"Boom, boom, boom ~"
The waves were getting stronger and stronger. The island was collapsing. Rocks and mud were washed away by the waves. Leng Wushang and the others were both worried and excited at the same time.
The secret area was destroyed. A land of treasures was gone. This indirectly indicated that something big must have happened in the Forbidden Ground of Elder God. Many places would be turned upside down. Some hidden secret areas would be revealed and many treasures would come to light.
"Let's go!"
When half of the island was washed away, Leng Wushang decided to leave this secret area alone. He would look for a new one and start his treasure hunt.
Treasure hunt!
Regardless of whether it was the young or the old, powerful treasures were very attractive. Not to mention Divine Artifacts, even Semi-Divine Artifacts would be fought over if they appeared.
Although there were many experts in the various realms, no one had a Divine Artifact. If any family could get their hands on a Divine Artifact, they would be able to obtain it.
If any family could get a Relic, they could even unify all the universes, let alone this one.
Leng Wushang took the lead and ran upstream along the Heng River. He wanted to see what had happened upstream that caused the river to rise and the waves.
They sped up. They didn't take out their Bead of Life and were only running on foot. Still, they could reach the initial stage of the Noble Lord Realm.
They were taking care of Lu Li. Otherwise, they could be as fast as the later stage of the Noble Lord Realm.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
They had been running for six hours. The river was still raging. They were getting more and more excited.
Something big must have happened upstream because of such a drastic change. Valuable treasures might have emerged.
Ten hours later!
The waves were getting smaller. Leng Wushang yelled, "Hurry up. We are not far away."
Leng Tianba threw Lu Li a look. He picked him up with one hand and was about to take him away.
Lu Li grinned. It was more comfortable to have someone carrying him. He didn't have to worry about triggering any Inhibition Formations.
They sped up. Leng Wuxin took Leng Wumi with her. Both of them sped up and ran along the river.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
They had been running for an hour when they heard some loud noises. Leng Wushang, who was at the front, waved his hand to stop.
He listened for a while and said with a frown, "Eight people are fighting, four Earth Immortal Realm warriors and four Human Sovereign Realm warriors."
"Four Earth Immortal Realm warriors?"
Leng Wushang and Leng Wuxin frowned. It must be a super family. Otherwise, there wouldn't be two Earth Immortal Realm warriors accompanying them.
"I'll go check it out!"
Leng Wushuang signaled Leng Tianba with his eyes, then sneaked forward by himself.
Spiritual will couldn't be used here, and there was a dense fog everywhere. Only by approaching would one know which clan's disciple was from.
Leng Wushang and the others didn't move. They weren't in a hurry. They had to figure out what was going on first.
They waited nearby. After the time for one incense stick to burn, Leng Wushuang came back and reported, "Warriors of two super families of the Mage Imperial Universe are fighting. There is a new secret area nearby with a cave. The two families must be fighting over the cave."
"From the Mage Imperial Universe?"
Leng Wushang felt a headache coming on. Of the four universes, the last one he wanted to face was the Mage Imperial Universe. He and the other two universes feared to run into the Mage Imperial Universe as well.
Warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe were all lunatics. Once they were provoked, they would fight to the death.
Unless you kill them, they will hunt you down for the next eleven months …
"Mage Imperial Universe!"
Lu Li made a mental note of Leng Wumi's explanation in a low voice. Warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe were a good weapon. He could make use of them if he had the chance.
"There is only one cave nearby?"
Leng Wushang asked. Leng Wushuang nodded. Leng Wushang waved his hand and said, "Let's go around. Don't get into conflict with the warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe. Let's keep going upstream."
The others nodded. Clearly, they didn't want to get into conflict with the warriors of the Mage Imperial Universe. They took a detour and then went upstream.
The ancient Inhibition Formations were triggered. Many places in the Forbidden Ground would change. There must be more than one new secret area. There was no need to stick to one tree.
They moved on. This time, they walked for a whole day. Finally, they stopped. They found a new land of treasures.
There was a hill by the riverside!
The Forbidden Ground of Elder God was mostly flat land and covered with forests. There were few mountains.
According to the records of the Leng Family, there were no hills here. Now that there was one, it must be a land of treasures.
"There is a cave over there!"
Leng Tianba suddenly shouted. Everyone's eyes glowed. Through the mist, they could see a cave in a corner of the hill. The cave was small and could only fit one person.
"There must be treasures in there!"
Leng Wumi yelled. Usually, there would be treasures in new caves. The Leng Family had at least 10 Quasi Relics in the Forbidden Ground of Elder God.
Leng Wushang threw Leng Tianba a look. The latter understood his intention and dashed toward the cave. Lu Li was envious.
But with the Earth Immortal Realm warrior of the Leng Family, how could he dare to take the treasures?
Even if he did, Leng Wuxin would take the treasures, not to mention that he couldn't.
Leng Tianba went in first. Leng Wushang walked to the entrance of the cave and said to Lu Li with a smile, "Brother Lu, you wait outside with Sister Wuxin and Wumi. There are always great dangers in caves like this. Let's go in and take a look. We will share the treasures."
Leng Wushang went in with Leng Wushuang. Lu Li sneered to himself. Share the treasures? The Leng Family must have taken all the good stuff.
"Brother Wushang, I want to take a look as well!"
Leng Wumi was young and restless. Naturally, she wouldn't want to wait outside.
If she went in, she could ask Leng Wushang for treasures that suited her. There was nothing outside.
Leng Wumi went in but Leng Wuxin didn't move. Lu Li was excited. He tried to persuade Leng Wuxin, "Young Lady Wuxin, don't you want to go in and take a look?"
Leng Wuxin threw him a cold look but didn't say anything. Lu Li continued, "What if there are Relics?
Ha, ha, we cannot let them all take them. "
"Slap ~"
Leng Wuxin slapped Lu Li away. Looking at Lu Li who was crawling up in astonishment, Leng Wuxin sneered, "Young Master Lu, don't forget who you are. If you dare to flirt with me again, I will kill you."
Leng Wuxin seemed to be saying that Lu Li had flirted with her. But the deeper meaning was clear — to remind Lu Li not to forget who he really was and not to think of himself as a big shot. For Leng Wuxin, he was just a dog, a dog that would bite on her behalf.
Lu Li's face was burning. He was filled with killing intent. This was the first time in his life that he had been slapped in the face, and it was by a woman. The humiliation almost drove him mad.
"Phew, phew ~"
He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the killing intent in him. He forced a smile.
It seemed that … he had lost his sense of measure.
Had he forgotten his real situation?
That slap had woken him up!
That was right. He was a dog in Leng Wuxin's hands, a dog that could be killed by its master at any time.
Leng Wuxin had been polite.
But deep down, she didn't see him as a human being. She saw him as a tool that could be thrown away when she was done with him.
Because of the Token of the Blood Emperor, Lu Li was treated well at the Leng Family. Even the most powerful young master of the Leng Family, the future crown prince, treated him with respect.
It seemed that Lu Li really thought of himself as the apprentice of the Blood Emperor, as a big shot. He had forgotten the real situation and the hidden fatal danger …
"Lu Li, Lu Li!
You are dancing on the tip of a knife. One wrong move and you will be smashed into pieces. "
Lu Li closed his eyes and blamed himself.
Lu Ling and Bai Qiuxue were still waiting for him to go back. When the 10 years were up, the armies of the four forces would swarm into the Clouds Plains, Serenity Plains and the Northern Desert. Countless civilians and armies would be slaughtered.
