There was an unwritten rule at the Second Heaven. Forces could fight and kill powerful warriors of their own families, but usually, they would not kill the heir of the other party, the most talented disciples of the younger generation.
The young disciples were the heritage of a force or a family, the hope for the continuation of the family.
If the most talented disciple of the younger generation was killed, then the heritage might disappear, which would affect the foundation of the force or family.
Once such a situation occurred, it would lead to a powerful counterattack from this power or family. His foundation had already been destroyed, so what else did he have to worry about? He would fight to the death.
Therefore, the designated heir of a force or family would not kill unless they were ready to fight to the death. Usually, they would just hurt and humiliate the heir.
The Storm Area had been stable recently. The forces were living in harmony. Therefore, the top young masters of the younger generation were relatively safe. Over the years, there had never been a case of a Divine Son or Goddess being killed.
Today, something unexpected happened!
Young Master Yan had been designated as the Divine Son by the Black Flame Hall. He was the designated heir of the Black Flame Hall. Now that he was killed, everyone was stunned.
Young Master Qin, Lady Qiong and the others opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
As for Young Master Fu and the others, they were scared out of their wits. If Lu Li dared to kill a Divine Son, then he would kill all of them. Their legs were bitten off and they couldn't even run away. If Lu Li were to make a move, all of them would die.
The 13 of them were Divine Sons and Goddesses. They knew they might die in the Palace of Immortals, but they never thought they would be killed.
Even though they couldn't see clearly from the mountain, they did hear Young Master Yan's miserable cries. They could also vaguely see Young Master Yan's inner armor and Interspatial Ring coming off.
Everyone had guessed it, but they couldn't believe it. Lu Li would not kill Young Master Yan unless he was out of his mind. That would be a declaration of war against the Black Flame Hall.
If Lu Li had no background, then he would be hunted down by the Black Flame Hall. If he did, then it would trigger a deadly war between the Black Flame Hall and their forces.
Everyone was exclaiming with mixed feelings. Lu Li, on the other hand, was calm.
He and the Black Flame Hall were already in a life-or-death situation. What else did he have to worry about?
He didn't want to kill, but Young Master Yan had recognized him. In desperation, he couldn't care less.
"Whoosh!"
In a flash, he rushed to Young Master Yan's corpse and grabbed his Xiao Yin Battle Armor and Spatial Ring.
Even though the few people nearby were in pain, they didn't dare to make any noise. They stared at Lu Li and didn't dare to show any hatred.
Nobody was not afraid of death. If they could, they would try. But now, they had no strength to fight back. They had to wait for Lu Li's final decision.
Young Master Ge, who was standing next to Young Master Qin and the others, secretly felt lucky that he was forced to the lakeside by Lu Li. He didn't choose to rush up and fight Lu Li to the death. Instead, he retreated. Otherwise, he would end up like the other four.
Lu Li looked at Young Master Fu. His eyes were as emotionless as the eyes of the God of Death. Young Master Fu felt a chill down his spine.
Lu Li was disgusted by this man. He would rather meet a real villain than a hypocrite like this.
He took two steps towards Young Master Fu, killing intent emanating from his body, causing Young Master Fu to be shocked. He panicked and shouted, "Sir, please don't act recklessly. We can talk things out."
"My friend!"
Right at that moment, Young Master Qin suddenly spoke. He said in a deep voice, "When it is possible to forgive, forgive and forget. They tried to take your elixir, but they didn't inflict any substantial harm to you.
You have hurt them badly and they have learned their lesson. Give them a chance and do me a favor. "
Young Master Qin's words were appropriate. He didn't threaten Lu Li by saying that killing them would incur the wrath of several forces.
Young Master Qin was clear that if he threatened Lu Li now, it would backfire.
Lu Li's killing intent faded away. He himself knew that he had offended the Black Flame Hall and would be hunted down by them.
If he killed them, then he would be hunted down by several forces.
Even if he went back to the Omen Island at once, several forces might come together to ask the Devil King for Lu Li.
"Alright!"
Lu Li said after a moment of silence, "I will spare your lives for Young Master Qin's sake."
"Elixir, everyone can take it!"
Lu Li glared at them coldly and said, "I did not rely on you to come to the island. I solved the rune myself. It has nothing to do with you.
You came to take my elixir and tried to kill me. So, I broke your legs. Will you accept your defeat? "
"…"
Young Master Fu and the others were swearing to themselves. Lu Li had beaten them and now he wanted them to kneel down and say that they were beaten well.
The four of them said nothing. When Lu Li's eyes grew colder, Young Master Fu made up his mind and shouted, "I accept your defeat!"
"Yes!"
Young Master Bu and the other two said gloomily. Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Then treat your wounds here and don't do anything. I don't mind killing one more of you."
"Buzzing ~"
The Worms of the Void in the air and the ones in their bodies flew underground and then into Lu Li's body. They were all taken into the mountain.
Lu Li walked over in strides. He sat down near the exit and told Blood Fairy to solve the rune at the exit. He pretended to be observing the rune but he was actually observing Young Master Fu and Young Master Qin outside the island.
He had already shocked the crowd, and now he had enough time to decipher the Divine Inscriptions at the exit.
When the rune was solved, he would leave at once. He would find a way to get out of the palace and run away.
Young Master Fu and the others did not act rashly. Their legs were bitten off, so they could not do anything.
They all took out healing pellets and lay on their sides to tend to their wounds. They were in a sorry state, which made them feel humiliated.
Young Master Qin and the others did not move. They continued to hover by the island.
The island was protected by the plaza where divine energy could not be used. On top of that, Lu Li had the horrifying insects. Nobody was confident that they could defeat Lu Li.
"What ~"
The mountain was bustling with noise and excitement. People were discussing in a low voice. Their faces were pale and gloomy at the same time.
They had thought that Lu Li would be killed easily. Little did they expect that things would turn out this way.
Time moved on. Two hours later, Young Master Fu and the others had recovered a bit. The wounds on their legs were all healed.
But they did not take the elixir to regrow their legs at once. They sat on the ground and stared at Lu Li coldly.
Young Master Qin and the others did not do anything. They just flew lower and stayed close to the beach.
They were patient. Nobody said a word. They waited for Lu Li to solve the rune at the exit.
Four hours later, the rune at the exit began to glow. Then, the runes near the exit gradually sank into the ground. The rune was cracked.
Young Master Qin and the others were shocked. Lu Li did nothing. He just stared at the exit. Could he solve the rune at a distance using his mind?
Everyone's psychic power was suppressed. Therefore, no one could see Blood Fairy underground. Naturally, they were surprised.
"Swish!"
Lu Li released a hand print toward the exit. This time, there was no glow. The rune at the exit was cracked.
"Sir, wait!"
When Lu Li stood up and was about to walk to the exit, Lady Qiong suddenly said. Her voice was pleasant, like pearls falling on a jade plate.
There was a trace of shyness on her face, which added a touch of charm to her pretty face.
"Eh?"
Everyone turned to her. They were shocked to see the shyness on Lady Qiong's face.
