“To get some information!”
Lu Li explained. He continued to suppress the Feather Race warrior with Feather Wind up to the point where it eventually fainted. Then, Lu Li released a soul seed to take control of the powerful warrior.
“Soul slaves?”
Lu Renhuang raised his eyebrows. He couldn’t help but say, “Lu Li, soul slaves are not good for you. Your own power is what matters. Taking too many soul slaves will impact your development down the path.”
Lu Li understood this point perfectly, but he had no other ways at the moment. He smiled to Lu Renhuang as a response, but continued to plant the soul seed and turned the Feather Race warrior into his soul slave.
An hour passed and the Feather Race Earth Immortal Realm warrior became Lu Li’s soul slave. This warrior understood the ancient language so communication was not difficult.
He was an important person at the Feather Race, kind of like patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall. But he stated that it was a wild wish to try to trick the Feather Race into opening the shield because the emperor was in the city.
There were hidden Teleportation Formations outside the city that connected to the inside. But Lu Li did not have the courage to do so. The portal in the city was built in a castle where there were ancient formations developed by the Feather Race. When Lu Li was teleported there, it was possible that he might be trapped inside.
Therefore, Lu Li had to give up on opening the shield. He could spend a year striking it but still would not crack the shield. Lu Li had thought that he could infiltrate into the alien races’ cities and force their armies to step down. Now, he had to give this plan up. As for killing his way to the lands of the four races, it was more than difficult. The four races all had their own legacy artifact. The outcome for Lu Li could be unpredictable if he tried to go to the four lands with no clear knowledge…
“I should go back~”
Staying here any longer was pointless. Apart from killing more Feather Race scouts, the best Lu Li could do now was trick some powerful warriors out and kill them, which was not useful for the general situation.
Fearing that Jiang Qiling would be worried sick, Lu Li made the determined effort of flying to the Heaven Blood City. This time, he did not restrain his speed and traveled as fast as he could. He also killed all the scouts of the four alien races at sight.
Given how fast the Wicked Bead was, the Demon-slaying Battleground seemed insufficient. In merely two to three days, Lu Li had made it closer to Heaven Blood City. The four alien races were still attacking day and night. There was such a large crowd that Lu Li could not see them all.
While Lu Li was wondering if he should kill some of the four alien races with the Wicked Bead, space around him trembled as a shadow of a strong man appeared nearby.
“Asmodian Lord!”
Lu Li’s mind was tormented by anxiety. The Asmodian Lord must have been lying in wait nearby for Lu Li to come back. Lu Li controlled the Wicked Bead to fly away at once. He did not want to be transferred to another place again.
“Swish, swish~”
The Asmodian Lord dashed over to the front of the Wicked Bead. This time, he took out a black sword again and stabbed at the air. Space cracked and a hole appeared like last time. A whirl emerged and spread out rapidly. Before Lu Li could react, the Wicked Bead was devoured…
“What!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was on the city wall and so was Jiang Qiling. They were delighted to see the Wicked Bead coming back. None could foresee the fact that Asmodian Lord could appear so suddenly and transfer the Wicked Bead again.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was upset. There was no way they could fight the war like this. As soon as Lu Li came back, he would be transferred. The army of two million would continue to storm at the city. The Heaven Blood City would fall sooner or later.
“Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!”
Lu Li found himself again in the wildness. He was so upset. He had tried hard to go back to the Heaven Blood City, but he was transferred out again. Was it impossible for him to go back now?
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White woke up at this moment. It patted Lu Li with its little paws, sensing anxiety in him. Lu Renhuang opened his eyes. “What is going on?” Asked him.
Lu Li explained the chain of events. Both Lu Renhuang and Uncle Nine of the Jun Family frowned. There was nothing they could do. The Asmodian Lord’s skill was simply too freaky to be solved.
“I need to go back first~”
Lu Li thought about it. He decided to take a detour to Demon-slaying City. He thought it was unlikely that the Asmodian Lord would be at the valley to stop him from going back to the Demon-slaying City.
Taking a read of the orientation, Lu Li flew to the direction of human’s cities. This time, he was in a low profile. He tried his best to avoid scouts of the four races. If he had killed them all, the four alien races could tell his whereabouts.
This time, in less than two days he had arrived around the Heaven Blood City. However, he did not go in. He planned to go around quietly, get to the Monster Blood City, then fly back to the Demon-slaying City through the route of the valley and then teleport back to the Heaven Blood City from there.
“Buzzing~”
What freaked Lu Li out happened to be the space in front of him started to crack. He saw a sword piercing through space. A hole was generated and a whirl in space was created. The Wicked Bead was devoured once more…
“I cannot take this anymore!”
When Lu Li appeared in another land of the wild, he did not know what to say. The Asmodian Lord was so elusive. He seemed to have a mastery of Lu Li’s whereabouts. As soon as he appeared at a human city, Asmodian Lord would come and transfer him away.
It had been days. The four alien races kept attacking at the city. At this rate, in 10 days at most, the Heaven Blood City would be breached. It was true that all the warriors could retreat to the Monster Blood City and Demon-slaying City. The problem was that the Asmodian Lord gave Lu Li no chance to get back. What should he do? Just wander around?
He could not break down cities of the four alien races nor could he get back to human’s cities. His presence out here was pointless.
He did not move the Wicked Bead. He stopped to think deeply about a way out. In the end, he realized that there was no other way but to release the Walking Puppets to distract Asmodian Lord so that he could find a chance to sneak back.
Lu Li flew the Wicked Bead back. Two days later, before he reached the Heaven Blood City, he had set free fifty Walking Puppets and had given them a command for them to attack any living beings at sight.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
The fifty rushing Walking Puppets shook the ground. They traveled fast, stirring up much dirt. Even though there were merely fifty of them, they seemed to be an army of thousands.
“Ye Cha?”
When Lu Li went past a mountain, he saw some marks left by Ye Cha. Lu Li followed the marks and eventually entered a secluded cave.
“This is impressive!”
The cave was laced with formations of illusion. This was a cave that could teleport him back to the city. Lu Li flew the Wicked Bead in. There was a maze here. Fortunately, Lu Li had a map. He followed the instruction and finally arrived at the expanse and found a Teleportation Formation.
“Saint Lord!”
Ye Cha was waiting here. He saluted Lu Li with respect. Then later put Ye Cha into the Wicked Bead at once. If Asmodian Lord struck, Ye Cha might lose his life in an instant.
“Buzzing~”
Lu Li checked carefully to make sure that nobody was nearby before he put the Feather Race warrior and the five Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves out. They were told to check the surroundings to be absolutely sure that the Asmodian Lord was not lurking somewhere here. Having the confirmation, Lu Li stepped out from the Wicked Bead.
“Swish—”
Lu Li was terrified by the turn of event. As he appeared outside the Wicked Bead, space was torn apart. A glowing sword came toward his head.
“Asmodian Lord!”
From the cracks of the void, Lu Li saw some blood-filled eyes. He flew into a panic. Little did he expect that even six Earth Immortal Realm warriors could not sense the presence of Asmodian Lord.
The Asmodian Lord’s sword was moving so fast. It must be a Quasi Relic. Its sharpness was beyond description. Though Lu Li had the Quasi Relic armor, he might not be able to survive the attack.
When Semi-God Realm warriors devoted his effort to move, he would not let Lu Li, a mere Noble Lord Realm warrior, escape. Otherwise, the warrior would not qualify as a Semi-God Realm warrior. At the moment, Lu Li did not even have the time to get into the Wicked Bead because the space around him was frozen!
Death was knocking on his door again…
