As Lu Li was about to reach the entrance to the Prison of Water, he ran into two more Semi-God Realm warriors who were fast enough to keep up with the Wicked Bead.
One of the warriors was wearing a red robe, and the other one a green robe. The juxtaposition of the two colors bordered on being frivolous, very inappropriate for the two elder warriors.
Seeing how fast the Wicked Bead was, the two warriors were green with envy. They dashed over and employed many powerful means in an attempt to intercept the Wicked Bead.
After several rounds of attack, not only did they not stop the Wicked Bead, they realized they could not shake the bead by one bit. The glow over the bead remained at the same level. The two warriors were taken back, which was followed by a surge of excitement. They kept running the bead down.
Lu Li was agonized by them. He was about to reach the entrance to the Prison of Water, but he could not get rid of the two warriors. How could he enter the Prison of Water now? As soon as he left the Wicked Bead, they would kill him.
He had to turn around and took some detours, planning to shake the two off. He flew to the south. At the same time, he turned to the more than a dozen Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves and asked, “I see two old freaks in the Prison of Gold now. One is in a red robe, and the other one a green robe. I think they look like Taoist priests judging by their hairstyle. Do you know them?”
“The Deranged Taoist Pair!”
A Jun Family Earth Immortal Realm soul slave replied, “The two were once powerful warriors that belonged to a family of the Mage Imperial Universe. They are brothers and are equally wicked and merciless. They are vicious beyond measure. Many maidens were abused and killed by them. They fear nothing in their conduct. Even young ladies of the four major families of the Mage Imperial Universe were looted by them. Later on, two families there cooperated to beat their family. When their family broke down, they fled to the Prison of Gold. Now, they are the two most malicious freaks in here.”
“Okay, I see!”
A glint of killing intent rose in Lu Li’s eyes. He was not competent enough. If he had been, he would definitely kill such scumbags so that they could not bring disasters to the world anymore.
Four hours later, a golden mountain on the path suddenly burst open as a warrior rushed out. The warrior shouted from the distance, “You Deranged Taoist Pair, how dare you break into my land? Are you courting death?”
Lu Li was delighted to hear it. He slowed the Wicked Bead down and descended a little, maintaining a low profile. From afar rushed over an old man with white beard who noticed the Wicked Bead with psychic power. He seemed to be surprised but didn’t pay much attention. He went after the Deranged Taoist Pair.
The red-robed old man of the Deranged Taoist Pair shouted, “Mo Huanglin, we don’t have time to fool around with you today. We are merely going after the bead. If you want to have fun, the two of us will show you a good time later.”
Mo Huanglin appeared to be surprised again. He dashed over and reached out one hand, trying to grab the bead.
However, when he tried to drag the bead over, the bead stayed motionless. As a matter of fact, the bead continued to fly onward, dragging Mo Huanglin along.
“Wow!”
Mo Huanglin loosened his grip out of shock. With a glare, the bead sped up to the maximum. He came after the bead regardless of the fact that the Deranged Taoist Pair were still here. Just now, he paid too much attention to the Deranged Taoist Pair. Now that he had seen how miraculous the Wicked Bead was, naturally, he would go after the bead instead of the Deranged Taoist Pair.
“Sh*t…”
The situation afflicted Lu Li. Currently, three were chasing after him, and they were dumping all sorts of attacks on the bead. His original plan was to stir up a fight among the Semi-God Realm warriors and he could take advantage of the chaos and run away. When he reached the Prison of Water, he would be safe.
He didn’t expect that not only was there no fight, but he also had one more pursuer at his tail. Judging by the looks of it, the newly-added Mo Huanglin was stronger than the Deranged Taoist Pair. He should be a competent match to the Feng Family progenitor.
Three Semi-God Realm warriors in hot pursuit consumed the energy in the Wicked Bead quickly. Lu Li was not worried that the energy was going to run out. But if he were delayed too long, powerful warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe and the other universes might have a chance to act. In that case, he would have no escape.
Inside the Prison of Gold, he dared not to leave the Wicked Bead before he could get rid of the chasers. Once he left, he would be slashed to death. There was no Zen Mountain here. Once powerful warriors of Mage Imperial Universe and the other places took actions, there would be no living chance for Lu Li anymore.
“I must think of a way!”
Lu Li began to brainstorm. Several ideas came up, but he dismissed them all. He even though about sending some Earth Immortal Realm warriors out to distract the pursuers so he could have the chance to get to the Prison of Water.
But it was three Semi-God Realm warriors that were going after him. He could send out a dozen Earth Immortal Realm warriors, and they would be killed in a matter of seconds. He would not have enough time to get to the entrance to Prison of Water and those sent out by him would die in vain.
Time went by. Lu Li was becoming more and more impatient. Just now, by flying around, he had startled many people who might have sent messages back to their families. It was possible that the Mage Imperial Universe would send over an army soon.
“Wait a minute!”
An idea sprang up, which lit up his hope. He controlled the Wicked Bead to a sudden stop and let it hover in midair. “Are you courting death? How dare you come after me? If my master knows about this, he will skin you one by one.”
The voice from inside the Wicked Bead stunned the three who had thought that the Wicked Bead was something foreign or of an evil nature. They had believed that the Wicked Bead had a life of itself and did not expect that there was a person inside.
The matter centered on the Wicked Bead was known among the universes, but information was limited to those of a high level. Average disciples did not have the right to know. Therefore, the news had not come to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. The three warriors did not get the message.
“Master?”
Mo Huanglin’s looks turned cold as he asked, “Who is your master? Around the nine universes, only a few can skin me, Mo Huanglin. I would very much like to be acquainted with your master.”
Lu Li took out the Token of the Blood Emperor and replied, “My master is the celebrated Blood Emperor. How dare you go after me? My master will see to it that justice is served.”
“That blood freak?”
The Deranged Taoist Pair looked at each other, both terrified. The Blood Emperor was more than capable. The two would never be bold enough to offend him.
Mo Huanglin was startled as well. He had said that few could skin him in the world. Unfortunately, the Blood Emperor was one of them.
But soon, Mo Huanglin grinned. “Punk, are you lying to me? The Blood Emperor never take a protégé. You saying so does not make you his protégé.”
“The Blood Emperor is that intimidating?”
Once again, Lu Li was shown the influence of the Blood Emperor. Previously, he had used the name to scare those of the Leng Dynasty, and now, he did it go the three warriors. He sent the Token of the Blood Emperor out, and it was thrown to Mo Huanglin. He grabbed it and took a look, astonished.
The Deranged Taoist Pair also checked with psychic power. They were agonized to know that this was the authentic Token of the Blood Emperor. They now believed that Lu Li was really the Blood Emperor’s protégé. On second thought, they thought that only the Blood Emperor’s protégé could have such a powerful artifact.
Mo Huanglin contemplated about the situation. A moment later, he threw the token over. Lu Li sent an Earth Immortal Realm soul slave to get it and then took him back in.
“Since you are Blood Emperor’s protégé, I will let you go this time!”
Mo Huanglin waved his hand. The Blood Emperor had gone to explore the Prison of Soul, but he had not returned yet. The Token of the Blood Emperor was intact, which indicated that he was still alive.
The Blood Emperor should have successfully gone past the Prison of Soul since he had survived several years there. Once he could step into the Prison of Thunder, he could be the next one that would ascend up to the Divinity. A person of this kind was not to be provoked by Mo Huanglin.
“Run!”
Lu Li was overjoyed. He did not dare to linger on. He soon flew the Wicked Bead away in a blur toward the entrance to the Prison of Water and disappeared into the horizon.
