Chapter 779: Hang In There

Swish, swish, swish~

Lu Li’s face was ghastly pale with scare. He trembled at the sight of everyone wailing. What he dreaded the most must have happened.

“Phew, phew~”

Taking a moment to take a deep breath, he asked, “Where is my sister? Where are my aunt and Bai Qiuxue?”

Those three people were the most important to him. If they were not in this world anymore, he would pass out right now. Meng Zhi and Ke Mang looked at each other. The former elt it was too cruel for Lu Li to know so he stuttered, “Lady Ling and Lady Qiuxue, they… should be fine. I don’t think Madam Feixue is in danger, either.”

“Boom!”

As if a thunderbolt had gone off in Lu Li’s head. Meng Zhi was clearly hesitating and withholding some information. What did he mean that they should be fine or should not be in danger?

Lu Li could not control his feelings. He yelled angrily, “Tell me now. Are they dead or not?”

“No!”

Lu Li was losing his temper. Meng Zhi made up his mind and answered, “Lady Ling and Lady Qiuxue went to the Clouds Plains a month ago and now they should be on their way to the Central Plains. Madam Feixue, Ye Cha, Bai Xiashuang and Madam Yan and many others were taken away by the four families. Lady Ling is going to the Central Plains to save them…”

“What?”

Lu Li was shivering. His lips were trembling. There was a shake in his voice, “Have they left their jade talismans of life behind? Are they broken yet?”

“I don’t know…”

Shaking his head, Meng Zhi said, “Lady Ling told me to stay in command here. Her jade talisman of life should be in Ming Yu’s hands. He is guarding the base camp.”

“Let’s go!”

Giving Meng Zhi a jade talisman, Lu Li entered the Wicked Bead. Then, he shouted, “Ke Mang, don’t fight this. I will take some of you in. Meng Zhi and the rest of you, stay here and assume command. Let me know by breaking the jade talisman should anything happens.”

“Buzzing, buzzing~”

The Wicked Bead glowed as Ke Mang and others were taken in. Ke Mang merely felt a glow and then he realized he was in a small hall where many powerful warriors were in. Ke Mang was completely frightened.

“Sit down with your legs crossed and don’t move. There is Feather Wind in the hall. Touch it and you will die.”

Lu Li shouted. Meng Zhi too tall. They could easily come in contact with the Feather Wind if they were in the hall. Therefore, Lu Li had told them to stay behind and assume command.

“Whoosh~”

The Wicked Bead dashed toward the base camp. The Wicked Bead was so fast that Meng Zhi and people of the two clans were stupefied. At the same time, their hope was renews. Their Saint Lord had always been able to create miracles. Maybe this time, he would be able to make vigorous efforts to turn the situation.

Lu Li didn’t care about what Meng Zhi was thinking. Turning to Ke Mang, he said, “Tell me what has happened and leave no detail out. You don’t have to worry about them in here. They are all my slaves.”

“What?”

Ke Mang and the other Shadowland Race people shivered in disbelief. That being said, they dread in asking more questions. Ke Mang took a deep breath before he gave a quick account of everything that happened recently.

“You four families!”

Ke Mang went on for the time for two incense sticks to burn to finish the story. Lu Li was burning with rage after he heard Ke Mang out. “I will see to it that your families are broken up this time. Who gave you the guts to hurt my sister and all the others? I swear I will kill every last one of your families!” Shouted Lu Li in fury.

This was what Lu Li was most scared of—

The four families had invaded ahead of schedule. Three months ago, powerful warriors of the four families suddenly arrived and struck the Northern Desert, Clouds Plains and Serenity Plains. Every team had an Earth Immortal Realm leader, many Human Sovereign Realm warriors and more of the Noble Lord Realm. Lu Ling had merely left two Human Sovereign Realm warriors to guard the Serenity Plains so it fell into enemy hands in a matter of days. All of Lu Ling’s men were murdered. At least a hundred thousand more were killed or injured.

The Northern Desert was not in a better place. The Ling Empress City was leveled to the ground. Madam Yan and Bai Xiashuang that had gone to the Ling Empress City for a tour were abducted. The rest had all perished in fight, including several Noble Lord Realm warriors of the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race. Bai Family disciples had all died.

The other cities at the Northern Desert were breached soon. Zi Huanqiao died in battle and so did Yu Huashen. Yu Family and Zi Family suffered from a bloodbath. Merely very few of the two families survived other than the disciples that were staying in the Inferno to cultivate.

Liu Yi was killed and there was no more Liu Family. Countless cities at the Northern Desert were razed to the ground. Population was almost halved. Almost all the warriors that did not flee were killed. A large number of civilians were affected as well.

It was the same over at the Clouds Plains…

Lu Ling’s Human Sovereign Realm warriors’ families at the Black Wolf Mountain, Drifting Cloud City and other places were all wiped out. A foul wind and a rain of blood swept across the Clouds Plains, Serenity Plains and the Northern Desert. At least ten million warriors were killed or injured. Corpses covered the plain and blood flew like river.

And this was nothing…

The Deserted World was almost breached as well. Lu Ling didn’t expect that the four families would start their invasion this early so she was not full prepared. A Human Sovereign Realm warrior of the Samsara Place used a special skill to sneak in. If it were not for the fact that God of Meng fought with his life to destroy the passageway connecting the Deserted World and the Northern Desert, both the Deserted World and the Inferno would have fallen. But God of Meng perished in battle…

Samsara Palace and the Hades Society sent over three Human Sovereign Realm warriors and hundreds Noble Lord Realm warriors. They put on a killing spree at the Deserted World. Too many of various races in the Deserted World lost their lives in battle. Ke Lv, Ke Mang’s grandpa, took someone with him to establish destruction formations. Unfortunately, he was killed by the three Human Sovereign Realm warrior. Chee-kar lost her life as well. The three Human Sovereign Realm warriors eliminated at least millions in the Deserted World.

While the three of them were slaughtering away in the Deserted World, Lu Ling was not there. She had gone to the Clouds Plains with her Human Sovereign Realm warriors!

They had not gone to defend the Clouds Plains against invasion but to save Lu Feixue who had been tricked into going to the Clouds Plains. Lu Suan… had developed a plot. He lured Lu Feixue over by assuming the name of Lu Renhuang.

However…

By the time Lu Ling brought her team to the Clouds Plains, Lu Feixue had been taken hostage and so was Ye Cha who went with her. If Lu Ling had not made the resolute decision of going back to the Deserted World, she would have been trapped and even killed.

When Lu Li came back to the Deserted World, the three Human Sovereign Realm and hundreds of Noble Lord Realm warriors had already turned the Deserted World a place of the dead and ruins. Lu Ling told Ke Mang to close off the passageway to the Clouds Plains. Then, leading her Human Sovereign Realm warriors, she killed all the enemies.

After the Deserted World was stabilized and Lu Ling made due arrangements, she brought those Human Sovereign Realm warriors out of the Deserted World again. She stated that she was going to kill her way to the Central Plains to get back at the four families. She declared that she was going to save Lu Feixue, Ye Cha, Bai Xiashuang and the others.

Apart from Ming Yu and Meng Zhi, the other Human Sovereign Realm warriors all went with her, along with Bai Qiuxue and Little White. Over a year ago, Little White was found. This was the only… delightful news.

It had been five years. Even with such a blessed land as the Inferno, nobody had reached the Earth Immortal Realm. Lu Ling going to the Central Plains with Human Sovereign Realm warriors was practically a suicide mission…

Lu Li found some questions of this entire event.

Why did the four families initiate the attack ahead of time? Were they not afraid that Xing Mu, Grand Master of Demon-slaying Hall would fly into rage and wipe out their families directly? What was more, they had massacred so many people and implicated so many civilians. Why were they not afraid of public wrath?

What was more, Lu Ling had been a person of composure and reason. She could be regarded as heartless and cruel. How come this time, she was so impulsive as to bring Human Sovereign Realm warriors to the Central Plains?

Why Lu Feixue was lured over so easily? Did Lu Ling received no warning? Too many questions were bothering Lu Li.

But…

None of these mattered now. Too many had lost their lives. Lu Ling, Bai Qiuxue and many more had their lives in danger. They might even… have fallen in battle.

Lu Li had been trembling. He clenched his fists and his finger nails were biting his palm. But he displayed no emotion. He closed his eyes, praying to himself again and again, “Hang in there, sister and Qiuxue. Aunt, please hang in there. I will be there soon, very soon!”
