“Great grandpa?”
Lu Li frowned. Image of an aged and inflexible man sprang to Lu Li’s mind. He shook his head and said, “Great grandpa has rebuilt his memory and he has no recollection of the past now. He has nothing to do with the Lu Family. He isn’t even worried about my grandpa’s life. How would he concern himself about me?”
“This is where you are wrong, Lu Li!”
Ye Luo interrupted, “It’s not like we are dead. Every human being feels things. One of our ancestor also rebuilt his soul. He claims that he doesn’t know us. But I know that… as long as it’s not against the rules of the Demon-slaying Hall, he will favor our Ye Family.”
“I’ve heard something about your grandpa. I understand that he has been harmed by very potent Voodoo toxins. Even the Demon-slaying Hall would have to invest a lot to cure him. But if the Lu Family can make a great contribution at the Demon-slaying Grounds, I believe your grandpa will lend a hand.”
“However…after your grandpa suffered from this misfortune, none from Lu Family ever enters the Demon-slaying Grounds. How can your great grandpa help? He is the Law Enforcement Patriarch. If he put personal interests over common interest, how can he establish his authority?”
“But your case is different. This is not your fault to start with. You are a disciple of the Lu Family and you have made great contribution by killing so many alien races here. Even if the four forces were to gang up on you, your great grandpa will take your side. After all, you are from the same family!”
Ye Luo’s words surprised Lu Li who thought they made sense. After Lu Li’s grandpa was poisoned, Lu Zhengtan and the rest were busy fighting for the power. They would not send anyone to the Demon-slaying Grounds to make contributions. Maybe there were some who desired to come but were forbidden by Lu Zhengtan who would rather Lu Li’s grandpa never woke up…
“Demon-slaying Grounds?”
In the real Demon-slaying Grounds, there must be a huge number of powerful warriors with Human Sovereign Realm warriors were not to be noticed. There must be some at the Earthly Immortal Realm as well. Lu Li going there would be practically tracing a path to his own death.
Could he ever own power comparable to a warrior of the Earthly Immortal Realm in this lifetime? By the time he reached the level and entered the Demon-slaying Grounds, his grandpa would have been long gone.
Seeing that Lu Li didn’t give any response, Lu Hongyu added, “Lu Li, Ye Luo is right. If the Demon-slaying Hall is going to take the matter over, nobody at the four forces can mess with you, at least…during in the short term. Trust us and trust our great grandpa.”
“Alright!”
After a while, Lu Li answered with a sigh, “Then I will spare their lives for now. Little White!”
Little White was sleeping and woke up with a start at Lu Li’s voice. It sneaked out from his sleeve. Lu Li looked at it and said, “Get the Ding of Barbarian God out.”
“Buzzing!”
A shadow of a round tripod Ding appeared between Little White’s eyebrows. Soon, it grew to be one that Lu Li could hold in his hand. Lu Li, Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu all inspected with their psychic power.
“Hiss…”
Lu Hongyu and Ye Luo were stunned as soon as they sent their psychic power in. The situation in the Ding of Barbarian God was shocking by the sight.
Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu were sitting side by side. They had lost both their hair and their eyebrows. Their skins were burnt and they were still under the impact of thunderbolts. Both of them were trembling regularly. If Lu Hongyu and Ye Luo were not careful, they might not recognize Die Feiyu and Ji Mengtian. The famous beauties of the Central Plain were now no different from homeless guys and ghosts…
Lu Suan, Yang Xuan and Lu Ni and the rest were on the ground. There were several bodies next to Yang Xuan and Lu Ni. They were also being struck by thunderbolts and would spasm every now and then. There were foams at the mouths of Lu Ni and some others, a sight too horrible to bear.
“Little White, stop the thunderbolts!”
Lu Li pouted and said with no emotion. With a glare from Little White’s horns, the Inhibition Formations in the Ding of Barbarian God finally stopped. The iron wall’s glare died out and it became pitch dark inside.
“Buzzing!”
Soon, someone opened their eyes in confusion, thinking that this was a dream. When they looked at each other and made sure that this was real, they all expressed joy of surviving a disaster. Some of them grinned, showing white teeth. It was quite spooky in a pitch dark Ding of Barbarian God.
“Buzzing!”
Die Feiyu was the first one to come back to senses. She released Source of Life Bloodline skill at once to heal others. After a while, they all felt better. Making sure that the thunderbolts had stopped, Yang Xuan, Lu Ni and the rest sat up while grimacing in pain.
Yang Xuan took in his surroundings. Rage was getting stronger. He yelled hysterically, “Lu Li, continue if you have balls or kill me. What? You don’t have the guts? You are nothing but a coward. When I get out, I will tear you into pieces!”
Lu Ni was also boiling with anger. He stood up, pointed to above them and shouted abuse. He swore very vigorously. Lu Suan and Ji Mengtian looked at each other and shook their heads with bitter smiles.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The answer Lu Ni and Yang Xuan received was electric arcs showing up again and a rain of thunderbolts. Die Feiyu almost jumped out of her skin. She yelled, “You two idiots, stop that. We will be more miserable…if you go on like this. Lu Li, don’t do this to us. I am sorry. I am really sorry…”
Die Feiyu was sincere in her apologies but thunderbolts didn’t discriminate. She was struck again. She was trembling so violently that she could not say another word.
When Yang Xuan and Lu Ni found themselves in thunderbolt storms again, they felt remorse and fear. The past eight days were more than hell to them. They almost had a mental breakdown. Now that it finally stopped, thunderbolts strikes began again just because of their swearing. They took everyone else down with them as well…
“Stop it, Lu Li!”
Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu looked at each other speechlessly. She couldn’t help but beg when she saw how miserable those were in there.
“Relax, they are not going to die!”
Lu Li said casually and then added after some thoughts, “We are going to arrive at the base camp of the Barbarian Race. I will go back with you to our base camp after I get some more thunderbolts. Cousin Hongyu, find a man to send Jiang Qiling a word. Tell her not to worry and I will be back soon.”
“What are you going to do at the base camp of the Barbarian Race?”
Lu Hongyu was still in confusion when Lu Li had already rushed away. She chased after him quickly. Ye Luo broke a jade talisman in his hand and followed up as well.
In just several hours, they arrived at the base camp of the Barbarian Race. Seeing the killer Lu Li come back, barbarians almost went into riot. Rui the Iron had the expression as if his own father had died.
Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu stood behind Lu Li nervously. They were afraid to breathe when faced with such a crowd of barbarians.
Lu Li stood in the front by himself and looked into the base camp. He spotted Rui the Iron in the crowd and shouted, “Rui the Iron, get your ass out of here!”
A huge sensation swept across the base camp again. Rui the Iron walked out with some barbarians in bitterness. But he didn’t go across the edge of the base camp because he was too terrified.
Pulling a long face, Rui the Iron said to Lu Li, “Human, what do you want now?”
Lu Li showed him the Ding of Barbarian God in his hand and asked, “Can its power be elevated? Can I kill Human Sovereign Realm warriors in it?”
Rui the Iron was stunned. Then he asked coldly, “You, you have…made the Ding of Barbarian God work?”
Lu Li smiled coldly and whispered something to Little White. From its head, electric arcs glared. Lu Li threw the Ding of Barbarian God up and it enlarged and floated in midair. Black airs were circulating around it. Runes were faintly visible as a surge of energy extended out.
Lu Li glared at Rui the Iron as he said, “Rui the Iron, should I put you away in it for a couple of days? I want to see if it can kill you.”
“Ah? You…you have made it work? How is this possible?”
Rui the Iron stepped back in shock. This Ding of Barbarian God could not work only with thunderbolt energy, but also Bloodline unique to the Barbarian Race. He had given it to Lu Li so generously because Rui the Iron thought humans could not make it work. How would he know that Lu Li could?
