Hunchback Tian was besieged by the four girls, but he was not at a disadvantage. The four girls were only at the initial stage of the Soul Pond Realm, but Hunchback Tian was at the peak.
Even so, he could not gain the upper hand. The four girls were so fast that Lu Li could only tell that they were girls. They were young so he could not see their faces clearly.
The four girls moved around Hunchback Tian like phantoms. Even though they were only at the initial stage of the Soul Pond Realm, they were faster than Hunchback Tian.
The four of them cooperated well. Their way of attack was similar to that of the Green Dwarfs. They relied on their horrifying speed and the hooks in their hands to launch sneak attacks. Once they missed, they would retreat immediately.
Each of them had two black hooks in their hands. The hooks were very sharp and glinted coldly. If one was hooked, a piece of flesh would be gone.
Hunchback Tian carried a long and narrow golden saber and waved it around. Every now and then, he would release Xuan Energy, trying to hit the girls.
It was a pity that the girls' perception was even better than their speed. Their footwork was amazing as well. They would change their paths suddenly, so Hunchback Tian could not locate them.
Hunchback Tian could not do anything to the four, nor could he get away.
The four of them could not kill Hunchback Tian either. They had to keep moving around him and attacking.
Lu Li looked away after a while. He fixed his eyes on the little girl at the peak of the mountain.
Even though the girl was wearing coarse hemp clothes like the four girls, she had a gem necklace on her neck and bracelets on her hands. She was arrogant. Clearly, she had a high status.
Lu Li thought quickly. In the time for a few breaths, he made up his mind.
He had to help Hunchback Tian. Otherwise, if Hunchback Tian died, he would not survive either.
There were two ways to help Hunchback Tian. The first was to help him attack the four girls, and the second was to capture the little girl at the peak of the mountain.
He chose the latter!
Little girls were easier to deal with. He didn't want to kill the little girl. He just wanted to take her as a hostage to threaten the four girls.
"Get that little girl!"
He ordered the three Green Dwarfs behind him. He rushed forward like a cheetah with his Mighty Heaven Halberd in his hand.
"You, an ant, want to shake the sky?"
Seeing the three Green Dwarfs and Lu Li running towards her, the little girl was not scared at all. Instead, she mocked.
The four girls fighting against Hunchback Tian looked over. They didn't mind at all and continued to fight Hunchback Tian.
"Whoosh ~"
The three green dwarfs turned into a gust of wind and rushed to the top of the mountain. A pair of golden hooks appeared in the hands of the beautiful little girl. Her body lit up with a green light, and she turned into a gust of wind and floated over.
"Hiss ~"
When she approached the first Green Dwarf, the necklace and bracelet on the little girl's neck lit up. Her speed suddenly skyrocketed, and she passed by a Green Dwarf.
The hook slid across the green dwarf's lower abdomen. The green dwarf cried out in pain as a deep bloody mark appeared on its lower abdomen.
"Oh!"
Lu Li was shocked. This little girl was even faster than the other four girls.
Moreover, this little girl's hook was different from the other four girls' hooks. It was golden in color and was shining brightly. It was comparable to a powerful profound level weapon.
"Whoosh ~"
Lu Li was stunned, but the little girl was not. She moved around like a gust of wind. Every time she passed by the Green Dwarfs, she would leave some bloody marks on them.
The Green Dwarfs had a good defense. When they were attacked, their scales would appear.
However, under the little girl's hooks, the Green Dwarfs were like tofu. She easily left some bloody marks on them.
Green blood splattered everywhere. In the time for just a few breaths, the three Green Dwarfs all had several bloody marks on them …
"Hoy!"
If the little girl continued to attack, the three Green Dwarfs would be tortured to death. Lu Li had to do it himself.
He mobilized his Xuan Power, swung his Mighty Heaven Halberd and swept at the little girl.
"Whoosh ~"
When the Mighty Heaven Halberd swept by, the little girl suddenly crouched down and dodged the Mighty Heaven Halberd just in time.
She rushed past Lu Li like a gust of wind, and her hook swept across Lu Li's lower abdomen.
"Crack, crack!"
Lu Li was wearing an Earth Grade armor, but some sparks came out. Lu Li looked down and was shocked. There was a crack on his armor. The Earth Grade armor was broken easily.
"Hoy!"
He swung his halberd backhandedly, but he could not hit the little girl.
He clearly saw that the little girl had just passed by him, but he could only hit an afterimage …
When he turned around to look for the little girl, he heard a breeze behind him. He felt some cold air on his neck.
Without hesitation, he swung his halberd behind him and rolled on the ground in front of him at the same time.
"Clank, clank ~"
He dodged quickly. Sparks came out from the armor on his back, and a long and narrow crack appeared on the armor.
That was not all. While Lu Li was rolling on the ground, he felt some cold air coming from his back. He had to keep rolling, but there were sparks on his back. He was attacked for seven or eight times in a row …
Luckily, the Green Dwarfs rushed over and helped him deal with the first wave of attacks.
Lu Li climbed up in embarrassment. He found that his armor was full of cracks. It was like a ragged robe, out of shape.
Many places on his body were injured, and blood was flowing out. Luckily, the armor had absorbed much of the force, so the wounds were not deep.
The armor was so tattered that it affected his movements. Lu Li simply took it off, only to find that the robe underneath was also ragged.
There was a strange dragon pattern on his back. Because the robe on the back was torn, more than half of it was exposed. The animal tooth pendant on his neck was also revealed.
However, he had no robe to change into. Since he was about to be killed, he couldn't care less.
He clenched his teeth and shouted, "Burning Blood!"
His muscles swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. His eyes turned silver, and the dragon pattern on his back glowed.
He grabbed a healing pellet and swallowed it. The animal tooth pendant on his neck began to glow.
At this moment of life and death, Lu Li had no choice but to reveal all his cards. If he still held back his strength, he would be cut open by the little girl in the next moment.
"Wa, wa ~!"
A Green Dwarf in front of him had its neck turned into a bloody mark. The Green Dwarf cried out and fell to the ground, twitching. Blood gushed out from its mouth. Clearly, it could not make it.
"Kill!"
Lu Li no longer hesitated or worried. This little girl was too powerful. He could not treat her as a little girl. He had to treat her as an enemy, cold-blooded and merciless.
If he could not kill the little girl, he would be the one dying.
The little girl was fighting with the other two Green Dwarfs in a blur. Lu Li ran on like crazy. There was not a trace of emotion in his silver eyes. He was like a cold-blooded Xuan Beast in human form.
"Boom ~"
The little girl moved aside and left a deep bloody mark on the neck of another Green Dwarf.
Lu Li was close to the little girl, but the little girl did not care. In her eyes, Lu Li was too weak …
"Hiss ~"
Lu Li had been holding back his speed. When he was close to the little girl, he suddenly sped up. The Mighty Heaven Halberd cut at the little girl's waist in a blur.
The little girl was about to kill the remaining Green Dwarf when she felt something was wrong. She looked back and saw Lu Li's silver eyes and the Mighty Heaven Halberd that was as fast as lightning. A trace of terror appeared in her eyes. Then she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Dummy, help me!"
"Bang!"
The hill suddenly exploded. Dirt and stones flew everywhere. A huge arm reached out from the hill. The five fingers were as thick as Lu Li's hand, just like the arm of a god.
The hand broke through the earth like lightning and grabbed Lu Li's Mighty Heaven Halberd. Then the huge hand exerted force. The Mighty Heaven Halberd, an Earth Grade Xuan Artifact, was shattered!
