“Boom, boom, boom~”
Among the mountains at the west of the Demon-slaying Battleground, a streak of cyan-colored light flashed by, followed by more. Many rays of light landed on the mountains, causing them to collapse. The ground cracked, the rivers were cut off and the stones and forests were ruined.
Since Emperor of Heaven Reverse ascended to the Divinity, the Demon-slaying Battleground had become an arena for the alien races and human race for war, which had lasted many years. The battleground was scarred and cracked. However, the damage done this time was more severe than the past hundreds of thousands of years’ battles combined. Everywhere the Wicked Bead went past, the mountains were flattened, the ground was cracked and the rivers were rechanneled by force...
The group of Semi-God Realm warriors went after the Wicked Bead for five days. When Lu Li arrived at the entrance of the Feather Land of the West, he took a break from cultivation and changed route to the north. The Semi-God Realm warriors shifted directions as well. Those lagging behind were told to go around to intercept Lu Li!
There were always dozens of Semi-God Realm warriors following Lu Li closely in case he vanished. They had been attacking for five days but every time, the Wicked Bead’s only reaction was giving out a glow. The Wicked Bead did not even tremble.
Jun Hongye and Chen Tianxian once hunted down the Wicked Bead so they were well aware of the strength of the Wicked Bead. However, it was the first time some other Semi-God Realm warriors first saw the Wicked Bead. They only knew that the stories they heard were true.
Five days was a short time for those warriors. However, upon reaching the northern border, Lu Li once again shifted toward the west. The warriors sniffed a hint of strangeness.
Lu Li was... circling around?
They had thought that Lu Li was up to something or was fleeing to someplace. However, they had been going around in circles at the Demon-slaying Battleground. Lu Li said nothing, nor did he lead them to any traps or run to some bizarre places.
What was Lu Li doing?
As a matter of fact, many were worried that Lu Li might sneak into the Prison of Primordial Chaos because they could not enter the first four levels. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to crack down the spatial barrier and took such a long time to arrive at the Heaven Reverse Universe.
Lu Li could go to the Inferno or Prison of Wood, but they did not have access. That was why they had been following Lu Li so closely. However, it did not seem that Lu Li was going to the Prison of Primordial Chaos. He was only going around in circles.
Something was wrong!
The warriors kept alerted. They kept checking with psychic power to see what Lu Li’s plan was. Two days later, when Lu Li arrived at the west, he turned around to the east. It was evident now that he was circling around in the Demon-slaying Battleground.
“Stop!”
Wu Guangde shouted, “Tell those at back to not go after Lu Li anymore. Let them go to that Demon-slaying City. Conquer the city and go to the Great Land to capture Lu Li’s families!”
Chen Tianxian, Jun Hongye, and Feng Wanhu agreed. Since there were warriors lagging behind, they wouldn’t do much help by staying behind. It would be better that they could be sent to the Great Land and capture Lu Li’s families so that he could be forced to give up the Wicked Bead.
What was the reason that they had gone through so much trouble to the Heaven Reverse Universe?
This was Lu Li’s hometown with his families. A coercion would be easy! After Brother Six of the Wu Family searched Lu Feiyang’s soul, he had learned pretty much everything about Lu Li. Information such as the population of the Lu Family, where was it located, and who Lu Li cared about—who were his friends.
That being said...
Lu Feiyang had been stationed at the Ocean Land of the East for years. He did not know much about the Great Land. He had no idea that Lu, Jiang, Ye and Kong Family had been relocated to the Prison of Wood. Of course, Lu Zhengyang instructed that this relocation should be kept confidential.
“How about I go and let them know? And I will lead them to the Demon-slaying City.”
A Semi-God Realm warrior of the Qi Family was agitated after several days of chase. Wu Guangde nodded and said, “Sure, Qi Shanhe, I will let you handle this. You will have command over those Semi-God Realm warriors. Let them know that this comes from the Family Patriarchs. Do figure out ways to capture Lu Li’s families and friends. It is of utmost importance.”
“Sure. Don’t worry. I will take care of it!”
Qi Shanhe grinned. According to the information Brother Six of the Wu Family gathered, the Heaven Reverse Universe only had two Semi-God Realm warriors, Patriarch of Law Enforcement and Lu Li. Patriarch of Law Enforcement had just reached the Semi-God Realm and as far as Qi Shanhe was concerned, was not worthy of worry. Qi Shanhe believed that taking dozens of Semi-God Realm warriors with him, they could sweep across the Great Land and capture whoever they wanted.
“Whoosh~”
Qi Shanhe left and went to the warriors that were left behind. He ran into them in several hours.
Qi Shanhe was a capable warrior and was at the middle stage of the Semi-God Realm. Once he retold the Family Patriarchs’ orders, the other warriors went with him toward the Demon-slaying City without any hesitation.
For those Semi-God Realm warriors, following others around was boring. To go to the Great Land to capture and slaughter Lu Li’s families would offer more kicks.
This was especially true for the warriors that came from families that once pursued the Wicked Bead. Those warriors wished they could fly to the Great Land at once and murder everyone related to Lu Li.
“Oh no!”
As soon as the Semi-God Realm warriors changed directions, He Yue noticed. Over the past couple of days, half of her subsidiary bodies were killed. That being said, there were still many of them hiding in different places. Forty-some Semi-God Realm warriors were flying toward the Demon-slaying City. It was not surprising that she would find out.
Lu Li was still cultivating. He did not notice. Patriarch of Law Enforcement asked with a frown, “What is it?”
He Yue said with worry, “A group of forty to fifty weaker Semi-God Realm warriors are flying to the Demon-slaying City. I believe they are trying to break the city to enter the Great Land.”
“What?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement’s expressions changed. If the dozens of Semi-God Realm warriors entered the Great Land, then the human race would face a tragic catastrophe. Those Semi-God Realm warriors would not sweat over killing people. They had butchered their way from the Ocean Land of the East, ruining six or seven cities, resulting in a casualty of millions including both Asmodians and humans.
Who knew how many cities would be harmed once they went to the Great Land? They had come for the Wicked Bead. If they could not obtain the bead or capture Lu Li’s families, they might resort to random killing in a fit of rage. To them, Heaven Reverse Universe was an inferior place and the humans here were inferior as well, like animals...
What could Patriarch of Law Enforcement do? He could not leave the Wicked Bead. Even if he could, he would be killed instantly.
“Lu Li said he needed 10 days?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement said to He Yue after some thought, “Let your subsidiary bodies send a message to the patriarchs in the Demon-slaying City. Let them activate the city shield and hang in there for a few days. Lu Li will finish in three days. By then, whether we should retreat or stay, it will be up to him.”
There were over one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors, of which 10 were at the peak. Patriarch of Law Enforcement could do nothing to them. If Lu Li could not defeat them once he finished cultivating, then Lu Li and the many people of the Great Land would have to wait as death befell them...
“What is Lu Li studying? Some impressive skill?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement looked at Lu Li. He was calm. He could force God of Barbarian and God of Sorcerer to concede. A glint of hope rose in Patriarch of Law Enforcement’s heart. Maybe... Lu Li could create another miracle.
