Chapter 342: Surrender
Chapter 342: Surrender
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Song He, the warrior at the later stage of the Noble Lord Realm, died. His head was still rolling around on the ground with eyes wide open, filled with shock and confusion. Till the last moment of his life, Song He still could not believe that he died in the hands of a young man of the Soul Pond Realm, a child of only 16 or 17 years old.
For Song He, Lu Li was like an infant. Warriors at the later stage of Noble Lord Realm had long lives so teenagers were basically babies for them. The attacks from a Soul Pond Realm warrior were regarded as only tickling by Song He.
Ming Yu could not believe what was going on, either. He had been focusing on the situation over here. Lu Li had a powerful Bloodline Skill—the handsome beast claw could tear apart Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact. Ming Yu knew this and he also knew that Lu Li could crush the body of any warrior of the Noble Lord Realm.
That being said—
Noble Lord Realm warriors should react very quickly. Normally speaking, Lu Li would have been killed before he could even make his move.
At first, Ming Yu didn't send out his psychic power. Since he was smashed into the mountain, he could not see the top, either. He only sent out his psychic power after Lu Li asked him to use his Force.
Naturally, Ming Yu sensed the clones of Lu Li, but there was one problem. Ming Yu could not tell which one was the real one anymore.
What did it mean?
It meant that Lu Li had mastered the skill of the demon, he had understood the Mirror Image Profound Meaning and he had the cloning skill that could confused even Noble Lord Realm warriors.
Even so, Ming Yu’s head was still in the clouds. How did Lu Li kill Song He? After all, warriors at the later stage of Noble Lord Realm were powerful in all accounts. Even if Lu Li had the demon's skill and his freaky Bloodline Skill, Song He should have been able to dodge easily.
As a matter of fact!
Song He died more of his arrogance than Lu Li's moves. The moment Lu Li moved, Song He didn't even think of leaving or dodging as he thought a warrior of the Soul Pond Realm could not hurt him.
Lu Li tried to attack Song He from behind when the latter had the sense of danger. Song He, at that moment, still did not run—he wanted to find the real Lu Li and him.
It was like a strong guy who saw a baby walking towards him with a wooden sword. The strong guy was not afraid at all. When the baby stabbed at him with the wooden sword, the strong guy still didn't move backwards as he didn't believe this wooden sword would hurt him. However, the wooden sword was so sharp that it could cut clean through iron. The baby pierced the strong guy's heart in one move...
At the last moment, Ming Yu and Little White cooperate with Lu Li quite well. Otherwise, Lu Li would be killed by Song He soon. Granted, Song He's heart was crushed, but the one final angry move from a warrior of the Noble Lord Realm was not something Lu Li could survive from.
"Whew, whew~"
Lu Li panted. He had also felt the danger of death as he had taken great risk this time.
He wanted to run away using this skill. At the last critical moment, he was lucky enough to master the Mirror Image Profound Meaning and to successfully combine it with Apparition. However, he was not very skilled at it yet. Therefore, he could only generate more than 10 clones.
He could have run, after all, the more than 10 clones were enough to confuse Song He. In the end, he still chose to take the risk and kill Song He.
If he had run, Ming Yu would have to die!
After panting for a moment, Lu Li wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, smiled at Little White and said, "Little White, well done."
"Squeak, squeak~"
Little White was so excited, like a child that had been praised.
Lu Li put away Song He's saber, took Song He's Interspatial Ring off and then put Song He's head in his ring as well.
"Whoosh~"
Lu Li flew over and dug Ming Yu out from the cave. He fed Ming Yu healing pellets, looked at him and asked with a straight face, "Are you okay?"
Ming Yu looked into Lu Li's eyes. Ming Yu understood what Lu Li meant. After a moment of consideration, Ming Yu made up his mind. He took out a chariot from his ring onto which Lu Li and Ming Yu boarded. Then Ming Yu controlled the chariot to fly back to where they had come.
That was right!
Lu Li didn't choose to run away. He had chosen to go back. Ming Yu knew what Lu Li was thinking—Lu Li wanted to go back and save Yu Huashen. If they could not kill that warrior of the Noble Lord Realm of the Song Family there, they could at least save Yu Huashen.
Yu Huashen was Lu Li's slave. They were once enemies, but after such a long time, Lu Li's hatred towards Yu Huashen had vanished. Instead, they had developed a sense of emotional attachment.
Just now, Yu Huashen threw Lu Li to Ming Yu and stayed behind with no hesitation. Lu Li was touched. He had now taken Yu Huashen as his friend.
Lu Li wanted to take a risk for Yu Huashen. Lu Li was now more powerful than ever. If he was careful enough, Song Qiao could not kill him.
When the Mirror Image Profound Meaning was combined with Apparition, Lu Li could generate more than 10 vivid clones. That and the Blood Claw Skill gave Lu Li the confidence to fight back. He was also empowered by the fact that he had killed Song He.
The most critical element was that warriors from the Palace of Aries should be here soon. There was great hope that Lu Li and Ming Yu could save Yu Huashen if they went over and stall some time.
Of course, this would be a dangerous journey. After all, Ming Yu was heavily injured and Lu Li's realm was low. It was possible that they might be killed.
Since Lu Li was determined, Ming Yu decided to respect Lu Li's will. Ming Yu knew Lu Li. Anything Lu Li decided on would have to be done. There was no talking him out of it.
Granted, Ming Yu had serious wounds, but he could still release Force on the chariot. If it went wrong, he could stall Song Qiao so that Lu Li could have a chance to run.
They returned the same way they came. They hadn't gone far from the beginning. In a short while, they had arrived at the battle field.
"Good, good!"
From the distance, Lu Li and Ming Yu could already hear Yu Huashen's shouts. As long as Yu Huashen was alive, there was hope. If he was injured, he could be cured. Even lost limbs could grow back when they found some elixirs.
"Young Master, let's take a look first. Don't rush into anything. I think warriors of the Palace of Aries will be here shortly."
Lu Li nodded yes. He couldn’t risk Ming Yu’s life in order to save Yu Huashen.
Ming Yu controlled the chariot to lower a bit and go through the mountains in a silent way. Then they hid behind a mountain and listened on to monitor the situation.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The situation was not looking good. There were noises of explosion, accompanied by muffled screams of Yu Huashen. Later on, Yu Huashen angrily screamed like a trapped beast.
"Kill me if you have balls. Kill me!"
Yu Huashen yelled. Lu Li and Yu Huashen looked at each other. Yu Huashen was not in a good shape. He was desperate.
Song Qiao’s sound came soon, "Ha, ha, ha, I will grant your wishes. I will suck up all your vitality and turn you into a mummy."
"Move!"
Lu Li could not wait any longer. He looked at Ming Yu who flew the chariot to the battlefield in a speed as fast as a shooting star.
The moment they were out of the mountain, Ming Yu and Lu Li looked towards Yu Huashen. They saw a net weaved by vines. Yu Huashen was in there and screaming.
When Lu Li and Ming Yu showed up, both Yu Huashen and Song Qiao scanned over with psychic power. Yu Huashen shouted again, "Young Master, don’t mind me. Run!"
Song Qiao was surprised. Didn’t Song He go over to kill Lu Li and Ming Yu? How could they have escaped from Song He’s pursuit?
"Run? Where to?"
Lu Li looked gloomy. He looked at Song Qiao and said, "There are Song Family people everywhere. We cannot run anymore. Lord, let my man out. We surrender. We will go back to the Song Family…"
Ming Yu’s blood-covered face showed shock. He soon came to his senses and said, "Yu Huashen, don’t fight back anymore. We are not powerful enough. Let’s surrender."
