Chapter 356: Bad Luck Charm
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
There were more than 10 Lu Li and more than 10 beast claws, identical ones. Qiu Wenze could not tell the real one from the others as he was only at the Noble Lord Realm.
More importantly, Qiu Wenze never thought that Lu Li would be so bold, nor did Patriarch Four or Patriarch Eight or the onlookers ever saw it coming.
They finally realized that they were wrong, so wrong.
Qiu Wenze’s soul was trembling. He felt the danger of death in that beast claw. Lu Li was not Lu Li anymore. He had transformed into a horrifying beast!
Qiu Wenze was at the later stage of the Noble Lord Realm, which had some use. He reacted quickly. He took out a shield at once to protect his body and his head against the beast claw.
"Bang!"
As soon as the shield was taken out, it was crushed by Lu Li. His beast claw pierced through the shield and grabbed Qiu Wenze’s neck.
"How dare you!"
Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight finally came to their senses. They were distracted by Yu Huashen at first and were surprised by Lu Li’s clones. That being said, they were both at the Human Sovereign Realm. If Lu Li could really kill a person right under their nose, they would have wasted all those years on earth.
A ray of white light lit up on Patriarch Four and Patriarch Eight, then two white Containment Field showed up which suppressed the space in the Hall of Patriarchs.
Containment Field was unique to warriors of the Human Sovereign Realm. The space within the Containment Field would be frozen and anyone below the Human Sovereign Realm could not move.
Lu Li’s beast claw was on Qiu Wenze’s neck already, but Lu Li could not move anymore. Qiu Wenze almost collapsed onto the ground as blood spilt out from his neck. Qiu Wenze knew very well that if the two patriarchs were any slower, he would have been crushed to death.
For all those years since he was born, it was the first time Qiu Wenze ever tasted the smell of death, so clear and so definite. He was trembling but he could not move away because of the Containment Field. His eyes were filled with terror. He looked at Lu Li at his face and at his cold and silver eyes. Qiu Wenze no longer treated Lu Li as a young man, as his nephew. He regarded Lu Li as a demon, as a human-shaped Xuan Beast.
"Whoosh!"
Patriarch Eight smashed Yu Huashen away and then hit Lu Li at his left shoulder and smashed him away as well.
"Poof~"
Neither Yu Huashen nor Lu Li could take the hit from a Human Sovereign Realm warrior. They were both knocked into flying and spat out blood. They rolled around in the yard and Yu Huashen hit against a wall.
"Whew, whew…"
The Containment Field was lifted so Qiu Wenze could breathe again. He felt feeble on his legs and he fell to the ground. Then he suddenly realized something. He stood up, covered his neck and then hysterically shouted, "Lu Li, you want to kill me? You want to kill me? Patriarchs, Lu Li wanted to kill me!"
Lu Li rolled on the ground. He stood up and grinned, but it appeared ferocious. He looked at Qiu Wenze emotionlessly, pointed at him with beast claw and said, "That is right. I want to kill you. You have a problem with that? Let us fight, fair and square and let our fight decide our fate, alright? Young Master Qiu, do you have the guts?"
"Um…"
Qiu Wenze was about to agree when he thought of Lu Li’s silver beast claw, the beast claw that was more like a claw of death. Qiu Wenze could not say anything.
"That is enough!"
Patriarch Eight shouted angrily and loudly like thunder. He stared at Lu Li and said, "Lu Li, if you don’t give me an explanation today, I will not let you off the hook."
Patriarch Eight really was angry. Lu Li hurting those escort warriors was already a breach of the family rules. Patriarch Eight found that intolerable as it was not as serious. But now Lu Li almost killed Qiu Wenze right in front of him. Qiu Wenze was the young master of the Palace of Gods. If Qiu Wenze really died today, the entire Palace of Gods would go on a riot.
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li raised his head and laughed. He laughed so loudly and for such a long time that it spread through a large area. More disciples of the Lu Family were alarmed.
After a while, he yelled back at Patriarch Eight, unwilling to admit defeat, "You will not let me off the hook? How? Do you want to kill me? My grandpa is the Family Patriarch of the Lu Family and my father is Lu Renhuang. I am the grandson of the Family Patriarch! You want to kill me? I have come back from so far away and I have endured so many difficulties along the way. This is how you are treating me? You want to kill me, fine. Come on. If I blink once, I would have wasted my life on earth!"
Lu Li shouted in such a loud voice that it resounded in a large area as well. His voice was like that of a dragon or a tiger. Many disciples of the Lu Family heard his words clearly.
"What!"
More people came swarming towards the Hall of Patriarchs amidst the loud noises. Lu Li’s words were so starling. He said in public that he was the grandson of the Family Patriarch and that Patriarch Eight wanted to kill him.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
More people flew over. Second Patriarch Lu Fenhuo and all the other patriarchs were alarmed. They came so quickly like sharp arrows through the air. The entire Mystic Armor Mountain was seized in a huge sensation. The story spread around in a horrifying speed. More and more people were rushed over to the Hall of Patriarchs.
"What are you doing?"
Lu Fenghuo and the other patriarchs flew down. They saw Lu Li was arguing with Patriarch Eight like a small lion and they were staring at each other. Yu Huashen and Lu Li’s lips were covered in blood. There was blood on Qiu Wenze’s neck as well. The wall of the Hall of Patriarchs had a hole in it because Yu Huashen landed on it…
Seeing that Lu Fenghuo came, Qiu Wenze started accusing Lu Li, "Second Patriarch, Lu Li wanted to kill me. He almost killed me!"
"Kill you?"
Lu Fenghuo and Lu Liantian looked at each other. Lu Li, the warrior at the Soul Pond Realm, almost killed Qiu Wenze who was at the later stage of the Noble Lord Realm? Did they hear it right?
Patriarch Four sensed that the situation was spinning out of control. He tried to calm everyone down by saying, "Lu Li, why are you yelling like this? You said nothing before you made a move. Do you think us as your superiors anymore? Let’s talk it out. We will make the judgment."
"There is nothing to say!"
Lu Li was stubborn. He shouted in a deep voice, "I want to see my grandpa. Go and ask my grandpa to come out. I believe that my grandpa will kill this bastard as well."
"Shut up!"
Lu Fenghuo seemed to have guessed what was going on after he took a few glances. He coldly shouted, "Lu Li, I have already told you that Family Patriarch is in closed-door cultivation and that nobody can see him unless he comes out on his own. How dare you make a scene at the Hall of Patriarchs? How dare you talk back at the patriarchs? You are defying the family rules. Someone come and put Lu Li into prison. The Hall of Patriarchs will decide on your sentences."
Yu Huashen was startled. There were already teams of warriors coming. Lu Li might still live even if he was taken into prison, but it was hard to say for him.
"I dare you."
Lu Li glanced over to the warriors coldly. They were afraid to move on. Then Lu Li extended his arms, took a deep breath and shouted toward the lake, "I, Lu Li, beg Great Patriarch to come and grant me justice. If the Lu Family don’t give me an answer, then from today on, I will no longer be a disciple of the Lu Family!"
Lu Li used the Dragon Roar Skill that he hadn’t used for a long time. The Dragon Roar was as loud as thunders. The space was trembling. It was even possible that everyone at the Mystic Armor City heard it.
There were some disciples of the Lu Family outside of the Hall of Patriarchs that were not of a high realm. Their eardrums were bleeding and they hugged their heads and rolled on the ground…
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~
Those patriarchs’ expressions changed. They had thought that Lu Li was totally different than Lu Renhuang in terms of their natures. They thought that Lu Renhuang was hard-edged and that Lu Li was gentler...
However…
This young man was even crazier than Lu Renhuang. When Lu Li made a determined effort, he would mind nothing else. He was more like an evil bad luck charm.
