"Not a seventh-rank force!"
Yu Huashen made up his mind after some thoughts. He took out a map of the Central Plains and said, "We are now in the northeast. This is the territory of the Palace of Heaven's Roars, one of the 12 Royal Families.
If it were a seventh-rank force, they would have done something already. They wouldn't have to wait until now. "
Lu Li and Yu Huashen agreed. There were two seventh-rank forces under the Palace of Heaven's Roars. If the two forces wanted to do something to them, they wouldn't have to worry about the Pavilion of Delicacy.
Yu Huashen thought about it and said, "If so, then it must be a sixth-rank force at the northeast.
This is probably not their territory. They don't want to alert us so they sent someone to keep an eye on us. Once we enter their territory, they will send someone to take us down. "
Now that they were in the territory of the Palace of Heaven's Roars, the sixth-rank forces at the north wouldn't cross over to take them. Then it must be a sixth-rank force at the northeast.
There were many sixth-rank forces at the northeast of the Central Plains, nine in total, five more than the Pavilion of Delicacy at the north.
There used to be two seventh-rank forces at the north and many sixth-rank forces as well.
However, because of the fight between the two seventh-rank forces, several sixth-rank forces joined in. In the end, they all suffered great losses and were reduced to fifth-rank forces.
Nine sixth-rank forces were hard to guess. Lu Li had only heard of the names of the nine sixth-rank forces, but he didn't know where they were.
If they were to teleport rashly and accidentally enter the territory of a force that had their eyes on them, they would be walking into a tiger's den.
"How about …"
Lu Li thought about it and said, "How about we teleport to the south and enter the central part of the Central Plains, then turn to the east and go to the Mystic Armor Region?"
"It doesn't matter where we go!"
Yu Huashen shook his head and said, "The enemies are in the dark and we are in the light. They have a huge force but we are only three. They will catch up with us wherever we go.
What we need to do now is to figure out who they are. "
Yu Huashen was the Family Patriarch of a fifth-rank family, one of the overlords of the Heaven Martial Kingdom. Lu Li and Ming Yu could not compete with him in all kinds of tricks.
Lu Li saw that Yu Huashen seemed to have a plan so he said nothing and waited for his explanation.
"Later, when we leave the tavern, we will rush out of the city!"
Yu Huashen lowered his voice and said, "When we are out of the city, Ming Yu will hide. We will keep moving forward. Ming Yu will take down the people behind us and then we will interrogate them about the force behind them."
Ming Yu will be the one who is behind us. "
Alright! "
Lu Li and Ming Yu nodded. The three of them discussed some more details before they put on their disguises and went out.
Once outside, the three of them immediately merged into the crowd and quickly rushed out of the city.
They sped up after they were out of the city. Ming Yu sneaked into a small hill nearby when they were more than three miles away from the city. Lu Li and Yu Huashen kept on running.
"Whoosh ~"
Not long after, the two scouts caught up with him. It had to be said that the two scouts were very good, much better than the scouts from the Northern Desert.
These two scouts seemed to have cultivated some kind of special mystical skill. Their speed was as fast as the wind, and they were elusive and traceless. From time to time, they would borrow the nearby small trees, hills, and rocks to hide themselves.
He didn't make any noise along the way. Even though he was only at the Fate Wheel Realm, he was as fast as the Eternal Realm.
Ming Yu hid behind a small mountain. He did not use his Spiritual Force, nor did he try to probe. He just relied on his senses.
When the two scouts got close, he instantly released his power and suppressed them.
Yu Huashen didn't do anything. He asked Ming Yu to stay because Ming Yu's Force was better at suppressing warriors of lower realms.
Ming Yu moved and hit the two scouts' heads with one hand. They were knocked out and then he took them to chase after Lu Li and Ming Huashen.
Yu Huashen and Lu Li were waiting for Ming Yu a couple of miles ahead. Seeing Ming Yu coming over, Yu Huashen took Lu Li and rushed into the mountain.
In the depth of the mountain, Yu Huashen asked Ming Yu and Lu Li to rest while he went around.
Making sure that there were no scouts following them, he came back, took out two pellets from his ring and put them into the mouths of the two middle-aged scouts.
"What are these?"
Lu Li looked at Yu Huashen with curiosity. The latter explained with a grin, "Soul Corpse Pellet. After they take these two pellets, their souls will suffer the pain of being bitten by thousands of insects.
This kind of pain is hard to bear. At the Northern Desert, we often use this pellet to interrogate prisoners. "
Ming Yu nodded, indicating that he had heard about this pellet.
Yu Huashen looked at Ming Yu who understood. He was ready to release his Force to suppress the two scouts in case they committed suicide.
After a while, the two scouts woke up. They were woken up by the pain of the Soul Corpse Pellet.
As soon as they woke up, they held their heads and rolled around. Ming Yu released his Force so that the two scouts could not move. They had to endure the pain of being bitten by thousands of insects.
"Ah ~"
Soon, the two of them screamed in pain. Their expressions became ferocious. Blood flowed out of their eyes, ears, noses and mouths and they were trembling.
Ming Yu continued to suppress them with a straight face. After the time for two incense sticks to burn, the two scouts almost had a nervous breakdown.
"Okay now!"
Yu Huashen picked up one scout with one hand and walked away, leaving one for Ming Yu.
Lu Li stayed with Ming Yu. He understood Yu Huashen's intention. It would be easier to interrogate them separately. Lu Li could also compare the two scouts to see if they were lying.
Ming Yu stepped on the scout's chest, looked at him coldly and said, "The Soul Corpse Pellet will take effect again in the time for one incense stick to burn. If you don't want to suffer that pain again, then tell me the truth.
Don't even think about killing yourself. I am here. You will not die. "
The scout stared at Ming Yu with hatred in his eyes. He clenched his teeth and said nothing. Lu Li looked at him and said, "Even if you don't say anything, your friends will. You are just a servant. For us, it doesn't matter whether we kill you or not.
Of course, if you want to be tortured to death, just nod your head and we will not ask you any more questions. We will let you be bitten to death by insects. "
The scout's expressions changed. Lu Li said nothing for a while. Seeing that the scout had no intention to talk, Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Satisfy him."
Lu Li turned around and walked to a small tree. Ming Yu moved his leg and the scout's chest bones were broken bit by bit. Then Ming Yu moved his foot to the scout's hand and broke the scout's bones bit by bit …
"I will talk, I will talk!"
The scout could not stand it anymore. If he didn't talk, his bones would be broken bit by bit by Ming Yu.
Lu Li was relieved to hear this. At least, he could know which force or family was trying to deal with them now.
Before Lu Li could get the answer, Yu Huashen had finished.
Clearly, Yu Huashen's means were crueler than Ming Yu's. Lu Li and Ming Yu checked and found that the information was about the same.
Lu Li and the other two's expressions became gloomy after they learned the result. Their enemies were more powerful than they had imagined.
Yu Huashen's speculation was correct. It was not a seventh rank family that was targeting them, but a sixth rank family that ranked third at the northeast of the Central Plains, the Song Family.
The Song Family had two Human Sovereign Realm warriors, 18 at the Noble Lord Realm and five at the peak. The Song Family was a prominent family at the northeast of the Central Plains.
A disciple of the Song Family was in the Gargoyle Mountain and was saved by Lu Li.
The Song Family had learned about what happened to Lu Li at the Dan City. Not only did the Song Family want Little White, but they also wanted the Coffin of the Dragon King and the Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals Lu Li got at the Gargoyle Mountain.
Lu Li was at the territory of the Li Family, a sixth rank family. The Li Family and the Song Family had never been on good terms. Therefore, the Song Family sent someone to follow them.
