The next morning, Lu Li got up early. He waved goodbye to Lu Ling and went to wait outside the west gate by himself.
Outside the west gate stood rows of martial artists. At a glance, there were at least three hundred people.
All of them were wearing silver white armors of the Liu Family and riding on big horses. At the front were seven or eight on Silver Wolves. Liu Yi was not here yet. Clearly, it was not time yet.
"The Liu Family is really powerful!"
Lu Li glanced over and saw that the 300 warriors were all at the Xuan Wu Realm. There were quite a few at the latter stage of the Xuan Wu Realm.
It was not just one or two, but 300.
They were only some of the External Clan warriors of the Liu Family. The County Guardians in the city were all warriors of the Liu Family.
"Every realm is as difficult as climbing up to the sky. Looks like the old saying is right!"
There were more than 300 warriors, but Lu Li sensed none of them were at the Spirit Sea Realm. He exclaimed to himself.
The living environment of the Northern Desert was harsh. Everyone worshiped martial arts. All the people in the tribes were the best hunters when they were young.
However, only one or two out of 10 warriors could cultivate Xuan Energy. Among the hundreds of warriors at the Xuan Wu Realm, only one or two could make it to the Spirit Sea Realm.
Xuan Wu, Spirit Sea, Soul Pond, Fate Wheel, Eternal Realm, Noble Lord Realm and Human Sovereign Realm!
It was extremely difficult to make a breakthrough in any realm. Once a warrior made a breakthrough, his strength would be enhanced by several times. His status and power would be enhanced as well.
For example, when Di Ba made it to the Spirit Sea Realm, he was immediately recruited by the Zhao Family at the Ice Abyss. Later, he made a great contribution and was promoted to the position of External Clan Patriarch.
Granted, there were many External Clan Patriarchs in a Big Family. But to become a Patriarch, one's status in the Family would be greatly enhanced and the resources he could get would be multiplied.
"Punk, come here!"
Liu Yu, one of the Silver Wolf Escorts, saw Lu Li standing outside the west gate in a daze. He shouted to him and then said to a man behind him, "Give him a horse."
"Oh!"
Lu Li hurried over in strides. Someone brought him a horse.
Lu Li scratched his head. He did not know how to ride a horse. Back in the tribe, he dared not to be so high-profile. He had never ridden a horse.
"You don't know how?
Learn by yourself. Just don't fall and get trampled to death. "
Liu Yu looked at Lu Li but didn't give him any more advice. Lu Li didn't know what was good for him and insisted on joining the Guest Clan, which made Liu Yu unhappy.
Lu Li touched his nose and hopped onto the horse. He dared not to move, so he could only hold the reins tightly.
Da da da!
After a while, three silver wolves dashed out from the west gate. The woman in the lead was wearing silver soft armor and a red cloak. Her face was as pretty as a flower and as delicate as jade. She looked valiant and formidable. The young warriors of the Liu Family looked at her with burning eyes.
Today, Liu Yi did not wear a fox fur coat. Instead, she wore a soft armor. Her exquisite figure was not covered, and instead, she had a different kind of charm.
She glanced over everyone and stopped at Lu Li for a bit. Making sure that he was here, she shouted, "Soldiers are trained for a thousand days to be used in one day. The Liu Family has been treating you well.
This is the most dangerous moment for the Liu Family. Please lend us a helping hand to flatten the Frigid Cloud Mountain! "
"Flatten the Frigid Cloud Mountain!"
Many people waved their arms and shouted. Their voices resounded in the wild, making Lu Li's ears ring. The horses were restless and almost threw Lu Li off.
"Alright, let's go. Our destination is the Frigid Cloud Mountain!"
Liu Yi switched to a silver long sword. She unsheathed it and pointed it to the north. She took the lead on her Silver Wolf and galloped away.
The 10 Silver Wolf Escorts behind her immediately followed. Behind them were the 300 warriors of the Liu Family. They galloped away in an orderly manner.
"Giddy up, giddy up!"
Lu Li did not know how to ride a horse. He was still at the front of the team, but he slowly moved to the back.
Looking at the team that was going away, Lu Li became anxious. He hurriedly patted the horse's rump to urge it to move forward.
Di Ba was going to tear him into pieces, and the warriors of the Zhao Family would not let him go either. If he were to leave the team, he would die for sure.
Even if one did not eat pork, he had seen pigs run.
Lu Li followed suit. Finally, the horse managed to gallop away with the team.
However, he was a bit miserable. He kept bumping up and down. He fell off several times and had to jump up and get back on the horse again …
"Ha, ha, ha, look at that man!"
"He is from the Liu Family?
How come he looks like a clown? "
Many pedestrians on the street laughed when they saw Lu Li getting off the horse from time to time, running like a monkey and jumping back on the horse.
Warriors were so common in the Wu Ling County. Who didn't know how to ride a horse?
After being thrown off for more than a dozen times, Lu Li finally lost his temper. He raised his hand and slapped the head of the horse.
How strong was Lu Li?
Otherwise, the horse's head would have been smashed into pieces.
"Hiss ~"
The horse was in pain. It raised its front hooves high and neighed to the sky. Lu Li fell off again.
However, when he got back on the horse, the horse was much more obedient this time. It ran more steadily, so Lu Li didn't get thrown off.
"Go now, or I will slap you to death!"
Lu Li stared at the horse and shouted in a deep voice. He emitted a faint killing intent. The horse seemed to be scared and behaved. It ran wildly and caught up with the team.
Soon, they got out of the north city gate. Lu Li had mastered some tricks. He swayed his body with the rhythm of the horse so that he would not be thrown off and he would not be as tired as before.
"Eh?"
Once they were out of the city, Liu Yi steered the silver wolf to a stop. She waited for everyone to arrive before glancing back.
She looked back when she saw that Lu Li had caught up with her so quickly.
Liu Yu just told her that Lu Li did not know how to ride a horse, so she stopped at the city gate.
She didn't expect that in such a short time, Lu Li had learned it. Also, it seemed that he could control the horse now.
"Let's go!"
She didn't say anything. She galloped towards the north again. Hundreds of people followed her closely, running in two neat lines.
The cold light reflected off the armors formed two lines, meandering away.
"Lu Li is out of the county. He is with Liu Yi. They must have gone to the Frigid Cloud Mountain!"
Two middle-aged men in civilian attire at the city gate looked at the portrait. They quickly walked into the county and entered a yard.
After a while, a goshawk flew out from the yard. It soared into the clouds and flew straight to the north.
Two scouts walked out from the yard. They looked towards the north with their snake-like eyes. One of them sneered and said, "Ha, ha, Lu Li, how dare you leave the county?
You will die even if you go with Liu Yi! "
"Yes!"
The other one nodded and said, "The Frigid Cloud Mountain is a mess right now. Several families and forces, dozens of tribes are all there. Xuan Beasts are everywhere.
It is said that Patriarch Di has taken elixirs and reached the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm?
It is too easy to kill him. Liu Yi can't be with him every day, can she? "
"Hmm!"
The first one sneered and said, "So what if Liu Yi is with him?
The Liu Family has gone through a great change. So many people have died.
We, the Zhao Family, have established a relationship with Lord Yu. Maybe in a few months, the Wu Ling County will be ours. "
"That's true …"
The other one echoed, "Even if Patriarch Di kills Lu Li by force, what can the Liu Family say?
Let's go. Our mission is accomplished. We don't have to worry about what happens next. "
