Chapter 86: Something Wrong with the Bottle

Chapter 86: Something Wrong with the Bottle

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Zhao Rui had a broken leg, and was covered in blood. His armor was removed. With hair disheveled, he looked like a malicious ghost.

Seeing the misery his favorite son was in, fire of rage burst out in Zhao Gui’s heart. It was like only by killing tens of thousands of men could he quench his anger.

He was not at his maximum speed and had his eyes locked on the young man that was wearing his son’s armor. The killing intent was getting stronger. However, he was shocked and surprised. Clearly, judging by the qi and energy of Lu Li, he could tell that Lu Li had just made it to the Spirit Sea Realm. How could he kill Patriarch Qing?

Lu Li stopped. He looked solemn. It was lucky that he did not kill Zhao Rui. Otherwise, he could have no bargaining chip.

The qi and energy of Zhao Gui was ferocious as if he was as strong as a dragon. Obviously, he was a warrior of the Soul Pond Realm. Granted, Lu Li had his means, but he was not so arrogant as to think that he could compete with a powerful warrior of the Soul Pond Realm.

In the Northern Desert, the difference in realms meant a world of discrepancies. A man of a higher Realm could sweep away a group of warriors of a lower realm.

Take warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm as an example. Their Xuan Energy was much condensed than that of the warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm. The discrepancies in speed, strength and defensive abilities were large as well. A group of warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm wouldn’t be able to defeat one at the Spirit Sea Realm.

Warriors of the Soul Pond Realm were much more powerful!

Soul Pond Realm was to build a pond inside one’s soul to make it exceptionally mighty which will enhance one’s perception, reaction and other abilities.

The eyesight, hearing ability, sense of smell and perceptive abilities of warriors of the Soul Pond Realm were so much more powerful than warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm. Even if a warrior was fast, the actions would be like a slow motion in the eyes of a Soul Pond Realm warrior. Before a warrior even made a move, his Soul Pond Realm opponent would have figured out a countermeasure. How would the warrior win?

There was another marked feature of the Soul Pond Realm, i.e., external release of the Xuan Energy. The speed and sharpness of the external release of Xuan Energy could compare with those of an Earth Grade Xuan Artifact. It could kill people across separated place.

Therefore, Lu Li stopped immediately. He stomped on Zhao Rui’s head with one leg, and held the Heaven Kylin Sword against his neck. Lu Li looked at Zhao Rui who was approaching him coldly.

The ultimate fate of warriors was death!

That was what Lu Ling said. Lu Li was not afraid of death. If Zhao Gui were to kill him, he would have Zhao Rui buried with him.

Swish!

Right at that moment, from a back alley, a shadow rushed here with another person on its back. Seeing what was happening before their eyes, they stopped.

It was Liu Yi and Lu Ling. Liu Yi’s delicate body was trembling in fear seeing that Zhao Gui rushing about and roaring like a barbarous beast, and that Lu Li was holding his broadsword against Zhao Rui.

Lu Ling got off from Liu Yi’s back, and stood in front of the latter with the help of her walking stick. Lu Ling said in a soft voice, "Lady Yi, leave now. If… you want your life, evacuate from the west gate. The Liu Family is doomed."

Liu Yi went backwards out of instinct. However, after she got into the alley, she somehow stopped. She wanted to see if Lu Li, with the hostage at his hands, could escape from a furious Zhao Gui unscratched.

Zi Lian was curious as well. Even though there was a hostage, Zhao Gui was at the Soul Pond Realm and at the latter stage no less. He would have more than 100 ways to put Lu Li to death.

In the time for just a few breaths, Zhao Gui landed in front of Lu Li with only more than 100 feet between them. The distance was good. Lu Li would not feel too threatened, but Zhao Gui could use external release of Xuan Energy to attack Lu Li in an instant.

Zhao Rui had lost a lot of blood which made him in a coma. The broken leg was still bleeding. Suppressing down the anger against his will, Zhao Gui shouted coldly, "Punk, release my son and I will spare you a life."

What he said was like a bad joke. If Lu Li believed that, he would be an idiot. Lu Li stared at Zhao Gui and kept an eye on his every move. If Zhao Gui dared to do anything rash, Lu Li would kill Zhao Rui immediately with one stroke of his sword.

Lu Li kept silent for a while before he spoke, "Patriarch Zhao, you son is still bleeding. Even though his leg is broken, if you can get your hands on Heaven Grade Elixir, he can grow his limb back. But if you were to let him bleed like this, you wouldn’t be able to help him even if you could find some supernatural beings. So… you might just as well show some sincerity."

Zhao Gui frowned. He felt the matter was delicate. Lu Li was showing a calmness unmatched to his age. If he were to postpone like this, Zhao Rui might really die from excessive loss of blood.

Zhao Gui considered it and said, "What are your conditions. I require that my son remains alive. If he were dead, your whole family would die as well."

"That is easy!"

Lu Li already had a plan in his mind. He said, "Give me a carriage. I will bring your son along with me to get out of the county. You cannot send anyone to track us down or to kill us. I promise that I will release him once we are about 93 miles away from the county. If I don’t, just send someone to hunt me down then."

The reason for Lu Ling to ask Lu Li to capture Zhao Rui alive was simple, to flee with a hostage. Lu Li thought that if they were more than 90 miles away from the County, it would be difficult enough for the Zhao Family to hunt them down. Then, Lu Li could run away with Lu Ling easily.

Zhao Gui did not speak for the time of ten breaths. After that, he opened his mouth, "You can bring my son along. I can have the carriage arranged for you. However, you must swear that Rui can be safe. Also, I can let you know clearly that, Lord Yu’s power in the Northern Desert is beyond your wildest imagination. If you dare to kill Rui, I promise you that we will find you to the end of the world and murder everyone that is faintly related to you."

Hearing Zhao Gui’s words, Lu Li was relieved. So it seemed that Zhao Gui really adored Zhao Rui and dared not to do anything rash.

As for the threat, Lu Li left that part out. It was true that Lord Yu was in possession of enormous power, but was Zhao Gui worthy of Lord Yu using all his power to kill Lu Li?

"This is a battle of top level healing power. Treat my son with it first. I will have someone to get that carriage ready for you."

Zhao Gui took a small bottle out of his robe and threw it to Lu Li. Then he turned around as if he was ready to ask someone to get that carriage.

Lu Li did not pay much attention as he thought it was just a regular bottle. He was ready to catch it.

However, Lu Ling, who was a distance, felt something was not right as she saw the glimpse of chillness in Zhao Gui’s eyes. She walked over quickly on her walking stick and shouted, "Brother, there is something wrong with that bottle!"

The bottle was flying his way and Lu Li was ready to grab it. On hearing Lu Ling’s words, he realized something after a second of pause. Then he was going to smash away the bottle with his hand.

"Too late now!" Zhao Gui suddenly turned around and shouted in a deep voice, "Explode!"

"Boom!"

The bottle suddenly burst and white power flew all around. Lu Li’s head and body were covered in the power and some got on his eyes inevitably. Lu Li groaned out of pain. He staggered for a bit and almost fell to the ground.

"Die!"

Lu Li felt that his eyes had this prickling pain. He could not keep his eyes open, but he could tell where Zhao Rui was at. In a fit of rage, Lu Li swung his Heaven Kylin Sword and was ready to kill Zhao Rui with one move.

"Hmm!"

Zhao Gui was a warrior of the Soul Pond Realm. At this moment, if Lu Li still could kill Zhao Rui, then Zhao Gui’s previous life would have been in vain. He lifted his hands and smashed out a cyan-colored fist shadow and released his Xuan Energy. A fist shadow flew towards Lu Li at a horrifying speed with a sharp sound.

The speed of external release of Xuan Energy was too fast. Zhao Gui was only about 100 feet away from Lu Li, so the fist shadow approached Lu Li in an instant. When Lu Li’s Heaven Kylin Sword was about to land on Zhao Rui, the fist shadow was already close.

The sharp noise was too unpleasant to the ears. Besides, because of the external release of Xuan Energy, there was some horrifying qi and energy that accompanied it. Lu Li felt that his life was threatened.

Lu Li lifted up his Heaven Kylin Sword out of instinct and held it horizontally in front of his chest to defend. His instinct told him that before he could cut Zhao Rui with his Heaven Kylin Sword, he would be killed. As such, Lu Li had chosen to protect himself.

The cyan-colored shadow was of the size of a fist. It was more like a ball of cyan mass of air. However, its shape was like that of a fist.

The fist shadow hit the Heaven Kylin Sword. Terrifying strength came Lu Li’s way which directly knocked the Heaven Kylin Sword out of Lu Li’s hand. Then, the fist shadow landed on Lu Li’s chest.

"Bang!"

Lu Li was knocked into flying. In mid-air, blood kept coming out of his mouth. Lu Li was smacked away for more than 1000 feet. He landed in a stone fort. It was hard to tell whether he was alive or not.
