Lu Li hadn't figured out how to deal with Ji Mengyao and Yang Yu. Killing them would bring him endless troubles, but letting them go would not make him happy. Lu Li might as well throw them into the Ding of Barbarian God so that they could suffer and vent their anger.
Lu Li and Hu Lang discussed for a while and decided to carry out Lu Ling's plan. They would attack other cities until Lu Ling sent a message for them to go back.
There were still two and a half months before the auction at the Great Buddhist Temple started. Lu Li still had time. Also, he needed to send someone to make sure. What if Yang Yu was lying?
What if it was a trap?
Hu Lang and Hu Lang flew to the Dragon City where they agreed to meet. On their way, they ran into some warriors of the Silver Wolf Mountain.
Lu Li asked one of them to go back and tell Lu Ling what had happened here. He also asked her to send someone to verify the authenticity of the Bodhi Fruit at the Great Buddhist Temple.
Three days later, they arrived at the Dragon City in the central region with more than a dozen warriors. Hu Lang didn't wait for everyone to arrive. He went into the city directly.
There was only one Ji Mengyao. This trap could not be set up twice. Not so many people could build such a horrifying formation twice.
As expected, this time, the shield outside was broken easily. They killed their way into the city. Another storm of blood ensued. Warriors in the city were slaughtered. Blood flowed like a river …
After killing tens of thousands of warriors in the city, Hu Lang left with Lu Li and the others. They stayed nearby and waited for everyone to gather.
A day later, almost all the survivors at the Black Tortoise City had gathered. Only two warriors were missing. They might have arrived too late or they were killed.
Hu Lang decided not to wait any longer. He went back to the Dragon City and left by Teleportation Formation. He was ready to massacre the entire city.
He didn't believe that the Serenity Plains army wouldn't retreat when the entire Serenity Plains was bathed in blood.
Lu Li didn't have the heart to do that. Many families in the cities might not send troops to attack the Clouds Plains, which meant that many families and warriors were innocent.
Lu Li mentioned this to Hu Lang but he didn't take Lu Li's advice.
Hu Lang thought this was a war between the Serenity Plains and the Clouds Plains. Now that the Serenity Plains army was at the Clouds Plains, many innocent people would be killed.
If Hu Lang didn't kill them, the Serenity Plains army wouldn't retreat. By then, more people would die at the Clouds Plains.
If the Clouds Plains army was defeated, everyone would die. Many people at the Silver Wolf Mountain would be killed …
Lu Li was speechless. He had to follow Hu Lang and the others. The only thing he could do was to forbid warriors from killing civilians. As for warriors, he would not stop them.
Warriors' fate was death. Warriors must face death and they must be with death and with the fact that they could be killed at any time.
Just like that …
They slaughtered city after city. They teleported all the way, and their speed was too fast. Moreover, they didn't have a fixed direction. After teleporting to a random city, they started slaughtering.
With Hu Lang and Lu Li here, nobody at the Serenity Plains could stop them without a Human Sovereign Realm warrior.
Hu Lang had made up his mind. He almost died at the Black Tortoise City. He decided that if Lu Ling did not send him a message, he would raze all the big cities at the Serenity Plains to the ground. He would wipe out all the low-level warriors at the Serenity Plains so that the Serenity Plains would not be able to recover for decades.
On the 13th day, they arrived at the Crystal City, the headquarter of the Palace of Crystal. They teleported in directly so the shield outside didn't work.
Hu Lang was the first one to arrive. He fended off the attacks from the Noble Lord Realm warriors and slaughtered for a while with the Force Field. By the time Lu Li and the others arrived, the situation was under control.
Six hours later, the Crystal City was in ruins. At least tens of thousands of warriors were killed and hundreds of thousands of warriors escaped.
Hu Lang ordered the others to hunt for them for six hours and then they were ready to teleport to the Star City where the Star Alliance was located to destroy the main city of the last force of the Serenity Plains.
"Bang!"
A jade talisman on Hu Lang's waist cracked. Lu Li breathed in relief. Finally, the killing was over.
How many did they kill during this time?
Lu Li couldn't remember. He himself must have killed at least tens of thousands.
Lu Li didn't like this kind of killing, because the difference in strength was too great. It felt like he was slaughtering civilians. Lu Li wanted to puke at the sight of blood.
"Let's go back!"
A glint of regret flashed in Hu Lang's eyes. He seemed to be unhappy that he couldn't kill people at the Star City.
Hu Lang was a violent man. He wouldn't bat an eyelid even if he had to kill tens of millions, let alone so few.
Anyone that could become an overlord must have killed his way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
They teleported several times. When they arrived at the north of the Serenity Plains, they flew directly to the cave at the Clouds Plains.
This time, they had to hide their tracks. The Teleportation Formation could not be exposed. There was a passageway to the Deserted World there.
Two days later, they arrived at the cave where the Teleportation Formation was. Two Noble Lord Realm warriors of the Silver Wolf Mountain were waiting for them.
Lu Li asked as soon as he entered, "How is the war at the Clouds Plains?"
The two of them were obviously waiting here to pass on the military intelligence. One of them immediately grinned and said, "Very good. The Holy Maiden has a brilliant plan. The army of Serenity Province has been completely routed.
Two Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Serenity Plains were killed and the other four were captured. They have joined the Empire of Clouds Prowess and are at our disposal. "
"Oh?"
Lu Li was overjoyed. Hu Lang, on the other hand, had mixed feelings.
Clearly, he meant that the four Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Serenity Plains had taken the Fire Phoenix Soul Pellet and had become her slaves just like Hu Lang.
Lu Li didn't care what Hu Lang was thinking. He stared at the warrior in front of him and asked, "Tell me the details. What is the specific situation?"
The Noble Lord Realm warrior of the Silver Wolf Mountain said with admiration, "As soon as the Serenity Plains was attacked, the Serenity Plains army received the news. Their morale dropped but they didn't retreat. Instead, they marched forward at full speed, ready to attack the Drifting Cloud City.
Saintess mobilized several generals to launch sneak attacks on the Serenity Plains. Every time, they would kill some and then run away. This made the morale of the Serenity Plains even more unstable. "
"At the same time, the emperor went out in person. He took several armies that were gathering at the Drifting Cloud City under orders. Flames of war raged everywhere. The Serenity Plains army suffered from our counterattack.
After the victory at the Black Tortoise City, the Serenity Plains army finally retreated. The four forces of the Serenity Plains had internal conflicts.
The Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Crystal Palace and the Alliance of Stars retreated first. However, they were ambushed twice by the emperor and Saintess. They killed two Human Sovereign Realm warriors and captured four.
Now, the emperor is hunting down the remaining warriors of the Serenity Plains. I think … they have reached the Serene Cloud Sea. After a while, they will reach the Serenity Plains. "
The Noble Lord Realm warrior's explanation was not very clear or complete. Lu Li and Hu Lang did get the gist of it and they had some inside information. The truth was not as simple as the Noble Lord Realm warrior made it out to be.
Hu Lang and Lu Li looked at each other. They felt it was a pity that they couldn't join the battle with Lu Ling and kill the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Serenity Plains themselves.
"Sister, you didn't let me down."
