Chapter 227 A Hero Saves a Beauty
Chapter 227 A Hero Saves a Beauty
Looking at the vast collection of classics, powerful magic treasures, and space magic treasures filled with a large amount of various Demon Stones and Primordial Stones, Lyu Liang was overjoyed and took out his Interspatial Bracelet to absorb the bounty.
“Thank you very much!” whispered Feiwu of Xuanli clan in Virtual Land, in a thrilled and excited voice.
“I don’t deserve it. I am also a member of Xuanli Clan. It’s my duty to rescue you. Moreover, those we defeated were not the elites of the Anye Clan. We cannot consider it a success, until we take down all of them.” Lyu Liang knew clearly that they only defeated some men on the periphery of its forces, and a few elites. There was still a long way to go.
“Anyway, I have gotten a small victory. I’d better retreat now. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, of the thirty-six strategies, fleeing is the best.” Lyu Liang thought to himself.
According their plan, after the rescue they were supposed to join the other two teams who were helping to deter the reinforcements of the other party. After everything was over, they could then retreat freely.
......
Lyu Liang’s team sneaked away from the encampment of Anye Clan. At the same time, the other two teams were facing totally different situations.
Yang Ying’s team were surprisingly very lucky.
The enforcements they encountered belonged to Dawn Breaking Clan. There were only ten of them. But each of them had the Peak cultivation of Devil Emperor.
Yang Ying had plenty of fight in her and Liu Jiawen was equally fearless. The fact that they were badly outnumbered, did not even bother them. As soon as they saw that the enemies were flying towards them, they immediately revealed themselves and launched their attacks.
They were relieved after they fought for a while. Their cultivation were high, but not among the best in Devil Realm.
Five hours later, a scream was heard as a Devil Soul was shot down by one of Yang Ying’s innumerable arrows. It seemed to trigger a knock-on effect. Soon after that, another two devil soldiers were slaughtered by brother and sister Liu.
At this very moment, Huangfu Gang arrived. It was definitely the last straw for the reinforcements of Dawn Breaking Clan.
Huangfu Gang attacked fiercely without stopping, like a mad man on a rampage. Less than five hours later, the rest of the devil soldiers were all killed, without any chance of fleeing.
Soon after their tasks were completed, they returned to their temporary camp, and waited for the others to return.
......
On the contrary, Zhu Yu’s team only encountered three reinforcements from Tianluo Clan. Zhu Yu and Nie Qingyun fought together against the two. Zheng Xuan was fighting against the other one, about a thousand feet away.
They were neck and neck in the battle!
The opponents they were up against were all burly and strong. They were grim and silent. It was their actual calmness that showed that they were powerful.
They did not get the upper hand until Wu Yingzhao and Bloodthirsty Shura came to their rescue, half an hour later.
The opponents were not dumb. They saw the powerful reinforcements joining the other side. One of them blew a whistle, and they retreated instantly.
Zhu Yu’s team were asked to restrain the enemies. Since they had retreated, there was no need to chase them right away. So they decided to return to the camp.
......
Everyone returned safe and sound to the camp. Lyu Liang set Huangfu Gang’s mother free and let them have their reunion alone, in one room. Others discussed about the problems they encountered during this mission.
Half an hour later, Huangfu Gang joined them. He bowed deeply to the crowd. Judging from his red eyes, he must have had a very emotional reunion with his mother.
“I have sent my mother to my portable cave residence. Now that my biggest worry has been removed. I will spare no efforts to help you.” Huangfu Gang said in his usual cheerful voice, but Lyu Liang sensed that there was more than sincerity in his words.
Lyu Liang then took out all the loot he had plundered from the Dark Night Family, and kept nothing for himself. No one wanted to take any of them, because Lyu Liang had fought very hard to obtain them, all by himself.
But Lyu Liang was determined to destroy them all, if the others did not accept the loot. So they each symbolically took a very small item. That was to say, eighty percent of the loot went to Lyu Liang in the end.
After that, they continued to discuss about the three powerful opponents they met.
“From what you have said about them, they may be the guardians of Tianluo Clan. The one with a purple beard, whom Zhu Yu fought with, might be the eldest son of the lord of the Tianluo Clan. His name is Tianluo Xian, one of the Ten Kings in Devil Realm, and his nickname is Purple Rakshasa.” Huangfu Gang said, seriously.
The Ten Kings in Devil Realm was not an organization, but a list of honor. Whoever was on the list, was a grandmaster in Devil Realm.
“Four of them belong to Anye Clan, including the lord of Anye Clan, Dark Night Shenyang. The reason why we were able to win this battle so easily, is because most of the powerful ones were not here. ” explained Huangfu Gang. “Sure enough, the most powerful house in Devil Realm is not that vulnerable from what I have seen.” Lyu Liang thought to himself.
Since the rescue was a success, they began to talk about what they should do next. Zhu Yu gave his suggestion, “The clues of Tai-Ah Sword must be in the Devil Realm. I am determined to stay behind to find it!”
“We rarely come to the Devil Realm, I should be able to get some Dirty-Evil Soil”, said Lyu Liang, who had been thinking about it, since he came here.
“We have ruined Anye Clan’s base. There is no way that the other houses would cut us the slack! Our looks are no longer a secret, as we have fought with them several times already. Maybe our images will soon be published by those powerful figures. They will surely hunt us down and kill us, using all possible means. So I propose, if there is no special situation, that most of us should get back to our mean battlefield at the frontier. It’s much safer there for us” proposed Huangfu Gang, who had been in the Devil Realm for the longest time and knew very well about the advantages and disadvantages here. Indeed, they would do well to think over this suggestion.
After a short discussion, Zhu Yu and Lyu Liang would definitely stay, because both of them had the art of the shape-shifting magic, and could also transform their auras into Devil Qis. They were determined to stay behind.
Liu Jiawen could also do both these tricks. She stayed after she made an impassioned plea. Nie Qingyu, who had a magic stone, said that he would not leave this place, no matter what happened to himself.
Actually this lad was the only one who had not exposed himself. Maybe he had anticipated a situation like this, right from the very beginning.
He was indeed very nimble and his battle power was quite great. But still, Lyu Liang did not agree until he made Nie Qingyun promise that he would behave himself.
The rest of them left the camp quietly, immediately after the discussion.
Huangfu Gang was totally right about everything, except for one thing. The other houses in the Devil Realm responded much more aggressively than he expected.
The team had left the camp only an hour, when a huge number of elites from Devil Realm flocked back from the main battlefield. They immediately started to do a thorough search of every inch of land in the Devil Realm.
Their camp was located in the wilderness. No matter how powerful their shape-shifting was, it was pretty easy to get caught. As an ancient saying goes, in for a penny, in for a pound. They decided to move to the market place of Anye Clan.
During the next three days, the whole Devil Realm was quite busy. There were always disciples, who wore different uniforms from the grand houses, patrolling the streets. Lyu Liang and his fellows’ photos were put up in all the busy streets. Under the photos was a statement: Whoever is able to provide a useful clue will be granted ten thousand magic stones of upper-grade, together with a magic treasure of Pure-yang!
This time, it seemed that Dark Night Family had gone all out. The bounty was really high. It was not hard to understand. Whoever was robbed, would be pissed off, and would never let the enemy go so easily.
Tense as the situation was, the four of them hid themselves away quietly. They checked into a fancy hotel called “Heavenly Devil “. It had twelve floors. The lowest three floors housed various stores. The fourth to the ninth floors were cave residences for living or cultivating. The tenth to the twelfth ones were specifically for VIPs. Ordinary people did not have access to them.
During this special period, Lyu Liang was quite surprised to find that there were human beings here. Moreover, they were at the special floors. After Nie Qingyun made a few inquiries, they found out that the humans were all from the grand worlds outside, and every one of them had a noble identity.
It was a brilliant decision to check into this fancy hotel. It seemed that every inch of the city had been searched by the Dark Night Family, including the wilderness. Compared to the situation outside, the market in the city was much quieter.
A day later, they agreed to inquire about the information that they needed. A moment later, Lyu Liang and Liu Jiawen went out, disguising themselves as a brother and sister from the Devil Clan. They turned themselves into someone totally different, all the way from their auras to their features. One could hardly find out, unless that he was as sensitive as the Heaven Peeking Beast.
Zhu Yu and Nie Qingyun went out later, disguising themselves as a teenager and his old daddy.
Lyu Liang was deeply impressed by the stores at the Devil Realm. Nearly half of the supernal materials and agrarian treasures were new to him. He had never even heard of them. Looking at the manuals, he learnt that some of them were used to cultivate Devil Soul and some to help build the body. It was really a tempting array.
The stores here were almost selling everything that one would ever need. The currencies on the price tags were Magical Stone, Primordial Stone and Demon Stone.
Lyu Liang bought several medicinal pills with a small amount of Primordial Stones, and then he stopped. At this moment his identity was that of a member of the Devil Clan. It would have arouse suspicion, if he, as a Devil Clan, was spending too many Primordial Stones.
Lyu Liang was looking at the various treasures that he had longed for, when suddenly a ruckus could be heard from the crowd behind him. Soon, several figures flew out of the hotel.
Lyu Liang did not mean to pay attention to it, because they themselves were in danger. It would be better if he ignored it. But everyone has a curious nature. There were two strangers near Lyu Liang, talking about the issue. One took the arm of the other one and asked, “What’s the fuss? Why is everybody rushing out?”
The other one answered excitedly, “Come with me, and you’ll find out! Haven’t you heard about it? An attractive lady from Xuanli Clan, who was supposed to have died, has shown up! Now Anye Wind, one of the Ten Kings in Devil Realm, is leading a group and running after her. They made an announcement. Anyone who helps to catch her will be rewarded!”
Lyu Liang was instantly shocked, sighed and secretly transmitted a voice to Liu Jiawen, “You should return...”
Before he even finished his words, Liu Jiawen secretly transmitted a message ahead of him, “Let’s go! I hate to see the weak ones being bullied! I know something about the story of your Xuanli Clan. You have my word! I will surely help you!” She was the first to rush out.
Lyu Liang forced a smile on his face and followed her out. When he rushed out of the Heavenly Devil, he realized that there were a huge number of people running along, including those whose cultivation were the lowest in Devil Spirit. From this, many of them were hoping that maybe, they could have the chance to fish in troubled waters.
There was only one goal in his heart. Lyu Liang planned to find the girl first, and then help her escape. So he spared no efforts to fly as soon as he rushed out of the hotel. There was no need to worry about where he could find her, because no matter how fast he flew, there were always people in front of him, running toward one direction.
“Black, can you sense a bloodline of Xuanli Clan?” Lyu Liang asked . He suddenly remembered what Black once was. Black was very sensitive to the sense of the aura of Xuanli Clan.
“Hmm, I was going to tell you. Stop following the crowd. Follow my instructions. Just fly to the front of the crowds.” Black secretly transmitted its voice, and added, “The opponents must be very strong! We should run away as quickly as possible!”
Lyu Liang nodded, transformed into an arrow and flew as straight as a rocket along the right side of the crowd.
...
A poor girl dressed in rags, was flying in the wilderness. Judging from her figure, it should be the said girl. Her cultivation was Devil Commander of Late-stage, but obviously she had been badly wounded, and her aura was very unstable.
Right behind her, were three men with thick True Devil Qi. They were definitely the most powerful ones of Devil Emperor.
“I’m quite impressed that you can run so fast, even with the cultivation of Devil Commander. But, you are starting to weaken. You can’t make it. Surrendering would be your best choice. In that case, I shall grant you an easy death.” roared a man, who was very tall, and had a square face. His loud voice made almost everything around him shake.
The girl did not answer and was still flying as fast as she could. But, suddenly, she spat out blood and fell. Obviously, she could not fly any more.
They caught up with her and hovered over her. The bald man sneered. Before he could say anything, his companion, who wore a green Taoist priest’s robe and had a black face, shot a vast quantity of Sword Qi directly at the poor girl.
Obviously, the bald man was shocked and frowned slightly. But still, he did not make any attempt to stop him.
The attack caused quite a stir. After everything calmed down, the three of them were startled and rushed down.
The reason being that there were only pieces of rags lying in the hole, caused by the Sword Qi. The poor girl was in the arms of a man in white, and they were flying away.
“What the hell is this restriction formation. Why doesn’t the cave residence work? And the Dreamy Crystal Vessel too!” Lyu Liang cursed, in his mind. Of course the man in white, was Lyu Liang . He transformed into his human form, grabbed the girl, and flew away with her, at the last minute.
He had planned to grab the girl, send her into his portable cave residence, and fly away immediately on the Dreamy Crystal Vessel. But to his surprise, the opponents seemed to have some special powerful restriction formation, so that both his cave residence and Dreamy Crystal Vessel could not work.
Confused and surprised as he was, he had to run at this very moment. He had never fought with them before. But judging from the thick True Devil Qi around them, Lyu Liang thought that they must be the most powerful ones in the Devil Realm. And moreover, from what he overheard in the hotel, there was a member of the Ten Kings in the Devil Realm. He surely did not want to fight them right now.
The three opponents were also surprised that Lyu Liang would show up here. So they picked up speed.
In this time of crisis, a huge amount of golden paper cranes suddenly appeared from nowhere, and rushed down toward them.
One of them shot several sword lights, only to find that the paper cranes had turned into a beam of soft light. The bald man scolded, “Don’t kill them. There is a restriction formation on them! Just spilt up, and leave them alone.”
Obviously, they were very experienced in the battlefields and had excellent teamwork. They nodded at each other, and went in separate directions. The bald man kept running after Lyu Liang alone.
The one in the green robe waved his hand, and then Liu Jiawen’s figure appeared about three hundred meters away. She was quite surprised that she was exposed so soon.
...
Lyu Liang flew as fast as he could, but the bald man came closer and closer. Lyu Liang finally stopped, laid the girl down gently right behind himself, and whispered to her, “Just a minute, I’ll take you away after I’m done with them.” Then he put on his Spirit Armor and turned to the bald man, who was about a hundred meters away.
“Lyu Liang! You are Lyu Liang! Hahn, how lucky I am! First I met a member of Xuanli Clan and now I met you. What a surprise! Now both of you will die at my hands today.” the bald man said loudly and excitedly, with fierce bloody eyes. “Were you the one who ruined our house? Very well. You will pay your debts today!”
“Anye Wind?” Lyu Liang thought to himself and frowned. He was not afraid to disclose his identity as a member of the Ten Kings in the Devil Realm, but it was a bad time right now and he was alone. It was very bad timing to encounter such a powerful opponent right now. But it was not possible for him to keep running. He was totally new here. It would be worse if he were to break into some forbidden areas.
“You are very powerful. I will show you no mercy.” Anye Wind said seriously. The True Devil Qi around him seemed to be boiling. A black, thin sword emerged in his hand. Then he used the sword to cut his finger and chanted the same spell that Lyu Liang used, “Sword-Blood Soul Guide, start.”
