Chapter 276: Lu Li is Here
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
No miracle!
Three days had passed and yet there was no news from the Cyan Plains. Massacre at the Thousand-island Lake was still ongoing. More than half of Thousand-island Lake’s territory and Fourth-rank Islands was lost and more than millions of men were either dead or injured.
Fortunately, the allied armies were tired and they were done with venting their anger. Leaders of the armies were afraid that by killing too many, misfortune would fall on them so they started to restrain their men.
Even so, with the fall of every city, the lands were turned into burnt dust everywhere the armies passed. All the wealth, treasures, Xuan Crystals and even herbs in the farmlands were looted. Women that were not so pretty were lucky, but not those ones that were beautiful…
The God-down City also received some armies but they were all killed by Ye Xiao who was sent by Lu Li after he got the news from Pei An’s scouts.
Lu Li was wrestling with himself inside. Pei An had been sending back continuous information that the Heaven Prison City had fallen, warriors on the Bai Emperor Mountain were still trying, and the protection formation was standing strong. The seven or eight hundred warriors had been attacking at the formation for three whole days but it remained unshakable. That being said, the colors of the formation died down. Clearly, the energy it contained was depleted so it might collapse after a few days.
Three days ago, Lu Li asked Ye Cha to go back to the small world but the other three patriarchs were still in closed-door cultivation. Naturally, Lu Li hadn’t taken any moves.
He wouldn’t unless he was 80% sure that he could succeed. It was unfair for Ye Cha and Ming Yu if they were sent to death just because they had to save someone for Lu Li.
Time passed on and another two days were gone. News from the Bai Emperor Mountain said that the glare of the formation was dying down and it could be cracked open at any minute now.
Lu Li was on pins and needles. He paced up and down in the mansion at the God-down City, waiting for a miracle to appear or for the news that the Bai Emperor Mountain had fallen and that everyone was killed.
At dusk!
There came four black shadows from above the God-down City. They flew across the plaza and rushed into the hall Lu Li was in.
Ming Yu and Yu Huashen who were standing behind Lu Li immediately put their guards up. On the other hand, Ye Cha laughed out loud and said, “Good, very good, you have all succeeded.”
The four people were in sack clothes and their blurry faces became clearer and clearer. They stood in front of Lu Li, bowed to him and said, “Young Master!”
“Three more warriors of the Noble Lord Realm!”
Ming Yu and Yu Huashen looked at each other, shocked. They could tell that one of the four was Ye Xiao, but they were very unfamiliar to the other three.
“Nice, well done!”
Lu Li was overjoyed. The patriarchs of the Cyan Phoenix Race didn’t let his Rising Dragon Grasses go to waste and they had all reached the Noble Lord Realm. Now, Lu Li had seven Noble Lord Realm warriors at his sides.
He turned to Yu Huashen at once and asked, “Yu Huashen, do you think we can go to the Bai Emperor Mountain now? I only wish to save Bai Xiashuang and Bai Qiuxue. They are my friends!”
Yu Huashen deliberated about it in silence. After a while, he replied, “If you want to save the Bai Family, I will say it is difficult. Du Zheng is very likely to make a move and we still don’t stand a chance to win. But if you only want to save two people, I think we have a good chance of succeeding. Du Zheng must have his own concerns. Also…Young Master, if you reveal your identity, then it is absolutely fine for us to save them.”
“I cannot do that!”
Lu Li said with certainty. He looked at Ye Cha and asked, “Clan Leader Ye, can you deal with a warrior at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm? Du Zheng should know a Fifth or Sixth-rank Profound Meaning.”
Ye Cha nodded after a moment of silence and said, “Young Master, if you really want to it, it will be okay. I can deal with him for a while. At least… he cannot kill me.”
“Okay!”
Lu Li became more confident. Ye Chan could stall Du Zheng and he had another six warriors of the Noble Lord Realm to help him. They could defeat Du Heng, Zi Huanyu and the other two.
Lu Li shouted, “Pei An, get your ass in here!”
Pei An rushed in. Lu Li ordered, “Activate the teleportation Formation. We will go to the Heaven Prison City. Also, all of you, move to the Blood Evil Island. If there are enemies and you cannot beat them, go to hide. Wait for me to come back.”
“Yes!”
Pei An would listen to any orders given by Lu Li now. Lu Li waved his hand and said, “Go, let’s go to the Heaven Prison City.”
Ming Yu asked in hesitation, “Young Master, do you… have to go? How about we make it right for you?”
“No!” Yu Huashen responded, “Young Master must go. At the most critical time, he may be able to stop Du Zheng.”
Ming Yu said no more. Lu Li had already rushed out. Pei An asked warriors to reopen the Teleportation Formation and Lu Li and the others rushed in.
…
“Boom, bang, boom~”
Light was glaring high above the Bai Emperor Mountain as if fireworks were in blossom at all times. It was almost after dark. Light of the explosion stood out in the sky and people at the Heaven Prison City could see it clearly.
The tens of thousands of warriors all unsheathed their weapons and released Xuan Energy. They were ready to run to all directions as soon as the formation was cracked open and kill warriors from the allied armies to go to hell with them.
The Bai Family only had a few warriors of the Eternal Realm and the Fate Wheel Realm. All of them had released their Fate Wheels. Many of the warriors were at advanced ages so they didn’t want to wait for their death in the small world. They wanted to die with the Bai Emperor Mountain.
The mountain protection formation was now only as thin as a piece of paper. It stopped giving out seven-colored light. As the light dimmed down, the formation could be cracked open at any minute now.
There were two Iron-armored Ships in the sky, like two beasts floating in midair quietly.
The decks were crowded. Du Heng, Zi Huanyu, Qi Tianhe and Ye Li were all here. On the other one, Du Ziling, Ye Yuhan, Zi Lian and some other young masters and ladies were standing in silence, waiting for the ultimate fight, or for the Bai Emperor Mountain to be tainted red with blood to be exact…
Actually, Zi Lian and Ye Yuhan were somewhat afraid to see it. Yet, as the most outstanding disciples of their families, they must shoulder the responsibility of rejuvenating their families and protecting their people.
No matter how outstanding a talent was, he or she must endure the severe test of blood and fire. Otherwise, there was no way the talent could assume command or grow.
The Heaven Prison City was peaceful. The city was not in a blood bath and some small families were not even looted. Civilians stood in the city, looking to the north, waiting in fear for the collapse of the formation. They knew that when the Bai Emperor Mountain fell, the Heaven Prison City would be the next.
“Boom!”
Right before dark, the formation started to shake at last. It was as if a bubble had burst open. Suddenly, the formation was gone. The Bai Emperor Mountain revealed itself in front of a group bandits like an naked girl.
“Buzzing~”
At the same time, from inside the Heaven Prison City, a Teleportation Formation suddenly lit up. A ray of light shot into the sky, lightening up the dark night and rekindling the hope in many people.
Eight people appeared in the Teleportation Formation. Lu Li looked to the north. When he saw the mountain protection formation opened, he was burning with anxiety.
Without any hesitation, he angrily shouted in Dragon Roar, “I will kill anyone that dares to lay a hand on Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang.”
Hearing the familiar voice, Bai Qiuxue and Bai Xiashuang, who were in the outdoor pavilion and had drawn their weapons, trembled. Tears dropped like rain.
Miracle finally was here. Lu Li had come…
