Second Layer of Heaven, Dragon Island!
This island was not very big. It was about the same size as a big island in the Sea of Demons, with a radius of about one million miles.
There were not many people on the island, only a few thousand. Moreover, these few thousand people did not do anything. Apart from a group of people who were on guard, the rest were cultivating in the castles.
The castles here were built in a very imposing manner. All the castles were hundreds of feet high and thousands of feet wide. They looked very majestic and imposing.
There was an altar in the middle of the island. This altar looked very old and there were traces of time on it.
There were two people guarding the altar, but they did not seem to care at all. They were talking in a low voice.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the altar suddenly lit up, startling the two people on both sides.
The two of them looked at each other with astonishment in their eyes. The altar had actually lit up?
"Whoosh, whoosh ~"
Many people also came out from the castles. Their eyes were full of doubt. Didn't Lady Man and the others come back?
Who sent them here?
Could it be the people of Youyan?
Did they have the guts to go to the Second Layer of Heaven?
"Bang, bang, bang!"
A tall man with bronze skin came out from one of the castles. He was not wearing any clothes, revealing his beast-like strong muscles. It felt like every muscle was filled with endless power and could easily tear people apart.
"Greetings, Commander Lin!"
The people in the square immediately bowed. Commander Lin did not look at them. He looked at the altar and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, gather!"
Commander Lin's voice was not loud, but many people immediately flew out from the castles.
No … many of them did not look like normal humans. Some of them were more than ten feet tall, some had wings on their back, and some had horns on their heads. They looked very strange and evil.
Thousands of strange people stood around the square in silence. Their eyes were fixed on the altar.
Commander Lin did not say anything. No one dared to say anything. They just stood there in silence, ready for battle.
The altar lit up for more than four hours. The group of people stood there for more than four hours.
No one said anything and no one moved. The military discipline was extremely strict. Perhaps it was because Commander Lin's prestige was too high that no one dared to act recklessly.
Finally, two figures appeared on the altar. As soon as these two people appeared, the atmosphere in the square immediately became more serious.
Light flashed in many people's hands as they took out their weapons and prepared for battle.
"Hmm?"
Lu Li and Uncle Li had just arrived from the altar. Lu Li checked with psychic power and was taken aback by the situation on the island.
Thousands of people surrounded them, and all of them had the aura of a supreme being of the Immortal World. There were at least ten Second Tribulation Heavenly Gods?
That Commander Lin gave him the most terrifying feeling. He felt like he couldn't even breathe properly.
"Leave everything to me!"
Uncle Li took Lu Li's hand and stepped forward. Looking at Commander Lin, he said, "Commander Lin Rui?
I am Li Tian, the commander of Blackflame Hall! "
"Black Flame Hall?"
Killing intent soared at the plaza. If it were not for the fact that Commander Lin hadn't given the order, they would have swarmed over and torn Lu Li and Uncle Li apart.
"I know you!"
Commander Lin raised his hand. Everyone quieted down. He put on a mocking smile and said, "If you are from the Blackflame Hall, why don't you use the Teleportation Altar of Blackflame Hall?
Are you courting death? "
Uncle Li thought of something. He cupped his fists and said, "The Teleportation Altar over there has been destroyed. I have something urgent to report to the Grand Master. So, I have to borrow your Teleportation Altar for now. Please forgive me if I have offended you."
"Alright, stop the act!"
Commander Lin sneered again, "You have become someone's soul slave and you are still putting on an act. Tell your master to come out and talk. You are not qualified to talk to me.
Hmm … you are a disgrace to the Second Heaven. "
"What?"
Commander Lin's merciless words made Uncle Li's expressions change. Killing intent surged in his eyes. He was like a tiger that had its tail stepped on.
"What are you staring at?"
Commander Lin sneered, "Forget about the fact that you gave your weapon to someone else, you're still injured. Even if you were at your peak, you wouldn't be able to beat me.
Believe me, this Commander challenged Yanggang six days ago and successfully killed him! "
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Warriors around burst into laughter. Their eyes were filled with mockery and provocation. They wanted Uncle Li to do something so that they could kill him.
"Yang Gang?"
Uncle Li's expression changed, and the murderous intent on his body gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of humiliation.
He knew Yang Gang well. Not long ago, he had a fight with Yang Gang and was defeated.
If what Commander Lin said was true, then Uncle Li was no match for Commander Lin.
"Li Tian!"
Lu Li suddenly said. He even patted Uncle Li's shoulder. Lu Li walked forward, cupped his fists and said, "I am Lu Li. Nice to meet you, Commander Lin."
If Commander Lin knew that Uncle Li was Lu Li's soul slave, then he must know about what happened in the Divinity. If so, Lu Li had to come out.
After all, he had come to the Second Heaven with the mentality that he was going to die. He had to throw caution to the wind.
"Ha, ha!"
Commander Lin sized Lu Li up and down and said with a nod, "Punk, you have guts. You have the guts to offend our Immortal Lady and take our Teleportation Altar to the Second Heaven. Are you sure that we don't have the guts to kill you?"
"Commander Lin, you think too highly of me!"
Lu Li smiled faintly and said in a relaxed manner, "If it were not for the fact that I have nowhere else to go, I would never come to the Second Heaven.
Commander Lin, now that you know what happened in the Divinity, you must have figured out why I came to the Second Heaven.
Who would want to wander aimlessly if they could be happy and healthy?
Isn't that right, Commander Lin? "
"Don't try to play with me!"
Commander Lin put on a solemn expression and said, "I will give you two choices. Either … you join the Shangqing Palace and we will take care of the Black Flame Hall for you.
Or, I will kill you both for trespassing on the territory of the Shangqing Palace. "
"Commander Lin!"
Uncle Li was getting anxious. He added, "Killing us will do you no good. If you let us go, we can help you deal with the Black Flame Hall.
You and the Black Flame Hall are mortal enemies. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right? "
"Shut up!"
Commander Lin suddenly scolded, "You are a traitor of the Black Flame Hall. What right do you have to talk to me?
Say one more word and I will kill you! "
"You …"
Uncle Li flew into a rage. If it weren't for the fact that there were thousands of people here and Commander Lin was powerful, he would have made a move already.
"Okay, Uncle Li, say no more!"
Lu Li waved his hand, looked at Commander Lin calmly and said, "I choose the second option. I have said no to your Immortal Lady before.
The Shangqing Palace is so overbearing and unreasonable. I feel ashamed to join you.
Kill me if you want. I don't plan on going back alive since I have come to the Second Heaven. "
"How dare you!"
"Courting death!"
"Commander Lin, kill him!"
Lu Li's words enraged people nearby. They were filled with killing intent. Many people held up their weapons.
How could a bumpkin from the Divinity be so arrogant?
How could they put up with the fact that he was looking down on the Shangqing Palace?
"You want to die?
As you wish! "
