Chapter 192: Crushed Them
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Du Ziling and two other warriors of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom were injured by Yu Lingxu. Du Ziling figured that he couldn’t get any treasures if he tried to take any by force, and he might just as well snatch some from whoever acquired the treasures after he got down to heal wounds.
Du Ziling clearly knew that something huge must have happened when the Golden Coffin flew away and that world-shaking roar came out. Hidden treasures of the Dragon King might have emerged as well.
The others were a no-show apart from Bai Qiuxue and Lu Li who got down safely. Of course, Du Ziling would doubt that the hidden treasures of Dragon King were taken by Bai Qiuxue and Lu Li.
Bai Qiuxue sustained serious injuries, but Du Ziling and his two other warriors had almost recovered. The three were all at the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm. However, on Bai Qiuxue’s side, only Bai Xiashuang and Bai Gu were at such a stage.
The three kingdoms had always being holding a grudge against the Thousand-island Lake. The two sides were enemies. How could Du Ziling not do anything?
Before they went inside the Tomb of Dragon King, the families had given out orders that lives of young masters and ladies of the biggest families could not be compromised.
No killing was not equal to no hurting. Even if Du Ziling were to destroy Bai Qiuxue and the others, the powerful warriors of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom could still protect him. What was there to be afraid of for Du Ziling?
Bai Qiuxue’s expressions grow cold as she saw the cold glares coming out the amorous eyes of Du Ziling. Before she could say anything, Bai Xiashuang bellowed because she couldn’t hold back her fierce temper any longer, "Du Ziling, what is your meaning? Who are you? Why should we share treasures with you?"
Bai Xiashuang had shouted with anger so she put little mind on her own words. The warriors on Du Ziling’s side became excited as they thought Bai Qiuxue and Lu Li really got the hidden treasures of Dragon King.
Bai Qiuxue was not in the mood to do any more explaining as she saw their greedy eyes. She said mildly, "Du Ziling, do you want to fish in troubled water? If you want to resort to violence, you must shoulder the consequences by yourself!"
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Du Ziling laughed out hard. He shook his head and said, "Bai Qiuxue, you are so badly injured. Why are you being so confident? I don’t bully woman. I only want half of the hidden treasures of the Dragon King. Don’t force to take it by force. You are such a delicate and pretty girl. If I really break off one of your legs or arms, you will find it very hard to find someone to marry. Also, my guys have been admiring you and Lady Shuang for a long time. What if they cannot control themselves and do…"
"Asshole!"
Bai Xiashuang was completely enraged, like a mother lion. The ring on her hand flickered and a beautiful bow appeared in her hand. The purple crescent moon mark on her neck also glowed. She was ready to take actions.
Bai Rong and Bai Gu also flew into rage. They all unsheathed their weapons, ready to do something. However, Bai Qiuxue calmed everyone down. She looked to Lu Li and said, "Young Master Lu, can you do me a favor?"
Lu Li shrugged his shoulder and said, "I am very pleased to do you a favor, Lady Qiuxue."
"Okay!"
Bai Qiuxue answered, pointing to Du Ziling and the more than 10 warriors behind him, "Break their legs."
"What~"
A huge commotion swept across the place. Bai Qiuxue dragged Bai Xiashuang with her to walk to the distance. At the same time, Bai Gu and the others on their side were asked to step back as well.
As Bai Gu and the other warriors were stepping back, their eyes flickered as they found it unbelievable.
Lu Li was only at the later stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. Why did Bai Qiuxue ask him to fight against more than 10 people on his own? More than half of the dozen of warriors were at the Soul Pond Realm, and three of them were at the middle stage.
Lu Li didn’t say anything. He would rather not to reveal his true power. What was more, offending Du Ziling would entail grave consequences.
However, on second thoughts, even if he didn’t do anything, Du Ziling still would take actions. So it was imperative that Lu Li resort the matter.
Since he must fight, Lu Li was ready to risk everything!
The ring on his hand lit up and the Mighty Heaven Halberd emerged in his hand. He slowed lifted up his hand and pointed at Du Ziling while saying, "I have received orders from Lady Qiuxue. Do you want to break off your legs yourselves or do you want me to help you?"
"Huh!"
A huge sensation seized Du Ziling’s side. Many warriors were shouting abuse. Du Ziling was astonished for a moment then his astonishment became rage. How could a warrior at the later stage of the Soul Pond Realm be so arrogant? Was he a fool?
"Destroy him!"
At once, Du Ziling waved his hand. The group of warriors at his back instantly launched forward. Lu Li stayed put. He did something same as the actions he took on the peak of the mountain. He extended his arms backward, moved his chest up and down, took a deep breath, leaned his head forward, opened up his mouth and gave out a shocking roar.
"Step back and cover your ears!"
As Lu Li extended his arms, Bai Qiuxue instantly shouted in a low voice. At the same time, she retreated at the top of her speed and covered her ears.
Even though Bai Qiashuang and the others were not clearly as to what was going on. Yet, seeing Bai Qiuxue ordering them with such seriousness, they quickly stepped backward and covered their ears out of instinct.
"Roar~"
A shout as the roar of tigers and dragons came out. The space in front of Lu Li rippled, and a surge of fierce wind swarmed forward which whipped the robes of all the people in front of him.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The more than 10 people all fell hard to the ground. They put their hands around their ears. Muscles on their faces trembled, and blood were coming out of their mouths, corners of their ears, noses, and ears.
It was as if the souls of all of them were stabbed by needles for several times at the moment. They were rolling on the ground with their heads in their hands, and howling.
"Swish!"
Lu Li made his move. He shot himself forward like a sharp sword. He swung his Mighty Heaven Halberd to cut at Du Ziling’s legs, lightly, though. Bai Qiuxue asked him to break their legs but not to destroy them. So Lu Li controlled his strength.
"Crack~"
Bones of Du Ziling’s legs cracked. Lu li once again swept his Might Heaven Halberd and two men were sent into flying. The bones on their legs were broken as well.
Lu Li flashed through the crowd like a ghost. He cut with his halberd as fast as lightning. Sounds of painful howling came after one another. In the time for just two breaths, more than 10 people’s legs were broken.
"Swish!"
Lu Li stepped back and stood there. He turned around to face Bai Qiuxue and the others. After he put his halberd away, he cupped his fists in front of his chest and said, "Lady Qiuxue, the legs of these men are broken. Do you need me to do anything else?"
Silence!
Silence fell on Bai Qiuxue’s side. Nobody said anything.
The reason was that their eardrums were still ringing. Many felt a tingling in their ears. They couldn’t hear what Lu Li was saying.
Not only them. It was the same for the warriors of the Heaven Martial Kingdom and the Heaven Cold Kingdom. Everyone was looking at Lu Li, stunned stupid. On their faces were shock.
"It was Lu Li who made that roar on the peak?"
Bai Qiuxue murmured, absent-minded, as if she had seen ghosts in broad day light. The loud roar of Lu Li had completely overthrown her perception of Wu Dao.
At the Northern Desert, there was a clear distinction of the Ranks of warriors. Basically, warriors of the lower ranks would find it incredibly difficult to kill ones of higher ranks, unless a warrior had very high-level Bloodline Skill.
For instance, the purple moon of Bai Xiashuang could enable her to kill warriors of the initial stage of the Soul Pond Realm under sneak attack if she was at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm.
However, it must be sneak attack!
Lu Li crushed a bunch of warriors of the Soul Pond Realm, just and honorable. Three of the injured warriors were at the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm no less. He made the others had no strength to fight back. He had crushed them, fair and square.
What was the roar? Could it be… high level Xuan Skill?
Yet, to Bai Xiashuang’s knowledge of Xuan Skills, there was no such freaky Xuan Skill of the Northern Desert, unless the ones of the Holy Grade. That being said, there was only one man of the entire Thousand-island Lake that mastered Holy Grade Xuan Skill, i.e. the Old Man of Heaven Prison. What was more, he had spent three years before he conceived the Xuan Skill.
If it were not a kind of Xuan Skill, then it must be Bloodline Skill. The problem was Lu Li had no Bloodline mark. Since he was not a Bloodline Warrior, how could he have Bloodline Skill?
Bai Xiashuang could not figure it out. Bai Qiuxue, on the other hand, thought of one possibility. She stared at Lu Li with her eyebrows knitted together. Then she mumbled, "Can it be a legendary… high level Xuan Skill of the soul-influencing category?"
