Chapter 390: Level Six Mystic Armor
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Actually, Lu Li didn't have to concern himself about what others thought. In this world, absolute power was the thing that ruled. Nothing else mattered as much.
Also, Lu Li had asked Jiang Qiling a favor by closing down the Teleportation Formation at the Clouds City temporarily after they arrived at the Northern Desert. Jiang Qiling would also ask the Palace of Peaceful Heavens to take down any people who teleported over from the Northern Desert.
Jiang Qiling was the daughter of the Family Patriarch of the Jiang Family, whose orders were not to be disobeyed by the Palace of Peaceful Heavens. If it so happened that someone went to the Central Plains and told Lu Li off, it wouldn't matter. Lu Li and Lu Feixue had already been exiled from the Lu Family. They were not breaching the rules by unifying the Northern Desert. The 12 Royal Families wouldn't mind.
Lu Li had no concern since he had the support from Jiang Qiling. To him, the Northern Desert was nothing but a small pond. No matter how far the fish in the pond jumped, they would still be under his control.
He had declared that he wanted to be the emperor of the Northern Desert because he wanted words to get out to the entire Northern Desert so the families could be prepared.
Du Zheng had once wanted to give the Northern Desert to Lu Li, yet back then, Lu Li felt the Northern Desert was beneath him and there was nothing on his mind except for getting back to the Lu Family. Now that he fancied the Northern Desert and that he had power and means to best the other warriors, he aspired to be the new generation of emperors of the Northern Desert.
Du Heng said nothing. He was wrestling internally. He looked at the kingdom's counselor, made some visual exchanges and made up his mind.
He took the lead and walked forward with the counselor, followed by a group of patriarchs. Du Heng got on one knee and shouted, "Du Heng, with the Du Faimly, is willing to surrender to Young Master Lu…"
The city was already bustling with noise before Du Heng could even finish his words. He bowed down as if to show he was sincerely willing to surrender.
"Buzzing!"
At the same time, Lu Li's body glowed as he generated more than 10 clones. One of his sleeves lit up as well. Ming Yu released Force simultaneously.
"Whoosh, whoosh~"
On Du Heng's neck, the Bloodline mark kindled. A small stamp flew to the sky and enlarged in midair into a small mountain. Du Heng's Bead of Life flew out, span around his abdomen, and radiated in a yellowish brown color.
After his Bead of Life showed up, everyone near the plaza felt the increase in gravity. Many warriors of low realms were pressed against the ground.
Du Heng didn't surrender. He chose to fight.
His Profound Meaning of Gravity was horrifying. He was confident that he could beat Yu Huashen and Ming Yu. As long as he could beat those two and Lu Feixue, he could take down Lu Li.
Then he would have the power to negotiate and he would have room for maneuver.
It was worse for him to surrender to Lu Li and then see his family being gobbled up bit by bit until it was destroyed than to be killed.
Lu Li had already known that Du Heng wouldn't surrender. The moment Du Heng knelt down, Lu Li and his gang had been ready.
"Mystic Armor!"
With a glow from a black mark on Lu Feixue's neck, a blue Mystic Armor appeared out of her body. It was a Mystic Armor of the sixth level.
Yu Huashen and Ming Yu cooperated quite well. They slapped at Lu Feixue's back at the same time so she could fly out directly towards Du Heng.
"Go~'
Lu Li felt that he was being held down by a mountain. His clones were under the same kind of impact. Out of instinct, Lu Li controlled his clones to fly to all directions but they were much slower.
The four of them had made a plan. Lu Feixue would be the first one to face Du Heng's first round of attacks while Lu Li cooperated with Yu Huashen and Ming Yu to kill Du Heng…
But the gravity was heavier than Lu Li had expected. Lu Feixue was close to Du Heng already. She held a red long sword in her hand and stabbed at Du Heng.
"Hmm!"
Du Heng reacted very fast as he was at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. He cut at Lu Feixue's sword with a saber.
He was the one that released the Gravity Profound Meaning so he was not influenced. His move was as fast as a gale. Lu Feixue, on the other hand, moved very slowly and the trajectory of her moves could be detected clearly.
"Bang!"
Du Heng's saber cut at Lu Feixue's sword. The sword slipped out of from her hand under the pressure. With a swing of his saber, Du Heng aimed at Lu Feixue's head.
Du Heng's strongest attack method was his Bloodline Skill, i.e. the stamp. However, there were quite a number of Du Family people here, including Du Heng himself. He would be injured as well if he pressed the stamp down…
"Die!"
The counselor made a move. His reaction and speed were faster than Yu Huashen and Ming Yu even though he was under the influence of the attack as well. He had a horsetail whisk in his hands. He span quickly and rushed towards Yu Huashen.
The hair on the horsetail whisk transformed into tens of thousands of steel needles with a glow. Clearly, they were toxic. Anyone that was stabbed by this hair would die on the spot.
"Aunt!"
Lu Li rushed over from behind her. He had released his Fate Wheel, but still, he could only fly close to the ground. As he touched the ground, there were sparkles coming out. He knew that Lu Feixue was quite powerful in her defense and Du Heng's attacks were nothing fancy. Nevertheless, he was worried.
Apart from her eyes, nose and mouth, every piece of her skin was covered in the blue Mystic Armor. She looked like a goddess of war. She was not nervous to see the saber cutting at her. If the Mystic Armor of the Lu Family could be broken so easily, it wouldn't be so famous.
The gravity was horrifying so Lu Feixue knew she couldn't dodge the attack. She didn't move except for tilting her head a bit and reaching her hand up.
"Bang!"
Du Heng's saber cut at her shoulders. She was pressed down. The ground under her feet cracked as her legs were buried under the ground.
She didn't appear to be in pain, though. The saber couldn't cut through the Mystic Armor. She grabbed at the saber. The Mystic Armor covered up her entire body so it looked like she was wearing a pair of blue gloves. She grabbed the saber at once.
"Um?"
Du Heng was stunned. The saber he had was a Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact and it was very sharp. However, he couldn't break this lady's armor? Could hers be an armor of the Holy Grade?
"Bloodline Skill, Mystic Armor!"
Du Heng remembered seeing the dark glow on Lu Feixue's neck and the armor that appeared from nowhere. This was the legendary King Kong Bloodline and the Mystic Armor Skill.
During his pause, Lu Feixue had already grasped his saber. With a pull backward, Du Heng was pulled close to her.
"Lu Li!"
Lu Feixue shouted and seized Du Heng's body under a tight grip. Du Heng could not kill her since she had the Mystic Armor. She must hold onto Du Heng so Lu Li could tear him apart with the Blood Claw.
"Swish~"
Lu Li dashed over on his Fate Wheel which gave out sparkles under the friction with the ground. Once again, he generated more than 10 clones and charged towards Du Heng.
"Get lost!"
Du Heng was furious. He constantly hit at Lu Feixue's abdomen in a speed as fast as lightning. He didn't know why Lu Li wanted to be so close to him, but it was not something good if another person was holding so tightly to himself.
Also, there were more than 10 Lu Li and Du Heng could not tell which one of them was the real one. He had a bad feeling about this.
"Bang!"
It was as if Du Heng was hitting at a piece of steel on Lu Feixue's Mystic Armor. Under a fit of rage, Du Heng smashed at Lu Feixue's face with his head. The only place that was not covered up by the Mystic Armor was her face. Du Heng's move broke her nose and rendered her face bloody.
"Die—"
Finally, Lu Li made it. The real Lu Li emerged to the left of Du Heng. He had lost his mind when he saw Du Heng was about to smash Lu Feixue's head with his fist. Lu Li angrily grabbed at Du Heng's hand with his Blood Claw at once.
