Chapter 1187: Oath

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Led by warriors, millions of people stayed close to the wall as they fled out of the city. Lu Li heard Yan Tiangang’s words but did not do anything in reaction.

For him, few of the millions could make it alive. Even if they were not attacked by the Semi-God Realm warriors outside the city, they would be hunted down and doom would come sooner or later. Yan Family had offended too many families. So many warriors from the nine universes had sacrificed their lives in the Divine Imperial City. This was deep-seated hatred caused by blood-debt.

The top priority for Lu Li now was to break into the Divine Imperial Castle to destroy the altar and statue, or else Yan Tiangang would take away the Wicked Bead.

One thing confused Lu Li was how Yan Tiangang would bring the Wicked Bead to the Divinity when it was his avatar that was trying to take control of the Wicked Bead? Was he going to let the Wicked Bead fly up to the Divinity?

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Since he could not figure it out, it was best that he stopped thinking at all. Lu Li focused his mind to strike the Divine Imperial Castle time after time while Blood Fairy was rapidly turning off the formation inside the castle.

The three million had made it outside the city. The Deaf Taoist, Blazing Huo, and others had noticed. They were ready and in a violent mood to not let anyone of the millions go.

“Buzzing!”

Xuan Qi outside the city suddenly began to gather. Following that, an illusion emerged. It was another Yan Tiangang.

“Space Confinement!”

As soon as this avatar of Yan Tiangang appeared, he slapped the sky. The void began to tremble. Many cracks were reaching to the distance. The sky looked like a broken mirror.

When the cracks spread out, they did not vanish. Instead, they froze in space. The dozens of Semi-God Realm warriors, including Blazing Huo, the Deaf Taoist, and Lu Renhuang found themselves unable to move.

Yan Tiangang employed a stunning effort to confine the space nearby and immobilize the warriors in the air.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”

Several patriarchs of the Yan Family each led a group and left from different city gates. Under the guidance of Yan Tiangang, they flew away as soon as they went out. The space here was not confined. Yan Tiangang left them a way out.

The Deaf Taoist and the others watched, unable to move at all, as the millions dashed out of the Divine Imperial City and ran to all sides in dozens of groups.

Yan Tiangang’s avatar outside the city began to disappear. But the Space Confinement was still in effect. The warriors outside still could not move as they watched the three million vanished into the horizon.

“Buzzing~”

After the time for one incense stick to burn, from Lu Renhuang’s body spread out a stream of white air that was spreading out, icing an area within a radius of a couple of miles.

“Go—”

Lu Renhuang said one word. The iced space began to crack. In an instant, everyone could move and the cracks in space began to cease.

Blazing Huo threw a wicked look to the other Semi-God Realm warriors. They charged to different sides like angry lions. They were all harboring some anger. They would not calm down until they had driven away and exterminated every one of the Yan Family.

Lu Renhuang did not join in the pursuit. Blazing Huo and the Deaf Taoist stayed as well. Yan Family only had four patriarchs that were not quite capable. The other Semi-God Realm warriors from Lu Li’s side had gone hunting down the enemies. Those that fled could no longer escape their doom…

Time moved on. It was still a stalemate. Lu Renhuang was becoming impatient. The Divine Imperial Castle was at the heart of the Divine Imperial City. If Lu Li could not turn off the formation and Yan Tiangang took away the Wicked Bead, then he would be in immense trouble.

“Lu Li!”

Yan Tiangang inside the city suddenly spoke. Looking at Lu Li who was striking the Divine Imperial City, Yan Tiangang said, “How about we have a talk?”

Lu Li knew that Yan Tiangang’s intention was to buy some time, so he did not stop as he glared at Yan Tiangang with contempt and said, “What do you want?”

“First, let your warriors stop their pursuit.”

Yan Tiangang came straight to the point. “Soon, you will ascend to the Divinity, right? Basically, all the immortals coming to the Divinity will land at southern Divinity. I am a patriarch in the township of the Black Dragon Mansion at Southern Divinity, which you are well-aware of. If you offend me, you will have difficult days in the Southern Divinity. I will hunt you down by leveraging the force in Black Dragon Mansion. You will not be able to move an inch in Southern Divinity. I know the location of dozens of Ascending Stands. I will be informed as soon as you ascend to the Divinity. If you can agree to my terms, I will swear to the almighty god that our past resentment will be water under the bridge. What do you think?”

Yan Tiangang was being sincere. Such oaths were the most solemn ones. If Lu Li agreed, then Yan Tiangang would not be able to hunt him down when he ascended to the Divinity.

Lu Li sneered inside. He did not tell He Yue to stop the Semi-God Realm warriors outside the city from hunting down the Yan Family people. Lu Li himself did not cease from releasing the Slayer’s move, either. He only said calmly, “Tell me your terms first. If they were too outrageous, then the talk is off the table.”

Yan Tiangang appeared to be impatient. He said after a short moment, “First of all, the Wicked Bead has to become mine. You cannot tap into the full potential of it. The precious stone lands its innocent possessor in jail. You must have heard about it. The Wicked Bead will bring you tons of trouble when you go to the Divinity. I can promise that I will give you three top-grade Relics and one hundred thousand Divine Sources as compensation. Second, let us put the past behind us. Divine Imperial City must return to the Yan Family. Naturally… I can let the Yan Family be allies with your family. You can work together and develop. Third, when you come to the Divinity, I will send someone to pick you up. You can join the Black Dragon Mansion. I will introduce you to a super-mighty warrior in the Divinity and let him take you as a protégé. That being said… the prerequisite is that you must let me study the Immortal’s body for some time! I can swear on all those terms. If I broke my promises, I would be struck to death by lightning!”

Yan Tiangang provided good offers. He even said he would be struck to death by lightning if he broke his promises. But to this, Lu Li snorted.

Yan Tiangang was talking nonsense. He wanted both the Wicked Bead and the Immortal’s body. Was he toying with Lu Li like a child?

Since Yan Tiangang was talking, Lu Li thought he might just as well take the chance to stall. So, Lu Li chatted with Yan Tiangang for a bit. After a pause, Lu Li replied, “I cannot agree because you are asking for too much. You can introduce me to a super-mighty warrior in the Divinity? Do you have the ability? Do you really know a super-mighty warrior in the Divinity?”

“Of course!”

Yan Tiangang said with discontent, “The Chief of Black Dragon Mansion is a super-mighty warrior in the Divinity. He is among the top 9000 in the Divinity and well-known in the Southern Divinity. I also know another super-mighty warrior that has retired from society and I am on good terms with him. Lu Li… you are so young, and you are going to ascend to the Divinity. How talented. Even super-mighty warrior in the Divinity will value such talent as you. It will not be difficult for them to take you as protégé if I act as the middleman for you.”

“Lord, it’s off!”

At that moment, Lu Li suddenly heard a voice in his mind. He was overjoyed because he noticed the Wicked Bead was still his and the spiritual link was still there.

Looking at Yan Tiangang, Lu Li grinned. “Yan Tiangang, sorry… I will have to forget all the things you have said just now. I will destroy the Yan Family for sure and when I go to the Divinity, I will kill you in person. Be prepared!”

“Buzzing~”

With that said, the Divine Imperial Castle began to glow. The golden shield vanished. The Immortal’s body punched on the wall which collapsed and flew toward Yan Tiangang’s statue.

“Yes, sure, of course!”

From Yan Tiangang’s eyes unleashed a blazing rage. He knew it was too late to say anything now. Nobody could change Lu Li’s ideas and Yan Tiangang’s avatar was going to disappear soon.

Staring at Lu Li violently, Yan Tiangang said, “Lu Li, today, I swear, solemnly, that when you come to the Divinity, I will kill you within 10 years. If I cannot, I, Yan Tiangang… will no longer consider myself a decent guy in the world!”

“Boom!”

In the Divine Imperial Castle, the Immortal’s body punched on the statue. That huge statue of Yan Tiangang fell into pieces and Yan Tiangang’s avatar vanished in the air quickly…
