Chapter 1501: Fallen Battlefield
These four would stop at nothing to hunt them, and yet they could not kill them off. Therefore, they were quite a tricky problem to deal with.
Wu Yu wanted a peaceful life with Luo Pin and to enjoy carefree days. But these guys just would not oblige. They were determined on the chase.
After the last time, they still had not given up. Tian Ming Dragon Lord"s feelings were unknown. Was he still intent on marrying Luo Pin? Or taking revenge?
As for Tian Jian Dragon Lord, it was definitely revenge.
It was an indignity that they could not swallow.
Their threat definitely came from Sky Heart Dragon Emperor. The understanding had been that the arrangements would be made within a millenium"s time. If Sky Heart Dragon Emperor came proposing marriage, only Wu Jun and his family would be troubled.
Firstly, allowing the young Luo Pin out was a mistake. If at the time, Sky Heart Dragon Emperor could not even see Luo Pin, then they would have to take responsibility.
Sky Heart Dragon Emperor probably did not know that Luo Pin was outside now, nor that they were hunting Wu Yu. Tian Que Dragon King and his siblings probably wanted to kill Wu Yu. As for Luo Pin, it was unclear what their intentions were. Because it was all too clear that Tian Ming Dragon Lord was far from her match. Even Tian Jian Dragon Lord had lost to her. Perhaps only Tian Que Dragon King could subdue her.
The problem was: could Tian Que Dragon King accept Luo Pin as she was, she who already had a husband for the longest time?
Therefore, they were probably all frustrated. Luo Pin"s strength had been a spanner in their works.
The matter of the Hundred Years, Thousand Time talisman had not spread throughout the Sky Heart tribe. However, Sky Will Dragon King had sought out Wu Jun and his family to discuss it. They applied pressure on them, but did not insist that Wu Jun ask Luo Pin to return.
Now, they were thinking of every possible way to get rid of Wu Yu. How Luo Pin would be dealt with was a question for later. The Sky Heart tribe would not mind another genius, even a flawed one. As to who she would be betrothed to, they could decide that later.
But Wu Yu must die.
Now Luo Pin was roaming, and Wu Yu would be by her side. They had lofty goals, and Sky Will Dragon King had not insisted Luo Pin return. However, Tian Que Dragon King had found Wu Yu this time through his parents" relations.
And this time, in order to prevent Wu Yu from escaping, they had prepared amply!
Before, they had missed them time and again. Finally, they caught up to the pair before they could depart!
Enjoying the sights and sounds of the sky palaces, and then stumbling upon these four, was an even more unpleasant experience than swallowing a fly. They had walked into their trap.
Wu Yu had underestimated how badly they wanted to kill him.
The last time, the Tian Que Dragon Palace had been unable to trap them, and Tian Que Dragon King had already sought out an infallible plan.
After all, they were young and raring to go. They had refused their elders" offer to send reinforcements, but had accepted some objects which would help.
Most important amongst them was their trap, Gateway to Fallen Battlefield.
Fallen Battlefield was a broken mini world. It was said to be a corner of the sky palaces that had fallen after the immortals" fight. It was a completely sealed off world, and the mystical dragon tribe"s ancestors had fas.h.i.+oned many immortal designs within to seal it off completely. It was used as a prison against enemies. Once inside, even the elite immortal kings would find it hard to break out.
The Gateway to Fallen Battlefield was a little like the Gateway to the Ancient Demon Realm. At first, a revered dragon possessed it, and then he had given it to Sky Will Dragon King. In all these years, Sky Will Dragon King had killed many opponents thanks to Fallen Battlefield.
Many ghostly kings among their number.
If one wanted to break out of Fallen Battlefield, one had to beat the owner of the Gateway to Fallen Battlefield and more. One had to control them fully, perhaps even kill them, in order to come out.
When traveling, Wu Yu suddenly saw a huge ring descend from above. There was no sign of its presence, and he could smell that it was Tian Que Dragon King and the others from the aura alone. He was tempted to leave via Somersault Cloud, but resisted it. For now, he did not want others to see him use the Somersault Cloud.
A moment"s hesitation, and the Gateway to Fallen Battlefield had trapped them. It swallowed them into another world. Once there, Wu Yu inspected their surroundings. It was a sealed s.p.a.ce, with golden walls everywhere. But the s.p.a.ce itself seemed pretty stable, like that of the sky palaces. It did not seem like a lesser realm of the mortal domain.
Besides, there were many immortal designs here, as if it were the inside of an immortal treasure. But compared to the Tian Que Dragon Palace, Wu Yu was confident that he could break the palace, but the immortal designs and barriers here were probably beyond the abilities of even the strongest immortal kings like Wu Jun. After all, this was Sky Will Dragon King"s treasure.
However, Wu Yu had two ways of leaving immediately.
Firstly, he could use the Somersault Cloud to leap through the void. It would probably get him out. However, this place was different from immortal treasures. It was a sealed world. If Wu Yu leaped out, he might end up in a s.p.a.ce he did not want to be. That posed quite a bit of risk. Besides, he did not want to reveal the Somersault Cloud.
Secondly, he could use the Gateway to the Ancient Demon Realm. No matter where he opened it from, he could reach the Ancient Demon Realm. Although that would mean that when he opened it again, he could only reach Fallen Battlefield. However, that was Wu Yu"s only plan, and then he could find another way to return to the sky palaces besides the Gateway to the Ancient Demon Realm.
Wu Yu chose the second method. He had already dripped his blood to activate the door. However, the Gateway to the Ancient Demon Realm would take some time to fully open, perhaps about a quarter of an hour. He could just delay Tian Que Dragon King a little. After all, Tian Que Dragon King would think that the Fallen Battlefield was the perfect prison.
The last time, Luo Pin had threatened Tian Jian Dragon Lord to buy their freedom. This time, Tian Que Dragon King would not make the same mistake. The moment Wu Yu entered, he saw that Tian Jian Dragon Lord, Aurora Dragon Lord, and Tian Ming Dragon Lord were all in a separate s.p.a.ce, protected by many immortal designs within a golden sphere in Fallen Battlefield. The only ones outside were Wu Yu, Luo Pin, and the 3-Heavens immortal king Tian Que Dragon King!
Of course, he was much stronger than Tian Jian Dragon Lord. With him around, even Tian Jian Dragon Lord would be but a servant to him.
If not for the fact that Tian Que Dragon King had rejected their father"s arrangements, there would probably be many more dragon kings here to deal with Wu Yu. But Tian Que Dragon King clearly wanted to do this himself. He wanted to crush Wu Yu and Luo Pin, and take revenge for the last time. Borrowing his father"s power to exact revenge was not Tian Que Dragon King"s style. That he stood here showed his confidence.
Tian Que Dragon King"s face was solemn as he regarded them. "The last time, I told you that you would one day pay. It"s been decades, but the day has finally come. Unless you can kill me, don"t even think about getting out of Fallen Battlefield."
This place had given him a great boost of confidence. He could actually activate the immortal designs here to boost his fighting strength greatly. He could even imprison Wu Yu for a long time first, and bring them back to Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm for his father to deal with.
This was Sky Will Dragon King"s jail.
Of course, he could wait for none of the above.
"Big brother, take it slow. Don"t kill him instantly, I want to savor my revenge. And the woman. I want to take her today as well. Tian Ming, no objections, I trust!" Tian Jian Dragon Lord spit, his face a haze of spite.
Tian Ming said: "Of course not. Such trash should be used by us brothers together. Forget marriage. I don"t want this broken shoe!"
Aurora Dragon Lord was here as well. She frowned at their exchange, but did not comment. They were the absolute rulers back in the Sky Heart tribe. When had they been bullied like this before? If Wu Yu was not killed today, if Luo Pin did not pay the price today, she too would not be satisfied.
Wu Yu sighed. "I never expected such words to come from such mouths. The grandsons of the great Sky Heart Dragon Emperor himself, but as shameless as mangy mongrels. It opens my eyes to the world, really. Tian Que Dragon King is such a rotten thing. Unbelievable. Unbelievable."
Luo Pin was appalled as well. Fighting and killing was one thing, but Tian Jian Dragon Lord and Tian Ming Dragon Lord had crossed the line into repulsiveness. How could they say such words?
Wu Yu had initially planned to leave. But seeing his own woman insulted like this tempted him to stay.
However, it was still Luo Pin who spoke to him in secret: "Don"t waste time clas.h.i.+ng with them. A real lesson might bring attention to the Chifeng Immortal Lord affair. There will be another day of reckoning."
Wu Yu thought this over. Chifeng Immortal Lord"s matter was still the more important consideration. They were disgusting, and there was not much meaning in teaching them a lesson. After all, they were ultimately backed by the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor, who Wu Yu was in no position to kill.
However, Wu Yu would remember this day. If there was another chance, Wu Yu would slap Tian Jian Dragon Lord and Tian Ming Dragon Lord until their mouths were pulp.
Tian Jian Dragon Lord had lost control, spewing vulgarities and lewd phrases. Words like withered flower, wanton s.l.u.t, and promiscuous were all flung at Luo Pin. He was probably still too affected by his last defeat.
Tian Que Dragon King did not speak, but he had already prepared himself. First, he locked on to Wu Yu. In his hand was the Tian Que Dragon Palace great void immortal treasure! He moved quickly, and Wu Yu"s Gateway to the Ancient Demon Realm still needed some time. He had already transformed into a dragon, and attacked with the power of a 3-Heavens immortal king. It was a force to be reckoned with, and his heavenly rule power was brought to bear!
"Fatal Sword heavenly rule!"
From his fingers, five jets of sword qi came bursting out, a pale white color with terrifying penetrative power. They were aimed straight at Wu Yu"s brow.
