Uncle Li was nearby, only hundreds of thousands of miles away from Lu Li. He was covered in blood and his face was red. He was in a bad state of mind.
Eight warriors were chasing after him. They were all Second Tribulation Heaven Immortals and they were following Lu Li in a fan formation.
Clearly, they did not go after Uncle Li with all their strength.
The eight were from the Hall of Combat of the Dark Flame and they were familiar with Uncle Li's skills.
They all knew that Uncle Li could use a powerful move when he was desperate. Not all of them would die, but at least one or two of them would.
More importantly, it was pointless to capture and kill Uncle Li. Their real mission was to kill Lu Li.
It had been a long time since they found Lu Li. They hoped to find Lu Li by following Uncle Li.
Uncle Li knew this very well. The glow in his eyes dimmed down. He knew he could not survive this time.
He could not get rid of the eight. Even if he could, he would still die.
There must be a patriarch or even three patriarchs nearby. Their real target was not Uncle Li, but Lu Li.
He was not in a hurry to die. The day he betrayed the Hall of Black Flame, he knew that he would most likely die.
He only wanted to come to the Second Heaven to settle down his daughter. Then, he would be fine even if he died.
Now, it seemed that his wish had become an extravagant hope. He regretted that he should have told Lu Li where his daughter was.
If Lu Li could escape, maybe Lu Li could take care of his daughter for him.
It had been months since Uncle Li saw Lu Li. Since Uncle Li was still alive, Lu Li must be alive as well.
Uncle Li admired Lu Li for being able to survive for such a long time when he was on his own.
The fact that Lu Li could come to the Divinity from the mortal world and dominate the Divinity proved that he was not an average person.
"Li Tian, surrender!"
"Yes, Commander Li, surrender and help us find Lu Li. When we go back, we will ask the Grand Master to be lenient on you."
"Commander Li, we all know that you became Lu Li's soul slave because you had no other choice. Grand Master will understand.
As long as you turn over a new leaf, Grand Master might pardon you! "
"Li Tian, if you still refuse to realize your errors, then we can only disregard our past relationship and kill you!"
The eight people behind Lu Li kept yelling. They had no other choice. They had mobilized more than 100 warriors and thousands of scouts. They even asked the small forces nearby to join in the search. Still, there was no trace of Lu Li.
One of their patriarchs used a secret skill to make sure that Lu Li was in the nearby waters. That being said, so many of them had been searching but to no avail.
They had no other choice but to pin their hopes on Uncle Li, hoping that he could help them find Lu Li. After all, Uncle Li was Lu Li's soul slave and he had a spiritual connection with Lu Li. Maybe, he was the one who hid Lu Li.
"Hehe!"
Uncle Li laughed coldly. These people were simply insulting his intelligence.
He had been in the Black Flame Hall for so many years, how could he not know what kind of person the Black Flame Hall Master was?
Surrendering would only result in death. There was no possibility of being pardoned.
"Eh …"
While he was running, Uncle Li suddenly trembled. He felt the spiritual connection with Lu Li was getting stronger.
What did this mean?
This meant that Lu Li was getting closer.
"Oh no!"
Uncle Li shouted to himself. Lu Li might have sensed the spiritual connection with him so he was getting closer quickly.
If Lu Li came over, then everything would be over. The patriarchs hiding nearby would take actions at once to capture or kill Uncle Li and Lu Li together.
"No, I must warn my master and tell him not to come over!"
Uncle Li reacted quickly. The heavy sword in his hand glowed and he hacked at the space behind him.
A streak of golden light appeared, tearing apart the sky and causing the space to tremble. Uncle Li hacked at the space behind him.
"Whoosh!"
The eight people behind him immediately scattered and dodged. The golden light slashed into the seawater, causing the seawater to churn and the waves to hit the sky. They violently surged in all directions, creating a huge commotion.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Uncle Li kept hacking at the space, causing the sea and space within a radius of more than three thousand miles to tremble.
If Lu Li were closer, he would be able to sense it.
Uncle Li believed that Lu Li was smart enough to see something.
"Has the old man lost his mind?"
"Kill him?"
"Let's wait and see. He can't get away!"
The eight people behind Uncle Li were confused. Uncle Li's sudden and violent attacks were powerful but he didn't hurt anyone. This kind of attack was meaningless to them.
"He is still getting closer?"
Uncle Li tried to sense and found that the spiritual connection with Lu Li was getting stronger.
He became extremely nervous. Then, his eyes turned, and he suddenly came to his senses. His expression also became extremely ugly.
Judging from the strength of the spiritual connection, he could tell that Lu Li was approaching at a horrifying speed.
Lu Li's speed was only so fast. Clearly, this was not Lu Li's normal state.
In other words …
Lu Li was being carried by an external force that was several times or even more than 10 times his own speed. Lu Li had just come to the Second Heaven. What external force could Lu Li have?
The only explanation was — Lu Li had been captured by the patriarchs of the Hall of Black Flame and he was being carried over.
"I am overthinking …"
Uncle Li stopped his attacks. Desperation rose in his eyes.
Given Lu Li's power, it was already commendable that he could survive at the Second Heaven for so long. The Hall of Black Flame had sent out so many warriors. It was reasonable that Lu Li was captured.
"Never mind, never mind!"
Uncle Li was ready to die. When Lu Li was brought over, Uncle Li was ready to risk his life.
Even if he were to die, he would drag one or two people down with him.
Uncle Li didn't even bother to run. He stood where he was, staring at the eight behind him coldly.
The eight looked at each other, surprised. But they didn't think too much. They spread out and surrounded Uncle Li.
The golden sword in Uncle Li's hand glowed. He had been trying to sense the spiritual connection with Lu Li.
At the same time, he used psychic power to check around. He wanted to see which patriarch of the Hall of Black Flame had taken Lu Li.
"Eh?"
After a while, Uncle Li was surprised. He could feel that Lu Li was at the bottom of the sea.
Was the patriarch of the Hall of Black Flame taking Lu Li to the bottom of the sea?
Was that patriarch not afraid of being killed by the Beasts of Primordial Chaos at the bottom of the sea?
"Move!"
The eight warriors surrounded Uncle Li for a while. Seeing that Uncle Li didn't do anything, they became impatient and decided to make their moves.
The eight of them moved almost at the same time. They dashed towards Uncle Li from all sides. They planned to work together and injure Uncle Li in one move.
"Charge!"
Uncle Li knew that he could not run away. He was ready to risk his life.
But right at that moment, he suddenly felt a surge of psychic power coming from the bottom of the sea. He was very familiar with that psychic power. It was Lu Li's.
"Splash, splash ~"
At the same time, the water at the bottom of the sea tumbled as a huge shadow leaped out.
Before Uncle Li and the eight martial artists could react, a huge fish opened its mouth and swallowed Uncle Li and the eight martial artists.
"Bastard, how dare you?"
