Leave one warrior on each side. Once Lu Li made a move, at least three Semi-God Realm warriors could activate the Inhibition Formations. The billions of humans would be turned into ashes in an instant.
What was the difference between this and the original conditions?
Yan Gu had a good plan.
Naturally, Lu Li could not accept such terms. He would not only have to give away the Wicked Bead, but he would also be under the control of others. They could turn against him and kill him at any time.
"No!"
Lu Li refused decisively, "We cannot leave one on each side. Only one or two at the City of Heaven's Roars. They can stay and monitor me.
Otherwise, who can guarantee that the Semi-God Realm cultivators of the other three cities won't go on a killing spree after you leave? "
"Leave one or two behind?"
Yan Gu rejected the idea. Even if Fang Rui and the others stayed, Lu Li could still kill them in an instant, let alone one or two.
What was the difference between staying or not staying?
As soon as they left, Lu Li would kill Fang Rui and the others and then go after them. By then, they would have no way to keep Lu Li in check.
Once again, the two sides were in a stalemate. Nobody was willing to give in. After a while, Lu Li suddenly flew the Wicked Bead to the distance. He said coldly, "Yan Gu, if you want the Wicked Bead, you must leave. You must ensure the safety of humans at the Great Land.
When you've made up your mind, come to … Heaven's Howling Mountain to look for me! "
Lu Li left with determination. He knew that there were some things that he could not compromise on. Otherwise, the Wicked Bead would be like throwing a meat bun at a dog, never to be returned.
He left resolutely because he wanted to give Yan Gu a false impression. He wanted Yan Gu to think that he didn't care about the people of the Divine Great Land.
If he didn't take a step back, then they would break up.
Yan Gu knew about the Mountain of Heaven's Roars. It was more than one hundred miles away from here. Yan Gu asked Fang Rui to send out scouts to follow Lu Li at once. Yan Gu was relieved to make sure that Lu Li had gone to the Mountain of Heaven's Roars.
He pondered for an hour and decided to give in. He asked Fang Rui to bring up the conditions — all the Semi-God Realm warriors in the other three cities could leave, but he had to leave three in the City of Heaven's Roars.
One of the three was monitoring Lu Li at the Mountain of Heaven's Roars and the other two were at the City of Heaven's Roars.
If Lu Li made any move, even if he could kill the Semi-God Realm warrior of the Mountain of Heaven's Roars, the two Semi-God Realm warriors of the City of Heaven's Roars could activate the Inhibition Formations at once and blast the hundreds of millions of humans to death!
After some consideration, Lu Li agreed to Yan Gu's terms. He knew this was Yan Gu's bottom line. If Lu Li still disagreed, Yan Gu would kill a group of people to make Lu Li compromise.
Lu Li stated another condition. He asked the Earth Immortal Realm warriors from the Cities of Mystic Armor, Red Lunar and Immortals Inquires to leave first. After they left, Lu Li would hand over the Wicked Bead to Yan Gu and the others.
Yan Gu was decisive about this. He sent a message to Jun Hongye, Chen Tianxian, and Feng Wanhu to evacuate to the Demon-slaying Grounds.
However, Yan Gu left one Semi-God Realm warrior in each of the three cities and not all of them left.
He Yue's subsidiary bodies were all over the Great Land. Lu Li would know as soon as she did something. He was not worried to learn that there was another Semi-God Realm warrior in each city.
When Chen Tianxian and the others had all retreated to the Demon-slaying Grounds, Lu Li and He Yue flew out from the Wicked Bead. They shrank the Wicked Bead. Lu Li threw the Wicked Bead to Fang Rui in the distance and said, "You have it. Tell Yan Gu to leave at once. Also, send a message to the three Semi-God Realm warriors in the Cities of Mystic Armor, Red Lunar, and Immortals Inquires. Tell them to leave as well!"
"Eh …"
Fang Rui grabbed the Wicked Bead, shocked. He did not expect that Lu Li would give him the Wicked Bead so easily.
He did not know how precious the Wicked Bead was, but he knew that it was a Relic. Even Yan Gu, Yan Family Patriarch, and Yan Tiangang, the forefather of the Yan Family, coveted it!
Lu Li had given away a piece of treasure so casually without hesitation.
Out of instinct, Fang Rui wanted to step back. He was afraid that Lu Li would kill him in an instant.
Lu Li did not do anything. He sat on the peak of the Mountain of Heaven's Roars with his legs crossed. He Yue was standing next to him.
"Whoosh ~"
Still, Fang Rui stepped back for a couple of miles. He crushed a jade talisman. Soon, a Semi-God Realm warrior came from the distance.
Fang Rui told the Semi-God Realm warrior to keep an eye on Lu Li while he flew toward the City of Heaven's Roars.
Yan Gu did not hide underground anymore. He went back to the valley. Fang Rui flew into the valley, handed the Wicked Bead to Yan Gu and said, "Lord, see if it is authentic."
Yan Gu looked at the Wicked Bead with confusion. Then, he trembled and grabbed the Wicked Bead in his hand. He used psychic power to check and even Xuan Energy to check. In the end, he nodded with delight and said, "It is authentic. It is a Relic. It must be a Relic!"
Yan Gu had a Relic and he knew it well. A Relic like the Wicked Bead could not be faked. Yan Gu did not expect that he could get his hands on the Wicked Bead so easily.
"Okay!"
As long as he could find a way to give the Wicked Bead to Yan Tiangang, Yan Gu would be credited. Later, Yan Tiangang would reward Yan Gu handsomely. Yan Gu's status in the family would be second only to the Family Patriarch.
"Where is Lu Li?"
A moment later, Yan Gu came back to his senses from joy. He put the Wicked Bead into his Interspatial Ring and asked at once, alarmed.
"He is still at the Mountain of Roars!"
Fang Rui said, "Brother Three of He is still there. He did not send any warning. His jade talisman of life is not broken, either. It means that Lu Li is still there.
Well … he said to evacuate at once. The other three cities should evacuate as well. Or else … "
Fang Rui did not finish his sentence but Yan Gu understood. Yan Gu thought about it and said, "Okay. Send a message to the Cities of Mystic Armor, the Red Lunar, and the Cities of Immortals Inquires. They can evacuate now. Gather at the Demon-slaying City and wait for me."
Fang Rui sent a message at once. Yan Gu's eyes were filled with passion. He paced up and down in the valley. He was still excited.
He had the Wicked Bead. He wished he could fly back to the Divine Imperial Universe. He didn't care about what was happening at the Great Land.
He didn't even want to kill Lu Li. All he wanted was to return to the Divine Imperial Universe as soon as possible.
"Well … I have to be the first to leave. I cannot go with Chen Tianxian and Jun Hongye. What if they ambush me and take the Wicked Bead away?"
Yan Gu thought about it. When Fang Rui came back, Yan Gu said, "Fang Rui, I have to leave now. I will leave everything here to you.
Your mission is to keep an eye on Lu Li. When I am about to leave the Heaven Reverse Universe, I will remind you to evacuate!
Remember … before I send you a message to evacuate, if Lu Li does anything out of the ordinary, give the order to kill. "
Fang Rui nodded solemnly. He left to make arrangements. Yan Gu left first with the two Semi-God Realm warriors.
He took the Teleportation Formation and arrived at the Demon-slaying Battleground after several teleportations.
"Lord, Yan Gu has left. Semi-God Realm warriors from the Cities of Mystic Armor, the Cities of Immortals Inquires, and the Red Lunar are leaving as well. Nobody is going to kill your people."
As soon as Yan Gu left, He Yue sensed it and reported at once.
Lu Li nodded without opening his eyes. He Yue asked in confusion, "Lord, did you really give the Wicked Bead to Yan Gu?
If you don't go after them now, they will escape … "
"Hmm!"
