Chapter 147: Young Man, Is Your Surname Lu?
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Lu Li was dumbstruck, and so was Hunchback Tian who was at the distance. He suck into complete despair when he saw the hand. His old, dim eyes blinked as some words came out of his mouth, "They really are the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race."
"Boom!"
The hill imploded. A huge body burst out from the hill, but it didn’t jump up. Instead, it just stood there, as tall as the hill.
Rocks rolled off the hill, causing dirt to fly around. Lu Li and the remaining Green Dwarf fell from the hill. When Lu Li got up, he saw the giant in the hill. A trace of terror rose from the depth of his soul, as if it was a Fifth or Sixth Rank Xuan Beast that he was faced with.
That was a real giant. He was more than 30 feet tall, with arms thicker than Lu Li’s body. He was covered in golden skin, and his pupils were golden as well. There was no hair on his head, and all in all, he looked like a man casted in gold.
The giant was not wearing any shirts, only a short hide skirt around his waist. He didn’t release any powerful qi or energy, however, his hill-like body could already struck awe and make people feel oppressed.
The Earth Grade Xuan Artifact was broken into pieces by the giant in his hand. Just how much strength did the giant possess? Lu Li could not imagine. If it was him that were in the hand of the giant? Maybe he would have already turned into a muddy flesh…
The girl was standing on the giant’s shoulder, looking at Lu Li mockingly. The four young women and Hunchback Tian stopped their fight. The four also looked at Lu Li and Hunchback Tian with ridicule.
"Dummy, kill them for me!"
While the girl stood on the giant’s should, she pointed to Lu Li and Hunchback Tian and ordered. Hunchback Tian hurriedly shouted, "Wait!"
The girl waved her hand and the giant stopped moving. She indifferently said, "What? Old hunchback man, are you afraid?"
"You are so damn good master, how can I not be afraid?"
Hunchback Tian helplessly sighed and said, "The Cyan Phoenix Race is said to be the race with the fastest speed in the Central Plains, and the Mammoth Race with the strongest strength. We are only inviting humiliation based on our power. We yield. No more fighting!"
"Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race?"
Lu Li had never heard about these two races before. However, since they were the ones with the fastest speed and the strongest strength, they must be horrifying.
He already had a taste of a giant’s strength.
"Hum!"
The girl lifted her head with arrogance and said, "You old man with a hunchback know something. Dummy, get them and bring them back. As for that green dwarf-like thing, just kill it."
"Boom!"
The giant flew out and landed on the ground like a hill. His huge leg kicked at the remaining Green Dwarf, not giving it the chance to dodge. It was smashed away by that huge leg and died.
"Swish~"
Then the giant bent down, reaching his hands to Lu Li and Hunchback Tian with a speed as fast as lightning. Hunchback Tian didn’t resist. Lu Li tried but failed. He was grabbed by the giant in an instant.
"Hiss, hiss~"
Even though the giant didn’t seem to put any force in his hand, Lu Li still felt like all the bones in his body were crushed. He could not breathe and his face was red. The girl on the shoulder of the golden giant looked at Lu Li and said, "Dummy, don’t kill him. My grandpa needs to interrogate information out of him later."
The golden giant nodded, then his grasp loosened a bit. The girl looked towards the four young women and said, "Get up here. Let’s go back to the clan!"
"Yes, Princess Xi!"
The four young women saluted her with respect. They kicked backwards with one leg and flew to the shoulders of the golden giant like a breeze. The giant stepped forward with his huge legs and rushed on.
"Bang, bang, bang~"
With every step of the golden giant, the ground would shake, and a muffled sound would come out. His speed was fast. Even though there was no sign of Xuan Energy glistening, not to mention it looked like he was only relying on his physical strength, his legs were long. Every time he stepped forward, he could cross dozens of feet…
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian were in his hands. They could not move, and neither of them dared to resist. All they did was to pray in secret.
Lu Li just randomly attacked a white stone and he was teleported to a small word, where indigenous residents were so powerful. He felt like swearing and cursing about how bad his luck was.
If he died here, who would take care of Little White that was on the Dragon Elephant Mountain? How about Lu Ling who was so far away at the Cyan Plains? And what about his parents underneath the Ice Abyss?
On the thought of this, Lu Li was having mixed feelings. He could not put his emotions to words. Hunchback Tian, on the other hand, seemed to resign himself to destiny, looking like he was ready for his death.
The golden giant rushed on and crossed mountains and rivers. Three hours later, he got near a big lake and stopped.
Lu Li was dispirited. Two hours ago, the time of using his Bloodline Skill was up. Even though he had rested for some time, he was still lifeless.
At this moment, he forcefully displayed vigor. Lu Ling once said that he could not relinquish even if he knew he was going to die. He looked around, observing and trying to find a chance to get out.
The golden giant was standing on the peak of a big mountain, and there was a large lake lying in the distance. Lu Li saw many wooden attics built at the foot of the mountain by the lake. There must be several thousand of the attics by the looks of it. Surrounding the attics were verdant trees. The scenery of the clan was pretty, looking like a land of idyllic beauty.
"Dummy, go down there!" the girl shouted. The golden giant ran towards the clan in strides. The muffled sound of his footsteps alarmed many people in the clan, and many came out of their attics to see.
"Princess Xi has come back from her hunting?"
"Eh? Why there are two men in Dummy’s hands? They are from the outside? We have outlanders here?"
"Go and report to our leader."
The clan was filled with noises, and many men rushed over in a blur. They stood on the open land outside of the clan and looked up and down at Lu Li and Hunchback Tian with curiosity.
Lu Li touched his nose in embarrassment. This feeling was not good. It was as if he was some bizarre Xuan Beast surrounded and watched by a group of men. For him, the indigenous residents were of alien races, but for them, he was the alien race.
The girl that was called "Princess Xi" got down from the giant’s shoulder. She pointed at Lu Li and Hunchback Tian and said, "These are my spoils. How about we cook them later?"
A group of Cyan Phoenix Race males and females were confused when they heard this. Then they burst into a guffaw. Many offered suggestions.
"Since Princess Xi wants to cook them, how about we boil them? But we must cook them well so they can taste better."
"I think eating them raw is better. We can get some sauce and dip them in the sauce."
"No, no, we should roast them. We can get an iron spike and stick it in from their heads. We can sprinkle them with some cumin and sesame oil. We must roast them till their skin is crisp and their flesh is tender. That will be the best!"
"I think we can fry them…"
Lu Li and Hunchback Tian’s fine hairs were standing on end when they heard them. The Cyan Phoenix Race ate people? They were going to be roasted? Or eaten raw?
Thinking that he was going to become a goat, grilled above fire, Lu Li was ready to swear and curse inside again…
Rustle, rustle, rustle~
Sounds of footsteps came out from the clan, then a brown-haired old man walked out among some others.
One look and Hunchback Tian had lost his hope. He could feel qi and energy of the five men at the front. It was so powerful that Hunchback Tian felt like he would not be a match for them. This was a feeling that only arose when he was faced with powerful warriors of the Eternal Realm.
The brown-haired old man walked out with others. He looked at the golden giant and said, "Put them down. Go back, Dummy."
The golden giant threw Lu Li and Hunchback Tian on the ground. Then he turned around and started running towards the mountains. Lu Li and Hunchback Tian crawled up, then they stood up, not moving an inch. Lu Li, however, secretly readied his Xuan Energy. He planned to fight till his last breath.
"Um?"
The brown-haired old man glanced at Lu Li, and he was immediately surprised when he saw the animal tooth pendant on Lu Li’s neck. The old man took a closer look, then light suddenly shone brightly in his eyes. His mouth twitched and he said with a trembling voice, "Young man, is there a silver dragon pattern on your back?"
Lu Li crawled up as soon as he was thrown to the ground, so the old man did not see the silver dragon mark on his back. Lu Li answered with confusion, "There is one. What about it?"
The old man once again quivered. This time, not only his mouth twitched, but his entire body. He looked at Lu Li with such ardent passion as if he was a naked beauty.
The old man took a deep breath and asked again, "Young man, is your surname… Lu?"
