Lu Li, Ming Yu and Yu Huashen were already more than 300 miles away from the Mountain City. They had left early. Too bad that Yu Huashen and Ming Yu were not fast enough. Song He and Song Qiao were catching up.Yu Huashen threw Lu Li towards Ming Yu. Red light glared in Yu Huashen’s eyes as he shouted, "Ming Yu, go with Young Master. I will try to stall them for a moment."
Yu Huashen was quite powerful in his defense. When he combined his Sparks Profound Meaning with his Bloodline Skill, his defensive power was stronger than Ming Yu’s. If Ming Yu were to stay behind to stall, he wouldn’t last long.
Without any ado, Ming Yu rushed on with Lu Li. Lu Li looked at Song He and Song Qiao rus.h.i.+ng over from the distance and shouted, "Song He, if you dare to touch my guys, I will destroy your entire family in the future."
"Ha, ha, ha, if you wish to destroy the Song Family, you will have to survive today."
Song He laughed out loud, not worrying about Lu Li’s words a bit. Seeing that the Bloodline mark on Yu Huashen’s neck glowed, Song He released his Bloodline Skill as well, so did Song Qiao.
"Catching fire!"
Yu Huashen shouted. b.a.l.l.s of flames danced around and dashed towards Song He and Song Qiao from all directions.
Song He sneered. He moved and a line of shadows appeared while he sped up. Not even Yu Huashen could tell which one was real. By the time Yu Huashen sent out his psychic power, Song He had already went past him and dashed towards Ming Yu and Lu Li.
"Song Qiao, deal with this guy."
Song He said from the distance. He never considered about fighting Yu Huashen. Today, he was here to kill Lu Li and take Little White and the Coffin of the Dragon King. Killing all the others were not as important. Song He would not waste time on Yu Huashen.
Song He"s Body Art was similar to Lu Li"s Apparition. There were shadows of Song He everywhere, but those of Song He"s were more like phantoms while Lu Li"s were his clones. Song He was just fast enough that people were having illusions.
"Stop!"
Yu Huashen was scared. Ming Yu was only at the initial stage of the n.o.ble Lord Realm. Once he was caught up, both Lu Li and he would be killed. Yu Huashen went after Song He and released dragons of flames towards Song He.
"Ha, ha, you are too slow!"
Song He"s mocking smile came from the distance. Once again, Song He sped up and there were illusions of him everywhere again. Yu Huashen"s dragons of flames. .h.i.t only at those phantoms. He could not catch up with Song He.
"It is me you should be dealing with."
Song Qiao sneered. He released his Bloodline Skill. Surprisingly, the twigs on the trees below them suddenly started growing and crawling up to the sky, trapping Yu Huashen in.
"Burning sky!"
Yu Huashen roared in anger. b.a.l.l.s of flames rushed out from his Bloodline mark and integrated with his Bead of Life and then rushed on to all directions, changing into b.a.l.l.s of blue flames. The twigs that were growing up were on fire.
Yu Huashen rushed out. However, more vines came at him like tens of thousands of vipers and he was entangled again...
"It"s over!"
Song Family"s Bloodline Skill were too difficult to deal with. Song Qiao was at the later stage of the n.o.ble Lord Realm and he was quite able in combats. Yu Huashen could barely escape, let alone kill Song Qiao. Song He was on his way to Lu Li now. Could Lu Li and Ming Yu survive the attack of a warrior at the later stage of n.o.ble Lord Realm?
...
"Whoosh~"
Lu Li and Ming Yu had only covered more than six miles when they heard a noise from behind them. Lu Li turned back, only to see a sky full of phantom shadows. Song He had caught up with them.
"Phantoms? Apparition?"
Lu Li blinked his eyes in confusion. There were phantoms of Song He all over the place, quite similar to Apparition Skill.
Ming Yu soon located where Song He really was with psychic power. He could tell that this was different from Apparition. Those phantoms were just there because of Song He"s speed was too fast.
Ming Yu had no other choice but to fight a desperate fight now that their enemy was here. He threw Lu Li out and shouted, "Young Master, run. I will stall him for a moment!"
Lu Li was thrown into a mountain more than 300 feet away. Ming Yu drew his long sword he carried at his back, released his Bead of Life and shouted, "Force, contain!"
Winds and clouds moved as a surge of power from s.p.a.ce came down and contained Song He. Song He slowed down at once. Ming Yu waved his sword, shooting out rays of silver sword light that were cutting at Song He directly through the s.p.a.ce.
"Fluff!"
Song He sneered. With a glow from the purple Bloodline mark on his neck, vines shot out from his body. Those vines intertwined with each other and formed a huge round s.h.i.+eld in front of Song He.
"Bang, bang, bang~"
All the rays of sword light hit at the vine s.h.i.+eld and broke many of the vines, but there were dozens of layers of vines and the sword light vanished after only several layers of vines were broken.
"Move—"
Song He smashed at the s.p.a.ce with some vines. Ming Yu had contained the s.p.a.ce with Force but the containment collapsed right away. Song He moved pa.s.sed Ming Yu, trying to get to Lu Li.
"Stop!"
How could Ming Yu just let Song He go like this? He once again released Force and shot out several rays of sword light. This time, there were some golden glow to the sword light that made the rays of sword light sharper.
Ming Yu had just learned a Xuan Skill which could make his attacks more powerful by adding some golden energy to the sword light. But he hadn"t mastered it yet so he couldn"t release it at the beginning.
"Get lost!"
Song He once again slowed down. He was enraged. He first released a s.h.i.+eld made of vines to block Ming Yu"s sword light and then weaved some vines into a long whip.
"Swish~"
The dragon tail like whip slid through the sky, breaking Ming Yu"s Force and then smas.h.i.+ng at Ming Yu forcefully.
"Bang!"
The whip moved so quickly, glistening in purple and green, which gave it an unspeakable power. The whip hit at Ming Yu right away.
The Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact Ming Yu was wearing was torn apart. He was smashed into a mountain, causing the mountain to tremble and rubbles rolling down from it.
"Whoosh~"
Leaving Ming Yu behind, Song He rushed on towards Lu Li in a horrible speed again, producing more phantoms. However, he had just begun to move when another surge of power from the heaven came down on him.
Ming Yu flew out from the small mountain. He was covered in blood but his eyes shone in determination as if he was trying to tell Song He that—if he wanted to kill Lu Li, then he must kill Ming Yu first.
Ming Yu kept his eyes locked on Song He but he scanned past him with his psychic power, trying to see how far Lu Li was gone for.
To his surprise, he realized that Lu Li didn"t run at all. Lu Li was in a small mountain just several hundreds of feet away from him. Lu Li seemed to be observing the fight in a silly manner...
Ming Yu looked towards Lu Li"s direction and yelled, "Young Master, what are you doing? Run!"
There were so many people trying to stop the enemies just so that Lu Li could run and that they could buy enough time for warriors from the Palace of Aries to arrive. How could Lu Li stood there so stupidly?
"Ha, ha, ha, ha!"
Song He mockingly laughed. Lu Li was merely a warrior of the Soul Pond Realm. Even if he were to run away, how far could he go? Song He thought that Lu Li was terrified seeing that Lu Li was standing in the mountain with confusion.
"Since you want to die, I will send you to h.e.l.l first and I will send your Young Master over to keep you company!"
Song He threw a glance at Lu Li. The killing intent grew stronger. Ming Yu"s Force bugged him. Since Ming Yu wanted to die, then so be it.
