Chapter 746: As You Wish
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
While the City of Leng was in a state of chaos and bloodbath as the war continued, Lu Li had been enjoying peaceful times.
The three Earth Immortal Realm warriors who stayed behind to keep an eye on him didn’t show themselves. None of the lurking scouts dared to make a move. Everyone was only monitoring the bead and the surrounding situations from afar.
As Lu Li cultivated in the Wicked Bead, he was also trying to think of a way of escape and a safe journey to the entrance of the Prison of Water.
Nobody else could move the Wicked Bead one bit unless it was controlled by Lu Li. He did not have the courage to go out now. He seemed to be stuck.
He could not stay here forever. In several years’ time, the four forces would send troops to the Clouds Plains and the Northern Desert. How would Lu Ling and the others face that by then?
“I wish the Wicked Bead can fly by itself!”
Lu Li sighed. The Wicked Bead was sealed on many levels, and a lot of skills it had could not be put into play. It would take Lu Li years to dissolve the first layer of seal alone. Who knew what would happen in that time? What if someone did crack the Wicked Bead open?
“Leng Wuxin, can you make your antidote here?”
Lu Li suddenly said to Leng Wuxin after he was in deep thoughts for a couple of course. In his bone marrows still hid venoms. Now that he had enough time, he could get himself detoxified first.
“Yes!”
Leng Wuxin nodded and replied. Lu Li told her to go to a corner and start working on it. He himself resumed cultivation again. There was no better way for the time being. All he could do was to dissolve the seal and wait for the cat to jump at the same time.
…
The battle at the City of Leng had been going on for an entire day. It finally came to an end. After all, this was an unequal contest.
For the six families, every family sent two Semi-God Realm warrior, which made the total number 12. In addition, they had more than one hundred Earth Immortal Realm warriors. As a matter of fact, the 12 alone could have leveled the Leng Family.
The one hundred thousand warrior of the Leng Family all died in battle. None of them ran away. Those who should stay alive had gone to their ancestral land. The army stayed to sacrifice their lives for the city.
They had not died in vain, though. The death of Leng Xing and the other old warriors had died a meaningful death. They were able to accomplish a great result. More than half of the Earth Immortal Realm warriors of the group of six and four of the 12 Semi-God Realm warriors were killed.
Leng Family only had six Semi-God Realm warriors, half of what the six families had. But the six Leng Family had were cruel and ferocious. In their every move, they were trying to bring their enemies to death with them. One of the progenitor warriors of the Leng Family blasted himself and managed to kill the Family Patriarch of the Ren Family in the process.
Leaders of the six families were all injured. The Ren Family Patriarch passed away. Hao Changjun had one arm severed from his shoulder. More than 60 of the one hundred Earth Immortal Realm warriors perished. It was a tragic casualty.
Of course!
The group of six had seen rewards. They had taken all the Quasi Relics that once belonged to the Leng Family warriors. In the Interspatial Rings, there were treasures, more or less. The group of six looted the Leng Family and shared among them all the Mystical Materials that Leng Family could not relocate.
“Let’s divide into groups!”
Jun Hongye was not satisfied yet. He said, “Let us get into three teams and take a sweep across the Leng Dynasty. We have lost so many people and what we have now is not enough. We need to go through the Leng Dynasty to recover our damages.”
“Agreed!”
The two families of the Mage Imperial Universe approved Jun Hongye’s proposal. They were not content with the few things they had now. After all, they were only aiming at the Leng Dynasty, not the entire Central Imperial Universe. There wouldn’t be a huge reaction from the universe.
“Okay!”
Jun Hongye shouted, “Send my words. We have sustained a great loss. Given that it is because the Leng Dynasty has resisted, we have decided to ransack the Leng Dynasty. We shall kill all that dare to fight back!”
Several Earth Immortal Realm warriors sprang to work. They went to the scouts hiding nearby to deliver the messages. This was not for the Leng Dynasty to hear, though. But for the other two dynasties and the other families of the Central Imperial Universe. This was to tell them to behave sensibly.
“Move!”
The group of six split into two teams and each flew to a different direction. Hao Changjun was in the same team with Hun Hongye. After a while, Hao Changjun stated that he must find a place to tend to his wounds, that with one broken arm, he was undermined. He told the other Hao Family warriors to follow Jun Hongye and promised he would catch up after he was healed.
Jun Hongye didn’t force Hao Changjun to come. The latter did look pale. Jun Hongye left with the team and Hao Changjun found a mountain to hide and to heal. He had elixirs that could grow broken limbs. In half a month at most, he could be recovered.
However…
He only stayed there for six hours before he suddenly sneaked toward the City of Leng. He was very agile and flexible. There were scouts on the way but nobody was able to see him.
He didn’t fly far. In an hour, he arrived around the Wicked Bead. He used psychic power to check. Soon, he found the lurking scouts and the three Earth Immortal Realm warriors guarding here.
“Whoosh~”
He sneaked over. A bell appeared in his hand and he put it over the three. One of them dodged as the bell flew over but the other two were sucked into the bell.
“Bang, bang, bang~!”
From inside the bell came some noises. The two Earth Immortal Realm warriors were soon knocked out. The other Earth Immortal Realm warrior stood on the side, taking zero actions to fight back. Instead, he looked at Hao Changjun in surprise and asked, “Progenitor, what are you…”
The Earth Immortal Realm warrior was from the Hao Family. He managed to dodge because he received a secret message from Hao Changjun just now. Hao Changjun replied coldly, “No time to talk. Kill all the scouts nearby, all of them. Now!”
The Hao Family Earth Immortal Realm warrior didn’t hesitate. He dashed on like a falcon. Cries of miseries were heard soon. He had known where the scouts were but just didn’t actually executed them before.
In the time for two incense sticks to burn, all the scouts that were lurking in an area of 300 miles were murdered. The Earth Immortal Realm warrior returned and said, “All taken care of now.”
“Good!”
A glint of coldness rose in Hao Changjun’s eyes as he continued, “Keep an eye out. I want to have that bead.”
“The bead?”
The Hao Family Earth Immortal Realm warrior was enlightened. Hao Changjun had come back by himself with the intention to pocket the bead.
The Earth Immortal Realm warrior was excited. It was highly possible that the bead was a Relic. If Hao Family could have it, the family would become the most powerful family among the four universes. By then, they could unify the four major universes and the five minor universes.
“But…”
Hao Family Earth Immortal Realm warrior thought of something and asked, “Progenitor, I think Haochuan will be in danger if you take the bead by force.”
“Hmm!”
Hao Changjun sneered, “One young master and one Relic. Which one is more important? Can’t you tell? It is worthwhile to sacrifice one young master and even half of our family… if we can have the Relic!”
“Buzzing!”
Hao Changjun took out a huge axe. He sprang up like a dragon and then hacked at the bead with intimidating strength.
Any treasure, no matter how strong it was, must need energy to sustain. When the energy ran out or was drained, the defense of the bead would be weakened naturally. He might still not be able to take away the bead, but at least he could get Lu Li and the others out from it.
A damaged Relic can be repaired. The priority was to have the bead. Hao Changjun had one broken arm, but he had rushed over without tending to his wounds just so he could process as soon as possible.
“Bang!”
The huge axe landed on the bead. It gave out a faint glow but remained still. It didn’t even tremble.
Lu Li, who was cultivating inside, sensed what was going on. He yelled in fury, “Hao Family bastard, I think you are dead set on having your disciples killed. If that is the case, I will grant your wish!”
