Informed the Deaf Taoist?
Lu Li did not show much of a reaction, but the others were taken aback. Tang, in particular, pulled a long face.
Powerful warriors could live a long life. Usually, after reaching the Noble Lord Realm, it was normal for a warrior to live for one or two thousand years.
One or two thousand years was enough for many things to happen. For example, a family could be wiped out and the one who did it was so powerful that the family could not fight back. The family could only swallow the pain and go to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos to cultivate, hoping that one day, they could seek revenge.
Some warriors, like the Deranged Taoist Pair, fled to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos because they had offended super powerful warriors in their own universes.
There were more warriors who had lived a long life and enjoyed all the glory and splendor. They had seen through the mundane world and decided to calm down to take the last step.
Therefore, there were many warriors in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. Conflicts were inevitable. Maybe, some warriors wanted to make breakthroughs in battles.
Because of the frequent battles, the warriors had a good understanding of each other's abilities. They were afraid of the few most powerful warriors in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos.
The Deaf Taoist was one of them!
Someone created a ranking for the warriors in the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos. Only the 10 most powerful warriors were named "Purgatory's Top 10".
Although some people didn't agree with this list, there was no doubt that these ten people were very powerful.
The Deaf Taoist ranked No.4 among the "Purgatory's Top 10", which was proof that the Deaf Taoist was powerful.
Lu Li's so-called master, the Blood Emperor, was on the list as well. He was ranked No.3, ahead of the Deaf Taoist. That was why the Deranged Taoist Pair were scared off by the Blood Emperor.
The Deranged Taoist Pair and the Deaf Taoist were not on good terms. But the Deaf Taoist made it clear that he owed the Deranged Taoist Pair a favor.
Though no one knew what the Deranged Taoist Pair had done, the Deaf Taoist would lend them a hand when necessary.
Now that the Deranged Taoist Pair had made use of this favor, many people were taken aback. Some even wanted to leave right away in case the Deaf Taoist would kill them by mistake …
Tang was the most stressed out!
"Swish ~"
The immortal's body did not care. He dashed toward the green-robed warrior in a blur. However, the green-robed warrior was fast. He kept releasing skeleton hands and seals to stop the immortal's body from getting closer.
"Kill!"
Tang made up his mind. After all, Lu Li had killed one of them. Tang did not mind too much. He would deal with the other one first.
"Hah ~"
Old Freak Tang shouted, and heavy rain poured down from the sky. The curtain of rain was like smoke, and water dragons condensed in the air. They rushed over from all directions, surrounding the green-robed old freak.
Old Freak Tang's water profundity was the most annoying. It could slow down the enemy's speed, making him like a clingy fly.
The green-robed warrior was entangled and the immortal's body was approaching. The green-robed warrior bellowed, "Tang, leave now. When the Deaf Taoist is here, I will let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, you will die as well."
The green-robed warrior tried to sow discord. He hated Lu Li the most at the moment. It did not matter if Tang was killed or not. His priority was to stay alive.
Old Freak Tang had lived for so many years. If he was so easily alienated, then he would have lived his life like a dog.
His face didn't change as he continued to release his Upanishad attacks.
"Hiss ~"
With Tang's help, the resistance the immortal's body faced was reduced.
Finally, the immortal's body was close to the green-robed warrior. He punched at the green-robed warrior. The noise caused by the high speed was ear-piercing.
"Buzzing!"
The green-robed warrior took out a flag. He waved it and the flag swirled up, surrounding the immortal's body and Tang.
Without hesitation, the immortal's body punched. The green flag was torn apart. However, at that moment, the green-robed warrior's body glowed in a blood-red light. He retreated for several miles.
Lu Li watched leisurely. He did not intend to take any action. He wanted to see what these warriors were capable of and learn a thing or two from them.
The immortal's body was fast. The green-robed warrior would not be able to run away even if he had some tricks up his sleeve.
The immortal's body chased after the green-robed warrior. Tang released dragons of water to stop the green-robed warrior from running away.
The green-robed warrior released more skeleton hands and seals to stop the immortal's body from approaching.
Clearly, the green-robed warrior was stalling for time, waiting for the Deaf Taoist to come.
Some of the onlookers secretly moved to the sides to watch from a distance. They did not want to be implicated.
Some of the bolder ones stayed to watch.
They looked at Lu Li with curiosity and confusion — clearly, the second brother of the Deranged Taoist Pair was stalling for time, waiting for the Deaf Taoist to come. Why was Lu Li not moving? Was he not afraid of the Deaf Taoist at all?
That being said, given what Lu Li had just done and the fact that he was wearing Relic armor and weapon and had the immortal's body, they could understand.
If Lu Li could kill Yan Zhen, why would he be afraid of the Deaf Taoist?
Yan Zhen was known as the most powerful warrior in the nine universes.
"Bang ~"
In the air, the immortal's body smashed a Quasi Relic shield that the green-robed warrior threw out. Taking the chance, the green-robed warrior released some skeleton hands and then used skills to retreat.
"He has a lot of treasures!"
Lu Li followed up slowly. Still, he showed no signs of taking actions. He wanted to see how many treasures the green-robed warrior had to destroy the immortal's body.
The green-robed warrior was getting impatient. He would look into the distance every now and then. He was not sure that the Deaf Taoist was in the Prison of Ice.
If the Deaf Taoist was not, it would be too late for Lu Li to come and save him.
Time moved on. After the time for one incense stick to burn, the immortal's body had closed the distance again. This time, the green-robed warrior had no other moves. He reached out a skeleton hand to grab the immortal's body. At the same time, he shouted, "Lu Li, just you wait. The Deaf Taoist will kill your entire family."
"Bang!"
The immortal's body smashed at the green-robed warrior's arm. Then, his body exploded into a mist of blood. He was dead.
"Stop —"
At the same time, a hoarse voice came from the sky.
The Old Monsters who were watching from below immediately flew away in all directions, their faces filled with fear.
"Buzzing ~"
The air trembled. Then, a black halo appeared. An old Taoist wearing a gray robe and holding a horsetail whisk walked out from the halo.
"The Deaf Taoist!"
Tang took a look at the Deaf Taoist's ears. Both of the ears were cut off. Tang was no longer surprised. He was sure of the identity of this person.
Tang flew behind Lu Li and whispered, "Lu, this is the Deaf Taoist, the No.4 of the Purgatory's Top 10. He is good. You … be careful."
Lu Li nodded, still wearing a smile. He looked at the Deaf Taoist but said nothing.
Lu Li did not know about the entanglement between the Deaf Taoist and the Deranged Taoist Pair. However, since the three were related and the Deaf Taoist was protecting the two, Lu Li believed that the Deaf Taoist and the Deranged Taoist were birds of the same feather.
The Deaf Taoist came out from the black halo. He threw a glance to the immortal's body and then to the green-robed warrior who had exploded into a mist of blood. In the end, he turned to Lu Li and said, "I know that those two are not good people. But I owe them a favor. Therefore, I cannot stand by and do nothing when they are killed.
Young man, I am going to kill you. Do you have any last words?
Don't worry. I have my principles. I will not implicate your family. "
"Ha, ha, ha!"
