Chapter 295 A Dynamic Duo
That evening, Lyu Liang had a discussion with his companions.
“OK! No problem! I can do that alone! Trust me! If I can finish my task early, perhaps I can come and help you!” After Lyu Liang finished giving the outline of the plan, Nie Qingyun directly jumped up, his eyes shining with excitement.
“Qingyun, your part is very important! But remember, if you can’t beat them, escape immediately! Don’t force yourself! I don’t want to see anyone get injured!” Lyu Liang said seriously. Although Feng Mazi said the plan would work well, Lyu Liang still felt somewhat worried.
“Now we all know what we should do, but the situation is even more dangerous for you than for Qingyun in the beginning. Isn’t there another way to lure the enemies?” Zheng Xuan frowned slightly in concern.
“Don’t worry. It’s not dangerous for me. If things go well, those Men of Sacrifice won’t have any chance to hurt others anymore!” Lyu Liang said a.s.suredly. Then, he turned to Qiao Youliang and said, “Senior Qiao, please lend me Senior Ming’s power. I’ll pay for it!”
“No problem! Just do it! I’ll just charge the rent, and the rest is your own business!” When he heard that, Qiao Youliang cheered up immediately, his eyes twinkling with excitement, “As for me, you need to pay 5% more, so that I can make sure that no one can escape!”
“No problem!” Lyu Liang was used to Qiao Youliang’s materialistic nature by now. Anyway, he could afford the sum!
After the discussion, all the people left secretly and waited for dawn, when they would begin executing the plan!
However, Lyu Liang still stayed in Feng Mazi’s cave residence. When he was alone, he said softly, “Ming, I leave it all to you! I thought of escaping before today, but now, it seems that I can really annihilate all of them!”
“It’s easy for me. Anyway, it’s your choice. How strange it is! You two fought desperately several days ago, but now, you’ve become partners… The world is so wondrous!” Ming sighed slightly, and then, he waved out a golden cloud, “Mushroom, have you decided? It’s 10 thousand years! If this guy should die, you will also be doomed!”
Just then, a vague figure was outlined against the golden cloud. It was the scaled-down version of the horror beast in the Death Sea!
According to Feng Mazi, Lyu Liang and Nie Qingyun were the keys to the entire plan, and Lyu Liang’s task was to draw the “snakes” out!
These “snakes” were precisely the disciples and Men of Sacrifice of some powers, and Lyu Liang would hold them off.
Anyway, with Black’s help, Lyu Liang could escape with ease, as long as there were no special restriction formations like the life-bonded Bounded Domain.
In most cases, although Lyu Liang could get through the restriction formations, he could not bring his companions with him. But this time, Liu Xiaoxue had left the cave residence to gather with Wu Yingzhao, and the clansman of the Yang Family had been entrusted to Feng Mazi. Therefore, he did not need to worry about how to escape anymore.
As for Linglong, White said that, owing to her special const.i.tution, she should go with Lyu Liang. Besides, she was also a great temptation for the enemies, so it was better to keep her around.
After that, Ming also gave him a piece of good news—it had successfully reached an agreement with the giant mushroom! To Lyu Liang’s surprise, the mushroom’s soul would directly infuse with Lyu Liang’s, rather than the divine realm, which meant that the mushroom would be like his Divine Beast. Moreover, it would serve Lyu Liang for 10,000 years!
“During these 10,000 years, if it swallowed enough souls, it could turn into a new being who can adapt to the Power of Law. Although it will be merely at the Master level with much weaker strength at the beginning, it said that, as long as it can enjoy the freedom, it was willing to give up everything, except for life! What do you think? Bet on it?” Lyu Liang could not agree with Ming more.
Therefore, things became easier afterward. With Ming’s help, a golden fog slowly infused into Lyu Liang’s body.
At the same time, a strange, yet formidable Divine Soul vaguely appeared, grumbling, “Boy, during these 10,000 years, you can kill more people, but don’t get killed by others! I still want to live longer!”
Lyu Liang laughed out loud, and said in an ever-confident tone, “It’s time to end all of these! I won’t let go of any of you!”
However, a question, which he had been evading, haunted his mind again, “Did the masked female… have anything to do with… Mu Xiaozi?”
……
The next morning, three figures walked out of the absolute territory of Tianshu Pavilion and entered their respective mines.
Then, the rest of Lyu Liang’s 100-odd slaves began digging again. After a while, they found a faint red glow, following which, a dazzling red beam shot up, and a weird force suddenly swept over the entire s.p.a.ce!
While all the people of the Yang Family scattered, only Lyu Liang continued digging intently. However, before he could fetch the treasure, he was swallowed by a s.p.a.ce gap, which appeared suddenly.
“Aha! What a big troop!” Lyu Liang’s eyes lit up, when he saw what was in front of him!
There were over 40 people, half of them were wearing black, and the other half were wearing diverse clothes. Anyway, they besieged Lyu Liang within a range of 300 meters.
All the black-robed men had desperate looks on their faces, which suggested that their ident.i.ties were experienced Men of Sacrifice.
Although the rest of the people were not Men of Sacrifice, they were all at the Peak of Supreme Master!
“So these are all their forces? Wait! Let them launch the attack first. And I’ll pretend to make a hasty escape!” As Lyu Liang said this, the mushroom in his Divine Soul began roaring in excitement…
However, Lyu Liang still moved first!
But instead of launching attacks, he rushed in the direction that had the least enemies!
“Kill him!” As someone gave the order, all the enemies began attacking Lyu Liang, using their full efforts!
“D*mn it! Mushroom, attack!” Lyu Liang had thought of fooling these people, but he made the wisest choice, when he realized that they were all out to kill him!
At the same time, several screams sounded. As Lyu Liang shook his body, numerous gray clouds floated out and pounced on the enemies!
“This is… impossible! Ah!” When they saw the ma.s.s of gray fog, most of the enemies were instantly discouraged, and revealed shocked and fearful looks. Within a second, they had decided to give up attacking, defend themselves, and escape immediately!
Perhaps the Men of Sacrifice did not know how powerful those gray clouds were, but their experience in the mine also persuaded them to give up resisting!
“This guy can operate this monster! Why?” This was the biggest doubt for all these people, but they had had no time or chance to find out the answer…
Actually, Lyu Liang came here not for mining, but for collecting the gray clouds!
Lyu Liang did not need to put in too much effort, because the mushroom’s soul could directly attract those innumerable gray clouds. Without hesitation, Lyu Liang collected all of them into his cave residence, and planned to use them as his trump card to annihilate the enemies!
With the mushroom’s help, Lyu Liang could remain safely in the mine, even if he confronted an enemy at the Divine Ancestor level!
There were almost one hundred gray clouds, far more than the number of the enemies! No matter how obstinate those Men of Sacrifice were, they had no chance to detonate themselves anymore…
At this moment, each of the enemies was besieged by at least two gray clouds. The entire s.p.a.ce was enveloped by a stifling atmosphere of suppression!
Just then, the golden soul of the mushroom slowly floated out to the nearest Men of Sacrifice. It paused, turned into a b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, and began chewing up the delicious prey in a nauseous way!
The prey at the Peak of Supreme Master, who had not stimulated any move, was crushed to death without even putting up any resistance…
“Please spare us! Please spare us!”
“We were forced to do this! Please spare us!”
“I don’t want to die! Please let me be your life-long slave!”
Totally shocked by the unbelievable scene, all the people, except for the Men of Sacrifice, began begging for their lives!
That a brute should befriend a monster, who had existed for how long, no one even knows… Oh, no, he was evidently the master of the monster! How could a pig subdue a tiger? If their leaders knew about that, would they still partic.i.p.ate in this event…
Seeing that the situation was now under control, Lyu Liang messaged the mushroom, “Please enjoy your meal! I have to go now. When I finish my task, I will come back here!” After saying that, he rushed out directly to the real battlefield…
……
At the same time, in the entire mining area, all the cultivators were shocked by another person!
He was a handsome, proud young man, standing alone at the entrance of the Plain Girl Pavilion with a silver broadsword in his hand. Any person who tried to break out, no matter what cultivation he had, would be defeated by this young man within half an hour!
About 30,000 meters away behind the young man was the branch of the Plain Girl Pavilion. As a violent blast sounded, a huge crack appeared on a blue light screen. After several figures rushed in, the battle began with numerous roars.
“Oh? So fast! It seems that I have to work harder. If my master comes and finds that I am still here, it’ll be too embarra.s.sing!” This young man was Nie Qingyun, who smiled slightly at this moment, “So this is the full strength of the Plain Girl Pavilion? And it ranks among the top 10 in the Nether Big World? Joking! If so, let me end your dreams about resorting to reinforcements!”
……
At the same time, the entire Plain Girl Pavilion was in a panicky state.
At this moment, several Tao Ancestors had gathered together. Except for Fairy Still Water, Ghost-faced Immortal, and several leaders, all of them had terrible expressions on their faces!
“36 people! They were our top forces!” Immortal Tu Long, the leader of Golden Dragon Hall, glared at Fairy Still Water, “You must give me an explanation! If we knew that things would go like this, we would not have taken part in this battle!”
“Humph! I warned you not to underestimate Nie Qingyun! You are too arrogant! And now you want to blame Still Water! Ridiculous!” Ghost-faced Immortal sneered, standing on Fairy Still Water’s side.
“Stop it! Why are we creating strife at this critical moment?” King Lanling, the leader of Lanling Pavilion, said as he looked around, “Where’s the double-headed dhuta? Wasn’t he here the last two times? Where is he now?”
“Leader! The young man rushed in and ripped our Great Defense Formation open! Dozens of people of the first defense have, have all been killed!” A disciple of Plain Girl Pavilion stumbled in, with a horrified look on her face.
Silence! Extreme silence!
All these arrogant powerful figures were totally shocked! At that moment, they began doubting whether it was merely a naive behavior to believe that the Nether Big World was the strongest middle-level world!
“I’m sorry! Golden Dragon Hall is calling it quits! I don’t care about the Spiritual Body and those secret realms now! All I want to do is to stay away from those monsters!” Gritting his teeth, Immortal Tu Long crushed a talisman, which he just summoned, and slowly disappeared.
After that, anyone, who was able to escape, chose to quit the battle. Nie Qingyun’s unconventional strength had become an indelible nightmare for all of them…
After merely half an hour since Immortal Tu Long quit, only two people were left in the Plain Girl Pavilion. However, neither Ghost-faced Immortal nor Fairy Still Water showed any hint of fear.
“Thank you! You’re not only helping me to avoid Milord Kong’s punishment, but also preserving the main forces of Plain Girl Pavilion!” Fairy Still Water cupped her hands at Ghost-faced Immortal.
“Not at all. Now, it’s time to show our loyalty! Still Water, do you trust me?” Ghost-faced Immortal waved his hand and sighed slightly.
“Plain Girl Pavilion will co-exist and co-perish with the Ghost King Sect!” With eyes that lit up, Fairy Still Water said this with determination, which also inspired Ghost-faced Immortal.
“Pa.s.s my order! Don’t block that young man!” As Fairy Still Water’s order resounded through Plain Girl Pavilion, all the disciples, who had lost the courage to defend, sighed with relief, and some of them even escaped directly, before they encountered Nie Qingyun.
Nie Qingyun was stunned, but without hesitation, he directly flew into the main hall. Waving his Dragon-Teeth Dagger, Nie Qingyun was determined to fight to the end.
But to his surprise, Ghost-faced Immortal and Fairy Still Water knelt in front of him, at the same time. Ghost-faced Immortal said, “Ghost Face and Still Water, welcome Milord Shenhuang’s return!”
