In the barren wild, a young man carrying a saber on his back was marching on. His footsteps were light. Every time he jumped, he could leap onto the peak of a hill and then hop off.
It had been nearly 10 days since Lu Li left the base camp of the Barbarian Race. Rui the Iron had commanded that no barbarian was allowed to leave the base camp. Lu Li naturally would not send himself in.
In the base camp of the Barbarian Race, Lu Li"s abilities would be diminished. He could send Little White in. However, what if Little White"s speed and defense were impeded as well? He was afraid to take such a risk.
Lu Li wandered on to find more alien races to kill. He had been marching toward the north where the base camp of the Feather Race was located. Theoretically speaking, there should be large number of the Feather Race over there.
During the past 10 days, Lu Li ran into many alien races, including the Feather Race, Asmodians and the Voodoo Race. He killed every one of them. Now when Lu Li encountered the Voodoo Race, he didn"t even have to take Toxin Protection Pellets. He could launch soul attacks from distance and kill them with Xuan Energy.
The most terrifying means of the Voodoo Race were the toxins and bewitched insects. Toxins would require time to spread out and the insects could be stopped by Little White. The Voodoo Race was not strong in defense. Lu Li could kill them easily after releasing some Xuan Energy.
The number of alien race warriors had been decreasing significantly, which was not surprising. Lu Li had been killing many on his own and there were other human warriors as well.
The four alien races must have closed off their entrances to the small world. They would not send in any more reinforcements. Those that did come were all killed.
There were bodies of the alien races everywhere. Some human bodies could be seen as well. Sometimes there would be a small hill of corpses, including both humans and alien races.
The small battlefield was a cruel place. Whenever humans and alien races met together, life-and-death struggles would break out. Lives were fragile here.
The hatred between the four alien races and humans were deeply rooted blood feud which was impossible to be resolved. The hatred grew stronger with each killing…
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Lu Li met some more Asmodians after marching on for several hours. He killed them all. He loathed the Asmodians the most as they were ugly-looking and their means were cruel and sinister. They would either sneak underground or suddenly attack from midair. They not only used toxic matters but also put poisons on their weapons. Lu Li even met one that had learned a low level Profound Meaning of dark and evil properties…
Moving on, Lu Li continued to harvest lives. After several hours, he found a small river where he could have a rest. He took a bath, had some clean water and food before he began to cultivate to recharge his Xuan Energy and strength.
"Eh?"
From the distance came a subtle sound. Lu Li scanned over instantly with his strong psychic power. He noticed a human who was hiding behind a hill and looking toward Lu Li.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
This man sensed Lu Li"s psychic power. The warrior was startled and ran off like a spooked mouse.
"Hmm!"
Lu Li wouldn"t mind if it were some normally behaving human warriors. But this person was sneaking around and hiding. Clearly, he had ill intentions.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Lu Li rushed on in a blur. He jumped up to midair and took out his Fate Wheel, das.h.i.+ng forward in a fast speed.
When Lu Li was at the top of his speed, he could be faster than a warrior at the initial stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. That person was just some average n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior. How could he get away from Lu Li?
In the time for only a dozen breaths, Lu Li had caught up with him. Without wasting his time, Lu Li released soul attacks which rendered this man still. Lu Li unsheathed his saber from his back and pressed against this man"s neck.
Lu Li poured Xuan Energy into the divine weapon of Dragon King. The saber was cold. Needless to say, if Lu Li so much as added some strength, this man would be beheaded.
Lu Li stopped his soul attacks. This man felt weak at his knees when he saw the cold saber on his neck. He knelt down and said with fear, "Young Master Lu, show mercy, please. I don"t mean to pry on you. I, I am only pa.s.sing by."
Lu Li would not believe lies like this. In this small world, anyone acting alone would be practically courting death. Usually, several people would team up together to hunt for alien races. Also, this particular man was sneaking around and wanted to run as soon as he was found. Clearly, he was up to something.
"Whoosh~"
Lu Li moved his saber lightly against this man"s scalp and cut off some of his hair. Then Lu Li pressed his saber against the man"s neck again.
"Clank, clank~"
The man"s teeth were clinking together. He hurried to say, "Young Master Lu, forgive me. Show mercy!"
Lu Li snorted after a moment and said, "You will answer my questions. If you tell me a lie, I will cut off your ears. Two lies, your nose and three lies, you lose your head."
That man nodded. He was too afraid to breathe. Cold sweat ran down his forehead.
Lu Li asked emotionlessly, "Name and your family!"
That person answered, "Chen Chen, from the Chen Family from the southwest Central Plains. Well…we are a sixth rank family affiliated to the Samsara Palace."
"Samsara Palace?" Lu Li grinned a meaningful grin. The image of a particularly beautiful woman sprang to his mind.
Staring into Chen Chen"s eyes, Lu Li went on, "Now when I ask you something, don"t think and answer me as fast as you can or I will cut off your ear now."
Chen Chen nodded. Lu Li asked, "Age!"
"24!"
"Married?"
"Yes!"
"How many has the Chen Family sent in here?"
"Four!"
"How many died?"
"Two!"
"Did Ji Mengtian send you here to look for me?"
"Yes…no!"
Lu Li had been playing a game which had got him the answer right away. Chen Chen was sacred pale. After a pause, he looked at Lu Li with a bitter simile and said, "Young Master Lu, we are insignificant warriors. What is going on between you and Young Lady Ji has nothing to do with us. You must understand that compared to the Samsara Place, the Chen Family is just some minor family. We cannot afford to offend the Samsara Palace. You are a generous man. Please show mercy to me."
Lu Li nodded and said coldly, "I will not force you into a pickle. Bring me to Ji Mengtian and you can leave when we are near. I promise that I will not say you have led the way."
Chen Chen pulled a long face. Shaking his head, he said, "But…I don"t know where Lady Ji is."
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Lu Li moved his saber to Chen Chen"s nose. Chen Chen shuddered with fear. If Lu Li"s saber was any closer, he would have lost his nose.
Lu Li glared at Chen Chen and said, "I don"t like to waste my time and don"t insult my intelligence. Just tell me, will you show me to her or not?"
"Yes!"
Chen Chen made up his mind. After some thoughts, he added, "Lady Ji, Young Master Lu Suan and Lu Ni, Yang Xuan and Lady Die Feiyu are all hiding in an underground cave. There are others from our side guarding outside the cave. So, I can only bring you to a place 30 miles from it."
"Underground cave?"
Lu Li snorted. No wonder he could not find them after such a long time. They had been hiding!
"Ji Mengtian, Lu Suan, Lu Ni, Yang Xuan and Die Feiyu, they are all there!"
A glint of killing intent flashed through Lu Li"s eyes. This bunch of people were together and hiding from him. Clearly, they felt guilty. They must have all played a role in setting Lu Li up. He could take the chance and capture them all.
"Let"s go. Show me there!"
Lu Li put away his saber and kicked Chen Chen a way. Lu Li didn"t even care about this warrior at the middle stage of the n.o.ble Lord Realm. Killing Chen Chen would be as easy as winking for Lu Li.
"Whoosh~"
Chen Chen rushed on in bitterness while Lu Li followed him casually. They hopped on and soon disappeared into the distant mountain range.
