297 LI MENG’S REVENGE-(2)

The Crimson Lord world-

“Are you going through with this?” The Keeper asked.

“I am. How could I let go of my revenge? I would have just made a spectacle of their weakness and killed some small figures within the sect, but they violated the baseline. I could have easily taken care of the whole army except for those who were at the peak of Qi King If I had the help of a skilled Qi cultivator.”

“I didn’t expect them to give me any advanced Qi King due to the risk factor, but I did expect intermediate Qi king. I didn’t expect them to give me absolute trash.”

“Your group is filled with Qi generals. Those guys were no trash when compared to your group as of no.”

“All my group members are Qi King snow. Also, I have personally trained them and together they have the confidence to even kill an advance, QI King. The mongrels which I got are worthless shit who lie at the bottom of the chain in Mad-lions.”

“If it weren’t for my preparation with Qi bombs, no matter how skilled I was in leading people, we would have been exterminated.”

The Keeper couldn’t find an argument to deny the fact.

“I am going to cripple their organisation completely. It wouldn’t matter if they have QI emperors within their ranks, they are bound to be destroyed by me.”

.....

“You need to think this through. If you do attack the Mad-lions you aren’t just taking your revenge. There are consequences of your actions.”

“The Mad-lions dare to plot against me by giving the enemy information about me.”

“And yet you not only succeeded but annihilated half of the city forces, injuring the other half. This has taught the leaders of Mad-lions to take you seriously. That is the reason he is trying to extend a carrot to you.”

“It would soon be a burnt piece of carrot. I don’t need such a thing.”

“If you go through with this plan, you wouldn’t just have Mad-lions as your enemy. They would make sure that the city forces also knows that your group was responsible for their current state. You would have enemies on two frontiers and no one to help you.”

“You need to understand that they wouldn’t be able to conquer and unite the eastern region if you cripple them like this. You plan to take the throne from them, not build the throne yourself. You are just too impatient for something like that.”

“I guess you can say so.”

“Just reign in your feelings for now and bid your time. When the time comes, that guy would be sure to take revenge for you.”

“He wouldn’t even know that I did something like this. How do you expect him to take revenge?”

“You aren’t in a play. You could always take back your words and meet him once again before leaving. Update him on the current status and what his objective should be.”

“I have no interest in that. I gave him a task, and he is supposed to complete it. If he can’t, it means that he is just a worthless burden, who isn’t eligible to be a part of my force.”

“I need blood to appease my anger. So0meone is going to die today.”

........................

The core room-

The hall was shaking due to the loud explosion which occurred mear seconds ago.

“What is happening?”

“It is the work of Li Meng. He is the only one with the means to carry out something like this. We need to capture him before he could leave the base.”

“Take care of the explosives first. we can’t let the same thing repeatedly. The Mad-lions can’t bear losing a large fraction of our forces.”

“Second, you take charge of capturing Li Meng. Ti and I will be in charge of diffusing the explosives and safeguarding the base.”

The second Qi Emperor nodded his head and left the room. Lion Ti and the eldest Qi Emperor left for the other halls. Unknown to them, a figure emerged from the shadows. It was none other than Li Meng.

“Although I can’t kill you because of your utility, I do need to teach you a lesson.” Li Meng left for a passage that led even deeper into the Mad-lions base. It was where the Mad-lions treasury was. The two emperors guarded it by themselves.

“I guess we need to see what the Mad-lions saved until now.”

Li Meng rushed into the depths o the Mad-lions base, just to find out a big door obstructing the view. He pushed it open, just to find out that it wasn’t moving.

“They must have used some sort of formation to lock it in.”

“I didn’t expect bandits to be so resourceful. Could you assist me this time? I am in a rush.” The Keeper nodded in response. Li Meng began to open the treasury with the Keeper’s help.

..................

“Did you manage to find Li Meng?” The eldest asked the second brother.

“he is not present in any of the rooms. He must have hidden with the halls or the underground prison.”

“Ok. You need to rush to the prison. I will go to the halls. We need to find him. The bombs couldn’t be found by me. He must have hidden them somewhere where we couldn’t detect them. Only he could help us find it. Regroup the soldiers and send them to find him.”

The two figures nodded and left the room. Only Lion Ti remained. He thought about the possible location where Li Meng might be present.

“His objective wouldn’t be to destroy the Mad-lions as that wouldn’t benefit him in any way. The only feasible option is to do something which would affect the Mad-lions while not depleting our manpower.”

It was at this juncture that a thought came to his mind.

“What if he went to that place? But that should be a secret location unknown to most of the people in Mad-lions. Even if he reaches there, the formation guarding the room is not something he could breakthrough force.”

But something felt wrong with the situation. They couldn’t find any explosives in the Mad-lion base. Where were they exactly? Lion Ti tuned towards the inner rooms and rushed towards the treasury.

.................

The inner halls-

After a good amount of work, the formation was finally broken by Li Meng. He burst through the door after the formation was destroyed. Once inside, Li Meng saw huge piles of treasures lying all around the room. The resources present was enough to groom soldiers for the Mad-lions.

“The leaders must have spent a lot of effort to gather the treasures.”

Li meng decided to take the ones which were useful to him like the elemental stones and High-grade Qi stones.

“Take the black sword which is embedded within the rock. That is the best weapon present within the treasury. Take the incense burner within that corner too. They are the only two treasures which I find to be useful to you.”

Li Meng instantly put the sword and the incense burner within the Crimson Lord world. He was about to destroy the rest of the treasures when the Keeper reminded him of something else.

“Do you see that rock lying at the end of the last pile?” Li Meng turned around to find a big rock lying undisturbed in the last pile. It had no special features which distinguished it from other things in the room. It was too casual a thing to store in the Treasure room.

“What is it?”

“Potentially the best possession of the Mad-lions. It could be the pathway for you to brek-through the Chaos law level. Take it fast.”

“What is it?”

“We have no time to discuss. Just take the rock. I could feel a figure rushing in this direction. We need to leave the room.”

Li Meng decided to ask the Keeper at a later date. He took the rock and kept it within the Crimson Lord world and was about to inflict some serious damage to the treasury when a figure appeared within his range of view.

“As expected. You are here.” It was none other than Lion Ti. He took out a message talisman and burst it. Li Meng just smiled when he saw that.

“I guess we need to cut it short.” He took out a storage ring and emptied the content within it. Hundreds of spheres appeared within the view of Lion Ti.

“May we meet again.” Li Meng vanished from his view.

...................

“He is within the treasury.” The two emperors received the message from Lion Ti. They rushed towards the treasury, just to find a group of figures blocking their way. They were the same people who accompanied Li Meng during the attack on the coalition forces.

The figures began to swell up, and before the two emperors could act out, the ten figures ignited their core and exploded. The two figures used a curtain Qi to guard against the force of the explosion. They decided to analyse the situation at a later time and rushed towards the treasury, just to find a figure rushing out of it.

“Fall back.” Lion Ti shouted. A huge explosion took place seconds later and the scene changed.
