Lu Li was relieved to see that Jiang Qiling was alive.
If she was killed, he would not forgive himself for the rest of his life. It was because he went to the base camp of the Barbarian Race, he was one day and a half late. Also, Jiang Qiling had left the base camp because of him.
Looking at her paper-pale face and the blood on her neck, Lu Li could not keep down the surge of killing intent within him. He was even angrier than when Lu Suan tried to trap and kill him.
To hurt him or even kill him was fine. But he could not condone anyone trying to hurt his woman.
Lu Li didn't have to think hard to know that they were hurting Jiang Qiling to get to him. Jiang Qiling was the future chosen warrior after all and those warriors were average disciples. If they were not trying to save Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan and the others, how would they have the courage to take actions against the future chosen warrior?
Lu Hongyu glanced to the crowd and sensed the killing intent within Lu Li. She told him in a hurry, "Lu Li, show mercy. Some of them are from the Palace of Blue Lions and Palace of Gods."
"Do they have anything to do with me?" Lu Li asked back, "I will kill anyone who dare to fight Jiang Qiling, be them from the Palace of Blue Lions or the Palace of Gods or even the Lu Family!"
"Bang!"
Lu Li pushed Lu Hongyu and Ye Luo off from his Fate Wheel and rushed on in a blur. He generated dozens clones in midair while he unsheathed his saber. He charged toward the more than 200 warriors in front of him.
"Ah?"
Those warriors could not see through Lu Li's clones. They were frightened to see dozens of versions of a furious Lu Li who enjoyed a reputation of being able to defeat the allied forces of four alien races on his own and captured Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, Lu Suan, Lu Ni and Die Feiyu. Ji Mengtian had Quasi Relic. So, how powerful was Lu Li on earth?
"Buzzing!"
Soon, they were able to see with their own eyes Lu Li's abilities. His strong psychic power morphed into endless golden needles. The dozens warriors in front of Lu Li himself stopped. Lu Li waved his saber and seven or eight were beheaded.
"That soul attack is powerful, impressive!"
In the distance on a small hill, Ye Luo saw how one after another was beheaded. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Hongyu, your cousin's soul attack can now influence warriors of the Noble Lord Realm easily. Only those with very powerful protection can be immune. Did…your Great Patriarch teach him this?"
"I don't know!" Lu Hongyu answered, shaking her head, "But…it is possible. Great Patriarch has withdrawn from society and living on the Buddhist Mountain in order to protect Lu Li. He is detached from our family matters. It is likely that he has gone to the Northern Desert secretly to teach Lu Li soul attacks."
"Alas!"
Seeing Lu Li kill two warriors from the Palace of Blue Lions, Lu Hongyu felt that it was too cruel to watch. She turned around and said, "Everything about Lu Li is good but he is too cruel. I know the more than 200 warriors cannot be forgiven but Lu Li will be held accountable by the Demon-slaying Hall for his ferocious killing. After all, it is forbidden to kill our own kind."
"Hmm!"
Ye Luo smiled and said, "To kill one man is a sin, to kill 10,000 is a hero and to kill a million is even more so. All the old guys at the Demon-slaying Hall once had their hands soaked in blood. It is not wrong for a man to kill with reason. If you were encircled, I would kill for you as well. I don't care…if there were 200 or 20,000 of them!"
"Pff!"
Lu Hongyu spit into air and said with faked anger, "Are you cursing me? If I was surrounded and you didn't come in time, I would have died in vain."
Even though she seemed to be blaming him, she was clearly touched. Her eyes were sparkling and her cheeks were rosy. Lu Hongyu was an enchanting beauty for sure.
"Run—"
On the other side, many warriors were in a panic and began to escape. Lu Li was too fast in his way of murdering. In the time for just a few breaths, 30 or 40 had been beheaded. There was nothing that could stop Lu Li. Nobody stood a chance. Anyone that were near Lu Li was slayed.
There were three hwo knew fleeing wouldn't work given how fast Lu Li was. They dropped to their knees on the ridge and yelled, "Young Master Li, we are from the Palace of Blue Lions. Our father knows Lord Renhuang. Please be the bigger man and forgive us."
"Know my father?"
Lu Li looked at them with his reddened eyes and said with a sneer, "In this case, you deserve to die even more. Do I have to tell you the connection between Jiang Qiling and I? You know our relationship and you are still doing this to her. Don't you deserve to die?"
"Whoosh!"
With that said, Lu Li's golden needles of psychic power pierced into their heads while Lu Li swung his divine weapon of Dragon King simultaneously. Three heads were cut off with eyes wide open in everlasting regret.
"Relationship?"
Jiang Qiling's pale face blushed when she heard the word. Lu Li practically was announcing that she was his publicly. She felt both shy and happy.
"Young Lady, let's step back."
Jiang Hu flew over to her side. Even though everyone was fleeing, this was a battlefield nonetheless. What if someone took risks in desperation?
"No need!" Jiang Qiling never turned her looks away from Lu Li. She continued with a gentle smile, "Lu Li is here. Nobody can hurt us now."
"Alright!"
Jiang Hu stood next to her. Seeing her tender and gentle looks, he felt downcast and heartbroken. The pearl of the Pavilion of Delicacy, the girl that he had been having a crush on for three years, could not become his lover before he even had a chance to confess his love.
He saw how Lu Li was dashing into the crowd like a fierce tiger springing down from the top of a mountain and how he was killing men after men. At this moment, Jiang Hu felt it reasonable that he lost Jiang Qiling to him. Only a man like Lu Li could deserve Jiang Qiling.
In the time for half an incense stick to burn!
In the time for merely half an incense stick to burn, more than half of the 200 warriors were slayed. The rest were fleeing to all directions. Lu Li threw Jiang Qiling a glance and began to chase after them. He had been harboring some anger. Originally, he desired to vent his anger on Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan and the gang but he had to spare them. Now he had a chance to use the 200 warriors as an outlet.
Lu Li was too fast. He caught up with those that were among the first to run after a short while. Nobody was fighting back and nobody could. Before they could take any actions, they were already under Lu Li's soul attacks.
Lu Li had made up his mind to kill every participant in this action. But he had underestimated some of them. There were some underground caves to which Yang Qi and Ji Nu had disappeared into.
Lu Li came back after two hours!
He had lost count of how many he had killed. It should be above 200. Some managed to flee, about 20 or 30 of them. He was worried about Jiang Qiling so he didn't go after them.
Jiang Qiling, Jiang Hu, Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu were waiting near the battlefield. Lu Li came back with guilt. Jiang Qiling greeted him with a light smile and hopped onto Lu Li's Fate Wheel.
Even though there were people around, Lu Li still hugged her and said, "I am sorry that I have come late. You have suffered."
"It's okay."
Jiang Qiling sighed and said, "But those warriors who came with me were lost. It's a pity that all of them were dead. Luckily, you have avenged them."
"Some ran away!"
Lu Li said with pity and added, "Don't worry. If they even dare to show up, I will kill them. The gate will be open in a month. They will have to leave, right?"
"Leave?"
Jiang Qiling had heard something from Ye Luo and Lu Hongyu. Jiang Qiling sighed again and said, "It's easy to leave but I am afraid the Demon-slaying City will not be in peace. Lu Li, you have tormented Ji Mengtian and the others. When they get out, they will make so much trouble."
"Trouble?"
Lu Li scorned, "If their families dare to make me trouble, I will let them stay in the Ding of Barbarian God for their entire lives. If they riled me, I would blast the Ding of Barbarian God and bomb them to death!"
