"Boom, boom, boom~"

With more phantoms of hands bearing down, the glare of the shield began to die down. The shield was becoming thinner and the city was in bigger turmoil.

"Something is off…"

Lu Li, who had been observing from the distance, sensed something wrong. He couldn't remain seated after two hours. He whispered to a Noble Lord Realm warrior next to him and then sneaked toward the city on his own.

He hid in a ravine, inspecting the city with psychic power. It was chaotic. Civilians were screaming and shouting, running around. Children were crying, old people sobbing, as if the end of the world was upon them.

Warriors on the city wall appeared to be in a panic. They strode up and down on the city way and stared at Hu Lang in indignation and fear.

So far, nothing stood out. Lu Li then inspected further into the city and a castle caught his attention.

It was a luxurious mansion. Needless to say, it was the headquarters of the Palace of Black Tortoise. Naturally, the ones living here should be senior officials and core disciples. Lu Li noticed what was wrong at once.

There was no sight of the elderly, women or children in the Black Tortoise Hall. They must have been relocated, which was not surprising. The major families must have relocated their elderly, women and children as soon as the Yama City was destroyed.

What was surprising was that Lu Li found the Black Tortoise Hall not in chaos. Only some servants were panicking. The thousand warriors in there seemed to be gloomy and scared. Upon closer observation, however, Lu Li found that they showed no intention to run. They were ready to fight a desperate fight with Hu Lang.

The Teleportation Formation in the city glistened as more were teleported away. Warriors at the Black Tortoise Hall could have done the same so why hadn't they? Was everyone in the Black Tortoise Hall a hero and desired to die for the city?

Lu Li's psychic power was strong and it had been transformed by the divine energy. Now he could scan across the Black Tortoise Hall easily.

"Eh?"

He noticed a castle. A familiar face was in there. But he soon realized that he didn't know that person.

That was a beautiful young lady in her early twentieth at the later stage of the Noble Lord Realm. She was wearing a red dress and red earrings, like balls of flames.

She could be as beautiful as Lu Ling. The young lady was elegant and dignified, appearing to be a queen, standing high above the masses. But she could not hide her sexual appeal in her eyes. She was enticing.

She was enjoying tea comfortably in the castle. Standing next to her was a bald old man and two handsome young masters. Lu Li didn't worry too much about the three men after he confirmed that they were only of the Noble Lord Realm.

"Ji Mengtian!"

Lu Li trembled. He remembered how she looked familiar. She looked very much like Ji Mengtian. No wonder he felt he had seen her somewhere.

A name sprang to Lu Li's mind, Ji Mengyao.

Lu Li had heard that the Samsara Palace sent over a very powerful young lady and she charmed the future family patriarchs of the two forces at the south. In the end, she facilitated the cooperation between to the two forces and their invasion to the Clouds Plains.

This young lady was not at the Clouds Plains or the Samsara Palace. Why was she here?

Lu Li had a stronger sense of danger. He suddenly took a look at the shield which was about to collapse. He called over a Noble Lord Realm warrior and told him to have Hu Lang retreat!

Ji Mengyao was here, sitting in comfort. Lu Li would not believe that there was no scheme!

He had tasted how sinister Ji Mengtian was. She could trap him and Jiang Qiling before they knew it. This Ji Mengyao should be crueler than Ji Mengtian. Lu Li could not afford to be careless.

Lu Ling only told him and Hu Lang to create some chaos. They didn't have to concern too much about the loss of one city. If they could not tackle this city, they could go to another.

"Whoosh~"

A Noble Lord Realm warrior from the Wolf Mountain flew up while Lu Li withdrew slowly, ready to retreat at any time.

But Lu Li was annoyed—Hu Lang didn't stop after he received the warning. He continued his actions. It seemed that he was unwilling to let go now that the shield was about to crack open. Or, he was confident about his abilities and he didn't sense the presence of any Human Sovereign Realm warriors in the city…

"Boom!"

Finally, the shield broke. Hu Lang then smashed at the Teleportation Formations in the city plaza with a phantom of hand he generated.

"Boom!"

The entire city shook. A hand print appeared in the plaza. The ground sunk deep. When the bigger Teleportation Formations were smashed, those near them were broken as well.

"Charge!"

Hu Lang yelled. Once again, he generated a phantom of hand and aimed at a mansion in the Black Tortoise Hall. There were many disciples of the Black Tortoise Hall and hundreds of Noble Lord Realm warriors. With this move, nearly half of the disciples would perish.

"Hmm~"

Someone made a sound. The bald old man flew up from a castle and hit against the hand phantom in midair with his fist.

He had leveraged strength from heaven and earth in his move. Xuan Energy in heaven and earth were converging on his fist. A huge golden phantom appeared and it collapsed against the hand phantom moving down.

"Boom~"

Space in midair shook. The phantoms collapsed. A horrifying vibration wave spread to all directions, causing many castles to fall down. Many warriors flew out from the castles.

"Human Sovereign Realm warrior?"

Hu Lang was startled, looking at the bald old man. Hu Lang had sensed his bald old man and was convinced that he was only at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. When did he become a Human Sovereign Realm warrior? And he was also at the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm.

"Whoosh~"

From the castle, Ji Mengyao flew out and landed on another castle. Some other handsome young masters flew out from nearby castles, standing next to Ji Mengyao and looked at Hu Lang in midair with a sneer.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"

Some noises came, piercing through the sky. The scout sent by Lu Li came back in terror, yelling from the distance, "Ambush!"

Lu Li's mind was weighed down. He looked toward the crowds. There were at least 1000 Noble Lord Realm warriors swarming over, which dismayed Lu Li even more.

This was a trap. Someone had laid down the trap waiting for them and this someone had known they were coming to the Black Tortoise City.

But Lu Li was confused. Only one warrior of the middle stage of the Human Sovereign Realm, 1000 Noble Lord Realm and hundreds of thousands of regular warriors could make Lu Li, Hu Lang and their warriors perish here?

"Let's go~"

Now that they were surrounded, it was pointless to hide in the shadows. Lu Li signaled for all their warriors to fly up toward Hu Lang.

Hu Lang didn't take further actions. He stared at the bald old man and said in a cold voice, "You are not from the Serenity Plains. Are you from the Samsara Palace? Is the Samsara Palace trying to interfere in the conflict between the Clouds Plains and the Serenity Plains?"

Hu Lang had learned of all the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Serenity Plains years ago. This bald old man was not familiar. He could not have been from the Serenity Plains.

The bald old man didn't make a move, either. He said with a smile, "You must have heard about me. I am from the Solar Dragon Island. I am Recluse Solar Dragon."

"You!"

Hu Lang was consumed with the urge to kill. He yelled coldly, "Recluse Solar Dragon, this is between the Serenity Plains and the Clouds Plains. Why are you helping a villain do evil? Are you not afraid that after we win this war, we will turn the Solar Dragon Island upside down?"
