Since he was born, Di Huo was the pride of the tribe. He enjoyed all the glory and splendor. He was treated like a lord by many people in the tribe.
He enjoyed this kind of life very much. He came to the Zhao Family to become stronger so that he could have a higher status and enjoy more glory and splendor.
Therefore, he was afraid of death. He could not bear to part with the superior life, the beauties in the Wu Ling County, and the bright future.
When Lu Li was about to kill him in the Di Long Tribe, he ran away. At this moment, he was scared out of his wits.
Lu Li could kill warriors at the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm as if they were cabbages. Even though Di Huo was a bit stronger than the other two, he still felt that he was no match for Lu Li.
Therefore, he was stunned for a second. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to run!
He wanted to run as far as he could to his father. He did not want to die.
Di Huo shouted, "All of you, surround and kill Lu Li!"
Just like in the tribe, Di Huo turned around and ran after he shouted.
However, this time, Lu Li would not be fooled. Also, Di Huo forgot one thing. It was not a flat land ahead of him. There were many poisonous snakes.
It just so happened that those poisonous snakes had received Little White's order and would not attack Lu Li …
Lu Li did not have to look back to know that there was still some distance between him and the people behind him. He carried his Heaven Kylin Sword and rushed towards Di Huo in strides.
The few remaining warriors of the Zhao Family in the distance were furious when they saw Di Huo running away by himself.
If it were not for the fact that Di Huo forced himself to go up the mountain, how could so many of them die?
On top of that, Lu Li's bravery made them want to retreat. They left Di Huo alone and helped him to break through the encirclement on the left.
"Swish, swish ~"
In front of Di Huo, poisonous snakes swarmed towards him. Di Huo was furious, but there was nothing he could do except to kill them with his long sword.
Lu Li rushed towards him. He swung his Heaven Kylin Sword in a semicircle and cut at Di Huo's back.
Hearing the sound of wind, Di Huo rolled on the ground and dodged Lu Li's attack. His long sword flashed and cut two poisonous snakes in half.
He turned around and looked at Lu Li, clenched his teeth and said, "Lu Li, I have wronged you and your sister. You also killed Di Tian and the others.
My father is now the External Clan Patriarch of the Zhao Family and is highly valued by the Family Patriarch. Killing me will do you no good.
If you let me go, how about we put an end to this? "
What responded to Di Huo was a huge broken sword with a whistling sound. Lu Li didn't want to waste any more words with Di Huo. His eyes were as determined as steel. He would not stop until he killed Di Huo.
"Clang, clang ~"
Di Huo could only clench his teeth and retaliate. His long sword slid and the Heavenly Kylin Blade created sparks.
Lu Li used the Xuan Skill, Water Cloud Sword, passed down to him by Di Ba. Even though it had the word "sword" in its name, it was still quite powerful when used with a sword. The sword moves were endless like waves. Lu Li was forced to step back.
What a pity …
The venomous snakes in the vicinity kept attacking him. Di Huo only attacked for seven or eight times before he had no choice but to withdraw his sword and fend off the venomous snakes that were shooting at him.
Lu Li saw his chance. He held his saber with both hands and hacked at Di Huo for four or five times.
"Clang, clang, clang ~"
Di Huo was prepared for this. He held his sword tightly and managed to block Lu Li's attack.
His hands were numb, and the blood in his chest was churning. His ears were ringing, and he was seeing stars.
"Chi, chi ~"
Two venomous snakes sprang up and spat out venom. One of them hit the back of Di Huo's neck, and the other hit the left side of his head.
The venom of the Black Scorch Snake was highly corrosive. Di Huo instantly felt as if the back of his neck and the left side of his head were on fire. He reached out his hands and scratched off several pieces of skin. He cried out in pain.
"Swish ~"
Taking advantage of your weakness, Lu Li thought to himself. A glint of coldness flashed in his eyes. His long saber glowed and he hacked at Di Huo's head. Lu Li exerted all his strength in this move, trying to kill Di Huo with one move.
"No —"
Di Huo shouted in terror. He actually stopped fighting back. Instead, he knelt down and shouted, "Lu Li, I am wrong. Don't kill me, don't!"
Lu Li's Sword Momentum paused for a moment. Then the long saber continued to cut down. Di Huo's head was split open like a watermelon. His body was almost split into two halves. He could not be more dead.
If it were before, Lu Li might have stopped just now.
During the battle in the tribe, Lu Ling's words of warning were still echoing in his ears. Lu Li grew up with Lu Ling and was deeply influenced by her.
After several battles, he had become cold-blooded and merciless. There was only one thought in his mind when facing his enemies, and that was … to kill without mercy.
Looking at Di Huo's body for a moment, Lu Li calmed himself down.
He looked into the distance and his eyes became cold again. Carrying his Heaven Kylin Sword, he ran away madly.
Those men did not go far. Apart from two, all of them were wounded.
Two of them were seriously injured. They would not be able to walk without someone's help.
In the direction they were running towards, there were countless Black Scorch Snakes …
The result was self-evident. Even though Lu Li did not know Xuan Skill, his strength was comparable to that of a warrior of the Spirit Sea Realm.
Little White had been following him, so the poisonous snakes would not attack him. On the other hand, the enemies had to worry about the poisonous snakes' attacks and had to protect their companions. The gap between their fighting capacities was too wide.
In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the few that ran away had all turned into cold corpses. The only one left had one leg cut off.
Lu Li was decisive in his killing and showed no mercy. Of course, he left one alive to interrogate the enemy.
He asked Little White to control the poisonous snakes to move away. Stepping on the warrior of the Zhao Family with a broken leg, Lu Li said in a cold voice, "How many people are after me?
Where is Zhao Rui? "
This time, Zhao Rui did not show up. Lu Li was worried.
That man's leg was broken. He was trembling because of the pain. A glint of hatred appeared in his eyes. He clenched his teeth and said, "Kill me if you want. If I tell you, all my family members will die. If you are a man, then give me a quick death."
It seemed that this man's family members were all in the Wu Ling County. He was afraid that the Zhao Family would seek revenge, so he kept his mouth shut.
Lu Li thought about it and said in a cold voice, "If I don't tell you, nobody will know that you told me. How can the Zhao Family make trouble for your family?
And … if you don't tell me, I will kill your entire family when I get back to the county. I am a man of my word. "
"You …"
That man spat out some blood. His eyes flickered and he said helplessly, "Young Master Rui and Uncle Scar went to the Frigid Cloud Mountain to stop you.
There are four or five of them. Young Master Rui and Uncle Scar are both at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm.
I have told you. Give me a quick death. "
"Swish!"
Lu Li swung his Heaven Kylin Sword and gave the man a quick death.
Lu Li frowned and his mind was weighed down. He had guessed right. There were two warriors of the Spirit Sea Realm here and they were waiting for him at the foot of the Frigid Cloud Mountain.
Maybe they would mobilize the warriors of the Zhao Family in the Frigid Cloud Mountain. If Lu Li still wanted to go to the Red Stone Mountain, he would be in grave danger.
"Squeak, squeak ~"
Little White ran over happily. It grabbed a handful of Xuan Artifact and started to chew on it. It finished the Xuan Artifact in no time.
"Don't chew on this. These are all Xuan Artifacts. They are valuable."
Lu Li felt his heart ache. The Xuan Artifacts these people carried were above the Third Rank of the Human Grade. They could be worth a lot of Golden Leaves.
Lu Li collected all the Xuan Artifacts and searched around in the corpses. He got some Golden Leaves and two Secret Books.
Then he carefully collected all the crossbow bolts. It was not easy to make these bolts, and there was too little poison. Lu Ling only made four.
She used one to kill Di Han at the Di Long Tribe. Now there were only three left. Naturally, Lu Li wanted to get them all back.
Dawn was breaking in the east. The sky was getting brighter. Lu Li glanced at the two Secret Books in the glow. He lost interest when he found they were only Xuan Skills of low levels. He threw them into his bag and left them there.
Lu Li tied the Xuan Artifacts with the bag and shouted to Little White, "Get some poisonous snakes here. Eat all the corpses. Don't leave any traces."
Little White screamed. Countless poisonous snakes swarmed over and started to eat the corpses. Soon, all the corpses turned into white bones.
The armors were all in tatters. At first, many armors were intact. However, those were the armors of the Zhao Family, so Lu Li would not wear them.
"What should I do?"
Lu Li left the battlefield and went back to the wild. He sat on a rock, drinking water and eating dried meat. He was deep in thought with the map given by the Hall of Missions in his hand.
If he took a detour back, it should be safe. However, he would not be able to complete the task this time. 100 contribution points would be deducted, and Little White would have no food.
If he went to the Frigid Cloud Mountain, it would be extremely dangerous. He might die in the mountain.
"Let's go!"
Finally, Lu Li looked at Little White and ran towards the north with his teeth clenched.
This little beast was amazing. It could control Xuan Beasts of the First Rank now. Once it grew up, its valiance would be beyond Lu Li's imagination.
