quickly as possible. Remember, do not take his life. It would be best to make him believe in our Lord and bring him under the control of our sect."

"The fewer people who know about this, the better. Do not make too much of a commotion."

Zhou Guangyuan said slowly, and Zhang Tianrui nodded hurriedly, then asked.

"Deacon, what is this person's name?"

"This person is named Lu Zheng!"

"Ah!"

Just after Zhou Guangyuan spoke the name Lu Zheng, Teacher Li Shuang, who was lying injured on the ground, was stunned. A look of astonishment appeared in her eyes, and she subconsciously cried out, thinking she had misheard.

A giant question mark emerged in her mind.

Lu Zheng, who exactly are you? How did you get involved with an evil cult again?

Your luck is just too terrible!

Teacher Li Shuang felt unspeakably bitter inside, and at this moment, her strange behavior caught Zhou Guangyuan's attention. The bare-chested old man from the evil cult stared at her.

"Do you know this person?"

"I don't know him."

Teacher Li Shuang tried her best to pretend she knew nothing, not daring to look at the controlled Lu Zheng on the side at all, fearing that her odd behavior would be discovered.

Heavens, this is just too cruel!

If the two people before her knew that the youth beside them was Lu Zheng, there would truly be no way out.

Zhou Guangyuan could never have imagined that the person the sect wanted to find was right in front of him, and he immediately looked at Zhang Tianrui.

"Knock her out. This person is an Evolver; letting the divine statue devour her while she is still alive will minimize waste."

"Yes, Deacon."

Zhang Tianrui nodded, then walked up to Teacher Li Shuang and struck her neck with a palm. Teacher Li Shuang only had time to sigh in her heart before she lost consciousness and fainted.

"My life is finished!"

"Lu Wen, hurry here; perhaps you can still collect the bodies of me and your younger brother..."

After doing this, Zhang Tianrui respectfully said to Zhou Guangyuan: "Deacon, rest assured, I will definitely complete the sect's mission and bring Lu Zheng back."

At this moment, Zhou Guangyuan ignored Zhang Tianrui, sensing that something was wrong. If this female Evolver didn't know who Lu Zheng was, why would she make a sound upon hearing his name?

She must know who Lu Zheng is.

Furthermore, the relationship between the two might not be simple. Suddenly, an absurd thought appeared in his mind, and he immediately looked at the motionless youth beside Zhang Tianrui.

It seemed he had ignored this person from the very beginning.

Zhou Guangyuan walked up to Lu Zheng. He could see that the youth's mind had already been controlled by the divine statue, having lost his self-awareness and being only able to be controlled by others. Then, under Zhang Tianrui's uncomprehending gaze, he spoke slowly.

"What is your name?"

Under the gaze of Zhou Guangyuan and Zhang Tianrui, the youth slowly opened his mouth. At this moment, Zhang Tianrui had guessed the Deacon's thoughts, but he scoffed at the Deacon's actions—this youth was just someone he had found randomly in the crowd; how could it possibly be Lu Zheng?

If the youth were Lu Zheng, he would die the next second.

"My name is... Lu Zheng!"

Lu Zheng spoke slowly, and the moment he did, both Zhou Guangyuan and Zhang Tianrui's eyes widened, and their bodies stiffened.

The latter, Zhang Tianrui, was shocked. The person he had found randomly really was Lu Zheng; a wave of joy surged in his heart, as he had already completed the mission.

The former, the old man Zhou Guangyuan, was not merely shocked by this sudden turn of events. He slowly lowered his head, his eyes filled with shock, as he saw the youth move—a fist had struck his lower abdomen.

Lu Zheng's eyes were cold as he slowly looked at Zhou Guangyuan before him. Zhou Guangyuan smiled slightly; although he didn't know how the youth had broken free from control, surely a single fist couldn't turn the tables!

"I was looking for..."

"Ah!"

"Bang!"

Before Zhou Guangyuan could finish his sentence, he felt a violent pain in his lower abdomen. His entire face twisted in agony, and he hunched over like a shrimp.

He could not imagine how the power on the youth's fist could be so terrifying.

Under this immense power, the old man Zhou Guangyuan was sent flying directly and smashed heavily against the wall in the distance.

"Fortunately, I made it just in time!"

"I would like to ask, what business does your evil cult have with me, Lu Zheng?"

Lu Zheng twisted his neck, then looked at Zhang Tianrui, who was frozen in place and unable to speak. Zhang Tianrui's breath hitched, his pupils dilated, his scalp tingled, and his whole body shuddered.

Terrified, he took a few steps back, pointing a finger at Lu Zheng, unable to speak.

At this moment, no words could describe the shock in Zhang Tianrui's heart, and the area below him grew hot as he wet himself.

"Child, you have angered me!"

"Even if you are Lu Zheng, I will make you pay the price!"

A roar came from the secret room. The old man Zhou Guangyuan, who had been sent flying, had now changed his appearance. His thin body had grown larger again, muscles bulging, completely transforming into a hulking old man two meters tall.

His eyes were bloodshot, staring fixedly at the youth Lu Zheng not far away.

"I didn't expect that you had actually deceived everyone. You are not some so-called ordinary person at all."

"Your strength surprises me a little."

"But, it is only surprise."

"I am a Third-Rank Deacon of the Holy Spirit Sect; you used your 'pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger' act on the wrong person!"

Zhou Guangyuan took huge strides, charging toward Lu Zheng at lightning speed. He had no special abilities, but his body was his strongest weapon.

He had once fought and killed many official Evolvers; his powerful body gave him invincible confidence. Just now, it was only his own negligence that caused him to suffer a loss.

But, there will not be a next time.

"Whether I used it on the wrong person, we'll see after a try."

"I'd like to see if you have the strength to capture me!"

Lu Zheng snorted coldly. He also had quite a bit of anger in his heart to release, so he charged toward Zhou Guangyuan to fight. At the same time, with a thought, the Perception skill was activated successfully, and the Sharpness skill was activated successfully.

Zhou Guangyuan's movements appeared clearly in Lu Zheng's mind.

On his fist, an inexplicable power surged.

"Kid, I forgot to tell you—in this state, my defense is invincible!"

Zhou Guangyuan laughed wildly. Facing Lu Zheng's attack, he had no intention of defending; trading injury for injury was his fighting style, and usually, he would be fine while the enemy had already been beaten to death by him.

In an instant, the two made contact. A fist the size of an adult's head, carrying a terrifying gust of wind, struck toward Lu Zheng's head.

"Bang!"

But this terrifying blow was easily blocked by Lu Zheng, who simply extended one hand.

"What!"

"This is impossible!"

"Who exactly are you!"

Zhou Guangyuan's pupils contracted. Seeing his attack easily caught by one hand, he screamed, and in that instant, something in his heart seemed to be collapsing...

"I am the Lu Zheng you are looking for."

"Next, it's my turn!"
