Chapter 279: The Beautiful Elder Sister Liu Erlong, The Rise of the Cao Thief's Heart!
"Who is this child, and how did he end up in a place like the City of Slaughter?"
Upon seeing Lin Yu, the beautiful woman—Liu Erlong—couldn't help but pause slightly, then furrowed her brows. After leaving the crowd, she walked toward Lin Yu.
"Is she coming over?"
Seeing Liu Erlong walking towards him, Lin Yu couldn't help but be surprised, but he didn't plan to avoid her.
After all, it seemed like they were the only two normal people in the entire Valley of Death. She was probably coming to team up with him, or perhaps to persuade him not to enter the City of Slaughter.
After all, even though he appeared much older than his real age, he was only in his teens, and some people might still consider him a child.
"Come with me!"
When Liu Erlong reached Lin Yu, without saying much, she grabbed his hand and pulled him aside.
"Little one, what's your name? How did you end up here? Do you know this is the City of Slaughter? This is no place for a child."
After pulling Lin Yu aside, Liu Erlong looked at him, her brows furrowing as she spoke.
"Don't be too agitated, sister. My name is Long Aotian. I know this is the City of Slaughter, and I came here for this very reason!"
Lin Yu smiled and responded to Liu Erlong's words.
Hearing the young boy refer to her as "sister," Liu Erlong couldn't help but feel amused, even though she was nearly fifty years old. But at the same time, she felt quite pleased.
After all, which woman doesn't enjoy being called young?
"Long Aotian, that's a very bold name. I'll just call you Aotian. You say you came here for the City of Slaughter—do you know this place is very dangerous? It's a deadly place!"
When Liu Erlong heard that Lin Yu had come to the City of Slaughter for that very reason, her tone became more concerned as she smiled helplessly.
"I know!"
Lin Yu replied directly.
"The City of Slaughter, huh? It's the legendary domain left by the Shura God. Inside, the use of soul skills is prohibited, and it values killing. That's why all the evil soul masters and fallen soul masters who can't survive outside gather here to seek refuge. This was mentioned in a livestream, and everyone knows about it."
"I..."
When Liu Erlong heard Lin Yu mention the livestream, she immediately realized she had said too much.
The City of Slaughter had already been introduced in the livestream, so everyone on the Douluo Continent probably knew about it, and this young man before her would certainly not be unaware.
"Since you know the dangers, why are you still trying to go in to die?"
Looking at Lin Yu, for some reason, Liu Erlong felt a sense of closeness rise in her heart and sighed helplessly.
"Who says I'm going in to die? You don't know my strength, sister."
"The City of Slaughter is indeed dangerous, but if I can get the chance to challenge the Hell Road, I can obtain the legendary Killing God domain. That's why I'm here!"
Lin Yu wasn't annoyed by Liu Erlong's advice. After all, he knew she was only looking out for him. But he couldn't help but chuckle at being underestimated.
"This..."
Hearing Lin Yu express such confidence in his own strength, Liu Erlong didn't know what to say.
However, recalling the livestream where Tang San, Xiao Gang's disciple, had entered the City of Slaughter around the same age—just sixteen or seventeen—and successfully cleared the Hell Road, Liu Erlong wondered if she had been too quick to judge.
Had she assumed too much just because he was young?
"By the way, sister, I don't even know your name. What brings you to the City of Slaughter?"
When Liu Erlong was rendered speechless, Lin Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.
For such a stunning, mature woman to come to the City of Slaughter, he couldn't help but wonder. Was she also after the Killing God domain?
But upon hearing his question, Liu Erlong's gaze turned complicated, and she couldn't help but sigh.
"My name is Liu Erlong. I came to the City of Slaughter to find someone..."
"Liu Erlong?!"
Upon hearing her name, Lin Yu's pupils shrank, and he couldn't believe it.
No way! What a coincidence!
The stunning, mature woman before him, with her alluring figure and beautiful appearance, was actually Liu Erlong?
Because of the novels he had read in his past life and Liu Erlong's behavior in the livestream, Lin Yu had always thought of Liu Erlong as a love-struck fool.
But he had to admit, Liu Erlong, despite being somewhat obsessed with Yu Xiao Gang, was actually a really good person.
In the original work, in the Heaven Dou Imperial City's advanced soul master academy, nearly every prominent academy only recruited noble students. The only one willing to admit commoners was the Heavenly Water Academy, but with a series of requirements.
Only Liu Erlong's Blue Tyrant Academy was completely open to the common folk.
Moreover, the fact that Liu Erlong was willing to advise a stranger like him to leave the City of Slaughter proved she was a kind woman.
But why, with such a kind-hearted and beautiful woman, did she fall for someone as hypocritical and despicable as Yu Xiao Gang?
Lin Yu couldn't help but feel helpless.
At this moment, Lin Yu admitted to himself that he had developed the heart of a thief!
How could someone as beautiful as this big sister be wasted on a hypocrite like Yu Xiao Gang?
"What's wrong? Is my name strange?"
Noticing Lin Yu's shocked expression when he heard her name, Liu Erlong couldn't help but laugh helplessly.
Since her name was "Er Long," it didn't sound like a woman's name. Liu Erlong had long since gotten used to others being shocked when they first heard it.
"No! No! Sister Erlong, your name is great. I think it suits your personality very well!"
After coming to his senses, Lin Yu quickly shook his head and smiled.
"It suits my personality?"
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Liu Erlong couldn't help but laugh coquettishly. "You little one, you really know how to talk. I wonder how many girls you'll end up fooling in the future!"
"This isn't flattery. I truly believe Sister Erlong, your name fits your personality. You look strong and capable!"
Seeing Liu Erlong smile, Lin Yu, of course, seized the opportunity. Smiling, he said, "And don't say I'm fooling little girls. I don't like little girls. What I like most are mature big sisters like you!"
As he spoke, Lin Yu pulled out a thread from the system space, the Red String of Fate, which was meant for him and Liu Erlong.
As the string disappeared from his hand, Liu Erlong, having just heard Lin Yu's words, felt a sudden blush on her face. She became a little annoyed.
"Little brat, what are you saying? You haven't even grown up yet, and you dare to tease your sister?"
