There were runes in the chariot. After they left the city, the chariot trembled and Lu Li and the others were teleported away quietly.
But the chariot kept moving forward and would not stop until it bumped into a rock or a tree.
Lu Li and the others felt a white glare and then they appeared in a castle. There was an illusion outside the castle and the runes in the castle were activated. Several people inside bowed to greet them as soon as they were teleported out.
"Hu He, are you ready?"
Yan Zu asked directly. A powerful warrior of the Lord Realm, Hu He, nodded and said, "Yan Zu, everything is ready. We can open the portal at any time!"
"Let's go!"
Yan Zu didn't want anything to go wrong. He led them to a side chamber on the side at once. There were many runes here. It was a super large altar.
"Open it!"
Yan Zu waved his hand. Hu He led the others to open the portal. Soon, the Divine Glyphs lit up and a golden gate appeared in midair. Yan Zu checked carefully and nodded, "It's okay. Lu Li, let's go!"
"Let's go!"
Lu Li waved his hand. They rushed toward the portal. Xiang Linglong and Lu Ling looked at each other, relieved.
This was a long-distance portal. As long as they could teleport through the portal, the powerful warriors of the Holy Maiden Sect would not be able to catch up with them.
"Whoosh!"
Hu He and several warriors at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation Realm were relieved after Yan Zu and the other three warriors went into the space portal. Lu Li and Yan Zu were gone. Hu He and the warriors at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation Realm had accomplished their mission. They had made a great contribution to the family.
"Boom!"
Right at that moment, there came a muffled sound of explosion. Hu He's expressions changed. He shouted, "No, someone is attacking the runes outside."
A spear appeared in Hu He's hand. He was about to rush out when a vast amount of runes spread out. Then a man appeared in the side chamber quietly.
It was a skinny old man in a black robe. His hair was disheveled and he was barefoot. He looked like a beggar.
The old man ignored Hu He and the others. He stared at the open portal and grinned, "You want to run?"
"You are … Lunatic Tu?"
Hu He felt his blood was frozen. He could not move. As for the warriors at the Fifth Tribulation Realm, they couldn't even move their fingers. They looked at the barefoot black-robed old man in fear.
"Hehe, you still recognize this old man?"
The skinny old man grinned and said coldly, "If that's the case, I'll leave your corpse intact."
Madman Tu casually waved his hand and easily grabbed Hu He's head.
Hu He desperately wanted to attack, but he found that the hand had already grabbed his head. Then, his head exploded.
"Swish!"
Lunatic Tu waved his hand and a gust of wind blew over. The remaining few peak fifth tribulation experts instantly turned into blood mist. Lunatic Tu stared at the domain gate that had yet to disappear. He wasn't in a hurry to chase after them. Instead, he looked at the divine inscriptions below.
"Hehe, do you want to go to the Ancient Moon Empire?"
Lunatic Tu stared at the rune for a while and then took out the map. He sneered and said, "Lu Li, Lu Li.
Don't blame the old lunatic. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have. "
"Xiu!"
Lunatic Tu shot out several rays of light at the rune. He didn't destroy the domain gate or the rune. Instead, he … modified one of the rune.
If he destroyed the rune and the domain gate, Lu Li and the others would be forced out, but they wouldn't necessarily be strangled by the twisting power of space.
After all, Yan Zu was at the Emperor Realm. He might be able to protect Lu Li from death.
Therefore, he modified one rune and changed the location of the domain gate.
As long as Lu Li didn't go to the Ancient Moon Empire, he wouldn't be able to escape from their pursuit.
That was right!
This time, he wasn't the only one chasing after Lu Li. There were three of them.
A Saint Sovereign from the Holy Lady Sect sent over a letter with a portrait on it. It was Lu Li's portrait!
The three of them understood at once. The Saint Sovereign of the Holy Lady Sect asked them to kill Lu Li.
As for the reward, it was a favor from the Saint Sovereign. Even though the Saint Sovereign didn't say anything, if a Saint Sovereign asked them to do something, they would owe them a favor.
Lu Li was a disciple of the Celestial Emperor Sect. If they killed a disciple of the Celestial Emperor Sect in public, the three of them would die even if they fled to the ends of the earth.
But for the sake of this favor, the three of them decided to do it.
As long as no evidence was left, what could the Celestial Emperor Sect do?
This was not the Celestial Emperor Sect's sphere of influence. Also, according to the information they received, the Celestial Emperor Sect didn't send any powerful warriors, only Yan Zu.
Therefore, as long as they did a clean job, everything would be fine.
Lunatic Tu had his eyes on the Dark Castle for a long time. He could have done it just now. If the three of them worked together, it would be too easy to kill Yan Zu.
However, this place was too close to Eastwood City, and many of the major factions had scouts everywhere. Yan Zu was an Emperor-level warrior, so once someone found out that they were fighting, their identities would definitely be exposed.
Therefore, Lunatic Tu chose to do it after Yan Zu, Lu Li and the others entered the domain gate. He himself was a Master of Rune. He could modify the rune and teleport Lu Li and the others to other places. Then, they could go after them.
"Buzzing!"
After Lunatic Tu modified the rune, the space nearby began to tremble. Following that, two silhouettes appeared out of thin air. One was an old man in a Daoist robe, looking like an immortal. The other one looked like a ferocious demon with a ferocious glint in his eyes.
"Lunatic Tu, are you done?"
The ferocious-looking strong man asked. Lunatic Tu glanced at him and said with a perverted smile, "I sent them to the Boundless Desert. They can't run even if they want to.
Heh, heh.
Daoist Mu, Emperor Yan, should we go after them now, or should we wait and see if they have hidden powerful warriors to protect them? "
"Wait my ass!"
Emperor Yan snorted angrily, "Kill everyone nearby. Let's go and catch up with them as soon as possible. Kill them and be done with it."
Priest Mu slightly nodded as well. Lunatic Tu conveniently cast a few divine spell symbols to protect this gate, then the three of them transformed into streams of light, darted into the gate, and disappeared.
Everyone was teleported away but the domain gate didn't disappear. Because this was a long-distance teleportation, it would take some time for the domain gate to disappear.
"Whoosh!"
Not long after the three of them went in, a gust of wind came from the castle. Following that, a black shadow dashed into the domain gate at a horrifying speed. It was so fast that people couldn't tell what it was.
There was no longer any movement in the castle. Only Hu He's corpse was still dripping with blood.
After an hour, the domain gate disappeared and the runes stopped glowing. Peace had been restored.
Lu Li and the others didn't know how long they had been teleporting. Fortunately, their souls were strong enough so they didn't feel dizzy.
While they were feeling a bit suffocated, they finally saw a ray of light in front of them. They followed the light and landed in a desert.
"Eh?"
