Chapter 323: Jiang Hao Died
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Yu Huashen and Little White came back!
Yu Huashen started his way back as soon as Lu Li broke the jade talisman. However, Lu Li and Ming Yu had taken so many detours that Yu Huashen made quite an effort to catch up even though Lu Li had left marks along the way.
"Squeak, squeak~"
Little White rushed into Lu Li’s arms and shouted happily. Han Yue was curious about Little White. Yu Huashen came over, bowed to Lu Li and said, "Young Master, I have come back too late. You have suffered."
"It’s fine~"
Lu Li waved his hand and then said to Yu Huashen, "How is Little White doing? Can it do anything if hundreds of Gargoyle Rats came at the same time?"
"Ha, ha~"
Yu Huashen gave Little White a thumb-up and said, "Even if there are tens of thousands of Gargoyle Rats coming, Little White can make them stop nearly 2000 feet away from us, not to mention hundreds."
"Alright, let’s go save people."
Lu Li waved his hand. Previously, he didn’t have the ability to save people. Now that Little White came back, he would want to go about to see if he could save some people, the more the better.
Lu Li asked Ming Yu to take Han Yue and Yu Huashen to take him and they began to wander about. Han Yue stared at Lu Li. She did not understand what Lu Li and Yu Huashen was saying. There was some amazing thing this little beast could do?
"Squeak, squeak~"
They were only 10 miles on the road when they were met with more than 10 Gargoyle Rats. This time, neither Ming Yu nor Yu Huashen did anything. Little White stood on Lu Li’s shoulder, raised its manes, let out strangely powerful qi and energy and made some threatening noises. All the Gargoyle Rats got down on all fours and were afraid to move.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li laughed. He waved his hand to let Ming Yu and Yu Huashen to move on. Han Yue’s mouth was wide open and stared at Little White in shock as if she had seen some horrific beast.
In the time for three incense sticks to burn, Yu Huashen paused and shouted, "There are somebody over there."
"Let’s go!"
Lu Li hurried over. There were a bunch of people running about madly and two warriors of the Eternal Realm were trying to stop the Gargoyle Rats.
"Come toward us!"
Lu Li saw that those men were running to all directions so he shouted. Yu Huashen added, "Gather around if you don’t want to die!"
"Whoosh, whoosh~"
People ran towards Lu Li. When they saw the two Noble Lord Realm warriors, they were so excited that they almost burst into tears.
Ming Yu came over, released Force to contain Gargoyle Rats and killed six or seven human rats. A young man saw Ming Yu killing one of them as he cried out, "Uncle, don’t kill my uncle!"
"That is not your uncle anymore!"
Lu Li threw him a cold glance and said, "Your uncle is gone. This is a human rat. He will kill the people alive."
Seeing his uncle was cut in half by Ming Yu, the young man collapsed to the ground on his knees and cried.
Relatives of several other killed human rats were also in misery. Lu Li, on the other hand, was not too emotional. Lu Ling had said that death was the ultimate ending of warriors. When one set path of Wu Dao, one must be aware that death could come at any time.
"Go!"
Making sure there was no more people around, Lu Li waved his hand and led the way with more than a dozen people following him. Little White continued to control the Gargoyle Rats with its qi and energy.
Lu Li did not want people to see Little White before, but he must save lives so he had to put that aside. The only one around here that was capable enough to take Little White was Jiang Hao. Judging by his conversation with Jiang Hao, Lu Li could tell that Jiang Hao was not such a man. Also, Jiang Hao was nowhere near so Lu Li decided not to worry about it.
Lu Li’s speed was slowed down with more than a dozen people following him. They would run into Gargoyle Rats frequently along the way but Little White was here so it was not an issue. None of the Gargoyle Rats dared to go after them.
By nightfall, Lu Li had picked up more than 50 people by going around. He also met the Han Family people. The two young masters survived but only half of the Han Family people lived. The battles were tragic.
There were many caves of ghosts erupting along the way. Fortunately, none of the caves appeared in places close to them.
There were many Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals in a lot of places but nobody dared to go and collect them. Lu Li was their only hope of survival now. Nobody dared to leave Lu Li now.
Yu Huashen was another story. As long as he saw Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals, he would go and collect them. He must have had a ton of them now.
"Let’s find a place and have a rest!"
It was getting darker. With Little White, they didn’t have to worry about Gargoyle Rats. They were so tired that Lu Li decided to let them sleep through the night.
They found a mountain. They just leaned against the foot of the mountain without even putting up a tent. Some of them had some water and prepared food stored in their Interspatial Ring. Food and water were passed around. People ate in silence.
Lu Li closed his eyes to have a rest, leaning against a rock. Little White crawled up in his arms. Yu Huashen was on the lookout and Ming Yu was having some rest.
It was dark—a night with dark clouds. The darkness in the surroundings made people nervous. It was suffocating and sulky. Rain must be coming.
"Boom~"
One hour later, a strike of lightning lit up the entire sky, then a thunder woke Lu Li up.
"There is a storm coming."
Lu Li murmured. But he didn’t take out a tent or dig a cave. Tents could not protect them against the storm and they would be full of water anyways. As for digging a cave… what if there happened to be a cave of ghost nearby? Nobody could run from that. Therefore, they must stay in the rain.
"Clattering~"
A moment later, it was raining cats and dogs. The rain was so heavy that people’s faces were hurt from the raindrops hitting on them. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A fierce gale sprang up. In the distance, purple steam rushed to the sky with glows lighting up the sky. It seemed nobody could sleep through the night.
‘’Ah, Brother Hao—"
Right at that moment, there came a miserable cry from the east. The loud shout with sorrow and fury in it resounded through heaven and earth. It came from afar but people over here with Lu Li could hear it clearly.
"Brother Hao? Jiang Hao?"
Lu Li and Yu Huashen looked at each other. Their pupils contracted. Judging by the shout, this person should be at the Noble Lord Realm. There were only three warriors of the Noble Lord Realm. Brother Hao was called… so Jiang Hao might have died.
"Come on~"
Lu Li got up. He wanted to go over there with Yu Huashen. But on second thoughts, Lu Li was worried what if those people met with Gargoyle Rats when he was gone?
Yu Huashen thought about it and said, "All of you, come with us."
None of them dared to air different opinions. They could not survive without Lu Li, Yu Huashen and Ming Yu. None of them dared to disagree. They ran towards the east in the night and in the rain.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
After the time for two incense sticks to burn, noises of explosions sent from the east. Lu Li and the others sped up. They climbed to a small mountain. A strike of lightning in the sky lit up the entire area. Lu Li and the others now could see clearly.
There weren’t too many people over there, only nine. Eight of them were fighting with Gargoyle Rats. There were many bodies lying around. There was a girl in red dress on her knees. She held a body in her arms and cried…
"Jiang Qiling!"
Lu Li recognized her right away. The place was devoured in darkness again after the lightning passed. Lu Li took the lead and rushed over with others. When they were close enough, there came another strike of lightning that lit up the area. Lu Li now could see everything.
There was only one Noble Lord Realm warrior Jiang Yan. He and Jiang Hong and several other warriors of the peak of Eternal Realm were still fighting. There were many Gargoyle Rats nearby, about 70 or 80 of them. There were 30 dead Gargoyle Rats and four or five dead human bodies.
Jiang Qiling was on her knees. She wore a red dress, which was was torn on the left, exposing her white thigh but she didn’t seem to notice it.
The body in her arms was Jiang Hao. He died. Jiang Qiling closed her eyes in pain. Tears dripped down from her chin with the rain.
She trembled, her hands shaking, and she murmured constantly, "Grandpa, grandpa, I am sorry. I am wrong. Wake up, wake up. I will behave from now long. As long as you can wake up, I will listen to you, everything, wake up, please…"
She murmured for a while, but there was no response. Jiang Qiling suddenly reached her arms out, raised her head and shouted miserably and hysterically, "Why, god, why are you treating me like this, why, tell me why—"
