"Okay, say no more. We must deal with the Thousand-island Lake first. We will talk about Lu Li in the future."
Yu Huashen uttered those words. It was too late to send people to the Wu Ling County now. There was no Teleportation Formation in the Wu Ling County since it was just a county, and to teleport to nearby region cities wouldn’t help.
Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang were on their way to the Yu Emperor City. Bai Xi and the others must be following them. This was the most troublesome matter as far as Yu Huashen was concerned.
Yu Lun felt otherwise. He said, "Put your mind at ease, Family Patriarch. I swear on my life that Bai Xi will not have the guts to fight us. Also, Lady Zi Lian is here so how can Bai Xi resort to rash actions?"
"Yes…"
Somehow, Yu Huashen was less worried. Zi Lian was here together with Zi Huanyu and another patriarch. Bai Xi would not dare to misbehave in the Yu Emperor City unless he wanted to breach the agreement reached between the three Royal Families.
They waited quietly in the hall, waiting for message from the Wu Ling County and for Bai Qiuxue and the other’s arrival.
Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang suddenly stopped in the middle of the night. They paused in a county outside of the Yu Emperor City, and went to a tavern as if they were ready to spend the night there.
Yu Huashen, however, became more concerned upon receiving the news. He was afraid to go to sleep, so were the group of patriarchs. They were being vigilant. The city and its surrounding areas were filled with scouts in case Bai XI and the others would launch a secret attack.
Yu Lun left the fortress on his own, nowhere to be found. He seemed to be unwilling to accept that the perfect scheme of his failed and he wanted to find a way to make it up.
…
The Wu Ling County was peaceful as well. Lu Li had waited for a whole night but nothing happened. It seemed the powerful warrior that had been following him around already left and was not planning to help him.
Lu Li didn’t know what to do. Clearly, there were Fate Wheel Realm warriors lurking around the Di Long Tribe. How could he just make his way forward and send himself to death? The longer he waited, the more dangerous he would be. So, to wait here was not ideal either.
Hunchback Tian never returned. Lu Li could not tell whether something had happened to him or there simply was no worthy information. Lu Li kept on staying in the cave. One day seemed as long as a year. Every second of every minute was torture.
"Boom!"
In the darkest moment before dawn, there came a muffled noise from the east of the Di Long Tribe. The ground was shaking. Lu Li’s muscles contracted and he dashed out from the cave like a sword.
"Has the mysterious powerful warrior finally made his move?"
Lu Li nervously looked towards the east but was afraid to go down the mountain. He waited for the return of Hunchback Tian with his eyes wide open.
"Swish~"
Not too long afterwards, a man rushed up the mountain. Lu Li held his breath and looked around. After making sure that the Red Teeth Rats were not attacking, he was relieved. It must be Hunchback Tian.
Certainly, it was him. He said to Lu Li with excitement, "Master, there are people fighting on the west side that have attracted all the Fate Wheel Realm warriors. The other warriors lurking around should be going over soon as well. We can go to the Di Long Tribe now."
"Go!"
The ring on Lu Li’s hand flickered as he took out his Mighty Heaven Halberd. The halberd was smashed away by Yu Feijia under the Cliff of Purgatory the other day, but it was found by the Bai Family later and returned to him. Carrying the halberd in his hand, Lu Li rushed towards the Di Long Tribe like a ferocious tiger.
The Fate Wheel Realm warriors being attracted to other places meant there wouldn’t be too many of them in the Di Long Tribe. Lu Li and Hunchback Tian should be able to deal with the ones left there. Since the mysterious man was helping, Lu Li would have put the good opportunity to waste if he didn’t grab it.
Lu Li was so familiar with the surrounding areas of the Di Long Tribe. Taking Little White with him, he dashed down the White Crow Mountain like a streak of wind then rushed into another small mountain.
"Who is there?"
It was too dark to see clearly. A scout hiding in the small mountain was now nervously looking towards the west. Upon hearing the noise coming from down the mountain, he shouted in a deep voice.
Without saying anything, Lu Li ran towards this man. In just a few breaths, he reach the man and swung his Mighty Heaven Halberd—Lu Li smashed at the man forcefully.
"Courting death!"
The scout was at the later stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, one of the best scouts of the Yu Family. Seeing that it was Lu Li, he engaged in the fight immediately without wasting time on talking. A saber showed up in his hand and he hacked at Lu Li.
"Buzzing~"
A streak of white light came off from Lu Li and shadows after shadows appeared. Using the Apparition Xuan Skill, seven or eight shadows emerged. It was hard to see in such a dim night, and the scout thought he had seen ghosts with all those identical black shadows in front of him. Swinging his saber around, he hacked at all directions randomly.
"Bang!"
Lu Li found a window of opportunity and smacked at the back of the man’s head. The Mighty Heaven Halberd reduced the man’s head into a smashed watermelon. Lu Li didn’t even have to resort to his Bloodline Skill now in fighting against warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm.
"Little White, go explore the way and find any scouts in hiding."
Lu Li shouted to Little White in a deep voice and pressed forward. Soon, a muffled sound came from another side of the mountain when Hunchback Tian killed another scout.
There were only two scouts in this small mountain. Hunchback Tian rushed over; he pointed at the two small mountains ahead of them and said, "There is one scout in each of the mountains over there. Master, how about we kill one each?"
"No problem!"
Lu Li nodded and sneaked his way towards the mountain on the left. Little White had gone downhill for a while now and it dashed into the mountain on the left in a white blur.
"Xuan Beasts? Get out of my way!"
From the mountain on the left came a shout in a low voice. Lu Li sped up as he was worried about Little White. He continued forward like a ghost.
"Swish~"
Little White ran back. Lu Li carried his Mighty Heaven Halberd and rushed on. He caught eyes with a scout hiding inside a bush.
"Who is there? Get lost!"
The scout was startled for a bit and then he shouted. Without saying anything, Lu Li released his Apparition Xuan Skill. Many shadows of him rushed forward. When the scout made a move, Lu Li quickly dodged to the left, circled around the man so that the scout was surrounded by shadows…
"Bang!"
A fight like this was not much fun. The scout was freaked out by the shadows so his attacks were random. Lu Li killed the man with one swing of his Mighty Heaven Halberd.
Going forward and he would reach the Di Long Tribe. After Hunchback Tian caught up, Lu Li went towards the mountain in the east instead of going towards the Di Long Tribe. His grandpa’s tomb was in a small mountain in the east which was the burial ground for the Di Long Tribe.
"Master, I will go upfront to see if there are powerful warriors hiding."
Hunchback Tian left first. Lu Li followed him with a slower speed. From the east, there started to show a dim light. Day was breaking. The day was chilly.
Lu Li’s expressions were colder than the day. By the time he reached the foot of the mountain, he saw a big mess on the mountain side. The tombs of Di Long Tribe were destroyed.
"Bang, bang~"
From half way up the mountain, there came a noise of explosion. Hunchback Tian was fighting the enemies. Lu Li could faintly see more than a dozen men coming at Hunchback Tian.
"No warrior of the Fate Wheel Realm?"
Lu Li was relieve seeing no Fate Wheel Realm warrior around. So all those warriors were lured away by that mysterious powerful warrior.
"Charge!"
Lu Li rushed on, his eyes gradually turning red. Soon, he had arrived at the battlefield. He had clearly seen the graveyard of the Di Long Tribe, and at that moment, his eyes grew completely red.
All the tombs were dug out, all the bone were scattered around, and all the coffins were smashed everywhere. Many bones were broken on purpose. Lu Li saw his grandpa’s tombstone was cut into pieces, and the bones around his tomb were cracked. Clearly, somebody had deliberately done this.
"Die—"
Lu Li’s killing intent was surging. He looked towards the more than a dozen warriors of the Soul Pond Realm and shouted in anger, "Hunchback Tian, go. I will kill these men myself. I will hack them into pieces!"
