Chapter 82: Cripple Zhao Rui



Chapter 82: Cripple Zhao Rui

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

"Zi Lian, my little darling sister, you know that young man?"

Hearing the whisper of the jade-flute-holding girl, the other one in the light yellow dress turned around and asked. However, the jade-flute girl shook her head and answered, "Ye Yuhan, I just met him on one occasion. This young man… is a bit strange. Too bad he cannot awaken a powerful Bloodline."

The other powerful warriors in golden armors next to her all nodded in agreement. They could easily tell that there was something strange in Lu Li who had just made it to the Spirit Sea Realm but was in possession of such speed and strength. He was such a maverick genius. Nevertheless… he did not awaken a powerful Bloodline, so to these warriors, Lu Li was not of much use, unworthy of soliciting.

Zi Lian couldn’t agree more. Her Family, the Zi Family, was not in want of talents. Countless geniuses and powerful warriors longed to join the Zi Family. Without successfully awakening a powerful Bloodline, one wouldn’t even be qualified to step into the door of the Zi Family.

"Sh*t, he is wearing an Earth Grade armor!"

In the west yard of the Liu Family compound, Lu Li had chased Zhao Rui for more than a mile and had cut at Zhao Rui for three times. However, he could not crack Zhao Rui’s armor. Lu Ling had told Lu Li to capture Zhao Rui alive, so Lu Li only wished to hurt Zhao Rui instead of aiming at his head.

"Father, help me!"

Zhao Rui shouted while running. He had been hit by Lu Li for three times. Death was near him. If it were not for the fact that he was wearing Earth Grade armor, he would have died three times already.

He knew clearly that if the Zhao Family did not send powerful warriors to help him out now, Lu Li would not let him get away. Zhao Rui would die. That much was certain.

Zhao Rui did not want to die. He was going to be the young overlord of the Wu Ling County, with a glorious future waiting for him. The world was a wonderful place with so many pretty girls. How could he die before he had a taste of all this?

"Whoosh!"

A shadow rushed over here at a horribly fast speed from the south yard. The emergency signal detonator Zhao Rui just threw worked. Seeing the familiar face, he cried with joy and screamed, "Patriarch Qing, help me!"

That firework was the emergency signal detonator of the Zhao Family. The family was alarmed and a powerful warrior was sent for rescue. He was a powerful Patriarch of the External Clan, a warrior at the latter stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. Lu Li, on the other hand, had just made it to the Spirit Sea Realm. As long as Patriarch Qing was here, Lu Li would be slaughtered so easily.

"Latter stage of the Spirit Sea Realm? Fu*k!"

Lu Li kept the swearing to himself. He clenched his teeth and speeded up. Swinging his Heaven Kylin Sword, Lu Li cut at Zhao Rui’s leg in a hard way.

Lu Ling asked for the live capture of Zhao Rui, but there was no possibility that Lu Li could capture a Zhao Rui that was intact. He had to cripple Zhao Rui first. Even though a crippled person could not stop Zhao Family’s pursuing forces, it was still better than a dead body.

"Punk, I dare you."

The shadow rushing from the distance saw what Lu Li was about to do. The man shouted angrily, but Lu Li took no heed to what he saw and continued his move.

"Ah!"

Lu Li was so fast that Zhao Rui could not dodge. He only had Earth Grade armor protecting his body but not his legs. In a fit of wrath, Lu Li directly broke Zhao Rui’s right leg. With a miserable cry, Zhao Rui hugged his leg and rolled about on the ground.

"Young Master Rui? I will tear you apart you bastard!"

Patriarch Qing was now only less than a mile away from Lu Li. Patriarch Qing jumped from one cockloft to another, shortening the distance. One could feel the murderous intent spreading from him without being at close proximity with him. It seemed to have made the rain’s falling slow down.

However, the rain wasn’t falling any slower. It was getting smaller. The rain came fast, so did it stop.

"Is the rain going to stop now?"

Lu Ling, who was standing at the door in the Guest Clan yard, mumbled. Suddenly, she walked towards the outside on her walking stick. Liu Yi was startled and she asked, "Miss Lu, where are you going? It’s dangerous out there!"

Lu Ling threw a look to the south and replied, "My brother seems to be in trouble. I need to see him and help him."

It had been a while since Lu Li set out to chase Zhao Rui. Based on his fighting capacity, he should have captured Zhao Rui alive and come back. Just now, a signal detonator exploded which clearly was a sign that Zhao Rui was asking for help from the powerful warriors of the Zhao Family.

When Liu Yi saw the signal detonator, she was worried as well. However, her combat ability was not as good as Lu Li’s. Besides, she was guarding the west gate under orders so she could not leave.

Regardless of what Liu Yi thought, Lu Ling walked out on her walking stick step by step. Liu Yi thought about it and said between clenched teeth, "Miss Lu. I will take you there."

Liu Yi did not know how much help Lu Ling could be, nor did she know what would happen when they got there. She just wanted to offer a hand to Lu Ling and Lu Li out of her instinct.

Lu Li and his sister had rocked her world tonight. Unconsciously, she wanted to be closer to this brother-sister pair.

Lu Ling could not walk fast. She had absolutely no fighting capacity, not to mention that she had a crippled leg. After a few steps, she asked suddenly, "Lady Yi, could you please carry me on your back and get to my brother as fast as possible?"

"Sure!"

Without even thinking about, Liu Yi carried Lu Ling on her back and ran wildly towards the place the signal detonator exploded.

The fight at the west yard was over, but the one at the front gate of the south yard had just begun.

All the Soul Pond Realm warriors and Spirit Sea Realm warriors on both sides had gone out to fight. Warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm had been fighting so intensely that a charnel pit emerged.

More than 1000 warriors of the Xuan Wu Realm were sent out to fight by the four Families at the north gate. The number of such warriors of the Liu Family was about the same. Currently, more than a half of warriors on both sides had succumbed to death or injuries.

The rain falling on the square within the south gate was tainted red with blood. Severed limbs were lying on the ground. Numerous severely injured men fell to the pool of blood, screaming and rolling around. It was bloodily awful.

The Liu Family had three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm altogether, but the Family Patriarch was still in a coma so he could not participate.

The Chief Patriarch and Second Patriarch were at the Soul Pond Realm. Presently, they were fighting at close quarters with Zhao Family Patriarch Zhao Gui and the Lu [1] Family Patriarch. However, there was another man apart from the two of the Soul Pond Realm on the Liu Family’s side. A stranger elder with brown hair was fighting against the Family Patriarchs of the Chen Family and the He Family.

The stranger brown-haired elder was the reinforcement invited by the Liu Family. In order to invite him, the Liu Family paid a high price. Nearly half of the Family wealth was spent on this.

Unfortunately…

The Family Patriarchs of the four Families were all at the Soul Pond Realm, which made it one more than the number of such warriors of the Liu Family. Even though the four Families were just second rank ones, it did not indicate that there was no warriors of Soul Pond Realm in these families. The Family Patriarchs of the four Families were all powerful warriors at this Realm.

If a family had three warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm, then it would be a Second Rank Family. A family with three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm would be of the Third Rank.

This was the standard of distinction of family ranks at the Northern Desert. If a family had two warriors of the Soul Pond Realm, it would still be of merely the Second Rank. That was the situation for the four Families.

Four against three!

Granted, the Liu Family had invited a warrior that had reached the peak of the Soul Pond Realm to help them out, but the Liu Family was still in a strain. The invited brown-haired elder could manage with great efforts to fight against two on his own. Liu Family’s Chief Patriarch had advantage over Zhao Rui, even though their Second Patriarch could not win over Lu Family Patriarch…

However!

There were more warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm of the four Families than the Liu Family. The morale of the Liu Family troops was sinking. Many were fighting perfunctorily and were even ready to evacuate at any moment.

Lord Yu had come, assuming command at the Zhao Family compound. Even if he did not try to resolve this matter in person, he could still exert great influence upon everyone and make people stretch with stress.

A Patriarch of a Fifth Rank family, a powerhouse ranked top 50 on the Northern Desert Warlord list, was more powerful than people could imagine.

"Bang!"

Chief Patriarch released a streak of Xuan Energy and used his sword to force Zhao Gui to fall back. Chief Patriarch glanced around him and made up his mind. He shouted toward behind him, "Brother Eighteen!"

Inside a room of a barbican, a grey-haired elderly heard the angry roar of the Chief Patriarch. The elderly had no choice but to take out a pellet and help a bony old man lying on the bed to take it.

The pellet was one of the most precious kind, of the Eighth Rank of the Earth Grade. The pellet was priceless. The old man lying on the bed was the Family Patriarch of the Liu Family. It was highly likely that he would wake up after he took this invaluable pellet.

That being said…

The efficacy of the pellet was too strong for the Liu Family Patriarch’s body to stand. Even if he was awakened forcefully, he would die completely after several rounds of attacks.

The Liu Family had come to the most critical moment. The Chief Patriarch could not afford to take everything into consideration now. He had to ask Patriarch Eighteen to wake up the Family Patriarch forcibly.

After several moments, the Liu Family Patriarch slowly opened his eyes.

[1] Lu Family as in 鲁家, not Lu Li’s family.
