Five days passed by quickly. Tens of millions of civilians in the Samsara City had been relocated. Now, there were less than five million warriors left.
All of them were above the Eternal Realm. Not a single one of them was at the Fate Wheel Realm.
The city was under martial law. Nobody was allowed to go in or out. Many Noble Lord Realm warriors were patrolling. Not even a fly could sneak in.
In the middle of the city was a large plaza with a radius of at least three miles. Many warriors were gathered in the plaza. There must be at least one million. Among them, two hundred thousand were at the Noble Lord Realm and quite a few were at the Human Sovereign Realm.
The one million warriors gathered in circles, layer after layer.
There was a makeshift platform in the center of the circle. Ten large round pillars were erected on the platform, and a person was tied to each pillar with a green iron chain.
Lu Feixue, Bai Xiashuang, Ye Cha, Madam Yan, Bai Leng …
There were 10 of them. They weren't tortured but they must have been fed some special drugs.
They were pale and weak. They didn't even have the strength to move a finger, let alone use Xuan Energy.
The 10 were hanging on the pillars. They squinted so they could see the entire plaza clearly. They could see the warriors on the plaza and the more powerful warriors lurking around.
Mountains of blades and seas of swords!
The Samsara Palace was a huge trap. It was easy to get in but difficult to get out. No … it should be that once they were in, they could not get out.
Lu Feixue, Ye Cha, and the others could not move or use psychic power. That being said, they could tell how many powerful warriors were lurking around the plaza. Almost all the Earth Immortal Realm warriors of the four families were here.
"Ling-er, Qiuxue, don't come."
Lu Feixue moved her lips and prayed. If she could commit suicide, she would have done so.
The moment she was captured, she knew this day would come. Lu Feixue felt guilty and blamed herself for implicating others.
…
On the second floor of a huge castle to the north of the plaza, a group of powerful warriors gathered together.
Lu Suan, Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, and Die Feiyu were all here but they were standing behind powerful warriors of their families.
Master of the Samsara Palace, Pavilion of Blossoms, Master of the Hades Society, and Lu Zhengtan were all here.
It was self-evident that the four Royal Family Patriarchs had come in person. They wanted to wash away the shame that Lu Li had brought upon them. They wanted to kill Lu Li and all his warriors.
He wanted everyone in the Divine Great Land to know that the majesty of the Royal Family could not be challenged. Anyone who challenged him would die!
Great Grandfather Five, the Great Patriarch of the Lu Family, was not with Lu Zhengtan. Instead, there was a middle-aged man who looked similar to Lu Zhengtan. Standing next to the middle-aged man were Lu Fenghuo and Lu Liantian.
This person was the Great Elder of the Lu Clan, Lu Tiandi, who had been in seclusion for a long time. More than a year ago, he finally broke through to the Earth Immortal Realm.
Lu Feixue, who was Lu Zhengtan's niece, was going to be executed this time.
Therefore, Lu Zhengtan didn't dare to bring Great Grandfather Five with him. He only brought his three sons and a few loyal elders of the External Clan with him. He was afraid that the other elders of the Lu Family would cause trouble …
Ji Ao 'xian, the Master of the Samsara Palace, did not appear to be old. He was a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance.
The leader of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion was a silver-haired old woman with a kind and benevolent countenance. She didn't look like the leader of a royal family at all.
Yang Bucheng, the Master of the Hades Society, was wearing a black cloak. Only half of his face could be seen. His eyes glowed red every now and then. Many juniors didn't have the courage to look him in the eye.
They sat on the second floor in silence. There were several windows on the second floor. They could see what was going on in the plaza. They were waiting quietly, waiting for the moment when the net would be pulled in.
Time moved on. They were holding their breaths. They believed that someone would come. At the very least … Lu Ling would come.
"Whoosh ~"
Two hours later, a man dashed in. He dropped to one knee in front of Ji Ao 'xian and reported, "Master, there are two Walking Puppets at the Luna Destroyer City. They have suffered heavy casualties. Please help."
"Hmm!"
Ji Ao 'xian snorted, "Lure the tiger away from the mountain. Let Patriarch 10 and Patriarch 16 go there with some people. I don't need them to kill the Walking Puppets. I just need them to hold off the Walking Puppets for one day."
There weren't many civilians in the nearby cities. As for the low-level warriors, it didn't matter if some of them died or were injured.
The Central Plains didn't have many things except for people. For Ji Ao 'xian, low-level warriors were no different from pigs and dogs.
"Ha, ha!"
Yang Bucheng, Master of the Hades Society, let out a strange laugh but said nothing.
The old lady from the Pavilion of Blossoms smiled as well. The fact that the nearby cities were under attack meant that Lu Ling was here.
No matter what they did, their ultimate goal was to save Lu Feixue, Bai Xiashuang and the others. They only needed to stay here and Lu Ling and the others would come to their doom sooner or later.
Lu Zhengtan sighed. Lu Ling was his grandniece. No matter what the result was, his reputation would not be preserved.
What was more …
It was shameful for a bunch of old guys to threaten a bunch of young people with hostages.
"Report!"
An hour later, another military report came in. Another nearby city was under attack, and two Puppet Beasts had appeared there.
Ji Ao 'xian was not moved. Instead, he sneered.
The more Walking Puppets Lu Ling sent out, the fewer cards she had. He refused to believe that Lu Ling had an endless supply of Walking Puppets.
He only sent out two Human Sovereign Realm patriarchs and none of the Earth Immortal Realm warriors.
It was difficult for the two patriarchs to fend off two Walking Puppets with a group of warriors. But Ji Ao 'xian did not send more warriors.
An hour later, another big city nearby was attacked by Walking Puppets. There were four guard cities around the Samsara Palace, and now three of them were under attack.
Everyone was excited. When the last city was under attack, Lu Ling would come to the Samsara City.
Another hour later, two Walking Puppets showed up outside the last city.
The two Walking Puppets smashed through the city wall and then began to rampage in the city, killing everyone in sight …
The atmosphere in the Samsara City became tense. The fact that four satellite cities were under attack was a sign that Lu Ling was going to attack the Samsara City. Soon, a war would break out.
Time went by bit by bit. It was already noon, but no one appeared near the Samsara Palace.
The millions of soldiers in the city were waiting anxiously, feeling extremely restless.
It was a quarter to three!
The space to the south of the Samsara Palace began to tremble. Then, a group of people showed up in midair. The Interspatial Ring of a beautiful lady was glaring. Then, many huge iron beasts came out.
One, five, 10 …
The Interspatial Ring glowed for 14 times. 14 Walking Puppets came out and dashed toward the Samsara Palace.
The space around that group of people began to tremble. Soon, they vanished on the spot.
"Boom!"
For today's war, the Samsara Palace had opened all the city gates. Not even the shield was activated so that Lu Ling and the others could get in.
Therefore, the 14 Walking Puppets smashed through the city wall without any trouble and dashed into the city.
"Eh?"
Ji Ao 'xian and the others had been checking the city with psychic power. They noticed the 14 Walking Puppets at once.
They were surprised. How could Lu Ling have so many Walking Puppets?
Based on her calculations, she had at least released dozens of puppet beasts.
They turned to Ji Ao 'xian who waved his hand and said, "Don't do anything. Lu Ling wants us to be in chaos.
Fourteen Puppet Beasts, I can easily send people to stop them. "
"Someone!"
Ji Ao 'xian shouted, "Ask Great Patriarch to send two people to suppress the Walking Puppets. We cannot let them get to the plaza."
