Chapter 400: Lu’s Power
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Lord Lu, what, what are you doing?!”
Qi Long was a well-rounded person who knew how to interact with people. He had already connected with the Black Cloud Stockade’s leaders and called them brothers.
At this moment, the leaders of the Black Cloud Stockade were shocked when they saw Qi Long become a dried corpse and the one who attacked was still their lord, Lu.
“You! Do you think there’s no one in my Black Cloud Stockade?!”
The second brother’s eyes were red and bloodshot as he roared and charged forward.
A layer of green qi surrounded the second brother’s body. With a series of cracking sounds, a long spear appeared in his hand and the tip of the spear was pointed at Lu’s glabella.
The moment the long spear was pointed, the entire Black Cloud Stockade dimmed, and only the tip of the spear shone.
Before everyone could react, the tip of the spear was only an inch away from Lu’s glabella.
In the next second, the tip of the spear was about to pierce into Lu’s glabella and crush his brain.
However, this second became extremely long. The fierce killing intent in second brother’s eyes turned into confusion and finally turned into endless fear.
Beads of sweat kept dripping down second brother’s forehead. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva dryly.
“Ha! You think you can make a move on me?” Lu sneered and glanced at second brother.
Second Brother maintained the posture of thrusting out his long spear. He could not move, but his expression and pupils revealed extreme fear.
Second Brother only felt that what looked at him was not a human, but an ice-cold deep pool, an ice mountain that would never melt, a terrifying existence in human skin…
At this moment, among the leaders of the Black Cloud Stockade, two people looked at the Leader and asked for help, “Big Brother! How can you bear to watch this outsider make a move on our brothers!”
When the remaining few people looked at the stockade leader, they seemed to have sensed something. They glanced around to make sure that no one was paying attention to them, then quietly hid themselves and turned around to run.
However, before those few people had run a few steps, their eyeb.a.l.l.s bulged out and they turned their heads back shakily. They opened their mouths but could not make a sound. Gradually, they turned into dried corpses that were no different from Qi Long’s.
The scene changed so quickly that the people from the Black Cloud Stockade were stunned on the spot.
A second ago, they were still looking at Luo Ningyu with lewd eyes, and they had all kinds of fantasies in their hearts.
But now, they had become fish meat on the chopping board. They didn’t even know why they had become like this.
“Leader… of the stronghold…”
“Big Brother, why, Big Brother!”
“You, you are my brother in vain…”
In a series of hoa.r.s.e voices, everyone, including the second brother of the Black Cloud Stockade, turned into dried corpses and fell to the ground.
Everyone’s dark eyes seemed to have endless unwillingness and resentment as they looked directly in the direction of the chief of the Black Cloud Stockade.
The chief of the Black Cloud Stockade, Leng Zhuo, indifferently glanced at the people lying on the ground. He was calling these people brothers yesterday and yet he didn’t have any emotion in his eyes.
It was as if the people who died in front of him were just ants.
Lin Bai glanced at Luo Ningyu. Luo Ningyu nodded slightly with an affirmative look in her eyes.
Leng Zhuo was definitely a character above the devil puppet. He was already the servant of the Si and Lu in front of him.
However, Lin Bai didn’t understand why Lu needed blood essence.
If one wanted to temporarily increase their cultivation, then the blood essence of others wouldn’t work.
If he wanted to rely on the blood essence of others to permanently increase his cultivation, then the cultivation of the leaders of the Black Cloud Stockade would also be of no use.
He would need hundreds of people with similar cultivation levels as the Black Cloud Stockade.
However, Lin Bai did see the streams of blood essence appear in the air and pour into Lu’s body.
Then, what was the reason for Lu’s thirst for blood essence…
“Who are you people and what is your purpose?” Lin Bai asked faintly.
“You don’t have the right to know,” Lu said with an overbearing tone.
Si pondered for a moment and said, “Haven’t you already encountered it before?”
After saying that, Si left Lin Bai with a smile that was filled with evil.
Previously, Si had used the demonic qi of the Wu Mountain to flood his body, but because of Lin Bai and the others, he was eventually devoured by the formation.
Although he was smiling, he was actually trying his best to use his cultivation level to repair the injuries on his body.
The injuries from the spell formation’s backlash couldn’t be compared to other injuries. Some of the injuries even affected his meridians and primordial spirit. It wasn’t something that could be healed in a day.
Si should have already lost the ability to fight. Then, what Luo Ningyu and I need to deal with is this Lu who’s wearing a night suit…
Whoos.h.!.+
Just as Lin Bai was in deep thought…
Lu’s figure flashed on the spot and appeared behind Luo Ningyu in the blink of an eye.
Lu’s eyes were sharp and his body was filled with killing intent. His palm was ruthless and decisive as he slapped towards Luo Ningyu’s back.
This palm contained endless demonic qi. The moment it struck out, it was as if the starry sky had dimmed. Luo Ningyu’s eyes were dazed for a moment.
However, in that instant, this palm was about to land on Luo Ningyu’s back.
Buzz!
A blazing and holy golden light flashed. It stuck onto Luo Ningyu’s back and smashed towards that palm.
“Hmph!”
Lu snorted coldly and forcefully retracted his palm. His feet moved slightly and his figure disappeared once again.
Luo Ningyu felt as if she had been through the gates of h.e.l.l. When she saw that Lin Bai had helped her force Lu back, she heaved a sigh of relief.
“Be careful!”
Lin Bai cried out in alarm. At the same time, the small cauldron and longsword in his hand struck out with a bang.
Luo Ningyu’s expression changed drastically. Who knew that Lu’s attack would fail? After pausing for a moment, he launched another sharp attack.
Lu appeared above Luo Ningyu’s head and struck out with his palm. This palm strike was sinister and vicious, with a tricky angle.
Lu glanced in Lin Bai’s direction and saw that Lin Bai’s attack had already arrived. However, he did not retreat like last time. Instead, he increased the strength of his palm.
Just as Lu’s palm was about to strike down, Luo Ningyu felt something tied around her waist, and her body retreated rapidly to the right.
At the same time, Lu’s palm landed on the ground.
Boom!
The entire Black Cloud Stockade shook. The few buildings closest to them collapsed and sank deep into the ground due to the cracks that spread out from the ground.
“Who is it?!”
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Go and call the Chief!”
“Big Brother, there’s an enemy attack!”
The ordinary bandits of the Black Cloud Stockade woke up from their dreams. They were like flies in the stronghold until they saw Leng Zhuo and the others standing at the top.
…
Luo Ningyu’s face was covered in a thin layer of cold sweat. A strand of her hair stuck to her face and a few drops of sweat on her white neck. She looked at Lin Bai gratefully.
Lin Bai nodded slightly.
“Hey, I didn’t expect that you could force Lu to retreat.” Si smiled meaningfully. “However, it’s all in vain.”
Lin Bai looked at Lu, who was already beside Si. Lu was also looking at him.
Lu’s eyes were very strange. They were filled with repression, murderous intent, rage, calmness, and all kinds of complicated emotions…
