“Boom!”
Once again, Li Qiang was smashed away. Lu Li and the immortal’s body made a good team. The Slayer’s move could contain Li Qiang. The immortal’s body was so fast that there was no time for Li Qiang to move away.
“Stop it. Li Lu, stop!”
Lu Li had to admit that Li Qiang was strong. The immortal’s body had punched his head twice and he was still breathing.
Li Qiang yelled hysterically, “Li Lu, stop. Otherwise, Commander Ye will not spare you. Stop it! Anyone here? Help. Li Lu is attacking a prefecture warrior. He is trying to kill me!”
“Whoosh~”
Lu Li heard some humming noises coming from the distance. Lu Li’s mind was weighed down. Some prefecture warrior was alarmed by Li Qiang’s shout. If two more prefecture warriors came over, then Lu Li would not be able to leave alive.
“Lu Li, do not kill me!”
Seeing that the immortal’s body was coming again, Li Qiang said humbly, instead of shouting, “Lu Li, I can agree to anything as long as you can spare my life. I will try my best to protect you and pretend that none of this happens. From now on, I will not give you any inconvenience. As a matter of fact, I will give you many Divine Sources. But if you kill me, you will only have one option, that is to escape...”
“Kill them!”
Lu Li pulled a long face. He was determined. He would not buy Li Qiang’s lies. When the two prefecture warriors came from nearby areas, Li Qiang would work with them to kill Lu Li.
“Boom!”
The immortal’s body landed another punch on Li Qiang’s head. This time, Li Qiang could not stand it. His head was crushed, and the Relic armor took off automatically, floating in the air.
“Immortal’s body, take me away!”
Upon killing Li Qiang, Lu Li only had the time to take his Interspatial Ring. He didn’t get the Relic armor and weapon. He commanded all the Stone Golems to come at the two prefecture warriors while the immortal’s body took him away from the mountain.
“Deaf Taoist, come back! You will die here if you don’t.”
The immortal’s body flew away quickly in the air toward the Deaf Taoist. Lu Li shouted to him when he was near.
“Whoosh~”
The Deaf Taoist freed himself from the fight against the demonist. The former dashed toward Lu Li and vanished into between his eyebrows.
“Get out!”
Lu Li pointed his saber forward and instructed the immortal’s body. Killing a prefecture warrior was a felony. Lu Li knew that if he could not run away immediately, he would never make it out alive.
The immortal’s body was fast. In the time for two blinks, they had made out from the mountain, leaving the two prefecture warriors behind.
“Stop Li Lu. He has killed a prefecture warrior!”
One of the prefecture warriors coming shouted. There was a crowd of slaves and a prefecture warrior outside the mountain. If Lu Li could be stalled for the time for one breath, the two prefecture warriors would make it.
“Eh...”
There were over a dozen slaves and a prefecture warrior out here. Seeing Lu Li charging forward and hearing the shout, they were all astonished.
Among the dozen were some immortals that ascended at the same time as Lu Li. They stared at Lu Li in complete shock. ‘How ferocious was Lu Li? How dare he killed a prefecture warrior? What was he doing?’
“Stop it!”
The prefecture warrior out here reacted quickly. He flew up. Pointing his spear at Lu Li, he yelled, “Stop or suffer the consequences!”
“Out of my way!”
The saber shone brightly in Lu Li’s hand. “No one stands in my way!” He bellowed.
This was a critical juncture. Lu Li would murder anyone, even if it were Commander Ye, not to mention just a prefecture warrior. Stopping meant that he would lose his life.
“Swish~”
A ray of blood-red sword light was glaring. That prefecture warrior was about to strike when he could see nothing but red in a world of blood.
But that prefecture warrior had a strong soul. He came back to his senses instantly. He wiggled to disperse the force that was containing him. He ignored the blood-red ray of sword light and tried to stab at Lu Li.
“Immortal’s body, stop him!”
Lu Li said to Blood Fairy. The immortal’s body turned around and used his back to ward off the strike.
“Boom!”
The immortal’s body was smashed away by over a hundred feet. That prefecture warrior was forced back by thousands of feet by the ray of sword light. The immortal’s body took the hit and Lu Li was not injured at all. He was just having a difficult time breathing due to the overwhelming energy.
“Move!”
Lu Li knew he could not waste more time here. The immortal’s body took Lu Li and flew out madly. The slaves came back to their senses. They began to pretend to attack Lu Li.
Nobody dared to resort to real violence. Lu Li could kill other immortals and he smashed away a prefecture warrior in one blow. The slaves believed they would have to be bored with living to go and intercept Lu Li.
“Li Lu!”
One of the two prefecture warriors coming from behind bellowed, “You cannot hide. Once you are wanted, the hunting team of the prefecture will go after you. You won’t last months!”
Lu Li instructed the immortal’s body to take him away regardless. The immortal’s body was faster than the prefecture warriors, but they kept going nonetheless.
Lu Li did not specifically choose a path. The immortal’s body just flew in a straight line. Now, the priority for Lu Li was to get rid of the prefecture warriors chasing him. The other matters would have to be dealt with later.
“Blood Fairy, well done!”
Noting that the prefecture warriors were lagging behind, Lu Li felt he could breathe again.
Blood Fairy had taken over most of the formations in the immortal’s body. His abilities were boosted, and his speed was accelerated. Lu Li would not have been able to run away relying only on his speed.
But Lu Li could not let his guard down. The immortal’s body dashed on. Though the immortal’s body was only dozens of feet above the ground, flying was faster than running on the ground. Given this, Lu Li could get rid of the prefecture warriors.
“Blood Fairy, turn to the left!”
Lu Li vaguely remembered that the Mountain of Vicissitudes was toward the right, so he told the immortal’s body to go left.
Who could tell when the fight at the Sect of Supernatural Beings would come to an end? If the fight would end soon, Commander Ye could instruct prefecture warriors to go after Lu Li in Beasts of the Void which were faster than the immortal’s body. Lu Li could not keep going in a straight line.
Lu Li was fortunate in the sense that the fight at the Sect of Supernatural Beings was still going on. Otherwise, even with the immortal’s body, Lu Li escaping would be asking for the moon. Commander Ye could find Lu Li in a few hours by sending out some Beasts of the Void to all sides.
The wind was blowing. The mountains were moving backward in his eyes. Lu Li could see a forest coming up in front of him. The haze was thick, and Lu Li could not see clearly.
That during this moment, he felt at a loss. He did not regret killing Li Qiang. He just wondered what he should do now.
Without the identity of a citizen, he could not go into any cities. Soon, he would be wanted by the prefecture warriors and the hunting teams would be dispatched to chase after him in all corners...
The Divinity was vast. The world was boundless. Yet, Lu Li could not find any place to rest. He didn’t even know where to go.
The only thing he was sure of was that he must leave the Vicissitude House. But how large was the sphere of influence of Vicissitude House? Which way should he go to leave the sphere of influence?
It was getting darker as if rain was going to pour down. It was a complete blur, just like Lu Li’s mind.
For the first time, he felt that the Divinity was such a strange place as if he were abandoned by the entire world.
