Chapter 678: Scary

Chapter 678: Scary

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

The last news Lu Li wanted to hear about was some emergencies. Worry was not something he wanted. All he desired was to cultivate in peace, to wait for Bai Qiuxue to wake up so she could see him as soon as she did and he could be there for her, telling her how much he missed her and how sorry he was.

That being said, Lu Li could not neglect when things went wrong at the Inferno. Needless to say, Inferno was critical to Lu Li and Lu Ling considering the amount of Mystical Materials in there. What made it more important was that Inferno could facilitate the study of Profound Meanings. Inferno was a priceless land of treasure that would allow for nothing to go amiss.

Ye Cha had just received the news. He hadn’t had the chance to check so he knew little. Lu Li posed some questions. He went into the room to check on Bai Qiuxue and told Ding Gui to take good care of her. Bai Xiashuang stayed to look after her sister as well.

At the same time, Lu Li asked Meng Zhi and Chee-kar to defend Bai Qiuxue to their last breath and that they could end their own lives should anything happen to Bai Qiuxue.

With all that arranged, Lu Li sent someone to notify Lu Ling. There was no Human Sovereign Realm warrior at the Deserted World and Inferno. All had gone out to take command and clean up enemies. There was a chance that some Beast Kings like the Fire Leopard King would appear and Lu Li would not be able to manage on his own.

“Let’s go!”

Together with Ye Cha, Lu Li teleported away. They must gain a clear idea of the situation first. They kept on teleporting and arrived at the Inferno in just an hour.

The base camp of Inferno was packed with at least 10,000 people. Lu Li had said that people were only allowed in and not out to prevent any leakage of information. Ye Cha himself was in charge of overseeing.

Many were cultivating and as many were resting. Those resting gathered up when they saw Lu Li coming in. Ming Yu and Lu Feiyu had come back to Inferno for some time now. They ran over from the distance.

“This is good~”

Lu Li saw many familiar faces and they had made breakthroughs in their realms. A number of talented disciples were cultivating and progressing in an astonishing speed. The huge amount of Xuan Crystals invested in every month did not go to waste.

“Dismiss!”

Lu Li waved his hand. He walked to the valley with Ming Yu and Lu Feiyu while asking, “What is going on? How many are dead?”

“15!”

Ming Yu said in a low voice, “There is a lake of fire to the west of Fire Qilin’s territory. The lake is full of lava as well as elixirs. A while ago, we sent five scouts to have a look but all five jade talismans of life were broken. On the day you came back, I sent over another five scouts and let a Noble Lord Realm warrior lead the team. However, the entire team was wiped out.”

“Therefore, I hurried back from the Snow Mountain of Dragons. I mobilized yet another five scouts during the past couple of days. Among them is a new Noble Lord Realm warrior of the Cyan Phoenix Race. Sadly…they were all gone!”

Lu Li turned to Ye Cha and detected a hint of sorrow and lament in the latter’s eyes. Lu Li asked, “Who was that?”

“Ye Ru, a nice kid. He had just reached the Noble Lord Realm!” Ye Cha said with pain. Cyan Phoenix Race had more Noble Lord Realm warriors over the years but the total number was still less than 20. Any one dying would make Ye Cha suffer.

There was no words comforting enough. Lu Li patted Ye Cha’s shoulder and asked Ming Yu again, “15 are dead now and you found nothing? Was it a Beast King?”

“That is where it gets scary!”

Ming Yu and Lu Feixue looked at each other with confusion. Lu Feixue explained, “When Ye Ru left, we gave him three jade talismans and told him that he should break the first one if it was a Beast King, the second one for a monster and the third one for a human. However…both the second and the third one were broken!”

“What?”

Lu Li and Ye Cha’s eyes were wide open in shock. They didn’t believe their ears but Ming Yu nodded. He took out three jade talismans and two were broken. Lu Li asked with surprise, “Did Ye Ru get it wrong? There are other human beings other than us in the Inferno?”

The entrance was controlled by Lu Li’s force. If some unauthorized people had sneaked in, Ming Yu and Ye Cha would have proven themselves useless. Granted, Ye Ru had just reached the Noble Lord Realm, but the Cyan Phoenix Race was fast. Average Noble Lord Realm warriors couldn’t have killed Ye Ru.

Ming Yu answered with a frown, “Neither your aunt nor I can make any sense of it. So, we have asked Clan Leader Ye and you to come in so we can discuss together.”

“Sure. Don’t send more to death now. Ye Cha and I will go to the base camp at the Fire Qilin’s territory now!”

Lu Li waved his hand and continued, “You two stay here. If the Human Sovereign Realm warrior sent by my sister arrives, let him come to me directly.”

Lu Feiyu stopped Lu Li and said, “Don’t go. It is dangerous. Wait here.”

“What danger?”

Lu Li grinned confidently and said, “Your nephew now can even kill Human Sovereign Realm warriors. What is more, to wait here and there, what is the difference? Don’t worry. I will not go into the lake of fire before the Human Sovereign Realm warrior gets here.”

There was a Formation of Destruction built at the territory of the Fire Qilin. Lu Feixue was convinced that the location made little difference. She didn’t try to stop Lu Li any further. Now that Lu Ling was notified, she would send a Human Sovereign Realm warrior over soon enough.

Ye Cha and Lu Li exited from the valley soon and flew directly toward the Fire Qilin’s territory where there was another base camp with some armies and warriors stationed there. Lu Li was worried that the mysterious warrior or monster would come out from the fire lake and attack the base camp. That was his reason to check the situation.

With the Rising Dragon Skill, even though he was not yet clear about its exact power, Lu Li could kill Human Sovereign Realm warriors with ease. That and the Dragon fear could enable him to control any regular Beast Kings. Lu Li was emboldened by the facts. Plus, with the Formation of Destruction, it was safer.

They flew for a couple of hours before they arrived at the base camp. Amongst the mountains there was a layer of mist, an indication that the formation was still there, which had brought assurance to the two.

“Buzzing!”

A ray of light shot out from a mountain. Ke Mang flew out with more than a dozen people to greet Lu Li. He went into the mountain with the group without asking too much.

He only had some simple questions. Yet, none had gathered much information. They only said that it was safe outside the fire lake. However, anyone that had gone into the fire lake had died. Naturally, there was no way to collect intelligence.

“Send someone to the lakeshore.” Lu Li waved his hand and said, “Let they come back and report to me right away as soon as they find anything in the lake.”

Several scouts moved out. Lu Li decided not to take the risk and that he would wait for the arrival of the Human Sovereign Realm warrior sent by Lu Ling.

Three days passed and nothing happened at the fire lake. The Human Sovereign Realm warriors sent by Lu Li arrived. Apart from God of Meng, Yan Zhen, the master of Yama Palace at the Serenity Plains, a warrior at the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm, also came.

God of Meng said, “Saint Lord, the other Human Sovereign Realm warriors are further away so Lady Ling sent us over for now. She wants me to let you know that if you feel danger, don’t push it. Go back to the base camp or seal off the Inferno for now. We can deal with it after she stabilized the Serenity Plains.”

“Of course!”

Lu Li nodded. God of Meng was strong and Yan Zhen was at the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm. The three of them could at least step back even if they couldn’t defeat whatever Human Sovereign Realm warriors or monsters they would encounter.

Lu Li waved them off, flew out and shouted, “Let’s go and have a look at the fire lake. I want to see what kind of demons are causing trouble.”
