Chapter 339: The Freakiest One
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
The Aries City was the largest city at the junction of the eastern and the northeastern part of the Central Plains. It had a history of more than 100,000 years and it had been under the control of the sixth-rank force, the Palace of Aries.
Throughout its history, the Palace of Aries once was a seventh-rank force for a while and then it was demoted to a fifth-rank force once. But the Aries City had always been under the control of the Palace of Aries which was a testimony of how resourceful it was.
He Yuan was trying to get an audience with the Master of Palace of Aries in the Aries City. However, not everyone could see the master. He Yuan was only qualified enough to meet a patriarch at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm of the Palace of Aries, the fifth patriarch, Mo Qiu.
Hearing He Yuan's statement, Mo Qiu frowned and said after some thoughts, "That young man really said so? He told you that he was the son of a warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm of the Lu Family? I know all the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Lu Family and none of them has a son this young. Some of them have grandsons of this age, though. Lu Li? I've never heard of this name."
He Yuan couldn't figure this out, either. If Lu Li was a disciple of the Lu Family, why didn't he just present his ID token? Everything would be clear if he had done so. Also, why didn't he get teleported here by himself? Why did Lu Li ask the Master of Palace of Aries to come to him instead?
"About 16 or 17 years old, Soul Pond Realm, no token, no King Kong Bloodline? Some warriors of the Noble Lord Realm are with him? Arrogant? You should face the consequences?"
Mo Qiu murmured. He could not make up his mind. If Lu Li only asked him to go over, it was fine. But why did Lu Li ask their master to go?
"Come, let's go meet the master!"
Mo Qiu decided to be prudent. The disciples of the Lu Family hadn't come out in more than 10 years now and suddenly there was a man calling himself a disciple of the Lu Family. It might be real. Lu Family was the supreme lord at the eastern part of the Central Plains. The Palace of Aries would face a platoon of problems if it was really a disciple of the Lu Family they offended.
Mo Qiu brought Han Yuan into a very elegant fortress to see the Master of Palace of Aries, Mo Ye.
Mo Ye was not old. He seemed to be middle-aged with a square head, big ears and bulk build. He was powerful, just like a master should be.
Mo Ye raised his thick eyebrows after hearing the account of Mo Ye. A glint of coldness arose in his eyes. He just thought for a short while before he said with a snort, "This is not real. I know all the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Lu Family. None of them has a son of such a young age. I can name all the Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Lu Family and I know about the disciples of the immediate Lu Family as well. There is nobody called Lu Li!"
"A fake?"
A trace of coldness arose in Mo Qiu's eyes as he said with strong killing intent, "Master, shall I go and deal with it?"
What Mo Qiu meant by dealing with it was to kill Lu Li. To impersonate as a disciple of the Lu Family was a felony, which Lu Li had done so arrogantly. Lu Li had named the Master of Palace of Aries to go over? Nobody could tolerate this.
"Wait a moment!"
Mo Ye waved his hand. He could not understand why Lu Li wanted him to go over.
Was Lu Li trying to get him over there and be killed by him after he revealed Lu Li's true identity? Lu Li wouldn't do such a thing unless he was tired of living.
"Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Lu Family?"
Mo Ye tried to recall all of them again. He went over the name of those Human Sovereign Realm warriors one by one in his head and wondered if he had left any disciples out.
After a while, he murmured in surprise, "Can he be that man's son? If so.. .if that man is married and has a son, then I think this young man is about the right age."
Mo Qiu blinked. He didn't quite follow and he asked with confusion, "Master, which man are you talking about?"
Mo Ye's eyes glowed as he replied, "The real sovereign among humans, the freakiest man!"
"Ah?"
Mo Qiu came to his senses. His expressions changed and his eyes flickered. He thought about it and said, "I really think it is possible if you are talking about that man. That man is missing for more than 20 years now and you really think that this young person is that man's son?"
He Yuan’s head was in the clouds but he was afraid to ask any more questions. Suddenly, a jade talisman in his hands broke and he shouted in shock, "No, something happened at the Mountain City!"
"Whoosh~"
Before he could quite finish his words, a black shadow came from the outside. Standing next to Mo Ye, he cupped his fists and said, "Master, all the Teleportation Formations are destroyed at the Mountain City. Words are that Song Family from the northeast sent over eight powerful warriors and they have put up a fight at the Mountain City."
"How dare they!"
Mo Ye stood up in an impressive manner and strong killing intent surged out of him that made He Yuan feel suffocated. Mo Ye soon yelled, "All the Noble Lord Realm warriors, listen up, get to the Mountain City right away. Brother Two, stay here at the Aries City. I will go to the Mountain City in person."
There were two Human Sovereign Realm warriors at the Palace of Aries. Mo Ye told the other one to stay in command at the city and mobilize all the other powerful warriors. It was a proof of how much Mo Ye was concerned about Lu Li.
He had to.
If Lu Li really was the son of that man and Lu Li was killed at the Mountain City, Mo Ye believed that nobody at the Palace of Aries could avoid getting killed.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
There were 23 men who flew out and all of them were at the Noble Lord Realm. Eight of them were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. Mo Ye came out with He Yuan and went towards their Teleportation Formation directly.
The entire Aries Fortress was burning with anxiety. It was the first time Mo Ye mobilized so many powerful warriors in years. Also, Mo Ye sounded really angry. Many people were discussing what was going on.
The 23 warriors arrived at the plaza. An elder warrior asked, "Master, what is going on?'
"Don't ask!"
Mo Ye rushed into a Teleportation Formation and shouted, "Activate the Teleportation Formation now. You go over to the cities near the Mountain City as well and then rush to the Mountain and protect a young man named Lu Li. Kill anyone that wants to harm him."
"Yes!"
The 23 men shouted and then rushed to the other Teleportation Formations. The Teleportation Formation at the Mountain City was destroyed but those ones at the other cities were fine.
Those warriors wouldn't spend a long time to teleport to nearby cities and then get to the Mountain City. After all, warriors of the Noble Lord Realm all had horrifying speed.
With rays of light shooting up, Mo Ye and all the other warriors disappeared in the Teleportation Formations. The city was swept by a huge sensation as people were trying to guess what was going on.
Mo Ye and Mo Qiu arrived at another Prefectural City nearby the Mountain City and then were teleported to a county nearest to the Mountain City. With Mo Ye's speed, it would take him the time for two incense sticks to burn at most to arrive at the Mountain City from that county.
After two teleportations, Mo Ye arrived at that nearby county. Mo Ye released his Bead of Life and rushed towards the Mountain City at horrible speed without waiting for Mo Qiu.
"You from the Song Family, how dare you!"
While flying, Mo Ye shouted. Song Family destroying the Teleportation Formations was already a taboo. Now they were trying to kill Lu Li? If Lu Li really was that man's son, the Song Family would be doomed regardless of whether Lu Li could survive or not.
The county was to the north of the Mountain City. Mo Ye flew at the top of his speed. After the time for two incense sticks to burn, he could faintly see the north city wall of the Mountain City.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Above the Mountain City, Song Fu and Han Wuqing were fighting. They really were sparing no efforts. They both released Profound Meanings. The space was cracking, and the terrifying qi and energy rendered civilians on the ground fearful.
Luckily, they both had a sense of limits. They tried to avoid from hurting the city down below or it would have been in a bloodbath for a long time.
"Stop it!"
Mo Ye shouted from faraway, as loud as a beast's roar. He spread out his qi and energy, making people feel like he was a sun.
"Human Sovereign Realm warrior?"
Song Fu paused for a moment. Han Wuqing was overjoyed. Mo Ye rushed over and shouted, "Where is Lu Li?"
Song Fu was scared pale. Han Wuqing shouted, "To the east, Lord, go there quickly. There are many warriors of the Song Family chasing after him."
"Very nice. You from the Song Family, wait for your Song Family to be wiped out!"
Mo Ye didn't attack Song Fu. He shouted and rushed on to the east like a shooting star.
"What—"
The city down below was boiling with excitement. The Master of Palace of Aries was here. Did it mean that the young man really was a disciple of the immediate Lu Family?
